Gore Mutual’s CFO & Executive Integration Lead, Lyndsay Monk, shares our merger vision in “A New Era for Mutual Insurance,” featured in the Sept/Oct issue of the Advocate magazine. The article outlines what the proposed merger with Beneva means for brokers, members, and communities as we look ahead to 2026.

As we move through the next phase of our proposed merger with Beneva, Gore Mutual is focused on what comes next for our broker partners, our members, and the communities we serve.

Pending regulatory approvals and remaining member votes, the new entity will begin taking shape in 2026. This isn’t just about combining two strong mutuals—it’s about building a future-ready organization, rooted in community, driven by purpose, and built for long-term success.

What does this mean for you as a broker?

  • Expanded solutions: A broader portfolio of insurance products will enhance resilience to natural catastrophe risks over time.
  • Innovation and investment: Accelerated investment in customer-focused solutions and technology.
  • Mutual values: Continued commitment to member-driven governance and community impact.
  • Legacy and local commitment: Our Cambridge headquarters will remain a symbol of our heritage and ongoing commitment to the region.

We’re excited to work with you as we shape the future of mutual insurance in Canada—together.
