John Hancock Investments has cut the fees on its suite of target-date Retirement Living Portfolios, according to a release from the company.

The move follows an aggressive price cut announced in 2014, which reduced fees in the target-date series by 20 to 26 basis points. The latest announcement will reduce fees by another nine basis points across all share classes in the suite of target-date funds.

Morningstar's 2016 Target Date Fund Landscape report lists three series of John Hancock target-date funds: John Hancock Retirement Choices; the Retirement Living II series; and the Retirement Living Through series.
