Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2
VIP Balanced Portfolio seeks income and capital growth consistent with reasonable risk.
The fund allocates approximately 60% to equities and 40% to fixed income, selecting stocks and bonds through fundamental analysis of financial condition, industry position, and market conditions across domestic and foreign issuers, with equity exposure diversified across market sectors and managed by multiple Fidelity managers. The fixed-income allocation includes lower-quality debt securities and maintains at least 25% of total assets in senior securities. Because security selection depends on manager analysis rather than a stated benchmark, fund holdings and returns may diverge from any particular index.

Return profile
Total return as filed — price change plus distributions reinvested · trailing figures to 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.
