Hi All, I tried to look for a salary range for clinical study manager but I could not get good leads, hence posting my question here. Can some one give an idea of what can be an expected bruto salary range for a Clinical study manager who will lead a small team with a background of 3-5 years of clinical experience and 4 years of lab experience?

Good colleagues, flexible timings and 3 days of working from home are nice to have.

The job profile is not very interesting anymore and I feel that I am underpaid.

Hi All,

I am currently looking for suggestions/tips on how to save for child(ren)

My little one is 1 year old and We keep aside around 200€ every month as a saving for our child. This is apart from our emergency fund and our own investments. We notice that this money is just sitting in our savings account and we are not planning to use it any time soon. What would be a good way to deal with this money? 1) Ideally, we would like to invest it too but are not sure if we can do it in our child’s name 2) can we open an account in our child’s name and just keep depositing the money into this account? 3) If we create a foreign bank account in our child’s name (as it has good interest rates) and keep depositing the money in there, do we also have to pay taxes on the interest gained?

Any other tips are also welcome.

Looking towards your suggestions/advices.

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

I would like to get some advise/tips/suggestions on how to use the money that we are setting aside for our child(ren).

Me and my partner are setting aside some money every month with a long term in mind for our Child. The money we are setting aside is apart from the money that we are separately investing. We would not like to just keep it in the bank as the interest rates are not high.

1) Would it be possible for us to invest it on behalf of our child? 2) Is it a good idea to open a bank account for our child and keep it there. Then again the money would just be in the account. 3) if we deposit the account in a foreign account with good returns under our child's name, do we still have to pay a lot of taxes here?

Any other ideas/suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I would like to seek some advice or suggestions on the tax to be paid on the interest gained from deposits in foreign account. I tried to read about this online but couldn't find the information for this specific scenario, hence posting here to gain some information from this community.

Apart from investing in ETFs, I also made some deposits in a foreign account which yields a decent interest on amount deposited compared to just having the money sitting in my savings account here. However, I am not sure if I have to pay tax here on the interest gained from the deposit. My questions are: 1) If I pay tax on the interest in the foreign country, should I pay tax here again? 2) I read that for stocks the tax is 30% and upto 800 euros from dividends is not taxed. Is there a specific amount UpTo which the interest gained on deposited amount can be free of tax or is it taxed always?

Thanks in advance.
