I have a bit of savings and would like to do some investment, however I don't want to do stocks and shares as the risk is too high. So considering to buy endowment plans from banks or insurance company. Anyone has such experience ? Which bank offers best return ? Normally it's 5+5 paying premium for first five years and then collect money at the end of tenth year. Welcome any advice. Thanks
It depends on your priority Most of the endowment plans invest majorly in bonds. Less liquidity, longer term will potentially yield higher return If you need more liquidity, try plans with more coupon and divident which you can withdraw or put back to enjoy guranteed interest rate. If not, choose plans with higher bonus which can be withdraw only upon claim, maturity or surrender.
