About RILGX
American Funds Inflation Linked Bond Fund Class R-2E is a mutual fund focused on delivering inflation protection and income by primarily investing in inflation-linked securities. The fund's core holdings consist largely of U.S. Treasury bonds and notes, representing the majority of its portfolio, with smaller allocations to corporate bonds, asset-backed obligations, mortgage-backed securities, and select non-U.S. government and agency securities. Its principal objective is to help investors preserve purchasing power as inflation rises, making it a key offering in the inflation-protected bond sector. The fund is managed with a disciplined approach that combines a diversified bond selection with a risk profile consistent with its peer group. Distributed income is provided through regular dividends, and the fund has a history of emphasizing both capital preservation in inflationary environments and steady income generation. It is commonly utilized by investors seeking a degree of hedge against inflation within a broader fixed income allocation, and it plays a significant role in portfolios aiming for real-return exposure and reduced vulnerability to inflation-driven erosion of asset value.
