Child Trust Fund

The Child Trust Fund (CTF) is a new long-term savings and investment scheme for children. The Government will make a payment to start each child’s CTF account off. The CTF accounts will help to strengthen the savings habit of future generations, spread the benefits of assets ownership to all, educate people in the need for savings and give young people a basic understanding of financial products.

Children born on or after 1st September 2002 will receive a voucher, minimum value £250, from the Government to start their account. Once the child’s savings account is open parents, grandparents, relatives and friends will be able to pay in a total of £1,200 each year tax-free.

The account belongs to the child and no withdrawals can be made until they turn 18. This will ensure that they have some money behind them to start their adult life.

Bank of Ireland offer Child Trust Fund Accounts through Bank of Ireland Financial Services who will recommend a provider after an investigation of the range of options available in the market.
