About NWOBX
The Nationwide Destination 2050 Fund Class R is a target-date mutual fund designed primarily for individuals planning to retire around the year 2050. This fund’s core purpose is to provide a diversified investment solution that balances potential growth with risk management over a long-term horizon. It achieves this by employing a "fund of funds" approach, primarily investing in a mix of underlying mutual funds that span various asset classes, including equities, bonds, and cash equivalents. As a target-date fund, its asset allocation strategy gradually shifts from higher-risk, growth-oriented investments toward more conservative holdings as the target retirement year approaches, following a predetermined glide path. This structure aims to optimize returns while gradually reducing volatility for investors as they near retirement. The fund is managed by a team of professionals who adjust allocations in line with evolving market conditions and the fund’s timeline. The Nationwide Destination 2050 Fund Class R plays a significant role for retirement savers seeking a single, professionally managed vehicle that automatically adapts to their changing risk profile over time.
