About this Product
The Voya Strategic Allocation Portfolios are a suite of three actively managed asset allocation portfolios. The portfolios invest in a combination of underlying funds that in turn invest in varying degrees, among several classes of equities, fixed-income securities and money market instruments. It is important for investors to regularly assess their risk profile to ensure that they are invested in a diversified portfolio that appropriately meets their needs over time. The Voya Strategic Allocation Moderate Portfolio invests in a combination of Underlying Funds that reflects an allocation of approximately 65% in equity securities and 35% in fixed-income securities. The Underlying Funds provide exposure to a wide range of traditional asset classes which includes stocks, bonds and cash and non-traditional asset classes (also known as alternative strategies) which includes real estate, commodities, floating rate loans and absolute return strategies. Absolute return strategies are intended to produce returns that are not correlated or are inversely correlated with equity index performance.
Investment Objective
The Portfolio seeks to provide total return (i.e., income and capital appreciation, both realized and unrealized).

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 Adviser has contractually agreed to limit expenses of the Portfolio. This expense limitation agreement excludes interest, taxes, investment-related costs, leverage expenses, and extraordinary expenses and may be subject to possible recoupment. Please see the Portfolio's prospectus for more information. The expense limits will continue through at least 2023-05-01. Expenses are being waived to the contractual cap. The Portfolio's Acquired (Underlying) Funds Fees and Expenses are based on a weighted average of the fees and expenses of the Underlying Funds in which it invests. The amount of fees and expenses of the Underlying funds borne by a Portfolio will vary based on the Portfolio's allocation of assets to, and annualized net expenses of, the particular Underlying Funds during the Portfolio's fiscal year.
An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the Fund(s) carefully before investing.

Returns-Based Characteristics
As of May 31, 2022
| 3 Year | 5 Year | 10 Year | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard Deviation Standard Deviation: A measure of the degree to which an individual probability value varies from the distribution mean. The higher the number, the greater the risk. | 13.42 | 11.58 | 9.46 |
| 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. A portfolio with a beta of 1.0 behaves exactly like the index. A beta less than 1.0 suggests lower risk than the index, while a beta greater than 1.0 indicates a risk level higher than the index. | 0.70 | 0.67 | 0.67 |
| R2 R2: The proportion of the variation in a portfolio's returns that can be explained by the variability of the returns of an index. High R-squared (close to 1.0) is usually consistent with broad diversification. | 0.98 | 0.97 | 0.95 |
| Alpha Alpha: A measure of risk-adjusted performance; alpha reflects the difference between a portfolio's actual return and the return that could be expected give its risk as measured by beta. | -3.42 | -2.78 | -1.78 |
| Sharpe Ratio Sharpe Ratio: A risk-adjusted measure calculated using standard deviation and excess return to determine reward per unit of risk. The higher the Sharpe ratio, the better the portfolio's historical risk-adjusted performance. | 0.57 | 0.48 | 0.76 |
| Information Ratio Information Ratio: The ratio of portfolio returns in excess of a market index to the variability of those excess returns; in effect, information ratio describes the value added by active management in relation to the risk taken to achieve those returns. | -1.34 | -1.10 | -1.25 |

Disclosures
Principal Risks
Investment Risks: As with any portfolio, you could lose money on your investment in the Voya Strategic Allocation Portfolios. Although asset allocation seeks to optimize returns given various levels of risk tolerance, you still may lose money and experience volatility. Market and asset class performance may differ in the future from historical performance and the assumptions used to form the asset allocations for the Voya Strategic Allocation Portfolios. There is a risk that you could achieve better returns in an underlying portfolio or other portfolios representing a single asset class than in the Voya Strategic Allocation Portfolios. Please keep in mind, using asset allocation as part of your investment strategy neither assures nor guarantees better performance and cannot protect against loss in declining markets. The share price of the Portfolios normally changes daily based on changes in the value of the securities that the Portfolios hold. The investment strategies used may not produce the intended results. The principal risks of investing in the Portfolios and the circumstances reasonably likely to cause the value of your investment in the Portfolios to decline include: Affiliated Underlying Funds; Bank Instruments; Cash/Cash Equivalents; Commodities; Company; Credit; Credit Default Swaps; Currency; Derivative Instruments; Floating Rate Loans; Foreign Investments/Developing and Emerging Markets; Growth Investing; High-Yield Securities; Index Strategy; Interest in Loans; Interest Rate; Investing through Stock Connect; Liquidity; Market; Market Capitalization; Market Disruption and Geopolitical; Other Investment Companies; Prepayment and Extension; Real Estate Companies and Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”); and Value Investing. Investors should consult the Portfolio’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for a more detailed discussion of the Portfolio’s risks.
An investment in the Portfolio is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency.
