Collective Investment Trusts
Retirement Target Income CIT
Investment Objective
To provide capital preservation and manage risk for investors who have already reached their target date or who desire minimal capital risk as they move towards a future target date.
Investment Strategy
The portfolio is invested in a conservative mix of securities that seeks preservation of capital, with income and long-term capital growth as secondary objectives. The portfolio is diversified primarily among fixed income securities, typically focusing on short to intermediate-term maturities. A position in various stock investments, which may be focused on dividend paying stocks, adds potential for growth opportunities and income generation. For the most part, this approach favors stability over growth. Stock exposure can range from 13% - 47%.
May be Appropriate for Investors
- Who have reached their target date or are already in retirement and seek to minimize declines in account value with potential for modest capital growth and income generation
- Who have a future target date and want to assume a minimal amount of capital risk through limited stock exposure
- Who prefer to take advantage of professional management through a single, diversified investment portfolio
About Target Date Funds
A target date fund is a single investment portfolio designed to meet an investor’s changing needs over time. The fund gradually shifts from a more aggressive to a more conservative investment objective over the years to reflect an appropriate risk/return trade-off for the investor’s changing time horizon.

A Word About Risk
Each Manning & Napier Retirement Target CIT Fund is invested in one or two of four proprietary risk-based funds, the Manning & Napier Pro-Mix® CIT Funds, based on the Retirement Target CIT Fund becoming increasingly conservative over time. Because the underlying funds invest in both stocks and bonds, the value of your investment will fluctuate in response to stock market movements and changes in interest rates. Investing in target date funds will also involve a number of other risks, including issuer-specific risk, foreign investment risk, and small-cap/mid-cap risk, as the underlying investments change over time. Investments in options and futures, like all derivatives, can be highly volatile and involve risks in addition to the risks of the underlying instrument on which the derivative is based, such as counterparty, correlation and liquidity risk. Also, the use of leverage increases exposure to the market and may magnify potential losses. Principal value is not guaranteed at any time, including at the target date (the approximate year when an investor plans to stop contributions and start periodic withdrawals).
