Pru Introduces Target Funds


Prudential Investments has offered its Target wrap fee program to high-net-worth individuals since 1993, and now it also offers six new mutual funds to its retail clients based on those wrap portfolios -- the Target Funds. Each is advised by an asset management firm typically associated with institutional money management.
