TORONTO, Nov. 9, 2021 /CNW/ - (TSX: IFC)
Charles Brindamour, Chief Executive Officer, said:
"The strength of our business was again evident this quarter, with robust operating performance across the platform, despite an elevated level of catastrophes. Our people have worked hard to get customers back on track following many severe weather events. We are making great progress on the integration of RSA, with synergies being realized as expected. The acquisition is already delivering high single-digit accretion to NOIPS since closing on June 1, and we remain on track to generate upper teens accretion within 36 months. With a strong and resilient balance sheet and momentum in all segments, we are increasing dividends to our common shareholders for the sixteenth consecutive year."
