| To prove the value a Fiscal Agents client
would receive, we went to the market with a 5-year $50,000.00 investment, and
asked for the major banks to show us their best-posted rates.
The results (as of February 19, 2008):
| |
By investing $50,000.00 for a period of 5 years at our best
interest rate of 4.65% the Annual interest paid to you would be $2,325.00. That's
$575.00 per payment higher than any major bank. If interest is paid out, the overall
result is a whopping $2,875.00 more in your pocket. The average rate at the major
banks was only 3.29%. |
| |
If it had been an RRSP investment, and compound over the
same time and interest rate period, you would have accrued $12,757.58. in interest
a difference of $3,373.26 higher than the average available at any major bank! |
Conclusion: Fiscal Agents Guaranteed Investment Certificate clients
earn more on each dollar invested than a local major bank branch client. Not
