We’re A Different Type of Insurance Provider

HD Mutual is a mutual insurer, which means that we do things differently from the large, corporate insurers. 

We are proud to be a 100% Canadian-owned company, owned solely by its policyholders, and backed by one of the world’s most financially secure insurance networks: 35 mutual companies, known as Ontario Mutuals, providing strength, stability, and expertise.

When you become a policyholder with Halwell Dumfries Mutual, you become a member owner of the company. This means:

  1. You have a voice.
    When you purchase an insurance policy with us, you’re more than a policyholder. You become a member of our company and your vote counts when important decisions are being made. 
  2. You support your local community.
    When you pay your premiums, the money goes towards employing your neighbours, supporting the local economy, and investing in local projects.
  3. You are treated with respect.
    When you need assistance, you will receive help from a caring and responsive team of professionals. You will never have to deal with a call centre.
  4. You will receive great rates.
    When you have a policy with HD Mutual you are supporting the not-for-profit company, Ontario Mutuals. You can rest assured that your premiums are not going to a select group of shareholders.

The spirit behind mutual insurance is supportive and helpful. It’s about looking out for the greater good — and that’s what makes us different.

HD Mutual will be there with you from beginning to end.
From questions to claims, we do it all in-house.
Your insurance representative is your advocate and you are never alone.
We’ll be there for you.
