Prior to January : US Mid Cap Equity is represented by the Russell Midcap Total Return. The performance of these models do not reflect advisory fees, commissions or taxes. These asset allocation models represent possible allocations based on responses to questions regarding personal circumstances, financial goals and individual risk tolerance. Asset allocation is only one of the pieces having varying degrees of importance in the overall performance of an investment vehicle. Past performance is never a guarantee of future results. Thus, there is no guarantee or assurances that the portfolio you choose will produce the same results as any of the portfolio asset allocation models illustrated. The estimated expected return rates are forward looking projections based on current market conditions. The following components are considered when determining estimated return rates: forward looking assumptions, historical returns, dividend yield, rate of corporate earnings growth, and changes in the price/ earnings ratio, projected inflation, asset class risk premiums and on more subjective considerations that involve economic forecasting. This information is not intended to be used as the primary basis of investment decisions. Because of individual client requirements, it should not be construed as advice designed to meet particular investment needs of any investor. The illustrated models are based on different indexes which cannot be invested in. Therefore, estimated expected return rates should not be construed as projecting actual returns of your specific investments. International investing involves risks not typically associated with U.S. investing, including currency fluctuation, foreign taxation, political instability and different accounting standards.
