Synex Business Performance expands with acquisition of Invessa

12 January 2021

We are delighted to announce that Synex Performance Group has completed the acquisition of Invessa, a leading independent brokerage firm specializing in property and casualty insurance for businesses and individuals.

The Laval-based firm is a key industry player and is bringing its team of over 70 to Synex. Squarely in line with Synex’s growth mission, this new acquisition represents a volume of $50 million in premiums, bringing the group’s total volume to $200 million.

Invessa recently received the Vertafore’s Kealy Award for excellence in technology. Synex Group and its other divisions will now benefit from collective know-how and synergy generated by our many firms.

The acquisition of this new division confirms our positioning in the property and casualty insurance market in Quebec and across Canada. We are very proud to have them on our side as we look to a very promising future.
