Retirement Benefits Insurance Agency (RBIA) is an independent insurance and financial planning firm based in Oakville, Ontario, dedicated to helping businesses and families build lasting financial security. For more than 30 years, we have served owners, professionals, and families across the Greater Toronto Area with conservative, disciplined advice grounded in real-world experience
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Conservative
Disciplined
Financial Security
We believe financial security is built over time, not overnight. Our philosophy is rooted in three principles that guide every recommendation we make:
Conservative: We focus on protecting what you have built while helping you grow it sensibly. That means emphasizing quality solutions, managing risk carefully, and using strategies designed to preserve capital through different market and economic cycles.
Disciplined: We follow a structured planning process - assessing your current position, defining clear goals, and implementing coordinated solutions across insurance, investments, tax, and estate planning. We review and adjust your plan over time so it stays aligned with your life and your business.
Financial Security: Every decision is measured against one question: does this strengthen your long-term financial security? From group benefits and retirement plans to personal insurance and wealth strategies, our goal is to help everyone feel confident that their future is protected.
For us, it’s not just about policies or products. It’s about building a long-term relationship where you know exactly who to call when life, markets, or legislation change - and knowing that the advice you receive will always reflect these three core principles.
Who We Serve
Ontario business owners and employers who want to attract and retain talent with competitive group benefits and group retirement programs while managing costs and tax efficiency.
Professionals and families who want integrated financial planning that covers wealth accumulation, retirement income, risk management, and estate considerations.
Entrepreneurs and incorporated individuals who need coordination between personal and corporate insurance, investment, and retirement strategies.
Whether you’re just setting up your first benefits plan, reviewing an existing program, or approaching retirement and wondering if you’re on track, we meet you where you are and build from there.

Financial Planning & Wealth Management
We take a holistic approach that spans every stage of your financial life - from wealth accumulation to retirement income and estate planning. This includes investment strategies, tax-aware planning, cash flow analysis, and coordinating your insurance and investment decisions so they work together rather than in silos.
Group Benefits for Employers
We design and manage customized group benefits programs, including extended health, dental, disability, and life insurance, tailored to the needs of Ontario businesses. Our role is to help you enhance employee well-being, improve retention, and take advantage of the tax-efficient nature of properly structured benefits plans.
Group RRSP & Pension Plans
We help employers implement Group RRSP, pension, and other retirement savings arrangements that support employees’ long-term financial security. This includes plan design, carrier selection, ongoing administration, and employee education so your team understands and values the benefit you provide.
Personal Insurance & Risk Management
We provide tailored solutions for life insurance, disability insurance, and critical illness insurance as part of a comprehensive plan that reflects your family’s needs, income, existing coverage, and business situation. Our goal is to ensure that, if the unexpected happens, your loved ones and business are financially protected.
Why Clients Choose RBIA
Clients choose RBIA, and stay with us for several reasons:
Experience you can trust: Decades of advising Ontario businesses and families through different market cycles, tax changes, and regulatory environments.
Independent access to leading providers: We work with multiple insurers and financial institutions, allowing us to compare and customize solutions instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all product.
Holistic, coordinated approach: Instead of separate conversations about benefits, investments, and insurance, we connect the dots so your entire strategy works together.
Relationship-focused service: We see every plan review, renewal, and life event as part of an ongoing partnership — not a one-time transaction.
