Toronto, September 3, 2024 – The Insurance Brokers Association of Canada (IBAC) is pleased to announce that Sandbox Mutual Insurance has maintained its support of the Broker Identity Program (BIP) at the Full Partner level.

The sponsorship from Sandbox 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.

“We’re thrilled to continue as a Full Partner of IBAC’s Broker Identity Program in 2024,” says Shelley Willick, President and CEO of Sandbox. “At Sandbox, we recognize that brokers play a crucial role beyond just selling insurance. They are trusted advisors who guide clients through the complexities of insurance with their expertise and personalized advice. We deeply appreciate and honor the vital contributions brokers make to the industry and the invaluable support they offer to policyholders.”

“IBAC welcomes Sandbox’s renewed investment and their continued partnership,” said IBAC CEO Peter Braid. “We also appreciate their commitment to serving consumers exclusively through brokers, which clearly demonstrates their customer-first approach and their strong support for the insurance broker profession.”
