Mutual funds†
A mutual fund is a pool of money and investments (e.g. stocks, bonds and other types of investments) that are managed by a professional fund manager.
Segregated funds
Segregated fund contracts are a popular investment option, available only from life insurance companies. Similar to mutual funds, segregated funds are large pools of money invested in stocks, bonds or other securities. These contracts have higher fees than mutual funds because they also offer guarantees and some of the additional benefits of a life insurance contract.
Annuity products
An annuity protects you from the risk of outliving your money and helps to cover basic expenses in retirement. In exchange for a lump-sum premium, an insurance company – like Sun Life – guarantees to pay you an income for life or as long as the annuity contract specifies. Your income will be secure from both market and interest rate risks – and, if you buy your annuity with non-registered savings, you could also benefit from tax savings.

RRSPs for Business Owners
Your business may produce surplus above what is needed for your business or personal lifestyle. You can either retain in the corporation or remove and invest personally. Maximizing your RRSPs makes sense for most business owners given a sufficient time horizon.
TFSAs for Business Owners
Your corporation may produce surplus above what is needed for your business or personal lifestyle. If you want to save the surplus for future use TFSA’s may be a good solution, depending on your time horizon and current and future tax brackets.
