About NWOAX
Nationwide Destination 2050 Fund Class A is a target-date mutual fund designed for individuals planning to retire around the year 2050. Its primary function is to provide a diversified investment solution that automatically adjusts its asset allocation over time. The fund initially allocates a higher proportion to equity and growth-oriented assets to pursue capital appreciation while gradually shifting towards more conservative holdings, such as fixed income and cash equivalents, as the designated retirement year approaches. This dynamic allocation strategy, known as a glide path, is intended to balance growth potential with risk mitigation as investors near retirement. The fund uses a multi-asset approach, investing in a professionally selected mix of domestic and international stocks, bonds, and other securities, often through underlying funds. This structure supports broad diversification and aims to simplify long-term retirement investing for participants by automatically managing risk and return according to the target retirement date. The Nationwide Destination 2050 Fund Class A plays a key role in the retirement planning sector, catering to investors seeking a hands-off, time-based investment vehicle that evolves with their retirement timeline.
