Saving with funds made easy.

What is the s Fonds Plan?
With the s Fonds Plan – a fund savings plan – you invest regularly, about once a month, in an investment fund of your choice. You automatically invest a fixed amount and use it to buy fund units at the current issue price.
Note: Depending on the performance of the investment fund, the performance of an s Fonds Plan will differ from that of a one-off investment (higher or lower). A loss of capital is possible in both cases. Please note that investing in securities involves risks as well as opportunities.

Risks to be considered
- Fund prices are subject to fluctuations – depending on the securities included

- Depending on the performance of the investment fund, the performance of an s Fund Plan will differ from that of a one-off investment (higher or lower). A loss of capital is possible in both cases.
Lower price thanks to the cost-averaging principle
If you regularly pay in equal amounts, you can achieve a more favorable average price than with a one-time purchase. The “cost-average principle” is particularly useful when prices fluctuate strongly, as you purchase more units when prices are low than when prices are high. Note: Selling units when prices are low can lead to losses.

Use compound interest
Your earnings are automatically reinvested in accumulating funds and can start working for you immediately.
Automatic value adjustment
If you wish, your deposits are automatically increased annually by a fixed percentage or euro amount. This way you can compensate for inflation.
5 Steps to the s Fonds Plan
In just a few steps, you can open your s Fonds plan with interesting funds.
Identify investment needs
Think about why you want to build up capital. After all, the investment need determines the amount of the deposit. You can invest from 50 euro per month.
Define the investment goal
Consider in advance when an investment is satisfying for you personally. Remain realistic. For the level of return also depends on your willingness to take risks and the time span.
Choose the right time span
With the s Fund Plan, you buy units on a regular basis. You buy more fund units when prices are low and fewer when they are high. This allows you to balance out possible price fluctuations over time.
Select investment funds
Now it’s a matter of choosing the right investment funds. Your risk tolerance and expectations about the level of return play an important role in the decision. The deposit can also be divided among up to 5 investment funds.
