PPS Overview Vid Thumb

The PPS Select program, available to clients through Commonwealth advisors, is a wrap program. In a PPS Select account, each client holds a selection of underlying securities, including open-end mutual funds, closed-end funds, individual stocks, and/or ETFs, in an asset-allocated portfolio. Each PPS Select account consists of a percentage mix of asset classes, composed of domestic and/or international fixed income and equity and alternative asset classes, such as commodities and managed futures. The client’s funds are invested separately by the manager. Target allocations are subject to change.
