GUELPH, ON – May 13, 2026 – Co-operators today released its 2025 Integrated Annual Report, Leading with purpose, reporting record net income before taxes of $937.4 million and $3.21 billion paid in claims and benefits to clients – results that underscore the co-operative’s financial strength as it works to advance financial security for Canadians amid accelerating change.
“As climate risk, affordability pressures, technological advancement, and more are reshaping the Canadian landscape, we remain steadfast in our commitment to advancing the financial security of Canadians and our communities,” said Rob Wesseling, President and CEO, Co-operators. “We are expanding and evolving our co-operative to imagine new business models, new opportunities for growth and new solutions that meet the changing needs of the people and communities we serve.”
Co-operators financial results were driven by improved underwriting performance, disciplined expense management and solid investment returns. The organization ended 2025 with $22.4 billion in total assets and $6.1 billion in total equity, supporting a robust capital position. The report highlights how the co-operative’s financial strength is translated into purpose-driven impact for its members, clients, workforce, while also benefiting Canadian communities and driving toward its vision of being a catalyst for a resilient, sustainable society.
“As a co-operative, we prioritize long-term sustainability while carefully balancing short-term results to ensure continued member value and financial stability,” said Karen Higgins, Chief Financial Officer, Co-operators. “Our strong capital position allows us to meet our obligations to members and make prudent financial decisions that benefit current and future generations.”
Building resilience through insurance, investments and advice
The report highlights how the financial leader is evolving its products to help clients rebuild with resilience, shifting from traditional models that simply provide coverage after an event to one that helps prevent future losses. With no added premium, TomorrowStrong® provides additional funds, following eligible claims, to support resilience upgrades such as wind, hail and fire-resistant solutions, alongside repair. In addition, their Comprehensive Water coverage, which is Canada’s first and only product that provides flood insurance to all levels of flood risk, including storm surge, continued to expand - 745,258 Canadian households, farms and businesses are now better protected by this unique coverage.
Co-operators has also expanded its financial services to holistically support its clients in building their long-term financial resilience. In 2025, Co-operators Financial Investment Services (CFIS) grew its mutual fund assets under administration to $2.33 billion (up from just over $20 million in 2020), broadening access to wealth planning, investments and advice across the wealth spectrum.
Investing with purpose
The organization is also leveraging a sizable portion of its investments for positive impact. In 2025, they directed 60.2% of its invested assets (roughly $8.75 billion) to impact and climate transition investments, surpassing its 2030 target of 60%. To help de-risk and strengthen the climate resilience of Canadian communities, Co-operators has established the Resilience Acceleration Lab, an innovative financing effort to demonstrate how private capital can help scale and accelerate much-needed climate adaptation and infrastructure projects across Canada.
