RRSP and Pensions 

Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and other Government benefits upon retairment can not guarantee for you as much funding as you would need upon retairnment. If you want to insure your gold years, you should learn about Registered Retirement Saving Plan (RRSP), CPP, Registered Pension Plan (RPP), Old Age Security (OAS), and Guaranteed Income Suplement (GIS). You can find out here why RRSP is important to you, how you can collect tax-free money for your first home down payment, what spousal RRSP, tax deffered investments, and income spliting are.

New Law Provides Creditor Protection For RRSPs, DPSPs, And RRIFs 
July 18, 2008  Having assets seized due to bankruptcy proceedings is a real concern for many investors, particularly small business owners who might see a significant part of their savings seized. 

Working: New Way To Remain In Shape? 
September 1, 2007  According to a CROP survey carried out within the framework of the 2007 AXA Retirement Scope, more than 10% of active Canadians (those who hold a job), consider working after retirement a good way to remain healthy. 

"Pension Sharing" 
November 20, 2005  Married or common-law couples who are both at least 60 years of age, and who receive Canada Pension Plan (CPP) retirement pensions can share their pension benefits on the portion of the benefit earned during their life as a family. This may result in tax savings. If only one contributes to CPP, they share that one pension. The amount of overall benefits doesn't depend on pension sharing. 

Increasing Canada Pension Funding Deficit from $160 Billion to $190 Billion 
November 9, 2005  Certified General Accountants Association has published an article about growing deficit of corporate Canadian pensions. Retirement planning is an important aspect in the life of every family.

Planning Is Essential! 
March 10, 2005  Have you thought about whether you will have enough money during your retirement to do the things you want to do? Or have you seriously considered what you want to do when you do retire? Sometimes the most difficult part is getting started – defining your lifestyle goals before trying to figure out what viable financial decisions you have to make to get there. 

Are You Taking Advantage Of Your RRSP?

Lower Your Tax Bill With A Spousal RRSP 
January 20, 2005  Lowering your tax bill should be a primary goal in any financial plan, allowing you to free up money for the more important things in life such as retirement savings or funding a child's education. If you are married, one of the most effective ways to reduce your tax bill is to use an income splitting strategy to move income from the spouse in a high tax bracket to the spouse in a lower tax bracket. Contributing to a Spousal RRSP is one such strategy. 

Feeling The Pressure This RRSP Season? 
January 13, 2005  RRSP season is once again upon us, and again investors are facing critical decisions about where to invest their money.

It doesn't take long to build up a significant amount of contribution room, and this unused room represents a great tax-savings opportunity. 

Time for a Check-Up? 
November 18, 2004  As we rapidly approach another RRSP season, it’s again time to take stock of the year that was and see what effect it had on your portfolio. It’s been an interesting year. Canadian Equities and Income trusts again did well, while the soaring loonie (or plummeting greenback, depending on how you view it) once more put the brakes on the performance of U.S. investments held in Canadian dollars.

The solution: RSP-eligible mutual funds that actually enable investors to increase their RRSP's international exposure beyond the 30% foreign content limit.  

Understanding the ABCs of Mutual Fund RRSPs 
October 28, 2003  Imagine a scenario in which (depending on your tax bracket) the Canadian government pays you almost half (depending on your tax bracket) of the money you require to make an investment in a mutual fund of your choice. Then when you’ve made money off the mutual fund, either through interest earned in a fixed-income fund, or capital gains generated by your equity fund, the government tells you that you don’t have to pay tax on it. 

The Turtle Beats the Hare Every Time with RRSPs 
October 9, 2003  One of the best ways to maximize your retirement nest egg is by contributing to your Registered Retirement Saving Plan (RRSP) every year rather than skipping a few years and catching up later.
