LEARN ABOUT

Our history

Our illustrious member, Todd Rozon’s, father was a true broker of his time and believed that one of the best ways for brokers to succeed and prosper was to get together to discuss issues and processes of mutual concern. He believed fervently in broker dialogue and the sharing of information to better improve the operating efficiency of their offices as well as endeavoring to better understand the increasing complexities of the insurance companies and markets with whom they dealt.

And not only discussing business but enjoying each other’s company as well.

And so it was, in the early 1980’s, a group of like-minded brokers gathered over a two or three day period at the Rozon home in quaint and beautiful Alexandria, Ontario for what was believed to be, anecdotally in any event, the first meeting of the ‘Sunrise Group’ – the first group of its type in Canada. The name was changed to the Insurance Specialty Group in the mid- 90’s and was officially incorporated in 1998.

It is a fitting testament to the independent broker that many, indeed most, of the brokers in that original group are still part of the group today as the second and third generation and more importantly are still independent doing service to the Canadian public in a most fitting way.
