Q. What kind of Insurance should a new parent buy for their new born baby?

Buying insurance for children sounds like a very good idea as the premiums for the policies are usually cheaper for their young age and serves as a good savings plan. However, parents should take up insurance for their children with the following objectives in mind:

  1. Lock in low premium rates for their children at a younger age, so that they can have better coverage at a lower price.
  2. Inculcate a savings habit by asking them to continue their insurance plan after they start working.
  3. Having a head start in saving a lump sum for children’s housing or further education soon after they start working.
