The Jevco Insurance Company has been sold to an investment company located in Toronto.

The Westaim Corporation has arranged to borrow $275 million Cdn to complete the purchase of shares in Jevco from Kingsway Financial Services.

Jevco is a major motorcycle insurer in Canada and will be sold to Westaim for about $263 million.

Westaim’s chief financial officer, Jeff Sarfin, told CMG today that he doesn’t think any changes will be made to the way Jevco handles motorcycle insurance.
