LifePath Funds
When you invest, you have lots of important decisions to make:
- What is the right mix of stocks and bonds?
- When do you need to change this mix?
- Do you need to make adjustments because of current market conditions?
LifePath Funds were created to help you with these decisions. Depending on your time horizon and how you feel about risk, the investment mix of the LifePath Funds you may select continually adjusts as you get closer to needing your money. The benefits of LifePath include:
Extensive Diversification
The Funds are made up of the three broadest asset classes -- stocks, bonds and money market instruments -- that can help you become a successful investor.
Active Management
Investment professionals manage the investment mix of each Fund to try and create the optimal mix of risk and return for each stage of the Fund.
A Personalized Approach
You decide when you'll need your money and how you feel about risk, and then consider a Fund that is tailored to help meet these needs.
