Managed accounts

Give your clients and their employees a retirement readiness boost.

56% of participants plead to having "limited knowledge of investment options".¹

Retirement planning as unique as each participant.

Offering a managed account option in the retirement plan can help you and your clients reach participants in a more personalized way. Managed accounts can help with some of the big questions they have—how much to save, how to invest, when to retire, and more. And by adding a managed account option, it can help participants become more engaged and may lead to increased confidence in their retirement planning.

Important information

Carefully consider the Fund’s objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. Contact your financial professional or visit principal.com for a prospectus, or summary prospectus if available, containing this and other information. Please read it carefully before investing.

Investment and insurance products are:

Not insured by the FDIC or any federal government agency
Not a deposit or other obligation of or guaranteed by credit union or bank
Subject to investment risks, including possible loss of the principal amount invested

Asset allocation and diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against a loss. Equity investment options involve greater risk, including heightened volatility, than fixed-income investment options. Fixed-income investments are subject to interest rate risk; as interest rates rise their value will decline. International and global investing involves greater risks such as currency fluctuations, political/social instability and differing accounting standards. These risks are magnified in emerging markets. Fixed-income and asset allocation investment options that invest in mortgage securities are subject to increased risk due to real estate exposure.

There is no guarantee that a target date investment will provide adequate income at or through retirement. Participants may also choose a portfolio with a target date that does not match the intended retirement date. Compare the different portfolios to see how the mix of investments might shift.
