What type of investor are you? Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. has solutions for each investor type 5
What is a Reality Investing-Managed Account? • A managed account is a professionally managed portfolio that is personalized and tailored to a particular investor’s needs and circumstances. • You supply information about your goals, risk tolerance, and personal finances (both inside and outside of the Plan), etc. • An investment advisor picks a diversified allocation of investment options from the Plan to fit your unique situation and retirement goals and automatically implements the portfolio for you. • Your account is automatically reviewed every three months to make sure your portfolio stay aligned with your goals. Any needed adjustments occur automatically. • An annual fee based on your account balance will be assessed to your account quarterly. 6 Source: Reality Investing Overview www.hoosierstart.gwrs.com
Is a Reality Investing-Managed Account for me? A managed account may be an appropriate choice if: • You want a professionally managed portfolio designed around your specific and unique goals and objectives • You want a professional continuously evaluating your portfolio and adjusting it automatically • You want to integrate your portfolio with assets outside of the Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. plan • You want to be reminded regularly to review your financial position and portfolio A managed account may not be the best choice for you if: • You want to choose your own fund options or asset styles • You do not want to pay an asset-based fee for professional advice 7
What is a Target-Date Fund? • A target-date fund is a professionally managed option offered to participants that sets the asset allocation of the option based on the time horizon of the participant. • A target-date fund is geared toward a date in the future—retirement • A target-date fund is designed to be a single option solution for participants who lack the time, knowledge, or desire to construct their own portfolio allocations. • A target-date fund periodically and automatically resets the asset allocation based on the time horizon. • Target-date funds invest more aggressively at younger ages to maximize saving and accumulation and as a participant nears retirement the fund gradually invests more conservative to prepare for the income need. • The target-date options are monitored by Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. and changes are automatically made when and if necessary. 8
Is a Target-Date Fund for me? A Target-Date Fund may be an appropriate choice if: • You want a professionally managed option designed to diversify your portfolio • You want to choose an option and “forget it” • You want a simple choice • You want automatic and regular rebalancing A Target-Date Fund may not be the best choice for you if: • Your risk-tolerance doesn’t match the target-date’s asset allocation • You want to choose your own fund options or asset styles • You want a static asset allocation over time 9
Common mistakes when using Target-Date funds Chasing Returns or basing selection of the Target-date fund only on past performance— Because a consistent strategy is utilized in constructing the target-date fund line up, over or underperformance of the target-date options is most likely based on the amount of equities in the fund. Investing in more than one Target-date fund— The target-date funds in the Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. Plan are designed to be professionally managed, pre-diversified options, therefore, investing in more than one target-date option does not result in more diversification. Failing to understand the Target-date funds’ asset allocation and failing to monitor the option selected— Despite being professionally managed and monitored, participants should make sure the Target-date fund’s allocation is in-line with their risk-tolerance and return objective and should review the options periodically. 10
What is offered in my Plan? • Currently the Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. plan offers six target-date options for participants just beginning employment through participants in their retirement years. • Coming Soon, the plan will offer nine target-date options to better help Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. participants in preparing for retirement. • Also soon, as part of the roll-down process, the Indiana 2010 option will merge into the Indiana Retirement option and the Indiana 2050 option will be added to the Plan. 11
Current Target-Date Options in HoosierS.T.A.R.T. • Currently the Target-Date offerings are spread out in 10 year increments with the addition of the 2010 option closer to retirement. • The Target-Date offerings represent a blend of the same Core options that are offered in the Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. plan. 12
Changes coming to the Target-Date Options • The Indiana 2010 Fund will merge into the Indiana Retirement Fund • Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. will soon offer Target-Date Options in 5 year increments for all ages and incorporate an Inflation-Linked fund 13
Large Cap U.S. Equity Small Cap U.S. Equity Non-U.S. Equity U.S. Fixed Income Stable Value Inflation-Linked Illustration of how Target-date funds are designed Equities can provide growth during early years while account balances are still low and future contributions are expected to be high. Age 25 Age 30 As retirement approaches, the investment mix automatically shifts toward stable, income generating assets. Age 35 The combination of Inflation-Linked and Stable Value are designed to provide a participant with the income that they need in retirement, while simultaneously protecting them from rising inflation. Age 40 Age 45 Age 50 Age 55 Age 60 Age 65+ • For early savers, the Target-date funds begin with a more aggressive allocation to maximize savings and provide more growth. • As the participant moves toward retirement, the portfolio gradually moves from more aggressive to more conservative to protect the portfolio from adverse markets and provide more income. 14
What is a Core option? • Core options are provided to Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. participants who choose to construct their own portfolio allocations to best reflect their return objectives and risk-tolerance. • Or for participants that want to build a portfolio with a particular “bias”, such as U.S. stocks only or Large company stocks only. • Or for participants who wish to combine and manage their entire portfolio combined (IRAs, ASA Plan, Joint Account, Hoosier START) and select the best options from each plan in combination. • The core options are designed to provide participants with a broad array of asset classes and styles in order to build a broadly diversified portfolio of stocks and bonds. 15
Is a Core option for me? Core Options may be an appropriate choice if: • You want to build your own portfolio • You want to manage your portfolio until retirement • You want a broader selection of asset styles or wish to invest around a particular bias • You want to manage the timing and rate of allocation changes in the portfolio Core Options may not be the best choice for you if: • You are not sure how to diversify your portfolio • You are not sure how to choose among different funds • You do not want to regularly monitor the asset allocation or performance of your portfolio and investment options 16
What is offered in my Plan? • Currently the Hoosier S.T.A.R.T. plan offers seven core options • Each core option is selected to represent a distinct asset class and/or style in order to allow participants to build broadly diversified portfolios 17
