About LEKIX
BlackRock LifePath ESG Index 2040 Fund Institutional Shares is a target date mutual fund designed to help investors prepare for retirement around the year 2040. This fund adopts a diversified, multi-asset approach by investing primarily in global equity and fixed income index funds that are chosen for their adherence to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria. A distinctive feature is its investment glide path: as the target date approaches, the fund gradually shifts its allocation from equities toward more conservative fixed income instruments to help manage risk as investors near retirement. The fund aims to deliver returns comparable to conventional global indexes while maximizing exposure to companies and bonds with higher ESG ratings. Its holdings span U.S. and international stocks, bonds, and inflation-protected securities, with an ongoing focus on sustainability and responsible investing. The BlackRock LifePath ESG Index 2040 Fund plays a significant role for institutional investors and retirement plan participants seeking a single, professionally managed solution that aligns retirement planning with ESG principles in the broader financial market.
