Our
Vision
At Innovative Risk & Financing Partnership Group LLC, we are a dedicated team of majority-Indigenous shareholders with an unwavering commitment to providing comprehensive risk management, insurance, and emergency resource solutions tailored to the unique needs of all Indigenous communities throughout Canada.
As a parent company, IRFG proudly supports a diverse range of companies that are committed to empowering and protecting Indigenous communities through specialized services and expert guidance. Our group encompasses the following trusted companies:
Aboriginal Insurance Services: Offering customized insurance products designed specifically for Indigenous communities, ensuring comprehensive coverage for individuals, businesses, and organizations. In many cases, Indigenous communities are not optimized for accessing affordable and sufficient insurance coverage due to high levels of risk existing within the community. In this case, communities can work with Aboriginal Emergency Response Services to help improve and mitigate those risks with the goal of obtaining fair and affordable insurance
coverage to protect their communities, their families, and their futures.
Aboriginal Emergency Resource Services: While AIS provides insurance coverage and insurance- related services, AERS is the boots-on-the-ground, delivering support and guidance on-reserve.
From risk mitigation to risk management training and education to post-loss claims support, AERS is there, every step of the way to equip communities with the tools and expertise necessary to manage present risks and future crises quickly and effectively.
Nativelands Specific Claims Group: Many Indigenous communities have millions of dollars worth of land claims that could provide significant benefits to the community. However, Canada had made the Specific Claims process intentionally complex and expensive to avoid having to shell out billions of dollars worth of compensation. Nativelands’ purpose is to provide support and resources to Indigenous communities interested in participating in the Specific Claims process through insurance collateral solutions that make accessing Specific Claims funding easier.
Nexiis Consulting: Once an Indigenous community has finalized its Specific Claim, the compensation awarded can create significant opportunities and advancements for thecommunity – if invested appropriately. Unfortunately, many Indigenous communities have not been provided with the education level required to build and develop sustainable and future-oriented communities, thus Nexiis’ job is to support Nativelands’ Specific Claims journey. Additionally, working in tandem with AERS, Nexiis provides communities with the guidance they need to properly invest in their futures through extensively-developed training programs that can help communities set themselves up for a brighter future for their children and their grandchildren.
Each of IRFG’s subsidiaries are independent entities with their own specific purpose, however, not one is able to operate efficiently without another. While AIS coordinates insurance policies, AERS handles the claims. And while Nativelands Specific Claims Group can work efficiently as its own entity, Nexiis’ support in building future-oriented community development strategies places the final puzzle piece in the Indigenous community development framework. At Innovative Risk & Financing Partnership Group LLC, we are committed to fostering sustainable growth, resilience, and security for Indigenous communities across Canada. Our experienced team works closely with our partners to deliver tailored solutions that meet the evolving needs of the Indigenous communities we serve. This is what we have done for the last 40 years and is what we will continue to do for many years to come.
