​REGISTERED RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN (RRSP)

Save for your retirement while reducing the taxes you're paying now.

Benefits of an RRSP

✔ Pay less income tax
✔ Borrow from yourself
✔ Investments are tax sheltered

 

What is an RRSP?

Your RRSP is a savings account dedicated to your retirement. The money you put into it is tax deductible and grows tax sheltered. Inside your RRSP, you can hold eligible products such as Term Deposits, Beem Market Connect Term Deposits, Mutual Funds* and more.


​How Does it Work?

You only pay tax on the money you take out in retirement and you can contribute until you’re 71. Money can be used early to buy a house or pay for school, as long as you pay it back over a certain period of time.
