History
Co-operative Hail Insurance Company Ltd. was established in
Saskatchewan under the Co-operatives Act in 1947. The
company was organized by farmers with the purpose of providing
hail insurance protection to producers at cost. In 1951
the company expanded coverage to Manitoba, and has operated in
both provinces since that time. To learn more about the

Capital Preservation
Though the company's primary goal is
to provide producers protection at cost, it also ensures protection
to its members by maintaining strong capital reserves and protection
of those reserves through a re-insurance protection program. With significant annual risk values the
re-insurance program provides protection guarantees for payment of
claims in severe loss years, but preserves the company's capital
reserves needed for a continued strong financial future.
