What We Do
IWF Group specializes in the development of insured and structured finance solutions for Indigenous communities to address issues related to risk management and access to financial resources.
Insured Finance Program for Specific Claims
The specific claims process allows First Nations to pursue the settlement of historical grievances against the federal government as related to the non-fulfilment of treaty obligations and/or the improper administration of lands and assets under the Indian Act.
Asset Finance Opportunities in Partnership with First Nations
A “Band” as defined in the Indian Act is a public body performing a function of government in Canada and thus exempt from tax under Section 149(1) of the Income Tax Act. The s.149(1) exemption applies to income earned both domestically (on and off reserve) and internationally.
Financing Solutions for Equity Participation in Project Developments
Industry and governments are now increasingly recognizing that it is more advantageous to view First Nations as potential business partners rather than as potential legal impediments to commercial development.
Captive Insurance Structures
IWF Group team members were instrumental in legislative initiatives leading to passage by the Province of Alberta of the Captive Insurance Companies Act and related Regulations (together the “Act”), both of which came into force 1 June 2022.
