  1. Competitive GIA rates and more!
    With many bond funds declining in value over the past year, clients are looking for fixed income alternatives to reduce portfolio risk while providing a principal guarantee and an attractive interest rate.  

    Equitable Life® Guaranteed Interest Account (GIA) investment options are ideal for clients who want to create an emergency fund or save for a special purchase. And we’ve recently increased interest rates to make our GIA options even more competitive! 
     
    A few reasons to consider Equitable Life for your GIA business:
    • The GIA advantage – a life insurance contract can provide many estate planning benefits.
    • Industry-leading compensation – we currently pay 40bps of commission per year of term.1 Many competitors only offer 20 – 25bps per year of term.2
    • Cashable option3 – allows clients to access their money in case of unexpected circumstances. Not many competitors offer this feature.2
    • Advisor rate discretion – advisors can forego up to 40bps of commission for an equal increase in interest rate, making our great rates even better.
    • Step Up Your Wealth Sales program – 100% of GIA net deposits4 are used to calculate the 0.75% bonus commission earned on net deposits for 2022.
    • Win-Win – our GIAs allow you to give the client a better interest rate while still earning a good commission.

  3. 2026 Elite Advisor Program
  4. The average FHSA balance is $3,899—Let’s help clients aim higher The First Home Savings Account (FHSA) is a powerful tool for Canadians working toward homeownership. With tax-deductible contributions and tax-free withdrawals for qualifying purchases, it’s designed to make saving easier and more rewarding.

    Yet, with a lifetime contribution limit of $40,000 and an annual cap of $8,000, many clients may not be taking full advantage. The average FHSA balance currently sits at just $3,899*, leaving plenty of room for growth.

    Equitable offers three straightforward strategies to help clients boost their FHSA contributions and get closer to their first home—faster:

    Set it and forget it with automated contributions
    Consistency is key. By setting up automatic monthly deposits of up to $667, clients can effortlessly reach the annual maximum of $8,000. Equitable makes it easy to schedule recurring transfers from a bank account, helping clients stay on track without the hassle of manual deposits.

    Make the most of windfalls with lump sum deposits
    Bonuses, tax refunds, or inheritances can be powerful savings tools. Equitable allows clients to make one-time contributions anytime, helping them catch up on unused FHSA room from previous years and accelerate their savings.

    Transfer from RRSPs—tax-free
    Clients who’ve already been saving in an RRSP can transfer those funds into their FHSA—up to their available contribution room—without triggering taxes. This strategy lets them benefit from the FHSA’s tax-free withdrawal feature while staying within their overall savings plan.

    Bonus Opportunity: Win big with the Close to Home contest
    From May 1 to September 30, 2025, clients who contribute to an Equitable FHSA will be entered to win one of two $8,000 prizes. Whether opening a new account or making a contribution, it’s a great chance for clients to get closer to homeownership.

    Advisors, your efforts matter too!
    You have a chance to win a $1,000 prize if the client you are assisting, in alignment with their unique homeownership needs, is selected as a winner. At Equitable, we believe that when we grow together, success is mutual.
    Don’t forget about Equitable’s user-friendly online application platform, EZcomplete®, or process an online transaction with ease using Equitable’s EZtransact®. These tools are fast, simple, and could bring clients closer to achieving their goals.

    Equitable’s Close to Home Contest: No purchase necessary. Contest period May 1, 2025 to September 30, 2025.  Clients enter by making a deposit to an Equitable FHSA during the contest period or by submitting a no-purchase entry. Two prizes of $8,000 CAD each to be drawn on October 15, 2025 will be awarded. The servicing advisor for the policy to which the selected entrants made the deposit is also an eligible winner and will receive a $1,000 CAD prize. For example, if an Equitable client is a winner of the $8,000 prize, the client’s servicing advisor wins a $1,000 prize.  Open to legal residents of Canada of the age of majority.
