C.R.S. Section 23-3.1-226
Policies for promotion and disclosure of program information

(1)

The authority shall design a policy related to the promotion of the prepaid expense program and a policy related to the disclosure of program-related information to purchasers or qualified beneficiaries in a manner consistent with this part 2 and consistent with the requirements of section 529 of the internal revenue code in order to require that:

(a)

Appropriate promotional material and program-related information disclose the average tuition increase in state institutions of higher education in Colorado, as defined in section 23-3.3-101 (4), over the previous five years;

(b)

Annual statements to purchasers or qualified beneficiaries disclose the number of tuition units paid for, the payments made for such tuition units, and the current value of such tuition units, as well as the average tuition increases in state institutions of higher education in Colorado, as defined in section 23-3.3-101 (4), over the five previous years;

(c)

An annual report to each purchaser of an advance payment contract setting forth the value and rate of return on the advance payment contract based on a calculation of average tuition and setting forth the amount of the stabilization reserve and retained earnings in the prepaid expense program. The report shall be provided at least annually and upon request of the purchaser of the advance payment contract.

(d)

Promotional material and program-related information disclose that no moneys invested in the prepaid expense program are insured by the state of Colorado and that neither the principal deposited nor the investment returned is guaranteed by the state of Colorado. Such material and information shall also disclose the existence of a stabilization reserve to better support its liability.

(e)

Any fees paid from moneys collected pursuant to this part 2 are disclosed in promotional material and program-related information provided to the public and to purchasers or qualified beneficiaries, including disclosure of amounts assessed for payments over time.
