Consider Automatic Transactions
• An Automatic Purchase Plan (also known as a
Pre-authorized Contribution Plan or PAC) is a method for
making ongoing contributions to your RSP. Regular contributions
to your account give you the advantages of investing regularly in
up and down markets, while compounding interest. They also
relieve the strain of making a lump-sum payment.
• An Automatic Transfer Plan (also known as Dollar-Cost
Averaging or DCA) will enable you to gradually switch units from
one fund to another over a period of time. Automatic transfers
are used to smooth out the effects of fluctuating markets.
