We offer a range of share classes designed to meet the needs of retirement plan sponsors and participants. The different share classes incorporate varying levels of advisor compensation and service provider payments. Because Class R-6 shares do not include any recordkeeping payments, expenses are lower and results are higher. Other share classes that include recordkeeping costs have higher expenses and lower results than Class R-6.Class R-6 shares were first offered on November 8, 2019. Class R-6 share results prior to the date of first sale are hypothetical based on the results of the original share class of the fund, adjusted for typical estimated expenses.
