Q: How do I find forms and documents on Advisor Corner?
A: There are two ways to locate your documents:

1. For documents and forms specific to a business line, select "Documents and  forms" under the tab of the desired business line.
2. For the rest, please refer to the "Documentation Center" tab in the navigation bar.
 
Need help navigating the Document Centre?

The most efficient way to navigate through the Document Center is in two steps. The first step is to filter your search by selecting the categories relevant to your search such as line of business, language or department. This can be done by selecting the filters that are located on the left side. This step helps eliminate most of the unwanted documents.

Once this first filtering is completed, the second step consists of entering keywords, document name or document number in the search bar. Once this step is complete, you should be left with the appropriate documents.

Looking for a low-fee investment option?
Discover our Registered Investment Account (RIA)!
What is RIA?
‍The RIA is an investment product, in the form of an annuity contract, similar to a segregated fund contract, except that the premiums are deposited and kept in the Assumption Life’s general account.

The return on investment mirrors the return made by the reference funds or strategy selected by the client. This allows us to offer highly competitive management fees.

Why RIA?
  • Earn more than 5.6% in the first year! Gross compensation of 5.2 % with a trailer of 0.45% starting after the first month.
  • Lower MERs - similar to mutual funds
  • Turn key solutions available - Target-date funds and portfolios

Check out the RIA performance as of April 30th 2021.

Biosimilar shift : What you need to know
Recently, many provinces have announced shifts in their government’s plans to switch from Biologic drugs to Biosimilar alternatives. British Columbia had taken the lead in 2019 by changing their PharmaCare program.

Since then, New Brunswick, Quebec, Alberta and Manitoba have followed suit. The latest news shows that Ontario is considering moving towards this change as well.

With drug costs consistently on the rise, Assumption Life’s Strategic Development team is evaluating the impacts of implementing these changes onto private payer plans. Our team is working on a solution to respond to these changes. Stay tuned for more details.

Have questions on this topic? Contact our Director of Strategic Development, Rachel Comeau at rachel.comeau@assumption.ca.
