Is MCAN Wealth's GIC covered by CDIC?

Yes. MCAN Wealth is a trust company deposit brand and a CDIC member, rather than a chartered bank, so an eligible GIC held here is protected to $100,000 per depositor, per insured category. The deposit itself is held by MCAN Mortgage Corporation, which means it shares that limit with anything else you hold there.

Who should buy a GIC from MCAN Wealth?

Savers with a small deposit, mostly. The $100 minimum is the lowest we track, and no term here leads the market.

Small depositsThe $100 minimum is the lowest we track. Several higher-paying issuers ask for $1,000, so for a first GIC of a few hundred dollars this may be the only realistic option.

Common questions about MCAN Wealth GICs

What is MCAN Wealth's minimum GIC deposit?

$100, the lowest of the 10 minimums we track. Every other institution that publishes one asks $100 to $1,000, so a first GIC of a few hundred dollars may have nowhere else to go.

Does MCAN Wealth have the best GIC rate in Canada?

Not on a 5-year term. MCAN Wealth posts 4.05% there, against 4.30% from WealthONE Bank of Canada: a gap of 0.25 points on the same term, for the same non-redeemable product. The table above runs the same comparison across all 5 terms.

Which GIC terms does MCAN Wealth offer?

5 terms are posted on mcanfinancial.com, from 1-year to 5-year. The comparison table above covers the 5 annual terms where enough issuers publish a rate for a market comparison to mean anything.

Does MCAN Wealth pay GIC interest monthly?

MCAN Wealth does not post a separate interest-paid-monthly rate on mcanfinancial.com, so we do not publish one. Where an issuer posts one it is always lower than the compounding rate, which makes it worth asking before you choose monthly income.

Are these MCAN Wealth rates promotional?

No. These are MCAN Wealth's standard posted rates, which its own page dates 2026-05-30; we read them on 2026-09-05. Limited-time promotions are noted separately rather than used to move an institution up the ranking, because a promotional rate that expires before your term does is not a rate you can rely on.
