How to choose between a French or Luxembourg life insurance, a PEA, a securities account? All of these products allow you to grow your savings over the more or less long term, each has its own specificities, find out which ones with our summary tables!

What you must remember :

- Do you want to invest in company shares without any geographic restriction? So prefer the securities account! Likewise, if you want to invest in stocks without having your money blocked for 5 years, the securities account is for you.

- If, on the other hand, patience is one of your qualities but you suffer from an acute tax phobia, the PEA is your best ally since all capital gains and interest generated are exempt from income tax after 5 years.

- Do you prefer to save and develop capital over the long term without any blocking period for your funds and are not a fan of shares held directly? The life insurance policy should fill you up!

- Are you convinced that life insurance is THE solution you need, but are you worried about the potential bankruptcy of some French banks? Take a closer look at the Luxembourg life insurance contract, at the top level in terms of investor protection!

Anticipating your retirement is fundamental, it is not the recent news on pension reform that will make us say the opposite! PERP and PERin are specifically dedicated to this issue and good news, they also reduce your tax burden! Let's see what makes these two products different and how to choose.

What you must remember :

- If you want to prepare for your retirement by benefiting from an immediate tax reduction and you plan to acquire your main residence (and think you need all or part of these funds), the PERin will best meet your expectations .

- On the other hand, in all other cases the PERP will offer you a more attractive tax on exit and therefore remains more advantageous (hurry, its time is running out since it will be closed for sale on October 1, 2020!).

Does the prospect of receiving regular rents make you happy, but you hate rental management? Is betting everything on one apartment risky and you would prefer not to put all your eggs in one basket? Then the shares of SCPI or OPCI have a high probability of bringing you satisfaction. How to choose between the two? To find out, take a look at our comparison table by clicking on the link at the beginning of the article.

What you must remember:

- If you intend to use the leverage effect of credit, SCPI shares will allow you to do so, unlike OPCI.

- If you want to hold units directly (without going through life insurance) and liquidity (possibility of recovering your money) is an important aspect for you, prefer OPCI units because they have a unit more cash.

- You do not necessarily need additional income immediately and prefer to grow the rents received in order to derive the maximum benefit? The life insurance contract will perfectly meet this objective! Indeed, it is possible to acquire SCPI or OPCI units through life insurance, the income will then be reinvested in new units (or other fund (s) of your choice). Also think about the SCI (Société Civile Immobilière) which is only accessible through life insurance!

- Does the idea of ​​receiving immediate additional income enchant you? Instead, turn to the German OPCI or SCPI whose income tax is much softer than that applied to the income of French SCPI.

In return for your help, get an 18% tax reduction on the amount of your investment.

- If taking part in the development of young European companies is in your eyes a noble cause, then the shares of FIP will delight you (conservation of the shares for at least 5 years). Take a particular interest in Corsican or Overseas FIPs which will offer you a tax reduction of 38% of the amount invested (instead of 18% for traditional FIPs).

- Do you want to reduce your taxes and also receive property income from one or more bare rented properties? Then the SCPI land deficit will undoubtedly make you happy!
