(1) derivatives that provide exposure to the international equity markets and (2) bonds. Pacific Life Fund Advisors LLC (PLFA), the investment adviser of the Fund, manages the international equity portion of the Fund while Fidelity Diversifying Solutions LLC (FDS) manages the bond portion of the Fund as sub-adviser to that portion of the Fund. PLFA and FDS normally invest the Funds assets across different groups of industries/sectors, but may invest a significant percentage of the Funds assets in issuers in a single sector at their investment discretion in seeking the investment goal of the Fund. As of December 31, 2024, a significant portion of the Fund is represented by companies in the Financial sector. International Equity portion: The term international equity in the Funds name refers to derivative investments used to gain exposure to the international equity markets. For the international equity portion of the Fund, PLFA seeks to gain exposure to the international equity markets using derivatives in a notional amount approximately equal to the Funds net assets. Because fewer assets are generally required to gain investment exposure using derivatives than with securities directly, PLFA allocates the remaining assets to the bond portion of the Fund. These derivatives are total return swap agreements and futures contracts. PLFA seeks to achieve the Funds investment goal in this portion of the Fund by gaining exposure to the international equity markets through total return swap agreements and futures contracts on the MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East (EAFE) Index (the Index), an equity securities index that represents the large- and mid-capitalization equity markets across various developed countries, including countries in Europe, Australasia and the Far East, excluding the U.S. and Canada. This portion of the Fund may also invest in futures contracts on other international equity indices to gain exposure to the international equity markets. Using derivatives such as total return swap agreements and futures contracts is a way to obtain investment exposure to the international equity market, as represented by the particular index, and seek the returns of that index without purchasing all of the securities in the index. PLFA will also seek to achieve additional gains above the Index by making specific investment decisions for the Fund as it sees investment opportunities (incremental alpha). To seek incremental alpha, PLFA may use total return swap agreements and/or futures contracts to implement its investment views on sub-asset classes within the overall international equity markets, such as international growth or international value, or single countries or geographic regions. This could involve, for example, buying total return swap agreements on an international growth index to express a positive view on international growth as a sub-asset class. Another example could be hedging out part of the international growth portion of the Index using derivatives, resulting in an overweight to the international value portion, or doing the opposite. Bond portion: The term bond in the Funds name refers to debt securities and derivatives that provide exposure to debt securities. The bond portion of the Fund will be managed by FDS to seek to contribute to returns in excess of the Index returns (or alpha), to earn income to offset the cost of the Funds derivatives investments, and to maintain collateral for the Funds derivatives exposure. This portion of the Fund will be invested primarily in investment grade debt securities, including U.S. debt and U.S. dollar-denominated debt issued by foreign entities in developed markets, and repurchase agreements for those securities. Under normal circumstances, this portion of the Fund is expected to maintain an average credit quality of A- or higher and a weighted average duration that is between 0 and 2.75 years. Duration is often used to measure a bonds sensitivity to interest rates. The longer this portion of the Funds duration, the more sensitive it is to interest rate risk. The shorter this portion of the Funds duration, the less sensitive it is to interest rate risk. When selecting investments for this portion of the Fund, FDS evaluates sectors of the bond market and individual securities within these sectors. FDS selects U.S. dollar-denominated bonds from several sectors including: U.S. and foreign developed market government securities (including agencies); investment grade corporate bonds; mortgage-related securities; asset-backed securities; and cash equivalents. In addition, FDS may use derivatives, including buying or selling options or futures contracts on a debt security or an index of debt securities, or entering into credit default swaps and interest rate swaps, including options thereon ( i.e. , swaptions), primarily to manage risks of the debt security investments by increasing or decreasing the exposure to risk factors associated with those investments or as a substitute for investing in the debt securities directly. For example, FDS could use U.S. Treasury futures contracts to manage interest rate risk or credit default swaps to manage credit risk of corporate bonds or gain exposure to debt security investments in a certain sector. This portion of the Fund may also invest in debt securities issued pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (Rule 144A securities). FDS may purchase or sell investments for this portion of the Fund for a variety of reasons, such as to adjust the Funds average maturity, duration, or credit quality or to shift assets into and out of higher yielding or lower yielding securities or different sectors. This portion of the Fund may lend its portfolio holdings to certain financial institutions. Show less
