With this bridge crossed, we are now focused on obtaining product approval from the Régie des rentes du Québec. Once that takes place, and the VRSP legislation officially takes effect on July 1, 2014, you will be able to purchase Manulife’s VRSP and provide your employees a means to save for their retirement.
