Results of the public consultation and orientations
In 2012 and 2013, the AMF held a public consultation on Internet
insurance offerings in Quebec. A total of 20 briefs were submitted
by various insurance industry stakeholders. After reviewing the
briefs, the AMF pursued its examination of the issues with the
stakeholders in order to understand their concerns better, observe
the development of the technology and express its opinion as to the
adequacy of the current regulatory framework and how best to treat
Internet insurance offerings.
