About FBCIX
American Funds Capital Income Builder Class 529-F-2 is an open-end mutual fund designed to deliver a level of current income that exceeds the average yield of U.S. stocks, while also aiming to provide a growing income stream and long-term capital appreciation. The fund invests at least 90% of its assets in income-producing securities, with at least half of its portfolio allocated to common stocks and other equity securities. Its holdings may span both U.S. and international markets, covering a broad selection of income-generating assets including stocks and bonds. This fund is managed using a multiple-manager approach, in which different segments of the portfolio are overseen by individual managers who operate within a disciplined, research-driven investment framework. The investment strategy emphasizes securities that the managers believe offer attractive long-term value, but portfolio positions may be adjusted if the investment case changes. With quarterly dividend distributions and a focus on both income generation and measured capital growth, this fund is particularly notable among world allocation funds for its size, consistent income focus, and diversified holdings across sectors and geographies.
