“GUARANTEE SHIELD”

The Guarantee Company of North America

The New Face of our Corporate Risk Products

Serving the needs of Canadian business professionals has always been at the forefront of The Guarantee Company’s commercial insurance division. As such, we are endeavouring to provide a more streamlined approach to our products and services for our brokers and insureds. To do this our Corporate Risk Department will be shifting to become the “Guarantee Shield Department.” This transformation will allow us to encompass products traditionally sold as 3-D and Financial Institutions Bonds, Non - Profit and For - Profit, Directors and Officers policies, under the new “Guarantee Shield” banner.

Effective January 2008, we are pleased to announce that our first Guarantee Shield product will be available – the “Corporate Shield Policy” – (Private Corporation D & O Policy). The market has shown that the changing needs of smaller Canadian companies are now driving them to seek D&O Liability protection. While our Executive Shield Policy will remain the cornerstone of our D&O liability product line, the new “Corporate Shield Policy” will appeal to small businesses.
