Education Savings

The Institute seeks to advance initiatives that help investors save for education and other long-term goals.

While most parents today expect their children to receive a postsecondary education, research shows that only one-third say they expect to be prepared to pay for their child's education. To encourage greater savings for education expenses and to make education financially accessible to more Americans, federal and state lawmakers have developed innovative programs, like qualified tuitions programs (529 plans) and Coverdell Education Savings Accounts.

The Institute is committed to working with federal and state officials and other policymakers in initiatives to help the public understand the importance of saving for education.
