AFN Insurance Brokers Inc. (AFN) has partnered with CINUP, a division of the Rice Financial Group Inc. (a subsidiary of Jovian Capital Corporation (JVN:TSX-V)) to offer a convenient one-stop insurance solution to serve the distinct needs of Canada’s First Nations peoples.
AFN is a broker exclusively serving First Nations peoples and their public-entity (i.e.commercial/property casualty) insurance needs. CINUP, which is administered exclusively by Rice Financial, creates and administers employee benefits and pension plans, also exclusively for First Nations.
Both AFN and CINUP concentrate only on serving First Nations, focusing on their clients’ unique needs and regulations. In addition, the products and services available from both AFN and CINUP are distributed only through reputable brokers, ensuring the best professional insurance advice and counseling available.
“We have been looking for a way to bring more value to our First Nations clients,” Rice Financial executive vice president Fred Wing says in a press release. “Being able to offer reputable, proven, public-entity insurance to our employee benefits clients will do just that.”
Meeting the needs of Status and Non-Status employees for over 28 years,
CINUP is an industry leader in representing First Nations people. It offers an umbrella plan that focuses on a “bulk buying” approach to give groups a wider range of services than those available to smaller groups.
“CINUP is committed to enhancing the growth and prosperity of First Nations people by providing the best group insurance and pension services in the market,” the company says in a press release..
