Frequently asked questions
Find answers to common questions about our savings and investment plans.
What are the key differences between a savings account and an investment account?
A savings account is ideal for storing funds you may need soon. It typically is considered a low-risk option and offers easy access to your money. An investment account is tailored for long-term growth and features a range of assets, like portfolios or funds. Investment accounts carry higher potential returns but come with higher risk as markets fluctuate.
What types of savings plans are available?
You can explore a variety of registered savings plans like RRSP, TFSA, FHSP, and RDSP, along with non-registered savings plans tailored to your specific risk tolerance, investment timeline, and overall financial goals.
What types of investments are available?
There are a wide range of investment plans available. Whether you’re working toward a short-term goal or planning for retirement, your advisor can guide you toward investments designed to help minimize risk. Alternatively, if you’re focusing on long-term objectives, you may explore options with slightly higher risk for the potential of greater returns over time. Your dedicated Gifford Carr advisor will craft a personalized investing plan tailored to your goals, timeline, and risk tolerance.
