**SUPPLEMENT TO CURRENT SUMMARY PROSPECTUS, PROSPECTUS AND STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION** 

The Board of Trustees of Federated Hermes Adviser Series has approved a change in non-fundamental investment policy for the Federated Hermes MDT Large Cap Value Fund (the "Fund") in connection with amendments adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") to Rule 35d-1 (the "Rule") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The change in policy will become effective concurrent with the effective date of the Fund's next registration statement, which is anticipated to be December 29, 2026, unless the SEC postpones, delays, reconsiders or repeals the amendments to the Rule in which case shareholders will be further notified (the "Effective Date"). The change in policy is not expected to result in any changes to the investment process used in managing the Fund and is being made to comply with the requirements of the amendments to the Rule.
