☀️A great day at the Emergency Preparedness Expo at the B.C. Legislature🦺

🦺IBABC was at the Emergency Preparedness Expo at the B.C. Legislature yesterday!

What exactly is an MGA — and why does it matter more than ever?

In this panel we break down how MGAs fit into the broader insurance landscape in Canada, how they differ from brokers and insurers, and why they’re becoming a key part of distribution, underwriting expertise, and innovation.

We’ll also look at new research on regulatory oversight and what’s ahead for the MGA space.

Moderated by Mashood Ali, featuring Brett Boadway, Pete Tessier, and Janet Sinclair.

🧑🏼‍💻Is insurance becoming just another online transaction, or does advice still matter?🤖

In the latest BC Broker magazine, IBABC's Executive Director shares why brokers continue to play a critical role in protecting clients through expertise, accountability, and real human insight.

As risk becomes more complex, it’s not just about how we buy insurance, but how well we’re protected.

Too many systems.
Too many logins.
Doing the same work twice.

There’s a better way 👀

The Connected Broker panel at this year’s Leaders’ Conference explores how the industry is moving towards simpler workflows, real-time connectivity, and a smoother experience for brokers and clients.

Because tech should work for you, not slow you down.
