Insurance companies

The Insurance Companies Act is the primary legislation governing all federally incorporated or registered insurance companies in Canada. FCAC is responsible for administering sections of the Act designated as consumer provisions, in addition to monitoring the financial institutions’ compliance with codes of conduct and public commitments.
