ING Solution Portfolios

• A portfolio is chosen based on your goal
  retirement year and risk tolerance, and INGs
  professional investment managers do the rest.
• Professional fund managers can be more aggressive
  for those with a longer time horizon and are more
  conservative with those with a shorter time
  horizon.
• Over time, the asset allocations within each
  Portfolio become more conservative as the
  participant moves closer to the time they may
  want to withdraw the assets to help fund their
  retirement.
