Following the September 19, 2024 communication, we would like to remind you that holders of a nominee RRSP or LIRA/locked-in RRSP who will have reached age 71 by December 31, 2024 must transfer their account to a RRIF or LIF before year end.

In order to enhance our services by reducing waiting times and informational inquiries, we will soon introduce a new option in our phone menu.

Please be advised that effective Friday, October 18, 2024, the risk rating of several funds will change in Univeris. 

For the past few months, the Investia IT team has been working on something very exciting! We have developed a brand-new application protocol interface (API) that connects to your CRM (Salesforce, Power BI or Equisoft).  

We would like to remind you that if you paid this year’s Client Administrative Fees on behalf of clients, the second charge was made today and will be reflected on your pay deposited next Thursday, October 17.

As communicated by email on September 19, 2024, following the recent launch of the purchase option by electronic funds transfer (EFT) deposit in nominee accounts, we experienced temporary issues with this new functionality. 

As such, we are pleased to inform you that the issues have been resolved. We apologize again for any inconvenience caused.

As you are aware, a minimum annual payment (MAP) is mandatory for all RRIF and LIF accounts. In accordance with Section 146.3(1) of the Income Tax Act, Investia is responsible for ensuring that all minimum payments are made before the last day of the year.

Please be advised that Monday, October 14, 2024, is Thanksgiving Day and a statutory holiday in several provinces, including Ontario. As a result, markets and Fundserv will be closed, which means that no trading or settlement will take place on that day. We will resume regular business hours on Tuesday, October 15.

We would like to inform you that we are currently experiencing a technical issue with the display of market values for certain guaranteed investment certificates (“GICs”) in Investia nominee accounts.

More specifically, the various reports generated from Univeris may display an incorrect market value for GICs that have been internally transferred between two Investia nominee plans.

We would like to remind all those who have paid this year’s Client Administrative Fees on behalf of their clients that the 2^nd charge will be made on October 10, which will be reflected in your pay deposited on Thursday, October 17.
