All account types are available.
Product information, as well as all forms and documents, are available on our Advisor Corner and in our Document Centre. You can also find forms and documents within the Vesta platform.
The Registered Investment Account (RIA) is a unique concept in the industry, ideal for fee-conscious investors who still want guarantees for their peace of mind, while remaining focused on the long-term growth of their assets.
The RIA is an annuity contract offered by Canadian insurance companies. Investor deposits are kept in the insurers’ general funds, and the account mirrors the returns of one or more reference funds or strategies selected by each investor. It is available as a TFSA, RRSP and spousal RRSP, RRIF and spousal RRIF.

A segregated fund, or seg fund, is a type of investment administered by Canadian insurance companies. It is a deferred variable annuity life insurance contract that offers certain guarantees to the policyholder, such as reimbursement of capital upon death.

SmartSeries is a lineup of 9 target-date segregated funds offered by Assumption Life. It is also available with Registered Investment Account (RIA) plans.
Based on the target date closest to the year your clients expect to achieve their goal, SmartSeries follows a glide path that adjusts the underlying mix of investments and volatility, becoming more conservative over time to minimize risks as you get closer to your goal.
They are ideal for clients who want an investment strategy that grows their assets over a specified period of time and for a specific goal, and which provides the comfort of knowing that all the important aspects of efficient investing are automatically managed according to their goal’s target date.
