Asset Allocation

One-step investing

Professional managers adjust the fund’s asset allocation

Fixed-income Funds

Equities and Real Estate Securities Funds

The chart is only a visual representation of the lifecycle fund fixed-income and equity percentages. Please refer to the prospectus for the funds for more details on asset allocation for each of the target date funds.

As with all mutual funds, the principal value of a lifecycle fund isn’t guaranteed. Also, please note that the lifecycle fund represents an approximate date when investors may plan to begin withdrawing from the fund. After the lifecycle fund has been reached, some of these funds may be merged into a fund with a more stable asset allocation. However, there is no need to withdraw the funds at that lifecycle fund .

Lifecycle Funds provide age-appropriate allocations

As with all mutual funds, the principal value of a Lifecycle Fund isn’t guaranteed. Also, please note that the target date of the Lifecycle Fund is an approximate date when investors may plan to begin withdrawing from the fund. Approximately seven to ten years after a Lifecycle Fund’s target date, the fund may merge into the Lifecycle Retirement Income Fund or a similar fund.

The charts are only visual representations of the target date, fixed income and equity percentages. Please refer to the prospectus for the funds for more details on asset allocation for each of the target date funds.

TIAA-CREF Lifecycle Funds share the risks associated with the types of securities held by each of the underlying funds in which they invest. In addition to the fees and expenses associated with the Lifecycle Funds, there is exposure to the fees and expenses associated with the underlying mutual funds as well.
