WE'RE PART OF THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE

Canadians prefer to work with a licensed professional over self-help online resources when making a major financial decision.¹ At Primerica, our representatives build face-to-face relationships with clients to help them overcome challenges they see firsthand, like:

Living paycheck to paycheck

47% of Canadians are currently living paycheck to paycheck.²

Saving enough for retirement

Almost half of Canadian non-retirees aged 55-64 have less than $5,000 in savings and 75% have $100,000 or less in savings.³

Debt

At the end of 2020, the average Canadian had $74,897 in consumer debt.⁴

MIDDLE-INCOME FAMILIES COUNT ON US TO STRENGTHEN THEIR FINANCIAL FUTURES

Primerica Canada helps middle-income households to receive personal financial guidance by providing regular savings vehicles that can be funded with as little as $25 a month. Primerica Canada licensed representatives focus on helping educate our clients to adopt positive personal financial habits. The value of financial guidance benefits Canadians by:

Boosting Household Wealth: Over a span of 15 years, individuals who received financial advice had nearly three times more wealth than those who didn't.5
Enhancing Retirement Savings: Working with a financial advisor can result in a significant increase in retirement savings, between 55 to 60 percent, while also enabling a 23 to 25 percent increase in spending during retirement.6
Fostering a Resilient Canadian Economy: By the year 2060, if 10 percent more Canadians received financial advice, Canadian household savings would increase by $2 billion, real GDP would increase by $900 million, and the Canadian government would gain $7 billion in tax revenue.7

Our financial products and services help middle-income Canadians to afford financial services, establish financial protection through life insurance, become debt-free, build on becoming financially prepared for retirement, and positively contribute to the sustainability of the Canadian economy.
