<sup>1</sup>

Brighthouse Investment Advisers, LLC has contractually agreed, for the period May 1, 2026 through April 30, 2027, to reduce the Management Fee. This arrangement may be modified or discontinued prior to April 30, 2027, only with the approval of the Board of Trustees of the Portfolio.

**Example**

The following Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Portfolio with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in

the Portfolio for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year, that the Portfolio's operating expenses remain the same, and that all fee waivers for the Portfolio will expire after one year. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **1 Year** | **3 Years** | **5 Years** | **10 Years** |
| Class B | &nbsp;&nbsp; $103 | &nbsp;&nbsp; $324 | &nbsp;&nbsp; $562 | &nbsp;&nbsp; $1247 |

---

**Portfolio Turnover**

The Portfolio pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in annual portfolio operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Portfolio's performance. <br>During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio's portfolio turnover rate was 97% of the average value of its portfolio.

**Principal Investment Strategies**

PanAgora Asset Management, Inc. ("PanAgora" or "Subadviser"), the subadviser to the Portfolio, pursues an investment strategy designed to generate returns from a combination of asset classes with diversified risk characteristics. PanAgora will allocate the Portfolio's assets among equities, fixed-income instruments and commodities. PanAgora will allocate the Portfolio's assets among these asset classes in an effort to diversify the Portfolio's risk over three areas: equity risk, fixed-income risk and inflation risk. The Portfolio's risk diversified strategy is managed to target an annualized volatility level of 10% as discussed below.

In allocating assets among the different classes, PanAgora follows a proprietary "Risk Parity" approach, which seeks to balance the allocation of risk across asset classes (as measured by forecasted volatility, marginal contribution to volatility, estimated potential loss, and other proprietary measures) when building the Portfolio. For example, the Portfolio will generally allocate a greater portion of its assets to a lower risk asset class, such as

------

developed market bonds, than to a higher risk asset class, such as global equities. In its "neutral" position, the Portfolio's assets will be allocated among the different asset classes in an attempt to diversify the Portfolio's risk exposure so that the anticipated contribution of each asset class to the overall risk of the Portfolio will be approximately as follows: 40% from equity risk; 40% from fixed income risk; and 20% from inflation risk. However, there is no assurance that this targeted contribution of risk from each asset class can be achieved. Because of the difference in the amount of risk inherent in these asset classes, the percentage of the Portfolio's assets allocated to each asset class is likely to be significantly different from the targeted risk expected from that asset class. PanAgora also expects to tactically vary the Portfolio's allocation to the asset classes, using long and/or short positions, depending on market conditions, which will cause the Portfolio to deviate from its neutral position. The targeted overall risk level of the Portfolio may also be increased or decreased by PanAgora, depending on market conditions. Additionally, market movements are likely to change the risk levels and risk allocation of the Portfolio.

Following are the instruments expected to be utilized, either through direct investment in physical securities or through derivative instruments, including primarily futures and swaps on futures, to gain exposure to the different areas of risk:

*Exposure to equity risk*: global developed markets large-cap equities, global emerging markets equities, U.S. mid-cap equities, and U.S. small cap equities.

*Exposure to fixed income risk*: global developed market bonds.

*Exposure to inflation risk*: global inflation linked government bonds, including Treasury Inflation Protected Securities ("TIPS"), commodity futures and swaps, and emerging markets currencies, including through cash bonds and currency forwards.

The Portfolio may also integrate a currency portfolio basket (comprised of US Dollar and other currencies) to offer additional diversification to the Portfolio as well as help in the management of investment risks.

The Portfolio may also invest in exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"), exchange-traded notes, and money market instruments.

PanAgora will normally target an annualized volatility level for the Portfolio of 10%; however, the actual or realized volatility for longer or shorter periods may be materially higher or lower depending on market conditions, and therefore the Portfolio's risk exposure may be materially higher or lower than the level targeted by the portfolio managers. Volatility is a statistical measurement of the magnitude of up and down fluctuations in the value of a financial instrument or index over time. High volatility may result from rapid and dramatic price swings. PanAgora may also, under certain exceptional market conditions, target a lower volatility level for the Portfolio. While PanAgora

attempts to manage the Portfolio's volatility exposure to stabilize performance, there can be no assurance that the Portfolio will achieve the targeted volatility.

The Portfolio is non-diversified, which means that it can hold securities of a smaller number of issuers and can invest a larger percentage of its assets in a single issuer than a diversified portfolio.

The Portfolio has no geographic limits on where its investments may be located or where its assets may be exposed, except that its investments in (and exposure to) fixed income securities will be limited to those issued by governments or corporate entities located in developed markets. The Portfolio may invest in or have exposure to equity securities of companies of any market capitalization, including securities of small capitalization companies. The Portfolio may invest in debt securities of any credit quality, maturity or duration.

As a result of the Portfolio's use of derivative instruments, the Portfolio may at times have leveraged exposure to one or more asset classes. The Portfolio's use of futures contracts, forward contracts, swaps and certain other derivative instruments will have the effect of economic leverage. Economic leverage magnifies exposure to the swings in prices of the asset class underlying those instruments and results in increased volatility, which means the Portfolio will have the potential for greater gains, as well as the potential for greater losses, than if the Portfolio does not use derivative instruments that have a leveraging effect. Leveraging also tends to magnify, sometimes significantly, the effect of any increase or decrease in the Portfolio's exposure to an asset class and may cause the Portfolio's net asset value to be volatile. There is no assurance that the Portfolio's use of derivative instruments providing enhanced exposure will enable the Portfolio to achieve its investment objective. The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and the rules and interpretations thereunder impose certain limitations on the Portfolio's ability to use leverage.

The Portfolio may allocate up to 25% of its total assets to its wholly-owned and controlled subsidiary, organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands as an exempted company (the "Subsidiary"), in order to gain exposure to the commodities markets within the limitations of the federal tax laws, rules and regulations that apply to regulated investment companies. PanAgora also manages the assets of the Subsidiary. Generally, the Subsidiary will invest primarily in commodity futures and swaps on commodity futures but it may also invest in other commodity-related instruments such as financial futures, option and swap contracts, equity and fixed income securities, cash and cash equivalents, pooled investment vehicles, including those that are not registered pursuant to the 1940 Act, and other investments intended to serve as margin or collateral for the Subsidiary's derivative positions. Unlike the Portfolio, the Subsidiary may invest without limitation in commodity-linked derivatives. The Portfolio and the Subsidiary will be subject to

**PanAgora Global Diversified Risk Portfolio**

**2**

------

the Portfolio's fundamental investment restrictions and compliance policies and procedures on a consolidated basis. The Portfolio is the sole shareholder of the Subsidiary and does not expect shares of the Subsidiary to be offered or sold to other investors.

A significant portion of the assets of the Portfolio may be invested directly or indirectly in money market instruments, which may include, but are not limited to, U.S. Government securities (including U.S. Treasury bills), U.S. Government agency securities, investment grade corporate obligations, Eurodollar obligations, bankers' acceptances, short-term fixed income securities, overnight and/or fixed term repurchase agreements, money market fund shares, and cash and cash equivalents with one year or less term to maturity. These cash or cash equivalent holdings serve as collateral for the derivative positions the Portfolio takes and also earn income for the Portfolio. While the Portfolio normally does not engage in borrowing, leverage will be created when the Portfolio engages in futures transactions or uses certain other derivative instruments.

**Principal Risks**

As with all mutual funds, there is no guarantee that the Portfolio will achieve its investment objective. You could lose money by investing in the Portfolio. An investment in the Portfolio through a Contract is not a deposit or obligation of, or guaranteed by, any bank, and is not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board, or any other agency of the U.S. Government.

The value of your investment in the Portfolio may be affected by one or more of the following risks, which are described in more detail in "Principal Risks of Investing in the Portfolio" in the Prospectus. The significance of any specific risk to an investment in the Portfolio will vary over time, depending on the composition of the Portfolio, market conditions, and other factors. You should read all of the risk information presented below carefully, because any one or more of these risks could cause the Portfolio's return, the price of the Portfolio's shares or the Portfolio's yield to fluctuate. In addition, there can be no assurance that employing a "risk balanced" approach will achieve any particular level or return or will, in fact, reduce volatility or potential loss.

**Volatility Management Risk.** Although the Subadviser attempts to adjust the Portfolio's overall exposure to volatility, there can be no guarantee that the Subadviser will be successful in managing the Portfolio's overall level of volatility. The Portfolio may not realize the anticipated benefits from its volatility management strategies or it may realize losses because of the investment techniques employed by the Subadviser to manage volatility, the implementation of those strategies by the Subadviser or the limitations of those strategies in times of extremely low volatility or extremely high volatility. Under certain market conditions, the use of volatility management strategies by the Subadviser may also result in less favorable performance than if such strategies had not been used. For

example, if the Portfolio has reduced its overall exposure to equities to avoid losses in certain market environments, the Portfolio may forego some of the returns that can be associated with periods of rising equity values.

**Model and Data Risk.** When the quantitative models ("Models") and information and data ("Data") used in managing the Portfolio contain an error, are input or designed incorrectly, or prove to be incorrect or incomplete, any investment decisions made in reliance on the Models and Data may not produce the desired results and the Portfolio may realize losses. Models may cause the Portfolio to underperform other investment strategies and may not perform as intended in volatile markets. In addition, any hedging based on faulty Models and Data may prove to be unsuccessful. Furthermore, the success of Models that are predictive in nature is dependent largely on the accuracy and reliability of the supplied historical data. All Models are susceptible to input errors which may cause the resulting information to be incorrect.

**Asset Allocation Risk.** The Portfolio's ability to achieve its investment objective depends upon the Subadviser's analysis of various factors and the mix of asset classes that results from such analysis, which may prove incorrect. The particular asset allocation selected for the Portfolio may not perform as well as other asset allocations that could have been selected for the Portfolio. The Portfolio may experience losses or poor relative performance if the Subadviser allocates a significant portion of the Portfolio's assets to an asset class that does not perform as the Subadviser anticipated, including relative to other asset classes or other subsets of asset classes. The Portfolio may underperform funds that allocate their assets differently than the Portfolio.

**Derivatives Risk.** The Portfolio will primarily invest in derivatives, such as futures and forward contracts, and swaps, to seek exposure to certain asset classes and enhance returns. To a lesser extent, the Portfolio may also invest in derivatives to "hedge" or protect its assets from an unfavorable shift in the value or rate of a reference instrument. Derivatives can be highly volatile and can significantly increase the Portfolio's exposure to market risk, credit and counterparty risk and other risks, as well as increase transaction costs. Derivatives may be illiquid and difficult to value and can involve risks in addition to, and potentially greater than, the risks of the underlying reference instrument. Because of their complex nature, some derivatives may not perform as intended. As a result, the Portfolio may not realize the anticipated benefits from a derivative it holds or it may realize losses. Certain derivatives have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. A risk of the Portfolio's use of derivatives is that the fluctuations in their values may not correlate perfectly with the overall securities markets. Government regulation of derivative instruments may limit or prevent the Portfolio from using such instruments as part of its investment strategies, which could adversely affect the Portfolio.

**PanAgora Global Diversified Risk Portfolio**

------

**Leveraging Risk.** Derivatives and other transactions that give rise to leverage may cause the Portfolio's performance to be more volatile than if the Portfolio had not been leveraged. Leveraging also may require that the Portfolio liquidate portfolio securities when it is not advantageous to do so to satisfy its obligations. Leveraging may expose the Portfolio to losses in excess of the amounts invested or borrowed. Leverage can create an interest expense that would lower the Portfolio's overall returns. There can be no guarantee that a leveraging strategy will be successful.

**Market Risk.** The Portfolio's share price can fall because of, among other things, a decline in the market as a whole, deterioration in the prospects for a particular industry or company, changes in general economic conditions, such as prevailing interest rates or investor sentiment, or other factors including terrorism, war, natural disasters and the spread of infectious illness including epidemics or pandemics. In addition, unexpected political, regulatory, trade and diplomatic events within the United States and abroad may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree. Significant disruptions to the financial markets could adversely affect the liquidity and volatility of securities held by the Portfolio.

**Interest Rate Risk.** The value of the Portfolio's investments in fixed income securities may decline when prevailing interest rates rise or increase when interest rates fall. The longer a security's maturity or duration, the greater its value will change in response to changes in interest rates. The interest earned on the Portfolio's investments in fixed income securities may decline when prevailing interest rates fall. During periods of very low or negative interest rates, the Portfolio may be unable to maintain positive returns or pay dividends to Portfolio shareholders. Additionally, under certain market conditions in which interest rates are low or negative, the Portfolio may have a very low, or even negative yield. A low or negative yield would cause the Portfolio to lose money and the net asset value of the Portfolio's shares to decline in certain conditions and over certain time periods. Changes in prevailing interest rates, particularly sudden changes, may also increase the level of volatility in fixed income and other markets, increase redemptions in the Portfolio's shares and reduce the liquidity of the Portfolio's debt securities and other income-producing holdings. Changes in interest rate levels are caused by a variety of factors, such as central bank monetary policies, inflation rates, and general economic and market conditions.

**Short Position Risk.** The Portfolio will incur a loss from a short position if the value of the reference instrument increases after the time the Portfolio entered into the short position. Engaging in a short position may cause the Portfolio to lose more money than the actual cost of the short position and the Portfolio's potential losses may be unlimited if the Portfolio does not own the reference instrument and it is unable to close out of the short position. Any gain from a short position will be offset in whole or in part by the transaction costs associated with the

short position. Short positions generally involve a form of leverage, which can exaggerate the Portfolio's losses.

**TIPS and Inflation-Linked Bonds Risk.** The value of inflation-protected securities generally fluctuates in response to changes in real interest rates, which are in turn tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if inflation were to rise at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates would decline, leading to an increase in the value of inflation-protected securities. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increased at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates would rise, leading to a decrease in the value of inflation-protected securities. When real interest rates are rising faster than nominal interest rates, inflation-indexed bonds, including Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, may experience greater losses than other fixed income securities with similar durations. The inflation-protected securities markets are generally much smaller and less liquid than the markets for nominal bonds from the same issuers and as such can suffer losses during times of economic stress or illiquidity.

**Commodities Risk.** Exposure to the commodities markets may subject the Portfolio to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodities and commodity-linked derivative instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity. The Portfolio's ability to invest in commodity-linked derivative instruments may be limited by the Portfolio's intention to qualify as a regulated investment company, and could adversely affect the Portfolio's ability to so qualify.

**Credit and Counterparty Risk.** The value of the Portfolio's investments may be adversely affected if a security's credit rating is downgraded or an issuer of an investment held by the Portfolio fails to pay an obligation on a timely basis, otherwise defaults or is perceived by other investors to be less creditworthy. If a counterparty to a derivatives or other transaction with the Portfolio files for bankruptcy, becomes insolvent, or otherwise becomes unable or unwilling to honor its obligation to the Portfolio, the Portfolio may experience significant losses or delays in realizing income on or recovering collateral and may lose all or a part of the income from the transaction.

**Forward and Futures Contract Risk.** The successful use of forward and futures contracts will depend upon the Subadviser's skill and experience with respect to such instruments and are subject to special risk considerations. The primary risks associated with the use of forward and futures contracts include (i) the imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the instruments held by the Portfolio and the price of the forward or futures contract; (ii) possible lack of a liquid market for a forward or futures contract and the resulting inability to close a forward or futures contract when desired; (iii) losses caused by unanticipated market movements, which are potentially unlimited; (iv) the Subadviser's inability to predict

**PanAgora Global Diversified Risk Portfolio**

**4**

------

correctly the direction of securities prices, interest rates, currency exchange rates and other economic factors; (v) the possibility that the counterparty will default in the performance of its obligations; (vi) if the Portfolio has insufficient cash, it may have to sell securities to meet daily variation margin requirements, and the Portfolio may have to sell securities at a time when it is disadvantageous to do so; (vii) the possibility that the Portfolio may be delayed or prevented from recovering margin or other amounts deposited with a futures commission merchant or clearinghouse; (viii) the possibility that position or trading limits will preclude the Subadviser from taking positions in certain futures contracts on behalf of the Portfolio; and (ix) the risks typically associated with foreign investments to the extent the Portfolio invests in derivatives traded on markets outside the United States.

**Investment Company and Exchange-Traded Fund Risk.** An investment in an investment company or ETF involves substantially the same risks as investing directly in the underlying securities. An investment company or ETF may not achieve its investment objective or execute its investment strategy effectively, which may adversely affect the Portfolio's performance. The Portfolio must pay its pro rata portion of an investment company's or ETF's fees and expenses. Shares of a closed-end investment company or ETF may trade at a premium or discount to the net asset value of its portfolio securities.

**Foreign Investment Risk.** Investments in foreign securities, whether direct or indirect, tend to be more volatile and less liquid than investments in U.S. securities because, among other things, they involve risks relating to political, social, economic and other developments abroad, as well as risks resulting from differences between the regulations and reporting standards and practices to which U.S. and foreign issuers are subject. To the extent foreign securities are denominated in foreign currencies, their values may be adversely affected by changes in currency exchange rates. All of the risks of investing in foreign securities are typically increased by investing in emerging market countries. To the extent the Portfolio invests in foreign sovereign debt securities, it is subject to additional risks.

**Market Capitalization Risk.** Investing primarily in issuers in one market capitalization category (large, medium or small) carries the risk that due to current market conditions that category will be out of favor with investors. Larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges or attain the high growth rate of successful smaller companies. Stocks of medium and small capitalization companies may be more volatile than those of larger companies due to, among other things, narrower product lines, more limited financial resources and fewer experienced managers. In addition, there is typically less publicly available information about small capitalization companies, and their stocks may have a more limited trading market than stocks of larger companies.

**Non-Diversification Risk.** Because the Portfolio invests in a small number of issuers, its value will be affected to a greater extent by the performance of any one of those issuers or by any single economic, political, market or regulatory event affecting any one of those issuers than would be the value of a portfolio that invests in a larger number of issuers.

**Subsidiary Risk.** By investing in the Subsidiary, the Portfolio is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the Subsidiary's investments. The Subsidiary is not registered under the 1940 Act and is not subject to all the investor protections of the 1940 Act. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the Portfolio and/or the Subsidiary to operate as described in this Prospectus and could adversely affect the Portfolio. The Portfolio's ability to invest in the Subsidiary will potentially be limited by the Portfolio's intention to qualify as a regulated investment company, and might adversely affect the Portfolio's ability to so qualify.

**Tax Risk.** In order to qualify for the special tax treatment accorded to a regulated investment company ("RIC") and its shareholders under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Portfolio must derive at least 90% of its gross income for each taxable year from "qualifying income," meet certain asset diversification tests at the end of each taxable quarter, and meet annual distribution requirements. The Portfolio's pursuit of its investment strategies will potentially be limited by the Portfolio's intention to qualify for such treatment and could adversely affect the Portfolio's ability to so qualify. The Portfolio can make certain investments, the treatment of which for these purposes is unclear. If, in any year, the Portfolio were to fail to qualify for the special tax treatment accorded to a RIC and its shareholders, and were ineligible to or were not to cure such failure within the required timeframe, the Portfolio would be taxed in the same manner as an ordinary corporation subject to U.S. federal income tax on all its income at the fund level. The resulting taxes could substantially reduce the Portfolio's net assets and the amount of income available for distribution. In addition, in order to requalify for taxation as a RIC, the Portfolio could be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay substantial taxes and interest, and make certain distributions. Please see the Statement of Additional Information for more information.

**Portfolio Turnover Risk.** The investment techniques and strategies utilized by the Portfolio might result in a high degree of portfolio turnover. High portfolio turnover rates will increase the Portfolio's transaction costs, which can adversely affect the Portfolio's performance.

**Past Performance**

The Portfolio is the successor to the portfolio formerly known as PanAgora Global Diversified Risk Portfolio (the "Predecessor Portfolio") pursuant to a reorganization of the Predecessor Portfolio with and into the Portfolio effective as of the close of business on April 29, 2022. The Predecessor Portfolio is the accounting survivor of the reorganization. Performance information, including the share class inception date, shown for

the Portfolio's Class B shares for periods prior to the close of business on April 29, 2022 is historical information for the Predecessor Portfolio's Class B shares. The Predecessor Portfolio was managed by PanAgora and had the same investment objective and a substantially identical investment strategy to the Portfolio.

The information below provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio by showing changes in the Portfolio's performance from year to year and how the Portfolio's average annual returns over time compare with those of broad-based securities market indexes and an additional index reflecting the market segment(s) in which the Portfolio invests. Note that the results in the bar chart and table do not include the effect of Contract charges. If these Contract charges had been included, performance would have been lower. As with all mutual funds, past returns are not a prediction of future returns.

The Portfolio is not sold directly to the general public but instead is offered as an underlying investment option for Contracts issued by insurance companies, including insurance companies that are affiliated with the Portfolio and BIA. The Portfolio and its related companies, including BIA, may make payments to the sponsoring insurance companies (or their affiliates) for distribution and/or other services, and the insurance companies may benefit more from offering the Portfolio as an investment option in the Contracts than offering other portfolios. The benefits to the insurance companies of offering the Portfolio over other portfolios and these payments may be factors that the insurance companies consider in including the Portfolio as an underlying investment option in the Contracts and may create a conflict of interest. The prospectus for your Contract contains additional information about these payments.
