Louisville, Ky. (Oct. 11, 2002) -- Pension services concern TIAA-CREF said that it would veer from its direct channel-only sales of 529 college savings plans and introduce commission-based versions of the 13 state-sponsored programs it manages.
TIAA-CREF Tuition Financing Inc., the manager of the Advisor Programs, said it would begin making them available to broker-dealers, investment advisor firms, and banks throughout the country. Programs of Mississippi and
Missouri will be the first two introduced and are slated for launch on Oct 15.
