Helps target the investment options best suited to your retirement goal

12 diversified portfolios, based on various risk tolerances and time horizons
Application of asset allocation and diversification concepts does not ensure safety of principal andinterest. It is possible to lose money by investing in securities.
What is GoalMaker?
The asset allocation models are provided as samples and not as investment recommendations. The model portfolios are based on generally accepted investment practices and take into account the principles of modern portfolio theory, in which allocations are adjusted in an effort to achieve maximum returns for a given level of risk. You may want to consider other assets, income, and investments you may have before applying these models to your individual situation. Consult the prospectus for information about how the portfolio manager invests the assets of any particular investment option. Proposed allocations assume a retirement withdrawal period of 15 years. Past performance of investments or asset classes does not guarantee future results.
Your Asset Allocation
Application of asset allocation and diversification concepts does not ensure safety of principal and interest. It is possible to lose money by investing in securities. The GoalMaker portfolios are subject to change including, for example, the replacement of investment options and allocations within the portfolios. You will be notified in writing in advance of such changes.
