 Moving the DEF Bond Fund to the RRSP would be more tax-efficient than moving any of the other funds. This is because bond funds generate interest income, which is fully taxable at the investor’s marginal tax rate in a non-registered account. By moving the bond fund to an RRSP, Darryl can defer paying taxes on the interest income until he withdraws it from the RRSP. Moving the GHI Global Equity Fund to the RRSP (B) would not be tax-efficient, as global equity funds generate foreign income and dividends, which are subject to foreign withholding taxes in an RRSP. Moving $20,000 from each of the three funds to the RRSP © would not be tax-efficient, as it would trigger capital gains taxes on all three funds in proportion to their returns. Moving the ABC Canadian Equity Fund to the RRSP (D) would not be tax-efficient, as Canadian equity funds generate Canadian dividends, which are eligible for a dividend tax credit in a non-registered account. By moving the Canadian equity fund to an RRSP, Darryl would lose this tax advantage and pay taxes on the dividends at his marginal tax rate when he withdraws them from the RRSP.

 Relationship Disclosure Information (RDI) is a document that provides important information about the nature and scope of the relationship between a registered firm and its clients. It covers topics such as the products and services offered by the firm, the fees and charges applicable to the client’s account, the risks associated with investing, the conflict of interest management policies of the firm, and the dispute resolution services available to the client. According to Section 14.2 of National Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations (NI 31-103), registered firms must provide RDI to their clients before they purchase or sell securities for them or advise them to do so. Registered firms must also update RDI in a timely manner if there are any significant changes to it. To evidence that they have satisfied their RDI obligation, registered firms may retain a copy of the RDI in the client file with detailed notes to confirm that they have provided and explained RDI to their clients. This is one of the acceptable methods suggested by Alberta Securities Commission (ASC) in its presentation on RDI1. Delivering RDI only upon request or using a letter of engagement are not sufficient methods to comply with NI 31-103. Providing and explaining Fund Facts is a separate obligation under NI 31-101 Mutual Fund Distribution Rules.

A conflict of interest is a situation in which a person’s personal interests conflict with their professional duties or responsibilities. A conflict of interest should be avoided or disclosed to prevent harm to the client or the registrant. In this case, Arilla’s client, Gwen, wants to co-invest with Arilla in units of a real estate limited partnership. This is a conflict of interest because Arilla may have a personal interest in the investment that could influence her advice to Gwen or affect her ability to act in Gwen’s best interest. For example, Arilla may benefit from the investment at Gwen’s expense, or she may have access to information that Gwen does not have. Therefore, this is a conflict of interest that should be avoided by Arilla. She should decline Gwen’s offer and explain that it would compromise her professional obligations and fiduciary duty to Gwen.
