What Intact Financial does

Canada's largest property-casualty insurer, also active in UK and international specialty insurance.

Sells insurance mostly through independent brokers, plus its own direct brands and BrokerLink, and earns underwriting profit plus income from investing premiums. Its shape has come from acquisitions, notably the 2021 purchase of RSA's Canadian, UK and international operations, bought jointly with Denmark's Tryg, and a US specialty-insurance business.
