Characteristics of the Future Invest Bon

Discover the many advantages of this individual life insurance policy.

  

Premiums

You pay one or more premiums during the first year. Your capital grows steadily over a period of 8 years and 1 month. The minimum amount is €2,500 for the initial premium and €1,500 for additional premiums.

Flexibility

You can dispose of your capital, in whole or in part, whenever you want. Redemption is even possible without fees (withholding tax remains due) if the redeemed amount represents less than 10% of your total reserve, with a maximum of €50,000 per year. Early redemption may result in a financial correction that, in certain circumstances, can have a significant impact on the redemption value.

Tax benefits

The term of your contract is 8 years and 1 month, with the possibility of extension up to 10 years. Under current tax regulations, subject to future changes, no 30% withholding tax applies to interest earned. However, if you withdraw funds within 8 years of signing the contract, a 30% withholding tax will be due. For this type of investment, capital gains may be subject to a 10% tax on profits if redeemed after 8 years and/or at final maturity.

Monitoring of your Future Invest Bon

You receive an annual detailed statement of your contract, including any allocated profit-sharing component. You can also consult the status of your contract at any time via Easy Banking Web.

Returns

The overall return (excluding fees and taxes) of your Future Invest Bon consists of two consecutive guaranteed interest rates, known from the start of the contract, and a potential profit sharing component.

Guaranteed interest rates (as of 21 February 2026)

  • Guaranteed interest rate of 3.00% applicable to premiums paid (excluding tax and entry fees), for the first year.
  • Guaranteed interest rate of 2.60% applicable to the accumulated savings, for the remaining contract term.

For additional premiums paid within the first year following the contract’s start date, the guaranteed interest rates in effect at the time of payment apply.

If the contract is extended, the guaranteed interest rate remains the same as that applicable for the remaining term, i.e., 2.60%.

Performance scenarios, based on the methodology imposed by the PRIIPS Regulation (EU Regulation 1286/2014), are included in the Key Information Document (in French).

Annual profit-sharing component

If AG records positive annual results, you may be eligible for a share of the profits.

This potential profit-sharing benefit is not, however, guaranteed. It varies depending on AG's results and the economic situation. Moreover, the higher the guaranteed interest rate, the less likely it is that a significant profit-sharing component will be granted. In certain circumstances, it could be low or zero.

Once allocated, the profit-sharing component becomes an integral part of the reserve. The guaranteed interest rate then applies to the total reserve, which includes premiums paid and any allocated profit-sharing bonuses.

The insurer has no legal or contractual obligation to grant a profit-sharing component.

What happens in case of death?

What happens if you pass away before the end of your contract?

The accumulated capital, increased by any profit-sharing components, is then paid out to the beneficiaries you have designated. Inheritance tax may be due on the paid-out amount.

Responsible investment policy

With the Future Invest Bon, you choose for an investment product that promotes environmental and/or social characteristics. In this context, our partner AG applies various strategies, such as:

  • integration of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors (e.g. using ESG risk scores)
  • exclusion of controversial activities (tobacco, armaments, coal, unconventional energy sources such as tar sands, shale gas and oil, etc.)
  • exclusion of companies that do not respect the principles of the United Nations Global Compact
  • a "best-in-class" approach
  • active ownership

This branch 21 investment product takes into account environmental and/or social characteristics but does not pursue a sustainable investment objective per se. You can find more information on the strategies AG applies to its branch 21 products in this document (in French).

The Towards Sustainability label

The Future Invest Bon holds the Towards Sustainability label, a quality benchmark for sustainable investments.

Its integrity is ensured through independent verification by the Central Labelling Agency (CLA). This benchmark establishes requirements at both the portfolio and investment process levels. To earn the label, a financial product must meet these minimum criteria.

The criteria combine rules on exclusions, impact, engagement, transparency, and accountability. For further details about the label, visit the Central Labelling Agency’s website.

Obtaining this label does not mean that the Future Invest Bon meets your own sustainability objectives.

Duration, fees and taxes

Duration

  • 8 years and 1 month
  • Possible extension to 10 years: If the total premiums paid amount to €50,000 or more, and no payment request or other instruction is submitted by the final maturity date of the contract, it will be automatically extended to 10 years. The guaranteed interest rate during this extension remains at 2.60% (the same as the rate applied after the first year).

Fees

Entry fees (included in the premiums paid): 3.50% if the initial premium and any additional payments made during the first year total less than €25,000. If you invest at least €25,000, the entry fees are reduced to 3%.

Management fees: 0%.

Exit fees
No exit fees or financial adjustment (market value adjustment) apply

  • At the final maturity date of the contract, in the event of the insured’s death, or if the contract is extended.
  • For partial or periodic free withdrawals within the same calendar year, where the cumulative amount is less than 10% of the accumulated reserve (with an annual cap of €50,000).

Early withdrawal/redemption within the first 8 years of the contract can have a negative impact on the invested and guaranteed capital on two levels:

  • A redemption fee of 1% of the theoretical redemption value is due when the aggregate amount of the free partial/periodic redemptions exceeds 10% of the accumulated capital, except for withdrawals from the 8th year of the contract onwards. Fees will also apply if the aggregate amount of the redemptions surpasses €50,000, except for withdrawals from the 8th year of the contract onwards.
  • To protect the interests of other policyholders, it is also possible that the redemption value/amount paid may be adjusted downwards. This financial adjustment is not automatic. It depends on the difference in market conditions between the time of the payment of the premium and the time of redemption. Its calculation and parameters are legally regulated. You can find more information about this potential recalculation, including a numerical example on the AG’s website (in French).

Taxation

  • Insurance premium tax: 2% included in the premiums paid.
  • Withholding tax on investment income: If surrendered within the first 8 years, a 30% withholding tax applies to the interest. However, the taxable net amount cannot be lower than the amount corresponding to interest capitalization at an annual rate of 4.75%.
  • Capital gains tax: This type of investment may be subject to a 10% tax on capital gains in the event of surrender after 8 years and/or at final maturity.
  • In the event of death: The death benefit is not subject to income tax but is generally subject to inheritance tax.

This tax treatment applies to individual investors in Belgium and may be modified in the future. Other categories of investors are invited to inform themselves about the tax treatment applicable to them.

Risks related to the Future Invest Bon

  • This product is protected by the Guarantee Fund based on the protection regime applicable to branch 21 products. In case of AG's default, this Fund intervenes up to €100,000 per policyholder and per insurance company. For amounts exceeding €100,000, only the first €100,000 is guaranteed. The saver therefore bears the risk of losing all or part of the excess amount.
  • Future Invest Bon offers a guaranteed interest rate and a potential profit-sharing component. If the latter is low or zero, it is possible that the paid-out capital will be lower than the total premiums paid, due to taxes, fees and the low level of interest rates.
  • A rise in inflation leads to a loss of returns for all savers and investors. The risk of a negative real rate (guaranteed rate minus inflation) is all the more important as inflation is high.
