About RILFX

American Funds Inflation Linked Bond Fund Class R-6 is a mutual fund designed to provide inflation protection and income through investments primarily in inflation-linked securities. It normally allocates at least 80% of its assets to inflation-linked bonds issued by U.S. and non-U.S. governments, their agencies or instrumentalities, and certain floating-rate corporate issues, with a focus on high-quality debt securities rated Aa3 or better, or AA- or better, at the time of purchase. The fund emphasizes U.S. Treasury bonds and notes, alongside smaller exposures to corporate bonds, non-U.S. government securities, asset-backed obligations, and mortgage-backed obligations. This strategy helps preserve investors' purchasing power against inflation while generating income, making it suitable for those seeking a diversified bond portfolio with moderate interest rate sensitivity and high credit quality. Managed by Capital Research and Management Company, the fund serves retirement plans and long-term investors focused on fixed-income stability in inflationary environments.
