Retirement Compensation Arrangements

Retirement Compensation Arrangements

Does your organization need to shelter significant financial assets for a key employee or group as well as their future generations?

In certain circumstances, high-income employers and individuals should consider putting in place strategies for executives that go beyond a standard RRSP or pension. If you have ongoing income that exceeds small business status, for example, expect to receive or provide a golden handshake windfall, or plan to eventually relocate outside of Canada, a Retirement Compensation Agreement (RCA) may be right for you.

TAX SHELTERED PLAN WITH HIGH CONTRIBUTION LEVELS

An RCA is a trust registered with the Canada Revenue Agency that allows your organization to make tax deductible contributions for the future benefit of individuals you designate. RCAs are commonly used to retain key employees or as an executive termination compensation package. They have the highest level of contributions to a tax sheltered plan allowable, and do not affect RRSP or RPP contribution limits. RCAs offer:

  • No age limit
  • Creditor protection
  • Participation by multiple individuals in a single plan
  • Large deductions that reduce/eliminate tax
  • Supplemental pension plan
