Are TFSAs, RRSPs, GICs, and ETFs a mystery? Does investing in the stock market feel like a gamble? In Part I of a two-part workshop, this webinar demystifies banking jargon and guides participants through the essentials of mutual funds and ETFs and discuss the benefits of Canadian versus global diversification. In addition, this workshop will assess some of the most tax-efficient investments available, looking at various examples of how to increase one’s returns by reducing feeds and legally eliminating or deferring taxes.

Learning outcomes:

  • Understand the difference between saving, investing, and speculating.
  • Learn about the different investment assets (stocks, bonds, ETFs, MFs) and their associated risks.
