**VMALX**<br>

You can find the fund's prospectus, shareholder reports, statement of additional information ("SAI"), and other information about the fund online at https://www.virtus.com/investor-resources/completion-fund-documents.<br>You can also get this information at no cost by calling 800-243-1574 or by sending an e-mail to: virtus.investment.partners@virtus.com. If you purchase shares of the fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary such as a bank, the prospectus and other information will also be available from your financial intermediary.<br>The fund's prospectus and SAI both dated October 28, 2025, are incorporated by reference into this Summary Prospectus.<br>

#### Investment Objective
The fund has an investment objective of seeking to maximize total return, which consists of income on its investments and capital appreciation.

#### Fees and Expenses
The tables below illustrate the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell shares of the fund. **You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below.** 

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Shareholder Fees *(fees paid directly from your investment)*** | **All Shares** |
| Maximum Sales Charge (load) Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of offering price) |  |
| Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (load) (as a percentage of the lesser of purchase price or redemption proceeds)  |  |
| **Annual Fund Operating Expenses *(expenses that you pay each year as* <br>*a percentage of the value of your investment)*** | **All Shares** |
| Management Fees<sup>(a)</sup> | 0.00% |
| Other Expenses<sup>(b)</sup> | 2.28% |
| Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses | 2.28% |
| Less: Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement<sup>(c)</sup> | (2.28)% |
| Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement<sup>(c)</sup> | 0.00% |

---

(a) Neither the fund's investment adviser nor
the fund's subadviser charges a management fee to the fund. Shareholders should be aware, however,
that the fund is an integral part of separately managed account programs, and the fund's investment
adviser, the fund's subadviser or their affiliates will be compensated directly or indirectly by separately
managed account program sponsors or program participants for managed account advisory services.

(b) Estimated for current fiscal year, as annualized.

(c) The fund's subadviser has contractually
agreed to limit the fund's total operating expenses (excluding certain expenses, such as front-end
or contingent deferred sales charges, taxes, leverage and borrowing expenses (such as commitment, amendment
and renewal expenses on credit or redemption facilities), interest, brokerage commissions, expenses incurred
in connection with any merger or reorganization, unusual or infrequently occurring expenses (such as
litigation), acquired fund fees and expenses, and dividend expenses, if any) so that such expenses do
not exceed 0.00% indefinitely. Only the fund's Board may modify or terminate the expense limitation
agreement.

#### Example
This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods or continued to hold them. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year, that the fund's operating expenses remain the same and that the expense reimbursement agreement remains in place for the contractual period. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Share Status** | **1 Year** | **3 Years** |
| Sold or Held | $0 | $0 |

---

#### Portfolio Turnover
The fund 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 and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the fund's portfolio turnover rate was 12% of the average value of its portfolio.

#### Investments, Risks and Performance

#### Principal Investment Strategies
Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings made for investment purposes) in emerging markets debt investments and derivatives that have economic characteristics of emerging markets debt investments (collectively, "EMD Investments"). EMD Investments are debt instruments, including loans, issued by corporations or other business organizations that are economically tied to an emerging market country, and sovereign or quasi-sovereign debt instruments economically tied to an emerging market country. A corporation or other business organization is economically tied to an emerging market country if it issues securities that are principally traded on the country's securities markets or if it is organized or principally operates in the country, derives a majority of its income from its operations within the country or has a majority of its assets within the country. "Sovereign" refers to a government and "quasi-sovereign" refers to a governmental agency, political subdivision or other instrumentality or issuer that is majority owned, directly or indirectly, or whose obligations are guaranteed, by a government. A sovereign or quasi-sovereign debt instrument is economically tied to an emerging market country if it is principally traded on the country's securities markets or the issuer is organized or principally operates in the country, derives a majority of its income from its operations within the country or has a majority of its assets within the country. EMD Investments also include derivative instruments used for hedging purposes or to otherwise gain or reduce long or short exposure to EMD Investments. For example, the fund may utilize futures or other derivatives whose return is based on specific EMD Investments or indices of such investments. Although the fund is not limited in the types of derivatives it can use, the fund currently expects that its derivatives investments will consist primarily of the following instruments and transactions: futures, options, swaps, credit linked notes and credit default swaps. The fund may use derivatives to a significant extent. The fund's investments may be denominated in non-U.S. currencies or in the U.S. dollar.

The fund considers "emerging market countries" to include countries identified by the World Bank Group as not being "high income economies" or which are included in a JPMorgan emerging market bond index. It is anticipated that the fund will focus most of its investments in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, Latin America and/or the developing countries of Europe. The fund's investments may include, among other things, corporate debt securities, sovereign debt securities, structured notes, convertible securities, securities issued by supranational organizations, fixed and floating rate commercial loans, loan participations and assignments, private placements, Rule 144A securities, non-U.S. currencies, forward currency contracts and other foreign currency transactions and derivatives related to the types of investments listed herein. The fund seeks capital appreciation through country selection, issuer selection, industry selection, security selection and currency selection.

The fund may invest in securities of any credit rating (including unrated securities) and may invest without limit in higher risk, below-investment grade debt securities, commonly referred to as "high yield" securities or "junk bonds." Such securities may include those that are in default with respect to the payment of principal or interest.

The subadviser normally maintains an average portfolio duration of between 2 and 7 years. However, the fund's average duration may be outside this range, and the fund may invest in securities of any duration and maturity. Duration measures the interest rate sensitivity of a fixed income security. Generally, the longer the maturity the greater the duration and, therefore, the greater effect interest rate changes have on the price of the security. Typically, for a fund maintaining a modified adjusted duration of 3.5 years, for example, a one percent increase in interest rates would cause a 3.5% decrease in the value of the fund's fixed income assets. Similarly, a one percent decrease in interest rates typically would cause the value of the fund's fixed income assets to increase by 3.5%.

#### Principal Risks
The fund may not achieve its objective(s), and it is not intended to be a complete investment program. The value of the fund's investments that supports your share value may decrease. If between the time you purchase shares and the time you sell shares the value of the fund's investments decreases, you will lose money. Investment values can decrease for a number of reasons. Conditions affecting the overall economy, specific industries or companies in which the fund invests can be worse than expected, and investments may fail to perform as the subadviser expects. As a result, the value of your shares may decrease. Purchase and redemption activities by fund shareholders may impact the management of the fund and its ability to achieve its investment objective(s). The principal risks of investing in the fund are identified below.

> ***Emerging Market Risk:*** Emerging markets securities may be more volatile, or more greatly affected by negative conditions, than those of their counterparts in more established foreign markets. Such securities may also be subject to Sanctions Risk.

> ***Sanctions Risk:*** The imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities issued by or tied to the sanctioned country and increase market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent the fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of transactions, and negatively impact the fund's liquidity and performance.

> ***Foreign Investing Risk:*** Investing in foreign securities subjects the fund to additional risks such as increased volatility; currency fluctuations; less liquidity; less publicly available information about the foreign investment; and political, regulatory, economic, and market risk.

> ***Credit Risk:*** If the issuer of a debt instrument fails to pay interest or principal in a timely manner, or negative perceptions exist in the market of the issuer's ability to make such payments, the price of the security may decline.

> ***Interest Rate Risk:*** The values of debt instruments may rise or fall in response to changes in interest rates, and this risk may be enhanced for securities with longer maturities.

> ***Counterparty Risk:*** There is risk that a party upon whom the fund relies to complete a transaction will default.

> ***Currency Rate Risk:*** Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect the value of the fund's shares.

------

> ***Derivatives Risk:*** Derivatives and other similar instruments (collectively referred to in this section as "derivatives") may include, among other things, futures, options, forwards and swap agreements and may be used in order to hedge portfolio risks, create leverage or attempt to increase returns. Investments in derivatives may result in increased volatility and the fund may incur a loss greater than its principal investment.

> ***Bank Loan Risk:*** In addition to the risks typically associated with high-yield/high-risk fixed income securities, bank loans may be unsecured or not fully collateralized, may be subject to restrictions on resale, may be less liquid and may trade infrequently on the secondary market. Bank loans settle on a delayed basis; thus, sale proceeds may not be available to meet redemptions for a substantial period of time after the sale of the loan.

> ***Credit Default Swaps Risk:*** Credit default swaps are subject to the credit risk of the underlying reference obligation and to counterparty credit risk. If the counterparty fails to meet its obligations, the fund may lose money. Credit default swaps are also subject to the risk that the fund's subadviser will not properly assess the risk of the underlying reference obligation. If the fund is selling credit protection, there is a risk that a credit event will occur and the fund will have to pay the counterparty. If the fund is buying credit protection, there is a risk that no credit event will occur and the fund will receive no benefit for the premium paid. Credit default swaps may be difficult to value and may result in increased volatility, and the fund may incur a loss greater than its principal investment.

> ***High-Yield/High-Risk Fixed Income Securities (Junk Bonds) Risk:*** There is a greater risk of issuer default, less liquidity, and increased price volatility related to high-yield/high-risk securities than investment grade securities, and high-yield/high-risk securities are generally considered to be speculative.

> ***Illiquid and Restricted Securities Risk:*** Certain securities in which the fund invests may be difficult to sell at the time and price beneficial to the fund, for example due to low trading volumes or legal restrictions.

> ***Income Risk:*** Income received from the fund may vary widely over the short- and long-term and/or be less than anticipated if the proceeds from maturing securities in the fund are reinvested in lower-yielding securities.

> ***Large Shareholder Risk:*** Certain account holders, including the subadviser or funds or accounts over which the subadviser has investment discretion, may from time to time own or control a significant percentage of the fund's shares. The fund is subject to the risk that a redemption by large shareholders of all or a portion of their fund shares or a purchase of fund shares in large amounts and/or on a frequent basis, including as a result of asset allocation decisions made by the subadviser, will adversely affect the fund's performance if it is forced to sell portfolio securities or invest cash when the subadviser would not otherwise choose to do so. This risk will be particularly pronounced if one shareholder owns a substantial portion of the fund. Redemptions of a large number of shares may affect the liquidity of the fund's portfolio, increase the fund's transaction costs and/or lead to the liquidation of the fund. Such transactions also potentially limit the use of any capital loss carryforwards and certain other losses to offset future realized capital gains (if any). The effects of taxable gains resulting from large redemptions of fund shares would particularly impact non-redeeming shareholders who do not hold their fund shares in a tax-advantaged or tax-exempt vehicle.

> ***Market Volatility Risk:*** The value of the securities in the fund may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies and/or general economic conditions. Price changes may be short- or long-term. Local, regional or global events such as war or military conflict (e.g., Russia's invasion of Ukraine), geopolitical risk, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issue, recessions, tariffs and other restrictions on trade, or the threat or potential of one or more such events and developments, could have a significant impact on the fund and its investments, including hampering the ability of the fund's portfolio manager(s) to invest the fund's assets as intended.

> ***Prepayment/Call Risk:*** Issuers may prepay or call their fixed rate obligations when interest rates fall, forcing the fund to reinvest in obligations with lower interest rates and the fund may not benefit fully from the increase in value that other fixed income investments experience when interest rates decline.

> ***Private Placement Risk:*** Private placements may have limited liquidity and/or be difficult to value. As a result, the fund may have difficulty selling these securities and may incur losses to the fund.

> ***Short-Term Investments Risk:*** The fund's short-term investments may not provide the liquidity or protection intended or may prevent the fund from experiencing positive movements in the fund's principal investment strategies.

> ***Sovereign, Quasi-sovereign and Supranational Debt Risk:*** Investing in foreign government obligations, debt obligations of supranational entities and the sovereign debt of foreign countries creates exposure to the direct or indirect consequences of political, social or economic changes in the countries that issue the securities or in which the issuers are located. A governmental entity may delay, refuse or be unable to pay interest or principal on its debt due to cash flow problems, insufficient foreign currency reserves, political considerations, the relative size of the governmental entity's debt position in relation to the economy or the failure to put in place economic reforms. There may be no legal or bankruptcy process for collecting sovereign debt. Emerging markets countries tend to have economic, political and legal systems that are less fully developed and are less stable than those of more advanced countries.

> ***Structured Products Risk:*** The risk that, in addition to the general risks associated with investing in debt instruments, the fund's exposure to certain risks -- such as counterparty risk, liquidity risk and market volatility risk -- will be different or greater as a result of investing through structured products.
