Russell

Investment

Funds

(the

"Investment

Company"

or

"RIF")

is

a

series

investment

company

with

nine

different

investment

portfolios

referred

to

as

funds.

These

financial

statements

report

on

five

of

these

funds

(each

a

"Fund"

and

collectively

the

"Funds").

The

Investment

Company

provides

the

investment

base

for

one

or

more

variable

insurance

products

issued

by

one

or

more

insurance

companies.

These

Funds

are

offered

at

net

asset

value

("NAV")

to

qualified

insurance

company

separate

accounts

offering

variable

insurance

products.

The

Investment

Company

is

registered

under

the

Investment

Company

Act

of

1940,

as

amended

("Investment

Company

Act"),

as

an

open-end

management

investment

company.

It

is

organized

and

operated

as

a

Massachusetts

business

trust

under

a

Third

Amended

and

Restated

Master

Trust

Agreement

dated

December

7,

2020,

as

amended

("Master

Trust

Agreement"),

and

the

provisions

of

Massachusetts

law

governing

the

operation

of

a

Massachusetts

business

trust.

The

Investment

Company's

Master

Trust

Agreement

permits

the

Board

of

Trustees

(the

"Board")

to

issue

an

unlimited

number

of

shares

of

beneficial

interest.

Each

of

the

Funds

is

diversified.

Under

the

Investment

Company

Act,

a

diversified

company

is

defined

as

a

management

company

which

meets

the

following

requirements:

at

least

75%

of

the

value

of

its

total

assets

is

represented

by

cash

and

cash

equivalents

(including

receivables),

government

securities,

securities

of

other

investment

companies,

and

other

securities

for

the

purposes

of

this

calculation

limited

in

respect

of

any

one

issuer

to

an

amount

not

greater

in

value

than

five

percent

of

the

value

of

the

total

assets

of

such

management

company

and

to

not

more

than

10%

of

the

outstanding

voting

securities

of

such

issuer.

Unless

otherwise

specified,

"period"

(as

used

within

the

financial

statements)

refers

to

the

six

months

ended

June

30,

2025. 2. #### Significant

#### Accounting

#### Policies
The

Funds'

financial

statements

are

prepared

in

accordance

with

U.S.

generally

accepted

accounting

principles

("U.S.

GAAP")

which

require

the

use

of

management

estimates

and

assumptions

at

the

date

of

the

financial

statements.

Actual

results

could

differ

from

those

estimates.

The

Funds

are

considered

investment

companies

under

U.S.

GAAP

and

follow

the

accounting

and

reporting

guidance

applicable

to

investment

companies.

The

following

is

a

summary

of

the

significant

accounting

policies

consistently

followed

by

each

Fund

in

the

preparation

of

its

financial

statements.

Segment

Reporting

Topic

defines

an

operating

segment

as

a

component

of

a

public

entity

that

engages

in

business

activities

from

which

it

may

recognize

revenues

and

incur

expenses

and

has

operating

results

that

are

regularly

reviewed

by

its

chief

operating

decision

maker

("CODM")

to

assess

performance

and

make

resource

allocation

decisions.

The

Funds'

adviser,

Russell

Investment

Management,

LLC

("RIM"),

serves

as

the

CODM.

Since

RIM

evaluates

each

Fund

holistically,

each

Fund

is

a

single

reporting

segment.

RIM

uses

total

returns,

Fund

expense

information,

and

share

transactions

presented

in

the

Funds'

financial

statements

to

assess

the

single

segment

performance

and

make

decisions.

The

accounting

policies

of

the

segment

are

the

same

as

those

described

in

this

"Significant

Accounting

Policies"

note.

Segment

assets

and

significant

expenses

are

reflected

in

each

Funds'

Statement

of

Assets

and

Liabilities

and

Statement

of

Operations,

respectively.

Recent

Accounting

Pronouncements

In

December

2023,

the

FASB

issued

Accounting

Standards

Update

("ASU"),

ASU

2023-09,

Improvements

to

Income

Tax

Disclosures,

which

amends

quantitative

and

qualitative

income

tax

disclosure

requirements

to

increase

disclosure

consistency,

bifurcate

income

tax

information

by

jurisdiction

and

remove

information

that

is

no

longer

beneficial.

The

ASU

is

effective

for

annual

periods

beginning

after

December

15,

2024,

and

early

adoption

is

permitted.

At

this

time,

management

is

evaluating

the

implications

of

these

changes

on

the

financial

statements.

Security

Valuation

The

Funds

value

portfolio

instruments

according

to

securities

valuation

procedures,

which

include

market

value

procedures,

fair

value

procedures,

other

key

valuation

procedures

and

a

description

of

the

pricing

sources

and

services

used

by

the

Funds.

With

respect

to

a

Fund's

investments

that

do

not

have

readily

available

market

quotations,

the

Board

has

designated

RIM,

the

Funds'

adviser,

as

the

valuation

designee

to

perform

fair

valuations

pursuant

to

Rule

2a-5

under

the

Investment

Company

Act.

However,

the

Board

retains

oversight

over

the

valuation

process.

U.S.

GAAP

defines

fair

value

as

the

price

that

a

Fund

would

receive

to

sell

an

asset

or

pay

to

transfer

a

liability

in

an

orderly

transaction

between

market

participants

at

the

measurement

date.

It

establishes

a

fair

value

hierarchy

that

prioritizes

inputs

to

valuation

methods,

requires

a

separate

disclosure

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

for

each

major

category

of

assets

and

liabilities,

and

segregates

fair

value

measurements

into

levels

(Level

1,

2,

and

3).

The

inputs

used

for

valuing

securities

are

necessarily

an

indication

of

the

risk

associated

with

investing

in

those

securities.

Levels

1,

and

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

are

defined

as

follows:

Level

—

Quoted

prices

(unadjusted)

in

active

markets

or

exchanges

for

identical

assets

and

liabilities.

Level

—

Inputs

other

than

quoted

prices

included

within

Level

that

are

observable,

which

may

include,

but

are

not

limited

to,

quoted

prices

for

similar

assets

or

liabilities

in

markets

that

are

active,

quoted

prices

for

identical

or

similar

assets

or

liabilities

in

markets

that

are

not

active,

and

inputs

such

as

interest

rates,

yield

curves,

implied

volatilities,

credit

spreads

or

other

market

corroborated

inputs.

Level

—

Significant

unobservable

inputs

based

on

the

best

information

available

in

the

circumstances,

to

the

extent

observable

inputs

are

not

available,

which

may

include

assumptions

made

by

RIM,

that

are

used

in

determining

the

fair

value

of

investments.

The

availability

of

observable

inputs

can

vary

from

security

to

security

and

is

affected

by

a

wide

variety

of

factors,

including,

for

example,

the

type

of

security,

whether

the

security

is

new

and

not

yet

established

in

the

marketplace,

the

liquidity

of

markets,

and

other

characteristics

particular

to

the

security.

To

the

extent

that

valuation

is

based

on

models

or

inputs

that

are

less

observable

or

unobservable

in

the

market,

the

determination

of

fair

value

requires

more

judgment.

Accordingly,

the

degree

of

judgment

exercised

in

determining

fair

value

is

greatest

for

instruments

categorized

in

Level

3. The

inputs

used

to

measure

fair

value

may

fall

into

different

levels

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

In

such

cases,

for

disclosure

purposes,

the

level

in

the

fair

value

hierarchy

within

which

the

fair

value

measurement

falls

is

determined

based

on

the

lowest

level

input

that

is

significant

to

the

fair

value

measurement

in

its

entirety.

The

valuation

techniques

and

significant

inputs

used

in

determining

the

fair

market

values

of

financial

instruments

categorized

as

Level

and

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

are

as

follows:

Equity

securities,

including

common

and

preferred

stock,

short

securities,

ETFs

and

restricted

securities

that

are

traded

on

a

national

securities

exchange

(or

reported

on

the

NASDAQ

national

market),

are

stated

at

the

last

reported

sales

price

on

the

day

of

valuation

or

official

closing

price,

as

applicable.

To

the

extent

these

securities

are

actively

traded,

and

valuation

adjustments

are

not

applied,

they

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Preferred

stock

and

other

equities

traded

on

inactive

markets

or

valued

by

reference

to

similar

instruments

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Certain

foreign

equity

securities

may

be

fair

valued

using

a

pricing

service

that

considers

the

correlation

of

the

trading

patterns

of

the

foreign

security

to

the

intraday

trading

in

the

U.S.

markets

for

investments

such

as

American

Depositary

Receipts,

financial

futures,

exchange-traded

funds,

and

the

movement

of

certain

indexes

of

securities,

based

on

the

statistical

analysis

of

historical

relationships.

Foreign

equity

securities

prices

as

described

above

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Fixed

income

securities

including

corporate,

convertible,

U.S.

government

agency,

municipal

bonds

and

notes,

U.S.

treasury

obligations,

sovereign

issues,

bank

loans,

bank

notes

and

non-U.S.

bonds

are

normally

valued

by

pricing

service

providers

that

use

broker-dealer

quotations

or

valuation

estimates

from

their

internal

pricing

models.

The

pricing

service

providers'

internal

models

use

inputs

that

are

observable

such

as

issuer

details,

interest

rates,

yield

curves,

prepayment

speeds,

credit

risks/spreads

and

default

rates.

Such

fixed

income

securities

that

use

pricing

service

internal

models

as

described

above

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Such

fixed

income

securities

that

use

broker-dealer

quotations

are

categorized

as

Fixed

income

securities

purchased

on

a

delayed-delivery

basis

and

marked-to-market

daily

until

settlement

at

the

forward

settlement

date

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Mortgage

and

asset-backed

securities

are

usually

issued

as

separate

tranches,

or

classes,

of

securities

within

each

deal.

These

securities

are

also

normally

valued

by

pricing

service

providers

that

use

broker-dealer

quotations

or

valuation

estimates

from

their

internal

pricing

models.

The

pricing

models

for

these

securities

usually

consider

tranche-level

attributes,

including

estimated

cash

flows

of

each

tranche,

market-based

yield

spreads

for

each

tranche,

and

current

market

data,

as

well

as

incorporate

deal

collateral

performance,

as

available.

Mortgage

and

asset-backed

securities

that

use

these

and

similar

valuation

techniques

and

inputs

as

described

above

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Investments

in

investment

funds

that

are

not

traded

on

a

national

securities

exchange

(or

reported

on

the

NASDAQ

market)

will

based

upon

the

Short-term

investments

having

a

maturity

of

or

less

are

generally

Derivative

instruments

are

instruments

such

as

foreign

currency

exchange

contracts,

futures

contracts,

options

contracts,

or

swap

agreements

that

derive

their

value

from

underlying

asset

prices,

indices,

reference

rates,

and

other

inputs

or

a

combination

of

these

factors.

Derivatives

may

be

classified

into

two

groups

depending

upon

the

way

that

they

are

traded:

privately

traded

over-the-counter

("OTC")

derivatives

that

do

not

go

through

an

exchange

or

intermediary

and

exchange-traded

derivatives

that

are

traded

through

specialized

derivatives

exchanges

or

other

regulated

exchanges.

OTC

derivatives

are

normally

valued

on

the

basis

of

broker-dealer

quotations

or

pricing

service

providers.

Depending

on

the

product

and

the

terms

of

the

transaction,

the

value

of

the

derivative

instrument

can

be

estimated

by

a

pricing

service

provider

using

a

series

of

techniques,

including

simulation

pricing

models.

The

pricing

models

use

inputs

that

are

observed

from

actively

quoted

markets

such

as

issuer

details,

indices,

spreads,

interest

rates,

yield

curves,

dividends

and

exchange

rates.

OTC

derivatives

that

use

these

and

similar

valuation

techniques

and

inputs

as

described

above

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy,

with

the

exception

of

foreign

currency

spot

contracts

which

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

OTC

derivatives

that

use

broker-dealer

quotations

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Exchange-traded

derivatives

are

valued

based

on

the

last

reported

sales

price

on

the

day

of

valuation

and

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Centrally

cleared

swaps

listed

or

traded

on

a

multilateral

or

trade

facility

platform,

such

as

a

registered

exchange,

are

valued

at

the

daily

settlement

price

determined

by

the

respective

exchange.

For

centrally

cleared

credit

default

swaps,

the

clearing

facility

requires

its

members

to

provide

actionable

levels

across

complete

term

structures.

These

levels

along

with

external

third-party

prices

are

used

to

produce

daily

settlement

prices.

These

securities

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Centrally

cleared

interest

rate

swaps

are

valued

using

a

pricing

model

that

references

the

underlying

rates

including

the

Overnight

Index

Swap

("OIS")

rate

and

Secured

Overnight

Financing

Rate

("SOFR")

forward

rate

to

produce

the

are

categorized

as

Events

or

circumstances

affecting

the

values

of

instruments

that

occur

between

the

closing

of

the

principal

markets

on

which

they

trade

and

the

time

the

NAV

of

Fund

shares

is

determined

may

be

reflected

in

the

calculation

of

NAV

for

each

applicable

Fund

when

the

Fund

deems

that

the

particular

event

or

circumstance

would

materially

affect

such

Fund's

NAV.

Funds

that

invest

primarily

in

frequently

traded

exchange-listed

securities

will

use

fair

value

pricing

in

limited

circumstances

since

reliable

market

quotations

will

often

be

readily

available.

Funds

that

invest

in

foreign

securities

use

fair

value

pricing

more

often

(typically

daily)

since

significant

events

may

occur

between

the

close

of

foreign

markets

and

the

time

of

pricing

of

the

foreign

securities.

Although

there

are

observable

inputs

assigned

on

a

security

level,

prices

are

derived

from

factors

using

proprietary

models

or

matrix

pricing.

For

this

reason,

fair

value

factors

will

cause

movement

between

Levels

and

2. Examples

of

significant

events

that

generally

trigger

fair

value

pricing

of

one

or

more

securities

are:

any

market

movement

of

the

U.S.

securities

market

(defined

in

the

fair

value

procedures

as

the

movement

of

a

single

major

U.S.

index);

a

company

development

such

as

a

material

business

development;

a

natural

disaster,

a

public

health

emergency

affecting

one

or

more

countries

in

the

global

economy

(including

an

emergency

which

results

in

the

closure

of

financial

markets)

or

other

emergency

situation;

or

an

armed

conflict.

The

NAV

of

a

Fund's

portfolio

that

includes

foreign

securities

may

change

on

days

when

shareholders

will

not

be

able

to

purchase

or

redeem

Fund

shares,

since

foreign

securities

can

trade

on

non-business

days.

Level

Fair

Value

Investments

The

valuation

techniques

and

significant

inputs

used

in

determining

the

fair

values

of

financial

instruments

classified

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

are

as

follows:

Securities

and

other

assets

for

which

market

quotes

or

pricing

service

prices

are

not

readily

available,

or

are

not

reliable,

are

valued

at

fair

value

as

determined

in

good

faith

by

RIM

and

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Market

quotes

are

considered

not

readily

available

in

circumstances

where

there

is

an

absence

of

current

or

reliable

market-based

data

(e.g.,

trade

information

or

broker

quotes).

When

RIM

applies

fair

valuation

methods

that

use

significant

unobservable

inputs

to

determine

a

Fund's

NAV,

securities

will

not

be

priced

on

the

basis

of

quotes

from

the

primary

market

in

which

they

are

traded,

but

instead

may

be

priced

by

another

method

that

RIM

believes

accurately

reflects

fair

value

and

will

be

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Fair

value

pricing

may

require

subjective

determinations

about

the

value

of

a

security.

securities

valuation

procedures

are

intended

to

result

in

a

calculation

of

a

Fund's

NAV

that

fairly

reflects

security

values

as

of

the

time

of

the

process

cannot

guarantee

that

fair

values

determined

by

RIM

would

accurately

reflect

the

price

that

a

Fund

could

obtain

for

a

security

if

it

were

to

dispose

of

that

security

as

of

the

time

of

pricing

(for

instance,

in

a

forced

or

distressed

sale).

The

prices

used

by

a

Fund

may

differ

from

the

value

that

would

be

realized

if

the

security

was

sold.

RIM

employs

third-party

pricing

vendors

to

provide

fair

value

measurements.

RIM

oversees

third-party

pricing

service

providers

in

order

to

support

the

valuation

process.

The

significant

unobservable

input

used

in

fair

value

measurement

of

certain

of

the

Funds'

preferred

equity

securities

is

the

redemption

value

calculated

on

a

fully-diluted

basis

if

converted

to

common

stock.

Significant

increases

or

decreases

in

the

redemption

value

would

have

a

direct

and

proportional

impact

to

fair

value.

The

significant

unobservable

inputs

used

in

fair

value

measurement

of

certain

of

the

Funds'

private

equity

securities

include

market

data

of

comparable

public

companies,

discount

rates,

EBITDA

multiples,

and

future

projected

cash

flows

for

the

portfolio

company.

These

inputs

are

utilized

in

valuation

models

that

are

based

on

market

analysis

and

discounted

cash

flow

methodologies.

Increases

(decreases)

in

the

discount

rates

would

result

in

a

lower

(higher)

fair

value

measurement,

while

increases

(decreases)

in

EBITDA

multiples

and

projected

cash

flows

would

result

in

a

higher

(lower)

fair

value

measurement.

The

significant

unobservable

input

used

in

the

fair

value

measurement

of

certain

Funds'

debt

securities

is

the

yield

to

worst

ratio.

Significant

increases

(decreases)

in

the

yield

to

worst

ratio

would

result

in

a

lower

(higher)

fair

value

measurement.

These

significant

unobservable

inputs

are

further

disclosed

in

the

Presentation

of

Portfolio

Holdings

for

each

respective

Fund

as

applicable.

If

third-party

evaluated

vendor

pricing

is

neither

available

nor

deemed

to

be

indicative

of

fair

value,

RIM

may

elect

to

obtain

indicative

market

quotations

("broker

quotes")

directly

from

the

broker

or

passed

through

from

a

third-party

vendor.

In

the

event

that

the

source

of

fair

value

is

from

a

single

source

broker

quote,

these

securities

are

classified

as

Level

per

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Broker

quotes

are

typically

received

from

established

market

participants.

Although

independently

received

on

a

daily

basis,

RIM

does

not

have

the

transparency

to

view

the

underlying

inputs

which

support

the

broker

quotes.

Significant

changes

in

the

broker

quote

would

have

direct

and

proportional

changes

in

the

fair

value

of

the

security.

There

is

a

third-party

pricing

exception

to

the

quantitative

disclosure

requirement

when

prices

are

not

determined

by

the

reporting

entity.

RIM

is

exercising

this

exception

and

has

made

a

reasonable

attempt

to

obtain

quantitative

information

from

the

third-party

pricing

vendors

regarding

the

unobservable

inputs

used.

For

fair

valuations

using

significant

unobservable

inputs,

U.S.

GAAP

requires

a

reconciliation

of

the

beginning

to

ending

balances

for

reported

fair

values

that

present

changes

attributable

to

total

realized

a

fair

and

an

additional

Federal

Income

Taxes

Since

the

Investment

Company

is

a

Massachusetts

business

trust,

each

Fund

is

a

separate

corporate

taxpayer

and

determines

its

net

investment

income

and

capital

gains

(or

losses)

and

the

amounts

to

be

distributed

to

each

Fund's

shareholders

without

regard

to

the

income

and

capital

gains

(or

losses)

of

the

other

Funds.

Each

Fund

intends

to

qualify

or

continue

to

qualify

as

a

regulated

investment

company

under

Subchapter

M

of

the

Internal

Revenue

Code

of

1986,

as

amended

(the

"Code"),

and

intends

to

distribute

all

of

its

taxable

income

and

capital

gains.

Therefore,

no

federal

income

tax

provision

is

required

for

the

Funds.

The

Funds

comply

with

the

authoritative

guidance

for

uncertainty

in

income

taxes

which

requires

management

to

determine

whether

a

tax

position

of

the

Funds

is

more

likely

than

not

to

be

sustained

upon

examination,

including

resolution

of

any

related

appeals

or

litigation

processes,

based

on

the

technical

merits

of

the

position.

For

tax

positions

meeting

the

more

likely

than

not

threshold,

the

tax

amount

recognized

in

the

financial

statements

is

reduced

by

the

largest

benefit

that

has

a

greater

than

50%

likelihood

of

being

realized

upon

ultimate

settlement

with

the

relevant

taxing

authority.

Management

determined

that

no

accruals

need

to

be

made

in

the

financial

statements

due

to

uncertain

tax

positions.

Management

continually

reviews

and

adjusts

the

Funds'

liability

for

income

taxes

based

on

analyses

of

tax

laws

and

regulations,

as

well

as

their

interpretations,

and

other

relevant

factors.

Each

Fund

files

a

U.S.

tax

return.

As

of

June

30,

2025,

the

Funds

had

recorded

no

liabilities

for

net

unrecognized

tax

benefits

relating

to

uncertain

income

tax

positions

they

have

taken

or

expect

to

take

in

future

tax

returns.

While

the

statute

of

limitations

remains

open

to

examine

the

Funds'

U.S.

tax

returns

filed

for

the

fiscal

years

ended

December

31,

2021

through

December

31,

2023,

no

examinations

are

in

progress

or

anticipated

at

this

time.

The

Funds

are

not

aware

of

any

tax

positions

for

which

it

is

reasonably

possible

that

the

total

amounts

of

unrecognized

tax

benefits

will

significantly

change

in

the

next

twelve

months.

Dividends

and

Distributions

to

Shareholders

For

all

Funds,

income,

capital

gain

distributions

and

return

of

capital,

if

any,

are

recorded

on

the

ex-dividend

date.

Income

distributions

are

generally

declared

and

paid

according

to

the

following

schedule:

The

Funds

intend

to

distribute

substantially

all

of

the

distributions

they

receive

from

real

estate

investment

trust

("REIT")

investments,

less

expenses,

as

well

as

income

from

other

investments.

Such

distributions

may

be

comprised

of

income,

return

of

capital,

and

capital

gains.

The

Funds

may

also

realize

capital

gains

on

the

sale

of

REIT

shares

and

other

investments.

Capital

gain

distributions

are

generally

declared

and

paid

annually.

An

additional

distribution

may

be

paid

by

the

Funds

to

avoid

imposition

of

federal

income

and

excise

tax

on

any

remaining

undistributed

capital

gains

and

net

investment

income.

The

timing

and

characterization

of

certain

income

and

capital

gain

distributions

are

determined

in

accordance

with

federal

tax

regulations

which

may

differ

from

U.S.

GAAP.

As

a

result,

net

investment

income

and

net

realized

gain

(or

loss)

on

investments

and

foreign

currency-related

transactions

for

a

reporting

period

may

differ

significantly

from

distributions

during

such

period.

The

differences

between

tax

regulations

and

U.S.

GAAP

primarily

relate

to

investments

in

options,

futures,

forward

contracts,

swap

contracts,

passive

foreign

investment

companies,

foreign-denominated

investments,

mortgage-backed

securities,

certain

securities

sold

at

a

loss,

wash

sale

deferrals

and

capital

loss

carryforwards.

Accordingly,

the

Funds

may

periodically

make

reclassifications

among

certain

of

their

capital

accounts

without

impacting

their

NAVs.

Expenses

The

Funds

pay

their

own

expenses

other

than

those

expressly

assumed

by

RIM,

the

Funds'

adviser,

or

Russell

Investments

Fund

Services,

LLC

("RIFUS"),

the

Funds'

Most

expenses

can

be

directly

attributed

to

the

individual

Funds.

Expenses

which

cannot

be

directly

attributed

to

a

specific

Fund

are

allocated

among

all

Funds

principally

based

on

their

relative

net

assets.

securities,

as

a

result

of

changes

in

the

exchange

rates.

The

Funds

do

not

isolate

that

portion

of

the

results

of

operations

of

the

Funds

that

arises

as

a

result

of

changes

in

exchange

rates

from

that

portion

that

arises

from

changes

in

market

prices

of

investments

during

the

period.

Such

fluctuations

are

included

with

the

net

realized

and

unrealized

gain

or

loss

from

investments.

However,

for

federal

income

tax

purposes,

the

Funds

do

isolate

the

effects

of

changes

in

foreign

exchange

rates

from

the

fluctuations

arising

from

changes

in

market

prices

for

realized

gain

(or

loss)

on

debt

obligations.

Capital

Gains

Taxes

The

Funds

may

be

subject

to

capital

gains

taxes

and

repatriation

taxes

imposed

by

certain

countries

in

which

they

invest.

The

International

Developed

Markets,

Strategic

Bond,

and

Global

Real

Estate

Securities

Funds

may

record

a

deferred

capital

gains

tax

liability

with

respect

to

the

unrealized

appreciation

on

foreign

securities

for

potential

capital

gains

and

repatriation

taxes

as

of

June

30,

2025. The

accrual

for

capital

gains

and

repatriation

taxes

is

included

in

total

distributable

earnings

(losses)

in

the

Statements

of

Assets

and

Liabilities.

The

amounts

related

to

capital

gains

and

repatriation

taxes

are

included

in

net

realized

gain

(loss)

on

investments

and

change

in

unrealized

gain

(loss)

on

investments

in

the

Statements

of

Operations.

Derivatives

The

Funds

may

invest

in

derivatives.

Derivatives

are

instruments

or

agreements

whose

value

is

derived

from

an

underlying

security

or

index.

They

include,

among

others,

options,

futures,

swaps

and

forwards.

These

instruments

offer

unique

characteristics

and

risks

that

facilitate

the

Funds'

investment

strategies.

The

Funds

typically

use

derivatives

in

three

ways:

exposing

cash

to

markets,

hedging

and

return

enhancement.

In

addition,

certain

Funds

may

enter

into

foreign

currency

exchange

contracts

for

trade

settlement

purposes.

Certain

Funds

may

pursue

their

strategy

of

being

fully

invested

by

exposing

cash

to

the

performance

of

appropriate

markets

by

purchasing

securities

and/or

derivatives.

This

is

intended

to

cause

such

Funds

to

perform

as

though

cash

were

actually

invested

in

those

markets.

Hedging

may

be

used

by

certain

Funds

to

limit

or

control

risks,

such

as

adverse

movements

in

exchange

rates

and

interest

rates.

Return

enhancement

can

be

accomplished

through

the

use

of

derivatives

in

a

Fund,

including

using

derivatives

as

a

substitute

for

holding

physical

securities,

and

using

them

to

express

various

macro

views

(e.g.,

interest

rate

movements,

currency

movements,

and

macro

credit

strategies).

By

purchasing

certain

instruments,

the

Funds

may

more

effectively

achieve

the

desired

portfolio

characteristics

that

assist

them

in

meeting

their

investment

objectives.

Depending

on

how

the

derivatives

are

structured

and

utilized,

the

risks

associated

with

them

may

vary

widely.

These

risks

include,

but

are

not

limited

to,

market

risk,

liquidity

risk,

leveraging

risk,

counterparty

risk,

basis

risk,

reinvestment

risk,

political

risk,

prepayment

risk,

extension

risk,

operational

risk,

legal

risk,

valuation

risk

and

credit

risk.

Futures,

certain

options

and

cleared

swaps

are

traded

or

cleared

on

an

exchange

or

central

exchange

clearing

house.

Exchange-

traded

or

exchange-cleared

transactions

generally

present

less

counterparty

risk

to

a

Fund.

The

exchange's

clearing

house

stands

between

the

Fund

and

the

broker

to

the

contract

and

therefore,

credit

risk

is

generally

limited

to

the

failure

of

the

clearing

house

and

the

clearing

member.

Cleared

swap

contracts

are

subject

to

clearing

house

rules,

including

initial

and

variation

margin

requirement,

daily

settlement

of

obligations

and

the

clearing

house

guarantee

of

payments

to

the

broker.

There

is,

however,

still

counterparty

risk

due

to

the

insolvency

of

the

broker

with

respect

to

any

margin

held

in

the

broker's

customer

accounts.

While

clearing

members

are

required

to

segregate

customer

assets

from

their

own

assets,

in

the

event

of

insolvency,

there

may

be

a

shortfall

in

the

amount

of

margin

held

by

the

broker

for

its

clients.

Foreign

Currency

Exchange

Contracts

Certain

Funds

may

enter

into

foreign

currency

exchange

spot

contracts

and

forward

foreign

currency

exchange

contracts

("FX

contracts").

From

time

to

time,

certain

Funds

may

enter

into

FX

contracts

to

hedge

certain

foreign

currency-denominated

assets.

FX

contracts

are

recorded

at

fair

value.

Certain

risks

may

arise

upon

entering

into

these

FX

contracts

from

the

potential

inability

of

counterparties

to

meet

the

terms

of

their

FX

contracts

and

are

generally

limited

to

the

amount

of

unrealized

gain

on

the

FX

contracts,

if

any,

that

are

disclosed

in

the

Statements

of

Assets

and

Liabilities.

For

the

period

ended

June

30,

2025,

the

following

Funds

entered

into

FX

contracts

primarily

for

the

strategies

listed

below:

Options

Certain

Funds

may

purchase

and

sell

(write)

both

call

and

put

options

on

securities,

securities

indexes,

foreign

currencies

and

other

assets.

Such

options

are

traded

on

a

national

securities

exchange

or

in

an

OTC

market.

The

Funds

may

also

purchase

and

sell

(write)

call

and

put

options

on

foreign

currencies.

When

a

Fund

writes

a

covered

call

or

a

put

option,

an

amount

equal

to

the

premium

received

by

the

Fund

is

included

in

the

Fund's

Statement

of

Assets

and

Liabilities

as

an

asset

and

as

an

equivalent

liability.

The

amount

of

the

liability

is

subsequently

marked-to-market

to

reflect

the

current

fair

value

of

the

option

written.

The

Fund

receives

a

premium

on

the

sale

of

a

call

option

but

gives

up

the

opportunity

to

profit

from

any

increase

in

the

value

of

the

underlying

instrument

above

the

exercise

price

of

the

option,

and

when

the

Fund

writes

a

put

option

it

is

exposed

to

a

decline

in

the

price

of

the

underlying

instrument.

When

a

Fund

sells

an

uncovered

call

option,

it

does

not

simultaneously

have

a

long

position

in

the

underlying

security.

When

a

Fund

sells

an

uncovered

put

option,

it

does

not

simultaneously

have

a

short

position

in

the

underlying

security.

Uncovered

options

are

riskier

than

covered

options

because

there

is

no

underlying

security

held

by

the

Fund

that

can

act

as

a

partial

hedge.

Whether

an

option

which

the

Fund

has

written

expires

on

its

stipulated

expiration

date

or

the

Fund

enters

into

a

closing

purchase

transaction,

the

Fund

realizes

a

gain

(or

loss,

if

the

cost

of

a

closing

purchase

transaction

exceeds

the

premium

received

when

the

option

was

sold)

without

regard

to

any

unrealized

gain

or

loss

on

the

underlying

security,

and

the

liability

related

to

such

option

is

extinguished.

If

a

call

option

which

the

Fund

has

written

is

exercised,

the

Fund

realizes

a

capital

gain

or

loss

from

the

sale

of

the

underlying

security,

and

the

proceeds

from

such

sale

are

increased

by

the

premium

originally

received.

When

a

put

option

which

a

Fund

has

written

is

exercised,

the

amount

of

the

premium

originally

received

will

reduce

the

cost

of

the

security

which

a

Fund

purchases

upon

exercise

of

the

option.

The

Funds'

use

of

written

options

involves,

to

varying

degrees,

elements

of

market

risk

in

excess

of

the

amount

recognized

in

the

Statements

of

Assets

and

Liabilities.

The

face

or

contract

amounts

of

these

instruments

reflect

the

extent

of

the

Funds'

exposure

to

market

risk.

The

risks

may

be

caused

by

an

imperfect

correlation

between

movements

in

the

price

of

the

instrument

and

the

price

of

the

underlying

securities

and

interest

rates.

Certain

Funds

may

enter

into

swaptions

(an

option

on

a

swap).

In

a

swaption,

in

exchange

for

an

option,

the

buyer

gains

the

right

but

not

the

obligation

to

enter

into

a

specified

swap

agreement

with

the

issuer

on

a

specified

future

date.

The

writer

of

the

contract

receives

the

premium

and

bears

the

risk

of

unfavorable

changes

in

the

preset

rate

on

the

underlying

swap.

For

the

period

ended

June

30,

2025,

the

Funds

did

not

purchase

or

sell

any

options.

Futures

Contracts

Certain

Funds

may

invest

in

futures

contracts

(i.e.,

interest

rate,

foreign

currency

and

index

futures

contracts).

The

face

or

contract

value

of

these

instruments

reflect

the

extent

of

the

Funds'

exposure

to

off

balance

sheet

risk.

The

primary

risks

associated

with

the

use

of

futures

contracts

are

an

imperfect

correlation

between

the

change

in

fair

value

of

the

securities

held

by

the

Funds

and

the

prices

of

futures

contracts,

and

the

possibility

of

an

illiquid

market.

Upon

entering

into

a

futures

contract,

the

Funds

are

required

to

deposit

with

a

broker

an

amount,

termed

the

initial

margin,

which

typically

represents

5%

to

10%

of

the

purchase

price

indicated

in

the

futures

contract.

Payments

to

and

from

the

broker,

known

as

variation

margin,

are

typically

required

to

be

made

on

a

daily

basis

as

the

price

of

the

futures

contract

fluctuates.

Changes

in

initial

settlement

value

are

accounted

for

as

unrealized

appreciation

(depreciation)

until

the

contracts

are

terminated,

at

which

time

realized

gains

and

losses

are

recognized.

For

the

period

ended

June

30,

2025,

the

following

Funds

entered

into

futures

contracts

primarily

for

the

strategies

listed

below:

Swap

Agreements

Certain

Funds

may

enter

into

swap

agreements,

on

either

an

asset-based

or

liability-based

basis,

depending

on

whether

they

are

hedging

their

assets

or

their

liabilities,

and

will

usually

enter

into

swaps

on

a

net

basis

(i.e.,

the

two

payment

streams

are

netted

out,

with

the

Funds

receiving

or

paying

only

the

net

amount

of

the

two

payments).

When

a

Fund

engages

in

a

swap,

it

exchanges

its

obligations

to

pay

or

rights

to

receive

payments

for

the

obligations

to

pay

or

rights

to

receive

payments

of

another

party

(i.e.,

an

exchange

of

floating

rate

payments

for

fixed

rate

payments).

Certain

Funds

may

enter

into

several

different

types

of

swap

agreements

including

credit

default,

interest

rate,

total

return

(equity

and/or

index)

and/or

currency

swaps.

Credit

default

swaps

are

a

counterparty

agreement

which

allows

the

transfer

of

third-party

credit

risk

(the

possibility

that

an

issuer

will

default

on

its

obligation

by

failing

to

pay

principal

or

interest

in

a

timely

manner)

from

one

party

to

another.

The

lender

faces

the

credit

risk

from

a

third-party

and

the

counterparty

in

the

swap

agrees

to

insure

this

risk

in

exchange

for

regular

periodic

payments.

Interest

rate

swaps

are

a

counterparty

agreement,

can

be

customized

to

meet

each

party's

needs,

and

involve

the

exchange

of

a

fixed

or

variable

payment

per

period

for

a

payment

that

is

not

fixed.

Total

return

swaps

are

a

counterparty

agreement

where

two

parties

exchange

two

sets

of

cash

flows

on

predetermined

dates

for

an

agreed

upon

amount

of

time.

The

cash

flows

will

typically

be

an

equity

index

value

swapped

with

a

floating

rate

such

as

SOFR

plus

or

minus

a

pre-defined

spread.

Total

return

swap

agreements

are

a

counterparty

agreement

intended

to

expose

cash

to

markets

or

to

effect

investment

transactions

consistent

with

those

Funds'

investment

objectives

and

strategies.

Currency

swaps

are

a

counterparty

agreement

where

two

parties

exchange

specified

amounts

of

different

currencies

which

are

followed

by

each

paying

the

other

a

series

of

interest

payments

that

are

based

on

the

principal

cash

flow.

At

maturity

the

principal

amounts

are

returned.

The

Funds

generally

expect

to

enter

into

these

transactions

primarily

to

preserve

a

return

or

spread

on

a

particular

investment

or

portion

of

their

portfolios

or

to

protect

against

any

increase

in

the

price

of

securities

they

anticipate

purchasing

at

a

later

date,

or

for

return

enhancement.

Under

most

swap

agreements

entered

into

by

a

Fund,

the

parties'

obligations

are

determined

on

a

"net

basis".

If

there

is

a

default

by

the

other

party

to

such

a

transaction,

the

Funds

will

have

contractual

remedies

pursuant

to

the

agreement

related

to

the

transaction.

A

Fund

may

not

receive

the

expected

amount

under

a

swap

agreement

if

the

other

party

to

the

agreement

defaults

or

becomes

bankrupt.

Credit

Default

Swaps

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

enter

into

credit

default

swaps.

A

credit

default

swap

can

refer

to

corporate

issues,

government

issues,

asset-backed

securities

or

an

index

of

assets,

each

known

as

the

or

Depending

upon

the

terms

of

the

the

may

be

closed

via

physical

However,

due

to

the

possible

in

there

is

a

risk

that

the

seller

may

be

unable

to

deliver

the

Additionally,

if

the

other

to

In

an

unhedged

credit

the

Fund

would

enter

into

a

credit

default

swap

without

owning

the

Credit

allow

As

the

the

would

be

obligation.

In

return,

the

Fund

would

receive

from

the

counterparty

a

periodic

stream

of

payments

over

the

term

of

the

contract

provided

that

no

credit

event

has

occurred.

If

no

credit

event

occurs,

the

Fund

would

keep

the

stream

of

payments

and

would

have

no

payment

obligations.

As

a

seller

of

protection,

the

Fund

would

effectively

add

leverage

to

its

portfolio

because,

in

addition

to

its

total

net

assets,

that

Fund

would

be

subject

to

investment

exposure

on

the

notional

amount

of

the

swap.

The

Fund

may

also

purchase

protection

via

credit

default

swap

contracts

in

order

to

offset

the

risk

of

default

of

debt

securities

held

in

its

portfolio

or

to

take

a

short

position

in

a

debt

security,

in

which

case

the

Fund

would

function

as

the

counterparty

referenced

in

the

preceding

paragraph.

If

a

credit

event

occurs

and

cash

settlement

is

not

elected,

a

variety

of

other

deliverable

obligations

may

be

delivered

in

lieu

of

the

specific

referenced

obligation.

The

ability

to

deliver

other

obligations

may

result

in

a

cheapest-to-deliver

option

(i.e.,

the

buyer

of

protection's

right

to

choose

the

deliverable

obligation

with

the

lowest

value

following

a

credit

event).

The

Fund

may

use

credit

default

swaps

to

provide

a

measure

of

protection

against

defaults

of

the

issuers

(i.e.,

to

reduce

risk

where

the

Fund

owns

or

has

exposure

to

the

referenced

obligation)

or

to

take

an

active

long

or

short

position

with

respect

to

the

likelihood

(as

measured

by

the

credit

default

swap's

spread)

of

a

particular

issuer's

default.

Deliverable

obligations

for

credit

default

swaps

on

asset-backed

securities

in

most

instances

are

limited

to

the

specific

referenced

obligation

as

performance

for

asset-backed

securities

can

vary

across

deals.

Prepayments,

principal

paydowns,

and

other

writedown

or

loss

events

on

the

underlying

mortgage

loans

will

reduce

the

outstanding

principal

balance

of

the

referenced

obligation.

These

reductions

may

be

temporary

or

permanent

as

defined

under

the

terms

of

the

swap

agreement

and

the

notional

amount

for

the

swap

agreement

generally

will

be

adjusted

by

corresponding

amounts.

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

use

credit

default

swaps

on

asset-backed

securities

to

provide

a

measure

of

protection

against

defaults

(or

other

defined

credit

events)

of

the

referenced

obligation

or

to

take

an

active

long

or

short

position

with

respect

to

the

likelihood

of

a

particular

referenced

obligation's

default

(or

another

defined

credit

event).

Credit

default

swap

agreements

on

credit

indices

involve

one

party

making

a

stream

of

payments

to

another

party

in

exchange

for

the

right

to

receive

a

specified

return

in

the

event

of

a

write-down,

principal

shortfall,

interest

shortfall

or

default

of

all

or

part

of

the

referenced

entities

comprising

the

credit

index.

A

credit

index

is

a

basket

of

credit

instruments

or

exposures

designed

to

be

representative

of

some

part

of

the

credit

market

as

a

whole.

These

indices

are

made

up

of

reference

credits

that

are

judged

by

a

poll

of

dealers

to

be

the

most

liquid

entities

in

the

credit

default

swap

market

based

on

the

sector

of

the

index.

Components

of

the

indices

may

include,

but

are

not

limited

to,

investment

grade

securities,

high

yield

securities,

asset-backed

securities,

emerging

markets,

and/or

various

credit

ratings

within

each

sector.

Credit

indices

are

traded

using

credit

default

swaps

with

standardized

terms

including

a

fixed

spread

and

standard

maturity

dates.

An

index

credit

default

swap

references

all

the

names

in

the

index,

and

if

there

is

a

default,

the

credit

event

is

settled

based

on

that

name's

weight

in

the

index.

The

composition

of

the

indices

changes

periodically,

usually

every

six

months,

and,

for

most

indices,

each

name

has

an

equal

weight

in

the

index.

Traders

may

use

credit

default

swaps

on

indices

to

speculate

on

changes

in

credit

quality.

Implied

disclosed

in

the

Schedules

of

Investments

and

generally

serve

as

an

indicator

of

the

of

the

payment/performance

risk

and

represent

the

likelihood

or

of

default

(or

other

event)

for

the

credit

derivative.

The

implied

credit

spread

of

a

particular

referenced

entity

reflects

the

cost

of

entering

into

a

credit

default

swap

and

may

include

upfront

payments

required

to

be

made

to

enter

into

the

agreement.

For

credit

default

swap

agreements

on

asset-

and

the

amount

of

and

a

greater

or

risk

of

or

other

event

occurring

as

defined

under

the

terms

of

the

agreement.

The

maximum

potential

amount

of

future

payments

(undiscounted)

that

the

Fund

as

a

seller

of

protection

could

be

required

to

make

under

a

credit

default

swap

agreement

equals

the

notional

amount

of

the

agreement.

Notional

amounts

of

all

credit

default

swap

agreements

outstanding

as

of

June

30,

2025,

for

which

the

Fund

is

the

seller

of

protection,

are

disclosed

in

the

Schedule

of

Investments.

These

potential

amounts

would

be

partially

offset

by

any

recovery

values

of

the

respective

referenced

obligations,

upfront

payments

received

upon

entering

into

the

agreement,

or

net

amounts

received

from

the

settlement

of

buy

protection

credit

default

swap

agreements

entered

into

by

the

Fund

for

the

same

referenced

entity

or

entities.

Credit

default

swaps

could

result

in

losses

if

the

Fund

does

not

correctly

evaluate

the

creditworthiness

of

the

company

or

companies

on

which

the

credit

default

swap

is

based.

Credit

default

swap

agreements

may

involve

greater

risks

than

if

the

Fund

had

invested

in

the

reference

obligation

directly

since,

in

addition

to

risks

relating

to

the

reference

obligation,

credit

default

swaps

are

subject

to

illiquidity

and

counterparty

risk.

The

Fund

will

generally

incur

a

greater

degree

of

risk

when

it

sells

a

credit

default

swap

than

when

it

purchases

a

credit

default

swap.

As

a

buyer

of

a

credit

default

swap,

the

Fund

may

lose

its

investment

and

recover

nothing

should

a

credit

event

fail

to

occur

and

the

swap

is

held

to

its

termination

date.

As

seller

of

a

credit

default

swap,

if

a

credit

event

were

to

occur,

the

value

of

any

deliverable

obligation

received

by

the

Fund,

coupled

with

the

upfront

or

periodic

payments

previously

received,

may

be

less

than

what

it

pays

to

the

buyer,

resulting

in

a

loss

of

value

to

the

Fund.

If

the

creditworthiness

of

the

Fund's

swap

counterparty

declines,

the

risk

that

the

counterparty

may

not

perform

could

increase,

potentially

resulting

in

a

loss

to

the

Fund.

To

limit

the

counterparty

risk

involved

in

swap

agreements,

the

Fund

will

only

enter

into

swap

agreements

with

counterparties

that

meet

certain

standards

of

creditworthiness.

Although

there

can

be

no

assurance

that

the

Fund

will

be

able

to

do

so,

the

Fund

may

be

able

to

reduce

or

eliminate

its

exposure

under

a

swap

agreement

either

by

assignment

or

other

disposition,

or

by

entering

into

an

offsetting

swap

agreement

with

the

same

party

or

another

creditworthy

party.

The

Fund

may

have

limited

ability

to

eliminate

its

exposure

under

a

credit

default

swap

if

the

credit

quality

of

the

reference

entity

or

underlying

asset

has

declined.

For

the

period

ended

June

30,

2025,

the

Strategic

Bond

Fund

entered

into

credit

default

swaps

primarily

for

return

enhancement,

hedging

and

exposing

cash

to

markets.

Interest

Rate

Swaps

Certain

Funds

may

enter

into

interest

rate

swaps.

The

use

of

interest

rate

swaps

is

a

highly

specialized

activity

which

involves

investment

techniques

and

risks

different

from

those

associated

with

ordinary

portfolio

securities

transactions.

If

RIM

or

a

money

manager

using

this

technique

is

incorrect

in

its

forecast

of

fair

values,

interest

rates

and

other

applicable

factors,

the

investment

performance

of

a

Fund

might

diminish

compared

to

what

it

would

have

been

if

this

investment

technique

were

not

used.

Interest

rate

swaps

do

not

involve

the

delivery

of

securities

or

other

underlying

assets

or

principal.

Accordingly,

the

risk

of

loss

with

respect

to

interest

rate

swaps

is

limited

to

the

net

amount

of

interest

payments

that

a

Fund

is

contractually

obligated

to

make.

Interest

rate

swaps

are

traded

on

exchanges

and

are

subject

to

central

clearing.

If

the

clearing

house

or

futures

commission

merchant

defaults,

a

Fund's

risk

of

loss

consists

of

the

net

amount

of

interest

payments

that

a

Fund

is

contractually

entitled

to

receive.

The

counterparty

risk

for

cleared

derivatives

is

generally

lower

than

for

uncleared

derivatives.

However,

clearing

may

subject

a

Fund

to

increased

costs

or

margin

requirements.

For

the

period

ended

June

30,

2025,

the

Strategic

Bond

Fund

entered

into

interest

rate

swaps

primarily

for

return

enhancement,

hedging

and

exposing

cash

to

markets.

Total

Return

Swaps

Certain

Funds

may

enter

into

total

return

swap

agreements

to

expose

cash

to

markets

or

to

effect

investment

transactions.

Total

return

swap

agreements

are

two-party

contracts

entered

into

primarily

by

institutional

investors

for

periods

ranging

from

a

few

weeks

to

more

than

one

year.

In

a

standard

total

return

swap

transaction,

the

two

parties

agree

to

exchange

the

returns

(or

differentials

in

rates

of

return)

earned

or

realized

on

particular

investments

or

instruments.

The

returns

to

be

exchanged

between

the

parties

are

calculated

with

respect

to

a

"notional

amount"

(i.e.,

a

specified

dollar

amount

that

is

hypothetically

invested

in

a

"basket"

of

securities

representing

a

particular

index).

For

the

period

ended

June

30,

2025,

the

Funds

did

not

enter

into

any

total

return

swaps.

Currency

Swaps

Certain

Funds

may

enter

into

currency

swap

agreements

to

enhance

returns

or

for

hedging

purposes.

Currency

swap

agreements

are

agreements

where

two

parties

exchange

specified

amounts

of

different

currencies

which

are

followed

by

paying

the

other

a

series

of

interest

payments

that

are

based

on

the

principal

cash

flow.

At

maturity,

the

principal

amounts

are

exchanged.

For

the

period

ended

June

2025,

the

Funds

did

not

enter

into

any

currency

swaps.

Master

Agreements

Certain

Funds

are

parties

to

International

Swaps

and

Derivatives

Association,

Inc.

Master

Agreements

("ISDA

Master

Agreements")

with

counterparties

that

govern

transactions

in

OTC

derivative

and

foreign

exchange

contracts

entered

into

by

the

Funds

and

those

counterparties.

The

ISDA

Master

Agreements

contain

provisions

for,

among

other

things,

general

obligations,

representations,

agreements,

collateral

and

events

of

default

or

termination.

Events

of

termination

and

default

include

conditions

that

may

entitle

either

party

to

elect

to

terminate

early

and

cause

settlement

of

all

outstanding

transactions

under

the

applicable

ISDA

Master

Agreement.

Any

election

to

terminate

early

could

be

material

to

the

financial

statements.

Since

different

types

of

forward

and

OTC

financial

derivative

transactions

have

different

mechanics

and

are

sometimes

traded

out

of

different

legal

entities

of

a

particular

counterparty

organization,

each

type

of

transaction

may

be

covered

by

a

different

ISDA

Master

Agreement,

resulting

in

the

need

for

multiple

agreements

with

a

single

counterparty.

As

the

ISDA

Master

Agreements

are

specific

to

unique

operations

of

different

asset

types,

they

allow

a

Fund

to

net

its

total

exposure

to

a

counterparty

in

the

event

of

a

default

with

respect

to

all

the

transactions

governed

under

a

single

agreement

with

a

counterparty.

Master

Repurchase

Agreements

("Master

Repo

Agreements")

govern

transactions

between

a

Fund

and

select

counterparties.

The

Master

Repo

Agreements

contain

provisions

for,

among

other

things,

initiation,

income

payments,

events

of

default,

and

maintenance

of

collateral

for

repurchase

and

reverse

repurchase

agreements.

Master

Securities

Forward

Transaction

Agreements

("Master

Forward

Agreements")

govern

the

considerations

and

factors

surrounding

the

settlement

of

certain

forward

settling

transactions,

such

as

delayed

delivery

by

and

between

a

Fund

and

select

counterparties.

The

Master

Forward

Agreements

contain

provisions

for,

among

other

things,

initiation

and

confirmation,

payment

and

transfer,

events

of

default,

termination,

and

maintenance

of

collateral.

Disclosure

about

Offsetting

Assets

and

Liabilities

Balance

sheet

disclosure

is

based

on

various

netting

agreements

between

brokers

and

counterparties,

such

as

ISDA

Master

Agreements,

Master

Repo

Agreements

and

Master

Forward

Agreements.

Certain

Funds

utilize

multiple

counterparties.

The

quantitative

disclosure

begins

with

disaggregation

of

counterparties

by

legal

entity

and

the

roll

up

of

the

data

to

reflect

a

single

counterparty

in

the

table

within

the

Funds'

financial

statements.

Net

exposure

represents

the

net

receivable

(payable)

that

would

be

due

from/to

the

counterparty

in

the

event

of

default.

Exposure

from

OTC

derivatives

can

only

be

netted

across

transactions

governed

under

the

same

Master

Agreement

with

the

same

legal

entity.

Loan

Agreements

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

invest

in

direct

debt

instruments,

which

are

interests

in

amounts

owed

by

corporate,

governmental,

or

other

borrowers

to

lenders

or

lending

syndicates.

The

Fund's

investments

in

loans

may

be

in

the

form

of

participations

in

loans

or

assignments

of

all

or

a

portion

of

loans

from

third

parties.

A

loan

is

often

administered

by

a

bank

or

other

financial

institution

(the

"agent")

that

acts

as

agent

for

all

holders.

The

agent

administers

the

terms

of

the

loan,

as

specified

in

the

loan

agreement.

When

investing

in

a

loan

participation,

the

Fund

has

the

right

to

receive

payments

of

principal,

interest

and

any

fees

to

which

it

is

entitled

only

from

the

agent

selling

the

loan

agreement

and

only

upon

receipt

by

the

agent

of

payments

from

the

borrower.

The

Fund

generally

has

no

right

to

enforce

compliance

with

the

terms

of

the

loan

agreement

with

the

borrower.

As

a

result,

the

Fund

may

be

subject

to

the

credit

risk

of

both

the

borrower

and

the

agent

that

is

selling

the

loan

agreement.

When

the

Fund

purchases

assignments

from

agents

it

acquires

direct

rights

against

the

borrower

on

the

loan.

Local

Access

Products

Certain

Funds

may

invest

in

local

access

products,

also

known

as

certificates

of

participation,

participation

notes

or

participation

interest

notes.

Local

access

products

are

issued

by

banks

or

broker-dealers

and

are

designed

to

replicate

the

performance

of

foreign

companies

or

foreign

securities

markets

and

can

be

used

by

the

Fund

as

an

alternative

means

to

access

the

securities

market

of

a

frontier

emerging

market

country.

The

performance

results

of

local

access

products

will

not

replicate

exactly

the

performance

of

the

foreign

companies

or

foreign

securities

markets

that

they

seek

to

replicate

expenses.

Investments

in

local

access

products

involve

certain

risks

in

addition

to

those

associated

with

a

direct

investment

in

the

underlying

foreign

companies

or

foreign

securities

markets

whose

return

they

seek

to

replicate.

There

can

be

no

assurance

that

there

will

be

a

trading

market

or

that

the

trading

price

of

local

access

products

will

equal

the

underlying

value

of

the

foreign

company

or

foreign

securities

market

that

it

seeks

to

replicate.

The

Funds

rely

on

the

creditworthiness

of

the

counterparty

issuing

the

local

access

products

and

have

no

rights

against

the

issuer

of

the

underlying

security.

The

Funds

seek

to

minimize

this

risk

by

entering

into

agreements

only

with

counterparties

that

RIM

deems

creditworthy.

Due

to

liquidity

and

transfer

restrictions,

the

secondary

markets

on

which

the

local

access

products

are

traded

may

be

less

liquid

than

the

markets

for

other

securities,

or

may

be

completely

illiquid.

Credit

Linked

Notes

Certain

Funds

may

invest

in

credit

linked

notes.

Credit

notes

are

obligations

two

or

more

parties

where

the

payment

of

principal

and/or

interest

is

based

on

the

performance

of

some

obligation,

basket

of

obligations,

index

or

economic

indicator

(a

"reference

instrument").

In

addition

to

the

credit

risk

associated

with

the

reference

instrument

and

interest

rate

risk,

the

buyer

and

seller

of

a

credit

linked

note

or

similar

structured

investment

are

subject

to

counterparty

risk.

Short

Sales

The

U.S.

Strategic

Equity

and

U.S.

Small

Cap

Equity

Funds

may

enter

into

short

sale

transactions.

In

a

short

sale,

the

seller

sells

a

security

that

it

does

not

own,

typically

a

security

borrowed

from

a

broker

or

dealer.

Because

the

seller

remains

liable

to

return

the

underlying

security

that

it

borrowed

from

the

broker

or

dealer,

the

seller

must

purchase

the

security

prior

to

the

date

on

which

delivery

to

the

broker

or

dealer

is

required.

A

Fund

will

incur

a

loss

as

a

result

of

the

short

sale

if

the

price

of

the

security

increases

between

the

date

of

the

short

sale

and

the

date

on

which

the

Fund

must

return

the

borrowed

security.

A

Fund

will

realize

a

gain

if

the

security

declines

in

price

between

those

dates.

Short

sales

expose

a

Fund

to

the

risk

of

liability

for

the

fair

value

of

the

security

that

is

sold

(the

amount

of

which

increases

as

the

fair

value

of

the

underlying

security

increases),

in

addition

to

the

costs

associated

with

establishing,

maintaining

and

closing

out

the

short

position.

Although

a

Fund's

potential

for

gain

as

a

result

of

a

short

sale

is

limited

to

the

price

at

which

it

sold

the

security

short

less

the

cost

of

borrowing

the

security,

its

potential

for

loss

is

theoretically

unlimited

because

there

is

no

limit

to

the

cost

of

replacing

the

borrowed

security.

When

a

Fund

makes

a

short

sale,

the

Fund

may

use

all

or

a

portion

of

the

cash

proceeds

of

short

sales

to

purchase

other

securities

or

for

any

other

permissible

Fund

purpose.

The

U.S.

Strategic

Equity

Fund

and

U.S.

Small

Cap

Equity

Fund

may

engage

in

short

sale

transactions

that

are

effected

through

State

Street

Bank

and

Trust

Company

("State

Street")

but

reserve

the

right

to

engage

in

short

sale

transactions

through

one

or

more

other

counterparties.

For

short

sale

transactions

effected

through

State

Street,

the

Funds

typically

expect

to

collateralize

short

sale

transactions

through

the

Funds'

respective

reciprocal

lending

activity

with

State

Street

(i.e.,

short

sale

transactions

are

collateralized

by

securities

loaned

to

State

Street

for

purposes

of

securities

lending

activities).

The

Funds

may

also

deliver

cash

to

State

Street

for

purposes

of

collateralizing

their

short

sales

transactions

or

"memo

pledge"

securities

as

collateral,

whereby

assets

are

designated

as

collateral

by

State

Street

on

State

Street's

books

but

remain

in

a

Fund's

custody

account.

Similar

to

the

risks

generally

applicable

to

securities

lending

arrangements,

participation

in

the

reciprocal

lending

program

subjects

these

Funds

to

the

risk

that

State

Street

could

fail

to

return

a

security

lent

to

it

by

a

Fund,

or

fail

to

return

the

Fund's

cash

collateral,

a

risk

which

would

increase

with

any

decline

in

State

Street's

credit

profile.

However,

the

impact

of

State

Street's

failure

to

return

a

security

lent

to

it

by

a

Fund,

or

failure

to

return

a

Fund's

cash

collateral,

would

be

mitigated

by

the

Fund's

right

under

such

circumstances

to

decline

to

return

the

securities

the

Fund

initially

borrowed

from

State

Street

with

respect

to

its

short

sale

transactions.

This

risk

may

be

heightened

during

periods

of

market

stress

and

volatility,

particularly

if

the

type

of

collateral

provided

is

different

than

the

type

of

security

borrowed

(e.g.,

cash

is

provided

as

collateral

for

a

loan

of

an

equity

security).

To

the

extent

necessary

to

meet

collateral

requirements

associated

with

a

short

sale

transaction

involving

a

counterparty

other

than

State

Street,

the

Funds

are

required

to

pledge

assets

in

a

segregated

account

maintained

by

the

Funds'

custodian

for

the

benefit

of

the

broker.

The

Funds

may

also

use

securities

they

own

to

meet

any

such

collateral

obligations.

These

requirements

may

result

in

the

Funds

being

unable

to

purchase

or

sell

securities

or

instruments

when

it

would

otherwise

be

favorable

to

do

so,

or

in

the

Funds

needing

to

sell

holdings

at

a

disadvantageous

time

to

satisfy

their

obligations.

If

the

Fund's

prime

broker

fails

to

make

or

take

delivery

of

a

security

as

part

of

a

short

sale

transaction,

or

fails

to

make

a

cash

settlement

payment,

the

settlement

of

the

transaction

may

be

delayed

and

the

Fund

may

lose

money.

Securities

Lending

The

Investment

Company

has

a

securities

lending

program

whereby

each

Fund

can

loan

securities

with

a

value

up

to

1/3%

of

each

Fund's

total

assets.

The

maturity

associated

with

these

securities

is

considered

continuous.

The

Fund

receives

cash

(U.S.

currency),

U.S.

government

or

U.S.

government

agency

obligations

as

collateral

against

the

loaned

securities.

The

collateral

cannot

be

resold,

repledged

or

rehypothecated.

The

collateral

received

is

recorded

on

a

lending

Fund's

Statement

of

Assets

and

Liabilities

along

with

the

related

obligation

to

return

the

collateral.

To

the

extent

that

a

loan

is

secured

by

non-cash

collateral,

brokers

pay

the

Fund

negotiated

lenders'

fees,

which

are

divided

between

the

Fund

and

the

securities

lending

agent

and

are

recorded

as

securities

lending

income

for

the

Fund.

All

collateral

received

will

be

in

an

amount

at

least

equal

to

102%

(for

loans

of

U.S.

securities)

or

105%

(for

loans

of

non-U.S.

securities)

of

the

fair

value

of

the

loaned

securities

at

the

inception

of

each

loan.

The

fair

value

of

the

loaned

securities

is

determined

at

the

close

of

business

of

the

Fund

and

any

additional

required

collateral

is

delivered

to

the

Fund

the

next

day.

Should

the

borrower

of

the

securities

fail

financially,

there

is

a

risk

of

delay

in

recovery

of

the

securities

or

loss

of

rights

in

the

collateral.

Emerging

Markets

Securities

Certain

Funds

may

invest

in

emerging

markets

securities.

Investing

in

emerging

markets

securities

can

pose

some

risks

different

from,

and

greater

than,

risks

of

investing

in

U.S.

or

developed

markets

securities.

These

risks

include:

a

risk

of

loss

due

to

exposure

to

economic

structures

that

are

generally

less

diverse

and

mature,

and

to

political

systems

which

may

have

less

stability,

than

those

of

more

developed

countries;

smaller

market

capitalization

of

securities

markets,

which

may

suffer

periods

of

relative

illiquidity

(including

as

a

result

of

a

significant

reduction

in

the

number

of

market

participants

or

transactions);

significant

price

volatility;

restrictions

on

foreign

investment;

possible

difficulties

in

the

repatriation

of

investment

income

and

capital

including

as

a

result

of

the

closure

of

securities

markets

in

an

emerging

market

country;

and

generally,

less

stringent

investor

protection

standards

as

compared

with

investments

in

U.S.

or

other

developed

market

equity

securities.

In

addition,

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.

The

currencies

of

emerging

market

countries

may

experience

significant

declines

against

the

U.S.

dollar,

and

devaluation

may

occur

subsequent

to

investments

in

these

currencies

by

the

Funds.

Emerging

market

securities

may

be

subject

to

currency

transfer

restrictions

and

may

experience

delays

and

disruptions

in

settlement

procedures

for

such

securities.

Inflation

and

rapid

fluctuations

in

inflation

rates

have

had,

and

may

continue

to

have,

negative

effects

on

the

economies

and

securities

markets

of

certain

emerging

market

countries.

Emerging

market

countries

may

be

more

likely

to

experience

the

imposition

of

economic

sanctions

by

foreign

governments.

In

addition,

emerging

market

countries

may

be

subject

to

less

stringent

requirements

regarding

accounting,

auditing,

financial

reporting

and

record

keeping

and

therefore,

all

material

information

may

not

be

available

or

reliable.

U.S.

regulatory

authorities'

ability

to

enforce

legal

and/or

regulatory

obligations

against

individuals

or

entities,

and

shareholders'

ability

to

bring

derivative

litigation

or

otherwise

enforce

their

legal

rights,

in

emerging

market

countries

may

be

limited.

Emerging

Markets

Debt

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

invest

in

emerging

markets

debt.

The

Fund's

emerging

markets

debt

securities

may

include

obligations

of

governments

and

corporations.

As

with

any

fixed

income

securities,

emerging

markets

debt

securities

are

subject

to

the

risk

of

being

downgraded

in

credit

rating

due

to

the

risk

of

default.

In

the

event

of

a

default

on

any

investments

in

foreign

debt

obligations,

it

may

be

more

difficult

for

the

Fund

to

obtain

or

to

enforce

a

judgment

against

the

issuers

of

such

securities.

With

respect

to

debt

issued

by

emerging

market

governments,

such

issuers

may

be

unwilling

to

pay

interest

and

repay

principal

when

due,

potentially

due

either

to

an

inability

to

pay

or

submission

to

political

pressure

not

to

pay,

and

as

a

result

may

default,

declare

temporary

suspensions

of

interest

payments

or

require

that

the

conditions

for

payment

be

renegotiated.

Repurchase

Agreements

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

enter

into

repurchase

agreements.

A

repurchase

agreement

is

an

agreement

under

which

a

Fund

acquires

a

fixed

income

security

from

a

commercial

bank,

broker

or

dealer

and

simultaneously

agrees

to

resell

such

security

(Unaudited)

Notes

to

Financial

Statements

to

the

seller

at

an

agreed

upon

price

and

date

(normally

within

a

few

days

or

weeks).

The

resale

price

reflects

an

agreed

upon

interest

rate

effective

for

the

period

the

security

is

held

by

a

Fund

and

is

unrelated

to

the

interest

rate

on

the

security.

The

securities

acquired

by

a

Fund

constitute

collateral

for

the

repurchase

obligation.

In

these

transactions,

the

securities

acquired

by

a

Fund

(including

accrued

interest

earned

thereon)

must

have

a

total

value

in

excess

of

the

value

of

the

repurchase

agreement

and

must

be

held

by

the

custodian

bank

until

repurchased.

A

Fund

will

not

invest

more

than

15%

of

its

net

assets

(taken

at

current

fair

value)

in

repurchase

agreements

maturing

in

more

than

seven

days.

Mortgage-Related

and

Other

Asset-Backed

Securities

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

invest

in

mortgage

or

other

asset-backed

securities

("ABS").

These

securities

may

include

mortgage

instruments

issued

by

U.S.

government

agencies

("agency

mortgages")

or

those

issued

by

private

entities

("non-

agency

mortgages").

Specific

types

of

instruments

may

include

reverse

mortgages,

mortgage

pass-through

securities,

collateralized

mortgage

obligations

("CMO"),

commercial

mortgage-backed

securities,

mortgage

dollar

rolls,

CMO

residuals,

stripped

mortgage-backed

securities

and

other

securities

that

directly

or

indirectly

represent

a

participation

in,

or

are

secured

by

a

payable

from,

mortgage

loans

on

real

property.

The

value

of

a

Fund's

mortgage-backed

securities

("MBS")

may

be

affected

by,

among

other

things,

changes

or

perceived

changes

in

interest

rates,

factors

concerning

the

interests

in

and

structure

of

the

issuer

or

the

originator

of

the

mortgage,

or

the

quality

of

the

underlying

assets.

The

mortgages

underlying

the

securities

may

default

or

decline

in

quality

or

value.

Through

its

investments

in

MBS,

a

Fund

has

exposure

to

prime

loans,

subprime

loans,

Alt-A

loans

and

non-conforming

loans

as

well

as

to

the

mortgage

and

credit

markets

generally.

Underlying

collateral

related

to

prime,

subprime,

Alt-A

and

non-conforming

mortgage

loans

may

be

susceptible

to

defaults

and

declines

in

quality

or

value,

especially

in

a

declining

residential

real

estate

market.

In

addition,

regulatory

or

tax

changes

may

adversely

affect

the

mortgage

securities

markets

as

a

whole.

Mortgage-Backed

Securities

MBS

often

have

stated

maturities

of

up

to

thirty

years

when

they

are

issued,

depending

upon

the

length

of

the

mortgages

underlying

the

securities.

In

practice,

however,

unscheduled

or

early

payments

of

principal

and

interest

on

the

underlying

mortgages

may

make

the

securities'

effective

maturity

shorter

than

this,

and

the

prevailing

interest

rates

may

be

higher

or

lower

than

the

current

yield

of

a

Fund's

portfolio

at

the

time

resulting

in

reinvestment

risk.

Rising

or

high

interest

rates

may

result

in

slower

than

expected

principal

payments

which

may

tend

to

extend

the

duration

of

MBS,

making

them

more

volatile

and

more

sensitive

to

changes

in

interest

rates.

This

is

known

as

extension

risk.

MBS

may

have

less

potential

for

capital

appreciation

than

comparable

fixed

income

securities

due

to

the

likelihood

of

prepayments

of

mortgages

resulting

from

foreclosures

or

declining

interest

rates.

These

foreclosed

or

refinanced

mortgages

are

paid

off

at

face

value

(par)

or

less,

causing

a

loss,

particularly

for

any

investor

who

may

have

purchased

the

security

at

a

premium

or

a

price

above

par.

In

such

an

environment,

this

risk

limits

the

potential

price

appreciation

of

these

securities.

Agency

Mortgage-Backed

Securities

Certain

MBS

may

be

issued

or

guaranteed

by

the

U.S.

government

or

a

government

sponsored

entity,

such

as

Fannie

Mae

(the

Federal

National

Mortgage

Association)

or

Freddie

Mac

(the

Federal

Home

Loan

Mortgage

Corporation).

Although

these

instruments

may

be

guaranteed

by

the

U.S.

government

or

a

government

sponsored

entity,

many

such

MBS

are

not

backed

by

the

full

faith

and

credit

of

the

United

States

and

are

still

exposed

to

the

risk

of

non-payment.

Privately

Issued

Mortgage-Backed

Securities

MBS

held

by

a

Fund

may

be

issued

by

private

issuers

including

commercial

banks,

savings

associations,

mortgage

companies,

investment

banking

firms,

finance

companies

and

special

purpose

finance

entities

(called

special

purpose

vehicles

or

SPVs)

and

other

entities

that

acquire

and

package

mortgage

loans

for

resale

as

MBS.

These

privately

issued

non-agency

MBS

may

offer

higher

yields

than

those

issued

by

government

agencies,

but

also

may

be

subject

to

greater

price

changes

than

governmental

issues.

Subprime

loans

refer

to

loans

made

to

borrowers

with

weakened

credit

histories

or

with

a

lower

capacity

to

make

timely

payments

on

their

loans.

Alt-A

loans

refer

to

loans

extended

to

borrowers

who

have

incomplete

documentation

of

income,

assets,

or

other

variables

that

are

important

to

the

credit

underwriting

processes.

Non-conforming

mortgages

are

loans

that

do

not

meet

the

standards

that

allow

purchase

by

government-sponsored

enterprises.

MBS

with

exposure

to

subprime

loans,

Alt-A

loans

or

nonconforming

loans

have

had

in

many

cases

higher

default

rates

than

those

loans

that

meet

government

underwriting

requirements.

The

risk

of

non-payment

is

greater

for

MBS

that

are

backed

by

mortgage

pools

that

contain

subprime,

Alt-A

and

non-conforming

loans,

but

a

level

of

risk

exists

for

all

loans.

Unlike

agency

MBS

issued

or

guaranteed

by

the

U.S.

government

or

a

government-sponsored

entity

(e.g.,

Fannie

Mae

and

Freddie

Mac),

MBS

issued

by

private

issuers

do

not

have

a

government

or

government-sponsored

entity

guarantee,

but

may

have

credit

enhancements

provided

by

external

entities

such

as

banks

or

financial

institutions

or

achieved

through

the

structuring

of

the

transaction

itself.

Examples

of

such

credit

support

arising

out

of

the

structure

of

the

transaction

include

the

issue

of

senior

and

subordinated

securities

(e.g.,

of

securities

by

an

SPV

in

multiple

classes

or

tranches,

with

one

or

more

classes

being

senior

to

other

subordinated

classes

as

to

the

payment

of

principal

and

interest,

with

the

result

that

defaults

on

the

underlying

mortgage

loans

are

borne

first

by

the

holders

of

the

subordinated

class);

creation

of

reserve

funds

(in

which

case

cash

or

investments,

sometimes

funded

from

a

portion

of

the

payments

on

the

underlying

mortgage

loans,

are

held

in

reserve

against

future

losses);

and

overcollateralization

(in

which

case

the

scheduled

payments

on,

or

the

principal

amount

of,

the

underlying

mortgage

loans

exceeds

that

required

to

make

payment

on

the

securities

and

pay

any

servicing

or

other

fees).

However,

there

can

be

no

guarantee

that

credit

enhancements,

if

any,

will

be

sufficient

to

prevent

losses

in

the

event

of

defaults

on

the

underlying

mortgage

loans.

In

addition,

MBS

that

are

issued

by

private

issuers

are

not

subject

to

the

underwriting

requirements

for

the

underlying

mortgages

that

are

applicable

to

those

MBS

that

have

a

government

or

government-sponsored

entity

guarantee.

As

a

result,

the

mortgage

loans

underlying

private

MBS

may,

and

frequently

do,

have

less

favorable

collateral,

credit

risk

or

other

underwriting

characteristics

than

government

or

government-sponsored

MBS

and

have

wider

variances

in

a

number

of

terms

including

interest

rate,

term,

size,

purpose

and

borrower

characteristics.

Privately

issued

pools

more

frequently

include

second

mortgages,

high

loan-to-value

mortgages

and

manufactured

housing

loans.

The

coupon

rates

and

maturities

of

the

underlying

mortgage

loans

in

a

private-label

MBS

pool

may

vary

to

a

greater

extent

than

those

included

in

a

government

guaranteed

pool,

and

the

pool

may

include

subprime

mortgage

loans.

Privately

issued

MBS

are

not

traded

on

an

exchange

and

there

may

be

a

limited

market

for

the

securities,

especially

when

there

is

a

perceived

weakness

in

the

mortgage

and

real

estate

market

sectors.

Without

an

active

trading

market,

MBS

held

in

a

Fund's

portfolio

may

be

particularly

difficult

to

value

because

of

the

complexities

involved

in

assessing

the

value

of

the

underlying

mortgage

loans.

Asset-Backed

Securities

ABS

may

include

MBS,

loans,

receivables

or

other

assets.

The

value

of

the

Funds'

ABS

may

be

affected

by,

among

other

things,

actual

or

perceived

changes

in

interest

rates,

factors

concerning

the

interests

in

and

structure

of

the

issuer

or

the

originator

of

the

receivables,

the

market's

assessment

of

the

quality

of

underlying

assets

or

actual

or

perceived

changes

in

the

credit

worthiness

of

the

individual

borrowers,

the

originator,

the

servicing

agent

or

the

financial

institution

providing

the

credit

support.

Payment

of

principal

and

interest

may

be

largely

dependent

upon

the

cash

flows

generated

by

the

assets

backing

the

securities.

Rising

or

high

interest

rates

tend

to

extend

the

duration

of

ABS,

making

them

more

volatile

and

more

sensitive

to

changes

in

interest

rates.

The

underlying

assets

are

sometimes

subject

to

prepayments

which

can

shorten

the

security's

weighted

average

life

and

may

lower

its

return.

Defaults

on

loans

underlying

ABS

have

become

an

increasing

risk

for

ABS

that

are

secured

by

home

equity

loans

related

to

sub-prime,

Alt-A

or

non-conforming

mortgage

loans,

especially

in

a

declining

residential

real

estate

market.

ABS

(other

than

MBS)

present

certain

risks

that

are

not

presented

by

MBS.

Primarily,

these

securities

may

not

have

the

benefit

of

any

security

interest

in

the

related

assets.

Credit

card

receivables

are

generally

unsecured

and

the

debtors

are

entitled

to

the

protection

of

a

number

of

state

and

federal

consumer

credit

laws,

many

of

which

give

such

debtors

the

right

to

set

off

certain

amounts

owed

on

the

credit

cards,

thereby

reducing

the

balance

due.

There

is

the

possibility

that

recoveries

on

repossessed

collateral

may

not,

in

some

cases,

be

available

to

support

payments

on

these

securities.

ABS

are

often

backed

by

a

pool

of

assets

representing

the

obligations

of

a

number

of

different

parties.

To

lessen

the

effect

of

failures

by

obligors

on

underlying

assets

to

make

payments,

the

securities

may

contain

elements

of

credit

support

which

fall

into

two

categories:

(i) liquidity

protection,

and

(ii) protection

against

losses

resulting

from

ultimate

default

by

an

obligor

on

the

underlying

assets.

Liquidity

protection

refers

to

the

provision

of

advances,

generally

by

the

entity

administering

the

pool

of

assets,

to

ensure

that

the

receipt

of

payments

on

the

underlying

pool

occurs

in

a

timely

fashion.

Protection

against

losses

results

from

payment

of

the

insurance

obligations

on

at

least

a

portion

of

the

assets

in

the

pool.

This

protection

may

be

provided

through

guarantees,

policies

or

letters

of

credit

obtained

by

the

issuer

or

sponsor

from

third

parties,

through

various

means

of

structuring

the

transaction

or

through

a

combination

of

such

approaches.

The

Fund

will

not

pay

any

additional

or

separate

fees

for

credit

support.

The

degree

of

credit

support

provided

for

each

issue

is

generally

based

on

historical

information

respecting

the

level

of

credit

risk

associated

with

the

underlying

assets.

Delinquency

or

loss

in

excess

of

that

anticipated

or

failure

of

the

credit

support

could

adversely

affect

the

return

on

an

investment

in

such

a

security.

The

availability

of

ABS

may

be

affected

by

legislative

or

regulatory

developments.

It

is

possible

that

such

developments

may

require

the

Funds

to

dispose

of

any

then-existing

holdings

of

such

securities.

Forward

Commitments

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

contract

to

purchase

securities

for

a

fixed

price

at

a

future

date

beyond

customary

settlement

time.

The

price

of

the

underlying

securities

and

the

date

when

the

securities

will

be

delivered

and

paid

for

are

fixed

at

the

time

the

transaction

is

negotiated.

The

Fund

may

dispose

of

a

forward

commitment

transaction

prior

to

settlement

if

it

is

appropriate

to

do

so

and

may

realize

short-term

gains

(or

losses)

upon

such

sale.

A

forward

commitment

transaction

involves

a

risk

of

loss

if

the

value

of

the

security

to

be

purchased

declines

prior

to

the

settlement

date

or

the

other

party

to

the

transaction

fails

to

complete

the

transaction.

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

invest

in

to-be-announced

("TBA")

mortgage-backed

securities.

A

TBA

security

is

a

forward

mortgage-backed

securities

trade

in

which

a

seller

agrees

to

issue

a

TBA

mortgage-backed

security

at

a

future

date.

The

securities

are

purchased

and

sold

on

a

forward

commitment

basis

with

an

approximate

principal

amount

and

maturity

date.

The

Fund

may

enter

into

TBA

commitments

to

purchase

securities

and/or

enter

into

TBA

sale

commitments

to

hedge

its

portfolio

positions,

to

sell

securities

it

owns

under

delayed

delivery

arrangements,

or

take

a

short

position

in

mortgage-backed

securities.

Due

to

timing

differences,

TBAs

may

be

reflected

as

Securities

Sold

Short

in

the

Schedule

of

Investments.

The

actual

principal

amount

and

maturity

date

will

be

determined

upon

settlement

when

the

specific

mortgage

pools

are

assigned.

These

securities

are

within

the

parameters

of

industry

"good

delivery"

standards.

As

of

June

30,

2025,

the

Strategic

Bond

Fund

had

no

cash

collateral

balances

in

connection

with

TBAs.

Inflation-Indexed

Bonds

The

Strategic

Bond

Fund

may

invest

in

inflation-indexed

securities,

which

are

typically

bonds

or

notes

designed

to

provide

a

return

higher

than

the

rate

of

inflation

(based

on

a

designated

index)

if

held

to

maturity.

A

common

type

of

inflation-indexed

security

is

a

U.S.

Treasury

Inflation-Protected

Security

("TIPS").

The

principal

of

a

TIPS

increases

with

inflation

and

decreases

with

deflation,

as

measured

by

the

Consumer

Price

Index.

When

a

TIPS

matures,

the

adjusted

principal

or

original

principal

is

paid,

whichever

is

greater.

TIPS

pay

interest

twice

a

year,

at

a

fixed

rate.

The

rate

is

applied

to

the

adjusted

principal;

so,

like

the

principal,

interest

payments

rise

with

inflation

and

fall

with

deflation.

Guarantees

In

the

normal

course

of

business,

the

Funds

may

enter

into

contracts

that

contain

a

variety

of

representations

which

provide

general

indemnifications.

The

Funds'

maximum

exposure

under

these

arrangements

is

unknown

as

this

would

involve

future

claims

that

may

be

made

against

the

Funds

that

have

not

yet

occurred.

However,

the

Funds

expect

the

risk

of

loss

to

be

remote.

Market,

Credit

and

Counterparty

Risk

In

the

normal

course

of

business,

the

Funds

trade

financial

instruments

and

enter

into

financial

transactions

where

risk

of

potential

loss

exists

due

to

changes

in

the

market

(market

risk)

or

failure

of

the

other

party

to

a

transaction

to

perform

(credit

risk).

Similar

to

credit

risk,

the

Funds

may

also

be

exposed

to

counterparty

risk

or

risk

that

an

institution

or

other

entity

with

which

the

Funds

have

unsettled

or

open

transactions

will

default.

The

potential

loss

could

exceed

the

value

of

the

relevant

assets

recorded

in

the

Funds'

financial

statements

(the

"Assets").

The

Assets

consist

principally

of

cash

due

from

counterparties

and

investments.

The

extent

of

the

Funds'

exposure

to

market,

credit

and

counterparty

risks

with

respect

to

the

Assets

approximates

their

carrying

value

as

recorded

in

the

and

Liabilities.

Global

financial

markets

are

increasingly

interconnected

and

political

and

economic

conditions

(including

instability

and

volatility

due

to

international

trade

disputes)

and

events

(including

natural

disasters,

pandemics,

epidemics,

social

unrest

and

government

shutdowns)

in

one

country,

region

or

financial

market

may

adversely

impact

issuers

in

a

different

country,

region

or

financial

market.

As

a

result,

issuers

of

securities

held

by

a

Fund

may

experience

significant

declines

in

the

value

of

their

assets

and

even

cease

operations.

This

could

occur

whether

or

not

the

Fund

invests

in

securities

of

issuers

located

in

or

with

significant

exposure

to

the

countries

directly

affected.

Such

conditions

and/or

events

may

not

have

the

same

impact

on

all

types

of

securities

and

may

expose

a

Fund

to

greater

market

and

liquidity

risk

and

potential

difficulty

in

valuing

portfolio

instruments

held

by

a

Fund.

This

could

cause

emergencies

and

other

similar

issues

("public

may

occur

in

have

had

significant

impacts

on

both

the

country

in

which

the

event

is

first

identified

as

well

as

other

countries

Public

health

events

have

reduced

consumer

demand

and

economic

output

in

one

or

more

countries

subject

to

the

public

resulted

in

restrictions

on

and

market

closures

(including

for

extended

periods

of

time),

increased

substantially

the

volatility

of

financial

more

generally,

have

had

a

significant

negative

impact

on

the

economy

of

the

country

or

countries

subject

to

the

public

Public

health

have

also

adversely

affected

the

global

global

supply

chains

and

the

securities

in

which

the

Funds

invest

across

a

number

of

industries,

sectors

and

asset

classes.

The

extent

of

the

impact

depends

on,

among

other

factors,

the

scale

and

duration

of

any

such

public

health

event.

Public

health

events

have

resulted

in

the

governments

of

affected

countries

taking

potentially

significant

measures

to

seek

to

mitigate

the

transmission

of

the

infectious

illness

or

other

public

health

issue

including,

among

other

measures,

imposing

travel

restrictions

and/or

quarantines

and

limiting

the

operations

of

non-essential

businesses.

Any

of

these

events

could

adversely

affect

a

Fund's

investments

and

performance,

including

by

exacerbating

other

pre-existing

political,

social

and

economic

risks.

Governmental

authorities

and

other

entities

may

respond

to

such

events

with

fiscal

and/or

monetary

policy

changes.

It

is

not

guaranteed

that

these

policy

changes

will

have

their

intended

effect

and

it

is

possible

that

the

implementation

of

or

subsequent

reversal

of

such

policy

changes

could

increase

volatility

in

financial

markets,

which

could

adversely

affect

a

Fund's

investments

and

performance.

Russia's

large-scale

invasion

of

Ukraine

in

early

2022

and

the

geo-political

have

impacted

the

Funds'

operations.

The

are

restricted

from

therefore

the

with

applicable

regulatory

requirements.

In

preparation

for

the

annual

review,

the

Independent

Trustees,

with

the

advice

and

assistance

of

their

independent

counsel

("Independent

Counsel"),

also

requested

and

the

Board

considered:

(1) information

and

reports

prepared

by

RIM

relating

to

the

services

provided

by

RIM

(and

its

affiliates)

and

the

Money

Managers

to

the

Funds;

(2) information

and

reports

prepared

by

RIM

relating

to

the

profitability

of

each

Fund

to

RIM

(and

its

affiliates);

and

(3) information

received

from

an

independent,

nationally

recognized

provider

of

investment

company

information

(the

"Third-Party

Provider")

comparing

(i) the

performance

of

the

Funds

over

various

time

periods

and

(ii) the

Funds'

respective

operating

expenses

as

of

each

Fund's

last

fiscal

year

end,

with

other

peer

funds

not

managed

by

RIM,

believed

by

the

Third-Party

Provider

to

be

generally

comparable

to

the

Funds

(the

"Third-

Party

Information").

In

the

case

of

each

Fund,

its

other

peer

funds

are

collectively

hereinafter

referred

to

as

the

Fund's

"Comparable

Funds,"

and,

with

the

Fund,

such

Comparable

Funds

are

collectively

hereinafter

referred

to

as

the

Fund's

"Performance

Universe"

in

the

case

of

performance

comparisons,

and

the

Fund's

"Expense

Universe"

in

the

case

of

operating

expense

comparisons.

The

foregoing

and

other

information

received

by

the

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

in

connection

with

its

evaluations

of

the

Agreements

are

collectively

called

the

"Agreement

Evaluation

Information."

The

Trustees'

evaluations

also

reflected

the

knowledge

and

familiarity

gained

as

Board

members

of

the

Funds

and

the

other

RIM-managed

funds

for

which

the

Board

has

supervisory

responsibility

("Other

RIM

Funds")

with

respect

to

services

provided

by

RIM,

RIM's

affiliates

and

each

Money

Manager.

The

Trustees

received

a

memorandum

from

counsel

to

the

Funds

("Fund

Counsel")

discussing

the

legal

standards

for

their

consideration

of

the

continuations

of

the

Agreements,

and

the

Independent

Trustees

separately

received

a

memorandum

regarding

their

responsibilities

from

their

Independent

At

a

meeting

held

in

on

April

22,

2025

(the

"Agreement

Information

Meeting"),

the

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

in

preparation

for

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Meeting,

met:

(1) in

an

executive

session

with

a

representative

of

TA

Associates

Management,

L.P.

("TA

who

is

also

a

Director

of

RIM

and

Vice

Chairman

of

RIM's

company,

were

present;

(2) met

with

representatives

of

RIM;

and

then

(3) the

Independent

Trustees

met

in

a

private

session

with

Independent

at

which

no

of

RIM

or

the

Funds'

date.

On

the

basis

of

that

review,

at

the

conclusion

of

the

Agreement

Information

Review

Meeting,

the

Independent

Trustees

requested

that

RIM

consider

additional

advisory

fee

waivers

for

the

RIF

U.S.

Small

.

RIM's

proposal

for

a

decrease

in

the

direct

fund-level

cap

and

an

additional

advisory

fee

waiver,

respectively,

was

provided

to

the

Board

on

May

5,

2025. On

May

12,

2025,

the

Independent

met

by

in

a

with

Independent

to

further

discuss

the

in

a

private

with

Independent

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

considered

the

proposed

continuance

of

the

Prior

to

voting

at

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Meeting,

the

Independent

Trustees

again

met

in

private

session

with

Independent

Counsel

to

consider

Agreement

Evaluation

Information

received

from

RIM

and

management

at

and

prior

to

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Meeting.

The

discussion

below

reflects

the

culmination

of

all

of

these

reviews.

In

evaluating

the

Agreements,

the

Board

considered

that

each

of

the

Funds

employs

a

manager-of-managers

method

of

investment

and

that

such

Funds,

in

employing

a

manager-of-managers

method

of

investment,

operate

in

a

manner

that

is

different

from

many

other

investment

companies.

Specifically,

the

Board

considered

that

RIM

has

engaged

multiple

unaffiliated

Money

Managers

for

the

Funds

and

is

responsible

for

paying

fees

to

the

Money

Managers

("Money

Manager

Fees")

out

of

the

advisory

fees

paid

by

the

Funds

to

RIM

for

its

services

under

the

RIM

Agreement.

A

Money

Manager

may

have

(1) a

discretionary

asset

management

assignment

pursuant

to

which

it

is

allocated

a

portion

of

a

Fund's

assets

to

manage

directly

and

for

which

it

selects

and

trades

the

individual

portfolio

securities

for

the

assets

assigned

to

it;

(2) a

non-discretionary

assignment

pursuant

to

which

it

provides

a

model

portfolio

to

RIM

representing

its

investment

recommendations,

based

upon

which

RIM

purchases

and

sells

securities

for

a

Fund;

or

(3) both

a

discretionary

and

a

non-discretionary

assignment.

Money

Manager

Fees

for

a

non-discretionary

assignment

may

be

the

same

as,

or

lower

than,

the

fees

would

be

for

a

discretionary

assignment

with

the

same

Money

Manager.

The

Board

considered

that

RIM

(rather

than

any

Money

Manager)

is

responsible

under

the

RIM

Agreement

for

determining,

implementing

and

maintaining

the

investment

program

for

each

Fund.

In

this

regard,

assets

of

each

Fund

are

allocated

among

RIM

and

the

multiple

Money

Manager

strategies

selected

by

RIM

for

that

Fund.

RIM

may

change

a

Fund's

asset

allocation

to

a

Money

Manager

at

any

time,

including

by

allocating

no

Fund

assets

to

one

or

more

Money

Manager

strategies.

In

addition,

RIM

continues

to

manage

the

investment

of

each

Fund's

cash

and

portions

of

a

Fund

during

transitions

between

discretionary

Money

Managers.

RIM

also

continues

to

manage

directly

any

portion

of

each

Fund's

assets

that

RIM

determines

not

to

allocate

to

Money

Manager

strategies.

Most

Funds

usually,

but

not

always,

pursue

a

strategy

of

being

fully

invested

by

exposing

all

or

a

portion

of

their

cash

to

the

performance

of

certain

markets

by

purchasing

equity

securities,

fixed

income

securities

and/or

derivatives.

This

cash

"equitization"

strategy

is

managed

by

RIM

and

is

intended

to

cause

a

Fund

to

perform

as

though

its

cash

were

actually

invested

in

those

specified

markets

or

strategies.

With

respect

to

the

portion

of

a

Fund

that

RIM

manages

based

upon

non-discretionary

Money

Manager

model

portfolios,

RIM

constructs

a

portfolio

that

represents

the

aggregation

of

the

model

portfolios

based

upon

RIM's

allocation

to

each

Money

Manager's

strategy

through

an

"enhanced

portfolio

implementation,"

or

"emulation,"

process

designed

to

capture

return

streams

of

multiple

Money

Managers

in

a

centralized

portfolio.

RIM

then

implements

the

portfolio

consistent

with

the

aggregation

of

the

model

portfolios,

but

may

deviate

from

such

aggregation

for

the

purposes

of

exposure

and

transaction

cost

management.

RIM

stated

its

belief

that

the

Funds

benefit

from

emulation

through,

among

other

things,

improved

incremental

returns

over

time

due

to

lower

aggregate

transaction

costs

(including

the

impact

of

lower

trading

volume

on

custody

charges)

and

lower

turnover

from

reduced

trading

volumes,

the

potential

for

additional

commission

recapture,

improved

portfolio

efficiency

and

control

by

enabling

the

implementation

team

more

options

for

controlling

investment

exposures,

managing

cash

flows

and

rebalances

between

Money

Manager

strategies,

and

managing

Money

Manager

transitions.

The

Board

noted

the

variety

and

complexity

of

investment

advisory

services

that

RIM

provides

to

the

Funds

under

the

RIM

Agreement.

RIM

is

responsible

for

selecting

(subject

to

Board

approval),

overseeing

and

evaluating

the

performance

results

of

the

Money

Managers

for

each

Fund

and

for

actively

managing

allocations

and

reallocations

of

its

assets

among

Money

Manager

strategies

and

RIM

itself.

Each

discretionary

Money

Manager

for

a

Fund

in

effect

performs

the

function

of

an

individual

portfolio

manager

who

is

responsible

for

researching,

selecting

and

trading

portfolio

securities

for

the

portion

of

the

Fund

assigned

to

it

by

RIM

in

accordance

with

the

Fund's

applicable

investment

objective,

policies

and

restrictions,

any

specific

guidelines

placed

by

RIM

upon

their

selection

of

portfolio

securities,

and

the

Money

Manager's

specified

role

in

a

Fund.

A

Money

Manager's

primary

role

is

to

pursue

a

particular

investment

strategy

that

has

been

selected

and

assigned

to

it

by

RIM

through

sector

and

security

selection

and

risk

control

measures

in

a

manner

that

is

consistent

with

its

RIM-assigned

guidelines.

The

Money

Managers

operate

subject

to

the

oversight

of,

and

instructions

from,

RIM.

For

each

Fund,

RIM

is

responsible

for,

among

other

things,

providing

each

Money

Manager

with

the

investment

guidelines

and

policies

for

the

Fund

and

any

specific

investment

restrictions;

monitoring

the

performance

of

each

Money

Manager

and

Fund;

generally

supervising

compliance

by

the

discretionary

Money

Managers

and,

as

applicable,

the

non-discretionary

Money

Managers

with

each

Fund's

investment

objective

and

policies;

with

respect

to

Funds

with

non-discretionary

Money

Managers,

purchasing

and

selling

securities

for

the

Funds

based

on

model

portfolios

representing

the

investment

recommendations

of

the

non-discretionary

Money

Managers;

managing

Fund

assets

that

are

not

allocated

to

Money

Manager

strategies;

managing

the

Funds'

cash

balances;

and

recommending

at

least

annually

to

the

Board

whether

portfolio

management

contracts

should

be

renewed,

modified

or

terminated.

In

addition

to

its

annual

recommendation

as

to

the

renewal,

#### of

#### Investment

#### Advisory

#### Agreement,

Advisory

Agreement

modification

or

termination

of

portfolio

management

contracts,

RIM

is

responsible

for

recommending

to

the

Board

additions

of

new

Money

Managers

or

terminations

or

replacements

of

existing

Money

Managers

at

any

time

when,

based

on

RIM's

research

and

ongoing

review

and

analysis,

such

actions

are,

in

RIM's

judgment,

appropriate.

RIM

provides

each

Money

Manager

with

specific

investment

guidelines

based

on

a

Fund's

investment

program

and

RIM's

assessment

of

the

Money

Manager's

expertise

and

investment

style

whereby

RIM

attempts

to

capitalize

on

the

strengths

of

each

Money

Manager

and

to

combine

their

investment

activities

in

a

complementary

fashion.

Therefore,

RIM's

selection

of

Money

Managers

is

made

not

only

on

the

basis

of

performance

considerations

but

also

on

the

basis

of

other

factors,

including

anticipated

compatibility

with

other

Money

Managers

in

the

same

Fund.

In

light

of

the

foregoing,

the

overall

performance

of

each

Fund

has

reflected,

in

great

part,

the

performance

of

RIM

in

designing

the

Fund's

investment

program,

structuring

the

Fund,

selecting

effective

Money

Managers,

and

allocating

assets

among

the

Money

Manager

strategies

and

RIM

in

a

manner

designed

to

achieve

the

investment

objectives

of

the

Fund.

In

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

RIM

noted

the

broad

array

of

investment

management

services

provided

to

the

Funds

by

RIM

and

the

relatively

narrow

scope

of

portfolio

management

services

provided

to

the

Funds

by

Money

Managers.

RIM

has

advised

the

Board

that

its

portfolio

construction

process

is

investment

led

and

designed

to

be

conducted

in

a

manner

that

is

consistent

with

its

fiduciary

duties.

The

objective

of

RIM's

portfolio

construction

is

to

meet

a

portfolio's

investment

objective

and

established

excess

return

target.

In

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

RIM

noted

that

while

it

has

general

goals

for

Money

Manager

Fees

in

the

aggregate

globally,

there

are

no

specific

fee

targets

that

are

established

for

individual

portfolios,

which

includes

each

of

the

Funds.

In

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

Money

Manager

Fees,

in

the

aggregate,

must

allow

RIM

to

remain

a

going

concern

with

sufficient

resources

to

provide

required

services

to

the

Funds

and

to

earn

a

reasonable

profit.

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

RIM

portfolio

managers

utilize

a

number

of

tools

in

the

portfolio

construction

process

in

order

to

meet

a

Fund's

objective

taking

into

account

Money

Manager

Fees.

These

tools

include,

among

others,

Money

Manager

selection,

Money

Manager

allocation,

Money

Manager

Fee

negotiations,

guideline

customization

and

RIM's

direct

management

of

a

portion

of

the

Funds'

assets

(as

further

described

below).

The

Board

considered

that

the

prospectuses

for

the

Funds

and

other

public

disclosures

have

emphasized,

and

continue

to

emphasize,

to

investors

RIM's

role

as

the

principal

investment

manager

for

each

such

Fund,

rather

than

the

investment

selection

or

recommendation

role

of

the

Money

Managers,

and

describe

the

manner

in

which

the

Funds

operate

so

that

investors

may

take

that

information

into

account

when

deciding

to

purchase

shares

of

any

Fund.

The

Board

further

considered

that

Fund

investors

in

pursuing

their

investment

goals

and

objectives

likely

purchased

their

shares

on

the

basis

of

this

information

and

RIM's

reputation

and

experience

in

managing

the

Funds'

manager-of-managers

structure.

The

Board

also

considered

the

demands

and

complexity

of

managing

the

Funds

pursuant

to

the

manager-of-managers

structure,

the

special

expertise

of

RIM

with

respect

to

the

manager-of-managers

structure

of

the

Funds

and

the

possibility

that,

at

the

current

expense

ratio

of

each

Fund,

there

might

be

no

acceptable

alternative

investment

managers

to

replace

RIM

on

comparable

terms

given

the

need

to

continue

the

manager-of-managers

strategy

of

such

Fund

selected

by

shareholders

in

purchasing

their

shares.

In

addition

to

these

general

factors

relating

to

the

manager-of-managers

structure

of

the

Funds,

the

Trustees

considered,

with

respect

to

each

Fund,

various

specific

factors

in

evaluating

the

renewal

of

the

RIM

Agreement,

including

the

following:

1. The

nature,

scope

and

overall

quality

of

the

investment

management

and

other

services

provided,

and

expected

to

be

provided,

to

the

Fund

by

RIM;

2. The

advisory

fee

paid

by

the

Fund

to

RIM

for

its

services

under

the

RIM

Agreement

(the

"Advisory

Fee"),

and

the

fact

that

RIM

pays

all

Money

Manager

Fees

out

of

its

Advisory

Fee;

3. The

combined

Advisory

Fee

paid

to

RIM

and

the

administrative

fee

paid

to

RIM's

wholly

owned

subsidiary

for

administrative

services

(the

"Administrative

Fee,"

and

together

with

the

Advisory

Fee,

the

"Management

Fee");

4. The

performance

of

the

Funds

relative

to

their

respective

benchmark

indices

and

Comparable

Funds;

5. Information

provided

by

RIM

as

to

other

and

benefits

received

by

are

adequately

shared

with

In

connection

with

the

Trustees'

consideration

of

the

nature,

scope

and

overall

quality

of

the

investment

management

and

other

services

provided,

and

which

are

expected

to

be

provided,

to

the

Funds,

including

Fund

portfolio

management

services,

the

Board

discussed

with

senior

representatives

of

RIM

and

RIM's

ultimate

parent

company

certain

initiatives

and

growth

strategies

involving

new

and

potential

new

client

relationships,

new

and

expected

new

product

offerings,

certain

changes

in

senior

personnel

and

the

impact

of

other

recent

changes

in

Russell

Investments'

(as

defined

below)

personnel

providing

services

to

the

Funds.

The

President

and

Chief

Investment

Officer

of

Russell

Investments

discussed

with

the

Board

the

performance

of

certain

Funds,

how

Russell

Investments

measures

performance

success,

and

recent

and

planned

investment

process

enhancements.

The

Board

also

discussed

the

Funds'

compliance

program

with

the

Funds'

Chief

Compliance

Officer

("CCO"),

including

certain

items

reported

in

the

annual

report

of

the

CCO

required

under

Rule

38a-1

of

the

1940

Act

(the

"Annual

CCO

Report").

The

Annual

CCO

Report

included

the

status

of

projects,

initiatives

and

enhancements

in

the

past

year

related

to

the

compliance

program

that

the

CCO

identified

in

connection

with

last

year's

Annual

CCO

Report.

The

Annual

CCO

Report

also

included

information

on

the

resources

of

the

compliance

program

and

the

status

of

various

compliance,

operations

and

technology

initiatives

previously

discussed

with

the

Board.

The

CCO

and

Russell

Investments'

Global

Chief

Compliance

Officer

discussed

with

the

Board,

and

the

Board

noted,

certain

enhancements

made

to

the

compliance

programs

of

RIM

and

the

Funds

over

the

past

year

and

suggestions

for

additional

enhancements

going

forward,

certain

staffing

changes

and

areas

of

focus

for

the

upcoming

year.

The

CCO

advised

the

Board

that

the

Funds

and

RIM,

with

respect

to

the

services

RIM

provides

to

the

Funds,

have

each

adopted

and

effectively

implemented

written

policies

and

procedures

that

are

reasonably

designed

to

prevent

violation

of

the

Federal

Securities

Laws

(as

such

term

is

defined

in

the

1940

Act).

RIM

is

an

indirect

wholly

owned

subsidiary

of

Russell

Investments

Group,

Ltd.,

through

which

the

limited

partners

of

certain

private

equity

funds

affiliated

with

TA

Associates

indirectly

have

a

majority

ownership

interest

through

alternative

investment

vehicles

and

the

limited

partners

of

certain

private

equity

funds

affiliated

with

Reverence

Capital

Partners,

L.P.

("Reverence

Capital")

indirectly

have

a

significant

minority

controlling

ownership

interest

(as

"control"

is

defined

in

the

1940

Act)

through

certain

Reverence

Capital

funds

and

alternative

investment

vehicles

in

RIM

and

its

affiliates

("Russell

Investments").

Certain

of

Russell

Investments'

employees

and

Hamilton

Lane

Advisors,

LLC

also

hold

minority,

non-controlling

positions

in

Russell

Investments.

In

connection

with

the

Board's

initial

approval

of

the

RIM

Agreement

in

2015,

TA

Associates

advised

the

Board

of

its

plans

ultimately

to

effect

a

sale

or

other

disposition

of

its

ownership

interest

in

Russell

Investments.

Any

such

future

transaction

("Transaction")

could

cause

a

change

of

control

of

RIM

resulting,

among

other

things,

in

an

assignment

and

termination

of

the

RIM

Agreement,

as

required

by

the

1940

Act

and

by

the

terms

and

conditions

of

the

RIM

Agreement.

In

the

event

of

a

Transaction,

the

Board

would

be

required

to

consider

the

approval

of

the

terms

and

conditions

of

a

replacement

agreement

("Successor

Agreement")

for

the

RIM

Agreement

and,

thereafter,

to

submit

the

Successor

Agreement

to

each

Fund's

shareholders

for

approval,

as

required

by

the

1940

Act.

During

the

executive

session

with

a

representative

of

TA

Associates

held

in

connection

with

the

Agreement

Information

Review

Meeting,

among

other

things,

the

status

of

TA

Associates'

indirect

investment

in

RIM

and

RIM's

access

to

sufficient

resources

to

support

its

activities

in

respect

of

the

Funds,

including

in

light

of

the

current

market

environment,

current

debt

levels,

capital

structure

and

liquidity

of

Russell

Investments

Group,

Ltd.,

and

the

impact

of

certain

changes

in

Russell

Investments'

senior

management

were

discussed.

The

Board

was

not

advised

of

any

change

in

TA

Associates'

ultimate

plans

regarding

its

ownership

interest

in

Russell

Investments.

The

Board

was

advised

of

TA

Associates'

commitment

to

continue

to

support

the

same

level

of

services

currently

being

provided

by

RIM

and

its

affiliates

to

the

Funds.

As

noted

above,

RIM,

in

addition

to

managing

the

investment

of

each

Fund's

cash,

directly

manages

a

portion

(which

may

represent

a

significant

portion)

of

the

Funds

pursuant

to

the

RIM

Agreement,

with

the

actual

allocation

of

Fund

assets

among

Money

Manager

strategies

and

RIM

being

determined

from

time

to

time

by

the

RIM

portfolio

manager(s).

RIM

may

utilize

tools

such

as

"optimization,"

which

involves

the

analysis

of

tradeoffs

between

various

risk

and

return

factors

as

well

as

turnover

and

transaction

costs,

in

order

to

estimate

optimal

portfolio

positioning.

RIM

may

use

strategies

based

on

indexes,

including

optimized

index

sampling

(strategies

that

seek

to

purchase

a

sampling

of

securities

using

optimization

and

risk

models)

and/or

index

replication.

For

certain

Funds,

RIM

may

invest

in

derivative

instruments

and

may

use

derivatives

to

take

both

long

and

short

positions.

direct

management

of

assets

for

these

purposes

is

hereinafter

referred

to

as

the

"Direct

Management

Services."

While

no

new

direct

management

strategies

were

implemented

in

2024,

the

Board

has

been

advised

that,

where

appropriate

in

its

judgment,

RIM

may

continue

exploring

the

possible

addition

of

new

or

expansion

of

existing

Direct

Management

Services.

Therefore,

larger

portions

of

certain

Funds

may

be

managed

directly

by

RIM

pursuant

to

the

Direct

Management

Services.

According

to

RIM,

its

portfolio

managers

combine

Money

Manager

strategies

and,

through

RIM's

Direct

Management

Services,

align

exposures

with

RIM's

preferred

positioning

by

seeking

to

precisely

manage

portfolio

exposures

as

well

as

to

generate

alpha

as

they

construct

portfolios.

RIM's

Direct

Management

Services

are

customized

portfolios

directly

managed

by

RIM

for

use

within

the

total

portfolio

of

a

Fund.

RIM's

Direct

Management

Services

are

used

in

conjunction

with

allocations

to

Money

Manager

strategies

to

fully

reflect

RIM's

strategic

and

dynamic

insights

with

integrated

liquidity

and

risk

management.

The

Board

considered

that

RIM

is

not

required

to

pay

Money

Manager

Fees

to

any

Money

Managers

with

respect

to

assets

for

which

it

provides

Direct

Management

Services

and

that

the

profits

derived

by

RIM

generally

and

from

the

Funds

consequently

may

be

increased,

although

RIM

noted

that

it

incurs

additional

costs

in

providing

Direct

Management

Services.

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

allocations,

or

increased

allocations,

of

Fund

assets

to

Direct

Management

Services,

together

with

Money

Manager

selection,

allocations

among

Money

Manager

strategies,

renegotiation

of

Money

Manager

Fees

and

changes

in

existing

Money

Manager

assignments

from

discretionary

to

non-discretionary

assignments

where

there

is

a

related

Money

Manager

Fee

reduction

may

reduce

its

costs

of

providing

investment

advisory

services

to

the

Funds,

which

would

benefit

RIM.

The

Board

considered

RIM's

advice

that

any

such

benefit,

including

any

increased

profits

to

RIM,

ultimately

may

be

partially

offset

by

the

impact

of

any

new

or

additional

fee

waivers

or

expense

caps

separately

agreed

upon

and

implemented

from

time

to

time

for

the

affected

Funds

and

any

costs

of

incremental

investments

or

increased

cost

allocations

that

RIM

may

incur

to

support

Direct

Management

Services.

The

Board

also

considered

information

provided

by

RIM

as

to

the

potential

benefits

of

the

Direct

Management

Services

to

the

Funds,

and

the

fact

that

the

aggregate

Advisory

Fees

paid

by

the

Funds

are

not

increased

as

a

result

of

RIM's

direct

management

of

Fund

assets

as

part

of

the

Direct

Management

Services

or

otherwise.

The

Board

noted

that

changes

in

the

allocation

of

assets

among

Money

Manager

strategies

or

to

Direct

Management

Services,

as

well

as

changes

in

the

allocation

of

affiliated

funds-of-funds'

assets

among

the

Funds,

may

result

directly

in

higher

related

costs

to

affected

Funds,

including

higher

brokerage

commissions

and

other

transaction

costs,

a

portion

of

which

is

paid

to

RIM's

affiliated

broker

in

connection

with

execution

of

portfolio

transactions

in

connection

with

such

changes.

RIM

advised

the

Board

that,

in

order

to

preserve

flexibility

and

to

manage

risks,

and

consistent

with

the

terms

of

the

manager-of-

managers

exemptive

order,

in

2019

RIM

created

Money

Manager

"bench"

lineups

for

certain

Funds,

whereby

those

Funds

have

Board-approved

portfolio

management

contracts

with

Money

Managers

that

are

not

funded

(i.e.,

have

an

asset

allocation

of

zero).

In

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

the

opportunity

to

decrease

a

Money

Manager's

allocation

to

zero,

but

not

terminate

the

Money

Manager,

allows

RIM

to

potentially

realize

gains

from

strategies

that

may

have

been

overly

rewarded

in

the

marketplace

over

the

short

to

medium

term,

or

provide

the

opportunity

to

retain

capacity

with

a

Money

Manager

that

may

otherwise

be

closed

to

new

business.

The

Board

noted

that

RIM

does

not

believe

there

are

any

detriments

to

the

Funds

or

RIM

from

the

use

of

a

Money

Manager

bench.

RIM

has

advised

the

Board

that

RIM

may

add

Money

Managers

to,

or

remove

Money

Managers

from,

a

Money

Manager

bench

lineup

for

Funds,

or

create

Money

Manager

bench

lineups

for

additional

Funds.

The

Agreement

Evaluation

Information

outlined

various

changes

that

have

been

implemented

in

the

investment

program

for

the

Funds

in

recent

years

and

described

additional

changes

that

have

been

implemented

or

are

underway,

and

the

impact

of

such

changes,

to

the

investment

advisory

services

provided

to

the

Funds

by

RIM,

which

the

Trustees

took

into

account

in

their

contract

renewal

deliberations,

including

the

following:

• The

Direct

Management

Services

described

above.

• Most

discretionary

Money

Manager

equity

assignments

were

previously

converted

to

non-discretionary

assignments,

thereby

implementing

emulation

for

those

Money

Manager

equity

assignments.

The

Board

considered

the

potential

impacts

described

in

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

both

positive

and

negative,

on

the

Funds

of

emulation.

RIM

noted

that,

in

implementing

emulation

for

most

equity

assignments

for

the

Funds,

it

assumes

various

additional

risks,

including

trade

error

risk

as

it

takes

over

responsibility

for

trading.

RIM

generally

effects

Fund

equity

portfolio

transactions

through

an

affiliated

broker

that

receives

a

portion

of

the

commissions

paid

by

the

Funds

for

effecting

some

of

these

transactions.

For

such

equity

transactions,

the

Funds

pay

RIM's

affiliated

broker

dealer

commission

rates

that

are

determined

by

an

oversight

committee

of

RIM.

According

to

RIM,

the

Funds

pay

the

same

commission

rates

regardless

of

whether

the

affiliated

broker

dealer

receives

any

portion

of

the

commission.

RIM

noted

certain

enhancements

in

recent

years

to

the

emulation

process,

including

increasing

the

frequency

of

receipt

of

certain

Money

Manager

model

portfolios,

the

utilization

of

a

risk-based

dashboard

and

model

liquidity

monitoring.

While

RIM

generally

implements

Money

equity

strategies

via

emulation,

RIM

has

determined

and

may

determine

that

certain

Money

Manager

equity

strategies

should

be

implemented

by

Money

Managers

on

a

discretionary

basis.

• RIM

has

renegotiated

fees

with

certain

Money

Managers

to

lower

levels

and

advised

the

Board

that

it

will

continue

to

assess

opportunities

for

Money

Manager

Fee

reductions

in

the

future.

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

it

has

not

experienced,

and

does

not

expect

to

experience,

any

diminution

in

the

nature,

scope

or

quality

of

services

provided

by

Money

Managers

as

a

result

of

renegotiated

Money

Manager

Fees.

• Benchmark

changes

for

certain

Funds

to

comply

with

new

SEC

regulations.

In

evaluating

the

Funds'

Advisory

Fees

and

Management

Fees,

the

Board

considered

that,

in

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information

and

at

past

meetings,

RIM

noted

differences

between

the

investment

strategies

of

certain

Funds

and

their

respective

Comparable

Funds

in

pursuing

their

investment

objectives.

To

assist

the

Board's

evaluation

of

the

Advisory

Fees,

Management

Fees

and

total

expenses

of

the

Funds,

RIM

provided

comparisons

and

discussion

of

the

Management

Fees

and

total

expenses

of

each

Fund

on

an

adjusted

basis

to

reflect

the

annualized

impact

of

advisory

fee

waivers

and

expense

caps,

as

applicable,

that

were

implemented

in

2024

relative

to

the

management

fees

and

total

expenses

of

such

Fund's

Comparable

Funds

included

in

the

Third-Party

Information

(the

"Annualized

Information").

The

Annualized

Information

included,

among

other

things,

comparisons

of

the

Funds'

Management

Fees

with

the

management

fees

of

their

Comparable

Funds

on

an

actual

basis

(i.e.,

giving

effect

to

any

fee

waivers

and/or

expense

caps

implemented

by

RIM

with

respect

to

a

Fund

and

by

the

managers

of

such

Fund's

Comparable

Funds).

The

Annualized

Information

showed,

among

other

things,

that

each

Fund

had

a

Management

Fee

which,

compared

with

the

management

fees

of

its

respective

Comparable

Funds

on

an

actual

basis,

was

ranked

in

the

fifth

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe

for

that

expense

component.

In

these

rankings,

the

first

quintile

represents

funds

with

the

lowest

management

fees

among

funds

in

the

Expense

Universe,

and

the

fifth

quintile

represents

funds

with

the

highest

management

fees

among

funds

in

the

Expense

Universe.

The

comparisons

were

based

upon

the

latest

fiscal

years

for

the

Expense

Universe

funds.

The

Funds

are

distributed

exclusively

to

holders

of

variable

annuity

and

variable

life

insurance

contracts

issued

by

insurance

companies

("Insurance

Contract

Holders").

Among

other

things,

RIM

previously

noted

that

meaningful

comparisons

of

management

fees

between

funds

affiliated

with

insurance

companies

issuing

variable

annuity

and

life

insurance

policies

to

Insurance

Contract

Holders

and

funds

that

are

not

affiliated

with

such

insurance

companies,

such

as

the

Funds,

are

difficult

as

insurance

companies

have

flexibility

to

allocate

certain

fees

between

the

variable

annuity

and

variable

life

insurance

contracts

held

by

Insurance

Contract

Holders

and

the

affiliated

underlying

funds.

RIM

also

noted

the

administrative

services

provided

by

an

insurance

company

to

Insurance

Contract

Holders

invested

in

the

Funds

and

the

costs

associated

with

the

provision

of

such

administrative

services.

RIM

explained

that

these

administrative

services

benefit

these

Funds'

Insurance

Contract

Holders

and

are

necessary

for

the

operation

of

the

Funds.

In

discussing

the

Funds'

Management

Fees

generally,

RIM

noted,

among

other

things,

that

its

Management

Fees

for

the

Funds

encompass

services

that

are

typical

to

services

provided

by

investment

advisers

to

the

Funds'

Comparable

Funds,

as

well

as

transition

management

services

that

enable

efficient

and

cost-effective

asset

transition

events

and

the

administration

of

a

cash

equitization

program.

RIM

also

advised

the

Board

that

its

pre-tax

profit

margin

from

its

relationships

with

the

Funds

increased

slightly

in

2024,

and

RIM's

2024

pre-tax

profit

margin

in

providing

investment

advisory

services

to

the

Funds

is

higher

than

the

median

of

the

operating

profit

margins

of

public

investment

management

company

peers

(in

each

case,

including

sales

and

client

service

expenses)

based

on

a

survey

conducted

as

of

September

30,

2024,

reflecting

the

prior

months.

The

Board

considered

each

Fund's

Advisory

Fee

and

Management

Fee

on

both

a

standalone

basis

and

in

the

context

of

the

Fund's

total

expense

ratio.

The

Board

also

considers

the

various

expense

components,

other

than

the

Advisory

Fee

and

Management

Fee,

that

comprise

each

Fund's

total

expense

ratio,

and

the

extent

to

which

such

components

contribute

to

each

with

the

Management

Fees

and

total

ratios

of

the

Funds

relative

to

their

respective

Comparable

Funds,

including

the

fee

waivers

or

expense

RIM

had

previously

implemented

and

agreed

to

implement

in

the

future

to

reduce

Management

Fees

and/or

total

expenses

for

certain

Funds,

and

Comparable

Fund

fee

and

expense

trending

year-over-year.

Based

on

that

review

and

discussions

with

RIM,

including

discussions

with

RIM

regarding

the

reasonableness

of

various

components

of

certain

Funds'

total

expense

ratio

other

than

its

Management

Fee,

the

Independent

Trustees

will

continue

to

evaluate

and

engage

in

ongoing

discussions

with

management

regarding

Management

Fee

and

total

expense

comparisons.

The

Board

considered

RIM's

explanation

of

the

reasons

for

each

Fund's

actual

Management

Fee

rankings.

RIM

expressed

its

belief

that

each

Fund's

Management

Fee

was

fair

and

reasonable

notwithstanding

the

Annualized

Information

comparisons

based

on,

and

as

discussed

in,

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information.

With

respect

to

the

U.S.

Strategic

Equity

Fund,

the

Board

considered

that

the

Fund's

total

expenses

ranked

in

the

third

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe.

With

respect

to

the

U.S.

Small

Cap

Equity

Fund,

the

Board

considered

that,

after

considering

a

request

from

the

Independent

Trustees,

RIM

agreed

to

decrease

the

fund-level

expense

cap

for

the

Fund

in

two

phases

that,

while

in

effect,

would

have

a

beneficial

effect

on

comparisons

of

the

Fund's

Management

Fee

relative

to

the

management

fees

of

its

Comparable

Funds.

The

Board

further

considered

that

the

Fund's

total

expenses

ranked

in

the

third

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe.

With

respect

to

the

International

Developed

Markets

Fund,

the

Board

considered

that,

after

considering

a

request

from

the

Independent

Trustees,

RIM

agreed

to

increase

the

advisory

fee

waiver

for

the

Fund

in

two

phases

that,

while

in

effect,

would

have

a

beneficial

effect

on

comparisons

of

the

Fund's

Management

Fee

relative

to

the

management

fees

of

its

Comparable

Funds.

RIM

noted

that

it

does

not

agree

with

the

Fund's

Expense

Universe

categorization

and

requested

that

the

Third-Party

Information

also

include

a

custom

Expense

Universe

that

RIM

believes

is

a

more

appropriate

comparison.

The

Board

noted

that

the

Fund's

total

expenses

ranked

more

favorably

against

the

custom

Expense

Universe,

and

considered

the

small

variance

of

the

Fund's

total

expenses

to

the

third

quintile

of

its

custom

Expense

Universe.

In

considering

the

Fund's

Management

Fee

rankings,

the

Board

took

account

of

the

Fund's

favorable

3-

and

5-year

performance

rankings

relative

to

the

constituents

of

its

custom

Performance

Universe.

With

respect

to

the

Strategic

Bond

Fund,

the

Board

considered

that,

after

considering

a

request

from

the

Independent

Trustees,

RIM

agreed

to

implement

an

Advisory

Fee

waiver

for

the

Fund

in

2024. The

Board

further

considered

that

the

Fund's

total

expenses

ranked

in

the

third

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe.

With

respect

to

the

Global

Real

Estate

Securities

Fund,

the

Board

considered

that

the

Fund's

total

expenses

ranked

in

the

second

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe.

Based

upon

information

provided

by

RIM,

the

Board

considered

for

each

Fund

whether

economies

of

scale

have

been

realized

and

whether

the

Advisory

Fee

for

such

Fund

appropriately

reflects

or

should

be

revised

to

reflect

any

such

economies.

The

Board

considered,

among

other

things,

the

variability

of

Money

Manager

Fees

and

other

factors

associated

with

the

manager-of-managers

structure

employed

by

the

Funds,

as

well

as

net

Fund

redemptions

or

purchases

in

recent

years.

With

respect

to

each

Fund,

the

Board

considered

any

Advisory

Fee

waivers

or

expense

caps

that

had

been

implemented

in

the

past

year

and

those

proposed

to

be

implemented

in

the

future.

The

Funds

are

primarily

distributed

through,

and

their

assets

are

primarily

attributed

to,

The

Northwestern

Mutual

Life

Insurance

Company

("Northwestern

Mutual").

The

Funds

continue

to

experience

outflows;

however,

RIM

advised

the

Board

there

is

regular

contact

with

Northwestern

Mutual

in

order

to

maintain

product

availability

and

continue

efforts

to

grow

the

product

line.

RIM

expressed

its

belief

that

Northwestern

Mutual

is

still

committed

to

the

Funds.

However,

the

Board

has

received

no

direct

assurances

in

this

regard

from

Northwestern

Mutual.

If

Northwestern

Mutual

were

to

discontinue

its

participation

in

the

Funds,

the

Board

considered

that

it

is

unlikely

that

the

Funds

would

remain

viable.

RIM

previously

expressed

its

belief

that

the

Funds

will

remain

viable

in

the

near

term,

and

the

Board

was

not

advised

of

any

change

in

RIM's

belief

in

this

regard.

The

Board

considered,

among

other

things,

the

potential

negative

implications

for

significant

future

Fund

asset

growth

if

additional

insurance

companies

do

not

make

the

Funds

available

to

their

variable

annuity

and

variable

life

insurance

policyholders.

The

Board

also

considered

that

the

advisory

fee

rates

payable

to

RIM

by

Other

RIM

Funds

and

fee

rates

payable

to

RIM

or

its

affiliates

by

other

registered

investment

companies

and

by

institutional

clients

with

investment

objectives

similar

to

those

of

the

Funds

in

some

cases

are

lower

than

the

advisory

fee

rates

paid

by

the

Funds.

The

Trustees

considered

RIM's

explanation

that

the

advisory

fees

payable

to

RIM

by

the

Funds

and

the

Other

RIM

Funds

reflect,

among

other

things,

differences

in

the

type

of

product,

distribution

channel

and

investors.

The

Trustees

also

considered

the

differences

in

the

nature

and

scope

of

services

RIM

provides

to

other

registered

investment

companies

and

institutional

clients

relative

to

those

provided

to

the

Funds.

With

respect

to

institutional

clients,

RIM

explained,

among

other

things,

that

institutional

products

have

fewer

compliance,

administrative,

client

servicing/

communication

and

other

needs

than

the

Funds.

RIM

also

noted

that

due

to

the

number

and

nature

of

investors,

along

with

their

varied

needs

for

liquidity,

there

is

more

portfolio

liquidity

management

and

cash

flow

management

required

for

the

Funds

than

for

RIM's

or

its

affiliates'

institutional

clients,

where

assets

are

relatively

stable.

In

addition,

RIM

noted

that

the

Funds

are

subject

to

heightened

regulatory

requirements

relative

to

institutional

clients.

Accordingly,

the

Trustees

concluded

that

the

services

provided

to

the

Funds

are

sufficiently

different

from

the

services

provided

to

such

institutional

clients

that

comparisons

are

not

probative

and

should

not

be

given

significant

weight.

With

respect

to

the

Funds'

total

expenses,

the

Annualized

Information

showed

that

the

total

expenses

for

the

International

Developed

Markets

Fund

were

ranked

in

the

fourth

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe,

the

total

expenses

for

the

U.S.

Strategic

Equity

Fund,

U.S.

Small

Cap

Equity

Fund

and

Strategic

Bond

Fund

were

each

ranked

in

the

third

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe,

and

the

total

expenses

for

the

Global

Real

Estate

Securities

Fund

were

ranked

in

the

second

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe.

In

these

rankings,

the

first

quintile

represents

the

funds

with

the

lowest

total

expenses

among

funds

in

the

Expense

Universe

and

the

fifth

quintile

represents

funds

with

the

highest

total

among

the

funds.

With

respect

to

the

the

considered

that,

The

noted

that

was

fair

reasonable

notwithstanding

the

the

On

the

basis

of

the

Agreement

Information,

and

other

information

previously

received

by

the

Board

from

RIM

during

the

course

of

the

year

and

prior

years,

or

presented

at

or

in

connection

with

the

by

its

the

Board,

in

respect

of

each

Fund,

after

giving

effect

to

any

applicable

fee

waivers

or

expense

caps

and

in

light

of

other

factors

discussed

above:

(1) found

that

the

Advisory

Fee

and

Administrative

Fee

were

acceptable

in

light

of

the

nature,

scope

and

overall

quality

of

the

investment

advisory

and

other

services

provided,

and

expected

to

be

provided,

to

the

Fund

and

to

provide

continuity

of

investment

advisory

and

other

services

by

RIM

and

its

affiliates

to

the

Fund;

(2) either

found

that

the

relative

expense

ratio

of

the

Fund

was

comparable

to

those

of

its

Comparable

Funds

or

took

into

account

the

factors

noted

above

in

considering

the

relative

expense

ratio

as

compared

to

those

of

its

Comparable

Funds;

(3) found

that

the

other

benefits

and

fees

received

by

RIM

or

its

affiliates

from

the

Fund

identified

in

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information

were

not

considered

to

be

excessive;

(4) found

that

RIM's

reported

profitability

with

respect

to

the

Fund

was

not

considered

to

be

excessive

in

light

of

the

nature,

scope

and

overall

quality

of

the

investment

management

and

other

services

provided

by

RIM

and

applicable

judicial

and

regulatory

guidance;

and

(5) found

that

the

Advisory

Fee

charged

by

RIM

appropriately

reflects

any

economies

of

scale

realized

by

such

Fund

in

light

of

various

factors,

including

potential

negative

implications

for

significant

future

Fund

asset

growth

if

additional

insurance

companies

do

not

make

the

Funds

available

to

their

Holders;

the

variability

of

Money

Manager

Fees

and

other

factors

associated

with

the

manager-of-managers

structure

employed

by

the

Funds;

and

RIM's

advice

that

it

does

not

believe

it

will

experience

meaningful

economies

of

scale.

The

Board

concluded

that,

under

the

circumstances

and

based

on

RIM's

performance

information

and

reviews

for

each

Fund,

the

performance

of

each

of

the

Funds

supported

the

continuation

of

the

RIM

Agreement.

In

assessing

the

performance

of

the

Funds,

the

Board

focused

on

each

Fund's

performance

for

the

3-year

period

ended

December

31,

2024

as

most

relevant

but

also

considered

Fund

performance

for

the

1-

and

5-year

periods

ended

on

such

date.

In

reviewing

the

Funds'

performance

generally,

the

Board

took

into

consideration

various

steps

taken

by

RIM

in

the

past

few

years

to

enhance

the

performance

of

certain

Funds,

including

or

expansion

of

its

Direct

Management

Services

and

other

strategies,

which

may

not

yet

be

fully

reflected

in

Fund

investment

results.

With

respect

to

the

U.S.

Strategic

Equity

Fund,

the

Third-Party

Information

showed

that

the

Fund's

performance

was

ranked

in

the

fifth

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

for

the

3-year

period

ended

December

31,

2024,

and

was

ranked

in

the

fourth

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

for

each

of

the

1-and

5-year

periods

ended

on

such

date.

For

the

3-year

period,

RIM

noted

that

the

Fund's

tilt

toward

stocks

with

cheaper

valuation

ratios

and

smaller

market

capitalization

characteristics

relative

to

its

Comparable

Funds

was

a

headwind,

as

the

most

expensive

and

largest

market

capitalization

stocks

notably

outperformed

within

the

U.S.

large

cap

market.

RIM

further

noted

that

the

Fund's

peer

relative

sector

positioning

had

a

positive

impact

overall,

with

an

overweight

to

the

outperforming

information

technology

sector

and

an

underweight

to

the

underperforming

real

estate

sector

adding

to

fund

performance,

while

an

overweight

to

the

underperforming

consumer

discretionary

sector

detracted

slightly.

The

Board

considered

that

the

changes

to

certain

Money

Managers

and

changes

in

allocations

among

Money

Managers

and

RIM's

Direct

Management

Services

that

were

implemented

in

2022

have

contributed

positively

to

the

Fund's

performance.

With

respect

to

the

Strategic

Bond

Fund,

the

Third-Party

Information

showed

that

the

Fund's

performance

was

ranked

in

the

fifth

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

for

each

of

the

1-,

3-

and

5-year

periods

ended

December

31,

2024. RIM

noted

that

the

Fund's

relative

overweight

to

interest

rate

risk

detracted

from

performance

in

2022,

when

interest

rates

increased,

while

the

Fund's

higher

quality

credit

profile

partially

offset

2022's

negative

relative

performance.

RIM

also

noted

that

in

2023

and

2024,

the

Fund

maintained

an

overweight

duration

position

compared

to

its

Comparable

Funds,

which

hurt

relative

performance

in

an

environment

where

interest

rates

rose,

and

had

less

securitized

credit

exposure

relative

to

its

Comparable

Funds,

which

was

a

slight

drag

on

performance.

The

Board

considered

that

a

Money

Manager

change

made

in

2024

has

contributed

positively

to

the

Fund's

performance.

With

respect

to

the

Global

Real

Estate

Securities

Fund,

the

Third-Party

Information

showed

that

the

Fund's

performance

was

ranked

in

the

fourth

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

for

each

of

the

3-

and

5-year

periods

ended

December

31,

2024,

and

was

ranked

in

the

first

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

for

the

1-year

period

ended

on

such

date.

RIM

noted

that

the

Fund's

Performance

Universe

includes

a

number

of

constituents

with

strategies

that

are

notably

different

from

the

Fund's

global

real

estate

focus,

including

regionally

focused

real

estate

strategies

with

performance

patterns

that

significantly

diverge

from

that

of

the

Fund,

and

a

number

of

constituents

that

are

benchmarked

to

different

indexes

than

the

Fund's

benchmark

index,

leading

to

persistent

structural

differences

with

respect

to

sector

and

regional

exposures.

The

performance

of

each

of

the

other

Funds

ranked

in

the

third

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

or

better

for

the

3-year

period

ended

December

31,

2024. In

evaluating

performance,

the

Board

considered

each

Fund's

performance

not

only

relative

to

its

Comparable

Funds,

but

also

in

absolute

terms

and

relative

to

its

benchmark.

The

Board

considered

the

Funds'

performance

relative

to

their

primary

benchmarks

in

light

of

RIM's

advice

that

its

investment

philosophy

and

process

seek

to

combine

investment

managers

to

produce

benchmark-

beating

returns

with

above-average

consistency.

For

the

1-year

period

ended

December

31,

2024,

the

Global

Real

Estate

Securities

Fund

outperformed

its

benchmark;

for

the

3-year

period

ended

December

31,

2024,

none

of

the

Funds

outperformed

their

respective

benchmarks;

and

for

the

5-year

period

ended

December

31,

2024,

the

U.S.

Small

Cap

Equity

Fund

and

Global

Real

Estate

Securities

Fund

outperformed

their

respective

benchmarks.

The

Board

also

considered

the

Money

Manager

changes

that

have

been

made

during

the

past

year

and

that

the

performance

of

Money

Managers

continues

to

impact

Fund

performance

for

periods

prior

and

subsequent

to

their

termination.

After

considering

the

foregoing

and

other

relevant

factors,

including

factors

described

above,

the

Board

concluded

in

respect

of

each

Fund

that

continuation

of

the

RIM

Agreement

would

be

in

the

best

interest

of

such

Fund

and

its

shareholders

and

voted

to

approve

the

continuation

of

the

RIM

Agreement.

At

the

Agreement

Information

Review

Meeting

and

Agreement

Evaluation

Meeting,

with

respect

to

the

evaluation

of

the

terms

of

portfolio

management

contracts

with

Money

Managers,

the

Board

received

and

considered

information

from

RIM

reporting,

among

other

things,

for

each

Money

Manager:

the

Money

Manager's

performance

over

various

periods;

RIM's

assessment

of

the

performance

of

each

Money

any

significant

business

relationships

between

the

Money

Manager

and

RIM

or

the

underwriter;

and

RIM's

recommendation

to

retain

each

on

the

current

terms

and

conditions,

including

at

the

current

(Unaudited)

Basis

for

Approval

of

Investment

Advisory

Agreement

during

the

course

of

the

year

from

the

Funds'

CCO

regarding

her

assessments

of

Money

Manager

compliance

programs

and

any

compliance

issues.

RIM

did

not

identify

any

benefits

from

the

Funds'

portfolio

transactions

received

by

Money

Managers

or

their

affiliates

other

than

potential

benefits

from

soft

dollar

arrangements

or

commissions

paid

to

any

affiliated

broker-dealer

through

which

a

discretionary

Money

Manager

may

execute

trades.

RIM

recommended

that

each

of

the

Money

Managers

be

retained

for

its

current

discretionary

or

non-discretionary

assignment

at

its

current

fee

rate.

In

doing

so,

RIM,

as

it

has

in

the

past,

advised

the

Board

that

it

does

not

regard

Money

Manager

profitability

or

economies

of

scale

as

relevant

to

its

evaluation

of

the

portfolio

management

contracts

with

Money

Managers

because

the

willingness

of

Money

Managers

to

serve

in

such

capacity

depends

upon

arm's-length

negotiations

with

RIM;

RIM

is

aware

of

the

standard

fee

rates

charged

by

Money

Managers

to

other

clients;

and

RIM

believes

that

the

fees

agreed

upon

with

Money

Managers

are

reasonable

and

appropriate

in

light

of

the

anticipated

quality

of

investment

advisory

services

to

be

rendered.

The

Board

accepted

RIM's

explanation

of

the

relevance

of

Money

Manager

profitability

in

light

of

RIM's

belief

that

such

fees

are

reasonable;

the

Board's

findings

as

to

the

acceptability

of

the

Advisory

Fee

paid

by

each

Fund;

and

the

fact

that

each

Money

Manager's

fee

is

paid

by

RIM.

Based

upon

RIM's

recommendations,

together

with

relevant

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

the

Board

concluded

that

the

fees

paid

to

the

Money

Managers

of

each

Fund

are

acceptable

in

light

of

RIM's

assessment

of

the

quality

of

the

investment

advisory

services

provided

and

that

continuation

of

the

portfolio

management

contract

with

each

Money

Manager

of

each

Fund

would

be

in

the

best

interests

of

the

Fund

and

its

shareholders.

This

discussion

is

not

intended

to

include

all

of

the

factors

and

information

considered

by

the

Board.

In

their

deliberations,

the

Trustees

did

not

identify

any

particular

information

as

to

the

RIM

Agreement

or,

other

than

RIM's

recommendation,

the

portfolio

management

contract

with

any

Money

Manager

that

was

all-important

or

controlling,

except,

in

the

case

of

the

RIM

Agreement,

the

need

to

continue

the

managers-of-managers

structure

of

the

Funds,

and

each

Trustee

attributed

different

weights

to

the

various

factors

considered.

The

Trustees

evaluated

all

information

available

to

them

on

a

Fund-by-Fund

basis

and

their

determinations

were

made

in

respect

of

each

Fund.

#### Quarterly

#### Approval

#### of

#### Money

#### Manager

#### Contracts
At

a

special

Board

meeting

held

on

February

25,

2025,

the

Board

received

a

proposal

from

RIM

to

approve

a

new

portfolio

management

contract

for

the

U.S.

Small

Cap

Equity

Fund.

The

Trustees

approved

the

terms

of

the

proposed

new

portfolio

management

contract

based

upon

their

consideration

of,

among

other

information,

RIM's

recommendation

to

hire

the

Money

Manager

at

the

proposed

fee

rate;

information

as

to

the

reason

for

the

proposed

Money

Manager

hire;

information

as

to

the

Money

Manager's

role

in

the

management

of

the

Fund's

investment

portfolio

(including

the

amount

of

Fund

assets

to

be

allocated

to

the

Money

Manager

or

managed

pursuant

to

the

Money

Manager's

strategy);

RIM's

evaluation

of

the

anticipated

quality

of

the

investment

advisory

services

to

be

provided

by

the

Money

Manager;

performance

information

for

the

new

Money

Manager;

information

as

to

any

significant

business

relationships

between

the

Money

Manager

and

RIM

or

Russell

Investments

Financial

Services,

LLC,

the

Fund's

underwriter

("RIFIS");

the

CCO's

current

or

prior

evaluation

of

the

Money

Manager's

compliance

program,

policies

and

procedures

in

relation

to

the

Money

Manager's

role

in

the

management

of

the

Fund's

investment

portfolio,

and

current

or

prior

certification

that

they

were

consistent

with

applicable

legal

standards;

RIM's

explanation

as

to

the

lack

of

relevance

of

Money

Manager

profitability

to

the

evaluation

of

portfolio

management

contracts

with

Money

Managers

because

the

willingness

of

Money

Managers

to

serve

in

such

capacity

depends

upon

arm's-length

negotiations

with

RIM;

RIM's

awareness

of

the

standard

fee

rates

charged

by

the

Money

Manager

to

other

clients;

RIM's

belief

that

the

proposed

Money

Manager

fees

would

be

reasonable

in

light

of

the

anticipated

quality

of

investment

advisory

services

to

be

rendered;

the

increase

or

decrease

in

aggregate

Money

Manager

fees

to

be

paid

by

RIM

from

its

advisory

fee

as

a

result

of

the

engagement

of

the

Money

Manager;

and

the

expected

costs,

if

any,

of

transitioning

Fund

assets

to

the

Money

Manager

or

its

strategy.

The

Trustees'

approvals

also

reflected

their

findings

at

prior

meetings,

including

their

May

20,

2024

meeting,

in

connection

with

their

evaluation

and

approval

of

the

Funds'

existing

investment

advisory

agreement

with

RIM

and

portfolio

management

contracts

with

then-current

Money

Managers

for

the

as

well

as

received

throughout

the

course

of

the

regarding,

among

other

things,

the

quality

of

services

provided

to

the

Funds

in

the

case

of

the

existing

Money

Managers

and

the

reasonableness

of

the

aggregate

investment

advisory

fees

paid

by

the

as

referred

to

as

on

four

of

these

funds

(each

a

"Fund"

and

collectively

The

Investment

Company

provides

the

investment

base

for

one

or

more

variable

insurance

products

issued

by

one

or

companies.

These

Funds

are

offered

at

net

value

("NAV")

to

qualified

insurance

company

separate

accounts

offering

variable

products.

The

Investment

Company

is

registered

under

the

Investment

Company

Act

of

1940,

as

amended

("Investment

Company

Act"),

as

an

open-end

investment

company.

It

is

organized

and

operated

as

a

Massachusetts

business

under

a

Third

Amended

and

Restated

Master

Trust

Agreement

dated

December

2020,

as

amended

("Master

Trust

Agreement"),

and

the

provisions

of

Massachusetts

law

governing

the

operation

of

a

Massachusetts

business

trust.

The

Investment

Company's

Master

Trust

Agreement

permits

the

Board

of

Trustees

(the

"Board")

to

issue

an

unlimited

number

of

shares

of

beneficial

interest.

Each

of

the

Funds

is

diversified.

Under

the

Investment

Company

Act,

a

diversified

company

is

defined

as

a

management

company

which

meets

the

following

requirements:

at

least

75%

of

the

value

of

its

total

assets

is

represented

by

cash

and

cash

equivalents

(including

receivables),

government

securities,

securities

of

other

investment

companies,

and

other

securities

for

the

purposes

of

this

calculation

limited

in

respect

of

any

one

issuer

to

an

amount

not

greater

in

value

than

five

percent

of

the

value

of

the

total

assets

of

such

management

company

and

to

not

more

than

10%

of

the

outstanding

voting

of

such

issuer.

Unless

otherwise

specified,

"period"

(as

used

within

the

financial

statements)

refers

to

the

six

months

ended

June

30,

2025. Each

of

the

Funds

listed

in

the

table

below

is

a

"fund

of

funds"

and

diversifies

its

assets

by

investing

in

shares

of

several

other

RIF

funds

and

in

certain

Russell

Investment

Company

("RIC")

funds

(the

"Underlying

Funds").

These

financial

statements

should

be

read

in

conjunction

with

the

financial

statements

of

the

Underlying

Funds,

which

can

be

obtained

by

calling

the

Funds

at

(800) 787-7354.

Each

Fund

seeks

to

achieve

its

specific

investment

objective

by

investing

in

different

combinations

of

Underlying

Funds.

The

following

table

shows

each

Fund's

approximate

target

strategic

asset

allocation

to

equity,

fixed

income,

multi-asset

and

alternative

asset

classes

as

of

June

in

which

the

include

the

RIC

Funds.

Each

Fund

intends

its

strategy

of

investing

in

combinations

of

equity,

fixed

income,

multi-asset

and

alternative

Underlying

Funds

to

result

in

investment

diversification

that

an

investor

could

otherwise

achieve

only

by

holding

numerous

individual

investments.

Russell

Investment

Management,

LLC

("RIM"),

the

Funds'

investment

adviser,

may

modify

the

target

strategic

asset

allocation

for

any

Fund,

including

changes

to

the

Underlying

Funds

in

which

a

Fund

invests,

from

time

to

time.

RIM's

allocation

decisions

are

generally

based

on

RIM's

outlook

on

the

business

and

economic

cycle,

relative

market

valuations

and

market

sentiment.

RIM

may

change

a

Fund's

target

strategic

asset

allocation

by

up

to

+/-5%

at

the

equity,

fixed

income,

multi-asset

or

alternative

asset

class

level

based

on

RIM's

capital

markets

research.

A

Fund's

actual

allocation

may

vary

from

the

target

strategic

asset

allocation

at

any

point

in

time

due

to

market

movements

and/

or

due

to

the

implementation

over

a

period

of

time

of

a

change

to

the

target

strategic

asset

allocation

including

the

addition

of

a

new

Underlying

Fund.

A

Fund's

target

strategic

asset

allocation

and

the

Underlying

Funds

in

which

a

Fund

may

invest

may

be

changed

from

time

to

time

without

shareholder

notice

or

approval.

\*

As

described

above,

actual

asset

allocation

may

vary.

#### Accounting

#### Policies
The

Funds'

financial

statements

are

prepared

in

accordance

with

U.S.

generally

accepted

accounting

principles

("U.S.

GAAP")

which

require

the

use

of

management

estimates

and

assumptions

at

the

date

of

the

financial

statements.

Actual

results

could

differ

from

those

estimates.

The

Funds

are

considered

investment

companies

under

U.S.

GAAP

and

follow

the

accounting

and

reporting

guidance

applicable

to

investment

companies.

The

following

is

a

summary

of

the

significant

accounting

policies

consistently

followed

by

each

Fund

in

the

preparation

of

its

financial

statements.

Segment

Reporting

Topic

defines

an

operating

segment

as

a

component

of

a

public

entity

that

engages

in

business

activities

from

which

it

may

recognize

revenues

and

incur

expenses

and

has

operating

results

that

are

regularly

reviewed

by

its

chief

operating

decision

maker

("CODM")

to

assess

performance

and

make

resource

allocation

decisions.

The

Funds'

adviser,

RIM,

serves

as

the

CODM.

Since

RIM

evaluates

each

Fund

holistically,

each

Fund

is

a

single

reporting

segment.

RIM

uses

total

returns,

Fund

expense

information,

and

share

transactions

presented

in

the

Funds'

financial

statements

to

assess

the

single

segment

performance

and

make

decisions.

The

accounting

policies

of

the

segment

are

the

same

as

those

described

in

this

"Significant

Accounting

Policies"

note.

Segment

assets

and

significant

expenses

are

reflected

in

each

Funds'

Statement

of

Assets

and

Liabilities

and

of

Operations,

respectively.

Recent

Accounting

Pronouncements

In

December

2023,

the

FASB

issued

Accounting

Standards

Update

("ASU"),

ASU

2023-09,

Improvements

to

Income

Tax

Disclosures,

which

amends

quantitative

and

qualitative

income

tax

disclosure

requirements

to

increase

disclosure

consistency,

bifurcate

income

tax

information

by

jurisdiction

and

remove

information

that

is

no

longer

beneficial.

The

ASU

is

effective

for

annual

periods

beginning

after

December

15,

2024,

and

early

adoption

is

permitted.

At

this

time,

management

is

evaluating

the

implications

of

these

changes

on

the

financial

statements.

Security

Valuation

The

Underlying

Funds

value

portfolio

instruments

according

to

securities

valuation

procedures,

which

include

market

value

procedures,

fair

value

procedures,

other

key

valuation

procedures

and

a

description

of

the

pricing

sources

and

services

used

by

the

Underlying

Funds.

With

respect

to

an

Underlying

Fund's

investments

that

do

not

have

readily

available

market

quotations,

the

Board

has

designated

RIM,

the

Underlying

Funds'

adviser,

as

the

valuation

designee

to

perform

fair

valuations

pursuant

to

Rule

2a-5

under

the

Investment

Company

Act.

However,

the

Board

retains

oversight

over

the

valuation

process.

The

Funds

value

the

shares

of

the

Underlying

Funds

at

the

current

NAV

per

share

of

each

Underlying

Fund.

The

Funds

have

adopted

the

authoritative

guidance

under

U.S.

GAAP

for

estimating

the

fair

value

of

investments

in

funds

that

have

calculated

NAV

per

share

in

accordance

with

the

specialized

accounting

guidance

for

investment

companies.

Accordingly,

the

Funds

estimate

the

fair

value

of

an

investment

in

a

fund

using

the

NAV

per

share

without

further

adjustment

as

a

practical

expedient,

if

the

NAV

per

share

of

the

investment

is

determined

in

accordance

with

the

specialized

accounting

guidance

for

investment

companies

as

of

the

reporting

entity's

measurement

date.

U.S.

GAAP

defines

fair

value

as

the

price

that

a

Fund

would

receive

to

sell

an

asset

or

pay

to

transfer

a

liability

in

an

orderly

transaction

between

market

participants

at

the

measurement

date.

It

establishes

a

fair

value

hierarchy

that

prioritizes

inputs

to

valuation

methods,

requires

a

separate

disclosure

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

for

each

major

category

of

assets

and

liabilities,

and

segregates

fair

value

measurements

into

levels

(Level

1,

2,

and

3).

The

inputs

or

methodology

used

for

valuing

securities

are

not

necessarily

an

indication

of

the

risk

associated

with

investing

in

those

securities.

Levels

1,

and

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

are

defined

as

follows:

• Level

—

Quoted

prices

(unadjusted)

in

active

markets

or

exchanges

for

identical

assets

and

liabilities.

• Level

—

Inputs

other

than

quoted

prices

included

within

Level

that

are

observable,

which

may

include,

but

are

not

limited

to,

quoted

prices

for

similar

assets

or

liabilities

in

markets

that

are

active,

quoted

prices

for

identical

or

similar

assets

or

liabilities

in

markets

that

are

not

active,

and

inputs

such

as

interest

rates,

yield

curves,

implied

volatilities,

credit

spreads

or

other

market

corroborated

inputs.

• Level

—

Significant

unobservable

inputs

based

on

the

best

information

available

in

the

circumstances,

to

the

extent

observable

inputs

are

not

available,

which

may

include

assumptions

made

by

RIM

that

are

used

in

determining

the

fair

value

of

investments.

(Unaudited)

Notes

to

Financial

Statements

The

availability

of

observable

inputs

can

vary

from

security

to

security

and

is

affected

by

a

wide

variety

of

factors,

including,

for

example,

the

type

of

security,

whether

the

security

is

new

and

not

yet

established

in

the

marketplace,

the

liquidity

of

markets,

and

other

characteristics

particular

to

the

security.

To

the

extent

that

valuation

is

based

on

models

or

inputs

that

are

less

observable

or

unobservable

in

the

market,

the

determination

of

fair

value

requires

more

judgment.

Accordingly,

the

degree

of

judgment

exercised

in

determining

fair

value

is

greatest

for

instruments

categorized

in

Level

3. The

inputs

used

to

measure

fair

value

may

fall

into

different

levels

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

In

such

cases,

for

disclosure

purposes,

the

level

in

the

fair

value

hierarchy

within

which

the

fair

value

measurement

falls

is

determined

based

on

the

lowest

level

input

that

is

significant

to

the

fair

value

measurement

in

its

entirety.

The

valuation

techniques

and

significant

inputs

used

in

determining

the

fair

market

values

of

financial

instruments

categorized

as

Level

and

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

are

as

follows:

Equity

securities,

including

common

and

preferred

stock,

short

securities,

registered

open-end

investment

companies,

ETFs

and

restricted

securities

that

are

traded

on

a

national

securities

exchange

(or

reported

on

the

NASDAQ

national

market),

are

stated

at

the

last

reported

sales

price

on

the

day

of

valuation

or

official

closing

price,

as

applicable.

To

the

extent

these

securities

are

actively

traded,

and

valuation

adjustments

are

not

applied,

they

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Investments

in

investment

funds

that

are

not

traded

on

a

national

securities

exchange

(or

reported

on

the

NASDAQ

national

market)

will

be

valued

based

upon

the

NAV

of

such

investments

without

further

adjustment

as

a

practical

expedient.

As

of

June

30,

2025,

all

investments

held

were

classified

as

Level

within

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Investment

Transactions

Investment

transactions

are

reflected

as

of

the

trade

date

for

financial

reporting

purposes.

This

may

cause

the

NAV

stated

in

the

financial

statements

to

be

different

from

the

NAV

at

which

shareholders

may

transact.

Realized

gains

and

losses

from

securities

transactions,

if

applicable,

are

recorded

on

the

basis

of

specific

identified

cost

incurred.

Investment

Income

Distributions

of

income

and

capital

gains

from

the

Funds

or

Underlying

Funds

are

recorded

on

the

ex-dividend

date.

Federal

Income

Taxes

Since

the

Investment

Company

is

a

Massachusetts

business

trust,

each

Fund

is

a

separate

corporate

taxpayer

and

determines

its

net

investment

income

and

capital

gains

(or

losses)

and

the

amounts

to

be

distributed

to

each

Fund's

shareholders

without

regard

to

the

income

and

capital

gains

(or

losses)

of

the

other

Funds.

Each

Fund

intends

to

qualify

or

continue

to

qualify

as

a

regulated

investment

company

under

Subchapter

M

of

the

Internal

Revenue

Code

of

1986,

as

amended

(the

"Code"),

and

intends

to

distribute

all

of

its

taxable

income

and

capital

gains.

Therefore,

no

federal

income

tax

provision

is

required

for

the

Funds.

The

Funds

comply

with

the

authoritative

guidance

for

uncertainty

in

income

taxes

which

requires

management

to

determine

whether

a

tax

position

of

the

Funds

is

more

likely

than

not

to

be

sustained

upon

examination,

including

resolution

of

any

related

appeals

or

litigation

processes,

based

on

the

technical

merits

of

the

position.

For

tax

positions

meeting

the

more

likely

than

not

threshold,

the

tax

amount

recognized

in

the

financial

statements

is

reduced

by

the

largest

benefit

that

has

a

greater

than

50%

likelihood

of

being

realized

upon

ultimate

settlement

with

the

relevant

taxing

authority.

Management

determined

that

no

accruals

need

to

be

made

in

the

financial

statements

due

to

uncertain

tax

positions.

Management

continually

reviews

and

adjusts

the

Funds'

liability

for

income

taxes

based

on

analyses

of

tax

laws

and

regulations,

as

well

as

their

interpretations,

and

other

relevant

factors.

Each

Fund

files

a

U.S.

tax

return.

As

of

June

30,

2025,

the

Funds

had

recorded

no

liabilities

for

net

unrecognized

tax

benefits

relating

to

uncertain

income

tax

positions

they

have

taken

or

expect

to

take

in

future

tax

returns.

While

the

statute

of

limitations

remains

open

to

examine

the

Funds'

U.S.

tax

returns

filed

for

the

fiscal

years

ended

December

31,

2021

through

December

31,

2023,

no

examinations

are

in

progress

or

anticipated

at

this

time.

The

Funds

are

not

aware

of

any

tax

positions

for

which

it

is

reasonably

possible

that

the

total

amounts

of

unrecognized

tax

benefits

will

significantly

change

in

the

next

twelve

months.

Dividends

and

Distributions

to

Shareholders

Income

dividends,

capital

gain

distributions

and

return

of

capital,

if

any,

are

recorded

on

the

ex-dividend

date.

Income

dividends

are

generally

declared

and

paid

quarterly.

Capital

gain

distributions

are

generally

declared

and

paid

annually.

An

additional

may

be

paid

by

the

Funds

to

avoid

imposition

of

federal

income

and

excise

tax

on

any

remaining

undistributed

capital

gains

and

net

investment

income.

The

timing

and

characterization

of

certain

income

and

capital

distributions

are

determined

in

accordance

with

federal

tax

regulations

which

may

differ

from

U.S.

GAAP.

As

a

result,

net

investment

income

and

net

(or

loss)

on

investments

and

foreign

currency-related

transactions

for

a

reporting

period

may

differ

significantly

from

distributions

during

such

period.

The

differences

between

tax

regulations

and

U.S.

GAAP

primarily

relate

to

investments

in

the

Underlying

Funds

sold

at

a

loss,

wash

deferrals

and

capital

loss

carryforwards.

Accordingly,

the

Funds

may

periodically

make

reclassifications

among

certain

of

their

capital

accounts

without

impacting

their

NAVs.

Expenses

Expenses

included

in

the

accompanying

financial

statements

reflect

the

expenses

of

each

Fund

and

do

not

include

those

expenses

incurred

by

the

Underlying

Because

the

Underlying

Funds

have

varied

expense

and

fee

levels

and

the

Funds

may

own

different

proportions

of

the

Underlying

Funds

at

different

times,

the

amount

of

the

Underlying

Funds'

fees

and

expenses

incurred

indirectly

by

the

Funds

will

vary.

The

than

those

expressly

assumed

by

RIM,

the

Funds'

adviser,

or

Russell

Investments

("RIFUS"),

the

Most

expenses

can

be

directly

attributed

to

the

individual

Expenses

which

cannot

be

are

allocated

among

all

principally

based

on

their

relative

Guarantees

In

the

normal

course

of

business,

the

Funds

may

enter

into

contracts

that

contain

a

variety

of

representations

which

provide

general

indemnifications.

The

Funds'

maximum

exposure

under

these

arrangements

is

unknown

as

this

would

involve

future

claims

that

may

be

made

against

the

However,

the

expect

the

risk

to

be

Market,

Credit

and

Counterparty

Risk

In

the

normal

course

of

business,

the

Underlying

Funds

trade

financial

instruments

and

enter

into

financial

transactions

where

risk

of

potential

loss

exists

due

to

changes

in

the

market

(market

risk)

or

failure

of

the

other

party

to

a

transaction

to

perform

(credit

risk).

Similar

to

credit

risk,

the

Underlying

Funds

may

also

be

exposed

to

counterparty

risk

or

risk

that

an

institution

or

other

entity

with

which

the

Underlying

Funds

have

unsettled

or

open

transactions

will

default.

The

potential

loss

could

exceed

the

value

of

the

relevant

assets

recorded

in

the

Underlying

Funds'

financial

statements

(the

"Assets").

The

Assets

consist

principally

of

cash

due

from

counterparties

and

investments.

The

extent

of

the

Underlying

Funds'

exposure

to

market,

credit

and

counterparty

risks

with

respect

to

the

Assets

approximates

their

carrying

value

as

recorded

in

the

Underlying

Funds'

Statements

of

Assets

and

Liabilities.

Global

financial

markets

are

increasingly

interconnected

and

political

and

economic

conditions

(including

instability

and

volatility

due

to

international

trade

disputes)

and

events

(including

natural

disasters,

pandemics,

epidemics,

social

unrest

and

government

shutdowns)

in

one

country,

region

or

financial

market

may

adversely

impact

issuers

in

a

different

country,

region

or

financial

market.

As

a

result,

issuers

of

securities

held

by

an

Underlying

Fund

may

experience

significant

declines

in

the

value

of

their

assets

and

even

cease

operations.

This

could

occur

whether

or

not

the

Underlying

Fund

invests

in

securities

of

issuers

located

in

or

with

significant

exposure

to

the

countries

directly

affected.

Such

conditions

and/or

events

may

not

have

the

same

impact

on

all

types

of

securities

and

may

expose

an

Underlying

Fund

to

greater

market

and

liquidity

risk

and

potential

difficulty

in

valuing

portfolio

instruments

held

by

an

Underlying

Fund.

This

could

cause

an

Underlying

Fund

to

underperform

other

types

of

investments.

From

time

to

time,

outbreaks

of

infectious

illness,

public

health

emergencies

and

other

similar

issues

("public

may

occur

in

have

reduced

resulted

in

global

supply

chains

and

the

securities

in

which

the

Underlying

Funds

invest

across

a

number

of

The

extent

of

the

impact

depends

on,

among

other

factors,

the

scale

and

duration

of

any

such

public

health

event.

Public

health

events

have

resulted

in

the

taking

potentially

significant

measures

to

seek

to

mitigate

the

transmission

of

the

infectious

illness

or

other

public

issue

including,

among

other

measures,

imposing

travel

restrictions

and/or

quarantines

and

limiting

the

operations

of

non-essential

businesses.

Any

of

these

events

could

adversely

affect

an

Underlying

investments

and

performance,

including

by

exacerbating

other

pre-existing

political,

social

and

economic

risks.

Governmental

authorities

and

other

entities

may

respond

to

such

events

with

fiscal

and/or

monetary

policy

changes.

It

is

not

guaranteed

that

these

policy

changes

will

have

their

intended

effect

and

it

is

possible

that

the

implementation

of

or

subsequent

reversal

of

such

policy

changes

could

increase

volatility

in

financial

markets,

of

its

members

who

are

not

considered

to

be

"interested

Act

(the

voting

approve

for

and,

thereafter,

approve

the

and

the

terms

and

of

each

contract

provide

for

its

termination

if

continuation

is

not

annually.

The

Board,

including

all

of

the

Independent

Trustees,

considered

and

approved

the

continuation

of

the

Agreements

at

a

meeting

held

in

person

on

May

19,

2025

(the

"Agreement

Evaluation

Meeting").

During

the

course

of

a

year,

the

Trustees

receive

a

wide

variety

of

materials

regarding,

among

other

things,

the

investment

performance

of

the

Funds

and

Underlying

Funds,

sales

and

redemptions

of

the

RIM

(and

its

and

the

and

compliance

with

applicable

regulatory

requirements.

In

preparation

for

the

annual

review,

the

Independent

Trustees,

with

the

advice

and

assistance

of

their

independent

counsel

("Independent

Counsel"),

also

requested

and

the

Board

considered:

(1) information

and

reports

prepared

by

RIM

relating

to

the

services

provided

by

RIM

(and

its

affiliates)

and

the

Money

Managers

to

the

Funds

and

the

Underlying

Funds;

(2) information

and

reports

prepared

by

RIM

relating

to

the

profitability

of

each

Fund

and

Underlying

Fund

to

RIM

(and

its

affiliates);

and

(3) information

received

from

an

independent,

nationally

recognized

provider

of

investment

company

information

(the

"Third-Party

Provider")

comparing

(i) the

performance

of

the

Funds

and

the

Underlying

Funds

over

various

time

periods

and

(ii) the

Funds'

and

the

Underlying

Funds'

respective

operating

expenses

as

of

each

Fund's

last

fiscal

year

end,

with

other

peer

funds

not

managed

by

RIM,

believed

by

the

Third-Party

Provider

to

be

generally

comparable

to

the

Funds

and

the

Underlying

Funds

(the

"Third-Party

Information").

The

Third-Party

Information

provided

performance

and

operating

expense

comparisons

for

the

Underlying

Funds

that

are

series

of

Russell

Investment

Funds

("RIF

and

comparisons

for

of

the

the

Independent

in

connection

with

its

evaluations

of

received

a

and

the

discussing

the

legal

for

their

consideration

Prior

to

at

the

the

Independent

again

met

in

private

session

with

Independent

Counsel

to

consider

Agreement

Evaluation

Information

received

from

RIM

and

management

at

and

prior

to

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Meeting.

The

discussion

below

reflects

the

culmination

of

all

of

these

reviews.

In

evaluating

the

Agreements,

the

Board

considered

that

most

of

the

Underlying

Funds

(the

"Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds")

employ

a

manager-of-managers

method

of

investment

and

that

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

in

employing

a

manager-of-managers

method

of

investment,

operate

in

a

manner

that

is

different

from

many

other

investment

companies.

Specifically,

the

Board

considered

that

RIM

has

engaged

multiple

unaffiliated

Money

Managers

for

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

and

is

responsible

for

paying

fees

to

the

Money

Managers

("Money

Manager

Fees")

out

of

the

advisory

fees

paid

by

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

to

RIM

for

its

services

under

the

RIM

Agreement.

A

Money

Manager

may

have

(1) a

discretionary

asset

management

assignment

pursuant

to

which

it

is

allocated

a

portion

of

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

assets

to

manage

directly

and

for

which

it

selects

and

trades

the

individual

portfolio

securities

for

the

assets

assigned

to

it;

(2) a

non-discretionary

assignment

pursuant

to

which

it

provides

a

model

portfolio

to

RIM

representing

its

investment

recommendations,

based

upon

which

RIM

purchases

and

sells

securities

for

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund;

or

(3) both

a

discretionary

and

a

non-discretionary

assignment.

Money

Manager

Fees

for

a

non-discretionary

assignment

may

be

the

same

as,

or

lower

than,

the

fees

would

be

for

a

discretionary

assignment

with

the

same

Money

Manager.

The

Long

Duration

Bond

Fund

does

not

employ

a

manager-of-managers

method

of

investment

and

is

instead

managed

only

by

RIM.

The

Board

considered

that

RIM

(rather

than

any

Money

Manager

in

the

case

of

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds)

is

responsible

under

the

RIM

Agreement

for

determining,

implementing

and

maintaining

the

investment

program

for

each

Fund

and,

in

conducting

each

Fund's

investment

program,

allocating

assets

of

such

Fund

principally

among

its

Underlying

Funds.

The

assets

of

each

Fund

are

principally

invested

in

different

combinations

of

the

Underlying

Funds

pursuant

to

target

strategic

asset

allocations

set

by

RIM.

RIM

analyzes

opportunities

and

risks

at

the

aggregate

level

of

the

four

main

asset

classes

–

equities,

fixed

income,

multi-asset

and

alternatives

–

and

monitors

exposure

to

such

asset

classes

using

analytical

tools

to

seek

to

ensure

that

any

deviations

from

the

target

strategic

asset

allocations

are

intentional

and

tactical.

RIM

periodically

evaluates

each

Fund's

allocation

between

asset

classes

to

seek

to

ensure

that

the

allocations

optimally

match

the

Fund's

stated

investment

objectives

and

risk

profile.

RIM

may

modify

the

target

strategic

asset

allocation

for

any

Fund,

including

changes

to

the

Underlying

Funds

in

which

the

Funds

invest

from

time

to

time.

The

overall

performance

of

each

Fund

therefore

has

reflected,

in

part,

the

performance

of

RIM

in

designing

the

investment

program

of

the

Fund

and

in

determining

the

Funds'

target

strategic

asset

allocations.

The

overall

performance

of

each

Fund

also

has

reflected

the

performance

of

RIM

in

managing

its

Underlying

Funds.

Assets

of

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

are

allocated

among

RIM

and

the

multiple

Money

Manager

strategies

selected

by

RIM

for

that

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund.

RIM

may

change

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

target

strategic

asset

allocation

to

a

Money

Manager

at

any

time,

including

by

allocating

no

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

assets

to

one

or

more

Money

Manager

strategies.

In

addition,

RIM

continues

to

manage

the

investment

of

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

cash

and

portions

of

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

during

transitions

between

discretionary

Money

Managers.

RIM

also

continues

to

manage

directly

any

portion

of

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

assets

that

RIM

determines

not

to

allocate

to

Money

Manager

strategies.

Most

Underlying

Funds

usually,

but

not

always,

pursue

a

strategy

of

being

fully

invested

by

exposing

all

or

a

portion

of

their

cash

to

the

performance

of

certain

markets

by

purchasing

equity

securities,

fixed

income

securities

and/or

derivatives.

This

cash

"equitization"

strategy

is

managed

by

RIM

and

is

intended

to

cause

a

Fund

to

perform

as

though

its

cash

were

actually

invested

in

those

specified

markets

or

strategies.

With

respect

to

the

portion

of

a

Manager-

of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

that

RIM

manages

based

upon

non-discretionary

Money

Manager

model

portfolios,

RIM

constructs

a

portfolio

that

represents

the

aggregation

of

the

model

portfolios

based

upon

RIM's

allocation

to

each

Money

Manager's

strategy

through

an

"enhanced

portfolio

implementation,"

or

"emulation,"

process

designed

to

capture

return

streams

of

multiple

Money

Managers

in

a

centralized

portfolio.

RIM

then

implements

the

portfolio

consistent

with

the

aggregation

of

the

model

portfolios,

but

may

deviate

from

such

aggregation

for

the

purposes

of

exposure

and

transaction

cost

management.

RIM

stated

its

belief

that

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

benefit

from

emulation

through,

among

other

things,

improved

incremental

returns

over

time

due

to

lower

aggregate

transaction

costs

(including

the

impact

of

lower

trading

volume

on

custody

charges)

and

lower

turnover

from

reduced

trading

volumes,

the

potential

for

additional

commission

recapture,

improved

portfolio

efficiency

and

control

by

enabling

the

implementation

team

more

options

for

controlling

investment

exposures,

managing

cash

flows

and

rebalances

transitions.

The

Board

noted

the

variety

and

complexity

of

investment

advisory

services

that

RIM

provides

directly

or,

through

the

Underlying

Funds,

indirectly

to

the

Funds

under

the

RIM

Agreement.

In

the

case

of

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

RIM

is

responsible

for

selecting

(subject

to

Board

approval),

overseeing

and

evaluating

the

performance

results

of

the

Money

Managers

for

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

and

for

actively

managing

allocations

and

reallocations

of

its

assets

among

Money

Manager

strategies

and

RIM

itself.

Each

discretionary

Money

Manager

for

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

in

effect

performs

the

function

of

an

individual

portfolio

manager

who

is

responsible

for

researching,

selecting

and

trading

portfolio

securities

for

the

portion

of

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

assigned

to

it

by

RIM

in

accordance

with

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

applicable

investment

objective,

policies

and

restrictions,

any

specific

guidelines

placed

by

RIM

upon

their

selection

of

portfolio

securities,

and

the

Money

Manager's

specified

role

in

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund.

A

Money

Manager's

primary

role

is

to

pursue

a

particular

investment

strategy

that

has

been

selected

and

assigned

to

it

by

RIM

through

sector

and

security

selection

and

risk

control

measures

in

a

manner

that

is

consistent

with

its

RIM-assigned

guidelines.

The

Money

Managers

operate

subject

to

the

oversight

of,

and

instructions

from,

RIM.

For

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund,

RIM

is

responsible

for,

among

other

things,

providing

each

Money

Manager

with

the

investment

guidelines

and

policies

for

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

and

any

specific

investment

restrictions;

monitoring

the

performance

of

each

Money

Manager

and

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund;

generally

supervising

compliance

by

the

discretionary

Money

Managers

and,

as

applicable,

the

non-discretionary

Money

Managers

with

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

investment

objective

and

policies;

with

respect

to

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

with

non-discretionary

Money

Managers,

purchasing

and

selling

securities

for

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

based

on

model

portfolios

representing

the

investment

recommendations

of

the

non-discretionary

Money

Managers;

managing

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

assets

that

are

not

allocated

to

Money

Manager

strategies;

managing

the

Manager-of-

Managers

Underlying

Funds'

cash

balances;

and

recommending

at

least

annually

to

the

Board

whether

portfolio

management

contracts

should

be

renewed,

modified

or

terminated.

In

addition

to

its

annual

recommendation

as

to

the

renewal,

modification

or

termination

of

portfolio

management

contracts,

RIM

is

responsible

for

recommending

to

the

Board

additions

of

new

Money

Managers,

or

terminations

or

replacements

of

existing

Money

Managers

at

any

time

when,

based

on

RIM's

research

and

ongoing

review

and

analysis,

such

actions

are,

in

RIM's

judgment,

appropriate.

RIM

provides

each

Money

Manager

with

specific

investment

guidelines

based

on

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

investment

program

and

RIM's

assessment

of

the

Money

Manager's

expertise

and

investment

style

whereby

RIM

attempts

to

capitalize

on

the

strengths

of

each

Money

Manager

and

to

combine

the

investment

activities

of

Money

Managers

for

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

in

a

complementary

fashion.

Therefore,

RIM's

selection

of

Money

Managers

for

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

is

made

not

only

on

the

basis

of

performance

considerations

but

also

on

the

basis

of

other

factors,

including

anticipated

compatibility

with

other

Money

Managers

in

the

same

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund.

In

light

of

the

foregoing,

the

overall

performance

of

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

has

reflected,

in

great

part,

the

performance

of

RIM

in

designing

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

investment

program,

structuring

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund,

selecting

effective

Money

Managers,

and

allocating

assets

among

the

Money

Manager

strategies

and

RIM

in

a

manner

designed

to

achieve

the

investment

objectives

of

the

Manager-

of-Managers

Underlying

Fund.

In

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

RIM

noted

the

broad

array

of

investment

management

services

provided

to

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

by

RIM

and

the

relatively

narrow

scope

of

portfolio

management

services

provided

to

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

by

Money

Managers.

RIM

has

advised

the

Board

that

its

portfolio

construction

process

is

investment

led

and

designed

to

be

conducted

in

a

manner

that

is

consistent

with

its

fiduciary

duties.

The

objective

of

RIM's

portfolio

construction

is

to

meet

a

portfolio's

investment

objective

and

established

excess

return

target.

In

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

RIM

noted

that

while

it

has

general

goals

for

Money

Manager

Fees

in

the

aggregate

globally,

there

are

no

specific

fee

targets

that

are

established

for

individual

portfolios,

which

includes

each

of

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds.

In

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

Money

Manager

Fees,

in

the

aggregate,

must

allow

RIM

to

remain

a

going

concern

with

sufficient

resources

to

provide

required

services

to

the

Funds

and

to

earn

a

reasonable

profit.

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

RIM

portfolio

managers

utilize

a

number

of

tools

in

the

portfolio

construction

process

in

order

to

meet

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

objective

taking

into

account

Money

Manager

Fees.

These

tools

include,

among

others,

Money

Manager

selection,

Money

Manager

allocation,

Money

Manager

Fee

negotiations,

guideline

customization

and

RIM's

direct

management

of

a

portion

of

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds'

assets

(as

further

described

below).

The

Board

considered

that

the

prospectuses

for

the

Funds

and

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

and

other

public

disclosures

have

emphasized,

and

continue

to

emphasize,

to

investors

RIM's

role

as

the

principal

investment

manager

for

each

such

#### Russell

#### Investment

#### Funds

#### LifePoints

####®

#### Funds

#### Variable

#### Target

#### Portfolio

#### Series

#### Basis

of

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund,

rather

than

the

investment

selection

or

recommendation

role

of

the

Money

Managers,

and

describe

the

manner

in

which

the

Funds

or

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

operate.

The

Board

further

considered

that

Fund

investors

in

pursuing

their

investment

goals

and

objectives

likely

purchased

their

shares

on

the

basis

of

this

information

and

RIM's

reputation

and

experience

in

managing

the

structure

of

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds.

The

Board

also

considered

the

demands

and

complexity

of

managing

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

pursuant

to

the

manager-of-managers

structure,

the

special

expertise

of

RIM

with

respect

to

the

manager-of-managers

structure

of

the

Manager-of-

Managers

Underlying

Funds

and

the

possibility

that,

at

the

current

expense

ratio

of

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund,

there

might

be

no

acceptable

alternative

investment

managers

to

replace

RIM

on

comparable

terms

given

the

need

to

continue

the

manager-of-managers

strategy

of

such

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund.

In

addition

to

these

general

factors

relating

to

the

structure

of

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

the

Trustees

considered,

with

respect

to

each

Fund

and

Underlying

Fund,

various

specific

factors

in

evaluating

the

renewal

of

the

RIM

Agreement,

including

the

following:

1. The

nature,

scope

and

overall

quality

of

the

investment

management

and

other

services

provided,

and

expected

to

be

provided,

to

the

Fund

or

the

Underlying

Fund

by

RIM;

2. The

advisory

fee

paid

by

the

Fund

or

the

Underlying

Fund

to

RIM

for

its

services

under

the

RIM

Agreement

(the

"Advisory

Fee"),

and,

in

the

case

of

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

the

fact

that

RIM

pays

all

Money

Manager

Fees

out

of

its

Advisory

Fee;

3. The

combined

Advisory

Fee

paid

to

RIM

and

the

administrative

fee

paid

to

RIM's

wholly

owned

subsidiary

for

administrative

services

(the

"Administrative

Fee,"

and

together

with

the

Advisory

Fee,

the

"Management

Fee");

4. The

performance

of

the

Funds

and

the

Underlying

Funds

relative

to

their

respective

benchmark

indices

and

Comparable

Funds;

5. Information

provided

by

RIM

as

to

other

fees

and

benefits

received

by

RIM

or

its

affiliates

in

connection

with

the

Fund

or

the

Underlying

Fund,

including

any

administrative

or

transfer

agent

fees,

any

fees

received

for

management

or

administration

of

the

fund

in

which

the

Underlying

Funds

invest

their

uninvested

cash,

and

commissions

or

other

compensation

in

connection

with

the

execution

of

portfolio

securities

and

foreign

exchange

transactions;

6. Information

provided

by

RIM

as

to

expenses

incurred

by

the

Fund

or

Underlying

Fund;

7. Information

provided

by

RIM

as

to

The

President

and

Chief

Investment

of

Russell

discussed

with

the

the

performance

of

certain

Funds

and

Underlying

Funds,

how

Russell

success,

and

recent

The

Board

also

discussed

the

compliance

program

with

the

Funds'

Chief

Compliance

Officer

("CCO"),

including

certain

items

reported

in

the

annual

report

of

the

CCO

required

under

Rule

38a-1

of

the

1940

Act

(the

included

the

and

enhancements

in

the

past

year

related

to

the

compliance

program

that

the

CCO

identified

in

Agreement

for

and

areas

focus

for

the

year.

The

CCO

advised

the

Board

that

the

Funds

and

RIM,

with

respect

to

the

services

RIM

provides

to

the

Funds,

have

each

adopted

and

effectively

implemented

written

policies

and

procedures

that

are

reasonably

designed

to

prevent

violation

of

the

Federal

Securities

Laws

(as

such

term

is

defined

in

the

1940

Act).

RIM

is

an

indirect

wholly

owned

subsidiary

of

Russell

Investments

Group,

Ltd.,

through

which

the

limited

partners

of

certain

private

equity

funds

affiliated

with

TA

Associates

indirectly

have

a

majority

ownership

interest

through

alternative

investment

vehicles

and

the

limited

partners

of

certain

private

equity

funds

affiliated

with

Reverence

Capital

Partners,

L.P.

("Reverence

Capital")

indirectly

have

a

significant

minority

controlling

ownership

interest

(as

"control"

is

defined

in

the

1940

Act)

through

certain

Reverence

Capital

funds

and

alternative

investment

vehicles

in

RIM

and

its

affiliates

("Russell

Investments").

Certain

of

Russell

Investments'

employees

and

Hamilton

Lane

Advisors,

LLC

also

hold

minority,

non-controlling

positions

in

Russell

Investments.

In

connection

with

the

Board's

initial

approval

of

the

RIM

Agreement

in

2015,

TA

Associates

advised

the

Board

of

its

plans

ultimately

to

effect

a

sale

or

other

disposition

of

its

ownership

interest

in

Russell

Investments.

Any

such

future

transaction

("Transaction")

could

cause

a

change

of

control

of

RIM

resulting,

among

other

things,

in

an

assignment

and

termination

of

the

RIM

Agreement,

as

required

by

the

1940

Act

and

by

the

terms

and

conditions

of

the

RIM

Agreement.

In

the

event

of

a

Transaction,

the

Board

would

be

required

to

consider

the

approval

of

the

terms

and

conditions

of

a

replacement

agreement

("Successor

Agreement")

for

the

RIM

Agreement

and,

thereafter,

to

submit

the

Successor

Agreement

to

each

Fund's

shareholders

for

approval,

as

required

by

the

1940

Act.

During

the

executive

session

with

a

representative

of

TA

Associates

held

in

connection

with

the

Agreement

Information

Review

Meeting,

among

other

things,

the

status

of

TA

Associates'

indirect

investment

in

RIM

and

RIM's

access

to

sufficient

resources

to

support

its

activities

in

respect

of

the

Funds,

including

in

light

of

the

current

market

environment,

current

debt

levels,

capital

structure

and

liquidity

of

Russell

Investments

Group,

Ltd.,

and

the

impact

of

certain

changes

in

Russell

Investments'

senior

management

were

discussed.

The

Board

was

not

advised

of

any

change

in

TA

Associates'

ultimate

plans

regarding

its

ownership

interest

in

Russell

Investments.

The

Board

was

advised

of

TA

Associates'

commitment

to

continue

to

support

the

same

level

of

services

currently

being

provided

by

RIM

and

its

affiliates

to

the

Funds.

As

noted

above,

RIM,

in

addition

to

managing

the

investment

of

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund's

cash,

directly

manages

a

portion

(which

may

represent

a

significant

portion)

of

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

pursuant

to

the

RIM

Agreement,

with

the

actual

allocation

of

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

assets

among

Money

Manager

strategies

and

RIM

being

determined

from

time

to

time

by

the

RIM

portfolio

manager(s).

RIM

may

utilize

tools

such

as

"optimization,"

which

involves

the

analysis

of

tradeoffs

between

various

risk

and

return

factors

as

well

as

turnover

and

transaction

costs,

in

order

to

estimate

optimal

portfolio

positioning.

RIM

may

use

strategies

based

on

indexes,

including

optimized

index

sampling

(strategies

that

seek

to

purchase

a

sampling

of

securities

using

optimization

and

risk

models)

and/or

index

replication.

For

certain

Underlying

Funds,

RIM

may

invest

in

derivative

instruments

and

may

use

derivatives

to

take

both

long

and

short

positions.

RIM's

direct

management

of

assets

for

these

purposes

is

hereinafter

referred

to

as

the

"Direct

Management

Services."

While

no

new

direct

management

strategies

were

implemented

in

2024,

the

Board

has

been

advised

that,

where

appropriate

in

its

judgment,

RIM

may

continue

exploring

the

possible

addition

of

new

or

expansion

of

existing

Direct

Management

Services.

Therefore,

larger

portions

of

certain

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

may

be

managed

directly

by

RIM

pursuant

to

the

Direct

Management

Services.

According

to

RIM,

for

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

its

portfolio

managers

combine

Money

Manager

strategies

and,

through

RIM's

Direct

Management

Services,

align

exposures

with

RIM's

preferred

positioning

by

seeking

to

precisely

manage

portfolio

exposures

as

well

as

to

generate

alpha

as

they

construct

portfolios.

RIM's

Direct

Management

Services

are

customized

portfolios

directly

managed

by

RIM

for

use

within

the

total

portfolio

of

a

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund.

RIM's

Direct

Management

Services

are

used

in

conjunction

with

allocations

to

Money

Manager

strategies

to

fully

reflect

RIM's

strategic

and

dynamic

insights

with

integrated

liquidity

and

risk

management.

The

Board

considered

that

RIM

is

not

required

to

pay

Money

Manager

Fees

to

any

Money

Managers

with

respect

to

assets

for

which

it

provides

Direct

Management

Services

and

that

the

profits

derived

by

RIM

generally

and

from

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

consequently

may

be

increased,

although

RIM

noted

that

it

incurs

additional

costs

in

providing

Direct

Management

Services.

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

allocations,

or

increased

allocations,

of

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

assets

to

Direct

Management

Services,

together

with

Money

Manager

selection,

allocations

among

Money

Manager

strategies,

renegotiation

of

Money

Manager

Fees

and

changes

in

existing

Money

Manager

assignments

from

discretionary

to

non-discretionary

assignments

where

there

is

a

related

Money

Manager

Fee

reduction

may

reduce

its

costs

of

providing

investment

advisory

services

to

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

which

would

benefit

RIM.

The

Board

considered

RIM's

advice

that

any

such

benefit,

(Unaudited)

Basis

Advisory

Agreement

including

any

increased

profits

to

RIM,

ultimately

may

be

partially

offset

by

the

impact

of

any

new

or

additional

fee

waivers

or

expense

caps

separately

agreed

upon

and

implemented

from

time

to

time

for

the

affected

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

and

any

costs

of

incremental

investments

or

increased

cost

allocations

that

RIM

may

incur

to

support

Direct

Management

Services.

The

Board

also

considered

information

provided

by

RIM

as

to

the

potential

benefits

of

the

Direct

Management

Services

to

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

and

the

fact

that

the

aggregate

Advisory

Fees

paid

by

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

are

not

increased

as

a

result

of

RIM's

direct

management

of

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

assets

as

part

of

the

Direct

Management

Services

or

otherwise.

The

Board

noted

that

changes

in

the

allocation

of

assets

among

Money

Manager

strategies

or

to

Direct

Management

Services,

as

well

as

changes

in

the

allocation

of

Fund

assets

among

the

Underlying

Funds,

may

result

directly

in

higher

related

costs

to

affected

Underlying

Funds,

including

higher

brokerage

commissions

and

other

transaction

costs,

a

portion

of

which

is

paid

to

RIM's

affiliated

broker

in

connection

with

execution

of

portfolio

transactions

in

connection

with

such

changes.

RIM

advised

the

Board

that,

in

order

to

preserve

flexibility

and

to

manage

risks,

and

consistent

with

the

terms

of

the

manager-of-

managers

exemptive

order,

in

2019,

RIM

created

Money

Manager

"bench"

lineups

for

certain

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

whereby

those

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

have

Board-approved

portfolio

management

contracts

with

Money

Managers

that

are

not

funded

(i.e.,

have

an

asset

allocation

of

zero).

In

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

the

opportunity

to

decrease

a

Money

Manager's

allocation

to

zero,

but

not

terminate

the

Money

Manager,

allows

RIM

to

potentially

realize

gains

from

strategies

that

may

have

been

overly

rewarded

in

the

marketplace

over

the

short

to

medium

term,

or

provide

the

opportunity

to

retain

capacity

with

a

Money

Manager

that

may

otherwise

be

closed

to

new

business.

The

Board

noted

that

RIM

does

not

believe

there

are

any

detriments

to

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

or

RIM

from

the

use

of

a

Money

Manager

bench.

RIM

has

advised

the

Board

that

RIM

may

add

Money

Managers

to,

or

remove

Money

Managers

from,

a

Money

Manager

bench

lineup

for

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

or

create

Money

Manager

bench

lineups

for

additional

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds.

The

Agreement

Evaluation

Information

outlined

various

changes

that

have

been

implemented

in

the

investment

program

for

the

Funds

and

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

in

recent

years

and

described

additional

changes

that

have

been

implemented

or

are

underway,

and

the

impact

of

such

changes,

to

the

investment

advisory

services

provided

to

the

Underlying

Funds

by

RIM,

which

the

Trustees

took

into

account

in

their

contract

renewal

deliberations,

including

the

following:

• The

Direct

Management

Services

described

above.

• Most

discretionary

Money

Manager

equity

assignments

for

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

were

previously

converted

to

non-discretionary

assignments,

thereby

implementing

emulation

for

those

Money

Manager

equity

assignments.

The

Board

considered

the

potential

impacts

described

in

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

both

positive

and

negative,

on

the

Manager-

of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

of

emulation.

RIM

noted

that,

in

implementing

emulation

for

most

equity

assignments

for

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

it

assumes

various

additional

risks,

including

trade

error

risk

as

it

takes

over

responsibility

for

trading.

RIM

generally

effects

Underlying

Fund

equity

portfolio

transactions

through

an

affiliated

broker

that

receives

a

portion

of

the

commissions

paid

by

the

Funds

for

effecting

some

of

these

transactions.

For

such

equity

transactions,

the

Underlying

Funds

pay

RIM's

affiliated

broker

dealer

commission

rates

that

are

determined

by

an

oversight

committee

of

RIM.

According

to

RIM,

the

Underlying

Funds

pay

the

same

commission

rates

regardless

of

whether

the

affiliated

broker

dealer

receives

any

portion

of

the

commission.

RIM

noted

certain

enhancements

in

recent

years

to

the

emulation

process

for

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

including

increasing

the

frequency

of

receipt

of

certain

Money

Manager

model

portfolios,

the

utilization

of

a

risk-based

portfolio

dashboard

and

model

liquidity

monitoring.

While

RIM

generally

implements

Money

Manager

equity

strategies

via

emulation,

RIM

has

determined

and

may

determine

that

certain

Money

Manager

equity

strategies

should

be

implemented

by

Money

Managers

on

a

discretionary

basis.

• RIM

has

renegotiated

fees

with

certain

Money

Managers

to

lower

levels

and

advised

the

Board

that

it

will

continue

to

assess

opportunities

for

Money

Manager

Fee

reductions

in

the

future.

RIM

advised

the

Board

that

it

has

not

experienced,

and

does

not

expect

to

experience,

any

diminution

in

the

nature,

scope

or

quality

of

services

provided

by

Money

Managers

as

a

result

of

renegotiated

Money

Manager

Fees.

• Benchmark

of

conditions,

forecasts

and

RIM's

In

evaluating

the

Funds'

and

Underlying

Funds'

Advisory

Fees

and

Management

Fees,

the

Board

considered

that,

in

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information

and

at

past

meetings,

RIM

noted

differences

between

the

investment

strategies

of

certain

Underlying

Funds

and

their

respective

Comparable

Funds

in

pursuing

their

investment

objectives.

The

Board

considered

that,

effective

March

1,

2024,

the

contractual

advisory

fee

rates

were

reduced

for

certain

RIC

Underlying

Funds

for

which

RIM

was

consistently

waiving

advisory

fees

or

reimbursing

Fund

expenses

under

an

expense

cap,

and

new

waivers

and/or

expense

caps

for

certain

RIC

Underlying

Funds

were

implemented

upon

the

expiration

of

the

prior

waivers

and/or

expense

caps.

To

assist

the

Board's

evaluation

of

the

Advisory

Fees,

Management

Fees

and

total

expenses

of

such

RIC

Underlying

Funds,

RIM

provided

comparisons

and

discussion

of

the

Management

Fees

and

total

expenses

of

each

RIC

Underlying

Fund

on

an

adjusted

basis

to

reflect

the

annualized

impact

of

changes

to

contractual

Advisory

Fees

and

Advisory

Fee

waivers

and

expense

caps,

as

applicable,

that

were

implemented

in

2024

relative

to

the

management

fees

and

total

expenses

of

such

RIC

Underlying

Fund's

Comparable

Funds

included

in

the

Third-Party

Information.

The

Third-Party

Information

included,

among

other

things,

comparisons

of

the

Funds'

Management

Fees

with

the

management

fees

of

their

Comparable

Funds

on

an

actual

basis

(i.e.,

giving

effect

to

any

fee

waivers

and/or

expense

caps

implemented

by

RIM

with

respect

to

a

Fund

and

by

the

managers

of

such

Fund's

Comparable

Funds).

The

Third-Party

Information

showed,

among

other

things,

that

the

Moderate

Strategy

Fund,

Balanced

Strategy

Fund

and

Aggressive

Strategy

Fund

(formerly

the

Growth

Strategy

Fund)

each

had

a

Management

Fee

which,

compared

with

the

management

fees

of

its

respective

Comparable

Funds

on

an

actual

basis,

was

ranked

in

the

second

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe

for

that

expense

component,

and

the

Equity

Aggressive

Strategy

Fund

(formerly

the

Equity

Growth

Strategy

Fund)

had

a

Management

Fee

which,

compared

with

the

management

fees

of

its

Comparable

Funds

on

an

actual

basis,

was

ranked

in

the

first

quintile

of

its

Expense

Universe

for

that

expense

component.

In

these

rankings,

the

first

quintile

represents

funds

with

the

lowest

management

fees

among

funds

in

the

Expense

Universe,

and

the

fifth

quintile

represents

funds

with

the

highest

management

fees

among

funds

in

the

Expense

Universe.

The

comparisons

were

based

upon

the

latest

fiscal

years

for

the

Expense

Universe

funds

and

the

Third-Party

Information.

The

Funds

and

the

difficult

as

insurance

companies

have

flexibility

to

allocate

certain

fees

between

the

variable

annuity

and

variable

life

insurance

contracts

held

by

Insurance

Contract

Holders

and

the

affiliated

underlying

funds.

RIM

also

noted

the

administrative

services

provided

by

an

insurance

company

to

Insurance

Contract

Holders

invested

in

the

Funds

and

the

RIF

Underlying

Funds

and

the

costs

associated

with

the

provision

of

such

administrative

services.

RIM

explained

that

these

administrative

services

benefit

the

Funds'

and

RIF

Underlying

Funds'

Insurance

Contract

Holders

and

are

necessary

for

the

operation

of

the

Funds

and

the

RIF

Underlying

Funds.

In

discussing

the

Management

Fees

for

the

Underlying

Funds

generally,

RIM

noted,

among

other

things,

that

its

Management

Fees

for

the

Underlying

Funds

encompass

services

that

are

typical

to

services

provided

by

investment

advisers

to

the

Underlying

Funds'

Comparable

Funds,

as

well

as

transition

management

services

that

enable

efficient

and

cost-effective

asset

transition

events

and

the

administration

of

a

cash

equitization

program.

RIM

also

advised

the

Board

that

its

pre-tax

profit

margin

from

its

relationships

with

the

Funds

and

Underlying

Funds

increased

slightly

in

2024,

and

RIM's

2024

pre-tax

profit

margin

in

providing

investment

advisory

services

to

the

Funds

is

higher

than

the

median

of

the

operating

profit

margins

of

public

investment

management

company

peers

(in

each

case,

including

sales

and

client

service

expenses)

based

on

a

survey

conducted

as

of

September

30,

2024

reflecting

the

prior

months.

The

Board

considered

each

Fund's

and

Underlying

Fund's

Advisory

Fee

and

Management

Fee

on

both

a

standalone

basis

and

in

the

context

of

the

Fund's

or

Underlying

Fund's

total

expense

ratio.

The

Board

also

considers

the

various

expense

components,

other

than

the

Advisory

Fee

and

Management

Fee,

that

comprise

each

Fund's

total

expense

ratio,

and

the

extent

to

which

such

expense

components

contribute

to

each

Fund's

total

expense

rankings

within

its

Expense

Universe.

The

Board

has

engaged,

and

continues

to

engage,

in

discussions

with

RIM

to

identify

opportunities,

where

appropriate,

for

improving

the

or

At

the

Agreement

Information

Review

Meeting

and

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Meeting,

the

Board

reviewed

and

discussed

with

RIM

the

Management

Fees

and

total

expense

ratios

of

the

Underlying

Funds

relative

to

their

respective

Comparable

Funds,

including

the

fee

waivers

RIM

had

previously

implemented

and

agreed

to

implement

in

the

future

to

reduce

Management

Fees

and/

or

total

expenses

for

certain

Underlying

Funds,

and

the

Underlying

Funds'

Comparable

Fund

fee

and

expense

trending

year-over-

year.

Based

on

that

review

and

discussions

with

RIM,

including

discussions

with

RIM

regarding

the

reasonableness

of

various

components

of

certain

Underlying

Funds'

total

expense

ratio

other

than

its

Management

Fee,

the

Independent

Trustees

will

continue

to

evaluate

and

engage

in

ongoing

discussions

with

management

regarding

Management

Fee

and

total

expense

comparisons

of

the

Underlying

Funds.

Based

upon

information

provided

by

RIM,

the

Board

considered

for

each

Fund

and

Underlying

Fund

whether

economies

of

scale

have

been

realized

and

whether

the

Advisory

Fee

for

such

Fund

or

Underlying

Fund

appropriately

reflects

or

should

be

revised

to

reflect

any

such

economies.

The

Board

considered,

among

other

things,

the

variability

of

Money

Manager

Fees

and

other

factors

associated

with

the

manager-of-managers

structure

employed

by

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

as

well

as

net

Fund

redemptions

or

purchases

in

recent

years.

With

respect

to

each

Underlying

Fund,

the

Board

considered

any

Advisory

Fee

waivers

or

expense

limitation

arrangements

that

had

been

implemented

in

the

past

year,

and

those

proposed

to

be

implemented

in

the

future.

In

addition,

the

Board,

in

the

case

of

certain

Underlying

Funds,

considered

Advisory

Fee

breakpoints

that

previously

had

been

implemented

for

those

Underlying

Funds.

The

Funds

are

primarily

distributed

through,

and

their

assets

are

primarily

attributed

to,

The

Northwestern

Mutual

Life

Insurance

Company

("Northwestern

Mutual").

The

Funds

continue

to

experience

outflows;

however,

RIM

advised

the

Board

there

is

regular

contact

with

Northwestern

Mutual

in

order

to

maintain

product

availability

and

continue

efforts

to

grow

the

product

line.

RIM

expressed

its

belief

that

Northwestern

Mutual

is

still

committed

to

the

Funds

and

RIF

Underlying

Funds.

However,

the

Board

has

received

no

direct

assurances

in

this

regard

from

Northwestern

Mutual.

If

Northwestern

Mutual

were

to

discontinue

its

participation

in

the

Funds,

the

Board

considered

that

it

is

unlikely

that

the

Funds

would

remain

viable.

RIM

previously

expressed

its

belief

that

the

Funds

will

remain

viable

in

the

near

term,

and

the

Board

was

not

advised

of

any

change

in

RIM's

belief

in

this

regard.

The

Board

considered,

among

other

things,

the

potential

negative

implications

for

significant

future

Fund

asset

growth

if

additional

insurance

companies

do

not

make

the

Funds

available

to

their

variable

annuity

and

variable

life

insurance

policyholders.

The

Board

also

considered

that

the

advisory

fee

rates

payable

to

RIM

by

Other

RIM

Funds

and

fee

rates

payable

to

RIM

or

its

affiliates

by

other

registered

investment

companies

and

by

institutional

clients

with

investment

objectives

similar

to

those

of

the

Funds

in

some

cases

are

lower

than

the

advisory

fee

rates

paid

by

the

Funds

(including

indirect

expenses

of

investing

in

Underlying

Funds).

The

Trustees

considered

RIM's

explanation

that

the

advisory

fees

payable

to

RIM

by

the

Funds

and

the

Other

RIM

Funds

reflect,

among

other

things,

differences

in

the

type

of

product,

distribution

channel

and

investors.

The

Trustees

also

considered

the

differences

in

the

nature

and

scope

of

services

RIM

provides

to

other

registered

investment

companies

and

institutional

clients

relative

to

those

provided

to

the

Funds

and

the

Underlying

Funds.

With

respect

to

institutional

clients,

RIM

explained,

among

other

things,

that

institutional

products

have

fewer

compliance,

administrative,

client

servicing/communication

and

other

needs

than

the

Funds

and

the

Underlying

Funds.

RIM

also

noted

that

due

to

the

number

and

nature

of

investors,

along

with

their

varied

needs

for

liquidity,

there

is

more

portfolio

liquidity

management

and

cash

flow

management

required

for

the

Underlying

Funds

than

for

RIM's

and

its

affiliates'

institutional

clients,

where

assets

are

relatively

stable.

In

addition,

RIM

noted

that

the

Funds

and

the

Underlying

Funds

are

subject

to

heightened

regulatory

requirements

relative

to

institutional

clients.

Accordingly,

the

Trustees

concluded

that

the

services

provided

to

the

Funds

and

Underlying

Funds

are

sufficiently

different

from

the

services

provided

to

such

institutional

clients

that

comparisons

are

not

probative

and

should

not

be

given

significant

weight.

With

respect

to

the

Funds'

total

expenses,

the

Third-Party

Information

showed

that

the

total

direct

expenses

(i.e.,

not

including

indirect

expenses

of

the

Underlying

Funds)

for

each

Fund

ranked

in

the

second

quintile

of

its

respective

Expense

Universe.

In

these

rankings,

the

first

quintile

represents

the

funds

with

the

lowest

total

expenses

among

funds

in

the

Expense

Universe

and

the

fifth

quintile

represents

funds

with

the

highest

total

expenses

among

the

Expense

Universe

funds.

On

Information,

and

after

giving

to

any

for

the

and

considering

any

differences

in

the

investment

strategies

of

their

and

in

light

of

other

factors

discussed

above:

(1) found

that

the

Advisory

Fee

and

Administrative

Fee

were

acceptable

in

light

of

the

nature,

scope

and

overall

quality

of

the

investment

advisory

and

other

services

provided,

and

expected

to

be

provided,

to

and

to

provide

continuity

of

investment

advisory

and

other

services

by

RIM

and

its

to

the

or

(2) either

found

that

the

relative

expense

ratio

of

each

Fund

and

Underlying

Fund

was

comparable

to

those

of

its

Comparable

or

took

into

account

the

factors

noted

above,

and

other

factors

in

respect

of

the

Underlying

Funds,

in

considering

the

relative

expense

ratio

as

compared

to

those

of

its

Comparable

Funds;

(3) found

that

the

other

benefits

and

fees

received

by

RIM

or

its

affiliates

from

the

Fund

or

Underlying

Fund

identified

in

the

Agreement

Evaluation

Information

were

not

considered

to

be

excessive;

(4) found

that

RIM's

reported

profitability

with

respect

to

the

Fund

and

Underlying

Fund

was

not

considered

to

be

excessive

in

light

of

the

nature,

scope

and

overall

quality

of

the

investment

management

and

other

services

provided

by

RIM

and

applicable

judicial

and

regulatory

guidance;

and

(5) found

that

the

Advisory

Fee

charged

by

RIM

appropriately

reflects

any

economies

of

scale

realized

by

such

Fund

or

Underlying

Fund

in

light

of

various

factors,

including

potential

negative

implications

for

significant

future

Fund

asset

growth

if

additional

insurance

companies

do

not

make

the

Funds

available

to

their

Insurance

Contract

Holders;

the

Advisory

breakpoints

that

are

in

place

for

certain

Underlying

Funds;

in

the

case

of

Manager-of

Managers

Underlying

Funds,

the

variability

of

Money

Manager

Fees

and

other

factors

associated

with

the

manager-of-managers

structure;

and

RIM's

advice

that

it

does

not

believe

it

will

experience

meaningful

economies

of

scale.

The

Board

concluded

that,

under

the

circumstances

and

based

on

RIM's

performance

information

and

reviews

for

each

Fund

and

Underlying

Fund,

the

performance

of

each

of

the

Funds

and

Underlying

Funds

supported

the

continuation

of

the

RIM

Agreement.

In

assessing

the

performance

of

the

Funds

and

the

Underlying

Funds

with

at

least

three

years

of

performance

history,

the

Board

focused

on

each

Fund's

performance

for

the

3-year

period

ended

December

31,

2024

as

most

relevant,

but

also

considered

Fund

and

Underlying

Fund

performance

for

the

1-year

and,

where

applicable,

5-year

periods

ended

on

such

date.

In

reviewing

the

performance

of

the

Funds

and

Underlying

Funds

generally,

the

Board

took

into

consideration

various

steps

taken

by

RIM

in

the

past

few

years

to

enhance

the

performance

of

certain

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds,

including

changes

in

Money

Managers

or

their

allocations,

changes

to

investment

strategies,

and

RIM's

implementation

or

expansion

of

its

Direct

Management

Services

and

other

strategies,

which

may

not

yet

be

fully

reflected

in

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

investment

results.

With

respect

to

the

Moderate

Strategy

Fund,

the

Third-Party

Information

showed

that

the

Fund's

performance

was

ranked

in

the

fifth

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

for

each

of

the

1-,

3-

and

5-year

periods

ended

December

31,

2024. With

respect

to

the

Balanced

Strategy

Fund,

the

Third-Party

Information

showed

that

the

Fund's

performance

was

ranked

in

the

fourth

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

for

each

of

the

1-

and

3-year

periods

ended

December

31,

2024,

and

was

ranked

in

the

fifth

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

for

the

5-year

period

ended

on

such

date.

The

performance

of

each

of

the

other

Funds

ranked

in

the

third

quintile

of

its

Performance

Universe

or

better

for

the

3-year

period

ended

December

31,

2024. The

Board

considered

RIM's

explanation

that

the

underperformance

of

the

Moderate

Strategy

Fund

and

Balanced

Strategy

Fund

relative

to

their

respective

Comparable

Funds

for

the

3-year

period

was

driven

by

a

combination

of

asset

allocation

differences

and

active

performance

of

the

Underlying

Funds.

RIM

noted,

among

other

things,

that

the

Funds

are

designed

to

be

broadly

diversified

across

asset

classes

to

harvest

diversification

benefits

and

improve

risk

adjusted

performance

over

a

strategic

horizon,

and

that

over

the

3-year

period,

some

of

these

diversified

exposures

have

not

been

accretive

to

the

Funds'

performance

relative

to

peers.

RIM

further

noted

that,

incrementally,

several

of

the

Underlying

Funds

underperformed

their

respective

benchmarks

and

contributed

to

the

underperformance

of

the

Funds.

RIM

also

noted

that

the

Funds'

target

strategic

asset

allocations

were

modified

in

2023,

with

the

objective

of

improving

return

potential

given

the

current

capital

markets

environment

and

capital

markets

forecasts,

and

the

Funds'

target

strategic

asset

allocations

also

were

modified

in

2025. In

evaluating

performance,

the

Board

considered

each

Fund's

and

Underlying

Fund's

performance

not

only

relative

to

its

Comparable

Funds,

but

also

in

absolute

terms

and

relative

to

appropriate

benchmarks

and

indices.

The

Board

considered

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds'

performance

relative

to

their

primary

or

secondary

benchmarks,

whichever

RIM

uses

to

assess

Fund

performance,

in

light

of

RIM's

advice

that

its

investment

philosophy

and

process

seek

to

combine

investment

managers

to

produce

benchmark-beating

returns

with

above-average

consistency.

The

also

considered

the

Money

changes

that

have

been

made

during

the

past

year

and

that

the

performance

of

Money

continues

to

impact

the

performance

of

the

Funds

and

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Funds

for

periods

prior

and

subsequent

to

their

termination.

Further,

the

Board

considered

the

implementation

of

additional

strategies

or

refinements

to

strategies

discussed

in

the

Information

and/or

prior

Board

meetings

that

have

been

and

may

be

employed

by

RIM

in

respect

of

certain

Underlying

Funds.

After

considering

the

foregoing

and

other

relevant

factors,

including

factors

described

above,

the

Board

concluded

in

respect

of

each

Fund

and

Underlying

Fund

that

continuation

of

the

RIM

Agreement

would

be

in

the

best

interest

of

such

Fund

and

its

shareholders

and

voted

to

approve

the

continuation

of

the

RIM

Agreement.

At

with

respect

to

the

evaluation

of

the

terms

of

portfolio

with

Money

for

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

the

Board

received

and

considered

information

from

reporting,

among

other

things,

for

each

Money

the

Money

performance

over

from

soft

dollar

arrangements

or

commissions

paid

to

any

affiliated

broker-dealer

through

which

a

discretionary

Money

Manager

may

execute

trades.

RIM

recommended

that

each

of

the

Money

Managers

be

retained

for

its

current

discretionary

or

non-discretionary

assignment

at

its

current

fee

rate.

In

doing

so,

RIM,

as

it

has

in

the

past,

advised

the

Board

that

it

does

not

regard

Money

Manager

profitability

or

economies

of

scale

as

relevant

to

its

evaluation

of

the

portfolio

management

contracts

with

Money

Managers

because

the

willingness

of

Money

Managers

to

serve

in

such

capacity

depends

upon

arm's-length

negotiations

with

RIM;

RIM

is

aware

of

the

standard

fee

rates

charged

by

Money

Managers

to

other

clients;

and

RIM

believes

that

the

fees

agreed

upon

with

Money

Managers

are

reasonable

and

appropriate

in

light

of

the

anticipated

quality

of

investment

advisory

services

to

be

rendered.

The

Board

accepted

RIM's

explanation

of

the

relevance

of

Money

Manager

profitability

in

light

of

RIM's

belief

that

such

fees

are

reasonable;

the

Board's

findings

as

to

the

acceptability

of

the

Advisory

Fee

paid

by

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund;

and

the

fact

that

each

Money

Manager's

fee

is

paid

by

RIM.

Based

upon

RIM's

recommendations,

together

with

relevant

Agreement

Evaluation

Information,

the

Board

concluded

that

the

fees

paid

to

the

Money

Managers

of

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

are

acceptable

in

light

of

RIM's

assessment

of

the

quality

of

the

investment

advisory

services

provided

and

that

continuation

of

the

portfolio

management

contract

with

each

Money

Manager

of

each

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

would

be

in

the

best

interests

of

the

Manager-of-Managers

Underlying

Fund

and

its

shareholders.
