Fund Details
JPMorgan SmartRetirement® 2070 R5 Overview
JPMorgan SmartRetirement® 2070 R5 (JAJZX) is an actively managed Allocation Target-Date 2070+ fund. JPMorgan launched the fund in 2026.

The fund is designed to provide exposure to equity, fixed income and cash/cash equivalent asset classes by investing in mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs) within the same group of investment companies (i.e., J.P. Morgan Funds), passive ETFs that are managed by unaffiliated investment advisers in certain limited instances and/or direct investments in securities and other financial instruments.

Assets Under Management
