Stanford University offers two tax deferred programs for employees: Tax-Deferred Annuity (TDA) and Stanford Contributory Retirement Plan (SCRP). For both plans, it offers 4 investment options. Option 1 includes Vanguard's 11 target retirement funds. This is the default option. Option 2 offers 4 Vanguard low-cost core funds. This core funds option is a simplistic design for a plan, similar to Federal Employee Thrifty Savings Plan (TSP). Option 3 consists of 3 TIAA-CREF fixed and variable annuities and Option 4 is called expanded option that allows employees to access a wide selection of funds through Fidelity BrokerageLink.

Investment model portfolios
We provide two types of investment model portfolios for Stanford University Tax-Deferred Annuity and Contributory Retirement Plan Core Funds participants. You can customize and follow a model portfolio in your plan account.
Types of portfolio strategies
- Strategic asset allocation portfolio: It invests in a diversified portfolio of multiple assets, buy-and-hold without frequently changing the asset allocation weights.
- Suitable: For long-term (more than 15 years, preferably more than 20 years), want to be tax efficient and can withstand interim drawdown or loss as high as 50% or more.
- Pros:
- Less error-prone
- Infrequent rebalancing or transactions
- Tax efficient for taxable brokerage investments
- Cons:
- Interim loss or drawdown can be substantial
- Possible low returns for an extended period, such as 10 years or longer
- Tactical asset allocation portfolio: it invests in a diversified portfolio of multiple assets, dynamically adjust stock and bond allocations to minimize losses during market stress.
- Suitable: For long-term (more than 10 years or preferably longer) capital. Investors are willing to rebalance as frequent as monthly.
- Pros:
- Reduce large interim loss or drawdown
- Less sensitive to investment entry point
- Likely to improve returns
- Cons
- Demand more frequent rebalancing or transactions
- Less tax efficient — more suitable in a tax-deferred account such as 401(k) or IRA
- Can experience a period of lower returns compared to a broad-based strategic allocation or a buy-and-hold benchmark, especially in some bull markets
These portfolios are proactively monitored and rebalanced on a monthly basis when needed, ensuring it remains in line with its target allocation.
