How should I plan for investment or savings for my baby?

Baby is currently is 9 months and I would like to save or invest. I can set aside around $500 per month for him. This savings / investment purpose is for his further study or just a savings for his future use : buying property or something that he might need. I want to contribute this saving until he is 16 years old ( or whatever age before he is enlisted for NS if applicable )

You have a 15 year investment horizon and can choose to build a globally diversified portfolio of funds starting with higher exposure to equity and slowly reduce risk by going into fixed income.

Or purchase a 15 year child education endowment plan.

Either way I would advise you to speak to a Financial Advisor, as there could be a good mix between using these 2 options.
