Coins
February 18, 2026, 1:00–2:00 PM ET

As a CAF member, how could the shifts in economy affect your investments and future financial stability?


Join us for a timely webinar as SISIP Financial Experts and our partners from iA Financial Group break down the macroeconomic forces shaping 2026, covering inflation, interest rates, global market trends, and government spending, and explain what these mean for the CAF community.  

You’ll also gain insights into how these factors impact mutual fund strategies and influence your personal financial planning. 

Finally, we’ll explore why, despite the rise of Artificial Intelligence, expert advice remains your smartest asset when navigating financial decisions. 

What we will cover:  

  • Key economic trends for 2026: inflation, interest rates, global markets, and government spending.
  • How these shifts affect CAF members’ investments and financial stability.
  • The impact of macroeconomic forces on mutual fund strategies and personal financial planning.

After this webinar you will be able to:  

  • Understand key macroeconomic trends and their impact on mutual fund strategies.
  • Recognize how economic conditions influence personal financial planning.
  • Understand the risks of relying on AI for financial advice and the value of professional guidance for investing in mutual funds. 
  • Identify CAF-specific financial considerations and available SISIP Financial resources related to mutual funds. 

Join our expert-led webinar on MS Teams and gain practical insights tailored to CAF members.  

Bonus! Seven participants will be randomly selected to receive a Yeti Mug courtesy of iA Clarington, and five lucky participants will win CANEX gift cards: one valued at $500, one at $300, and three at $100 each.
