When parents say, “We want our kids to have the best of education at all costs”, they really mean it. If cost is not a factor, they should be saving the right way for their kid’s education needs.
Various investments such as public provident fund, mutual funds, shares, gold, real estate etc. are self-funded in nature. One needs to be alive to keep investing in them to accumulate wealth. But, on death, the funding in all likelihood would stop and the goal may be jeopardized. A better alternative, therefore, is the child insurance plan, which too is self-funded but in the absence of parents, the insurer funds the policy.
These insurance plans are structured in a way that they help in meeting the education need of the child. Only a child insurance plan can ensure that funds as per the requirement and as and when required by the child can be accumulated. In the event of the insured parent’s death, the plan ensures that the desired sum is given to the child at the desired age, not earlier or later. Also, in the absence of the insured parent, the insurance company starts funding the policy. This ensures that the plan to save for child needs does not get derailed.
What they do:
A child insurance plan is designed to meet the financial needs of your children, be it higher education, marriage or helping them establish a business. Investing in child insurance plans means that the payouts, including the death benefit, from such policy should be used only for the child needs. Child insurance plans helps you save regularly for your child’s needs, while carrying an assurance that your kids’ financial needs would be taken care of, in case one meet with an unfortunate event. In the event of the insured parent’s death, the plan ensures that the desired sum is given to the child at the desired age, not earlier or later.
