RRSPs and RESPs
Registered Retirement Savings Plans (RRSPs) and Registered Education Savings Plans (RESPs) have several advantages, depending on your age and financial situation, including:
- Tax-deductible RRSP contributions
- Tax deferral of compounding income and growth
- Based on a family’s net income and the amount contributed, a government RESP grant is available
- For families with children, a registered education savings plan (RESP) can help finance post-secondary education.
- When money is withdrawn from an RESP, the student typically pays little tax, due to a low income tax rate
- RRSPs allows for a variety of specific investment options
Working together, we can examine RRSP and RESP investment options in order to build a customized portfolio that takes into consideration your financial security goals, tolerance to risk and timeline. Contact us today to find out more.
Segregated fund policies
In a segregated fund policy, professional fund managers invest in a variety of individual securities. As a form of life insurance, it’s important to note that segregated fund policies have distinct advantages. These can include:
- Potential for creditor protection
- Savings on potential probate fees
- No trustee fees
Contact us today to discuss how they might strengthen your investment portfolio, and to receive an information package about segregated funds.
Note that any amount allocated to a segregated fund may increase or decrease in value depending on its performance, and is invested at the risk of the policyholder
