About RHGTX

The American Funds 2040 Target Date Retirement Fund R-5E is a target-date mutual fund designed primarily for individuals seeking a simplified approach to retirement savings. Its core purpose is to provide a diversified, all-in-one investment solution for those planning to retire around the year 2040. The fund achieves this by investing in a diversified mix of underlying American Funds, which span a broad range of asset classes, including U.S. and international equities, fixed income, and balanced strategies. As the target date approaches, the fund systematically shifts its allocation toward a greater emphasis on income generation and capital preservation, gradually reducing its equity exposure and increasing the proportion of fixed income and more conservative investments. Managed by Capital Research and Management Company, a long-established and research-focused investment manager, the fund leverages the expertise of multiple portfolio managers and the collective strength of its underlying funds. With a low expense ratio and a disciplined glide path, the fund aims to balance growth potential in earlier years with risk management as retirement nears, making it a cornerstone option for long-term retirement planning within employer-sponsored plans and other retirement accounts.
