American Funds Fundamental Investors® Class F-3 is an open-end mutual fund designed to pursue long-term growth of capital and income.

It maintains a flexible investment mandate, allowing for significant allocations to international equities, including companies domiciled in Europe, Canada, and emerging markets, which broadens its diversification beyond U.S. borders.

This approach is complemented by a relatively low expense ratio and a history of stable income distributions, making it a notable choice among large blend mutual funds.
