Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2

The investment objective of BlackRock LifePath Index 2035 Fund (LifePath Index 2035 Fund or the Fund), a series of BlackRock Funds III (the Trust), is to seek to provide for retirement outcomes based on quantitatively measured risk. In pursuit of this objective, LifePath Index 2035 Fund will be broadly diversified across global asset classes, with asset allocations becoming more conservative over time.

Strategy · summarised

The fund allocates assets among underlying equity index funds, bond index funds, and money market funds according to a custom benchmark index, employing a passive management approach to track that benchmark. The asset allocation shifts along a predetermined glide path, becoming progressively more conservative as the target retirement date of 2035 approaches, moving from 99% equities to 40% equities and 60% fixed income at the target date. The fund may periodically adjust the proportion of equity and fixed-income funds based on assessment of market conditions and risk characteristics, which could cause performance to diverge from its benchmark.

Mar 2026 has been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so it is not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.

This fund changed legal form during the period shown. The history above is continuous — it spans both eras, and the change is not a gap in reporting.
