The Desjardins Golden Plan is Your Golden Opportunity

Among Desjardins' many specialized products and services is the exclusive Golden Plan, designed to help you meet the Immigrant Investor Program’s investment criteria more easily by financing a substantial amount of the required $CAN400,000 investment. This alone can reduce the cost of joining the Program to as little as a $CAN120,0001 down payment.

Desjardins Protects Your Investment

Desjardins guarantees that the $CAN120,000 down payment will cover the expenses incurred by the loan during its five-year term, regardless of interest rate fluctuations.

Upon maturity, the proceeds from your investment will cover the expenses, capital and even the financing cost of your initial loan. Desjardins’ Golden Plan doesn’t carry any hidden costs or unforeseen payments! 

Simply put, the Golden Plan doesn’t require that you liquidate any long-term fixed assets, nor provide any collateral in order to meet the required $CAN400,000 investment criteria. You remain in control of more of your money and can watch it grow in other, high-return investments!

Investment with financing (Golden Plan)

The investor provides only a portion ($ 120,000)  of the mandatory investment. 

Investor’s down payment: $ 120,0002
Desjardins loan: Desjardins loan
   
Total required investment: $ 400,000
   
Reimbursement at maturity: $ 0

2 The $ 120,000 down payment will cover the interest, capital and financing cost related to the Desjardins loan. Therefore at maturity, Desjardins will not return any interest or capital. The total cost of this financing option is limited to your initial $CAN120,000 down payment.

The Desjardins Golden Plan Works For You!

Because the Golden Plan asks only that you provide a fraction of the $CAN400,000 required by the program, you’re free to invest the difference ($CAN280,000) in other, higher-return investments and enjoy even greater returns!

In the example below, an investor who chose the Golden Plan earned $50,000 more at the end of the five-year term ($450,942 - $400,000 = $50,942) than an investor making the full investment.

Example3

Year Investment Return Growth Total
 1  280,000  10%  28,000  308,000
 2  308,000  10%  30,800  338,800
 3  338,800  10%  33,800  372,680
 4  372,680  10%  37,268  409,948
 5  409,948  10%  40,994  450,942


Under the Golden Plan, had the investment yielded 20% - a return not unheard of – the investment would have yielded $300,000!

1Subject to interest rate fluctuations
3This example is based on $CAN280,000, which is the equivalent of loan issued through the Desjardins Golden plan, at a rate of 10%, compounded annually.

 

 

 

A Great Support
“Moving to a new country is not always easy. But Desjardins was a great support. Not only did they do a great job financially by helping us considerably limit our down payment with their Golden Plan, but they also helped with the integration process by referring us to the right persons.”
Mrs. Haddad, Québec Immigrated from Lebanon in 1994
