A story that began long before 1996
The story of Épargne Placements Québec is part of a much longer history. In 1963, the government began offering Québec Savings Bonds. At the time, bonds were physical paper certificates issued to the holder at the time of purchase. To redeem them, holders would have to present those same pieces of paper. This marked the beginning of a relationship between government savings and Quebecers. It showed a clear desire to help citizens save money while contributing to the funding of Québec government projects.
1996: A major turning point
The creation of Placements Québec, now known as Épargne Placements Québec, marked a turning point in 1996. This transition was accompanied by a major change: the dematerialization of paper bonds and the use of a computerized account registration system.
From that moment on, our aim was to offer Quebecers more modern, more diversified products with competitive returns. We started expanding our product offering beyond Savings Bonds.
