  8. Here are some model portfolios Depending upon when you begin investing for your child, 1. Age of the child: Newborn to 5 years • Investment horizon : 13 to 18 years • If you start investing at this stage, • you allow your savings the maximum time to build up assets for your child's education. • With time on your side, you can take higher risk and go for equity funds. • However, if you choose to invest on a regular basis, try and increase the amount every year.

  9. Cont… 2. Age of the child: 6-12 years • Investment horizon : 6 to 12 years While a part of the portfolio may still focus on aggressive investment options like equity funds, • you will do well to include balanced funds also to reduce risk. • The attempt should be to move money to lesser volatile investment options, as the child grows older.

  10. Cont… 3. Age of the child: 13- 18 years • Investment horizon : 1 to 5 years • At this stage, it would be advisable to invest in funds that are least volatile and overall the focus should be on preserving capital. • Also, liquidity should be an important consideration while working out the strategy. • While the open-ended mutual funds will ensure that the money is available to you as and when you require it, the key is to make the money grow at a reasonable rate. www.ekarup.com

  23. Goals Each instrument in the market fits a particular need and to select the best investment plan for your child, • You don't have a ready capital to invest directly right-away. The capital needs to be built in terms of savings over the years. • You have sufficient time – your child is just in pre-school and you have close to 15-18 years to build a good sum of money.

  24. Cont… • And since we have time, we could also be a bit aggressive in our portfolio selection and bet a part of the yearly savings in equity instruments. • However, a fair share needs to be invested in asset classes too like gold for example. • We would also need to factor-in the ever increasing cost of education. Each year, the cost of education especially, higher education breaks new limits. • With the rising inflation, we need a vehicle which will factor in the inflation and give you returns over and above that.

  25. Futures Child Mutual Fund plans are exactly built around these needs, Diversified Allocation: Your funds are invested across various asset and equity classes providing you the right mix of risk exposure. Low Cost: Mutual Funds charge less than 2.25% per annum as expenses which is way better than spending as high as 6% on ULIPs. Liquidity: Unlike ULIPs, one is not penalised for exiting a child mutual fund plan prematurely. In case one is in dire need of liquid money, one can always stop and exit which makes Mutual Fund SIPs highly liquid.

  26. Cont… • Professional Portfolio Management: • With Mutual Funds, you get the assurance that your money is in the hands of professionals. • You can get them to take up the cumbersome and tricky task of timing the market and deciding the right mix for investing your money. • The best possible investment plan for your child's bright future is to invest in your child's education and taking all these factors into consideration, Mutual Funds are the best possible way which will help you give him that.

  27. Benefits • Discipline : • The cardinal rule of building your corpus is to stay focused, invest regularly and maintain discipline in your investing pattern. • Power of compounding: • Investment gurus always recommend that one must start investing early in life. One of the main reasons for doing that is the benefit of compounding • Rupee cost averaging: • This is especially true for investments in equities. When you invest the same amount in a fund at regular intervals over time, you buy more units when the price is lower.

  28. Cont… • Convenience: • This is a very convenient way of investing. You have to just submit cheques along with the filled up enrolment form. • Other advantages .., • There are no entry or exit loads on SIP investments. • Capital gains, wherever applicable, are taxed on a first-in, first-out basis. • Volatile market is good for SIP investor. • Flexibility in investment.
