Toronto, November 25 2025 – The Insurance Brokers Association of Canada (IBAC) is pleased to announce that Wynward Insurance Group has maintained its support of the Broker Identity Program (BIP) at the Full Partner level.

The sponsorship from Wynward Insurance Groupwill 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.

“Every day, we see firsthand that brokers are essential partners in helping policyholders understand and manage evolving risks, from climate-driven catastrophes to emerging liability exposures. Our support of IBAC and the Broker Identity Program demonstrates our confidence in the broker’s role as a trusted advisor and advocate. Wynward’s commitment to the broker channel remains more important today than ever, as Canadian commercial insurance buyers navigate an increasingly complex landscape.”  Ken Bolt, President & CEO, Wynward Insurance Group “Wynward’s ongoing partnership speaks to their deep understanding of the broker channel and the important role brokers play in serving Canadians,” said Peter Braid, CEO of IBAC. “Their commitment extends beyond support — it reflects a shared vision of a resilient and dynamic marketplace where brokers continue to be trusted, professional advisors.
