Education Savings Plan

The Education Savings Plan (ESP) is purposefully designed for parents who want to secure their child's higher education. Our digital advice tool helps parents understand an appropriate target for their child's education based on the child’s age, degree type and country of education. With a carefully selected range of funds, parents can save and invest regularly to achieve their child's education payout goal.

ESP also offers a unique 'Future Premium Protection' benefit, which ensures that your child's dream of higher education remains secure, even if a parent becomes disabled or passes away during the payment term.

Let's begin building your child's bright future together.

Who is it for?

ESP may be suitable for you if:

You want to save for your child’s higher education
ESP is best suited for parents who can commit to a disciplined savings plan for at least five years, starting from USD 400 monthly, with the aim of saving a substantial college fund for their child.

You need a cost-effective education savings plan
With ESP, charges are spread over the term of the plan rather than paid upfront.

You need to make sure that your child can access the money

In the event of death or disability of a parent, the ‘Future Premium Protection’ benefit pays all the remaining contributions upfront. In the absence of a parent, the child will be able to access the money once they reach 18 years of age.

You accept a level of risk for the potential of better return
Unlike a bank account, investments carry a degree of risk and can go up and down in value. Your advisor can help you determine the level of risk you're comfortable with and help you select the right mix of funds for your plan.

For a full understanding of the products, please refer to the policy terms and conditions.

Who isn’t it for?

ESP might not be suitable for you if:

You want to start saving before your child is born
ESP can be taken for a child only after their birth. The child needs to be named on the plan to secure them as the beneficiary.

You don’t want to be tied into a structured savings plan
ESP is a disciplined, fixed payment term savings plan with limits on withdrawals during the payment term. Early withdrawals may incur penalties. It helps you stay committed to your child's future goals. If you prefer greater flexibility, alternative plans may better suit your saving preferences.

Your child starts university soon
It is recommended to start saving for your child's higher education at least five years in advance.

You’re not currently a resident of the United Arab Emirates
ESP is available only to parents who are currently living in the UAE.
