Objective
The 2028 Enrollment Option seeks to achieve capital appreciation, income, and preservation of capital as appropriate for proximity to its applicable target date. The target date, included in the name of the option, is the year which corresponds to the potential enrollment year of the Beneficiary. The objective of this option becomes more focused on capital preservation and income as it approaches its target date.
Strategy
The option allocates its assets to underlying funds consisting of mutual funds, ETFs and a funding agreement designed to preserve capital and provide income. The funding agreement is managed by the Principal Insurance Comapany. The option seeks to provide a diversified allocation to broad asset classes, including domestic and international stocks and bonds, real estate, and capital preservation. The underlying funds represent different investment objectives and strategies. The allocations to the asset classes and the underlying funds are expected to change, reducing exposure to stocks and increasing exposure to fixed income and cash equivalents, until the Beneficiaries’ enrollment year. The underlying funds in this option will rebalance on an ongoing basis if they drift from their target allocations. The option will de-risk the asset class allocations on a semi-annual basis.
