Let’s have a talk about what’s important for you

  • Savings for Child’s Future is an investment-linked life insurance contract for the contract holder. It provides a possibility to create meaningful savings for your child to get good education or start an independent life.
  • Long-term savings need to be protected against inflation, therefore the accumulated funds are invested in financial markets, but there is no need to worry – investments are made in accordance with the investment strategy, and the savings are also protected with a guaranteed amount.

Learn more:

  • You will be saving money for your child and we will handle investing it.
  • The savings are protected — there is a guaranteed amount at the end of the contract.
  • Life insurance for the contract holder. If the worst happens and the contract holder passes away, the unpaid part of the savings foreseen in the contract will be paid by Swedbank Life Insurance SE. This amount will be calculated as follows: your monthly contribution to the savings (max. EUR 100) times the number of full months remaining until the end of the contract term.
  • Anyone can make an additional contribution under the agreement. This can be an idea for a useful present for the child’s birthday – relatives can contribute to the savings. Download the gift certificate to find out how to make the contribution. The personal income tax refund may be claimed only if the payer of contributions and the contract holder are one and the same person.
  • Flexible contributions of your choice. The minimum monthly contribution is EUR 30.
  • Additional income can be received for the contributions made to the savings in the form of a 20% personal income tax refund. The contract for Savings for Child’s Future gives you the opportunity to annually receive a 20% personal income tax refund on the contributions to the savings, not exceeding 10% of your gross annual salary, and no more than EUR 4,000 in total. However, if the beneficiary of the accrued savings is the child and not the contract holder upon the maturity of the contract or if the term of the insurance contract is less than 10 years, then, pursuant to the Law on Personal Income Tax, you will not be able to claim a personal income tax refund on contributions to the insurance contract. Learn more
  • Possibility to change the beneficiary. If the recipient of the accrual (the beneficiary upon the maturity) is the child and not the contract holder themselves, then it will not be possible to get the personal income tax refund for the contributions made to the contract. Learn more

Considering that this is long-term savings, and long-term savings need to be protected against inflation, the accumulated funds are invested in financial markets.

Investment strategy:

Results of funds in insurance contracts
  • The contract offers an investment strategy, which takes into consideration the amount of time remaining until the end of the contract.
  • The longer the period until the end of the contract, the higher risk assets with higher potential returns are invested in. As the end of the contract term approaches, the investment strategy becomes more conservative with the goal of exposing the investment to less market fluctuations.

  • If the contract has been valid for less than five years, you will have to pay a termination fee as per the price list.
  • The guaranteed amount will be waived.
  • If you have received personal income tax refunds on the contributions to the savings, and the contract is terminated less than 10 years after it was signed (5 years if the contract was signed by 31.12.2017), you will have to repay the tax refunds you received.

When the child reaches the age until which the contract was in force, an application to receive payment must be submitted via Internet Banking or at a branch office.

The conditions to qualify for the personal income tax refund:

  • The minimum period of saving – 10 years
  • The maximum amount of contributions for which you can get a tax refund is 10% of the gross annual income but in any event not more than 4000 EUR.
  • The payer of contributions is the contract holder
  • The beneficiary upon the maturity of contract is the contract holder

If the terms of the insurance contract are amended, only contributions made after the date of registration of the amendments will qualify you for a personal income tax refund.

Note that contributions into the contract made after partial payout of the accrued savings do not meet the conditions for the personal income tax refund.
