Primerica Makes A Difference In Canada

Primerica is celebrating its 25th year in Canada, and even though we have made a huge impact, there has never been a greater need for what we do to help Canadian families become properly protected, debt free and financially independent.

  • 21% of Canadians do not have any life insurance.1
  • The average Canadian owes $9,000 on a line of credit and $2,400 on credit cards.2
  • 59% of Canadian employees would have trouble making ends meet if their paycheque was delayed by even one week.3

Since the company’s expansion to Canada in 1986, Primerica has experienced 25 years of record-breaking growth and currently ranks No. 7 in total life insurance in force with more than $11 billion.4 Primerica has paid $604 million in death benefit claims and administers more than $7.9 billion of client investments.5

And, while doing a great job for our clients, Primerica has paid a total of $1.4 billion in compensation to its representatives in Canada over the last 25 years.

“We proved,” said Primerica President Glenn Williams, “that this is a business opportunity that can adapt to any environment.”

With the current economic conditions in the world today, the opportunity is even greater.  One in five of Canada’s 1.5 million jobless workers have now been out of a job for 27 weeks or more6 and 11.7% of Canadians desire to start a new business in the next three years.7

Primerica has common sense solutions to these financial challenges.

This is the time of the year when people commit to new personal, business and financial goals, but the success rate is another story.

“Most New Year’s resolutions have the shelf life of a popsicle, and financial resolutions are no exception,” The USA Today reported this week.  “By this time next week, millions of people who resolved to save more, get out of debt and make their own coffee will be whipping out Visa cards to buy a white chocolate mocha at Starbucks.  Resolutions are abandoned because they require a permanent behavior change, such as giving up sweets.”

Primerica has the answers for people who want to change their financial future:

  1. We teach people how to make more money by starting a new business part-time.
  2. We teach people how money works, so they can get their financial house in order.

“The things we’re doing are going to revolutionize our company, and they’re going to revolutionize North America,” Primerica Co-CEO John Addison said.  “This company is what the world needs right now.  The future is Primerica.”

Primerica is the largest independent financial services marketing company in North America.  Our mission is to help families become properly protected, debt free and financially independent.

There is no time to start like the present, as we begin the first year of the second decade of the 21st century.
