Product summary

Vanguard Target Enrollment 2042/2043 Portfolio offers a diversified portfolio that adjusts its underlying asset mix over time. The portfolio’s underlying funds provide broad diversification while incrementally decreasing exposure to stocks and increasing exposure to bonds as each portfolio’s target enrollment date approaches. The funds continue to adjust until their allocations match that of the Vanguard Commencement Portfolio. Investors in the portfolio should be able to tolerate the risks that come from the volatility of the stock and bond markets. You may wish to consider this fund if the beneficiary is planning to enroll in school between 2042 and 2043.

Fund management

The portfolio does not employ an investment advisor, but it benefits from the investment advisory services of the underlying Vanguard mutual fund(s) in which it invests.
