The Vanguard Age-Based Option: Moderate Growth Portfolio in a 529 college savings plan is a type of age-based investment strategy designed to balance growth and risk, adjusting automatically as the beneficiary gets older and closer to college age.
Here’s what it typically includes:
🧾 Vanguard Age-Based Moderate Growth Portfolio (529 Plan)
📊 Goal:
Provide moderate growth while reducing risk gradually as the child approaches college.
🔁 Automatic Glide Path:
The portfolio shifts its asset allocation over time:
• Younger children (0–5 years): Higher allocation to stocks (e.g., 70–80%) for long-term growth.
• Middle school age (6–12): More balanced, e.g., 60% stocks / 40% bonds.
• High school age (13–18): Becomes more conservative — increased bonds and short-term investments to preserve capital.
• College age (18+): Primarily bonds and money market to reduce volatility.
💼 Typical Asset Allocation (Midpoint Example):
(Exact breakdown may vary slightly by plan and age band, but generally includes):
• U.S. Total Stock Market Index Fund
• International Stock Market Index Fund
• Total Bond Market Index Fund
• International Bond Index Fund
• Possibly money market or short-term bond funds in later stages
🛡️ Risk Level:
• Designed for investors who want a balance between risk and return
• Less aggressive than the "aggressive growth" track
• More growth potential than the "conservative" track
