Segregated funds are an investment product, similar to mutual funds, which are sold by insurance companies. Unlike mutual funds, segregated funds provide a guarantee to protect part of the money you invest. Even if the underlying fund loses money, you are guaranteed to get a portion or all of your principal investment. You have to hold on to your investment for a period of time to benefit from the segregated fund guarantee.
BCU Insurance offers plans to save for your retirement and for your child’s education. Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP), Retirement Income Fund (RIF) and Life Income Fund (LIF) are all options available to plan for your financial future and the future of your loved ones. The added advantage of investing into these plans through BCU Insurance is that we provide your portfolio with bankruptcy protection. In the event you or your company declares bankruptcy, the funds designated to your spouse or child as a beneficiary may not be seized.
