Executive Messages

"Wildfires, flooding, and storms across Canada reached historic levels this summer. As impacted customers and communities work to rebuild and recover, our robust catastrophe response capabilities again delivered outstanding support. From a financial perspective, these events had a significant effect on our underwriting performance, representing a more than 17-point impact to our combined ratio, which was well above expectations. Despite this, we delivered strong premium growth and solid underlying performance across all lines of business.
