What we do
We are the national industry association representing a vast majority of Canada’s home, car and business insurance companies. On behalf of our member companies we advocate for property and casualty (P&C) insurance that is available and affordable to all Canadians.
As advocates for the insurance industry and the people who count on it, we seek to understand the challenges facing Canadians, the industry and governments so we can proactively prepare for the future.
How we’re making a difference
Simply put, we’re making a difference by helping make insurance better. That means better access, affordability and educational resources for consumers. Better proactive representation and leadership for the industry. Better access to credible, unbiased, consistent data for the media, consumers and government. Better access to the collective expertise of our members to help create policy positions, advocacy initiatives and industry standards that make a difference for all Canadians.
We want to provide Canadians with credible insurance information – when they need it – through ongoing consumer education and on-the-ground support in times of community emergencies.
