A retirement solution designed for Canadians

Fidelity ClearPath® Portfolios are designed for Canadian investors. Shaped by key drivers of long-term outcomes, our unique glide path reflects actual behaviours of Canadian plan members.

Glide path design is informed by research in three critical areas:

Designed for income

With many Canadians depending on defined contribution plans as their primary source of retirement income, plan sponsors can design their plans to target specific income replacement goals, helping members maintain their standard of living in retirement.

It is important to recognize that savings alone may not provide an adequate level of income replacement throughout a retirement that could last 25–30 years
