The Illinois State Treasurer has a request for proposal for future program management services of the new Bright Directions advisor-sold 529 plan.

The new program manager will facilitate successful consolidation of these two plans. The proposal deadline is December 9, 2016, 2:00pm Central time.
The current program manager contract for the Bright Directions 529 plan will expire on July 19, 2017.
