It depends, as the fees you pay are based on:

  • the type of investment vehicles you own
  • the type of account you hold (MD Plus account fees are generally tax-deductible when they are incurred on a non-registered account)*

An MD Plus account can hold:

  • cash
  • guaranteed investment certificates
