T. Rowe Price Retirement Funds

A simplified solution for your retirement plan investing.

A convenient approach to investing.

The target date investments in your plan, the T. Rowe Price Retirement Funds, are designed to help grow your savings in your working years, becoming increasingly more conservative over time. Each is a single, professionally managed investment that evolves up to and throughout retirement.

Gliding into retirement.

A single target date investment is made up of a combination of stocks and bonds. This means that, whichever you choose, you get a fully diversified portfolio that invests in hundreds or thousands of securities. 

The chart below shows how the allocation to stocks and bonds automatically adjusts over time, following an investing approach called a glide path. Each target date investment will continue to evolve up to the target retirement year*, and for 30 years beyond, to help your savings continue working.

*Expected retirement age of 65.

Asset allocation cannot assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.

Which target date investment is right for you?

Simply choose the investment with the target date closest to the year you plan to retire (assumed to be age 65). Or make a selection based on the year you were born.

Depending on your risk tolerance, time horizon, and financial situation, you may consider a Retirement Fund with a different target date.

Each Retirement Fund offers a diversified asset allocation designed for investors who will turn 65 and retire in or near the stated year. This chart can help you understand which Retirement Fund available in your plan is closest to the year you turn 65.

If you were born... The fund designed for your age group is:
In 2003 or after Retirement 2070 Fund
1998 - 2002 Retirement 2065 Fund
1993 - 1997 Retirement 2060 Fund
1988 - 1992 Retirement 2055 Fund
1983 - 1987 Retirement 2050 Fund
1978 - 1982 Retirement 2045 Fund
1973 - 1977 Retirement 2040 Fund
1968 - 1972 Retirement 2035 Fund
1963 - 1967 Retirement 2030 Fund
1958 - 1962 Retirement 2025 Fund
1953 - 1957 Retirement 2020 Fund
1948 - 1952 Retirement 2015 Fund
1943 - 1947 Retirement 2010 Fund
In 1942 or before Retirement 2005 Fund

Depending on your risk tolerance, time horizon, and financial situation, you may consider a Retirement Fund with a different target date. You may change your investment at any time. Contact your plan's recordkeeper.

About T. Rowe Price


Retirement is at the heart of what we do. We offer financial solutions that adjust to needs and life stages—to, through, and beyond retirement.

The principal value of the Retirement Funds is not guaranteed at any time, including at or after the target date, which is the approximate year an investor plans to retire (assumed to be age 65) and likely stop making new investments in the fund. If an investor plans to retire significantly earlier or later than age 65, the funds may not be an appropriate investment even if the investor is retiring on or near the target date. The funds’ allocations among a broad range of underlying T. Rowe Price stock and bond funds will change over time. The funds emphasize potential capital appreciation during the early phases of retirement asset accumulation, balance the need for appreciation with the need for income as retirement approaches, and focus on supporting an income stream over a long-term postretirement withdrawal horizon. The funds are not designed for a lump-sum redemption at the target date and do not guarantee a particular level of income. The funds maintain a substantial allocation to equities both prior to and after the target date, which can result in greater volatility over shorter time horizons.
