The current uncertainty of the work environment and the public pension system together with the great attention that this issue is getting from the media, is making us adopt more and more to a savings mentality in order to be prepared to face any unforeseen economic situation that may arise in a short, medium or long term.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1073\" src=\"https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1459\" height=\"821\" srcset=\"https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro-200x113.png 200w, https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro-400x225.png 400w, https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro-600x338.png 600w, https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro-800x450.png 800w, https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro-1200x675.png 1200w, https:\/\/topsegur.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/plan-de-ahorro.png 1459w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1459px) 100vw, 1459px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">But the savings plan, like any financial product, presents a series of specifications that we should be aware of and which will facilitate decision-making. Specifications that usually arise and provoke questions such as the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>Do I have to contribute a first amount? If so, how much?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">Yes, a first amount of between \u20ac60 and \u20ac3000 is required, depending on the type of product.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>How does it affect my taxes?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">From a tax perspective, it\u2019s a very attractive product because the income from the payment of the initial premium until the start of the insured income, is free from taxes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_GoBack\"><\/a><span lang=\"en-GB\">Taxes are paid when money has been taken out and according to the age of the policyholder and the elapsed constitution time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>Can I configure the contributions according to my needs?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">In this aspect there is a lot of flexibility. Contributions can be made monthly, quarterly, half-yearly, etc., although with a limitation of \u20ac8,000 per year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>Am I obligated to a minimum period of permanence?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">It will depend on the company where the plan is contracted, although usually there is a minimum of one year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>What type of interest do the SISP present?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">In recent years, the product has diversified into two branches, secured SISP, where interest ranges between 1% and 3%, and unguaranteed SISP, aimed at clients who contemplate taking on more risk and whose capital is partly invested in the financial market.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>What is the real risk that I\u2019m taking?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">As we said in the previous point, there are more conservative products and others riskier, so it is in fact a variable that the taker decides.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>When can I have access to my money?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">At any time, considering the period of permanence required by the company, but if it is done before 10 years have elapsed, you won\u2019t benefit from the tax advantages.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\"><b>What sets it apart from a pension plan?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-GB\">Mainly that the SISP is a liquid product, meaning you can take your money out at any time and that it\u2019s not tied to retirement.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An SISP (systematic individual savings plan) is a very important financial alternative for those who wish to build a financial capital in the future.
