ShariaPortfolio LIRA - Locked-In Retirement Account

Halal Retirement Accounts in Alberta

ShariaPortfolio Canada's LIRA accepts locked-in pension transfers from former employers into a Shariah-screened portfolio - converting a conventional, usually bond-heavy pension balance into AAOIFI-compliant management for the locked-in decades until retirement. The portfolio holds screened equities, sukuk, and Islamic funds with no conventional bonds, in active or passive strategies matched to time horizon, and sits alongside RRSP and RRIF accounts in one consolidated halal retirement picture. Withdrawal restrictions are legislated under provincial LIRA rules. Custody is at Fidelity Clearing Canada ULC, with advisors serving BC, Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec.

For Canadians who left a job and a pension behind, this LIRA converts that locked-in money into a Shariah-screened portfolio backed by formal compliance opinions - usually the only way to get a former employer's plan out of its conventional default fund and into AAOIFI-compliant management. Because the money is locked until at least 55 under provincial rules, the multi-decade horizon suits the firm's active and passive equity-and-sukuk strategies, and the account consolidates with RRSPs and RRIFs under one advisor relationship. Withdrawal restrictions are legislated, so treat it strictly as retirement capital, and expect the fee conversation to happen in consultation since nothing is published. Best for former plan members who want their pension transfer managed halal until retirement.
