Voya’s Target Retirement Funds are designed to specifically balance the evolving risk-return profiles of participants as they age to maximize the probability of a successful retirement. The target date in the funds’ name is the approximate date when investors plan to start withdrawing their money.
A Portfolio that Adjusts as Participants' Careers Progress
At Voya, our glide path relative to peers has a higher equity allocation for younger participants to build wealth and a lower equity allocation for participants near and in retirement to reduce risk in those critical years. Younger participants can afford to take on more investment risk in exchange for greater potential returns. However, in the later years, participants are more vulnerable to a market downturn, particularly the day they retire.

The Portfolio may periodically deviate from the Target Allocation, generally within the range of +/- 10% relative to the current Target Allocation. The sub-adviser may determine to deviate by a wider margin in order to protect the Portfolio, achieve its investment objective, or to take advantage of particular opportunities. This chart is for illustrative purposes only and may not reflect the current allocations of the Voya Target Solution Trust Series. This illustration is intended to show how the Voya Target Solution Trust Series transitions over time.

The performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance information shown. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Portfolio will fluctuate, so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. See above "Average Annual Total Returns %" for performance information current to the most recent month-end.
Returns for the other share classes will vary due to different charges and expenses. Performance assumes reinvestment of distributions and does not account for taxes.
Total investment return at net asset value has been calculated assuming a purchase at net asset value at the beginning of the period and a sale at net asset value at the end of the period; and assumes reinvestment of dividends, capital gain distributions and return of capital distributions/allocations, if any, in accordance with the provisions of the dividend reinvestment plan. Net asset value equals total Fund assets net of Fund expenses such as operating costs and management fees. Total investment return at net asset value is not annualized for periods less than one year.
The S&P Target Date® Index Series consists of twelve multi-asset class indices, each corresponding to a particular target retirement date. The benchmark asset allocation and glide path for each index in the series is determined once a year and represents market consensus across the universe of target date fund managers. The Index does not reflect fees, brokerage commissions, taxes or other expenses of investing. Investors cannot directly invest in an index.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.

| Beta Beta: The sensitivity of a portfolio's returns to changes in the return of the market as measured by the index or benchmark that represents the market.

Principal Risks
All investing involves risks of fluctuating prices and the uncertainties of rates of return and yield inherent in investing. You could lose money on your investment and any of the following risks, among others, could affect investment performance. The following principal risks are presented in alphabetical order which does not imply order of importance or likelihood: Affiliated Underlying Funds; Asset Allocation; Bank Instruments; Cash/ Cash Equivalents; Commodities; Company; Credit; Credit Default Swaps; Currency; Deflation; Derivative Instruments; Environmental, Social, and Governance (Funds-of-Funds); Floating Rate Loans; Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investments/ Developing and Emerging Markets; Growth Investing; High-Yield Securities; Index Strategy (Funds-of-Funds); Inflation-Indexed Bonds; Interest Rate; Liquidity; Market; Market Capitalization; Market Disruption and Geopolitical; Natural Resources/ Commodity Securities; Prepayment and Extension; Real Estate Companies and Real Estate Investment Trusts; U.S. Government Securities and Obligations; Underlying Funds; Value Investing. The “target date” is the approximate date when an investor plans to start withdrawing their money. When their target date is reached, they may have more or less than the original amount invested. For each target-date portfolio, until the day prior to its target date, the portfolio will seek to provide total returns consistent with an asset allocation targeted for an investor who is retiring in approximately each portfolio’s designated target year. On the target date, the portfolio will seek to provide a combination of total return and stability of principal. There is no guarantee that any investment option will achieve its stated objective. Principal value fluctuates and there is no guarantee of value at any time, including the target date. Important factors to consider when planning for retirement include your expected expenses, sources of income, and available assets. Before investing in the Voya Target Retirement Fund, weigh your objectives, time horizon, and risk tolerance. Diversification cannot assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market. Investors should consult the Fund’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a more detailed discussion of the Fund’s risks.
The fund discussed may be available to you as part of your employer sponsored retirement plan. There may be additional plan level fees resulting in personal performance that varies from stated performance. Please call your benefits office for more information.
