Registered Retirement Savings Plan
RRSP
Registered Retirement Savings Plan
A registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) helps you save tax-free until you retire. By investing in an RRSP, you can also generate cashflow for your current needs through tax returns.
Benefits of an RRSP:
- Contributions and investment income are not taxed until they are withdrawn
- Contributions are tax deductible
- Unused contribution room can be carried forward
TFSA
Tax-Free Savings Account
A tax-free savings account (TFSA) helps you grow your savings tax-free. It’s the perfect tool to save for a project like a trip, a house purchase or a new car.
Benefits of a TFSA:
- Investment income grows tax-free
- Amounts can be withdrawn tax-free and redeposited in later years
- Unused contribution room can be carried forward
IPP
Individual Pension Plan
The Individual Pension Plan (IPP) is tailored to business owners and executives looking to optimize their retirement income.
Retirement income generated by an IPP is generally higher than that generated by an RRSP and the annual contribution amount is established by an actuary based on factors such as age and income.
Benefits of an IPP:
- Tax savings for the company
- Assets grow tax-free
- Creditor protection
LIRA
Locked-In Retirement Account (LIRA)
A locked-in retirement account (LIRA) lets you transfer funds from your former employer’s pension plan to an individual plan so you can have control over your investments.
Benefits of a LIRA:
- Investment income grows tax-free
- Various investment options
Non-Registered Savings Plan
This flexible savings plan lets you set aside additional savings for your personal plans or for your retirement.
Benefits of a non-registered savings plan:
- Save for a life project or for retirement
- Continue investing after reaching maximum RRSP and TFSA contribution limits
- No limit on contributions
