The Canadian Association of Independent Life Brokerage Agencies (CAILBA) will include, as its members, a majority of the country’s life and health insurance brokerage agencies. Its mandate will be to lobby provincial and federal legislative issues affecting the industry, and establish uniform standards within the industry for efficient information processing. It will also provide an effective forum for networking and relationship building among members, insurance companies and industry vendors.
 
Purpose

The Canadian Association of Independent Life Brokerage Agencies (CAILBA) has been organized by agencies who understand that some things which must be done to protect and improve the place of life brokerage agencies in the socio-economic system, must be done collectively. CAILBA’s purposes are:

• To foster and expand the responsible and effective distribution of life and health insurance and related financial services for the benefit of the brokers, agents, companies and consumers that are serviced by agencies;
• To increase the knowledge of members regarding the lawful, efficient and profitable applications of technology and systems for agency management;
• To promote practices, regulations, and legislation in the best interest of life brokerage agencies, producing agents and to better serve consumers;
• To provide a legally constituted medium through which members may deal with common concerns and co-ordinate their collective efforts;
• To work with other organizations in the interest of the insurance industry.
