Volatile markets can have a negative impact on any investment portfolio. When it comes to your client’s retirement savings portfolio, a sudden downturn in the market can have a devastating impact on their retirement plan.

To minimize the negative impact on these investments, why not protect their RRSP or RRIF with a guarantee using BMO Guaranteed Investment Funds (GIF)?

Why BMO GIF?
Unlike traditional investments, BMO GIFs provide a deposit guarantee, helping to protect your client’s original investment. BMO GIFs can also lock-in market gains and bypass the costly probate process* upon death while offering creditor protection**.

* Probate fees may not apply in Quebec.
** Creditor protection rules depend on legislation and vary by province. It cannot be guaranteed.
Any amount that is allocated to a segregated fund is invested at the risk of the policyowner and may increase or decrease in value. Any withdrawals will reduce both the Maturity Guarantee Amount and Death Benefit Guarantee Amount proportionately.
