About this simulator

This simplified simulator illustrates the impact of credited interest on your retirement capital. Calculations assume annual compounding and a constant contribution rate.

Note: In practice, LPP retirement credits vary with age (7% at ages 25-34, rising to 18% at 55-65). For simplicity, this simulator applies a single average rate.
