About LTMUX

MFS Lifetime 2045 Fund Class R4 is a target-date mutual fund designed for investors planning to retire around the year 2045. Its primary function is to seek a high level of total return by allocating assets across a diversified mix of underlying MFS mutual funds, with an investment strategy that evolves over time. Early in its lifecycle, the fund emphasizes growth by holding a higher allocation to equities, including significant exposure to sectors such as information technology, financials, and industrials. As the 2045 target date approaches, its asset allocation gradually shifts to a more conservative stance, increasing the proportion of fixed income and other defensive investments to help mitigate risk and support income generation in retirement. The fund offers investors broad diversification, professional oversight, and disciplined risk management through an automatically rebalancing portfolio. It is structured to provide a convenient, comprehensive solution for long-term retirement planning, adapting its risk profile to match investors’ changing needs as they near and reach retirement age.
