3. INVEST IN FCPIS OR FIPS

The same type of system exists in favor of investment in mutual funds for innovation (FCPI) or local investment funds ( FIP ), which are intended to finance the development of companies that do not are not listed.

Regarding FCPIs , taxpayers can expect a tax reduction of 18% of payments made with a ceiling of €12,000 for a single person or €24,000 for a couple.

Be careful, if the shares are not kept for at least 5 years, you lose the tax advantage and will even have to repay the tax reduction you have obtained.

4. THE PEA

Today, when we talk about tax exemption, we are necessarily talking about the stock savings plan , the PEA is a real essential tool for diversifying your investments and reducing your taxes . It therefore makes it possible to invest on the stock market while being exempt on the capital gains realized after five years of holding the account. The main thing being the date of opening the account, you are not required to fund it regularly and you can pay into it up to a maximum of €150,000.

5. LIFE INSURANCE

After investment in stone, it remains the number one investment in the hearts of the French, it is life insurance . And for good reason ! It is an investment that benefits from many advantages but also from a great flexibility of use. Its more than attractive tax system makes it a great tool for tax exemption and paying less tax .

Indeed, throughout the life of your life insurance policy, capitalized income and interest are tax exempt . Investors can therefore take full advantage of their investment during the 8 years of ownership. Because yes, the holding period is decisive when placing your money on a life insurance contract. At the end of the eight years, all the withdrawals or redemptions that you will make on the contract will be exempt from taxes. On the other hand, the first four years, they will be taxed at 35% then at 15% between five and eight years.

Another important point, the tax allowance allowing you to escape the taxation of capital gains realized on the contracts. Count 4,600 € for a single person and 9,200 € for a couple. Of course, you will only be able to take advantage of this reduction after eight years.

6. PER

Entering into force on October 1, 2019, the retirement savings plan (PER) is a new form of savings plan intended to facilitate management by encompassing all other retirement savings products, such as PERCO, the Madelin law or still the PERP, while offering advantageous taxation. The PER was designed to encourage the French to save for retirement while saving tax.

7. THE PER

The PERP (People’s Retirement Savings Plan), ancestor of the PER, is a common savings product accessible to all. Not only does it make it possible to prepare for retirement by providing an exit nest egg that will provide additional income, but it also allows contributions to be deducted from taxable income. Attention, within the limit of 10% of the net professional income received. Another advantage not to be overlooked: social security contributions are not borne during the period of constitution of the savings and the sums paid into a PERP are not retained for the calculation of the taxable heritage at the IFI, the tax on real estate wealth.
