What do brokers do?

Why choose an independent broker?

In Canada, it is highly recommended to have insurance coverage and in some cases mandatory.  There are several ways you are able to buy insurance.  One of many options is to use an agent who sells multiple products under one insurance provider.  Another option, you can buy direct from an insurance company which is similar to an agent but with limited insurance products.  Your best option with most choice is to use an insurance broker. Using a broker will provide many insurance products using many different insurance companies.  As a broker, we represent over 30 insurance carriers.  We are an insurance brokerage that is independent of any company.  We directly represent our clients and work solely for them.  We are not employed by any insurance company.  This is what separates a broker from any other purchase option.  We provide independent advice, offer fair pricing and we are always on your side.  In the event of a claim, we represent your best interest.  A broker will always help you in a claims settlement.  Furthermore, insurance brokers will custom design an insurance policy that solely meets your needs.  It’s simply what we do best.
