Investment portfolio options

CollegeBound 529 offers the freedom to choose the investment options that best fit your unique timeline and savings goals.

Age-Based portfolios

  • Choose portfolios designed to align with the child's expected year of college enrollment.
  • Asset allocations are managed to gradually become more conservative as the expected date of college enrollment nears.
  • Portfolios are offered in two-year increments to closely align the allocations to the optimal portfolio for the child's age.
  • Portfolios are adjusted quarterly to become more conservative and rebalanced monthly to help stay within appropriate risk levels.
  • Portfolios are designed to help outpace the rising costs of higher education.

Target Risk portfolios

  • Choose from three portfolios calibrated to match different levels of risk: conservative, moderate, or growth.
  • A blend of active and passive funds and strategies is chosen to target the desired risk-adjusted returns and cost efficiency.
  • Monthly rebalancing aims to keep the portfolios in line with their target level of risk.

Individual Portfolios

  • Individual portfolios provide access to equity, fixed income, and capital preservation options.
  • Each individual portfolio is invested in a single underlying investment.
  • The lineup of investment portfolios provides a range of building blocks across major asset classes for greater diversification.
