AGA Benefit Solutions is proud to announce the appointment of Claude Delâge and Michael Christian to its Board of Directors.
Claude Delâge, Associate Vice-President at Desjardins Capital (DC), executes value enhancement plans with the aim of accelerating value creation. She was previously Co-Manager of the Transatlantic Fund, a unique Franco-Canadian investment fund co-managed by DC and Siparex, its European partner. In that capacity, she supported French and Belgian companies in their expansions into North America.
Over the course of her career, Claude has been a member of numerous boards of directors, supporting entrepreneurs in their growth strategies. Upon her return to Quebec in early 2022, following a three-year stay in France, she was appointed to the Board of Directors and as Governor of the Quebec chapter of the Institute of Corporate Directors.
Michael Christian serves as Chairman of Risk Strategies, an insurance brokerage and risk management firm, which he founded in 1997. Headquartered in Boston, the company boasts over 5,500 employees and generates over US$1.3 billion in annual revenue.
Michael also sits on several boards of directors of non-profit organizations. He has served as Board President of Someone Else’s Child Foundation for nearly 25 years. The foundation supports youth causes across the United States, Africa and Central America, focusing on education, the arts, children living with disabilities, economic justice and collective action efforts.
Raising our standards of governance
“Forming a highly skilled and diverse board of directors, which includes independent, non‑shareholding members, is a natural step in our corporate evolution. As we grow, we need to raise our standards of governance to reflect industry best practices,” said Martin Papillon, President and Chief Executive Officer of AGA.
