Are segregated funds eligible to be designated for registered plans like RRSPs?

Segregated funds can indeed be used within registered plans such as Registered Retirement Savings Plans (RRSPs). This is because segregated funds are structured as investment products offered by life insurance companies, and they can be suitable for inclusion in various registered accounts due to their features, such as the ability to name a beneficiary and potential creditor protection.

The option indicating that only specific types of registered plans accept segregated funds is not accurate, as segregated funds can generally be included in a variety of registered plans, including RRSPs, RRIFs (Registered Retirement Income Funds), and others. The notion that segregated funds must meet certain performance criteria for eligibility within registered plans is misleading; there are no such stipulations for their inclusion in these accounts. Thus, the confirmation that segregated funds can be included in registered plans encompasses their flexibility and utility as investment vehicles for retirement savings.
