List of Manitoba Long-term Disability Insurance Companies (2025)

What is a long-term disability insurance company?

In Manitoba, a long-term disability (LTD) insurance company is a financial institution that provides long-term disability insurance products and services to individuals, businesses, and other organizations. These companies tend to offer various types of insurance policies, such as life insurance, health insurance, critical illness insurance, auto insurance, home insurance, mortgage insurance, and commercial insurance, among others.

Insurance companies are regulated by provincial and territorial governments, which establish rules and guidelines that insurers must follow to ensure they operate fairly and responsibly. The regulations also ensure that insurance companies maintain sufficient financial resources to meet their obligations to policyholders.

How do insurance companies make money?

Insurance companies in Manitoba are typically organized as corporations and are owned by shareholders. They generate revenue by charging premiums for insurance policies and investing the premiums they receive to generate additional income. The profits earned by insurance companies are usually distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends.

In addition to money earned through premiums, insurance companies make profit by denying LTD claims and benefits, often for people who are legitimately disabled and can’t work due to injury or illness.
