About MBGWX

MFS Growth Allocation Fund Class B is a mutual fund that seeks to achieve a high level of total return by balancing long-term capital appreciation with current income. The fund operates as a fund-of-funds, meaning it primarily invests in a diverse selection of underlying MFS-managed mutual funds, rather than direct securities. Its allocation typically includes broad exposure to U.S. and international equities, fixed income, and specialty asset classes—approximately 52% in U.S. stock funds, 20% in bond funds, 20% in international stock funds, and about 8% in specialty funds, such as commodities and real estate. The strategy is overseen by a team of quantitative investment professionals applying disciplined, risk-based portfolio management and systematic rebalancing to maintain its target risk profile, which is set at a level greater than moderate relative to other MFS asset allocation options. This structure provides investors with one-stop access to a globally diversified and actively managed portfolio, aiming for consistent risk-return characteristics. Benchmarking against the S&P 500, the fund is suitable for investors seeking diversified exposure across major asset classes through a single investment product, while benefiting from MFS’s research and multi-level risk controls.
