Investment objective & strategy

As of Sept. 26, 2025 · prospectus

Objective. The Fund seeks growth and current income.

Strategy. As a fund-of-funds, the Funds principal investment strategy is to allocate assets among a combination of mutual funds (Underlying Funds) that, in turn, invest directly in a wide range of portfolio securities (like stocks and bonds). The Fund invests its assets in Underlying Funds that invest in securities that seek growth of capital, such as stocks, and securities that generate current income, such as bonds and U.S. government-issued securities. The Fund generally has a lower level of risk than the Aggressive Allocation Lifestyle Fund but a greater level of risk than the Conservative Allocation Lifestyle Fund. The Funds indirect holdings are primarily in domestic and foreign fixed-income securities and equity securities of domestic large-cap companies. The Funds indirect holdings may … As a fund-of-funds, the Funds principal investment strategy is to allocate assets among a combination of mutual funds (Underlying Funds) that, in turn, invest directly in a wide range of portfolio securities (like stocks and bonds). The Fund invests its assets in Underlying Funds that invest in securities that seek growth of capital, such as stocks, and securities that generate current income, such as bonds and U.S. government-issued securities. The Fund generally has a lower level of risk than the Aggressive Allocation Lifestyle Fund but a greater level of risk than the Conservative Allocation Lifestyle Fund. The Funds indirect holdings are primarily in domestic and foreign fixed-income securities and equity securities of domestic large-cap companies. The Funds indirect holdings may also include foreign and domestic equity securities of medium- and small-cap companies, and lower rated fixed-income securities (often referred to as junk bonds), and money market securities. Asset allocation is the most critical investment decision that you make as an investor. Selecting the appropriate combination should be based on your personal investment goals, time horizons and risk tolerance. The projected asset allocation ranges for the Fund are as follows: Domestic Equity Funds 25% - 55% Fixed-Income Funds 30% - 70% International Equity Funds 0% - 25% This Fund is managed so that it can serve as a complete investment program for you or as a core part of your larger portfolio. The Underlying Funds have been selected to represent a reasonable spectrum of investment options for the Fund. The subadviser has based the target investment percentages for the Fund on the degree to which it believes the Underlying Funds, in combination, to be appropriate for the Funds investment objective. The subadviser may change the asset allocation ranges from time to time. In selecting Underlying Funds, the subadviser may choose from other series of VALIC Company I and from unaffiliated money market funds that VALIC has designated available for investment for the Fund. The Underlying Funds includes funds subadvised by the subadviser. Consistent with the Funds objective and strategies, the subadviser is permitted to invest in Underlying Funds it subadvises. When choosing among potential Underlying Funds, the subadviser faces a conflict of interest because it will receive additional fees when it selects Underlying Funds for which it also acts as subadviser. Please refer to the Funds SAI for more information on the sub-advisers conflicts of interest. Although the Fund will generally maintain its assets within the allocations above, the Fund may hold cash or cash equivalents for various purposes, including for temporary defensive purposes. The Underlying Funds in which the Fund invests may engage in active and frequent trading of portfolio securities in an effort to achieve their investment objectives.
