Studiekosten plannen

Internationaal onderwijs en studie betalen in verschillende valuta's, zonder dat uw overige plannen in de knel komen.

Overzicht

International school and university fees are one of the biggest predictable costs a family that moves around will face, and they're almost always charged in a currency the family doesn't earn in. Fees rise faster than prices in general, come due on fixed dates, and can't be put off.

We work out the full cost of each child's education from their current age to graduation, in the currency each stage will be billed in, then design a plan to pay for it on time without having to sell investments at a bad moment or disturb the rest of your plans.

If grandparents or a family trust are paying, the plan also covers how the money gets there — gifts, trusts and tax — including who pays any tax and what happens if the person paying dies part-way through.

Veelgestelde vragen

Vragen die we in elk kennismakingsgesprek horen.

How early should we start?
The earlier the better, but it helps at any stage — even a year out, deciding which savings pay which bills avoids forced sales and bad exchange rates.
Should grandparents pay directly?
It's often more efficient for grandparents to pay through a gift or a trust than for parents to pay from taxed income, but the best route depends on where both sides live, their domicile and their estates.
How do you deal with currency risk?
As each payment date gets closer, we hold the money in the currency the bill will be charged in, rather than leaving it to whatever the exchange rate happens to be on the day.
Can a trust pay school fees?
Yes, and it's common. How the payment is made, the child's tax position and the trustee's records need setting up correctly, which we arrange with the trustee.
