The choice of funds provided with Trans America is extremely limited. For example in the current environment, a low cost Vanguard fund that solely invests in large US companies that issue dividends would be good idea. But such choices are not available. Is there any plans to expand the fund choices?

In response to July 9 at 3:20pm: Our plan does offer a Vanguard Large Cap Value Fund, which pays dividends. The Vanguard Institutional Index Fund is designed to track the performance of S&P's 500 Index, a benchmark in the US Stock Market. It does this by attempting to replicate the target index by investing all of its assets in the stock that comprise the index. As an employer-sponsored retirement plan, all realized earnings and dividends come from any of the available funds grow tax-deferred. As a result, dividends paid on any of the available investments are automatically reinvested.
Funds made available in the plan are monitored and evaluated on a regular basis. For more information, visit nslij.trsreire.com and click on "Fund and Fee Information" on the right side of the home page.
