TNG offers 6.99% interest for an RRSP catch up loan
Wondering about other alternatives.

I don't know. Borrowing for an RSP is not something I'd do.

Instead, I would make regular contributions to a HISA or short GIC's then late in the next tax season, move that accumulation to your RSP. I would then add my tax refund to my continuing HISA contributions for next year's contributions ...

6.99% is Tangerine's Prime (7.2%) minus 0.21%. That's comparable to other banks.

RBC Royal Bank is offering RRSP loans at Prime (7.2%) plus 0%. Same from CIBC.
