However, each Special GIC offers slightly different options to better meet your specific needs.

Security GIC Plus

The Security GIC Plus offers a guaranteed minimum interest return plus the potential to earn even more. A bonus return is linked to the performance of two stock market indices: S&P/TSX Banks Index and the S&P/TSX Capped Utilities Index, with a 50% weighting to each index.

At maturity, you will receive the guaranteed minimum interest return plus a bonus interest return, if any, so you have the potential for higher returns. But unlike stocks, your principal is guaranteed no matter which way the markets move. And your investment has no foreign currency risk. Please note, the Security GIC Plus is not offered within an RESP or RIF.

Bonus Interest Return
The bonus interest return is calculated based on the combined performance of two stock market indices: S&P/TSX Banks Index and the S&P/TSX Capped Utilities Index over the term of the investment, up to the Maximum Return. Please refer to the Rate Information for the current guaranteed minimum interest return and Maximum Returns.

Principal Protected
Your original principal is protected no matter which way the stock market moves. Even if the market index declines, you earn no bonus interest, but your original investment remains fully protected and you will receive the minimum guaranteed interest rate. The Security GIC Plus is issued by TD Mortgage Corporation and is fully guaranteed by The Toronto-Dominion Bank.

No Foreign Currency Risk
Your investment is not exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies.
