Share redemption in case of a loss
Fonds de solidarité FTQ shareholders whose homes have been damaged by the flooding can ask the Fonds to redeem their shares.
Under the Fonds' purchase-by-agreement policy, as approved by the Government of Québec, certain conditions must be met and the following documents provided when requesting a redemption for a loss pertaining to a principal residence:
- The Fonds form titled "Loss Pertaining to Principal Residence," including the shareholder's solemn declaration attesting to the financial inability to pay the consequences of the loss;
- Proof of the loss;
- Proof of partial indemnification or absence of indemnification;
- Proof of the costs related to the loss for the repair or replacement of the assets damaged by the loss;
- Proof that all redeemable family investments have been liquidated and used up to pay part of the costs related to the loss or that the family investments are not redeemable.
All shares are eligible for redemption up to the amount required to cover all or a substantial part of the costs incurred for the purchase to replace an asset with the same characteristics. Shareholders who cash in their shares under this criterion cannot purchase Fonds shares for one year after the redemption.
