NEW YORK, March 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Mutual of America Capital Management LLC (“Capital Management”) is pleased to announce that its target-date series of funds, the MoA Clear Passage Funds™, received 10 2024 LSEG Lipper Fund Awards. Part of a $23 billion fund family, the MoA Clear Passage Funds were recognized in the U.S. mixed-asset target-date fund categories. Capital Management also won best overall small firm in the U.S. Group Award mixed-assets category. The Group Award includes the MoA Clear Passage Funds, the MoA Retirement Income Fund, three MoA Allocation Funds and the MoA Balanced Fund.
“A hallmark of our MoA Clear Passage Funds is our specialized approach to asset allocation and glide-path construction, so we are proud that these attributes contributed to the recognition from LSEG Lipper,” said Stephen Rich, Chairman and CEO of Capital Management. “Our focus on blending active and passive investment strategies to manage portfolios through retirement has been successful for our investors for 30 years, and these awards honor our steadfast commitment to help them achieve a successful retirement outcome.”
MoA Clear Passage Funds, made available to investors outside of Mutual of America’s retirement plan participants for the first time in 2023, focus on diversification and conservative risk management, and feature dynamic and strategic investment allocations leading up to a specified retirement date and, importantly, a 10-year glide path beyond that date.
“Our team are experts in assessing and evaluating the returns and correlation of various asset classes and their associated risks—it’s in our DNA. This focus allows investors to enjoy the benefits of a dynamic and diversified portfolio,” said Jamie Zendel, Executive Vice President, Head of Quantitative Strategies, and Co-Portfolio Manager for the target-date series. “We are honored that our target-date series of funds was recognized by LSEG Lipper, and I’d like to thank our talented team for their exceptional efforts.”

The LSEG Lipper Fund Awards, granted annually, highlight funds and fund companies that have excelled in delivering consistently strong, risk-adjusted performance relative to their peers. The LSEG Lipper Fund Awards are based on the Lipper Leader for Consistent Return rating, which is an objective, quantitative, risk-adjusted performance measure calculated over 36, 60 and 120 months. The fund with the highest Lipper Leader for Consistent Return (Effective Return) value in each eligible classification wins the LSEG Lipper Fund Award. For more information, see lipperfundawards.com. Although LSEG Lipper makes reasonable efforts to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data used to calculate the awards, their accuracy is not guaranteed.
Asset class group awards will be given to the best large and small groups separately. Large fund family groups with at least five equity, five bond or three mixed-asset portfolios in the respective asset classes are eligible for a group award. Small fund family groups will need to have at least three distinct portfolios in one of the asset classes—equity, bond or mixed-asset. The lowest average decile rank of the three years’ Consistent Return measure of the eligible funds per asset class and group will determine the asset class group award winner over the three-year period. In cases of identical results, the lower average percentile rank will determine the winner.
