Wellington-Altus believes in the importance of financial literacy and embracing the role we play in supporting our clients and Canadians in this endeavour.
That’s why throughout March, in honour of the 10th Anniversary of Financial Literacy Month, our AWPG featured a Q&A with WA. We’ve shared simple, impactful financial planning information sourced from our very own team of advisors and wealth planners. Check out the topics below.
Financial Literacy Topics
A Registered Disability Savings Plan (RDSP) is a tax-sheltered savings vehicle designed to help families ensure the long-term financial security of a loved one affected by disability.
When people think about their wealth, they often picture traditional asset classes such as cash, stocks, bonds, real estate, or perhaps more unique holdings like art or coin collections. Historically, these assets have formed the foundation of most families’ wealth, however, in today’s digital world, another category of assets has quickly been growing in importance: digital assets.
A Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) is a Canadian registered investment account that promotes saving to support a beneficiary’s post-secondary education. Anyone — parents, family and friends — can open a RESP as a “subscriber” for the benefit of a child. Invested contributions grow tax free.
Launched in June 2025, the Canada Disability Benefit (CDB) is a new federal program providing monthly financial support to working-age Canadians living with disabilities. The benefit aims to reduce poverty and provide greater financial security for those who may face additional living costs related to their disability.
