Our History

What’s in a name? As it turns out, for LL Renaissance, quite a lot. We take our inspiration from the 14th Century cultural movement that begets our name. It was then a departure from the dark ages and a rebirth of classical values. It is now a reunion of many of Canada’s leading risk management veterans with the singular purpose of redefining the insurance buying experience. And for our clients, it is a return to classical business values of listening, trust and personal service.

Our core team of  partners has nearly 200 years experience in the insurance industry. Since the 1970s we collectively have:

• Taken over the Canadian operations of a former international brokerage firm and propelled it to one of the most successful Canadian firms – growing it to eight offices and more than $115 million in premiums.
• Reinvigorated the Canadian operations of a major international firm into a powerhouse in the Canandian market including the establishment of the first National Marketing Division.

Our committed relationships with a wide breadth of underwriters are built upon a deep history within the risk management world and assure our clients of the fairest prices for their insurance products.

Our track record for innovation and managing difficult to insure businesses is second to none.

Our philosophy at LL Renaissance is simple: ensure our clients get exceptional service with guidance from the most experienced team in the insurance industry.
