Intact Insurance Company Remains a Full Partner of the Broker Identity Program for 2023
March 28, 2023
Toronto, March 28, 2023 – The Insurance Brokers Association of Canada (IBAC) is pleased to announce that Intact Insurance Company has maintained its support of the Broker Identity Program (BIP) at the Full Partner level.
Intact’s sponsorship will support IBAC’s Broker Identity Program (BIP), a national advertising campaign that raises awareness of the significant value that insurance brokers provide for their clients – choice, advice and advocacy.
In addition, their investment will contribute to important IBAC initiatives including IBAC’s technology leadership, professional development of the broker workforce, and our strong and effective federal advocacy to maintain the separation of banking and insurance, which protects consumers and promotes a fair and competitive marketplace.
“Intact is pleased to continue supporting the Broker Identity Program at the full partner level,” said Louis Gagnon, CEO, Intact Financial Corporation, Canada. “We recognize the importance of this program to brokers, customers and our industry. We are grateful for our ongoing relationships with brokers across Canada in their critical roles as trusted advisors and customer advocates.”
“Intact has been a valued insurer partner of IBAC for over 30 years,” said IBAC CEO Peter Braid. “Their significant and ongoing contributions to our organization demonstrate their strong support for the broker channel, and their understanding of the essential role that brokers play in serving and advocating for insurance consumers.”
