Past performance is not a guarantee of future results.
The benchmark is composed of 60% Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500”) and 40% Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (“BC Agg”) and assumes monthly rebalancing. The S&P 500 is an unmanaged index and is widely regarded as the standard for measuring U.S. stock market performance. It represents the 500 most widely held U.S. publicly traded companies. The BC Agg is an unmanaged index which is widely regarded as the standard for measuring U.S. investment grade bond market performance. It includes all non-convertible, fixed-rate debt issues rated investment grade or higher. These indexes do not incur expenses and are not available for investment. Index returns reflect the reinvestment of interest and/or dividends. The benchmark performance is not, however, directly comparable to the composites’ performance because accounts in the composites generally do not maintain a strictly 60% equities/ 40% fixed income allocation. Additionally the S&P 500 Index performance is not directly comparable to the composite’s equity performance because equities in the composite accounts generally invest by using a portfolio of 30-40 stocks and the S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged index that is widely regarded as the standard for measuring U.S. stock market performance. Finally, fixed income investments in the accounts may be in a wide range of fixed income credit qualities and maturities and the BC Aggregate Index is an unmanaged index that is is widely regarded as the standard for measuring U.S. investment grade bond market performance.
