**SHAREHOLDERS' LETTER (unaudited)** 

**Investment Objective** 

The investment objective of the MetLife Core Plus Fund (the "Fund") is to seek to maximize capital appreciation and income.

**Review** 

The overweight to spread sectors and underweight allocation to US Treasuries detracted as credit spreads were volatile and widened out during the course of the 12-month period. Rates were also extremely volatile and the curve inverted. A slight underweight to duration and a flattening bias in the portfolio were modestly positive contributors to performance.

Overall, investment grade corporates led the bulk of underperformance with the driver being security selection within Industrials. The Energy, Tobacco, and Cable subsectors were all sources of challenged security selection. In Financials, subordinated holdings drove underperformance, in addition to those holdings in the Banking sector with European exposure. Generically, less liquid and underfollowed credits struggled in 2022, and a number of overweights fall into this category. An allocation to High Yield was also a detractor to performance, as the out-of-benchmark sector was under pressure amidst a turbulent macro environment.

Collateralized Mortgage-Backed Security ("CMBS") exposure was positive, driven by an overweight to Fixed Rate Non-Agency AAA rated paper. Floating Rate CMBS bonds partially offset relative returns. Asset-Backed Securities ("ABS") added to relative returns due to sector allocation. In a volatile year within fixed income markets, shorter high-quality sectors such as ABS outperformed nearly all other asset classes. Thus, our overweight to the sector aided performance. Collateralized Loan Obligations ("CLOs") modestly detracted from performance as index spreads widened and the credit curve steepened. The primary driver was the portfolio's allocation to AA CLOs. Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities ("RMBS") drove underperformance due to an overweight to 30-year, low coupon Conventionals in Specified Pools.

**Outlook** 

Looking ahead, it is hard to ignore the irrefutable truth that the Federal Reserve has one goal right now (and one goal only), and that is to temper inflation. To accomplish this will require more restrictive monetary policy and slower growth – which is not supportive of risk assets. To get the pendulum to shift to a more attractive environment for risk taking, the market will need to be able to better grasp both the timing of achieving peak inflation and the duration of the adjustment period necessary to return to the Fed's targeted level of inflation. Neither of those signposts seem imminent. Brief rallies in the market have generally been accompanied by murmurs of Fed easing. We believe these to be misguided. Fed speakers are going out of their way to emphasize that their job will not be done until inflation is tamed – and we believe them. To us, the inflation battle is the overarching risk factor in the market right now, but that is not to diminish the quantity or severity of the other risks present. The war in Ukraine, the European gas crisis, and COVID lockdowns in China are part of a myriad of "knowns" in the market. What is more troubling are the second, third, fourth derivative "unknowns". The recent UK pension fund crisis was a sobering reminder of the intertwined nature of markets, with collateral calls in the UK being met by selling of US credit (which is a much deeper market for the long duration

assets owned in these funds). It is hard enough to assess the value of credit amidst the known issues – but the likelihood of further knock-on effects is too high to not anticipate a further discount for spreads.

It is not all bad news for credit investors. Valuations are getting more attractive by the day. Investment grade corporates ended the quarter at +159 OAS – 67 basis points wider year-to-date. More eye-popping is the 5.69% yield of the Bloomberg US Corporate Index. That is 336 basis points higher on the year. The phrase "There is No Alternative" or "TINA" was in vogue for the last few years when there seemed to be no attractive alternative for equities. We are not creative enough to invent new acronyms, but we feel comfortable suggesting TINA can be retired for now because the alternatives are plentiful. If you wanted 4% yields at the start of 2022 you had to buy high yield. Now you can get 4% from T-Bills. The resetting of valuations in 2022 should ultimately provide some level of support for fixed income assets – though the buyer base is likely to shift. Yield hungry domestic buyers – both institutional (e.g., pension, insurance) and retail are likely to welcome the new paradigm of a higher rate environment, while foreign investors are pulling back. They are pulling back due to the rapidly changing economics of hedged yields which have made US corporates hedged back to their local currency increasingly unattractive. It is too early to decipher which flow dynamic is likely to win out – but there are likely to be periods of uneven transition to add to an already volatile environment.

As we evaluate current valuations, we are reticent to get too mesmerized by spreads and yields that we have not seen since the onset of COVID. Historically there has been no magic ceiling for spreads, but credit has been no stranger to visiting OAS levels in the low 200s during periods of elevated volatility and recession. We may not reach those levels this time around due to the health of consumer and corporate balance sheets, but we believe there is enough global uncertainty that a future moment of capitulation could ultimately propel spreads towards those levels.

This process could take some time. There has been a well-defined trend this year of wider wides and wider tights in credit spreads. We would expect this pattern to persist within a broader widening trend. We recognize the difficulty in picking the lows, and so we will use these backups to gradually add risk back to the portfolio. One area of the market we feel comfortable adding to right now is short-dated credit. Flatter rate and spread curves have created extremely attractive opportunities to allocate capital in a maturity window in which we believe we can get very comfortable with the trajectory of the balance sheet. We believe we can structure portfolios to continue to add some yield advantage to the portfolio (at the expense of cash and Treasuries) while still maintaining a generally conservative risk posture until valuations cheapen further. Away from these front-end opportunities, we are intensely focused on the fundamental outlooks for the credits in which we are invested, and their ability to generate attractive risk adjusted returns in the context of a recessionary environment. To the extent that we can identify better opportunities, we are going to reposition into those more resilient credits. We will also continue to be active in the new issue market. Primary issuance has slowed dramatically as many issuers are waiting for calmer conditions, but elevated volatility has resulted in elevated concessions that offers us an opportunity to allocate to liquid credit at attractive valuations. Liquidity is valuable in this market, and so any tactical trading opportunities will likely be concentrated in the primary market, whereas we recognize that relative value trades into less liquid curve points will take longer to monetize.

The "all clear" for credit remains just a dot in the distance, but we believe this to be an

environment where fundamental credit research will be critical to not only picking winners, but also avoiding the losers in what is likely to be a period of elevated volatility.

**Structured Products** 

In last quarter's update, we pointed out the Fed's desired balance sheet run-off regarding agency MBS was going to fall well short of the targeted $35 billion a month. That has raised the specter of possible asset sales to reach their desired objective. We continue to maintain that MBS sales are a very tenuous proposition, and that active selling of MBS may damage an already challenging liquidity environment, ultimately pressuring mortgage spreads and contributing to even high mortgage rates. With mortgage rates up over 3.50% this year, a dysfunctional mortgage market is not something the Fed can easily solve given the current inflationary environment. However, high interest rate volatility combined with a technical backdrop where banks and REITs are dealing with an inverted curve, duration extension, and book value losses, make it difficult to construct a picture that improves the outlook for agency MBS – especially one that doesn't involve more clarity into the Fed's ultimate end game.

Over most of the Covid related recovery in asset prices, we maintained an underweight to agency MBS, as spreads were artificially suppressed by the Fed's asset purchase program. Now that they have embarked on a passive quantitative tightening program, their support is no longer present and valuations are more compelling, making us much more constructive on spreads. Thus, we took advantage of the recent volatility to move to a modest overweight position. We continue to rotate out of TBA mortgages as roll specialness diminishes, and instead favor specified pools, a trend we expect to continue. We continue to focus on specified pools in lower coupons that have the propensity to pay faster than generic collateral, enhancing their yield profile. In higher coupons where negative convexity is more of a concern, our strategy it to buy call protection in the event interest rates fall, allowing portfolios to hold onto that high coupon for longer. With valuations as of this writing sitting on the cheaper side for the first time in years, we expect to move further overweight the basis. However, with volatility at extreme levels, we are operating under a regime where we are going to take what the market gives us in the quarter ahead.

The Non-Agency market has been especially hard hit by the sharp rise in interest rates during the year. While this is not a concern relative to credit quality, it points to the broader slowdown that is hitting the housing market. Underwriting has been strong during the run up in home prices, but with affordability stretched given high prices and high interest rates, we expect some modest stress to start to surface. Unlike the mid 2000's where ARMs with low teasers were all the rage, the majority of what is in new production Non-Agency pools are loans to high quality borrowers with substantial down payments. In addition, Covid-era home buyers/ refinancers locked in ultra-cheap fixed rate financing, providing them with the ability to weather an economic downturn and incenting them to continue to pay their mortgage debt provided their employment situation remains stable. Unemployment will be the key driver of housing market stress during this cycle. Non-Agency spreads remain volatile taking their que from the broader risk markets. The new issue non-QM market is still pricing to structures we do not prefer given the ongoing uncertainty in the rates market. We continue to be patient in the sub-sector looking for seasoned securities at discount dollar prices. In addition, our focus in the reperforming loan market is on discount securities where speeds are supported by the seasoned nature of the collateral. We are focused on the AAA portion of the capital structure within the sector.

We remain overweight CMBS and are comfortable with this positioning as the majority of this exposure is to shorter duration cashflows of seasoned deals; despite current headwinds much of the collateral properties within the deals have entrenched valuation improvements to allow for continued good performance and the ability to refinance. We favor bonds with stable cashflows such as front cash flow discount AAAs, which will not extend but are also protected from prepay risk due to their discount nature. We also are overweight AAA rated floating rate SASB and CRE CLO paper trading with spreads greater than 200. We find valuations attractive but also at the whim of increased secondary supply.

The ABS spread movements wider both this quarter and year to date have been immense. With these now wider spreads, we find several high-quality areas of ABS to be attractive, notably top of the credit stack paper within private student loans, subprime auto, equipment loans, and fleet lease auto paper. Tiering between issuers can be steep and we likely will invest primarily in first and second tier names to maintain liquidity as we enter a part of the year with likely diminished trading activity. We are avoiding unsecured consumer loans and subprime auto mezzanine bonds due to elevated credit risks.

In CLOs, we maintained our exposure throughout the quarter. Like other asset classes, spreads were volatile but ended the quarter off the wides. Higher coupons, because of the Fed's aggressive hiking campaign, have kept high quality CLO floaters supported. However, these rate hikes will start to weigh on levered loans as the cost of capital increases to the end borrower. Defaults are expected to climb, but off very low levels. Even if defaults were to rise unexpectedly, the portfolio's focus on the top of the capital structure (AAA/AA) will mitigate potential downgrade risks via robust credit enhancement and structural protections.

**High Yield** 

As fixed income spreads have continued to widen out, coupled with rising rates, there has been renewed value in the High Yield universe. HY yields are nearing the peaks of 2011 and 2016, on pace to reach levels last seen in 2009. The spread differential relative to US Investment Grade assets has continued to widen, offering opportunities with additional compensation for down in quality risk. HY fundamentals appear strong with net leverage decreasing off the peaks, therefore we are comfortable going out the curve from a credit risk perspective. However, with lingering recession concerns, we continue to prefer securities within the BB portion of the market as well as stable, less cyclical single-B issuers, to buffer against potential declining corporate fundamentals in a broad sell-off. Dispersion and inflationary pressures will be continued themes, so we will look to shorter duration holdings to limit the downside risk, as a higher yielding environment will compensate us through shorter breakevens amid increased dispersion.

**Emerging Markets** 

Macro uncertainty will continue to present challenges in the near term for Emerging Markets; however, as inflation peaks and interest rate volatility subsides, opportunities will likely arise in the space. We believe this current environment presents opportunities in the EM space, where yields on the indices are at levels not seen since 2009. Security selection has proven to be more important than ever in identifying issuers with strong fundamentals despite a sell-off due to market technicals. With EM corporates down 16% year-to-date and on track for the second worst year on record since the inception of the index, this weakness could drive performance over the next year horizon. EM Sovereigns, down 24% year-to-date, are also poised for strong

 **NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**1. Organization:** 

**The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund III** (the "Trust") is organized as a Delaware statutory trust under an Agreement and Declaration of Trust, dated December 4, 2013. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company with 65 funds. The financial statements herein are those of the MetLife Core Plus Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund is diversified and its investment objective is to seek to maximize capital appreciation and income. The Fund invests in a portfolio of investment grade, U.S. fixed income securities of any maturity or duration. The Fund also may invest up to 20% of its net assets in any combination of high yield bonds (also known as "junk bonds") and non-U.S. fixed income securities, including emerging market bonds. The financial statements of the remaining funds of the Trust are presented separately. The assets of each fund are segregated, and a shareholder's interest is limited to the fund in which shares are held.

**2. Significant Accounting Policies:** 

The following are significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Fund. The Fund is an investment company that applies the accounting and reporting guidance issued in Topic 946 by the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").

*Use of Estimates* — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.

*Security Valuation* — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on an exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 pm ET if a security's primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price. For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sales price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Such methodologies generally consider such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings and developments relating to specific securities in arriving at valuations. On the first day a new debt security purchase is recorded, if a price is not available on the automated pricing feeds from our primary and secondary pricing vendors nor is it available from an independent broker, the security may be valued at its purchase price. Each day thereafter, the debt security will be valued according to the Trust's fair value procedures until an independent source can be

secured. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value provided that it is determined the amortized cost continues to approximate fair value. Should existing credit, liquidity or interest rate conditions in the relevant markets and issuer specific circumstances suggest that amortized cost does not approximate fair value, then the amortized cost method may not be used.

Securities for which market prices are not "readily available" are required to be fair valued under the 1940 Act.

In December 2020, the SEC adopted Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, establishing requirements to determine fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. The rule permits fund boards to designate a fund's investment adviser to perform fair-value determinations, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions. The rule also defines when market quotations are "readily available" for purposes of the 1940 Act and requires a fund to fair value a portfolio investment when a market quotation is not readily available. The SEC also adopted new Rule 31a-4 under the 1940 Act, which sets forth recordkeeping requirements associated with fair-value determinations. The compliance date for Rule 2a-5 and Rule 31a-4 was September 8, 2022.

Effective September 8, 2022, and pursuant to the requirements of Rule 2a-5, the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") designated the Adviser as the Board's valuation designee to perform fair-value determinations for the Fund through a Fair Value Committee (the "Committee") established by the Adviser and approved new Adviser Fair Value Procedures for the Fund. Prior to September 8, 2022, fair-value determinations were performed in accordance with the Trust's Fair Value Procedures established by the Board and were implemented through a Fair Value Committee designated by the Board.

Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using fair value procedures include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time when under normal conditions it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government imposed restrictions. When a security is valued in accordance with the fair value procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee. As of October 31, 2022, there were no fair valued securities.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurement under U.S. GAAP, the Fund discloses fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

*37*

| **THE ADVISORS' INNER CIRCLE FUND III** | **MetLife Core Plus Fund**<br> **October 31, 2022**<br>|

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the
Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (includes quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates,
prepayment speeds, credit risk, referenced indices, quoted prices in inactive markets, adjusted quoted prices in inactive markets, etc.); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● Level 3 — Prices, inputs or exotic modeling techniques which are both significant to the fair value measurement
and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.

For details of the investment classifications, refer to the Schedule of Investments.

*Federal Income Taxes* — It is the Fund's intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements.

The Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether it is "more-likely-than-not" (i.e., greater than 50-percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current period. The Fund did not record any tax provision in the current period. However, management's conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., all open tax year ends, since inception), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

As of and during the year ended, the Fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year ended October 31, 2022, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

*Security Transactions and Investment Income* — Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividend income is recorded net of unrecoverable withholding tax. Interest income and expense is recorded on an accrual basis. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis from settlement date and includes the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discount. Realized gains (losses) on paydowns of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are recorded as an adjustment to interest income.

---

------

*Foreign Currency Translation* — The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. The Fund does not isolate that portion of realized or unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rate from fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of the securities. These gains and losses are included in net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments on the Statement of Operations. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from foreign currency exchange contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amount of the investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid.

*Expenses* — Expenses that are directly related to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are prorated to the funds based on the number of funds and/or relative net assets.

*Classes* — Class specific expenses are borne by that class of shares. Income, realized and unrealized gains (losses), and non-class specific expenses are allocated to the respective class on the basis of relative daily net assets.

*Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders* — The Fund will distribute its net investment income quarterly. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually. All distributions are recorded on ex-dividend date.

*Cash* — Idle cash may be swept into various money market sweep accounts and is classified as cash equivalents on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund maintains cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed United States federally insured limits. Amounts invested are available on the same business day.

*Futures Contracts* — To the extent consistent with its investment objective and strategies, the Fund uses futures contracts for tactical hedging purposes as well as to enhance the Fund's return. Initial margin deposits of cash or securities are made upon entering into futures contracts. Variation margin payments are paid or received, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. The cumulative appreciation (depreciation) of futures contracts is included on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts.

When the futures contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the amount invested in the futures contract. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of futures contracts are found on the Statement of Operations as a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures contracts and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts, respectively.

Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there will be an imperfect price correlation between the futures and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a position prior to its maturity date. Third, the futures contract involves the risk that the Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate

a futures transaction. Finally, the risk exists that losses could exceed amounts disclosed on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. As of October 31, 2022, the Fund did not hold any futures contracts.

**3. Transactions with Affiliates:** 

Certain officers of the Trust are also employees of SEI Investments Global Funds Services (the "Administrator"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI Investments Company, and/or SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor"). Such officers are paid no fees by the Trust, other than the Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO") as described below, for serving as officers of the Trust.

A portion of the services provided by the CCO and his staff, whom are employees of the Administrator, are paid for by the Trust as incurred. The services include regulatory oversight of the Trust's advisors and service providers, as required by SEC regulations. The CCO's services and fees have been approved by, and are reviewed by, the Board.

**4. Administration, Shareholder Servicing, Custodian and Transfer Agent Agreements:** 

The Fund and the Administrator are parties to an Administration Agreement under which the Administrator provides management and administrative services to the Fund. For these services, the Administrator is paid an asset-based fee, which will vary depending on the number of share classes and the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2022, the Fund paid $321,339 for these services.

The Fund has adopted a shareholder servicing plan that provides that the Fund may pay financial intermediaries for shareholder services in an annual amount not to exceed 0.25% based on the Fund's R Class Shares' average net assets. For the year ended October 31, 2022, the R Class Shares incurred no shareholder servicing fees.

The Trust and the Distributor are parties to a Distribution Agreement. The Distributor receives no fees under the Agreement.

Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. acts as custodian (the "Custodian") for the Fund. The Custodian plays no role in determining the investment policies of the Fund or which securities are to be purchased or sold by the Fund.

DST Systems, Inc. serves as the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust.

**5. Investment Advisory Agreement:** 

Under the terms of an investment advisory agreement, MetLife Investment Management, LLC, (the "Adviser") provides investment advisory services to the Fund at a fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to keep the total annual Fund operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses and extraordinary expenses (collectively, "excluded expenses")) from exceeding 0.45% of the Fund's I Class Shares' average daily net assets and 0.70% of the Fund's R Class Shares' average daily net assets until February 28, 2023. This Agreement may be terminated: (i) by the Board, for any reason at any time; or (ii) by the Adviser, upon ninety (90) days' prior written notice to the Trust,

effective as of the close of business on February 28, 2023. Refer to waiver of investment advisory fees on the Statement of Operations for fees waived for the year ended October 31, 2022. In addition, if at any point it becomes unnecessary for the Adviser to reduce fees or make expense reimbursements, the Adviser may retain the difference between the total annual operating expenses and the aforementioned expense limitations to recapture all or a portion of its prior expense limitation reimbursements made during the preceding three-year period. As of October 31, 2022, fees which were previously waived and/or reimbursed by the Adviser which may be subject to possible future reimbursement to the Adviser were $396,934, expiring in 2023, $552,680, expiring in 2024, and $549,837, expiring in 2025. The Adviser is a wholly owned subsidiary of MetLife, Inc., a publicly held company.

**6. Investment Transactions:** 

The cost of security purchases and the proceeds from security sales, other than short-term investments, for the year ended October 31, 2022, were as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | U.S.<br> Government | Other | Total |
|  Purchases | $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;984121799 | $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;88414148 | $&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1072535947 |
|  Sales | 932984773 | 90249669 | 1023234442 |

---

**7. Federal Tax Information:** 

The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. The permanent differences primarily consist of foreign currency translations, gains and losses on paydowns of mortgage and asset-backed securities for tax purposes, Perpetual Bond adjustment, and distribution reclassification. There are no permanent differences that are credited or charged to Paid-in Capital and Distributable Earnings as of October 31, 2022.

The tax character of dividends and distributions declared during the years ended October 31, were as follows:

---

For Federal income tax purposes, capital losses incurred may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. Such capital losses retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. During the year ended October 31, 2022, the Fund did not utilize capital loss carryforwards to offset capital gains.

For Federal income tax purposes the difference between Federal tax cost and book cost primarily relates to wash sales, which cannot be used for Federal income tax purposes in the current year and have been deferred for use in future years. The Federal tax cost and aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for the investments held by the Fund at October 31, 2022, were as follows:

**8. Other:** 

At October 31, 2022, 87% of I Class Shares total shares outstanding were held by three record shareholders and 100% of R Class Shares total shares outstanding were held by one record related party shareholder, owning 10% or greater of the aggregate total shares outstanding. These are comprised of omnibus accounts that are held on behalf of various individual shareholders.

**9. Concentration of Risks:** 

As with all mutual funds, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. You could lose money by investing in the Fund. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any government agency. The principal risks affecting shareholders' investments in the Fund are set forth below.

Credit Risk — The risk that the issuer of a security or the counterparty to a contract will default or otherwise become unable to honor a financial obligation. A decline in the credit rating of an individual security held by the Fund may have an adverse impact on its price. Rating agencies might not always change their credit rating on an issuer or security in a timely manner to reflect events that could affect the issuer's ability to make timely payments on its obligations.

Interest Rate Risk — The risk that the value of fixed income securities, including U.S. Government securities, will fall due to rising interest rates.

Liquidity Risk — Liquidity risk is the risk that certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price that the Fund would like. The Fund may have to accept a lower price to sell a security, sell other securities to raise cash, or give up an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Fund management or performance.

Market Risk — The risk that the market value of an investment may move up and down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Markets for securities in which the Fund invests may decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, economic or other developments that may cause broad changes in market value, public perceptions concerning these developments, and adverse investor sentiment or publicity. Similarly, the

---

------

impact of any epidemic, pandemic or natural disaster, or widespread fear that such events may occur, could negatively affect the global economy, as well as the economies of individual countries, the financial performance of individual companies and sectors, and the markets in general in significant and unforeseen ways. Any such impact could adversely affect the prices and liquidity of the securities and other instruments in which the Fund invests, which in turn could negatively impact the Fund's performance and cause losses on your investment in the Fund.

Issuer Risk — The risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer's goods or services.

Privately Issued Securities Risk — Investment in privately placed securities may be less liquid than in publicly traded securities. Although these securities may be resold in privately negotiated transactions, the prices realized from these sales could be less than those originally paid by the Fund or less than what may be considered the fair value of such securities. Further, companies whose securities are not publicly traded may not be subject to the disclosure and other investor protection requirements that might be applicable if their securities were publicly traded.

Unrated Securities Risk — Debt securities that are not rated by Moody's, S&P or Fitch may not have an active trading market or may be difficult to value, which means the Fund might have difficulty selling them promptly at an acceptable price.

Call Risk — The risk that an issuer may exercise its right to redeem a fixed income security earlier than expected (a call). If an issuer calls a security that the Fund has invested in, the Fund may not recoup the full amount of its initial investment and may be forced to reinvest in lower-yielding securities, securities with greater credit risks or securities with other, less favorable features.

Prepayment Risk — The risk that, with declining interest rates, fixed income securities with stated interest rates may have the principal paid earlier than expected. Such sooner-than-expected principal payments may reduce the returns of the Fund because of loss of expected future interest payments on the principal amount paid back early and requires the Fund to invest the proceeds at generally lower interest rates.

Extension Risk — The risk that rising interest rates may extend the duration of a fixed income security, typically reducing the security's value.

Asset-Backed Securities Risk — Payment of principal and interest on asset-backed securities is dependent largely on the cash flows generated by the assets backing the securities, and asset-backed securities may not have the benefit of any security interest in the related assets.

Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk — Mortgage-backed securities are affected by, among other things, interest rate changes and the possibility of prepayment of the underlying mortgage loans. Mortgage-backed securities are also subject to the risk that underlying borrowers will be unable to meet their obligations. TBA Transactions involve the additional risk that the value of the mortgage-backed securities to be purchased declines prior to settlement date or the counterparty does not deliver the securities as promised.

Derivatives Risk — The Fund's use of futures contracts, forward contracts and swaps is subject

| **THE ADVISORS' INNER CIRCLE FUND III** | **MetLife Core Plus Fund**<br> **October 31, 2022**<br>|

------

to market risk, leverage risk, correlation risk and liquidity risk. Market risk and liquidity risk are described elsewhere in this section. Leverage risk is the risk that the use of leverage may amplify the effects of market volatility on the Fund's share price and may also cause the Fund to liquidate portfolio positions when it would not be advantageous to do so in order to satisfy its obligations. Correlation risk is the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. The Fund's use of forward contracts and swaps is also subject to credit risk and valuation risk. Credit risk is described elsewhere in this section. Valuation risk is the risk that the derivative may be difficult to value and/or valued incorrectly. Each of these risks could cause the Fund to lose more than the principal amount invested in a derivative instrument.

Fixed Income Market Risk — The prices of the Fund's fixed income securities respond to regulatory and economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to perceptions about the creditworthiness of individual issuers, including governments and their agencies. In the case of foreign securities, price fluctuations will reflect international economic and political events, as well as changes in currency valuations relative to the U.S. dollar. Events in the fixed income markets may lead to periods of volatility, liquidity issues and, in some cases, credit downgrades and increased likelihood of default.

Hedging Risk — The Fund may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes. Hedging through the use of these instruments does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the securities that the Fund owns or intends to purchase or sell. While entering into these instruments tends to reduce the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged asset, such instruments also limit any potential gain that may result from the increase in value of the asset. There can be no assurance that any hedging strategy will be effective or that there will be a hedge in place at any given time.

Portfolio Turnover Risk — The Fund may buy and sell securities frequently. Such a strategy often involves higher expenses, including brokerage commissions, and may increase the amount of capital gains (in particular, short term gains) realized by the Fund. Shareholders may pay tax on such capital gains and will indirectly incur additional expenses related to a fund with a higher portfolio turnover rate.

High Yield Bond Risk — High yield, or "junk," bonds involve greater risks of default or downgrade and are more volatile than investment grade securities because the prospect for repayment of principal and interest of many of these securities is speculative. High-yield bonds also may be less liquid than higher quality investments.

Emerging Markets Securities Risk — Investments in emerging markets securities are considered speculative and subject to heightened risks in addition to the general risks of investing in foreign securities. Unlike more established markets, emerging markets may have governments that are less stable, markets that are less liquid and economies that are less developed. In addition, the securities markets of emerging market countries may consist of companies with smaller market capitalizations and may suffer periods of relative illiquidity; significant price volatility; restrictions on foreign investment; and possible restrictions on repatriation of investment income and capital. Furthermore, foreign investors may be required to register the proceeds of sales, and future economic or political crises could lead to price controls, forced mergers, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, seizure, nationalization or creation of government monopolies.

Foreign Company Risk — Investing in foreign companies poses additional risks since political

| **THE ADVISORS' INNER CIRCLE FUND III** | **MetLife Core Plus Fund**<br> **October 31, 2022**<br>|

------

and economic events unique to a country or region will affect those markets and their issuers. These risks will not necessarily affect the U.S. economy or similar issuers located in the U.S. Securities of foreign companies may not be registered with the SEC and foreign companies are generally not subject to the regulatory controls imposed on U.S. issuers and, as a consequence, there is generally less publically available information about foreign securities than is available about domestic securities. Income from foreign securities owned by the Fund may be reduced by a withholding tax at the source, which would reduce income received from the securities comprising the Fund's portfolio. Foreign securities may also be more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers.

Currency Risk — As a result of the Fund's investments in securities or other investments denominated in, and/or receiving revenues in, foreign currencies, the Fund will be subject to currency risk. Currency risk is the risk that foreign currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency hedged. In either event, the dollar value of an investment in the Fund would be adversely affected.

LIBOR Replacement Risk — The elimination of the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") may adversely affect the interest rates on, and value of, certain Fund investments for which the value is tied to LIBOR. The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority has announced that it intends to stop compelling or inducing banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. However, it remains unclear if LIBOR will continue to exist in its current, or a modified, form. Alternatives to LIBOR are established or in development in most major currencies, including the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), which is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR. Markets are slowly developing in response to these new rates. Questions around liquidity impacted by these rates, and how to appropriately adjust these rates at the time of transition, remain a concern for the Fund. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict the full impact of the transition away from LIBOR on the Fund until new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new products, instruments and contracts are commercially accepted.

The foregoing is not intended to be a complete discussion of the risks associated with investing in the Fund. A more complete description of risks associated with the Fund is included in the prospectus and statement of additional information.

**10. New Accounting Pronouncement:** 

In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform: Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The main objective of the new guidance is to provide relief to companies that will be impacted by the expected change in benchmark interest rates at the end of 2021, when participating banks will no longer be required to submit LIBOR quotes by the Financial Conduct Authority. The new guidance allows companies to, provided the only change to existing contracts are a change to an approved benchmark interest rate, account for modifications as a continuance of the existing contract without additional analysis. For new and existing contracts, the Fund may elect to apply the amendments as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is currently assessing the impact of the ASU's adoption to the Fund's financial statements and various filings.

**11. Indemnifications:** 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent

on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claim is considered remote.

**12. Subsequent Events:** 

The Fund has evaluated the need for additional disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no additional disclosures and/or adjustments were required to the financial statements.

<br> **REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**<br>

To the Shareholders of MetLife Core Plus Fund and the Board of Trustees of The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund III:

**Opinion on the Financial Statements and Financial Highlights** 

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of MetLife Core Plus Fund (the "Fund"), one of the funds constituting The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund III (the "Trust"), as of October 31, 2022, 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. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material aspects, the financial position of the Fund as of October 31, 2022, and 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 the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Basis for Opinion** 

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements and financial highlights 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 Fund 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its 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 Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, 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 and financial highlights. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Deloitte & Touche LLP

<br> **DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (unaudited)**<br>

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for fund management, administrative services, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.

Operating expenses such as these are deducted from the mutual fund's gross income and directly reduce your final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the mutual fund's average net assets; this percentage is known as the mutual fund's expense ratio.

The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period (May 1, 2022 to October 31, 2022).

The table on the next page illustrates your Fund's costs in two ways:

**Actual Fund Return**. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your Fund incurred over the period. The "Expenses Paid During Period" column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the "Ending Account Value" number is derived from deducting that expense cost from the Fund's gross investment return.

You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your ending starting account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under "Expenses Paid During Period."

**Hypothetical 5% Return.** This section helps you compare your Fund's costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund's comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the "Expenses Paid During Period" column with those that appear in the same charts in the shareholder reports for other mutual funds.

*(3)* "U.S. Government Interest" represents the amount of interest that was derived from direct U.S. Government obligations and distributed during the fiscal year. This amount is reflected as a percentage of ordinary income. Generally, interest from direct U.S. Government obligations is exempt from state income tax. However, for shareholders who are residents of California, Connecticut and New York, the statutory threshold requirements were not satisfied to permit exemption of these amounts from state income.

*(4)* The percentage in this column represents the amount of "Interest Related Dividends" and is reflected as a percentage of ordinary income distribution. Interest related dividends are exempt from U.S. withholding tax when paid to foreign investors.

*(5)* The percentage of this column represents the amount of "Short-Term Capital Gain Dividends" and is reflected as a percentage of short-term capital gain distribution that is exempt from U.S. withholding tax when paid to foreign investors.

The information reported herein may differ from the information and distributions taxable to the shareholder for the calendar year ending December 31, 2022. Complete information will be computed and reported with your 2022 Form 1099-DIV.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Audit fees include amounts related to the audit of the Trust's annual financial statements and services normally
provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Tax return preparation fees for affiliates of the Funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Non-audit fees consist of SSAE No. 18 report over investment management
activities and non-statutory audit reports of Legal & General Investment Management America, Inc.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Fees in connection with international withholding tax analysis.

(e)(1) The Trust's Audit Committee has adopted and the Board of Trustees has ratified an Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the "Policy"), which sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services proposed to be performed by the independent auditor of the Funds may be pre-approved.

The Policy provides that all requests or applications for proposed services to be provided by the independent auditor must be submitted to the Registrant's Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") and must include a detailed description of the services proposed to be rendered. The CFO will determine whether such services:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) require specific pre-approval;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee pursuant to the Policy; or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) have been previously pre-approved in connection with the independent auditor's annual engagement letter for the applicable year or otherwise. In any instance where services require pre-approval, the Audit Committee will consider whether such services are consistent with SEC's rules and whether the provision of such services would impair the auditor's independence.

Requests or applications to provide services that require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by the CFO. The Audit Committee will be informed by the CFO on a quarterly basis of all services rendered by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee has delegated specific pre-approval authority to either the Audit Committee Chair or financial expert, provided that the estimated fee for any such proposed pre-approved service does not exceed $100,000 and any pre-approval decisions are reported to the Audit Committee at its next regularly-scheduled meeting.

Services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee are identified and described in the Policy. In addition, the Policy sets forth a maximum fee per engagement with respect to each identified service that has received general pre-approval.

All services to be provided by the independent auditor shall be provided pursuant to a signed written engagement letter with the Registrant, the investment adviser, or applicable control affiliate (except that matters as to which an engagement letter would be impractical because of timing issues or because the matter is small may not be the subject of an engagement letter) that sets forth both the services to be provided by the independent auditor and the total fees to be paid to the independent auditor for those services.

In addition, the Audit Committee has determined to take additional measures on an annual basis to meet the Audit Committee's responsibility to oversee the work of the independent auditor and to assure the auditor's independence from the Registrant, such as (a) reviewing a formal written statement from the independent auditor delineating all relationships between the independent auditor and the Registrant, and (b) discussing with the independent auditor the independent auditor's methods and procedures for ensuring independence.

(e)(2) Percentage of fees billed applicable to non-audit services pursuant to waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows (PwC):

## Ex-99.Code

**<u>Policy Statement</u>:** Sarbanes-Oxley effected sweeping corporate disclosure and financial reporting reform on public companies, including mutual funds, to address corporate malfeasance and assure investors that the companies in which the investors invest are accurately and completely disclosing financial information. Under Sarbanes-Oxley, all public companies (including the Funds) must either have a code of ethics for their senior financial officers, or disclose why the company does not have a code of ethics. Sarbanes-Oxley was intended to foster corporate environments which encourage employees to question and report unethical and potentially illegal business practices.

Each Fund has chosen to adopt a code of ethics ("Code of Ethics for Financial Officers") to encourage the Fund's Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial, and Accounting Officer and Controller (the "Financial Officers") for the purpose of promoting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;● 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;● Full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that a registrant files
with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Funds.

**<u>Procedures</u>:** The Funds have adopted the following procedures regarding this matter:

A compliance officer is responsible for monitoring compliance with these procedures.

**FINANCIAL OFFICER CODE OF ETHICS** 

**I.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Introduction** 

The reputation and integrity of Series Trusts, (each a "Trust" and, collectively, the "Trusts") are valuable assets that are vital to the each Trust's success. The Trusts' senior financial officers ("SFOs") are responsible for conducting the Trusts' business in a manner that demonstrates a commitment to the highest standards of integrity. The Trusts' SFOs include the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer, comptroller or principal accounting officer, and any person who performs a similar function.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act") effected sweeping corporate disclosure and financial reporting reform on public companies, including mutual funds, to address corporate malfeasance and assure investors that the companies in which the investors invest are accurately and completely disclosing financial information. Under the Act, all public companies (including

------

the Trusts) must either have a code of ethics for their SFOs, or disclose why the company does not have a code of ethics. The Act was intended to foster corporate environments which encourage employees to question and report unethical and potentially illegal business practices. Each Trust has chosen to adopt this Financial Officer Code of Ethics (the "Code") to encourage the Trust's SFOs to act in a manner consistent with the highest principles of ethical conduct.

**II.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Purposes of the Code** 

The purposes of this Code are:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. To promote honest and ethical conduct by each Trust's SFOs, including the ethical handling of actual or
apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. To assist each Trust's SFOs in recognizing and avoiding conflicts of interest, including disclosing to
an appropriate person any material transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to such a conflict;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. To promote full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the
Trusts file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Trusts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. To promote compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. To encourage the prompt internal reporting to an appropriate person of violations of this Code; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. To establish accountability for adherence to this Code.

**III.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Questions about this Code** 

Each Trust's compliance officer designated to oversee compliance with the Trust's Code of Ethics adopted pursuant to Rule 17j-1 shall serve as Compliance Officer for the implementation and administration of this Code. You should direct your questions about this Code to the Compliance Officer.

**IV.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Conduct Guidelines** 

Each Trust has adopted the following guidelines under which the Trust's SFOs must perform their official duties and conduct the business affairs of the Trust.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. **Ethical and honest conduct is of paramount importance.** Each Trust's SFOs must act with honesty
and integrity and avoid violations of this Code, including the avoidance of actual or apparent conflicts of interest with the Trust in personal and professional relationships.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. **SFOs must disclose material transactions or relationships.** Each Trust's SFOs must disclose to
the Compliance Officer any actual or apparent conflicts of interest the SFO may have with the Trust that reasonably could be expected to give rise to any violations of this Code. Such conflicts of interest may arise as a result of material
transactions or business or personal relationships to which the SFO may be a party. If it is not possible to disclose the matter to the Compliance Officer, the matter should be disclosed to the

------

Trust's Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive Officer, or another appropriate person. In addition to disclosing any actual or apparent conflicts of interest in which an SFO is personally involved, the Trusts' SFOs have an obligation to report any other actual or apparent conflicts which the SFOs discover or of which the SFOs otherwise become aware. If you are unsure whether a particular fact pattern gives rise to a conflict of interest, or whether a particular transaction or relationship is "material," you should bring the matter to the attention of the Compliance Officer. <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. **Standards for quality of information shared with service providers of the Trusts.** Each Trust's
SFOs must at all times seek to provide information to the Trust's service providers (adviser, administrator, outside auditor, outside counsel, custodian, *etc.*) that is accurate, complete, objective, relevant, timely, and understandable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. **Standards for quality of information included in periodic reports.** Each Trust's SFOs must at all
times endeavor to ensure full, fair, timely, accurate, and understandable disclosure in the Trust's periodic reports.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. **Compliance with laws.** Each Trust's SFOs must comply with the federal securities laws and other
laws and rules applicable to the Trusts, such as the Internal Revenue Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. **Standard of care.** Each Trust's SFOs must at all times act in good faith and with due care,
competence, and diligence, without misrepresenting material facts or allowing your independent judgment to be subordinated. Each Trust's SFOs must conduct the affairs of the Trust in a responsible manner, consistent with this Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. **Confidentiality of information.** Each Trust's SFOs must respect and protect the confidentiality
of information acquired in the course of their professional duties, except when authorized by the Trust to disclose this information or where disclosure is otherwise legally mandated. You may not use confidential information acquired in the course
of your work for personal advantage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. **Sharing of information and educational standards.** Each Trust's SFOs should share information
with relevant parties to keep these parties informed of the business affairs of the Trust, as appropriate, and to maintain skills important and relevant to the Trust's needs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. **Promote ethical conduct.** Each Trust's SFOs at all times should proactively promote ethical
behavior among peers in the SFOs work environment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. **Standards for recordkeeping.** Each Trust's SFOs at all times must endeavor to ensure that the
Trust's financial books and records are thoroughly and accurately maintained to the best of the SFOs knowledge in a manner consistent with applicable laws and this Code.

**V.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Waivers of this Code** 

You may request a waiver of a provision of this Code by submitting your request in writing to the Compliance Officer for appropriate review. For example, if a family member works for a service provider that prepares a Trust's financial statements, you may have a potential conflict of interest in reviewing those statements and should seek a waiver of this Code to review the work. An executive officer of each Trust, or another appropriate person (such as a designated Board or Audit Committee member), will decide whether to grant a waiver. All waivers of this code must be disclosed to the applicable Trust's shareholders and the designated Board to the extent required by SEC rules.

------

**VI.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Affirmation of the Code** 

Upon adoption of the Code, each Trust's SFOs must affirm in writing that the SFO has received, has read, and understands the Code, and annually thereafter must affirm that they have complied with the requirements of the Code. To the extent necessary, each Trust's Compliance Officer will provide guidance on the conduct required by this Code and the manner in which violations or suspected violations must be reported and waivers must be requested.

**VII.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Reporting Violations** 

In the event that an SFO discovers or, in good faith, suspects a violation of this Code, the SFO <u>must</u> immediately report the violation or suspected violation to the Compliance Officer. The Compliance Officer, in his or her discretion, may consult with another member of the Trust's senior management or the Board in determining how to address the suspected violation. For example, a Code violation may occur when a periodic report or financial statement of a Trust omits a material fact, or is technically accurate but, in the view of the SFO, is written in a way that obscures the report's or financial statement's meaning.

SFOs who report violations or suspected violations in good faith will not be subject to retaliation of any kind. Reported violations will be investigated and addressed promptly and will be treated as confidential to the extent possible.

**VIII.** &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **Violations of the Code** 

Dishonest or unethical conduct or conduct that is illegal will constitute a violation of this Code, regardless of whether this Code specifically refers to such particular conduct. A violation of this Code may result in disciplinary action, up to and including removal as an SFO of the Trust. A variety of laws apply to the Trusts and their operations, including the Securities Act of 1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940, state laws relating to duties owed by Trust officers, and criminal laws. The Trusts will report any suspected criminal violations to the appropriate authorities, and will investigate, address, and report, as appropriate, non-criminal violations.
