Built around relationships, not volume.
Velocity Insurance is a proudly independent, Alberta-based commercial insurance brokerage built for business owners who want more than transactional coverage. The firm was created to deliver clear, thoughtful insurance guidance without unnecessary complexity or barriers.
“After more than twenty years in the insurance industry, I saw how often business owners were forced to choose between scale and service. Velocity was built to deliver both modern capability and real connection, using technology to support the relationship rather than replace it.”
Clients work directly with an experienced broker who understands their business, anticipates challenges, and provides clear guidance in plain language, without the runaround of call queues or account handoffs.
Custom technology built in-house streamlines everything behind the scenes, so the focus stays where it belongs: on protecting and growing your business.
Your Business. Our Focus.
Velocity is commercial-only by design. One focus means deeper expertise and sharper placement for the businesses we serve.
Insurance Solutions
Tailored placement across commercial property, general liability, professional liability, commercial auto, cyber, builder’s risk, and directors & officers. Built line-by-line around how your business actually operates.
Claims Assistance
From first report through resolution, your broker stays with you, advocating for fair, timely outcomes and keeping paperwork out of your day.
Coverage Education
Plain-language walkthroughs of what your policy does, what it excludes, and where the gaps live. You should never sign something you don’t understand.
What sets us apart.
Velocity was built as an alternative to large corporate brokerages. Here is what that actually means for the businesses we work with.
- Proudly Independent
- Not tied to a single insurer. We shop the market, always acting in your interest, not an underwriter’s quota.
- Relationships, Not Transactions
- Every client works directly with an experienced broker. No call centres. No automated service. No queues. Our retention speaks for itself.
- Deep Commercial Expertise
- Over twenty years of hands-on commercial insurance experience across front-line underwriting, complex placements, hard-market renewals, and claims advocacy.
- Tailored to You
- There is no standard approach to managing risk. Each client receives a plan shaped around how their business actually operates, not a template.
- Personal Service. Backed by Technology.
- Our services are backed by advanced technology. Clients can expect efficiency and transparency in all aspects of their insurance program.
