About PPFFX

American Funds Preservation Portfolio Class F-3 is a multi-asset mutual fund of funds designed to prioritize preservation of capital while delivering current income. The portfolio allocates primarily to high-quality, short- to intermediate-term fixed income through underlying American Funds, notably Short-Term Bond Fund of America and Intermediate Bond Fund of America, resulting in a conservative duration profile and substantial exposure to U.S. investment-grade securities. It emphasizes government-related and securitized debt, including U.S. Treasuries, agencies, mortgage-backed and asset-backed obligations, with minimal allocation to lower-rated credit. The strategy is managed by Capital Research and Management Company and distributes income monthly, reflecting its income-oriented mandate. With a focus on stability during challenging markets and low portfolio turnover, it serves as a core capital-preservation option for investors seeking limited interest-rate sensitivity and lower volatility within the short-term bond category. The fund’s composition is predominantly U.S. bonds, supplemented by a modest allocation to non-U.S. bonds and cash for liquidity management.
