An online seminar hosted by CPBI Saskatchewan

 

Please join us for an online seminar on February 28, 2024.

As the Canadian pension landscape shifts from defined benefit pension plans to defined contribution plans, we are seeing the challenges facing retirees as they transition from growing their retirement accounts during their working years to converting them to income for retirement.

In this session, we will look at the limitations of the current options available to retirees, and then look to the future at new solutions, including Advanced Life Deferred Annuities, Variable Pension Life Annuities, and other innovations designed to better support retirees in securing predictable and affordable income through retirement.
