Lump Sum Investment Plans and their uses

Life is a journey that takes many twists and turns along the way. The direction your future takes is coloured by the choices you make at key times. Those who make the most of their opportunities are the individuals that plan for the inevitable and prepare for the unexpected. The lack of certainty as to what the future holds shouldn’t stop you from planning ahead – particularly when it comes to your finances.

There will be occasions when you have money available that you don’t need for day-to-day commitments and it is always tempting to spend your cash on the things you enjoy. At these times, individuals with foresight make choices that help them take a positive step towards future financial independence. Choice, from Generali, is designed to help the discerning investor who decides to take that step.
