If your children have already built up some wealth of their own at KBC, they can turn to the services of a private banker who'll be their unique and dedicated contact. They will also be able to count on the extensive investment expertise and exclusive product range of KBC Private Banking.

Tangible benefits for you and your family

As KBC Private Banking clients, you and your children enjoy numerous benefits. The examples provided depend on individual situations:

1. Preferential rates for home loans

Planning to buy, build or renovate your dream home? If so, you’ll naturally want a loan tailored to your needs. Your private banker and our loan expert will get together to make sure that’s exactly what you get. Together they will study your plans and suggest the most appropriate financial solution for you and your children.

2. Cashback on non-life insurance

If you are a parent and have a Life Solutions contract, your children will receive a 2% discount on their non-life insurance policies. It is awarded each year at the end of February in the form of a cashback payment.

3. Silver Pack – the free payment service for your children

Your children receive a Silver Pack, our free payment service. Included in the Silver Pack:

  • A KBC Plus Account (a current account with debit card)
  • A KBC Credit Card* with optional add-on ‘Shopping Package’ free of charge
