On January 1, 2026, Beneva completed its merger with Gore Mutual. The transaction received regulatory approvals from the Competition Bureau and other governing authorities, as well as endorsements from mutual members of both organizations and the adoption of private bills by the Senate of Canada and the Quebec National Assembly.

Gore Insurance Company (renamed from Gore Mutual Insurance Company following the merger) will operate as a standalone subsidiary alongside Beneva's Ontario-based Unica Insurance. Throughout 2026, Gore and Unica will integrate their operations and systems while operating as separate businesses. Gore's brand will remain in place during this transition period before converting to the Beneva brand, anticipated within one year.

Andy Taylor, formerly of Gore Mutual, has been appointed Executive Vice President and Leader, P&C Ontario and West at Beneva, with oversight of both Gore and Unica operations. The integration will proceed in two phases, beginning with the transition of insurance operations, systems, and workflows in early 2026, followed by the full integration of Gore and Unica into Beneva.

Norton Rose Fulbright advised Beneva on the transaction.
