If you don t want to worry about trying to time the market, consider the LVIP Managed Risk Profile Funds, which are structured to offer multiple levels of diversification for your investments. 1 Go with the approach that s easiest and works best for you. Take advantage of dollar cost averaging and automatic rebalancing 3 to further ensure that your asset allocation strategy remains aligned with your risk tolerance and investment objectives. Investments 6 1 Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against loss. Dollar cost averaging is an optional program that enables you to systematically reallocate specified dollar amounts from the fixed or money market accounts to the variable accounts on a monthly basis, up until the first policy anniversary while the ONE Rider is in effect. By allocating funds on a regular basis as opposed to a one-time allocation, you may reduce the average cost per unit over time. Neither dollar cost averaging (DCA) nor portfolio rebalancing assures a profit or protects against loss in declining markets. Because dollar cost averaging involves continuous investment in securities, regardless of fluctuating price levels. You need to consider if you ll be in a position to continue purchasing through periods of low price levels. 3 Quarterly automatic rebalancing is required with the Optimal No-Lapse Enhancement (ONE) Rider and will begin at the end of the first quarter following the first policy anniversary, when dollar cost averaging is selected. Automatic rebalancing ensures that the original allocation is maintained regardless of the performance of your investment options. Please note: If automatic rebalancing is terminated, the ONE Rider and its protection will likewise be terminated and cannot be reinstated.
