You can find the Fund's Prospectus and other information about the Fund, including the Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") and most recent reports to shareholders, online at https://www.jackson.com/fund-literature.html. You can also get this information at no cost by calling 1-800-644-4565 (Annuity and Life Service Center), 1-800-599-5651 (NY Annuity and Life Service Center), 1-800-777-7779 (for contracts purchased through a bank or financial institution) or 1-888-464-7779 (for NY contracts purchased through a bank or financial institution), or by sending an email request to <u>ProspectusRequest@jackson.com</u>.

**Principal Investment Strategies.** The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its assets (net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities. A significant portion of the Fund's assets are invested in publicly traded common stocks of U.S. companies.

The Fund may invest in equity securities of foreign companies in both developed and emerging markets.

The Fund may also invest in U.S. Treasury securities.

The Fund is classified as "non-diversified," which means that it may invest a larger percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund.

The Fund has flexibility in the relative weighting of each asset class and expects to vary the percentages of assets invested in each asset class from time to time. JNAM's allocations to the underlying Sub-Advisers will be a function of a variety of factors including each underlying strategy's expected returns, volatility, correlation, and contribution to the Fund's overall risk profile.

Three unaffiliated investment managers ("Sub-Advisers") generally provide day to day management for a portion of the Fund's assets (each portion is sometimes referred to as a "sleeve"). Each Sub-Adviser may use different investment strategies in managing Fund assets, acts independently from the others, and uses its own methodology for selecting investments. Jackson National Asset Management, LLC ("JNAM" or "Adviser") is responsible for identifying and retaining the Sub-Advisers for the selected strategies and for monitoring the services provided by the Sub-Advisers. JNAM provides qualitative and quantitative supervision as part of its process for selecting and monitoring the Sub-Advisers. JNAM is also responsible for selecting the Fund's investment strategies and for determining the amount of Fund assets to allocate to each Sub-Adviser. Based on JNAM's ongoing evaluation of the Sub-Advisers, JNAM may adjust allocations among Sub-Advisers.

JNAM also may choose to allocate the Fund's assets to additional Sub-Advisers or to replace/remove Sub-Advisers in the future. There is no assurance that any or all of the strategies discussed in this prospectus will be used by JNAM or the Sub-Advisers.

JNAM may also manage Fund assets directly to seek to enhance returns, or to hedge and to manage the Fund's cash and short-term instruments.

The Fund (all sleeves collectively) may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments that are assets. The Fund considers investments in private equity securities and hedge funds as illiquid investments.

The Adviser may allocate up to 10% of the Fund's total assets in other investment companies, which will primarily be in private funds or other pooled investment vehicles that would qualify as "investment companies" under the 1940 Act but for Sections 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act ("Private Funds").

Below are the principal investment strategies for each Sub-Adviser's strategy, but the Sub-Advisers may also implement other investment strategies in keeping with their respective strategy's objective.

*GQG Strategy*

GQG Partners LLC ("GQG") constructs the GQG Strategy by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies, including warrants and preferred stocks. The GQG Strategy may invest in initial public offerings ("IPOs") and securities of companies with any market capitalization. GQG considers a company to be a U.S. company if: (i) at least 50% of the company's assets are located in the U.S.; (ii) at least 50% of the company's revenue is generated in the U.S.; (iii) the company is organized, conducts its principal operations, or maintains its principal place of business or principal manufacturing facilities in the U.S.; (iv) the company's securities are traded principally in the U.S.; or (v) GQG otherwise believes that the company's assets are exposed to the economic fortunes and risks of the U.S. (because, for example, GQG believes that the company's growth is dependent on the U.S.).

In managing the GQG Strategy, GQG typically pursues a "growth style" of investing as it seeks to capture market inefficiencies which GQG believes are driven by investors' propensity to be short-sighted and overly focused on quarter-to-quarter price movements rather than a company's fundamentals over a longer time horizon (5 years or more). Specifically, GQG seeks to buy companies that it believes are reasonably priced and have strong fundamental business characteristics, such as modest leverage, strong rates of return on equity and sustainable earnings and/or cash flow growth. GQG seeks to outperform peers over a full market cycle by seeking to capture market upside while limiting downside risk. GQG may also purchase stocks that would not fall into the traditional "growth" style box. In constructing its portfolio of securities, GQG is not constrained by sector or industry weights in the portfolio's benchmark and, at times, emphasize one or more particular industries or sectors in the portfolio construction process. GQG relies on individual stock selection driven by a bottom-up research process rather than seeking to add value based on "top-down", macro based criteria.

The GQG Strategy's equity investments also may include sponsored and un-sponsored depositary receipts (including American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"), European Depositary Receipts ("EDRs"), and Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs")), which are certificates typically issued by a bank or trust company that represent ownership interests in securities of non-U.S. companies.

*River Road Strategy*

River Road Asset Management, LLC ("River Road") constructs the River Road Strategy by investing primarily in equity securities of large-capitalization U.S. companies that River Road believes are undervalued. The River Road Strategy's equity investments may include common stock, foreign securities (directly and through depositary receipts, including ADRs, EDRs, and GDRs), and real estate investment trusts ("REITs").

The River Road Strategy may also invest in common stock of companies of other market capitalizations (measured at the time of acquisition), and publicly traded partnerships, including, but not limited to, master limited partnerships.

*WCM Strategy*

WCM Investment Management, LLC ("WCM") constructs the WCM Strategy by investing in equity securities of quality growth companies. WCM considers quality growth companies to have superior growth prospects, high returns on invested capital, and low or no debt. In constructing the WCM Strategy, WCM considers qualitative elements, such as corporate culture and the strength, quality, and trustworthiness of management.

The WCM Strategy's equity investments may include depositary receipts (including ADRs, EDRs, and GDRs).

**Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund.** An investment in the Fund is not guaranteed. As with any mutual fund, the value of the Fund's shares will change, and you could lose money by investing in the Fund. The principal risks associated with investing in the Fund include:

· *Equity securities risk* – Common and preferred stocks represent equity ownership in a company. Stock markets are volatile,
and equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed-income securities. The price of equity or equity-related securities
will fluctuate and can decline and reduce the value of a portfolio investing in equity or equity-related securities. The value of equity
or equity-related securities purchased or held by the Fund could decline if the financial condition of the companies the Fund invests
in decline or if overall market and economic conditions deteriorate. They may also decline due to factors that affect a particular industry
or industries, such as labor shortages or an increase in production costs and competitive conditions within an industry. In addition,
they may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a company or industry, such as real or perceived
adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates or generally
adverse investor sentiment.

· *Market risk* – Portfolio securities may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, such as
real or perceived adverse economic, political, or regulatory conditions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor
sentiment, public health issues, including widespread disease and virus epidemics or pandemics, war, terrorism or natural disasters, among
others. Adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities. The values of securities
may fall due to factors affecting a particular issuer, industry or the securities market as a whole.

· *Managed portfolio risk* – As an actively managed portfolio, the Fund's portfolio manager(s) make decisions to buy and
sell holdings in the Fund's portfolio. Because of this, the value of the Fund's investments could decline because the financial
condition of an issuer may change (due to such factors as management performance, reduced demand or overall market changes), financial
markets may fluctuate or overall prices may decline, the Sub-Advisers' investment techniques could fail to achieve the Fund's
investment objective or negatively affect the Fund's investment performance, or legislative, regulatory, or tax developments may
affect the investment techniques available to the Sub-Adviser of the Fund. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the
Fund will be achieved.

· *Investment strategy risk* **–** The Sub-Adviser uses the principal investment strategies and other investment strategies
to seek to achieve the Fund's investment objective. Investment decisions made by the Sub-Adviser in accordance with these investment
strategies may not produce the returns the Sub-Adviser expected, and may cause the Fund's shares to decline in value or may cause
the Fund to underperform other funds with similar investment objectives.

· *Sector risk* – Companies with similar characteristics may be grouped together in broad categories called sectors. Sector
risk is the risk that securities of companies within specific sectors of the economy can perform differently than the overall market.
For example, this may be due to changes in the regulatory or competitive environment or changes in investor perceptions regarding a sector.
Because the Fund may allocate relatively more assets to certain sectors than others, the Fund's performance may be more susceptible
to any developments which affect those sectors emphasized by the Fund. In addition, the Fund could underperform other funds investing
in similar sectors or comparable benchmarks because of the investment manager's choice of securities within such sector.

· *Large-capitalization investing risk* – Large-capitalization stocks as a group could fall out of favor with the market,
which may cause the Fund to underperform funds that focus on other types of stocks.

· *Investment style risk* – The returns from a certain investment style may be lower than the returns from the overall stock
market. Growth stock prices frequently reflect projections of future earnings or revenues, and if earnings growth expectations are not
met, their stock prices will likely fall, which may reduce the value of a Fund's investment in those stocks. Value stocks may not
increase in price if other investors fail to recognize the company's value or the factors that are expected to increase the price of the
security do not occur. Over market cycles, different investment styles may sometimes outperform other investment styles (for example,
growth investing may outperform value investing).

· *Non-diversification risk* **–** The Fund is non-diversified, as defined by the 1940 Act, and as such may invest in
the securities of a limited number of issuers and may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer. Therefore, a decline
in the market price of a particular security held by the Fund may affect the Fund's performance more than if the Fund were a diversified
investment company.

· *Mid-capitalization and small-capitalization investing risk* – The securities of mid-capitalization and small-capitalization
companies involve greater risks than those associated with larger, more established companies and may be subject to more abrupt or erratic
price movements. Securities of such issuers may lack sufficient market liquidity to enable a Fund to effect sales at an advantageous time
or without a substantial drop in price. Both mid-capitalization and small-capitalization companies often have narrower markets and more
limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies. As a result, their performance can be more volatile
and they face greater risk of business failure, which could increase the volatility of a Fund's portfolio. Generally, the smaller
the company size, the greater these risks become.

· *Investments in IPOs risk* **–** IPOs issued by unseasoned companies with little or no operating history are risky and
highly volatile.

· *Issuer risk* **–** The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than the
market as a whole and can perform differently from the market as a whole. A security's value may decline for reasons that directly
relate to the issuer, such as management performance, corporate governance, financial leverage and reduced demand for the issuer's
goods or services.

· *Foreign securities risk* – Investments in, or exposure to, foreign securities involve risks not typically associated with
U.S. investments. These risks include, among others, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values, possible imposition of foreign withholding
or other taxes on income payable on the securities, as well as adverse political, social and economic developments, such as political
upheaval, acts of terrorism, financial troubles, sanctions or the threat of new or modified sanctions, or natural disasters. Many foreign
securities markets, especially those in emerging market countries, are less stable, smaller, less liquid, and less regulated than U.S.
securities markets, and the costs of trading in those markets is often higher than in U.S. securities markets. There may also be less
publicly available information about issuers of foreign securities compared to issuers of U.S. securities. In addition, the economies
of certain foreign markets may not compare favorably with the economy of the United States with respect to issues such as growth of gross
national product, reinvestment of capital, resources and balance of payments position.

· *Depositary receipts risk –* Depositary receipts, such as American depositary receipts ("ADRs"), global depositary
receipts ("GDRs"), and European depositary receipts ("EDRs"), may be issued in sponsored or un-sponsored programs.
They may be traded in the over-the-counter ("OTC") market or on a regional exchange, or may otherwise have limited liquidity.
The prices of depositary receipts may differ from the prices of securities upon which they are based. In a sponsored program, a security
issuer has made arrangements to have its securities traded in the form of depositary receipts. In an un-sponsored program, the issuer
may not be directly involved in the creation of the program. Holders of un-sponsored depositary receipts generally bear all the costs
of the facility. The depository usually charges fees upon deposit and withdrawal of the underlying securities, the conversion

of dividends into U.S. dollars or other currency, the disposition of non-cash distributions, and the performance of other services. Depositary receipts involve many of the same risks as direct investments in foreign securities. These risks include: fluctuations in currency exchange rates, which are affected by international balances of payments and other economic and financial conditions; government intervention; and speculation. With respect to certain foreign countries, there is the possibility of expropriation or nationalization of assets, confiscatory taxation, political and social upheaval, and economic instability. Investments in depositary receipts that are exchange-traded or OTC may also subject the Fund to liquidity risk. This risk is enhanced in connection with OTC depositary receipts.

· *REIT investment risk* **–** The risks of investing in REITs include certain risks associated with the direct ownership
of real estate and the real estate industry in general. These include risks related to general, regional and local economic conditions;
difficulties in valuing and disposing of real estate; fluctuations in interest rates and property tax rates; shifts in zoning laws; environmental
regulations and other governmental action; cash flow dependency; increased operating expenses; lack of availability of mortgage funds;
losses due to natural disasters; overbuilding; losses due to casualty or condemnation; changes in property values and rental rates; the
management skill and creditworthiness of the REIT manager; and other factors. REITs may have limited financial resources, may trade less
frequently and in limited volume, may engage in dilutive offerings of securities and may be more volatile than other securities. REITs
could be adversely affected by failure to maintain their exemptions from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
or failure to qualify for the "dividends paid deduction" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which allows
REITs to reduce their corporate taxable income for dividends paid to their shareholders.

· *Warrants risk –* If the price of the underlying stock does not rise above the exercise price before the warrant expires,
the warrant generally expires without any value and the Fund loses any amount it paid for the warrant. As a result, investments in warrants
may involve substantially more risk than investments in common stock. Warrants may trade in the same markets as their underlying stock;
however, the price of the warrant does not necessarily move with the price of the underlying stock.

· *Preferred stock risk* – Preferred stock represents an equity interest in a company that generally entitles the holder
to receive, in preference to the holders of other stocks such as common stocks, dividends and a fixed share of the proceeds resulting
from a liquidation of the company. Risks of preferred securities include (i) the ability of the issuer to defer or omit distributions
for a stated period in its sole discretion, (ii) the potential for the security to lose value based on the credit worthiness of the issuer
or its decision to defer distributions, (iii) the potential for the security to lose value in light of the increase in market interest
rates (iv) the potential for the issuer to call (repay) the security or extend the term of the security, subject to the security's
terms and issuer's discretion, which may impact the value of the security in light of prevailing market interest rates at that time,
(v) the risk that the preferred securities may have a less liquid market than government securities or other equity securities issued
by the issuer, and (vi) being subject to the decisions of voting shareholders of an issuer as preferred securities typically contain limited,
or no, voting rights.

· *Portfolio turnover risk* **–** Frequent changes in the securities held by the Fund, including investments made on a
shorter-term basis or in derivative instruments or in instruments with a maturity of one year or less at the time of acquisition, may
increase transaction costs, which may reduce performance.

· *Master limited partnership risk* – An investment in MLP units involves some risks that differ from an investment in the
common stock of a corporation. Holders of MLP units have limited control on matters affecting the partnership. Investing in MLPs involves
certain risks related to investing in the underlying assets of the MLPs and risks associated with pooled investment vehicles. MLPs holding
credit-related investments are subject to interest rate risk and the risk of default on payment obligations by debt issuers. MLPs that
concentrate in a particular industry or a particular geographic region are subject to risks associated with such industry or region. The
benefit derived from the Fund's investment in MLPs is largely dependent on the MLPs being treated as partnerships for federal income
tax purposes. Certain MLPs may be illiquid securities.

<br> **Performance.** The performance information shown provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund's performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund's average annual returns compared with those of a broad-based securities market index. Performance results include the effect of expense waiver/reduction arrangements for some or all of the periods shown. If such arrangements had not been in place, performance for those periods would have been lower. The Fund's past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

The returns shown in the bar chart and table do not include charges that will be imposed by variable insurance products. If these amounts were reflected, returns would be less than those shown.

Effective October 21, 2024, the Fund was combined with the JNL/Baillie Gifford U.S. Equity Growth Fund ("Acquired Fund"), with the Fund as the surviving Fund. The performance shown is the Fund's historical performance and does not reflect the performance of the Acquired Fund.

**Purchase and Redemption of Fund Shares** 

Only separate accounts of Jackson National Life Insurance Company ("Jackson National") or Jackson National Life Insurance Company of New York ("Jackson National NY") and series, including fund of funds, of registered investment companies in which either or both of those insurance companies invest may purchase shares of the Fund. You may invest indirectly in the Fund through your purchase of a variable annuity or life insurance contract issued by a separate account of Jackson National or Jackson National NY that invests directly, or through a fund of funds, in this Fund. Any minimum initial or subsequent investment requirements and redemption procedures are governed by the applicable separate account through which you invest indirectly.

This Fund serves as an underlying investment by insurance companies, affiliated investment companies, and retirement plans for funding variable annuity and life insurance contracts and retirement plans.

**Tax Information**

The Fund expects to be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and does not expect to make regular distributions (other than in redemption of Fund shares) to shareholders, which generally are the participating insurance companies investing in the Fund through separate accounts of Jackson National or Jackson National NY and mutual funds owned directly or indirectly by such separate accounts. You should consult the prospectus of the appropriate separate account or description of the plan for a discussion of the U.S. federal income tax consequences to you of your contract, policy, or plan.

**Payments to Broker-Dealers and Financial Intermediaries**

If you invest in the Fund under a variable insurance contract or a plan that offers a variable insurance contract as a plan option through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a financial institution), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's Website for more information.
