Schedule of payment and fees

All values generated by this calculator are not guaranteed and only serve as an illustrative example generated based on the values entered into the calculator. College fund+ is a unit-linked life insurance service which means that the savings reserve depends on the value of its underlying assets, which in turn can either increase or decrease over time.
In case if the return on investment is negative upon expiry of the agreement, you will receive the guaranteed amount, i.e. the sum of your payments less the agreement fee. Prior to entry into the contract, please examine the key information document, the terms and conditions of the contract and the price list at the homepage www.swedbank.ee. The service provider is Swedbank Life Insurance SE and the insurance intermediary service is provided by the insurance agent Swedbank AS.

Positive scenario

Contract year	Total amount of payments	Risk fee Risk fee is the fee for insurance protection - insurer's promise to proceed saving instead of you, in case of your death. It depends directly on agreed monthly premium amount which is calculated according to price list.	Other fees Management fee is used for management of your contract's life cycle investment portfolio and guarantee fee to protect your contract against negative investment results. It is calculated according to price list.	Estimated amount of savings The estimated (prognosed) value of savings at the end of the year, calculated with estimated interest rates and payments you have defined above. Actual value of saving depends on actual investment performance of assets.
