Wednesday, June 19, 2002 Luck Be a 529 Its the birthplace of Frank Sinatra. But now the State of New Jersey is no longer singing "My Way", at least with regard to its 529 plan. The state has decided to issue an RFP for its 529 plan, Joe Hurley, ceo for SavingforCollege.com, confirmed for the MutualFundWire.com. Previously, New Jersey administered the 529 plan in-house. "There are competitive reasons for New Jersey to issue this RFP. They have a fairly affluent base of residence, but their program was not growing as much as other states. It is very difficult to manage a 529 program through state agencies these days. So, they are looking for outside management," Hurley contended. Hurley noted that under its current system the New Jersey plan was not open to non-New Jersey residence. Printed from: MFWire.com/story.asp?s=2902 Copyright 2002, InvestmentWires, Inc.
