The Annual Statement on Market Conduct ("the Annual Statement") was introduced in 2017 by the Canadian Council of Insurance Regulators (CCIR) in order for the insurance regulators across Canada to receive detailed information about the marketplace and insurers’ practices.

The requirement to complete and file the information collected through the Annual Statement is based on the authority of each of the provincial and territorial insurance regulators to collect such information from insurers within their jurisdiction.

The Autorité des marchés financiers is the designated service provider for all CCIR regulators. Therefore, the AMF collects the Annual Statement in the name of all regulators. The filing of the Annual Statement must be done through the AMF E-Services.
