Intact Financial Corporation is Canada's largest property and casualty insurer, with roots tracing back to 1809 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Over more than two centuries, it has grown into an international operation employing over 29,000 people and serving more than five million individuals and businesses across Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Europe.
The company operates through a family of brands that includes Intact Insurance, belairdirect, and BrokerLink, covering a broad range of personal and commercial insurance needs. Its scale and longevity make it a significant presence in the markets where it operates, with the technical and data infrastructure that comes with managing insurance at that volume.
Intact has been publicly engaged on climate risk for over a decade, framing it as a core operational concern rather than a peripheral one. The company is involved in helping communities recover from extreme weather events, building climate resilience, and supporting transitions to sustainable industries. It has committed to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 and collaborates with governments on climate policy.
