A Cost Conscious Approach Combining Active Fixed Income With Passive Equity
(firmenpresse) - NEWPORT BEACH, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/21/15 -- PIMCO, a leading global investment management firm, is expanding its target-date fund offerings with RealPath Blend, which is designed to help investors build wealth while generating enough income to sustain their lifestyles throughout retirement.
"Underpinning RealPath Blend is the same philosophy we've been following since 2008: it's not just how much you have at retirement, it's how much you can afford in retirement that really counts," said Rick Fulford, Executive Vice President and Head of U.S. Retirement at PIMCO.
Powered by the same unique glide path used in RealPath, which is PIMCO's fully active target date solution, RealPath Blend optimizes cost without compromising value by combining active management for fixed income and passive indexing for equity allocations.
PIMCO's distinctive glide path includes investments beyond traditional stocks and bonds that can help deliver strong returns in a variety of market scenarios. In addition, RealPath Blend's explicit focus on downside risk management should limit potential losses in challenging markets.
"RealPath Blend seeks to give savers the confidence and certainty they deserve when planning for retirement by smoothing the experience and helping them stay invested throughout market cycles," said Fulford.
