Luis Sierra Speaking at College Savings Plan Network 2024 Virtual Prepaid Tuition Plan Mini Conference 4/10

April 03, 2024

On Wednesday, April 10, Luis Sierra, CFA will be speaking at the 2024 College Savings Plan Network Prepaid Tuition Plan Mini Conference, being held virtually.

Luis will be joining a panel entitled, “Well-Funded Plans: Where Do We Go From Here?” with several investment professionals, described as follows: Most Prepaid Plans are in the enviable position today of being overfunded in comparison to our future participant obligations. This session will look at how we arrived in this position by reviewing the forces that led us to this overfunding. Should something in our fundamentals change (e.g. unit price, underlying actuarial assumptions, asset allocation of our investments)? Then, we have to ask what do we do with the surpluses? And finally, do we change Plan elements going forward?

The College Savings Plans Network (CSPN), an affiliate of the National Association of State Treasurers (NAST), is a national non-profit association and the leading objective source of information about Section 529 College Savings Plans and Prepaid Tuition Plans — popular, convenient, and tax-advantaged ways to save for college.
