Notice relating to the filing of the annual return and other documents for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 – Insurers of persons (life and health insurers) authorized to carry on activities in Québec Under the Insurers Act, CQLR, c. A-32.1 (the « Act »), every authorized insurer must prepare and send the Autorité des marchés financiers (the « AMF»), according to the form, content and date the AMF determines, the documents and information provided under the Act or requested by the AMF (the « required documents and information »). All required documents and information must be filed electronically via AMF E-Services. See the Appendices attached to this Notice detailing specific requirements for the documents to be filed for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. A complete set of the signed documents must be kept at the insurer’s premises so that they are available for examination by the AMF, if necessary. Monetary administrative penalties We remind you that each insurer is responsible for ensuring that the AMF receives, on the dates it determines, all required documents and information. Pursuant to sections 491 and following of the Act, monetary administrative penalties may be imposed if an authorized insurer fails to send the required documents and information to the AMF or if they are incomplete or filed late or if it refuses to communicate or provide access to the documents. Electronic submission of financial returns and other documents The E-Services Disclosure Guide (Insurers) explains the procedure for submitting files via AMF E-Services and provides instructions for, among other things, naming files. The guide is available on the AMF website at:
