This question explores the Legal and Regulatory Compliance landscape in Ontario, specifically the role of FSRA. While RIBO regulates the conduct ofbrokers, FSRA is the provincial agency responsible for regulatinginsurance companies, credit unions, and pension plans.

Under the RIBO Level 1 Blueprint, a broker must understand the jurisdictional boundaries of different regulators. FSRA’s primary responsibility in the automobile insurance sector is to protect consumers by governing the rules, policy wordings (like the OAP 1), and rates that insurance companies are allowed to charge (Option C). Every insurer must file their rating algorithms and underwriting rules with FSRA for approval. This ensures that rates are actuarially sound and not unfairly discriminatory.

Options A and B are incorrect because RIBO licenses brokers, and the Fault Determination Rules are a regulation under the Insurance Act, though FSRA oversees their application by insurers. Option D is the responsibility of the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) and private data providers like CGI. Understanding FSRA’s role is essential for a broker when Consulting and Advising clients on why premiums change or how the Statutory Accident Benefits Schedule (SABS) is structured. A broker acts as an intermediary who must navigate these regulatory frameworks to provide accurate Information Management to the public. Knowledge of FSRA’s mandate ensures the broker can explain the "macro" side of the insurance industry, building trust through a comprehensive understanding of Ontario's insurance laws.
