How it Works
An easy way to grow your savings for retirement
Common Wealth is a modern retirement plan that gives you a TFSA and RRSP account with automatic investing to help you maximize your money for retirement.
How It Works
Plan
We’ll help you figure out how much money you need in retirement and how much to save to get there
- Your plan will estimate how much you’ll need in retirement, how much to expect from government benefits, and how much to save
- Your plan automatically adjusts your suggested monthly saving amount as you make contributions and transfer in funds
Save
Automatic saving helps you stay on track to meet your retirement goals
- Connect to your bank account and make monthly contributions right from your paycheque
- Save to an RRSP, TFSA or both
- View your contributions and any employer matching contributions
- Transfer an existing RRSP or TFSA into your plan in a few clicks
Invest
Our smart investing approach matches you to the risk-appropriate investment fund for your life stage
Your plan automatically invests your savings into a professionally managed, diversified target date fund that automatically rebalances and adjusts your risk over time – so you can set it and forget it, while the plan works to build your retirement savings.
