Co-ownership insurance

IBC is actively working to offer insurance stakeholders information and tools to better understand condo insurance, the recent legislative amendment and settling divided co-ownership claims, so that they can, in turn, adequately inform consumers.

Settling divided co-ownership claims


See our microsite at co-ownership.bac-quebec.qc.ca to better understand this important process in co-ownership insurance.

The process for settling divided co-ownership claims

The process shown below (also available in the Settling divided co-ownership claims microsite) determines whether the damage suffered is covered by the contract of the syndicate, co-owner, or a third party responsible. It is based on the insurance forms suggested by IBC.
