About FSZAX

Fidelity Advisor Sustainable Target Date 2050 Fund Class M is a target-date mutual fund designed for investors planning to retire around the year 2050. This fund's principal goal is to achieve a high total return up to its target date by investing in a diversified portfolio that shifts asset allocation over time—gradually transitioning from higher exposure to growth-oriented assets, like equities, toward more income-focused and lower-risk investments as the retirement date approaches. A defining feature of the fund is its sustained emphasis on responsible investing: it primarily invests in underlying securities that meet rigorous proprietary Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) criteria, integrating both quantitative data and qualitative analysis into issuer evaluations. The fund actively avoids companies significantly involved in excluded industries based on sustainability principles. Managed by an experienced Fidelity team, it aligns its allocation with a pre-determined 'glide path,' and may be consolidated into a more income-oriented fund after the target date. Its structure provides participants with an integrated approach to long-term growth, risk management, and sustainability within a single investment vehicle, serving as a foundational solution for individuals' retirement planning needs.
