            529 Quarterly Commentary

            Explore the three different ways to invest in the Advisor-Guided 529 Plan to find the right solution for your college planning needs.

            1. Age Based Portfolios 2. Asset Allocation Portfolios 3. Individual Portfolios
            1. Age Based Portfolios

            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.

            How does it work?

            Select this option and let J.P. Morgan handle the rest.

            Select your target age to view the related portfolio.

            The asset allocation shown in the above chart represents strategic allocations as of August 23, 2019, and may be modified over short to intermediate term.

            2. Asset Allocation Portfolios

            Asset Allocation Portfolios

            Like the age-based portfolio, these portfolios are broadly diversified across markets and portfolio managers. The difference is that the asset mix in an asset allocation portfolio stays the same unless you and your financial professional decide to switch to a different investment pursuing a different objective.

            How does it work?

            • Choose your portfolio(s)
            • Switch portfolios as your needs change over time

            Select your portfolio

            3. Individual Portfolios

            Individual Portfolios

            For maximum customization potential, you and your financial professional can choose individual portfolios, each investing in a single underlying asset class. Select one individual portfolio to round out your existing holdings or combine several to create and control an asset mix customized to your specific needs.
