Investment Information
Investment Performances:
*There are three portfolios from which to choose from: Aggressive, Moderate and Conservative. The Aggressive Portfolio is suited for the investor with more than 20 years to retire and a high tolerance for volatility and risk. Participants who have at least ten years until retirement and prefer average risk should consider the Moderate Portfolio. The Conservative Portfolio is designed to minimize the risk of losing capital because the participant only has 5 years or less to retire. Usually the returns on a conservative allocation will be far less than an aggressive approach, however, so should the losses. Fill out the Risk Profile to find out which portfolio is right for you.
