We inspire and enhance leadership qualities

WHAT IS YBC?

The Young Brokers Council seeks to inspire and enhance leadership qualities in its members. We encourage any IBAO member under the age of 40, or those with less than 5 years’ experience as a broker to join and participate in YBC activities. Interested in sponsoring YBC? Contact Brett Boadway.

Welcome to YBC!

We are a group of aspiring, talented insurance brokers. Here you will find new people to the business along with young brokers who’ve created more impact than some of our industry veterans. YBC is a great opportunity to be motivated and influenced by aspiring individuals who think outside the box and create innovation within our industry. If networking with these sorts interests you, you have found the right place.

YBC is growing stronger every year, and it’s no wonder since we are the future leaders of this industry. Come and join us as we help shape the broker channel by sharing your knowledge, learning from others and leaving your own personal mark.
