About the Board of Directors of the CSF

The CSF is governed by a board of directors composed of eight administrators elected from among its members (two in life and health insurance, two in mutual funds, one in scholarship plan, one in group insurance and group annuity plans, one in financial planning, and one member elected by the assembly of members) and five independent administrators appointed by the Minister of Finance of Quebec. This model provides the CSF with the competence, expertise, and independence required to carry out its mission of public protection. Designated according to their skills profile and based on specific criteria, administrators contribute to the proper functioning of the CSF and can take positions on issues that may have an impact on the exercise of the profession and the protection of consumers of financial products and services.
