Released on July 8, 2024

A mild storm season in Saskatchewan and strong investment returns helped deliver stable finances and affordable personal auto insurance to the people of Saskatchewan in 2023-24. This is according to SGI's annual reports, released today. 

"In 2023-24, SGI continued to deliver stable and affordable auto insurance rates for Saskatchewan families and businesses," Minister Responsible for SGI Dustin Duncan said.
