The Funds asset allocation is designed for investors who are approximately 10 years beyond the normal retirement age of 65. The Fund is a fund of funds and invests in underlying funds of Principal Exchange-Traded Funds (PETF) and Principal Funds, Inc. (PFI). Its underlying funds consist of domestic and foreign equity funds, fixed-income funds, real asset funds, and other funds that aim to offer diversification beyond traditional equity and fixed-income securities. The diversification of the Fund is designed to moderate overall price volatility. The Fund may add, remove, or substitute underlying funds at any time. The Fund is managed with strategic or long-term asset class targets and target ranges. There is a rebalancing strategy that aligns with the target weights to identify asset classes that are either overweight or underweight. The Fund may shift asset class targets in response to normal evaluative processes, the shortening time horizon of the Fund, or changes in market forces or Fund circumstances. In selecting underlying funds and target weights, the Fund considers both quantitative measures (e.g., past performance, expected levels of risk and returns, expense levels, diversification, and style consistency) and qualitative factors (e.g., organizational stability, investment experience, investment and risk management processes, and information, trading, and compliance systems). There are no minimum or maximum percentages of assets that the Fund must invest in a specific asset class or underlying fund. The underlying funds invest in growth and value stocks of large market capitalization companies, fixed-income securities, domestic and foreign securities, securities denominated in foreign currencies, investment companies, securitized products, U.S. government and U.S. government-sponsored securities, and derivatives. A derivative is a financial arrangement, the value of which is derived from, or based on, a traditional security, asset, or market index. The underlying funds principally use futures, options, swaps (including, for example, credit default, interest rate, and currency swaps), and forwards in order to gain exposure to a variety of securities or asset classes or attempt to reduce risk.
