Nomura VIP Core Equity Series — Service Class

(formerly, Macquarie VIP Core Equity Series)

April 30, 2026

Before you invest, you may want to review the Series' statutory prospectus (and any supplements thereto), which contains more information about the Series and its risks. You can find the Series' statutory prospectus and other information about the Series, including its statement of additional information and most recent reports to shareholders, online at nomuraassetmanagement.com/vip-literature. You can also get this information at no cost by calling 800 523-1918. The Series' statutory prospectus and statement of additional information, both dated April 30, 2026 (and any supplements thereto), are incorporated by reference into this summary prospectus.

**What is the** **Series' investment objective?**

Nomura VIP Core Equity Series seeks to provide capital growth and appreciation.

**What are the** **Series' fees and expenses?**

The following table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Series. The fee table and example do not reflect any fees or sales charges imposed by variable insurance contracts. If they did, the expenses would be higher.

**Annual** **series operating expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)**

|:---|:---|
| Class | Service |
| Management fees.............................................................................. | 0.70% |
| Distribution and service (12b-1) fees................................................................. | 0.25% |

| 1 | The Series' investment manager, Delaware Management Company (Manager), has contractually agreed to waive all or a portion of its investment advisory fees and/or pay/reimburse expenses (excluding any 12b-1 fees, acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, interest, short sale dividend and interest expenses, brokerage fees, certain insurance costs, and nonroutine expenses or costs, including, but not limited to, those relating to reorganizations, litigation, conducting shareholder meetings, and liquidations) in order to prevent total annual series operating expenses from exceeding 0.70% of the Series' average daily net assets from April 30, 2026 through April 29, 2027. These waivers and reimbursements may only be terminated by agreement of the Manager and the Series. |

**Example**

This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Series with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Series for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and reflects the Manager's expense waivers and reimbursements for the 1-year contractual period and the total operating expenses without waivers for years 2 through 10. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Class | Service |
| 1 year......................................................................................... | $97 |
| 3 years........................................................................................ | $313 |
| 5 years........................................................................................ | $548 |
| 10 years....................................................................................... | $1220 |

Summary prospectus<br>

------

**Portfolio turnover**

The Series pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Series shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in the annual series operating expenses or in the example, affect the Series' performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Series' portfolio turnover rate was 39% of the average value of its portfolio.

**What are the** **Series' principal investment strategies?**

Nomura VIP Core Equity Series seeks to achieve its objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities, primarily in common stocks of large-capitalization companies. The Series seeks to invest in companies that the Manager believes are high-quality, have sustainable competitive advantages accompanied by financial strength and earnings stability, and have leading positions in their industries. Large-capitalization companies typically are companies with market capitalizations of at least $10 billion at the time of acquisition. The Series invests in securities that have the potential for capital appreciation, or that the Manager expects to resist market decline. Although the Series primarily invests in securities issued by large-capitalization companies, it may invest in securities issued by companies of any size. The Series may invest in securities of companies across the valuation spectrum, including securities issued by growth and value companies.

The Manager believes that long-term earnings potential relative to market expectations is an important component for stock performance. The Manager balances a top-down (assessing the market environment) approach with a bottom-up (researching individual issuers) analysis when selecting securities for the Series, and seeks to exploit what it believes to be catalysts for multi-year earnings growth in companies that it believes have strong or strengthening competitive advantages. Earnings catalysts are diversified across both thematic and company-specific projections.

From a top-down perspective, the Manager seeks to identify current trends or themes which indicate specific industries that have the potential to experience multi-year growth. The Manager considers various thematic catalysts in its analysis, including major macro-economic and political forces, cyclical inflections, changes in consumer behavior and technology shifts. Once a trend or theme is identified, the Manager seeks to invest for the Series in what it believes are dominant companies that will benefit from these trends or themes; including companies that the Manager believes have long-term earnings potential that exceeds market expectations. Through its bottom-up stock selection, the Manager searches for companies for which it believes market expectations are too low with regard to the ability of the companies to grow their businesses.

In selecting securities for the Series, the Manager may consider whether a company has new products to introduce, has undergone cost restructuring or a management change, or has improved its execution, among other factors.

The Series typically holds a limited number of stocks (generally 40 to 50).

The Manager attempts to select securities that it believes have growth possibilities by looking at many factors, which may include a company's: projected long-term earnings power compared to market expectations over a multi-year horizon, competitive position in the global economy, history of improving sales and profits, management strength, environmental. social and governance (ESG) characteristics, established brand, leadership position in its industry, stock price value, potential earnings catalyst, dividend payment history, anticipated future dividend yield, and prospects for capital return in the form of dividends and stock buybacks.

Many of the companies in which the Series may invest have diverse operations, with products or services in foreign markets. Therefore, the Series may have indirect exposure to various foreign markets through investments in these companies, even if the Series is not invested directly in such markets.

Generally, in determining whether to sell a security, the Manager uses the same type of analysis that it uses in buying securities. Among other factors, the Manager considers whether, in its opinion, the security has fully appreciated according to the Manager's forecast, has ceased to offer the prospect of significant growth potential, has had its competitive barriers diminished, has seen its earnings catalyst lose its impact, or has performed below the Manager's expectations regarding the company's long-term earnings potential. The Manager also may sell a security to reduce the Series' holding in that security, if that issuer's competitive advantage has diminished or if the Series' portfolio manager loses conviction in a previously identified trend or theme, to take advantage of what it believes are more attractive investment opportunities or to raise cash.

**What are the principal risks of investing in the** **Series?**

Investing in any mutual fund involves the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest. Over time, the value of your investment in the Series will increase and decrease according to changes in the value of the securities in the Series' portfolio. An investment in the Series may not be appropriate for all investors. The Series' principal risks include:

**Market risk** — The risk that all or a majority of the securities in a certain market — such as the stock or bond market — will decline in value because of factors such as adverse political or economic conditions, future expectations, investor confidence, or heavy institutional selling.

2<br>

------

**Large-capitalization company risk** — Large-capitalization companies tend to be less volatile than companies with smaller market capitalizations. This potentially lower risk means that the Series' share price may not rise as much as the share prices of funds that focus on smaller-capitalization companies.

**Growth stock risk** — Growth stocks reflect projections of future earnings and revenue. These prices may rise or fall dramatically depending on whether those projections are met. These companies' stock prices may be more volatile, particularly over the short term.

**Value stock risk** — The risk that the value of a security believed by the Manager to be undervalued may never reach what is believed to be its full value; such security's value may decrease or such security may be appropriately priced. Value stocks are stocks of companies that may have experienced adverse business or industry developments or may be subject to special risks that have caused the stocks to be out of favor and, in the opinion of the Manager, undervalued.

**Industry and sector risk** — The risk that the value of securities in a particular industry or sector (such as information technology) will decline because of changing expectations for the performance of that industry or sector.

**Information technology sector risk** — The risk that investment risks associated with investing in the information technology sector, in addition to other risks, include the intense competition to which information technology companies may be subject; the dramatic and often unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for qualified personnel among information technology companies; effects on profitability from being heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights and the loss or impairment of those rights; obsolescence of existing technology; general economic conditions; and government regulation.

**Foreign risk** — The risk that investments in foreign securities (particularly those of issuers in emerging markets) may be adversely affected by political instability, changes in currency exchange rates, inefficient markets and higher transaction costs, foreign economic conditions, the imposition of economic or trade sanctions, or inadequate or different regulatory and accounting standards.

**Limited number of securities risk** — The possibility that a single security's increase or decrease in value may have a greater impact on a series' value and total return because the series may hold larger positions in fewer securities than other series. In addition, a series that holds a limited number of securities may be more volatile than those series that hold a greater number of securities.

**Liquidity risk** — The possibility that investments cannot be readily sold within seven calendar days at approximately the price at which a series has valued them.

**Redemption risk** — If investors redeem more shares of a series than are purchased for an extended period of time, a series may be required to sell securities without regard to the investment merits of such actions. This could decrease a series' asset base, potentially resulting in a higher expense ratio.

**Active management and selection risk** — The risk that the securities selected by a series' management will underperform the markets, the relevant indices, or the securities selected by other funds with similar investment objectives and investment strategies. The securities and sectors selected may vary from the securities and sectors included in the relevant index.

**How has** **Nomura VIP Core Equity Series performed?**

The bar chart and table below provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Series. The bar chart shows changes in the Series' performance from year to year and the table shows how the Series' average annual total returns for the 1-, 5-, and 10-year periods compare with those of a broad measure of market performance. The Series' past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Series will perform in the future. The returns reflect any expense caps in effect during these periods. The returns would be lower without the expense caps.

On April 30, 2021, Delaware Management Company became the Series' investment manager. The returns shown from before April 30, 2021 are from the Series' prior investment manager.

You may obtain the Series' most recently available month-end performance by calling 800 523-1918 or by visiting our website at nomuraassetmanagement.com/vip-performance.

Performance reflects all Series expenses but does not include any fees or sales charges imposed by variable insurance contracts. If they had been included, the returns shown below would be lower. Investors should consult the variable contract prospectus for more information.

---

Employees of the Manager's affiliates outside the US participate in the management of certain funds as "associated persons" of the Manager under the Manager's oversight, in accordance with SEC guidance as to "participating affiliate" arrangements. These associated persons may, on behalf of the Manager, provide discretionary investment management services, trading, research and related services directly or indirectly to the Series.

**Purchase and redemption of** **Series shares**

Shares are sold, directly or indirectly, to separate accounts of life insurance companies at net asset value (NAV). Please refer to the variable annuity or variable life insurance product contract prospectus for more information about the purchase and redemption of shares.

**Tax information**

The dividends and distributions paid from the Series to the insurance company separate accounts will consist of ordinary income, capital gains, or some combination of both. Because shares of the Series must be purchased through separate accounts used to fund variable annuity contracts or variable life insurance contracts (variable contracts), such dividends and distributions will be exempt from current taxation by contract holders if left to accumulate within a separate account. You should refer to your variable contract prospectus for more information on these tax consequences.

**Payments to broker/dealers and other financial intermediaries**

If you purchase shares of the Series through a broker/dealer or other financial intermediary (such as an insurance company), the Series and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Series shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker/dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Series over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
