Make your money grow while you sleep
Financial investments
Investments are tools that put your hard-earned money to work while you sleep. There are a variety of different products to achieve your goals and it is not always easy to choose the best combination of products to maximize your investment. Certain tools such as TFSAs, RRSPs and income splitting can also help you avoid paying more tax than you should.
Whether you are a beginner or an expert in financial investing, we can help you determine the right strategy to adopt to achieve your goals. Villeneuve Wealth Management has a team of financial security advisors to help you make the right choices for your investments and planning for your retirement. We also have a partnership with a financial planner to offer you the best financial services.
Types of Savings Plans Available
plans
The RESP, or Registered Education Savings Plan, is an ideal vehicle for saving for your children’s education. Indeed, although contributions to an RESP are not tax deductible, income within the RESP grows tax-free. In addition, the Canadian government offers very attractive grants when you contribute to an RESP for your children’s post-secondary education. When funds are used for education, withdrawals are taxed at the student’s tax rate, which is generally low.
The RDSP, or Registered Disability Savings Plan, is a long-term savings program for people with disabilities. It allows eligible people to put money aside to meet their future needs. Although contributions to the RDSP are not tax deductible, investment income within the plan is tax free until withdrawn. Additionally, eligible beneficiaries can receive government grants to increase their savings.
plans
Also called open plans, these savings plans do not offer tax advantages. We therefore generally use them when we have maximized the other types of saving plans. Please feel free to contact us to discuss available options.
Types of investments
traded funds
Fixed income investments include GICs (Guaranteed Investment Certificates), bonds and Treasury bills. These are low-risk investments that guarantee a fixed interest rate over a period of time, ranging from a few months to several years. Although the returns are often more modest than for other types of investments, they offer appreciated stability and security, because the invested capital is protected. This makes it a popular option for those looking to avoid market fluctuations while earning a secure and predictable income on their savings.
The common fund, or mutual fund, is a collective investment vehicle managed by professionals. It pools money from multiple investors to purchase a variety of assets such as stocks, bonds, or money market instruments. Mutual funds offer instant diversification, professional management and the ability to invest in different sectors and markets. Returns and risks are shared among investors.
traded funds
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are financial instruments that allow investors to purchase diversified baskets of assets that are traded on exchanges, such as stocks, bonds or commodities. The advantages of ETFs include their high liquidity and instant diversification, thereby reducing the risks of holding individual assets. Additionally, they generally have lower management fees compared to traditional mutual funds.
