Read MoreHide Full Article

It is never too late to invest in mutual funds for retirement. As such, if you plan to invest in some of the best funds, the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank can provide you with valuable guidance.

The best way to shortlist great mutual funds is to ensure solid performance, diversification, and low fees. Some are better than others, but utilizing the Zacks Mutual Fund Rank, we have identified three mutual funds that could be solid additions to one's retirement portfolio.

Let's take a look at some of our top-ranked mutual funds with the lowest fees.

American Funds Growth Portfolio C (GWPCX) has a 1.1% expense ratio and 0% management fee. GWPCX is a Large Cap Growth option; these mutual funds purchase stakes in numerous large U.S. companies that are expected to develop and grow at a faster rate than other large-cap stocks. With yearly returns of 12.34% over the last five years, this fund clearly wins.

American Beacon Large Cap Value Investor (AAGPX - Free Report) is a stand out amongst its peers. AAGPX is a Large Cap Value mutual fund, which invests in stocks with a market cap of $10 billion of more, but whose share prices do not reflect their intrinsic value. With five-year annualized performance of 15.63%, expense ratio of 0.94% and management fee of 0.55%, this diversified fund is an attractive buy with a strong history of performance.

LSV Global Managed Volatility Instl (LSVFX). Expense ratio: 0.75%. Management fee: 0.6%. Five year annual return: 11.81%. LSVFX is a Global - Equity mutual fund, which invests their assets in large markets, leveraging the global economy.

We hope that your investment advisor (if you use one) has you invested in one or all of the top-ranked mutual funds we've reviewed. But if that isn't the case, it might be time to have a conversation or reconsider this vitally important relationship.
