**President's Letter**<br>Dear Shareholders,

The last few years have seen investors face some unprecedented challenges, from a global pandemic that shuttered much of the world's economy for months, to geopolitical strife, to rising inflation that has reached levels not seen in decades.

While economies in most of the world have reopened as COVID-19 has begun slowly transitioning to an "endemic" disease, the pandemic's effects are still with us. The easier monetary and fiscal policies enacted to provide stimulus as economies struggled through COVID-19-related restrictions and lockdowns, and ongoing supply chain issues, which were, at least in part, an outgrowth of the same virus-containment measures, were among the numerous factors that combined to begin driving inflation levels higher as the 2022 calendar year got underway.

With rising inflation already a concern, investor sentiment sharply deteriorated in the first quarter of this year, with the negativity driven largely by Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February as well as signs that inflation was more entrenched than transitory in many regions of the world. The war and the resulting economic sanctions placed on Russia by the US and European governments also contributed to a spike in energy prices, given that Russia is a major exporter of natural gas as well as other resources, particularly to Europe.

The persistently high inflation readouts led key central banks, including the US Federal Reserve (Fed), to signal a tightening of monetary policy. The Fed had already announced that it would taper its bond purchases and eventually end its pandemic-era quantitative easing program by the spring of 2022; and, with US inflation hitting 40-year highs, the Fed began aggressively raising its benchmark federal funds rate target range, while indicating that more rate hikes were likely. The magnitude of the rate increases heightened investors' concerns about the ability of the Fed and other central banks to cool inflation without triggering a recession.

Due to what has been, so far, a tumultuous 2022 calendar year for investors, the performance of most asset classes, especially riskier assets such as equities and corporate bonds, has turned negative, as market participants have tried to ascertain the direction and progression of Fed policy, economic growth, the war in Ukraine, and other factors. In fact, the third quarter of 2022 marked the first time since 1976 that both equities and bonds had posted three consecutive quarters of negative returns. The 2022 US mid-term election results, which created a power shift in the US House of Representatives, are another development that will garner investors' attention as we move into 2023, as changing political conditions have often contributed to increased market volatility.

| **Q** | **How did the Fund perform during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022?** |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **A** | Pioneer Global High Yield Fund's Class A shares returned -16.50% at net asset value during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022, while the Fund's benchmarks, the Bloomberg Global High Yield Index (the Bloomberg Index) and the ICE Bank of America (ICE BofA) US High Yield Index, returned -17.55% and -11.45%, respectively. During the same period, the average return of the 681 mutual funds in Morningstar's High Yield Bond Funds category was -10.98%. |

|:---|:---|
| **Q** | **Could you describe the market environment for global high-yield investors during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022?** |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **A** | As the period opened in November 2021, the market appeared to shrug off concerns over the prospect of tighter Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy and the rapidly spreading Omicron variant of COVID-19, leading to solid performance for credit-sensitive assets within the fixed-income market. However, the first quarter of 2022 saw a trifecta of increased geopolitical tensions, a worsening growth/inflation mix arising from a spike in commodity prices, and the prospect of rising interest rates due to changing monetary policies of many central banks dominate market sentiment, driving losses across most asset classes. Russia's invasion of Ukraine in late February, together with subsequent US and European sanctions on Russia, led to a spike in energy, metals, and food prices, adding downside risk to real economic growth and upside risk to inflation. In addition, another round of lockdowns in China in the wake of increasing COVID-19 infection rates exacerbated supply-chain disruptions and raised concerns about further risks to the global economic growth landscape. |

---

As inflation reached levels not seen in many years, the Fed began to move away from its highly accommodative monetary policy stance. At its mid-March 2022 meeting, the Fed's Open Market Committee (FOMC)

**4 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

raised the federal funds rate target range by a quarter-point, moving the range to 0.25% - 0.50%, and indicated that further increases would follow rapidly. The Fed also formally ended its pandemic-era quantitative easing program in March, and signaled it would soon begin reducing its holdings of Treasury securities and agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) by reinvesting only part of the proceeds from maturing securities.

The US consumer price index began to post year-over-year increases in excess of 8% beginning with the March 2022 readout, peaking at 9.1% in June. By late spring, the market began speculating as to whether the Fed would be able to achieve a "soft landing," in which economic growth slowed yet remained positive as inflation was brought under control. With investors now concerned about inflation, the Fed's response, and economic growth prospects, returns for riskier assets (such as corporate bonds) turned deeply negative. The Fed continued to raise the federal funds rate target range aggressively between May and September, bringing the range to 3.00% - 3.25%. For its part, the European Central Bank (ECB) caught markets somewhat off-guard in July by raising its reference rate by 50 basis points (bps), and followed up in September with an increase of 75 bps (a basis point is equal to 1/100th of a percentage point). US Treasury yields moved sharply higher in response to the Fed's determined stance, and the yield curve became inverted –with shorter-term yields moving above longer-term yields – as the market anticipated a recession. Recession concerns were highest in Europe, where the embargoes resulting from the Russia-Ukraine conflict led to dramatic increases in energy prices.

| **Q** | **What were the principal factors that influenced the Fund's benchmark-relative performance during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022?** |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **A** | While the Fund generated a negative return during the 12-month period, it did slightly outperform the Bloomberg Index. |

---

At the sector level, the Fund's relative returns benefited from an overweight to as well as strong security selection results within the energy sector; an underweight to as well as positive selection results within the real estate sector; and from the portfolio's exposure to floating-rate bank loans. The Fund's cash holdings also proved additive for relative results during a period that featured a sharply negative market environment.

On the downside, the Fund's overweight to the financial services sector detracted from benchmark-relative performance during the period, as did a portfolio underweight to the banking sector. An underweight to

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **5**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

foreign sovereign bonds as well as weak security selection results within that particular allocation also detracted from the Fund's relative returns.

Regionally, an overweight to US issuers aided the Fund's relative returns for the period, while the benefit from a portfolio overweight to emerging markets issuers was more than offset by weak security selection results within the region (particularly the portfolio's Russian investments). The Fund's positioning with respect to Europe contributed positively to relative performance for the period, both through the portfolio's underweight allocation to the region and good security selection results.

On a ratings basis, the Fund's cash holdings (noted earlier) were the leading positive contributors to relative returns for the period. Meanwhile, our preference for holding securities rated "B" and "CCC" in the portfolio detracted from relative performance, although security selection results within those ratings buckets were positive overall.

With regard to individual securities, the leading positive contributors to the Fund's relative performance for the period included a portfolio position in Transportes Aeros Portugueses, a Portuguese airline that benefited from rebounding passenger traffic. In addition, a position in Baytex, the Canadian energy producer, contributed positively to the Fund's relative returns as surging oil prices reduced the negative effects of higher interest rates. Avia Solutions, an aircraft lessor and provider of aviation services, also outperformed as air traffic rebounded, and aided the Fund's relative returns for the period.

On the negative side, the leading individual detractors from the Fund's relative performance for the period were positions in Metinvest, a Ukrainian steel company that struggled due to the Ukraine-Russia conflict, and Unifin Financiera, a Mexican consumer finance company that filed for bankruptcy after failing to extend its debt. A position in Sovcombank was another notable detractor from the Fund's relative performance, as the Russian bank defaulted on its debt due to the economic sanctions placed on that country in the wake of its invasion of Ukraine. It should be noted that the Fund's ability to invest in securities of Russian companies could be further affected by current and possible future sanctions against Russia.

We also utilized index-based credit-default-swap contracts (CDS contracts), a form of derivative, during the period, in an effort to help reduce the Fund's overall market risk. Those positions weighed moderately on relative performance.

**6 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

Finally, the Fund held underweight positions versus the benchmark in both the euro and British pound currencies, which had a positive effect on relative performance.

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Q** | **Did the Fund have any exposure to derivative securities during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022?** |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **A** | Yes, as noted earlier, the Fund's exposure to CDS contracts detracted modestly from benchmark-relative performance over the 12-month period. The Fund also had an allocation to forward foreign currency exchange contracts (currency forwards) during the period, which had a negligible effect on relative returns. |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Q** | **Did the Fund's distributions\* to shareholders change during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022?** |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **A** | The Fund's monthly distribution rate increased over the period as Treasury yields rose and high-yield credit spreads widened. (Credit spreads are commonly defined as the differences in yield between Treasuries and other types of fixed-income securities with similar maturities.) |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Q** | **What is your investment outlook?** |

---

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **A** | At the end of October 2022, the market was projecting the federal funds rate target range to increase to at least 5% in 2023, with short-term euro rates projected at over 2.75%. We believe US inflation will prove to be persistent, leading the Fed to keep interest rates higher for a longer period of time. In addition, we think interest-rate-sensitive sectors such as housing will experience further slowdowns and shed jobs, leading to increased unemployment and reduced economic activity. We expect economic duress to spread and for the economy to enter a recession, probably toward the middle of 2023. As has typically been the case during past recessions, we believe some high-yield bond issuers will end up in trouble, thus leading to increased defaults. |

---

However, we do not expect a deep recession, which was the scenario that played out during the global financial crisis of more than a decade ago. In our view, the economy will likely be on the upswing and the high-yield default rate headed lower at some point in 2024. We are hopeful that by 2024 inflation will have fallen closer to the Fed's targeted 2% area, and that Treasury yields will be lower than today's levels.

\* Distributions are not guaranteed.

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **7**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

In that scenario, we expect the high-yield default rate to remain significantly lower than it was after the global financial crisis. We base our view on the fact that "BB" rated issuers represent a significant weighting within the high-yield universe versus "B" and "CCC" bonds, which are riskier. In addition, we have observed still-strong fundamentals in sectors such as autos and energy, and the US consumer has remained on relatively solid footing. Also, within the below-investment-grade universe, we expect the default rate for high-yield bonds to be substantially lower than the default rate for their floating-rate, leveraged-loan counterparts.

In Europe, the Russia-Ukraine conflict has complicated the economic challenges, particularly through dramatic increases in energy costs. Although some emerging markets countries could benefit from higher commodity prices, we are concerned about further supply-chain disruptions and the spillover effects from China's attempts to contain the spread of COVID-19 infections through its "Zero-COVID" lockdown policy, and from the Chinese government's recent decision to favor state-owned companies.

We believe it is likely that markets will remain volatile until there is greater clarity with regard to the paths of both inflation and short-term interest rates. We expect security selection to be a larger contributor to returns going forward, as opposed to pure "beta" exposures in the portfolio. (Beta measures an investment's sensitivity to market movements in relation to an index. A beta of 1 indicates that the security's price has moved with the market. A beta of less than 1 means that the security has been less volatile than the market. A beta of greater than 1 indicates that the security's price has been more volatile than the market.)

**Please refer to the Schedule of Investments on pages 18–37 for a full listing of Fund securities.**

**All investments are subject to risk, including the possible loss of principal. In the past several years, financial markets have experienced increased volatility and heightened uncertainty. The market prices of securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political, or regulatory conditions, recessions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates, lack of liquidity in the bond markets, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, armed conflict including Russia's military invasion of Ukraine, sanctions against Russia, other nations or individuals or companies and possible countermeasures, or adverse investor sentiment. These conditions may continue, recur, worsen or spread.**

**Investments in high-yield or lower rated securities are subject to greater-than-average price volatility, illiquidity and possibility of default.**

**The market price of securities may fluctuate when interest rates change. When interest rates rise, the prices of fixed income securities in the Fund will generally fall. Conversely, when interest rates fall, the prices of fixed income securities in the Fund will generally rise.**

**The Fund's investments, payment obligations and financing terms may be based on floating rates, such as LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), or SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate). Plans are underway to phase out the use of LIBOR. There remains uncertainty regarding the nature of any replacement rate and the impact of the transition from LIBOR on the Fund, issuers of instruments in which the Fund invests, and financial markets generally.**

**Investments in the Fund are subject to possible loss due to the financial failure of issuers of underlying securities and their inability to meet their debt obligations.**

**Investing in foreign and/or emerging markets securities involves risks relating to interest rates, currency exchange rates, economic, and political conditions.**

**Prepayment risk is the chance that an issuer may exercise its right to prepay its security, if falling interest rates prompt the issuer to do so. Forced to reinvest the unanticipated proceeds at lower interest rates, the Fund would experience a decline in income and lose the opportunity for additional price appreciation.**

**The portfolio may invest in mortgage-backed securities, which during times of fluctuating interest rates may increase or decrease more than other fixed-income securities. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to pre-payments.**

**The Fund may use derivatives, such as options, futures, inverse floating rate obligations, swaps, and others, which can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on Fund performance. Derivatives may have a leveraging effect on the Fund.**

**The performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.**

NAV results represent the percent change in net asset value per share. POP returns reflect deduction of maximum 4.50% sales charge. NAV returns would have been lower had sales charge been reflected. All results are historical and assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Other share classes are available for which performance and expenses will differ.

Performance results reflect any applicable expense waivers in effect during the periods shown. Without such waivers Fund performance would be lower. Waivers may not be in effect for all funds. Certain fee waivers are contractual through a specified period. Otherwise, fee waivers can be rescinded at any time. See the prospectus and financial statements for more information.

The net expense ratio reflects the contractual expense limitation currently in effect through March 1, 2023 for Class A shares. There can be no assurance that Amundi US will extend the expense limitation beyond such time. Please see the prospectus and financial statements for more information.

The performance table and graph do not reflect the deduction of fees and taxes that a shareowner would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

**Comparing Ongoing Fund Expenses**

As a shareowner in the Fund, you incur two types of costs:

(1) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses; and

(2) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments.

This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing expenses (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 at the beginning of the Fund's latest six-month period and held throughout the six months.

**Using the Tables**

**Actual Expenses**

The first table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Divide your account value by $1,000

Example: an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Multiply the result in (1) above by the corresponding share class's number in the third
row under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this
period.

**Expenses Paid on a $1,000 Investment in Pioneer Global High Yield Fund**

Based on actual returns from May 1, 2022 through October 31, 2022.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Share Class** | **A** | **C** | **Y** |
| Beginning Account | $1000.00 | $1000.00 | $1000.00 |
| Value on 5/1/22 |  |  |  |
| Ending Account Value (after expenses) | $912.40 | $909.80 | $913.90 |
| on 10/31/22 |  |  |  |
| Expenses Paid | $5.50 | $9.34 | $4.34 |
| During Period\* |  |  |  |

---

\* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio of 1.14%, 1.94%, and 0.90% for Class A, Class C, and Class Y shares, respectively, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the partial year period).

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

**Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes**

The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period.

You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) that are charged at the time of the transaction. Therefore, the table below is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

**Expenses Paid on a $1,000 Investment in Pioneer Global High Yield Fund**

Based on a hypothetical 5% return per year before expenses, reflecting the period from May 1, 2022 through October 31, 2022.

**Notes to Financial Statements \| 10/31/22**

**1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies**

Pioneer Global High Yield Fund (the "Fund") is one of two portfolio comprising Pioneer Series Trust VII (the "Trust"), a Delaware statutory trust. The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The investment objective of the Fund is to maximize total return through a combination of income and capital appreciation.

The Fund offers four classes of shares designated as Class A, Class C, Class K and Class Y shares. Class K shares had not commenced operations as of October 31, 2021. Each class of shares represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund and has identical rights (based on relative net asset values) to assets and liquidation proceeds. Share classes can bear different rates of class-specific fees and expenses, such as transfer agent and distribution fees. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different dividends from net investment income earned by each class. The Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust of the Trust gives the Board of Trustees the flexibility to specify either per-share voting or dollar-weighted voting when submitting matters for shareowner approval. Under per-share voting, each share of a class of the Fund is entitled to one vote. Under dollar-weighted voting, a shareowner's voting power is determined not by the number of shares owned, but by the dollar value of the shares on the record date. Each share class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting only that class, including with respect to the distribution plan for that class. There is no distribution plan for Class Y shares.

Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Amundi and Amundi's wholly owned subsidiary, Amundi USA, Inc., serves as the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser"). Amundi Distributor US, Inc., an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as the Fund's distributor (the "Distributor").

In March 2020, FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update, ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) — Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"), which provides optional, temporary relief with respect to the financial reporting of contracts subject to certain types of modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and other LIBOR-based reference rates at the end of 2021. The temporary relief provided by ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period from March 12, 2020

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **45**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

through December 31, 2023. Management is evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on the Fund's investments, derivatives, debt and other contracts, if applicable, that will undergo reference rate-related modifications as a result of the reference rate reform.

Effective August 19, 2022, the Fund is required to comply with Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act, which governs the use of derivatives by registered investment companies. Rule 18f-4 permits funds to enter into derivatives transactions (as defined in Rule 18f-4) and certain other transactions notwithstanding the restrictions on the issuance of "senior securities" under Section 18 of the 1940 Act. Rule 18f-4 requires a fund to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program, appoint a derivatives risk manager and comply with a relative or absolute limit on fund leverage risk calculated based on value-at-risk ("VaR"), unless the fund uses derivatives in only a limited manner.

The Fund is an investment company and follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"). U.S. GAAP requires the management of the Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income, expenses and gain or loss on investments during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:

**A. Security Valuation**

The net asset value of the Fund is computed once daily, on each day the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE.

Fixed-income securities are valued by using prices supplied by independent pricing services, which consider such factors as market prices, market events, quotations from one or more brokers, Treasury spreads, yields, maturities and ratings, or may use a pricing matrix or other fair value methods or techniques to provide an estimated value of the security or instrument. A pricing matrix is a means of valuing a debt security on the basis of current market prices for other debt securities, historical trading patterns in the market for fixed-income securities and/or other factors. Non-U.S. debt securities that are listed on an exchange will be valued at the bid price obtained from an independent third party pricing service. When independent third party pricing services are unable to supply prices,

**46 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

or when prices or market quotations are considered to be unreliable, the value of that security may be determined using quotations from one or more broker-dealers.

Loan interests are valued at the mean between the last available bid and asked prices from one or more brokers or dealers as obtained from Loan Pricing Corporation, an independent third party pricing service. If price information is not available from Loan Pricing Corporation, or if the price information is deemed to be unreliable, price information will be obtained from an alternative loan interest pricing service. If no reliable price quotes are available from either the primary or alternative pricing service, broker quotes will be solicited.

Event-linked bonds are valued at the bid price obtained from an independent third party pricing service. Other insurance-linked securities (including reinsurance sidecars, collateralized reinsurance and industry loss warranties) may be valued at the bid price obtained from an independent pricing service, or through a third party using a pricing matrix, insurance valuation models, or other fair value methods or techniques to provide an estimated value of the instrument.

Equity securities that have traded on an exchange are valued by using the last sale price on the principal exchange where they are traded. Equity securities that have not traded on the date of valuation, or securities for which sale prices are not available, generally are valued using the mean between the last bid and asked prices or, if both last bid and asked prices are not available, at the last quoted bid price. Last sale and bid and asked prices are provided by independent third party pricing services. In the case of equity securities not traded on an exchange, prices are typically determined by independent third party pricing services using a variety of techniques and methods.

The value of foreign securities is translated into U.S. dollars based on foreign currency exchange rate quotations supplied by a third party pricing source. Trading in non-U.S. equity securities is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the net asset value of the Fund's shares are determined as of such times. The Adviser may use a fair value model developed by an independent pricing service to value non-U.S. equity securities.

Options contracts are generally valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices on the principal exchange where they are traded. Over-the-counter ("OTC") options and options on swaps ("swaptions") are valued using prices supplied by independent pricing services, which consider such factors as market prices, market events, quotations from one or more

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **47**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

brokers, Treasury spreads, yields, maturities and ratings, or may use a pricing matrix or other fair value methods or techniques to provide an estimated value of the security or instrument.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued daily using the foreign exchange rate or, for longer term forward contract positions, the spot currency rate and the forward points on a daily basis, in each case provided by a third party pricing service. Contracts whose forward settlement date falls between two quoted days are valued by interpolation.

Swap contracts, including interest rate swaps, caps and floors (other than centrally cleared swap contracts), are valued at the dealer quotations obtained from reputable International Swap Dealers Association members. Centrally cleared swaps are valued at the daily settlement price provided by the central clearing counterparty.

Shares of open-end registered investment companies (including money market mutual funds) are valued at such funds' net asset value.

Securities or loan interests for which independent pricing services or broker-dealers are unable to supply prices or for which market prices and/or quotations are not readily available or are considered to be unreliable are valued by a fair valuation team comprised of certain personnel of the Adviser. Effective September 8, 2022, the Adviser is designated as the valuation designee for the Fund pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. The Adviser's fair valuation team is responsible for monitoring developments that may impact fair valued securities.

Inputs used when applying fair value methods to value a security may include credit ratings, the financial condition of the company, current market conditions and comparable securities. The Adviser may use fair value methods if it is determined that a significant event has occurred after the close of the exchange or market on which the security trades and prior to the determination of the Fund's net asset value. Examples of a significant event might include political or economic news, corporate restructurings, natural disasters, terrorist activity or trading halts. Thus, the valuation of the Fund's securities may differ significantly from exchange prices, and such differences could be material.

At October 31, 2022, four securities were valued using fair value methods representing 0.7% of net assets. The value of these fair valued securities was $967,772.

**B. Investment Income and Transactions**

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are recorded as soon as the Fund becomes aware of the ex-dividend data in the exercise of reasonable diligence.

**48 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

Interest income, including interest on income-bearing cash accounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend and interest income are reported net of unrecoverable foreign taxes withheld at the applicable country rates and net of income accrued on defaulted securities.

Interest and dividend income payable by delivery of additional shares is reclassified as PIK (payment-in-kind) income upon receipt and is included in interest and dividend income, respectively.

Principal amounts of mortgage-backed securities are adjusted for monthly paydowns. Premiums and discounts related to certain mortgage-backed securities are amortized or accreted in proportion to the monthly paydowns. All discounts/premiums on purchase prices of debt securities are accreted/amortized for financial reporting purposes over the life of the respective securities, and such accretion/amortization is included in interest income.

Security transactions are recorded as of trade date. Gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated on the identified cost method for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes.

**C. Foreign Currency Translation**

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates.

Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions, if any, represent, among other things, the net realized gains and losses on foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies and the difference between the amount of income accrued and the U.S. dollars actually received. Further, the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments are not segregated on the Statement of Operations from the effects of changes in the market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

**D. Federal Income Taxes**

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net taxable income and net realized capital gains, if any, to its shareowners. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required. As of October 31, 2022, the Fund did not accrue any interest or penalties with respect to uncertain tax positions, which, if applicable, would be recorded as an income tax expense on the Statement of Operations. Tax returns filed within the prior three years remain subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities.

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **49**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to shareowners are determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Distributions in excess of net investment income or net realized gains are temporary over distributions for financial statement purposes resulting from differences in the recognition or classification of income or distributions for financial statement and tax purposes. Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character, but are not adjusted for temporary differences.

A portion of the dividend income recorded by the Fund is from distributions by publicly traded real estate investment trusts ("REITs"), and such distributions for tax purposes may also consist of capital gains and return of capital. The actual return of capital and capital gains portions of such distributions will be determined by formal notifications from the REITs subsequent to the calendar year-end. Distributions received from the REITs that are determined to be a return of capital are recorded by the Fund as a reduction of the cost basis of the securities held and those determined to be capital gain are reflected as such on the Statement of Operations.

At October 31, 2022, the Fund reclassified $1,269,109 to increase distributable earnings and $1,269,109 to decrease paid-in capital to reflect permanent book/tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations.

At October 31, 2022, the Fund was permitted to carry forward indefinitely $21,196,187 of short-term and $284,508,492 of long-term losses.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **2022** | **2021** |
| **Distributions paid from:** |  |  |
| Ordinary income | $6981621 | $10171960 |
| Tax return of capital | 1880886 | 770265 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total** | **$8862507** | **$10942225** |

---

The following shows the components of distributable earnings (losses) on a federal income tax basis at October 31, 2022:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| | **2022** |
| **Distributable earnings/(losses):** |  |
| Capital loss carryforward | $(305704679) |
| Other book/tax temporary differences | (114434) |
| Net unrealized depreciation | (40090882) |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total** | **$(345909995)** |

---

**50 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized depreciation is attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the mark-to-market of foreign currency contracts and swaps, adjustments relating to catastrophe bonds and swaps.

**E. Fund Shares**

The Fund records sales and repurchases of its shares as of trade date. The Distributor earned $1,954 in underwriting commissions on the sale of Class A shares during the year ended October 31, 2022.

**F. Class Allocations**

Income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are calculated at the Fund level and allocated daily to each class of shares based on its respective percentage of adjusted net assets at the beginning of the day.

Distribution fees are calculated based on the average daily net asset value attributable to Class A and Class C shares of the Fund, respectively (see Note 5). Class Y shares do not pay distribution fees. All expenses and fees paid to the Fund's transfer agent for its services are allocated among the classes of shares based on the number of accounts in each class and the ratable allocation of related out-of-pocket expenses (see Note 4).

The Fund declares as daily dividends substantially all of its net investment income. All dividends are paid on a monthly basis. Short-term capital gain distributions, if any, may be declared with the daily dividends.

Distributions to shareowners are recorded as of the ex-dividend date. Distributions paid by the Fund with respect to each class of shares are calculated in the same manner and at the same time, except that net investment income dividends to Class A, Class C and Class Y shares can reflect different transfer agent and distribution expense rates.

**G. Risks**

The value of securities held by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, recessions, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, inflation, changes in interest rates, armed conflict including Russia's military invasion of Ukraine, sanctions against Russia, other nations or individuals or companies and possible countermeasures, lack of liquidity in the bond markets or adverse investor sentiment. In the past several years, financial markets have experienced increased volatility, depressed valuations, decreased liquidity and heightened uncertainty. These conditions may

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **51**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

continue, recur, worsen or spread. In recent years, interest rates and credit spreads in the U.S. have been at historic lows. The U.S. Federal Reserve has raised certain interest rates, and interest rates may continue to go up. A general rise in interest rates could adversely affect the price and liquidity of fixed-income securities and could also result in increased redemptions from the Fund. Rates of inflation have recently risen. The value of assets or income from an investment may be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the real value of the Fund's assets can decline as can the value of the Fund's distributions.

The global pandemic of the novel coronavirus respiratory disease designated COVID-19 has resulted in major disruption to economies and markets around the world, including the United States. Global financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and severe losses, and trading in many instruments has been disrupted. Liquidity for many instruments has been greatly reduced for periods of time. Some sectors of the economy and individual issuers have experienced particularly large losses. These circumstances may continue to affect adversely the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments. Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Russian securities have lost all, or nearly all, their market value. Other securities or markets could be similarly affected by past or future geopolitical or other events or conditions.

Governments and central banks, including the U.S. Federal Reserve, have taken extraordinary and unprecedented actions to support local and global economies and the financial markets. These actions have resulted in significant expansion of public debt, including in the U.S. The consequences of high public debt, including its future impact on the economy and securities markets, may not be known for some time.

At times, the Fund's investments may represent industries or industry sectors that are interrelated or have common risks, making the Fund more susceptible to any economic, political, or regulatory developments or other risks affecting those industries and sectors.

The Fund's investments in foreign markets and countries with limited developing markets may subject the Fund to a greater degree of risk than investments in a developed market. These risks include disruptive political or economic conditions, military conflicts and sanctions, terrorism, sustained economic downturns, financial instability, reduction of government or central bank support, inadequate accounting standards, tariffs, tax disputes or other tax burdens, nationalization or expropriation of assets, and the imposition of adverse governmental laws, arbitrary application of laws and regulations or lack of rule of law, or currency exchange restrictions. Lack of information and less market regulation also

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

may affect the value of these securities. Withholding and other non-U.S. taxes may decrease the Fund's return. Non-U.S. issuers may be located in parts of the world that have historically been prone to natural disasters. Investing in depositary receipts is subject to many of the same risks as investing directly in non-U.S. issuers. Depositary receipts may involve higher expenses and may trade at a discount (or premium) to the underlying security.

Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022. In response to the military action by Russia, various countries, including the U.S., the United Kingdom, and European Union issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia and Belarus and certain companies and individuals. Since then, Russian securities have lost all, or nearly all, their market value, and many other issuers, securities and markets have been adversely affected. The United States and other countries may impose sanctions on other countries, companies and individuals in light of Russia's military invasion. The extent and duration of the military action or future escalation of such hostilities, the extent and impact of existing and future sanctions, market disruptions and volatility, and the result of any diplomatic negotiations cannot be predicted. These and any related events could have a significant impact on the value and liquidity of certain Fund investments, on Fund performance and the value of an investment in the Fund, particularly with respect to securities and commodities, such as oil, natural gas and food commodities, as well as other sectors with exposure to Russian issuers or issuers in other countries affected by the invasion, and are likely to have collateral impacts on market sectors globally.

The Fund invests in below-investment-grade (high-yield) debt securities and preferred stocks. Some of these high-yield securities may be convertible into equity securities of the issuer. Debt securities rated below-investment-grade are commonly referred to as "junk bonds" and are considered speculative with respect to the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal. These securities involve greater risk of loss, are subject to greater price volatility, and may be less liquid and more difficult to value, especially during periods of economic uncertainty or change, than higher rated debt securities.

The Fund's investments, payment obligations and financing terms may be based on floating rates, such as LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) or SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate). ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of LIBOR, ceased publication of most LIBOR settings on a representative basis at the end of 2021 and is expected to cease publication of a majority of U.S. dollar LIBOR settings on a representative basis after June 30, 2023. In addition, global regulators have announced that, with limited exceptions, no new LIBOR-based contracts should be entered into

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **53**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

after 2021. Actions by regulators have resulted in the establishment of alternative reference rates to LIBOR in most major currencies. Markets are developing in response to these new rates, but questions around liquidity in these rates and how to appropriately adjust these rates to eliminate any economic value transfer at the time of transition remain a significant concern. The effect of any changes to – or discontinuation of – LIBOR on the Fund will vary depending on, among other things, existing fallback provisions in individual contracts and whether, how, and when industry participants develop and widely adopt new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new products and instruments. In March, 2022, the U.S. federal government enacted legislation to establish a process for replacing LIBOR in existing contracts that do not already provide for the use of a clearly defined or practicable replacement benchmark rate as described in the legislation. Generally speaking, for contracts that do not contain a fallback provision as described in the legislation, a benchmark replacement recommended by the Federal Reserve Board will effectively automatically replace the USD LIBOR benchmark in the contract after June 30, 2023. The recommended benchmark replacement will be based on the SOFR published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, including any recommended spread adjustment and benchmark replacement conforming changes. The process of transitioning from LIBOR may involve, among other things, increased volatility or illiquidity in markets for instruments that rely on LIBOR. The transition may also result in a reduction in the value of certain LIBOR-based investments held by the Fund or reduce the effectiveness of related transactions such as hedges. Any such effects of the transition away from LIBOR, as well as other unforeseen effects, could result in losses for the Fund. Because the usefulness of LIBOR as a benchmark may deteriorate during the transition period, these effects could occur at any time.

The Fund may invest in REIT securities, the value of which can fall for a variety of reasons, such as declines in rental income, fluctuating interest rates, poor property management, environmental liabilities, uninsured damage, increased competition, or changes in real estate tax laws.

With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet to conduct business, the Fund is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. While the Fund's Adviser has established business continuity plans in the event of, and risk management systems to prevent, limit or mitigate, such cyber-attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems, including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Fund cannot control the cybersecurity plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Fund such as the Fund's custodian and accounting agent, and the Fund's transfer agent. In addition, many beneficial owners of Fund shares hold them through

**54 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

accounts at broker-dealers, retirement platforms and other financial market participants over which neither the Fund nor the Adviser exercises control. Each of these may in turn rely on service providers to them, which are also subject to the risk of cyber-attacks. Cybersecurity failures or breaches at the Adviser or the Fund's service providers or intermediaries have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with the Fund's ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Fund shareowners to effect share purchases, redemptions or exchanges or receive distributions, loss of or unauthorized access to private shareowner information and violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, or additional compliance costs. Such costs and losses may not be covered under any insurance. In addition, maintaining vigilance against cyber-attacks may involve substantial costs over time, and system enhancements may themselves be subject to cyber-attacks.

The Fund's prospectus contains unaudited information regarding the Fund's principal risks. Please refer to that document when considering the Fund's principal risks.

**H. Restricted Securities**

Restricted Securities are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Restricted securities generally are resold in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Private placement securities are generally considered to be restricted except for those securities traded between qualified institutional investors under the provisions of Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933.

Disposal of restricted investments may involve negotiations and expenses, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult to achieve. Restricted investments held by the Fund at October 31, 2022 are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

**I. Insurance-Linked Securities ("ILS")**

The Fund invests in ILS. The Fund could lose a portion or all of the principal it has invested in an ILS, and the right to additional interest or dividend payments with respect to the security, upon the occurrence of one or more trigger events, as defined within the terms of an insurance-linked security. Trigger events, generally, are hurricanes, earthquakes, or other natural events of a specific size or magnitude that occur in a designated geographic region during a specified time period, and/or that involve losses or other metrics that exceed a specific amount. There is no way to accurately predict whether a trigger event will occur, and accordingly, ILS carry significant

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **55**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

risk. The Fund is entitled to receive principal, and interest and/or dividend payments so long as no trigger event occurs of the description and magnitude specified by the instrument. In addition to the specified trigger events, ILS may expose the Fund to other risks, including but not limited to issuer (credit) default, adverse regulatory or jurisdictional interpretations and adverse tax consequences.

The Fund's investments in ILS may include event-linked bonds. ILS also may include special purpose vehicles ("SPVs") or similar instruments structured to comprise a portion of a reinsurer's catastrophe-oriented business, known as quota share instruments (sometimes referred to as reinsurance sidecars), or to provide reinsurance relating to specific risks to insurance or reinsurance companies through a collateralized instrument, known as collateralized reinsurance. Structured reinsurance investments also may include industry loss warranties ("ILWs"). A traditional ILW takes the form of a bilateral reinsurance contract, but there are also products that take the form of derivatives, collateralized structures, or exchange-traded instruments.

Where the ILS are based on the performance of underlying reinsurance contracts, the Fund has limited transparency into the individual underlying contracts, and therefore must rely upon the risk assessment and sound underwriting practices of the issuer. Accordingly, it may be more difficult for the Adviser to fully evaluate the underlying risk profile of the Fund's structured reinsurance investments, and therefore the Fund's assets are placed at greater risk of loss than if the Adviser had more complete information. Structured reinsurance instruments generally will be considered illiquid securities by the Fund. These securities may be difficult to purchase, sell or unwind. Illiquid securities also may be difficult to value. If the Fund is forced to sell an illiquid asset, the Fund may be forced to sell at a loss.

**J. Purchased Options**

The Fund may purchase put and call options to seek to increase total return. Purchased call and put options entitle the Fund to buy and sell a specified number of shares or units of a particular security, currency or index at a specified price at a specific date or within a specific period of time. Upon the purchase of a call or put option, the premium paid by the Fund is included on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment. All premiums are marked-to-market daily, and any unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded on the Fund's Statement of Operations. As the purchaser of an index option, the Fund has the right to receive a cash payment equal to any depreciation in the value of the index below the strike price of the option (in the case of a put) or equal to any

**56 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

appreciation in the value of the index over the strike price of the option (in the case of a call) as of the valuation date of the option. Premiums paid for purchased call and put options which have expired are treated as realized losses on investments on the Statement of Operations. Upon the exercise or closing of a purchased put option, the premium is offset against the proceeds on the sale of the underlying security or financial instrument in order to determine the realized gain or loss on investments. Upon the exercise or closing of a purchased call option, the premium is added to the cost of the security or financial instrument. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.

The average market value of purchased options contracts open during the year ended October 31, 2022 was $291,203. Open purchased options at October 31, 2022 are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

**K. Option Writing**

The Fund may write put and covered call options to seek to increase total return. When an option is written, the Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to purchase or sell the underlying security at a fixed price, upon the exercise of the option. When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is recorded as "Written options outstanding" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and is subsequently adjusted to the current value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are treated by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from investments on the Statement of Operations. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain on the Statement of Operations, or, if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss on the Statement of Operations. If a call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. The Fund as writer of an option bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option.

The average market value of written options for the year ended October 31, 2022 was $(32,854). Open written options contracts at October 31, 2022 are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

**L. Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts**

The Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts ("contracts") for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date. All contracts are marked-to-market daily at the

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **57**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

applicable exchange rates, and any resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation is recorded in the Fund's financial statements. The Fund records realized gains and losses at the time a contract is offset by entry into a closing transaction or extinguished by delivery of the currency. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar (see Note 8).

During the year ended October 31, 2022, the Fund had entered into various forward foreign currency exchange contracts that obligated the Fund to deliver or take delivery of currencies at specified future maturity dates. Alternatively, prior to the settlement date of a forward foreign currency exchange contract, the Fund may close out such contract by entering into an offsetting contract.

The average market value of forward foreign currency exchange contracts open during the year ended October 31, 2022 was $15,616,892 and $12,392,247 for buys and sells, respectively. Open forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding at October 31, 2022 are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

**M. Credit Default Swap Contracts**

A credit default swap is a contract between a buyer of protection and a seller of protection against a pre-defined credit event or an underlying reference obligation, which may be a single security or a basket or index of securities. The Fund may buy or sell credit default swap contracts to seek to increase the Fund's income, or to attempt to hedge the risk of default on portfolio securities. A credit default swap index is used to hedge risk or take a position on a basket of credit entities or indices.

As a seller of protection, the Fund would be required to pay the notional (or other agreed-upon) value of the referenced debt obligation to the counterparty in the event of a default by a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer of a debt obligation, which would likely result in a loss to the Fund. In return, the Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments during the term of the contract, provided that no event of default occurred. The maximum exposure of loss to the seller would be the notional value of the credit default swaps outstanding. If no default occurs, the Fund would keep the stream of payments and would have no payment obligation. The Fund may also buy credit default swap contracts in order to hedge against the risk of default of debt securities, in which case the Fund would function as the counterparty referenced above.

**58 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

As a buyer of protection, the Fund makes an upfront or periodic payment to the protection seller in exchange for the right to receive a contingent payment. An upfront payment made by the Fund, as the protection buyer, is recorded within the "Swap contracts, at value" line item on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Periodic payments received or paid by the Fund are recorded as realized gains or losses on the Statement of Operations.

Credit default swap contracts are marked-to-market daily using valuations supplied by independent sources, and the change in value, if any, is recorded within the "Swap contracts, at value" line item on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received or made as a result of a credit event or upon termination of the contract are recognized, net of the appropriate amount of the upfront payment, as realized gains or losses on the Statement of Operations.

Credit default swap contracts involving the sale of protection may involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the referenced debt instrument directly. Credit default swap contracts are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk. If the Fund is a protection buyer and no credit event occurs, it will lose its investment. If the Fund is a protection seller and a credit event occurs, the value of the referenced debt instrument received by the Fund, together with the periodic payments received, may be less than the amount the Fund pays to the protection buyer, resulting in a loss to the Fund. In addition, obligations under sell protection credit default swaps may be partially offset by net amounts received from settlement of buy protection credit default swaps entered into by the Fund for the same reference obligation with the same counterparty.

Certain swap contracts that are cleared through a central clearinghouse are referred to as centrally cleared swaps. All payments made or received by the Fund are pursuant to a centrally cleared swap contract with the central clearing party rather than the original counterparty. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap contract, the Fund is required to make an initial margin deposit, either in cash or in securities. The daily change in value on open centrally cleared contracts is recorded as "Variation margin for centrally cleared swap contracts" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Cash received from or paid to the broker related to previous margin movement is held in a segregated account at the broker and is recorded as either "Due from broker for swaps" or "Due to broker for swaps" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The amount of cash deposited with a broker as collateral at October 31, 2022 is recorded as "Swaps collateral" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **59**

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

The average market value of credit default swap contracts open during the year ended October 31, 2022 was $(487,586). Open credit default swap contracts at October 31, 2022 are listed in the Schedule of Investments.

**2. Management Agreement**

The Adviser manages the Fund's portfolio. Management fees payable under the Fund's Investment Management Agreement with the Adviser are calculated daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.70% of the Fund's average daily net assets up to $500 million of the Fund's average daily net assets; 0.65% of the next $500 million of the Fund's average daily net assets; 0.60% of the next $500 million of the Fund's average daily net assets; 0.55% of the next $500 million of the Fund's average daily net assets; and 0.45% of the Fund's average daily net assets over $2 billion. For the year ended October 31, 2022, the effective management fee (excluding waivers and/or assumption of expenses) was equivalent to 0.70% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

The Adviser has contractually agreed to limit ordinary operating expenses (ordinary operating expenses means all fund expenses other than taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses, such as litigation) of the Fund to the extent required to reduce Fund expenses to 1.14% and 0.90% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A and Class Y shares, respectively. These expense limitations are in effect through March 1, 2023. There can be no assurance that the Adviser will extend the expense limitation agreement for a class of shares beyond the date referred to above. Fees waived and expenses reimbursed during the year ended October 31, 2022 are reflected on the Statement of Operations.

In addition, under the management and administration agreements, certain other services and costs, including accounting, regulatory reporting and insurance premiums, are paid by the Fund as administrative reimbursements. Included in "Due to affiliates" reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities is $23,279 in management fees, administrative costs and certain other reimbursements payable to the Adviser at October 31, 2022.

**3. Compensation of Trustees and Officers**

The Fund pays an annual fee to its Trustees. The Adviser reimburses the Fund for fees paid to the Interested Trustees. The Fund does not pay any salary or other compensation to its officers. For the year ended October 31, 2022, the Fund paid $9,150 in Trustees' compensation, which is reflected on the Statement of Operations as Trustees' fees. At October 31, 2022, the Fund had a payable for Trustees' fees on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities of $769.

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

**4. Transfer Agent**

For the period from November 1, 2021 to November 21, 2021, DST Asset Manager Solutions, Inc. served as the transfer agent to the Fund at negotiated rates. Effective November 22, 2021, BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. serves as the transfer agent to the Fund at negotiated rates. Transfer agent fees and payables shown on the Statement of Operations and the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, respectively, include sub-transfer agent expenses incurred through the Fund's omnibus relationship contracts.

In addition, the Fund reimbursed the transfer agent for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the transfer agent related to shareowner communications activities such as proxy and statement mailings, and outgoing phone calls. For the year ended October 31, 2022, such out-of-pocket expenses by class of shares were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Shareowner Communications:** | |
| Class A | $24094 |
| Class C | 1505 |
| Class Y | 5069 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Total** | **$30668** |

---

**5. Distribution Plan**

The Fund has adopted a distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 with respect to its Class A and Class C shares. Pursuant to the Plan, the Fund pays the Distributor 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares as compensation for personal services and/or account maintenance services or distribution services with regard to Class A shares. Pursuant to the Plan, the Fund also pays the Distributor 1.00% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares. The fee for Class C shares consists of a 0.25% service fee and a 0.75% distribution fee paid as compensation for personal services and/or account maintenance services or distribution services with regard to Class C shares. Pursuant to the Plan, the Fund further pays for the distribution services. Included in "Due to affiliates" reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities is $3,840 in distribution fees payable to the Distributor at October 31, 2022.

In addition, redemptions of Class A and Class C shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC"). A CDSC of 1.00% may be imposed on redemptions of certain net asset value purchases of Class A shares within 12 months of purchase. Redemptions of Class C shares within 12 months of purchase are subject to a CDSC of 1.00%, based on the lower

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **61**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

of cost or market value of shares being redeemed. Shares purchased as part of an exchange remain subject to any CDSC that applied to the original purchase of those shares. There is no CDSC for Class Y shares. Proceeds from the CDSCs are paid to the Distributor. For the year ended October 31, 2022, CDSCs in the amount of $1,414 were paid to the Distributor.

**6. Line of Credit Facility**

The Fund, along with certain other funds in the Pioneer Family of Funds, participates in a committed, unsecured revolving line of credit ("credit facility"). Borrowings are used solely for temporary or emergency purposes. The Fund may borrow up to the lesser of the amount available under the credit facility or the limits set for borrowing by the Fund's prospectus and the 1940 Act. Effective February 2, 2022, the Fund participates in a credit facility in the amount of $380 million. Prior to February 2, 2022, the Fund participated in a facility in the amount of $450 million. Under such credit facility, depending on the type of loan, interest on borrowings is payable at the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a credit spread. The Fund also pays both an upfront fee and an annual commitment fee to participate in the credit facility. The upfront fee in the amount of 0.10% of the total credit facility and the commitment fee in the amount of 0.25% of the daily unused portion of each lender's commitment are allocated among participating funds based on an allocation schedule set forth in the credit agreement. For the year ended October 31, 2022, the Fund had no borrowings under the credit facility.

**7. Master Netting Agreements**

The Fund has entered into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement ("ISDA Master Agreement") or similar agreement with substantially all of its derivative counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Fund and a counterparty that governs the trading of certain Over the Counter ("OTC") derivatives and typically contains, among other things, close-out and set-off provisions which apply upon the occurrence of an event of default and/or a termination event as defined under the relevant ISDA Master Agreement. The ISDA Master Agreement may also give a party the right to terminate all transactions traded under such agreement if, among other things, there is deterioration in the credit quality of the other party.

Upon an event of default or a termination of the ISDA Master Agreement, the non-defaulting party has the right to close-out all transactions under such agreement and to net amounts owed under each transaction to

**62 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

determine one net amount payable by one party to the other. The right to close out and net payments across all transactions under the ISDA Master Agreement could result in a reduction of the Fund's credit risk to its counterparty equal to any amounts payable by the Fund under the applicable transactions, if any. However, the Fund's right to set-off may be restricted or prohibited by the bankruptcy or insolvency laws of the particular jurisdiction to which each specific ISDA Master Agreement of each counterparty is subject.

The collateral requirements for derivatives transactions under an ISDA Master Agreement are governed by a credit support annex to the ISDA Master Agreement. Collateral requirements are generally determined at the close of business each day and are typically based on changes in market values for each transaction under an ISDA Master Agreement and netted into one amount for such agreement. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty is subject to threshold (a "minimum transfer amount") before a transfer is required, which may vary by counterparty. Collateral pledged for the benefit of the Fund and/or counterparty is held in segregated accounts by the Fund's custodian and cannot be sold, re-pledged, assigned or otherwise used while pledged. Cash that has been segregated to cover the Fund's collateral obligations, if any, will be reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as "Swaps collateral". Securities pledged by the Fund as collateral, if any, are identified as such in the Schedule of Investments.

Financial instruments subject to an enforceable master netting agreement, such as an ISDA Master Agreement, have been offset on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The following charts show gross assets and liabilities of the Fund as of October 31, 2022.

**Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

**To the Board of Trustees of Pioneer Series Trust VII and the Shareholders of Pioneer Global High Yield Fund:**

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Pioneer Global High Yield Fund (the "Fund") (one of the funds constituting Pioneer Series Trust VII (the "Trust")), including the schedule of investments, as of October 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pioneer Global High Yield Fund (one of the funds constituting Pioneer Series Trust VII) at October 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **67**

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers and others, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

**Approval of Renewal of Investment Management Agreement**

Amundi Asset Management US, Inc. ("Amundi US") serves as the investment adviser to Pioneer Global High Yield Fund (the "Fund") pursuant to an investment management agreement between Amundi US and the Fund. In order for Amundi US to remain the investment adviser of the Fund, the Trustees of the Fund, including a majority of the Fund's Independent Trustees, must determine annually whether to renew the investment management agreement for the Fund.

The contract review process began in January 2022 as the Trustees of the Fund agreed on, among other things, an overall approach and timeline for the process. Contract review materials were provided to the Trustees in March 2022, July 2022 and September 2022. In addition, the Trustees reviewed and discussed the Fund's performance at regularly scheduled meetings throughout the year, and took into account other information related to the Fund provided to the Trustees at regularly scheduled meetings, in connection with the review of the Fund's investment management agreement.

In March 2022, the Trustees, among other things, discussed the memorandum provided by Fund counsel that summarized the legal standards and other considerations that are relevant to the Trustees in their deliberations regarding the renewal of the investment management agreement, and reviewed and discussed the qualifications of the investment management teams for the Fund, as well as the level of investment by the Fund's portfolio managers in the Fund. In July 2022, the Trustees, among other things, reviewed the Fund's management fees and total expense ratios, the financial statements of Amundi US and its parent companies, profitability analyses provided by Amundi US, and analyses from Amundi US as to possible economies of scale. The Trustees also reviewed the profitability of the institutional business of Amundi US as compared to that of Amundi US's fund management business, and considered the differences between the fees and expenses of the Fund and the fees and expenses of Amundi US's institutional accounts, as well as the different services provided by Amundi US to the Fund and to the institutional accounts. The Trustees further considered contract review materials, including additional materials received in response to the Trustees' request, in September 2022.

At a meeting held on September 20, 2022, based on their evaluation of the information provided by Amundi US and third parties, the Trustees of the Fund, including the Independent Trustees voting separately advised by independent counsel, unanimously approved the renewal of the investment management agreement for another year. In approving the renewal of the

**70 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

investment management agreement, the Trustees considered various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors described below. The Trustees did not identify any single factor as the controlling factor in determining to approve the renewal of the agreement.

**Nature, Extent and Quality of Services**

The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services that had been provided by Amundi US to the Fund, taking into account the investment objective and strategy of the Fund. The Trustees also reviewed Amundi US's investment approach for the Fund and its research process. The Trustees considered the resources of Amundi US and the personnel of Amundi US who provide investment management services to the Fund. They also reviewed the amount of non-Fund assets managed by the portfolio managers of the Fund. They considered the non-investment resources and personnel of Amundi US that are involved in Amundi US's services to the Fund, including Amundi US's compliance, risk management, and legal resources and personnel. The Trustees noted the substantial attention and high priority given by Amundi US's senior management to the Pioneer Fund complex, including with respect to the increasing regulation to which the Pioneer Funds are subject. The Trustees considered the effectiveness of Amundi US's business continuity plan in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The Trustees considered that Amundi US supervises and monitors the performance of the Fund's service providers and provides the Fund with personnel (including Fund officers) and other resources that are necessary for the Fund's business management and operations. The Trustees also considered that, as administrator, Amundi US is responsible for the administration of the Fund's business and other affairs. The Trustees considered that the Fund reimburses Amundi US its pro rata share of Amundi US's costs of providing administration services to the Pioneer Funds.

Based on these considerations, the Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services that had been provided by Amundi US to the Fund were satisfactory and consistent with the terms of the investment management agreement.

**Performance of the Fund**

In considering the Fund's performance, the Trustees regularly review and discuss throughout the year data prepared by Amundi US and information comparing the Fund's performance with the performance of its peer group of funds, as classified by Morningstar, Inc. (Morningstar), and with the performance of the Fund's benchmark index. They also discuss the Fund's

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **71**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

performance with Amundi US on a regular basis. The Trustees' regular reviews and discussions were factored into the Trustees' deliberations concerning the renewal of the investment management agreement.

**Management Fee and Expenses**

The Trustees considered information showing the fees and expenses of the Fund in comparison to the management fees of its peer group of funds as classified by Morningstar and also to the expense ratios of a peer group of funds selected on the basis of criteria determined by the Independent Trustees for this purpose using data provided by Strategic Insight Mutual Fund Research and Consulting, LLC (Strategic Insight), an independent third party. The peer group comparisons referred to below are organized in quintiles. Each quintile represents one-fifth of the peer group. In all peer group comparisons referred to below, first quintile is most favorable to the Fund's shareowners. The Trustees noted that they separately review and consider the impact of the Fund's transfer agency and Fund- and Amundi US-paid expenses for sub-transfer agency and intermediary arrangements, and that the results of the most recent such review were considered in the consideration of the Fund's expense ratio.

The Trustees considered that the Fund's management fee for the most recent fiscal year was in the fifth quintile relative to the management fees paid by other funds in its Morningstar category for the comparable period. The Trustees noted Amundi US's explanation of the reasons that the Fund's management fee was in the fifth quintile relative to the management fees paid by other funds in its Morningstar category. The Trustees considered that the expense ratio of the Fund's Class Y shares for the most recent fiscal year was in the fifth quintile relative to its Strategic Insight peer group for the comparable period. The Trustees considered that the expense ratio of the Fund's Class A shares for the most recent fiscal year was in the fourth quintile relative to its Strategic Insight peer group for the comparable period. The Trustees noted Amundi US's explanation of the reasons that the expense ratio of the Fund's Class Y shares was in the fifth quintile relative to its Strategic Insight peer group and the expense ratio of the Fund's Class A shares was in the fourth quintile relative to its Strategic Insight peer group. The Trustees noted that Amundi US had agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in order to limit the ordinary operating expenses of the Fund.

The Trustees reviewed management fees charged by Amundi US to institutional and other clients, including publicly offered European funds sponsored by Amundi US's affiliates, unaffiliated U.S. registered investment companies (in a sub-advisory capacity), and unaffiliated foreign and domestic separate accounts. The Trustees also considered Amundi US's

**72 Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

costs in providing services to the Fund and Amundi US's costs in providing services to the other clients and considered the differences in management fees and profit margins for fund and non-fund services. In evaluating the fees associated with Amundi US's client accounts, the Trustees took into account the respective demands, resources and complexity associated with the Fund and other client accounts. The Trustees noted that, in some instances, the fee rates for those clients were lower than the management fee for the Fund and considered that, under the investment management and administration agreements with the Fund, Amundi US performs additional services for the Fund that it does not provide to those other clients or services that are broader in scope, including oversight of the Fund's other service providers and activities related to compliance and the extensive regulatory and tax regimes to which the Fund is subject. The Trustees also considered the entrepreneurial risks associated with Amundi US's management of the Fund.

The Trustees concluded that the management fee payable by the Fund to Amundi US was reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of the services provided by Amundi US.

**Profitability**

The Trustees considered information provided by Amundi US regarding the profitability of Amundi US with respect to the advisory services provided by Amundi US to the Fund, including the methodology used by Amundi US in allocating certain of its costs to the management of the Fund. The Trustees also considered Amundi US's profit margin in connection with the overall operation of the Fund. They further reviewed the financial results, including the profit margins, realized by Amundi US from non-fund businesses. The Trustees considered Amundi US's profit margins in comparison to the limited industry data available and noted that the profitability of any adviser was affected by numerous factors, including its organizational structure and method for allocating expenses. The Trustees concluded that Amundi US's profitability with respect to the management of the Fund was not unreasonable.

**Economies of Scale**

The Trustees considered Amundi US's views relating to economies of scale in connection with the Pioneer Funds as fund assets grow and the extent to which any such economies of scale are shared with the Fund and Fund shareholders. The Trustees recognize that economies of scale are difficult to identify and quantify, and that, among other factors that may be relevant, are the following: fee levels, expense subsidization, investment by Amundi US in research and analytical capabilities and Amundi US's commitment

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **73**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

and resource allocation to the Fund. The Trustees noted that profitability also may be an indicator of the availability of any economies of scale, although profitability may vary for other reasons including due to reductions in expenses. The Trustees concluded that economies of scale, if any, were being appropriately shared with the Fund.

**Other Benefits**

The Trustees considered the other benefits that Amundi US enjoys from its relationship with the Fund. The Trustees considered the character and amount of fees paid or to be paid by the Fund, other than under the investment management agreement, for services provided by Amundi US and its affiliates. The Trustees further considered the revenues and profitability of Amundi US's businesses other than the Fund business. To the extent applicable, the Trustees also considered the benefits to the Fund and to Amundi US and its affiliates from the use of "soft" commission dollars generated by the Fund to pay for research and brokerage services.

The Trustees considered that Amundi US is the principal U.S. asset management business of Amundi, which is one of the largest asset managers globally. Amundi's worldwide asset management business manages over $2.2 trillion in assets (including the Pioneer Funds). The Trustees considered that Amundi US's relationship with Amundi creates potential opportunities for Amundi US and Amundi that derive from Amundi US's relationships with the Fund, including Amundi's ability to market the services of Amundi US globally. The Trustees noted that Amundi US has access to additional research and portfolio management capabilities as a result of its relationship with Amundi and Amundi's enhanced global presence that may contribute to an increase in the resources available to Amundi US. The Trustees considered that Amundi US and the Fund receive reciprocal intangible benefits from the relationship, including mutual brand recognition and, for the Fund, direct and indirect access to the resources of a large global asset manager. The Trustees concluded that any such benefits received by Amundi US as a result of its relationship with the Fund were reasonable.

**Conclusion**

After consideration of the factors described above as well as other factors, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the investment management agreement for the Fund, including the fees payable thereunder, was fair and reasonable and voted to approve the proposed renewal of the investment management agreement.

**Statement Regarding Liquidity Risk Management Program**

As required by law, the Fund has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the "Program") that is designed to assess and manage liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund could not meet requests to redeem its shares without significant dilution of remaining investors' interests in the Fund. The Fund's Board of Trustees designated a liquidity risk management committee (the "Committee") consisting of employees of Amundi Asset Management US, Inc. (the "Adviser") to administer the Program.

The Committee provided the Board of Trustees with a report that addressed the operation of the Program and assessed its adequacy and effectiveness of implementation (the "Report"). The Report covered the period from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 (the "Reporting Period").

The Report confirmed that, throughout the Reporting Period, the Committee had monitored the Fund's portfolio liquidity and liquidity risk on an ongoing basis, as described in the Program and in Board reporting throughout the Reporting Period.

The Report discussed the Committee's annual review of the Program, which addressed, among other things, the following elements of the Program:

The Committee reviewed the Fund's investment strategy and liquidity of portfolio investments during both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions. The Committee noted that the Fund's investment strategy continues to be appropriate for an open-end fund, taking into account, among other things, whether and to what extent the Fund held less liquid and illiquid assets and the extent to which any such investments affected the Fund's ability to meet redemption requests. In managing and reviewing the Fund's liquidity risk, the Committee also considered the extent to which the Fund's investment strategy involves a relatively concentrated portfolio or large positions in particular issuers, the extent to which the Fund uses borrowing for investment purposes, and the extent to which the Fund uses derivatives (including for hedging purposes). The Committee also reviewed the Fund's short-term and long-term cash flow projections during both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions. In assessing the Fund's cash flow projections, the Committee considered, among other factors, historical net redemption activity, redemption policies, ownership concentration, distribution channels, and

**Pioneer Global High Yield Fund \|** Annual Report **\|** 10/31/22 **75**

------

[**Table of Contents**](#GHYF_TofC)

the degree of certainty associated with the Fund's short-term and long-term cash flow projections. The Committee also considered the Fund's holdings of cash and cash equivalents, as well as borrowing arrangements and other funding sources, including, if applicable, the Fund's participation in a credit facility, as components of the Fund's ability to meet redemption requests. The Fund has adopted an in-kind redemption policy which may be utilized to meet larger redemption requests.

The Committee reviewed the Program's liquidity classification methodology for categorizing the Fund's investments into one of four liquidity buckets. In reviewing the Fund's investments, the Committee considered, among other factors, whether trading varying portions of a position in a particular portfolio investment or asset class in sizes the Fund would reasonably anticipate trading, would be reasonably expected to significantly affect liquidity.

The Committee performed an analysis to determine whether the Fund is required to maintain a Highly Liquid Investment Minimum, and determined that no such minimum is required because the Fund primarily holds highly liquid investments.

The Report stated that the Committee concluded the Program operates adequately and effectively, in all material respects, to assess and manage the Fund's liquidity risk throughout the Reporting Period.

PIONEER FUNDS

APPROVAL OF AUDIT, AUDIT-RELATED, TAX AND OTHER SERVICES

PROVIDED BY THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR

SECTION I - POLICY PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY

The Pioneer Funds recognize the importance of maintaining the independence of their outside auditors. Maintaining independence is a shared responsibility involving Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., the audit committee and the independent auditors.

The Funds recognize that a Fund's independent auditors: 1) possess knowledge of the Funds, 2) are able to incorporate certain services into the scope of the audit, thereby avoiding redundant work, cost and disruption of Fund personnel and processes, and 3) have expertise that has value to the Funds. As a result, there are situations where it is desirable to use the Fund's independent auditors for services in addition to the annual audit and where the potential for conflicts of interests are minimal. Consequently, this policy, which is intended to comply with Rule 210.2-01(C)(7), sets forth guidelines and procedures to be followed by the Funds when retaining the independent audit firm to perform audit, audit-related tax and other services under those circumstances, while also maintaining independence.

Approval of a service in accordance with this policy for a Fund shall also constitute approval for any other Fund whose pre-approval is required pursuant to Rule 210.2-01(c)(7)(ii).

In addition to the procedures set forth in this policy, any non-audit services that may be provided consistently with Rule 210.2-01 may be approved by the Audit Committee itself and any pre-approval that may be waived in accordance with Rule 210.2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) is hereby waived.

Selection of a Fund's independent auditors and their compensation shall be determined by the Audit Committee and shall not be subject to this policy.

GENERAL AUDIT COMMITTEE APPROVAL POLICY:

o For all projects, the officers of the Funds and the Fund's auditors will each make an assessment to determine that any proposed projects will not impair independence.

o Potential services will be classified into the four non-restricted service categories and the "Approval of Audit, Audit-Related, Tax and Other Services" Policy above will be applied. Any services outside the specific pre-approved service subcategories set forth above must be specifically approved by the Audit Committee.

o At least quarterly, the Audit Committee shall review a report summarizing the services by service category, including fees, provided by the Audit firm as set forth in the above policy.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Disclose the percentage of services described in each of paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item that were approved by the audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

Non-Audit Services

Beginning with non-audit service contracts entered into on or after May 6, 2003, the effective date of the

new SEC pre-approval rules, the Trust's audit committee is required to pre-approve services to

affiliates defined by SEC rules to the extent that the services are determined to have a direct impact on the operations or financial reporting of the Trust. For the years ended October 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no services provided to an affiliate that required the Trust's audit committee pre-approval.

(f) If greater than 50 percent, disclose the percentage of hours expended on the principal accountants engagement to audit the registrant's financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant's full-time, permanent employees.

N/A

(g) Disclose the aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrants accountant for services rendered to the registrant, and rendered to the registrants investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant for each of the last two fiscal years of the registrant.

The Trust paid aggregate non-audit fees to Ernst & Young LLP for tax services of $14,959 and $13,915 during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

(h) Disclose whether the registrants audit committee of the Board of Trustees has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrants investment adviser (not including any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence.

The Fund's audit committee of the Board of Trustees has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Affiliates (as defined) that were not pre- approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence.

## Ex-99.Code

**CODE OF ETHICS** 

**FOR**

**SENIOR OFFICERS**

Policy

This Code of Ethics for Senior Officers (this "Code") sets forth the policies, practices and values expected to be exhibited by Senior Officers of the Pioneer Funds (collectively, the "Funds" and each, a "Fund"). This Code does not apply generally to officers and employees of service providers to the Funds, including Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., and Amundi Distributor US, Inc. (collectively, "Amundi US"), unless such officers and employees are also Senior Officers.

The term "Senior Officers" shall mean the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller of the Funds, although one person may occupy more than one such office. Each Senior Officer is identified by title in Exhibit A to this Code.

The Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO") of the Pioneer Funds is primarily responsible for implementing and monitoring compliance with this Code, subject to the overall supervision of the Board of Trustees of the Funds (the "Board"). The CCO has the authority to interpret this Code and its applicability to particular situations. Any questions about this Code should be directed to the CCO or his or her designee.

Purpose

The purposes of this Code are to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Promote honest and ethical conduct, including
the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Promote full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable
disclosure in reports and documents that the Fund files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
and in other public communications made by the Fund;

<br> 1 Last revised January 2021

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Promote compliance with applicable laws and
governmental rules and regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Promote the prompt internal reporting of violations
of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Establish accountability for adherence to the
Code.

Each Senior Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as apparent conflicts of interest.

Responsibilities of Senior Officers

**Conflicts of Interest**

A "conflict of interest" occurs when a Senior Officer's private interests interfere in any way – or even appear to interfere – with the interests of or his/her service to a Fund. A conflict can arise when a Senior Officer takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her Fund work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest also arise when a Senior Officer or a member of his/her family receives improper personal benefits as a result of the Senior Officer's position with the Fund.

Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between Senior Officers and the Fund and already are subject to conflict of interest provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "ICA"), and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "IAA"). For example, Senior Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with the Funds because of their status as "affiliated persons" of the Funds. The Fund's and Amundi US' compliance programs and procedures are designed to prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. This Code does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace such policies and procedures, and such conflicts fall outside of the parameters of this Code.

Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts arise as a result of the contractual relationship between the Fund and Amundi US because the Senior Officers are officers or employees of both. As a result, this Code recognizes that Senior Officers will, in the normal course of their duties (whether formally for a Fund or for Amundi US, or for both), be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that will have different effects on Amundi US and the Fund. The participation of Senior Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationship between a Fund and Amundi US and is consistent with the performance by the Senior Officers of their duties as officers of the Fund and, if addressed in conformity with the provisions of the ICA and the IAA, will be deemed to have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Board that Senior Officers may also be officers of investment companies other than the Pioneer Funds.

Other conflicts of interest are covered by this Code, even if such conflicts of interest are not subject to provisions of the ICA or the IAA. In reading the following examples of conflicts of interest under this Code, Senior Officers should keep in mind that such a list cannot ever be exhaustive or cover every possible scenario. It follows that the overarching principle is that the personal interest of a Senior Officer should not be placed improperly before the interest of a Fund.

<br> 2 Last revised January 2021

Each Senior Officer must:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Not use his or her personal influence or personal
relationships improperly to influence investment decisions or financial reporting by a Fund whereby the Senior Officer would benefit personally
to the detriment of the Fund;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Not cause a Fund to take action, or fail to
take action, for the individual personal benefit of the Senior Officer rather than the benefit of the Fund; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Report at least annually any affiliations or
other relationships that give rise to conflicts of interest.

Any material conflict of interest situation should be approved by the CCO, his or her designee or the Board. Examples of these include:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Service as a director on the board of any public
or private company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The receipt of any gift with a value in excess
of an amount established from time to time by Amundi US' Business Gift and Entertainment Policy from any single non-relative person
or entity. Customary business lunches, dinners and entertainment at which both the Senior Officer and the giver are present, and promotional
items of insignificant value are exempt from this prohibition;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The receipt of any entertainment from any company
with which a Fund has current or prospective business dealings unless such entertainment is business-related, reasonable in cost, appropriate
as to time and place, and not so frequent as to raise any question of impropriety;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Any ownership interest in, or any consulting
or employment relationship with, any of a Fund's service providers other than its investment adviser, principal underwriter, administrator
or any affiliated person thereof; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· A direct or indirect financial interest in
commissions, transaction charges or spreads paid by a Fund for effecting portfolio transactions or for selling or redeeming shares other
than an interest arising from the Senior Officer's employment, such as compensation or equity ownership.

**Corporate Opportunities**

Senior Officers may not (a) take for themselves personally opportunities that are discovered through the use of a Fund's property, information or position; (b) use a Fund's property, information, or position for personal gain; or (c) compete with a Fund. Senior Officers owe a duty to the Funds to advance their legitimate interests when the opportunity to do so arises.

<br> 3 Last revised January 2021

**Confidentiality**

Senior Officers should maintain the confidentiality of information entrusted to them by the Funds, except when disclosure is authorized or legally mandated. Confidential information includes all non-public information that might be of use to competitors, or harmful to the Funds, if disclosed.

**Fair dealing with Fund shareholders, suppliers, and competitors**

Senior Officers should endeavor to deal fairly with the Funds' shareholders, suppliers, and competitors. Senior Officers should not take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other unfair-dealing practice. Senior Officers should not knowingly misrepresent or cause others to misrepresent facts about a Fund to others, whether within or outside the Fund, including to the Board, the Funds' auditors or to governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations.

**Compliance with Law**

Each Senior Officer must not knowingly violate any law, rule and regulation applicable to his or her activities as an officer of the Funds. In addition, Senior Officers are responsible for understanding and promoting compliance with the laws, rules and regulations applicable to his or her particular position and by persons under the Senior Officer's supervision. Senior Officers should endeavor to comply not only with the letter of the law, but also with the spirit of the law.

**Disclosure**

Each Senior Officer should familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Funds. Each Senior Officer should, to the extent appropriate within his or her area of responsibility, consult with other officers of the Funds and Amundi US with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents a Fund files with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Funds.

Initial and Annual Certifications

Upon becoming a Senior Officer the Senior Officer is required to certify that he or she has received, read, and understands this Code. On an annual basis, each Senior Officer must certify that he or she has complied with all of the applicable requirements of this Code.

Administration and Enforcement of the Code

**Report of Violations**

Amundi US relies on each Senior Officer to report promptly if he or she knows of any conduct by a Senior Officer in violation of this Code. All violations or suspected violations of this Code must be reported to the CCO or a member of Amundi US' Legal and Compliance Department. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code.

<br> 4 Last revised January 2021

**Investigation of Violations**

Upon notification of a violation or suspected violation, the CCO or other members of Amundi US' Compliance Department will take all appropriate action to investigate the potential violation reported. If, after such investigation, the CCO believes that no violation has occurred, the CCO and Compliance Department is not required to take no further action. Any matter the CCO believes is a violation will be reported to the Independent Trustees. If the Independent Trustees concur that a violation has occurred, they will inform and make a recommendation to the full Board. The Board shall be responsible for determining appropriate action. The Funds, their officers and employees, will not retaliate against any Senior Officer for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith and without malicious intent.

The CCO or his or her designee is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. The CCO or his or her designee shall make inquiries regarding any potential conflict of interest.

**Violations and Sanctions**

Compliance with this Code is expected and violations of its provisions will be taken seriously and could result in disciplinary action. In response to violations of the Code, the Board may impose such sanctions as it deems appropriate within the scope of its authority over Senior Officers, including termination as an officer of the Funds.

**Waivers from the Code**

The Independent Trustees will consider any approval or waiver sought by any Senior Officer.

The Independent Trustees will be responsible for granting waivers, as appropriate. Any change to or waiver of this Code will, to the extent required, be disclosed as provided by SEC rules.

Other Policies and Procedures

This Code shall be the sole Code of Ethics adopted by the Funds for purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. The Funds' and Amundi US' Codes of Ethics under Rule 17j-1 under the ICA and Rule 204A-1 of the IAA are separate requirements applying to the Senior Officers and others, and are not a part of this Code. To the extent any other policies and procedures of the Funds or Amundi US overlap or conflict with the provisions of the Code, they are superseded by this Code.

Scope of Responsibilities

A Senior Officer's responsibilities under this Code are limited to Fund matters over which the Senior Officer has direct responsibility or control, matters in which the Senior Officer routinely participates, and matters with which the Senior Officer is otherwise involved. In addition, a Senior Officer is responsible for matters of which the Senior Officer has actual knowledge.

<br> 5 Last revised January 2021

Amendments

This Code other than Exhibit A may not be amended except in a writing that is specifically approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees.

Confidentiality

All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly. Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the Board and their counsel, or to Amundi US' Legal and Compliance Department.

Internal Use

This Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Funds and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of any Fund, as to any fact, circumstance, or legal conclusion.
