Education Funding Planning for Expatriates

Education funding planning is about preparing in advance for the cost of school and university, so that those costs can be met without disrupting your wider financial plans. For internationally mobile families, this often means budgeting for international school fees, boarding, or university in another country — frequently in a different currency from the one you earn in.

These costs can be significant and tend to arrive on a fixed timetable, which is exactly why early planning helps. The longer the period over which you prepare, the more manageable the contributions tend to be, and the more flexibility you have to adjust as plans change — for example, if a child moves school or studies abroad.

NEBA Wealth Management, a division of NEBA Private Clients, helps you map out the likely costs against your timeline and consider the savings and investment approaches that may suit your circumstances. We take account of your time horizon, your currency requirements and your wider financial goals, so that education funding sits sensibly alongside the rest of your plan.

Planning early gives you the clearest set of options. Speak with a NEBA adviser to discuss how to prepare for your family’s education costs.
