SSgA Upromise 529 - College Date Portfolios

College Date Portfolios

College Date Portfolios are designed to make investing as easy as selecting the year in which the beneficiary is expected to start college. With a College Date investment option, the portfolio's investment track is automatically adjusted from more aggressive to more conservative as your beneficiary grows older (and closer to the selected college date year). Each Portfolio is powered by SPDR ETFs and features global diversification, tactical asset allocation, and utilization of passive exchange traded funds.¹

Over 10 asset classes selected for broad diversification
Implementation through ETFs for target exposure
Quarterly rebalance for smooth transition between asset classes to mitigate risk
Aged-based portfolio's glide path de-risks as college matriculation approaches
No allocations to global equities and REITs starting at the period 3 years prior to college matriculation
Short duration to mitigate interest rate risk 3 years prior to college and during college years to protect against downside risk

You could lose money by investing in a portfolio which includes the State Street Institutional Treasury Money Market Fund (the “underlying fund”). Although the money market fund in which your investment option invests (the “underlying fund”) seeks to preserve its value at $1.00 per share, the underlying fund cannot guarantee it will do so.

An investment in this investment option is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The underlying fund’s sponsor has no legal obligation to provide financial support to the underlying fund, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the underlying fund at any time.

Investment returns are not guaranteed, and you could lose money by investing in the SSGA Upromise 529. Investments in bonds are subject to interest rate, credit, and inflation risk.

Asset Allocation is a method of diversification which positions assets among major investment categories. Asset Allocation may be used in an effort to manage risk and enhance returns. It does not, however, guarantee a profit or protect against loss.

Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss.

Note: Under the federal tax rules governing all 529 plans, you may reallocate your investment twice per calendar year or when you change the beneficiary on an account to a qualifying member of the family without incurring federal income tax or penalties. You may change how your future contributions are allocated at any time.

¹Although they invest in ETFs and/or mutual funds, the SSGA Upromise 529 Plan Portfolios are not ETFs or mutual funds themselves. An account owner will own units of the portfolio, which are municipal securities, not shares of the ETFs or mutual funds.

Please Note: Before you invest, consider whether your or the beneficiary’s home state offers any state tax or other state benefits such as financial aid, scholarship funds, and protection from creditors that are only available for investments in that state’s qualified tuition program. You should also consult your financial, tax, or other advisor to learn more about how state-based benefits (or any limitations) would apply to your specific circumstances. You also may wish to contact directly your home state’s 529 college savings plan(s), or any other 529 plan, to learn more about those plans’ features, benefits, and limitations. Keep in mind that state-based benefits should be one of many appropriately weighted factors to be considered when making an investment decision.
