Contribution Amounts: Regular contributions are crucial for building your RDSP. The calculator allows you to input how much you plan to contribute, so you can visualize how those contributions accumulate over time.
Rate of Return: The calculator takes into account the assumed rate of return on your investments, helping you understand how your savings could grow based on different investment strategies. Whether you’re more conservative or aggressive with your portfolio, the tool adjusts to reflect that.
Government Grants: One of the unique advantages of the RDSP is the government contributions. Depending on your income and the contributions made, the government may match a portion of your deposits through the Canada Disability Savings Grant and the Canada Disability Savings Bond. The RDSP calculator helps you see exactly how much additional funding you could receive, which is often the key to rapidly boosting your savings.
Withdrawals: Planning for withdrawals is just as important as building up your savings. The RDSP Calculator helps you estimate the value of future withdrawals, giving you a clearer picture of how your savings will provide income throughout your retirement or long-term care.
