About PLNTX
The Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2045 Fund R6 is a target-date mutual fund designed to help investors save for retirement with a projected retirement year around 2045. Its primary function is to provide a **blend of long-term capital growth and current income** by dynamically adjusting its asset allocation strategy as the target date approaches. The fund achieves this by investing in a diversified portfolio of underlying Principal funds, spanning domestic and international equities, real assets, alternative investments, and fixed income instruments. Notably, as the fund’s target year draws closer, the portfolio gradually becomes more conservative by increasing exposure to bonds and other lower-risk assets while reducing equity holdings, aligning with investors’ decreasing risk tolerance as retirement nears. The Principal LifeTime Hybrid 2045 Fund R6 plays a key role in the retirement investment landscape by offering a professionally managed, all-in-one solution that regularly rebalances and optimizes its allocations for individuals planning to retire around 2045. Its multi-asset, globally diversified approach provides exposure to a variety of sectors and markets. The fund is intended for investors seeking a hands-off, long-term investment vehicle that automatically adjusts risk over time to meet evolving retirement needs, though neither the principal nor underlying assets are guaranteed at any time.
