Wealthsimple

With a High-Interest Savings Accounts (HISA), get up to 3.75% interest on your cash. Zero risk, zero fees. Open a registered HISA as a TFSA, RRSP, or FHSA, and get all the advantages of a tax-sheltered account. Keep all the interest you earn with no commissions or management fees. (Or account minimum, so deposit as little as you like to get started.) Instead of worrying about the performance of fluctuating markets, you can rely on an up-front interest rate and know how much you’ll be earning in advance. And, unlike with GICs, you have the flexibility to access your money or add to your savings, whenever you want. T&Cs apply.

We believe more people should have access to the power of alternative investments — and now they do. While most alt funds have historically been reserved for institutional investors, ours are now available for all qualifying clients with at least $50,000 in investable assets — even if those assets aren’t held with us. Alt investments can superpower your portfolio and increase potential for returns. Since launching in January 2024, our private equity fund has returned over 30%. Our private credit fund has returned 16.2% since its launch in June 2023. https://lnkd.in/g-_NuQ8R
