Investment Options
Whether you want to grow assets for college or preserve what you've already earned, the Advisor-Guided Plan offers investment options to meet your unique goals, timeframe and risk tolerance.
Your professional can help you choose from three distinct approaches to gain access to underlying funds from J.P. Morgan as well as exchange-traded funds from State Street Global Advisors.
Age-Based Portfolio
This approach simplifies investing to one easy decision. Your assets start in a globally diversified portfolio appropriate for the account beneficiary’s age and then automatically become more conservative as college gets closer. The goal is to maximize return potential in early years and reduce risks when you need to protect capital and generate income for college expenses.
