Plan Sponsor Services
The Group Pensions Department
listens to clients' needs and wish to serve them well. Our philosophy
is to establish a long-lasting relationship with you, based on service
that meets your needs. With you as the focus of our service offer, we
have established various means of informing retirement plan sponsors.
All documents are published in French and in
English. Service is also available in both languages.

 |
Upon Plan Establishment |
We are responsible for establishing the contract
according to the agreement conditions and for government registration
when necessary.
Our advisors ensure that plan establishment
proceeds harmoniously for each party concerned. Subsequently, our experts
make sure that the plan complies with federal and provincial legislation
at all times.

 |
Financial Report |
We periodically transmit a financial report
to the contractholder. This report accounts for the movement of money
and provides details on investment
income and benefits paid to members.
It provides information on the allocation
of the pension fund among the investment
options and among the members.

 |
Client Service |
Qualified client service personnel are available
from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. (Eastern time), from Monday to Friday, to assist
you in the day-to-day management of your pension plan. You may reach them
at the following toll-free number:

 |
Administration Guide |
Our primary objective is to minimize the employer’s
involvement in the day-to-day administration of the retirement plan. To
do this, we provide you with the Administration Guide when the plan is
established. The guide describes the procedures applicable in most situations
that occur during day-to-day plan management and indicates what forms
to use and how to fill them out quickly and efficiently.
