Toronto, June 14, 2022 – The Insurance Brokers Association of Canada (IBAC) is pleased to announce that The Portage La Prairie Mutual Insurance Company (Portage Mutual) has maintained its support of the Broker Identity Program (BIP) at the Full Partner level.
Portage Mutual’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.
“Portage Mutual is once again very happy to be partnering with IBAC in support of the Broker Identity program. ” states Portage Mutual President & CEO, John Mitchell.
“We are very pleased that Portage Mutual has renewed their long-standing partnership with IBAC. This investment demonstrates their strong support for the broker channel and underscores the importance of consumers receiving expert insurance advice.”
