What are the investment choices offered in a Section 529 plan?
There is a variety of investment options from which to choose, including growth and income funds and more conservative investments such as money market funds. Many plans offer an age-based fund, which offers investments that have been targeted to a child’s time horizon for entering college. In choosing a plan, the number of investment choices and fees associated with the plan should be considered. In most plans investment choices may be changed once every 12 months, sooner if you are changing the beneficiary.
