An Individual Pension Plan is a registered defined benefit pension plan that offers many benefits for incorporated professionals such as doctors, lawyers, entrepreneurs, self employed and their employees.
IPP Investments is an actuarial firm entirely focused on implementing Individual Pension Plans (IPPs) for clients across Canada, building upon 20+ years of actuarial experience.
IPPs allow annual contributions over and above your RRSP limits for those over 40 years old, with higher contribution limits as you age or if investment returns are not achieved.
IPP contributions and related expenses are tax-deductible, allowing you to reduce your overall taxation expense. Plus, investment earnings in the IPP are not taxed until withdrawn.
You and/or your financial advisor decide on the investments made with your contributions within your desired risk level.
Unlike RRSPs, IPPs define a fixed inflation adjusted pension income which provides certainty and peace of mind for your future.
Your IPP contributions and assets are protected from creditors under federal and provincial legislation, including any assets transferred from your RRSP.
IPPs allow you to supplement your estate plan by ensuring your spouse will receive retirement income for life. Upon their passing, any remaining assets in the plan will be distributed to your beneficiaries.
IPPs are flexible depending on your cashflow, with no minimum contributions required (in certain provinces including Ontario), and the option to rebalance your savings at any time without tax consequence.
Unlike RRSPs, an IPP may allow you to contribute a sizable tax deductible lump sum to the pension plan to “buy back” previous years of service, allowing you to further strengthen your retirement assets.
