This fund pools investments in a diversified mix of underlying American Funds, seeking to achieve a balance of growth, income, and capital preservation that evolves over time.

Its portfolio includes large allocations to U.S. and international equities, as well as U.S. and global bonds, reflecting a broad and risk-aware strategy. Designed as a 'set-it-and-forget-it' solution, the fund automatically rebalances and adjusts its holdings over time, making it suitable for retirement savers seeking simplicity and professional management in a single investment vehicle. Its role in the financial market is to provide a comprehensive, lifecycle-based investment option within retirement plans, helping individuals align their portfolios with their anticipated retirement timeline.
