Governance
Bill 92 (An Act to amend various legislative provisions mainly concerning the financial sector), which came into effect on July 4, 2025, provides for the merger of the Chambre de l'assurance de dommages (ChAD) and the Chambre de la sécurité financière (CSF) to create the Chambre de l’assurance. The Minister of Finance, Mr. Eric Girard, announced the appointment of Ms. Chantal Lamoureux as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Chambre de l’assurance, and Mr. Mario Albert as Chair of the Board of Directors of the same organization.
Transition committee
The Minister of Finance of Quebec also appointed Mr. Richard Blain and Ms. Sylvianne Chaput to serve as independent directors on the transition committee. The two other committee members will be appointed by the Chambre de l’assurance from among the elected directors who served on the boards of the Chambre de la sécurité financière and the Chambre de l'assurance de dommages.
Board of Directors (CSF)
The board of directors is composed of eight members elected by their peers, representing the various fields of practice, and five independent directors appointed by the Minister of Finance of Quebec. These independent directors are selected based on their competence, expertise, and ability to provide an impartial external perspective, which is essential to the proper functioning of the organization.
It is important to note that neither the board of directors nor the management team is involved in the disciplinary process when a member is subject to an allegation of professional misconduct. The Syndic’s Office, which is responsible for conducting investigations, and the Disciplinary Committee, which imposes sanctions when necessary, are entities that operate confidentially and independently, thus ensuring the impartiality and integrity of the disciplinary process within the Chambre.

Delegates at the annual general meeting
Each year, up to 345 members can participate as delegates at the annual general meeting of the CSF. They must first submit their candidacy to be elected as delegates and have the privilege of representing their region.
The delegate positions were created in 2014 to ensure regional representation of the members. The boundaries established by the CSF divide the province into seven regions, each with a maximum number of delegates proportionate to the number of professionals registered with the CSF.
Delegates are a key link between the members and governance of the CSF. They receive the annual report and financial statements, ask questions, express their views and those of their peers on major issues facing the industry, vote on proposals falling within the Assembly’s powers, and elect the director who will represent them on the Board of Directors of the CSF.
Management team
The staff of the CSF is made up of nearly 70 employees under the responsibility of the president and CEO, who also acts as spokesperson for the CSF.
