Strategy. The Fund operates under a fund of funds structure, investing in other mutual funds (the Underlying Funds). The Fund, under normal circumstances, invests approximately 70% of its assets in Underlying Funds that primarily invest in equity securities (stocks), and approximately 30% of its assets in Underlying Funds that primarily invest in fixed income securities (bonds). The Underlying Funds include, but are not limited to, funds that employ a passive investment style (i.e., index funds) and exchange-traded funds. The underlying index funds are advised by the Fund's investment adviser, Lincoln Financial Investments Corporation (the Adviser), and sub-advised by SSGA Funds Management, Inc.

The Fund, under normal circumstances, invests approximately 70% of its assets in Underlying Funds that primarily invest in equity securities (stocks), and approximately 30% of its assets in Underlying Funds that primarily invest in fixed income securities (bonds). The Underlying Funds include, but are not limited to, funds that employ a passive investment style (i.e., index funds) and exchange-traded funds. The underlying index funds are advised by the Fund's investment adviser, Lincoln Financial Investments Corporation (the Adviser), and sub-advised by SSGA Funds Management, Inc. The Adviser develops the Fund's asset allocation strategy based on the Fund's investment strategy. Through its investment in Underlying Funds, the Fund allocates a large percentage of assets to domestic and foreign equity securities (stocks), including stocks of small- and medium-cap companies and those with growth and value characteristics, and allocates a smaller percentage of assets to domestic fixed income securities (bonds), including U.S. Treasury securities, mortgage-backed securities (including to-be-announced transactions), corporate bonds and inflation-indexed bonds. Foreign securities may include securities of companies in emerging market countries. An Underlying Fund may invest a large percentage of its assets in issuers located in a single country, a small number of countries, or a particular geographic region. On at least an annual basis, the Adviser will reassess and may make revisions in the Funds asset allocation strategy consistent with the Fund's investment strategy and objective, including revising the weightings among the investments described above and adding or removing Underlying Funds from the asset allocation strategy. The Adviser also will periodically rebalance the weightings in the Underlying Funds to the current asset allocation strategy. In general, the Adviser does not anticipate making frequent changes in the asset allocation strategy and will not attempt to time the market. The Adviser uses various analytical tools and third-party research to construct the portfolio. The Underlying Fund selection is made based on the Funds particular asset allocation strategy, the Adviser's desired asset class exposures, and the investment styles and performance of the Underlying Funds. The Adviser also considers the portfolio characteristics and risk profile for each Underlying Fund over various periods and market environments to assess each Underlying Funds suitability as an investment. The full list of underlying funds used by the Fund is included in the Funds annual and semi-annual reports and quarterly holdings disclosures. Show less
