Portfolio Objectives
Fund 100 is the most aggressive of the target portfolios and seeks maximum capital appreciation by investing approximately 93% of its net assets in a broad range of domestic and international equity investment funds. The remaining 7% of its net assets are invested in real asset investment funds. This strategy is only appropriate for investors who have longer time horizons, who are comfortable with an increased level of risk while seeking higher longer-term returns, or who use this investment option as part of an overall college savings strategy that includes less aggressive investments.
