Disclosures

Principal Risk

All investing involves risks of fluctuating prices and the uncertainties of rates of return and yield. As with any portfolio, you could lose money on your investment in the Voya Balanced Large Cap Core Value SMA. Stocks are more volatile than bonds, and portfolios with a higher concentration of stocks are more likely to experience greater fluctuations in value than portfolios with a higher concentration of bonds. Investing in bonds also entails credit risk and interest rate risk. The strategic allocation of the Voya Balanced Large Cap Core Value SMA is expected to remain constant; as a result, the SMA’s performance will depend on the performance of the underlying investment strategies rather than tactical changes to its asset allocations. Market and asset class performance may differ in the future from historical performance and the assumptions used to form the strategic asset allocations for the Voya Balanced Large Cap Core Value SMA. There is risk that you could achieve better returns in an underlying portfolio or other portfolios representing a single asset class than in the Voya Balanced Large Cap Core Value SMA.
