Every subscription is reviewed and approved by Drake Financial Ltd., a registered exempt market dealer — independently of Tawakkul. Why that matters
LIRA
Locked-In Retirement Account, without interest.
When you leave an employer with a pension, the commuted value often moves into a LIRA. It stays locked until retirement age — which makes it, unusually, a natural fit for a long-term holding.
Why it matters here. A LIRA cannot be withdrawn early except in narrow circumstances. That constraint, which is normally a drawback, aligns well with an investment that is meant to be held for years rather than traded.
How the LIRA works
SourceAlmost always a transfer from a former employer's registered pension plan
AccessLocked until a minimum age set by the governing pension legislation, with limited unlocking provisions
Tax treatmentSheltered while inside; taxed as income when eventually drawn through a LIF or annuity
JurisdictionRules differ depending on whether the pension is federally or provincially regulated
Who it suits
Anyone holding a locked-in pension transfer who does not expect to draw on it for many years.
What to be careful about
Unlocking rules vary by jurisdiction and are strict. Confirm your own before planning around access.
Eligible for your LIRA. The Offering Memorandum confirms that, provided the Trust qualifies as a mutual fund trust under the Income Tax Act, Units are qualified investments for registered plans. How a registered subscription runs.
How a registered subscription actually runs
You send no money yourself
Your plan custodian transfers the funds once a transfer form is completed and the transfer from your existing institution settles. Nothing leaves your own bank account.
It takes weeks, not days
A custodian transfer is a multi-week process. Most registered subscriptions that fail do so because nobody said anything for a month — so we track yours and tell you where it has reached at each stage.
A holding limit applies
Units become a prohibited investment for a registered plan if your interest reaches 10% or more of the fair market value of all beneficiaries' interests. We warn you well before that point.
Your dealer still decides
