About the E-PP

As a business owner or incorporated professional, are you looking for a financial vehicle that can outperform the RRSP to provide security for your golden years? Consider the E PP pension fund: the Executive Pension Plan designed specifically for business owners and incorporated professionals. At last, a pension fund for small businesses!

The Morneau tax reform of 2018 changed the rules and led to a scarcity of income accumulation and splitting strategies. Now picture your company sponsoring your RRSPs, making contributions that are fully deductible and exempt from payroll taxes.
