This fund's primary objective is to cultivate a balanced portfolio, aiming for both sustained capital growth over the long term and a robust stream of current income, with a distinct emphasis on generating income. Structured as a 'fund of funds,' it typically allocates approximately 40% of its total assets to equity holdings and dedicates the remaining 60% to fixed-income instruments. The fund manager generally directs these investments primarily into other BlackRock-affiliated mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
