Since its inception, the company has focused on developing small service teams to care for customers in a more personal way.

In which areas does More Than perform well?

More Than receives a top rating in the Environmental Destruction, Irresponsible Lending and Other Criticisms categories, due to a lack of negative records.

The above benchmark score that More Than is awarded on The Good Shopping Guide’s Ethical Insurance Ratings Table is the result of an evaluation of multiple ethical criteria. Find out more about how we rate.

In which areas does More Than perform poorly?

More Than was only awarded a middle rating for our criteria concerning Political Donations, as its parent company Intact Financial, donated more than our threshold for a top rating in recent election cycles.

More Than also receives a bottom rating in the Responsible Investment Policy category. This is because neither of its parent companies publish sufficient information clarifying its investment exclusions for controversial industries.

What can More Than do to improve its ethical score?

To achieve a higher rating in The Good Shopping Guide, More Than must improve its ratings in the Environmental Report, Political Donations and Responsible Investment Policy categories.

If it applies for Ethical Accreditation, The Good Shopping Guide would be able to offer some guidance on this to enable More Than to improve its score.
