The NextGen College Investing Plan offers a variety of investment options in two separate series – the Client Select Series and the Client Direct Series. Each series offers different investment options, each with its own sales charges, fees and expense structure. Expenses associated with the Client Direct Series will generally be lower than those associated with the Client Select Series. Currently, some of the same investment options are available in each series.
