Like every parent, you too must be overjoyed to watch your child grow. All parents want to give the best possible upbringing to their children. This includes good education and security, in case of any eventuality. Soon, your little bundle of joy will grow up, and it will be time to provide for his or her higher education and wedding.

The purpose of Children's Future Planning is to create a corpus for foreseeable expenditures such as those on higher education and wedding, and to provide for an adequate security cover during their growing years.

Children's Future Planning acquires added importance because children's education and wedding are high priority life goals, which can neither be postponed nor can there be a compromise on the amount.

Good education has always been the passport to a secure future. Today, career opportunities have grown manifold, and there are many professional course that your child can aspire for. However, costs of higher education have also increased exponentially.

Like most parents, you might be saving regularly to ensure a safe tomorrow for your child. However, savings alone is no longer enough. For ensuring adequate funding of your child's education, you as a parent, need to do two things:

Invest appropriate amount systematically and at regular intervals

Provide for a financial security blanket to cover any eventuality

It is never too early to start saving and investing for your child's future. Especially in today's context. For example, the cost of a professional degree today is approximately Rs 2.5 lakhs. If your child is one-year-old today, after 17 years when he/she goes to college, you may require a sum of Rs 6.3 lakhs, assuming an annual rate of inflation of 6%.

There are many products which your Financial Planner can use to achieve the above objectives. For example, he could suggest a Children's Future Plan offered by any good insurance company, to build a corpus for your child's higher education, and provide for a security cover in the event of the parent's unfortunate demise.

Children's plans are also available under unit-linked option. Being unit-linked, they offer access to investments in all kinds of asset classes - equity, debt and cash.

"Insurance is not for the person who passes away, it for those who survive," goes a popular saying that explains the importance of Insurance Planning.

It is extremely important that every person, especially the breadwinner, covers the risks to his life, so that his family's quality of life does not undergo any drastic change in case of an unfortunate eventuality.

Insurance Planning is concerned with ensuring adequate coverage against insurable risks. Calculating the right level of risk cover is a specialised activity, requiring considerable expertise. Proper Insurance Planning can help you look at the possibility of getting a wider coverage for the same amount of premium or the same level of coverage for the same amount amount of premium or the same level of coverage for a reduced premium. Hence, the need for proper insurance planning.

Insurance, simply put, is the cover for the risks that we run during our lives. Insurance enables us to live our lives to the fullest, without worrying about the financial impact of events that could hamper it. In other words, insurance protects us from the contingencies that could affect us.

So what are the risks that we run? To name a few - the risk on our lives that is, the worries of replacement of the incomes that we contribute to the running of the household), the risks of medical contingencies (since they have the capability of depleting our wealth considerably) and risks to assets (since the replacement of these can have tremendous financial implications). If we can imagine a situation where our goals are disturbed by acts beyond our control, we can realise the relevance of insurance in our lives.

Insurance Planning takes into account the risks that surround you and then provides an adequate coverage against those risks. There is no risk not worth insuring yourself against, and insurance should first and foremost be looked as a measure to guard against risks - the risk of your dreams going awry due to events beyond your control.

Essentially, Investment Planning involves identifying your financial goals throughout your life, and prioritising them. Investment Planning is important because it helps you to derive the maximum benefit from your investments.

Your success as an investor depends upon your ability to choose the right investment options. This, in turn, depends on your requirements, needs and goals. For most investors, however, the three prime criteria of evaluating any investment option are liquidity, safety and return.

Investment Planning also helps you to decide upon the right investment strategy. Besides your individual requirement, your investment strategy would also depend upon your age, personal circumstances and your risk appetite. These aspects are typically taken care of during investment planning.

Investment Planning also helps you to strike a balance between risk and returns. By prudent planning, it is possible to arrive at an optimal mix of risk and returns, that suits your particular needs and requirements.

Some like it. Some don’t. But retirement is a reality for every working person. Most young people today think of retirement as a distant reality.

However, it is important to plan for your post-retirement life if you wish to retain your financial independence and maintain a comfortable standard of living even when you are no longer earning. This is extremely important, because, unlike developed nations, India does not have a social security net.

Retirement Planning acquires added importance because of the fact that though longevity has increased, the number of working years haven’t.

Our Retirement Planning Service involves:

Computing that amount that would be required post-retirement. This is done after taking inflation and time value of money into account.

Building your Retirement Corpus using Systematic Investment Plans (SIPs) and other long-term growth orient products

Ensuring adequate post-retirement income through safe investments.

The asset allocation and selection of investment vehicles keep changing as your risk-bearing capacity diminishes.

A good investment strategy requires choosing the right mix of safe and risky investments. Among safe investments, fixed deposits, FDs, are the most popular today.

With FDs you deposit a lump sum of money for a fixed period ranging from a few weeks to a few years and earn a pre-determined rate of interest. FDs are offered by both banks and companies though putting your money with the latter is generally considered riskier.

Before you invest in FDs you need to understand the concept of effective return which is higher than the rate of interest on the FD. Effective return is relevant if you choose to reinvest your interest every year which means that you will be earning compound interest.
