Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP)

An RRSP is a tax-friendly way to build your savings for the future. It helps people plan for retirement. You can deduct contributions from your taxable income. This offers both short-term and long-term financial benefits.

What is an RRSP?

An RRSP is a savings plan registered by the government – it provides a great opportunity for people to invest in their retirement wisely. Contributions are tax-deductible and investments within the plan grow tax-free until withdrawal. This helps your savings grow faster. That is why most Canadians open an RRSP to lock in financial stability after you leave the workforce.

Explore Types of RRSP solutions

Several types of RRSPs are available to accommodate different financial goals. There are solutions for both individual investors and those seeking group plans. Understanding each option helps in making the right decisions about long-term savings strategies.

Individual RRSP

An Individual RRSP is the most common type. It lets one account holder contribute based on their income. The investment earnings stay tax-free until you take out the funds. It provides flexibility and control over retirement savings.

Spousal RRSP

A Spousal RRSP allows one spouse to contribute to an account in the other’s name. This strategy helps lower tax bills by spreading retirement income evenly between both partners. It helps households where one person earns much more than the other.

Group RRSP

Employers offer Group RRSPs as part of workplace benefits. Contributions are deducted directly from payroll, making it convenient to save for retirement. Employers might match some contributions and boost the plan’s value over time.
