A Savings Account for Every Child Born in Israel: Recommendations for Program Implementation

By CSD • April 22, 2016November 1, 2018

In November 2015, Israel enacted legislation to create and fund a Child Development Account program. Beginning in 2017, every baby born to an insured Israeli resident will receive a Child Development Account in his or her name. This brief details the policy, which was developed in collaboration with researchers at the Center for Social Development, and offers recommendations to guide its implementation.
