Distinguish "short term" and "risk-free"

institutional investors - pension funds or insurance companies - have the obligation to grow their money to fund their future commitments, and the discipline saves. They can't afford, like us, let the money sit in bank deposits or in short-term investments losing too much purchasing power.

You can take this investment discipline to maximize its investments without risk. After having closed its superfluous accounts, we will assess the amount that it is reasonable to keep really available. For many people, this does not exceed the ceiling of booklet A (22 950 €) and LDDS (12 000 €). Taxpayers with modest have also interest to open a livret d'épargne populaire (LEP).

Take the date with the best contracts

But the euro funds of the life insurance remains in effect the best response to the needs of savings without the risk of the French, provided to focus the best contracts. This is not a short-term investment, and have to wait eight years to withdraw money with a reduced taxation may seem like a long time. But these eight years from the opening of the contract, hence the importance of having opened a few years ago to "take date", as say the advisors. As soon as their contracts have more than eight years, the subscriber can place money for a few months or a few years, by removing the gains without tax penalties, as soon as they need it. Some contracts reactants on the Internet that promise to recover money from a withdrawal in less than three days. Also, it can take up to a few weeks.
