Eligible for CDIC coverage

Some of the best GIC rates available

Our interest rates are among the highest in Canada. You can also hold Oaken GICs within either a registered or non-registered plan. This means you can enjoy the combination of guaranteed principal and the opportunity to securely build your savings over time.

Why invest in a GIC?

Guaranteed Investment Certificates (GIC) offer a safe way to invest your money, because your principal and interest rate are both guaranteed. This makes GICs a great choice if you’re looking for a secure place to keep your savings. Oaken GICs give you the opportunity to build your savings on your terms, with flexible options that put you in control of your money. With our GICs, you’re in the driver’s seat:

We offer a variety of terms ranging from 30 days to 5 years, so it’s easy to find one that matches your timeline

You can select from two issuers for each deposit – Home Bank and Home Trust Company – both of which are separate members of CDIC

It’s up to you how often you want to receive interest payments – monthly, semi-annually, annually or at maturity (for terms of one year or more)

Choose between having flexible access to your money, or locking it for a set time period
