Q: Hi 5i,
In a RRSP account, is it better to have BEP.UN:CA or BEPC:CA?
Thanks.
Asked by Brian on January 04, 2024
5i Research Answer:

We would suggest BEP.UN for a registered account. The two are economically equivalent, but BEPC trades at a higher price due to the tax benefits of owning it vs BEP.UN. Since RRSP's are tax exempt (on dividends and capital gains), we think BEP.UN makes sense.
