Registered Savings Accounts
RRSP Savings
Save for retirement tax-efficiently.
Complete flexibility – add to your RRSP savings as often as you wish
Our RRSP Savings account is a flexible savings option designed to help make it easy for you to save for your retirement. You choose how much, when and how often you wish to contribute to your RRSP. You can transfer your funds to a higher-yield registered investment product – for example, term deposits or mutual funds† – at any time with no penalties or service fees.
And if you're running short on time when RRSP contribution deadlines loom, it's a great place to "park" your money to ensure you maximize your tax benefits. Then you can arrange to meet with one of our financial or investment advisors, to make the right long-term decisions for your retirement savings.

RRIF Savings
Ready money for your retirement income needs.
Complete flexibility
The ideal "transfer" account as you convert your retirement savings to income
A Registered Retirement Income Fund (RRIF) Savings account combines the flexibility of a savings account with the benefit of a registered product. It's a great source of ready cash when you don't want to "cash out" funds from other RRIF investments. You can accumulate funds in your RRIF Savings tax-free until you withdraw them. You might use the money for a holiday, major purchase, emergencies or to pay taxes. Manage your retirement income on your own terms; the amount and length of time your funds are held in the account can vary, and you won't be charged penalties or service fees.
No minimum balance required
Open term – keep the funds in the account for as long or short a period of time as you wish
