The Child Trust Fund (CTF) is a long-term savings
and investment account for children. The Government has introduced
the CTF to:
• ensure your child has savings at the
age of 18
• help your child get into the habit of
saving
• teach your child about the benefits of
saving and
• help your child understand personal
finance.
