Asset location is about how your investments are taxed, and the types of accounts you hold them in, like RRSPs or non-registered accounts.
Why does it matter? Placing the right types of income in the right accounts can help reduce taxes and support your long-term goals.
Some key takeaways:
β
Registered accounts like an RRSP grow tax-deferred, making them a great choice for interest income
π Capital gains and dividends are taxed more favourably than interest income, often making them a better choice for non-registered accounts
π― The goal: Same overall strategy, but pay less tax on investment income
