Why choose a CIBC EasyBuilder GIC?

This GIC is right for you if you want to maximize your returns without parking all your money into one long-term investment. We use a strategy called laddering to split your money into 5 GICs. Each one has a different maturity date, from 1 to 5 years. As each term matures, we reinvest your money into a new 5-year GIC.
