Investment objective
The Fund seeks total return over time, consistent with its strategic target asset allocation.
Principal investment strategy
"The Fund is a gateway fund that invests in various master portfolios (""Underlying Funds""), which in turn, invest in a combination of securities to gain exposure to the following asset classes: equity and fixed income (including money market securities). The Fund's investment strategy is to diversify the Fund's investments among these asset classes. The equity Underlying Funds are each intended to provide exposure to a specific market segment. Those segments include U.S. large- and small-capitalization companies, international (non-U.S.) developed and emerging markets, and real estate. The large- and small-cap companies, international developed markets and emerging markets allocations are designed to track (replicate the performance of) indexes created with a proprietary methodology. This methodology is designed to provide exposure to specific factors (or characteristics) that are commonly tied to a stock's potential for enhanced risk-adjusted returns relative to the market.
Those factors include, but are not limited to value, quality, momentum, small size, and low volatility. The process to construct each index begins with a reference index universe and systematically excludes constituents based on their expected contribution to projected risk and return of that overall universe. Each constituent's expected contribution to the overall risk and return of the universe is a function of that constituent's factor exposures and the volatility of each factor. The U.S. large-company and small-cap company indexes are expected to rebalance semi-annually, while the international developed and emerging market indexes are expected to rebalance on a quarterly basis. The large-cap company allocation will be managed to replicate the performance of the Wells Fargo Factor Enhanced Large Cap Index.
The small-cap company allocation will be managed to replicate the performance of the Wells Fargo Factor Enhanced Small Cap Index. The developed international allocation will be managed to replicate the performance of the Wells Fargo Factor Enhanced International Index. The emerging markets allocation will be managed to replicate the performance of the Wells Fargo Factor Enhanced Emerging Market Index. The real estate allocation invests in real estate investment trusts (REITs) and is managed to replicate the performance of the Wells Fargo US REIT Index, a traditional market-capitalization weighted index designed to provide diversified exposure to real estate. The Wells Fargo US REIT Index rebalances quarterly. The fixed income Underlying Funds provide diversified exposure across a wide range of market sectors, including U.S.
Government obligations (including Treasury inflation-protected securities, or TIPS), investment grade corporate bonds, below investment grade bonds (commonly known as ""high yield bonds"" or ""junk bonds""), other U.S. bond sectors (including mortgage- and asset-backed securities), and emerging markets foreign issues. The inflation-protected Treasury and intermediate-term government allocations will be managed to replicate the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays US Treasury Inflation-Linked 1-10 Year Bond Index and the Bloomberg Barclays US Government Intermediate Bond Index, respectively, each a traditional market-capitalization weighted index designed to provide diversified exposure to their respective allocation. Each index rebalances monthly. The investment grade corporate bond and below investment grade corporate bond allocations will be managed to replicate the performance of indexes created with a proprietary index methodology.
The methodology is designed to provide broadly diversified fixed income exposure and is constructed to enhance issuer diversification and liquidity versus other standard traditional passive bond indexes. Specifically, the indexes first reweight the reference index universe of securities to limit concentration in the largest issuers and remove lower liquidity securities. They then reweight across size groupings to better align the yield and duration characteristics of the index with the original reference index, while at the same time maintaining the greater diversification and increased liquidity achieved through the prior step. The indexes rebalance monthly. The investment grade corporate bond allocation will be managed to replicate the performance of the Wells Fargo U.S. Investment Grade Corporate Bond Index.
The below investment grade bond allocation will be managed to replicate the performance of the Wells Fargo U.S. High Yield Bond Index. The U.S. aggregate bond ex-corporate allocation, which includes mortgage- and asset-backed securities, will be managed to replicate the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate ex-Corporate Index, a traditional market-capitalization weighted index designed to provide diversified exposure to the allocation. The index rebalances monthly. The emerging markets bond allocation will be managed to replicate the performance of the JP Morgan EMBI Global Diversified Index, an index that deviates from a traditional market capitalization weighting to provide more robust diversification across its constituent countries; the index rebalances monthly. The ""Today"" designation in the Fund's name is meant to indicate that the Fund is primarily designed for investors either in retirement and/or currently gradually withdrawing funds from their investments.
The Fund does not decrease its equity holdings in an attempt to become increasingly conservative over time, but rather maintains a strategic target allocation to equity and fixed income securities (including money market instruments) in the weights of 30% and 70%, respectively. While the Fund invests exclusively in Underlying Funds that track an index, the Fund does not track a published index. At their discretion, the Fund's portfolio managers may make changes to the Fund's glide path and asset allocation consistent with the Fund's target year. Factors that the portfolio managers may consider include but are not limited to market trends, their outlook for a given market capitalization, and the Underlying Funds' performance in various market conditions.
