Variable Portfolio Managed Volatility Moderate Growth Fund (the Fund) pursues total return while seeking to manage the Funds exposure to equity market volatility.

Strategy · summarised

The fund is a fund of funds that invests 40% to 90% of assets in affiliated underlying funds, some managed by Columbia Management and others by subadvisers, while deploying derivatives, ETFs, and fixed-income securities to adjust its equity market exposure based on volatility assessments. The fund targets effective equity exposure ranging from 0% to 70% of net assets, reducing this exposure when equity volatility is high and increasing it when volatility is low. Because the fund's equity exposure and underlying fund allocations fluctuate based on the investment manager's volatility assessments rather than a fixed rule, actual returns may diverge materially from those of its blended benchmark. The fund may use leverage through derivatives, potentially creating losses exceeding amounts invested.

These positions come to 107.05% of the fund's net assets. This counts only what the fund reported holding — the holdings disclosure covers assets, not liabilities such as borrowings — so it is not expected to reconcile to 100%.

Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.

Cumulative return· Jul 2023 – Apr 2026

May 2026 and Jun 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are 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.
