Build and protect your savings with Sun Life GIFs

When you invest into a segregated fund, you contribute to a large pool of money. This pool is invested back in stocks, bonds or other securities that grow the value of the entire investment. With segregated fund contracts you also have maturity and death benefit guarantees. These guarantees can help protect your investments against market downturns. In some cases you will even have income guarantees for life.

Sun Life GIFs offer many of the benefits of mutual funds with the protection and estate planning advantages of an insurance contract.

Sun Life GIFs offer two products to help meet your financial needs:
