Its share classes cost 0.76%–1.01% a year. Over the 12 months to May 2026, it returned 20.8%, with dividends reinvested. In 2026 Q2 it added 492 new positions and exited 486.
The investment objective of BlackRock Global Allocation V.I. Fund (the Fund) is to seek high total investment return.
The fund seeks high total return by allocating across equity, debt, and money market securities globally, with management selecting undervalued equities and debt securities of varying maturities and credit quality, including up to 35% in junk bonds and distressed securities. The fund maintains at least 30% of assets in foreign securities, government debt, or companies deriving substantial revenue outside the U.S., and actively manages currency exposure through derivatives. Commodity exposure is obtained through investment in a wholly-owned Cayman Islands subsidiary, which may invest without limitation in commodity-related instruments. Because returns depend on the manager's security selection and market timing decisions, performance will diverge from any benchmark.

What the fund is made of
Percentages are of fund net assets. Rounding, liabilities and short positions can make totals differ from 100%.
| Stocks | 71.64% |
| Bonds | 13.52% |
| Securitized | 6.38% |
| Loans | 3.94% |
| 2 smaller | 6.63% |
| Derivatives | -0.05% |
The outer band is exposure held short — written against the portfolio rather than part of it, which is why it sits outside the ring and why the two are never netted into one figure.
Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.

How it has done
C000007938 share class · total returns with dividends reinvested
Volatility over the last 12 months: 10.67%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.
Jun 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.

Net is what a holder pays after the adviser's contractual waiver; gross is before it. A waiver can expire.
Turnover is how much of the portfolio was replaced in a year.

Debt profile
What this fund holds — value-weighted across its bond and securitized long positions · as of 2026-06-30
Share of the fund's debt by how its coupon behaves — the fact that decides whether a rate move reaches this portfolio at all.
| Fixed rate | 61.5% |
| Floating rate | 37.0% |
| Zero-coupon or unclassified | 1.4% |
Share of the fund's debt value in each maturity band, shortest first.
| <1y | 4.9% |
| 1-3y | 12.3% |
| 3-5y | 29.3% |
| 5-10y | 29.2% |
| 10y+ | 24.2% |
These three overlap — one holding can be in arrears and paying in kind at once — so they are shown separately and never summed.
Risk profile
Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2
More of this fund’s sensitivity sits in credit spreads than in interest rates — a rate rally that comes with a credit selloff works against it.
Where the loss would come from. The two shocks are the same size, so this is the balance of the fund's two sensitivities rather than a bet on one moving more.
| Credit spreads | 58% |
| Interest rates | 42% |
Filers report the impact of a 0.01% move only, so the total is our own scaling of that one number and overstates the loss on most bonds — read it as approximate, never as precise. The two sensitivities overlap rather than add up: they measure the same positions against different shocks, which is why the durations above are shown side by side and never summed.
Share of the fund's spread duration carried by each credit tier.
| High yield | +2.13 yr |
| Investment grade | +0.37 yr |
Share of duration at each point, shortest first. This filer signs its rate and credit disclosures differently; the direction shown follows its interest-rate filing, and a negative reading is the least-supported figure here.
| 1 yr | 0.34 yr | 19% |
| 5 yr | 0.92 yr | 52% |
| 10 yr | 0.20 yr | 11% |
| 30 yr | 0.31 yr | 18% |
3 mo is NEGATIVE (-0.00 yr) — a deliberate hedge at that point on the curve, so it is not part of the band above.
| 3 mo | 0.29 yr | 11% |
| 1 yr | 0.36 yr | 13% |
| 5 yr | 1.63 yr | 61% |
| 10 yr | 0.39 yr | 15% |
30 yr is NEGATIVE (-0.17 yr) — a deliberate hedge at that point on the curve, so it is not part of the band above.
The two bands measure the same positions against different shocks and do not add — a Treasury carries rate duration and no spread duration, a floating-rate credit the reverse. Rate tenors are also summed across every currency the fund discloses.

Duration contribution in years, summing to the fund's 1.78 yr.
This is where the fund's rate exposure sits, not its currency risk — most international bond funds hedge the currency back to dollars, and the size of those hedges is not in the filing. Tenors are also summed across curves, so a 5-year JPY point and a 5-year USD point are added together.
