Acera Insurance Services Ltd. has formed a partnership with Navigate Benefit Solutions as part of its ongoing expansion of its benefits division. The transaction closed on May 14.
Navigate Benefit Solutions is a full-service consulting firm that has provided group benefits and group retirement savings solutions since 2002. The firm is based in Calgary, with additional team members located in Edmonton and Regina.
“We are excited to partner with a firm that shares our core values of excellence and putting people first,” said Tony Fairfield, executive vice president, Acera Benefits. “Navigate Benefit Solutions’ longstanding reputation for providing trusted advice and exceptional service boosts the expansion of our client-focused, forward-thinking team across Canada.”
“As an independent firm that is focused on building lasting relationships with our clients, Navigate Benefit Solutions has never compromised on the impartial and expert solutions we provide,” said Jason Probe, president of Navigate Benefit Solutions. “We are pleased to join an organization that shares these same values and corporate culture, as we look to enhance the solutions we offer to our clients.”
Acera Benefits, a specialized division within Acera Insurance, provides consulting services to Canadian employers seeking to develop employee benefits plans that are tailored, cost-effective and adaptable to changing health and wellness needs.
Earlier this year, Acera Insurance entered the Saskatchewan market through a strategic partnership with BMA Group. The partnership became effective on December 1, 2024.
This arrangement enabled Acera Benefits to extend its services to businesses across Saskatchewan as part of a broader plan to grow its presence across Canada.
