About MFFSX

MFS Lifetime 2050 Fund Class A is a target-date mutual fund designed to deliver a high level of total return aligned with an investor retiring around 2050. It follows a progressively shifting glide path that emphasizes capital growth in the early years and transitions toward risk mitigation and income as the target date approaches, implementing disciplined, active risk management across underlying MFS funds. The portfolio provides broad diversification in a single vehicle, allocating across U.S. and international equities, fixed income, real assets, and commodities through actively managed MFS strategies, with periodic rebalancing to maintain its strategic mix. The fund seeks total return before and after the target date, changing its asset allocation over time to balance growth and downside resilience. It is part of a long-running series with a 2010 inception for this share class and meaningful assets under management, reflecting adoption within the target-date category. The approach is benchmark-aware and incorporates a structured process led by experienced managers, aiming to couple multi-asset breadth with active security selection to address lifecycle investing needs.
