What to consider before investing in GICs

Not sure which GIC is most right for you? Here are some factors to consider when choosing a GIC to invest in.

  • Plan type

    You can choose to grow your money tax-deferred or tax-free when you invest in a registered plan like an RRSP or TFSA. Learn more about registered plans and their tax advantages.

  • GIC Selection

    Fixed-rate GICs guarantee a fixed return for a specified period. Equity-linked GICs have returns linked to one or more stock market indices for higher growth potential. Foreign currency GICs and term deposits are investments held in foreign currency.

  • Cashability

    You can choose a cashable or redeemable GIC, if you want the flexibility of cashing out early before the end of the term.

  • Term

    You get to choose how long you want to invest your money for. It can be days, months or years, depending on your needs and investment goals. The longer the term, the more interest you may earn.
