published on September 2, 2026 by Lussier Insurance and Employee Benefits

Montreal, September 2, 2026 – Lussier is entering an important new phase in its development with the arrival of new strategic partners. Sagard Private Equity Canada and Desjardins are becoming shareholders alongside the Lussier family.

 

This transaction is intended to support Lussier’s ambitions by bringing on strategic partners who share its values, entrepreneurial vision and long-term commitment. It also marks a historic milestone for the organization, as this is the first time in more than 110 years that the Lussier family has opened its capital to external partners.

 

With their expertise, business networks and investment capacity, Sagard Private Equity Canada and Desjardins will help accelerate the company’s organic growth in Quebec and support its expansion elsewhere in Canada. The Lussier family will retain a majority interest in the company, while Luc-André Lussier and Caroline Lussier will remain at the helm of the organization and continue to lead it independently.

 

“This transaction marks an important milestone in Lussier’s evolution. The arrival of partners of the calibre of Sagard Private Equity Canada and Desjardins strengthens our ability to pursue new growth opportunities, support our clients across Canada and further consolidate our leadership position, while maintaining the independence that has characterized our company for more than 110 years,” said Luc-André Lussier, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lussier. 

 

With the support of Sagard Private Equity Canada and Desjardins, Lussier now has the resources, network and expertise needed to pursue its ambitions across Canada while remaining true to its entrepreneurial identity and Quebec roots.
