4“The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet” - Aristotle

How Much is Enough?¦ With rising education costs across all professional degrees,

saving for education becomes even more imperative

¦ Child care costs also include additional costs of housing, transportation, clothing, food, health care, etc.

¦ Long term equity investing is a suitable medium to combat ever increasing costs

The above chart is only an illustrative example to show rising cost of education and not based on actual data.

Cost of Education is rising much faster than in�ation

5What If your Child Aspires To Go To Harvard? Are You Prepared?

Prepare For The Best¦ The best professional degree courses in India cost up to

Rs. 19.5 lakh* today

¦ Similar courses abroad can cost signi�cantly more

¦ Premium institutes have the pricing power and in�ation will take these numbers higher year after year

¦ The cost of education should not come as a surprise to you

¦ So, prepare for the best, though you may have options to choose from!

¦ Save regularly with a goal in mind

¦ Finances should not get in the way of your child’s dreams

¡ Nicole: Rs. 27,759/month for 8 years

¡ Sachin: Rs. 68,545/month for 5 years

The later you start, the less your money works for you!

Goal Based Investing

¦ Targets a speci�c amount of corpus for your child’s education

¦ Money is earmarked for a speci�c purpose. For instance, investors do not touch PF corpus for buying a car (as the money is earmarked for retirement)

¦ Investors tend to rationalize their spending on other personal / social requirements

¦ Investing with a goal brings discipline

¦ Balances your current aspirations vs future requirements. A sizeable corpus can be built over time

¦ Mental Accounting is involved, ensuring long-term holding of investments

7

Goal based Investing towards Child’s Education

Build a corpus meant for your Child’s Education!

Investing without a Goal

¦ Savings are kept in a “common savings pool” without any goal in mind

¦ Money gets withdrawn from the “common savings pool” for all �nancial requirements

¦ Tend to overspend on other commitments

¦ What is left after spending gets saved

¦ What is left out of the “common savings pool” may not be adequate to tackle speci�c goals like children’s education

¦ Investors can get irrational in allocation of funds for various purposes and may resort to premature withdrawals

¦ “Mental Accounting” is an economic concept as per which investors divide their current and future savings into separate, non-transferable portions affecting their consumption decisions and other behaviours

¦ Mental accounting leads to long term thinking and �nancial discipline

¦ Since children`s education expenses are substantial and important, a corpus meant for the same needs to be saved separately

¦ Such investments are to be withdrawn only when nearing the goal

8

Mental Accounting

Parents want their children to have a better life than theirs; Education is the foundation for a better life.

Sensex CAGR of 14.4% for the period April 1, 1990 to March 31, 2017. Nominal GDP: A gross domestic product (GDP) �gure that has not been adjusted for in�ation.

¦ Have equities beaten in�ation? Equities have beaten in�ation and have compounded faster than other major asset classes over the last 25 years

¦ Aren’t equities risky? Having a short term view or investing directly in equities without adequate knowledge can be risky. Choose the right mutual fund scheme

¦ How do I invest in equities? Start a Systematic Investment Plan with a mutual fund. As your income increases, do a SIP Top Up

¦ Should I put all my money in equities? Not entirely. When you have a lot of time to achieve your goals, invest predominantly into equities. As you near your goals, you need to shift gradually to lesser volatile asset class like debt

How Mutual Funds help?

Long term �nancial goal planning

¡ Meet �nancial goals by investing in products catering to a wide array of investment goals

¡ Options to invest regularly in small doses or lump sum

Other bene�ts

¡ Diversi�cation even with a small investment

¡ Liquidity

¡ Tax bene�ts

SIP

¦ Investments at a prede�ned monthly or quarterly frequency

¦ For a salaried individual, the income is monthly and so should be the savings

¦ Ideal way to develop a savings habit

¦ As the income increases, do SIP Top Up

¦ This would inculcate discipline as to spending what is left after saving

11

SIP or Lump Sum?

Can there be a better gift to your child than investing to secure his/her future?

Lump Sum

¦ Lump sum when you receive large �ows like a bonus

¦ Ad hoc investments on special occasions like festivals or your child’s birthday

¦ Have a target corpus in mind

¦ Start early and invest regularly toward the goal - Keep time on your side!

¦ Focus long-term and stay invested
