About RPPGX
American Funds Preservation Portfolio Class R-6 is a fund-of-funds designed to deliver current income while emphasizing preservation of capital. It allocates primarily to high-quality, short- and intermediate-term bond strategies managed within the American Funds family, with no equity exposure. The portfolio is constructed to maintain relatively low interest-rate sensitivity and credit risk, focusing on sectors such as U.S. Treasuries, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, and investment-grade corporate bonds, with modest exposure to non-U.S. debt. The strategy pays regular monthly dividends and targets stability through broad fixed-income diversification and disciplined rebalancing. Managed by Capital Group’s Portfolio Solutions Committee, the product reflects a conservative profile suitable for retirement plan menus and other income-oriented mandates seeking reduced volatility. Key characteristics include a low expense structure for the share class, short-term bond categorization, and benchmark alignment with short-duration U.S. government/credit indices to anchor risk and return expectations. As of mid-2025, the portfolio’s asset base is sizable, underscoring its role as a core capital preservation option within fixed-income allocations.
