| Performance & Operating Costs | ||
| For the period ending June 30, 1999 | ||
| State Comptroller Nancy Wyman | ||
The State of Connecticut's Deferred Compensation Plan lets you invest your contributions with any one of these three financial services organizations: Aetna Investment Services, Inc., Hartford Life Insurance Company and Phoenix Investment Partners. As you review your choices, remember to select the one financial services organization that offers the investment options and products that best match your personal financial goals.
The charts on the following pages will help you evaluate your choices. They show the historical rates of return for each financial services organization's available investment options and the various operating fees that may be assessed against these options.
The rates of return columns are "net of expenses" and reflect the actual returns that would be applied to your account. This means that they already exclude the operating fees a financial services organization may charge you for managing, investing or marketing a particular investment option. Operating expenses appear in separate columns.
When comparing two similarly styled mutual funds or annuity options, be sure to:
Since each financial services organization offers similar investment opportunities, it's a good idea to review the materials from each of these organizations before you make your decision as to where to invest your money.
HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE & OPERATING FEES
These charts show the historical rates of return and operating expenses for each financial services organization's mutual funds and annuity options for the quarter ending June 30, 1999. These investment options are listed alphabetically within each level of risk, and the annuity investment options appear in italic print. Contact the individual financial services organization for more information about each investment option.
