Knowledge in Action: Team Meeting in Charlotte

We recently gathered in Charlotte for our annual meeting, centered on education, collaboration, and cross-functional learning. Teams from across the company shared insights to help strengthen and inform underwriting practices. We also enjoyed a night out together, making the most of our time in person.


Marketplace Moments

We had a fantastic time at the WSIA Annual Marketplace! Our days in San Diego were filled with insightful sessions, valuable conversations, and the chance to reconnect with familiar faces while meeting new ones. Even with a packed schedule of meetings, Intact kicked things off with a lively welcome reception. As always, Marketplace offered a valuable blend of business and camaraderie, and we're looking forward to next year.

Intact Insurance Specialty Solutions and Intact Insurance Environmental are the marketing brands for the insurance company subsidiaries of Intact Insurance Group USA LLC. Coverages may be underwritten by one of the following insurance companies: Atlantic Specialty Insurance Company, a New York insurer; Homeland Insurance Company of New York, a New York insurer; Homeland Insurance Company of Delaware, a Delaware insurer; OBI America Insurance Company, a Pennsylvania insurer; OBI National Insurance Company, a Pennsylvania insurer. Each of these insurers maintains its principal place of business at 605 Highway 169 N, Plymouth, MN 55441. This material is intended as a general description of certain types of insurance coverages and services. Coverages and availability vary by state; exclusions and deductibles may apply. Please refer to your insurance policy or consult with your independent insurance advisor for information about coverages, terms and conditions. Some coverage may be written by a surplus lines insurer through a licensed surplus lines broker. Surplus lines insurers do not generally participate in state guaranty funds and insureds are therefore not protected by such funds. The foregoing insurance premium amounts are general in nature. Actual premium amounts may vary based on specific risk characteristics, policy terms and conditions, and applicable regulatory requirements. This newsletter is provided for general informational purposes only and does not constitute and is not intended to take the place of legal or risk management advice.
