Équité is a Canadian company committed to a more equitable world by tackling and reducing insurance crime.Insurance fraud is a serious matter and becoming more pervasive through technology and digitalization. Équité strives to detect and prevent insurance crime in support of all Canadian insurers through advanced analytics, intelligent best practices, and coordinated investigations. Équité was created by the industry to integrate the cross-insurer data analytics operations from CANATICS and the Investigative Services Division (ISD) of the Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC). Équité continues the leading edge investigations on vehicle and hard-asset theft & recovery services. Équité is greater than the sum of its parts – an independent, not-for-profit organization, expanding the reach and impact of both founding teams while augmenting data, technology, and investigations to serve as a centre point for insurance crime data and approaches across Canada. Based on the Insurance Fraud Bureau (IFB) in the UK and the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) in the U.S., we use a wide range of data and intelligence to achieve four objectives: 1. Help insurers identify fraud through integrated advanced analytics and investigations; 2. Enhance and enable cross-insurer investigations coordinated by Équité; 3. Lead stakeholder in vehicle and hard-asset recover & identification services; and4. Support law enforcement, regulators, professional colleges and other public investigative agencies to identify criminals and bring them to justice. We will also endeavour to raise public awareness about consumer scams: how they work and how to detect and prevent them. Our services are available to all insurance companies, offering access to fraud prevention, investigative solutions and a cross-insurer intelligence sharing hub. By participating in Équité, insurers are invested in diminishing crime in Canada, and protecting all Canadians against exploitation
