About RILDX

The American Funds Inflation Linked Bond Fund Class R-4 is an open-end mutual fund specializing in providing investors with protection against inflation while generating income through a diversified portfolio. Its primary function is to invest in securities that help shield purchasing power from inflationary pressures, with a focus on inflation-linked bonds issued by the U.S. Treasury, non-U.S. governments, and select corporate entities. At least 80% of the fund’s assets are allocated to these inflation-linked bonds, primarily those guaranteed or sponsored by the U.S. government, along with smaller allocations to corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities. Managed by Capital Research and Management Company, the fund targets securities with high credit ratings, aiming for both stability and effective inflation hedging. With a net expense ratio of 0.64% and substantial total net assets, the fund plays a significant role in the inflation-protected bond category. It serves institutional and individual investors seeking a long-term approach to preserve real value in fixed income portfolios, particularly during periods of rising or volatile inflation.
