TERM DEPOSITS

                    Invest worry-free with a Term Deposit.  A Term Deposit (also known as a Guaranteed Investment Certificate, or GIC) gives you a competitive return and the flexibility to access your money after the term is over.  It’s a win-win.
                

Non-registered simply means the investment does not receive the tax benefits of registered plans. That also means they don’t have the same restrictions. We offer a mix of term lengths, deposit amounts, saving options, and competitive interest rates. You have access to a full spectrum of investment products, wealth management expertise, plus the personal attention that comes with being a member-owner.

You can also use your investment as security to obtain a better loan rate, and members are eligible for cash rebates through our Member Rewards program.
