Children are our future and – if you look at the rising cost of post-secondary education – ensuring a bright future can be an expensive undertaking! An RESP can help. Invest in an RESP for any child in your life and watch your contributions grow on a tax-deferred basis. And, as an added incentive, the federal government pays a 20% bonus - up to $500 every year, to a lifetime limit of $7,200 per child.
The Canada Learning Bond and an enhanced Canada Education Savings Grant are available for qualifying low to middle income families.
Our account managers are also Credential® investment professionals, and they can help you choose from two RESP options.
- A mutual fund* RESP from The Ethical Funds Company® gives you access to world markets in a well-diversified and socially responsible way.
- GIC RESPs through Concentra Financial provide security, flexibility and very competitive rates.
