AZL^® Balanced Index Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL^® Balanced Index Strategy Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL^® Balanced Index Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) had a total return of 12.24%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 14.31% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Balanced Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund is a fund of funds that pursues broad diversification across four equity sub-portfolios and one fixed-income sub-portfolio. The four equity sub-portfolios pursue passive strategies that aim to achieve, before fees, returns similar to the S&P 500 Index, the S&P 400 Index², the S&P 600 Index³ and the MSCI EAFE Index⁴. The fixed-income sub-portfolio is an enhanced bond index strategy that seeks to achieve a return that exceeds that of the Bloomberg Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Generally, the Fund allocates 40% to 60% of its assets to the underlying equity index funds and between 40% and 60% to the underlying bond index fund.*

U.S. equities began the year with steady gains on low volatility. However, the emergence of the coronavirus (COVID-19) as a global pandemic sent equity markets into a freefall in late February. By late March, the S&P 500 fell more than 30% from its February peak. The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut rates by 150 bps (1.50%) and implemented asset-buying programs that increased its balance sheet by more than $3 trillion. These moves, coupled with a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package, succeeded in easing liquidity and reassuring investors, which led to a dramatic rebound in stock prices. By early June the S&P 500 had gained more than 40% from its March low, even as the pandemic crippled the U.S. economy, leading to a recession deeper than any since the Great Depression. Late in the year, promising news about vaccines helped push stock prices higher.

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index, returned 7.82% for the year, generally underperforming U.S. equities. Many global economies struggled with the slowdown in

exports, reduction in travel, and other challenges. Developed international equities trailed U.S. equities during the first three quarters of the year, but made a strong resurgence in the fourth quarter.

U.S. bonds gained during the year and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 7.51%. Yields tumbled in March, with the 10-year Treasury reaching an all-time low of 0.50%. The accommodative policies of the Fed coupled with investor demand helped keep rates low for most of the year. As investors regained their appetite for risk, yields on intermediate- and long-term bonds began to rise in August, leading to a gradual steepening of the yield curve. After widening sharply in March, investment-grade credit spreads narrowed throughout the rest of the year,

leaving spreads tighter at the end of the period than at the start, which led corporate bonds to outpace government bonds for the year. Falling interest rates led to a surge of refinancing, which limited returns for mortgage-backed securities.

The Fund underperformed its blended benchmark, the Balanced Composite Index, during the 12-month period. Its off-benchmark allocation to non-U.S., developed market equities detracted, as these stocks generally trailed U.S. stocks for the period. The Fund’s relative performance also suffered from its above-benchmark allocation to mid- and small-cap U.S. equities, which trailed their large-cap counterparts.*

The fixed income allocation contributed slightly to the Fund’s performance compared to the benchmark, the Balanced Composite Index, as its fixed income allocation benefited from overweight exposure to corporate bonds, and Treasury Inflation Protected Securities. However, the Fund’s focus on shorter duration detracted as interest rates fell during the year.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

The Fund’s portfolio composition is subject to change. There is no guarantee that any sectors mentioned will continue to perform well or that securities in such sectors will be held by the Fund in the future. The information contained in this commentary is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as a recommendation to purchase or sell securities in the sector mentioned. The Fund’s holdings and weightings are as of December 31, 2020.

¹	For a complete description of the Fund’s performance benchmarks please refer to page 2 of this report.

²	The Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400 Index (“S&P 400”) is the most widely used index for mid-sized companies. The S&P 400 covers 7% of the U.S. equities market, and is part of a series of S&P U.S. indexes that can be used as building blocks for portfolio composition.

The Standard & Poor’s SmallCap 600 Index (“S&P 600”) covers approximately 3% of the domestic equities market. Measuring the small-cap segment of the market that is typically renowned for poor trading liquidity and financial instability, the index is designed to be an efficient portfolio of companies that meet specific inclusion criteria to ensure that they are investable and financially viable.

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation with preservation of capital as an important consideration. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a combination of Index Strategy Underlying Funds that represent different classes in the Fund’s asset allocation.

Investment Concerns

The Fund invests in underlying funds, so its investment performance is directly related to the performance of those underlying funds. Before investing, investors should assess the risks associated with and types of investments made by each of the underlying funds in which the Fund invests.

International investing may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuations in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles or from economic or political instability in other nations.

Small-to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

The performance of the underlying funds is expected to be lower than that of the Indexes because of fees and expenses. Securities in which the underlying funds will invest may involve substantial risk and may be subject to sudden severe price declines.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. The performance data quoted represents past performance and current returns may be lower or higher. The investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. To obtain performance information current to the most recent month end, please visit www.Allianzlife.com.


Expense Ratio	Gross
AZL^® Balanced Index Strategy Fund		0.70	%

The above expense ratio is based on the current Fund prospectus dated May 1, 2020. The Manager and the Fund have entered into a written contract limiting operating expenses, excluding certain expenses (such as interest expense and acquired fund fees and expenses), to 0.20% through April 30, 2022. Additional information pertaining to the December 31, 2020 expense ratio can be found in the Financial Highlights.

Acquired fund fees and expenses are incurred indirectly by the Fund through the valuation of the Fund’s investments in the Permitted Underlying Funds. Accordingly, acquired fund fees and expenses affect the Fund’s total returns. Because these fees and expenses are not included in the Fund’s financial highlights, the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses, as shown in the current prospectus, do not correlate to the ratios of expenses to average net assets shown in the Financial Highlights. Without acquired fund fees and expenses the Fund’s gross expense ratio would be 0.09%.

The total return of the Fund does not reflect the effect of any insurance charges, the annual maintenance fee or the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Such charges, fees and tax payments would reduce the performance quoted.

The Fund’s performance is measured against the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500”), the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Balanced Composite Index (“Composite”). The S&P 500 is representative of 500 selected common stocks, most of which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and is a measure of the U.S. Stock market as a whole. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted performance benchmark for investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of at least one year. The Composite is a blended index comprised of (50%) S&P 500 and (50%) Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. These indexes are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting fees. The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for services provided to the Fund. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Expense Examples

(Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund (the “Fund”), you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution fees, and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. Please note that the expenses shown in each table do not reflect expenses that apply to the subaccount or the insurance contract. If the expenses that apply to the subaccount of the insurance contract were included, your costs would have been higher.

These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the periods presented below.

The Actual Expense table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.


	Beginning Account Value 7/1/20			Ending Account Value 12/31/20			Expenses Paid During Period 7/1/20 - 12/31/20*			Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 7/1/20 - 12/31/20

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	1,000.00		$	1,126.60		$	0.48		0.09	%

The Hypothetical Expense table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.


	Beginning Account Value 7/1/20			Ending Account Value 12/31/20			Expenses Paid During Period 7/1/20 - 12/31/20*			Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 7/1/20 - 12/31/20

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	1,000.00		$	1,024.68		$	0.46		0.09	%

*	Expenses are equal to the average account value multiplied by the Fund’s annualized expense ratio multiplied by 184/366 (the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year divided by the number of days in the fiscal year).

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2020

1. Organization

The Allianz Variable Insurance Products Fund of Funds Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 16, 2004. The Trust is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “1940 Act”) and thus is determined to be an investment company, and follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”. The Trust consists of 12 separate investment portfolios (collectively, the “Funds”), of which one is included in this report, the AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund (the “Fund”), and 11 are presented in separate reports. The Fund is a diversified series of the Trust.

The Fund is a “fund of funds”, which means that the Fund invests primarily in other mutual funds (the “Underlying Funds”). Underlying Funds invest in stock, bonds, and other securities and reflect varying amounts of potential investment risk and reward. The Underlying Funds record their investments at fair value. Periodically, the Fund will adjust its asset allocation as it seeks to achieve its investment objective.

The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of the Fund without par value. Shares of the Fund are available through the variable annuity contracts offered through the separate accounts of participating insurance companies. Currently, the Fund only offers its shares to separate accounts of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America and Allianz Life Insurance Company of New York, affiliates of the Trust and the Manager, as defined below.

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts with its vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund. However, based on experience, the Fund expects that risk of loss to be remote.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies conform with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Security Valuation

The Fund records its investments at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques used to determine fair value are further described in Note 4 below.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date. Net realized gains and losses on investments sold and on foreign currency transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except in the case of foreign securities, in which case dividends are recorded as soon as such information becomes available.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund distributes its dividends from net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, on an annual basis. The amount of distributions from net investment income and from net realized gains is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature (e.g., return of capital, net operating loss, reclassification of certain market discounts, gain/loss, paydowns, and distributions), such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences (e.g., wash sales and differing treatment on certain investments) do not require reclassification. Distributions to shareholders that exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes are reported as distributions of capital.

Expense Allocation

Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged directly to the Fund, while expenses attributable to more than one Fund are allocated among the respective Funds based upon relative net assets or some other reasonable method. Expenses which are attributable to more than one Trust are allocated across the Allianz Variable Insurance Products and Allianz Variable Insurance Products Fund of Funds Trusts based upon relative net assets or another reasonable basis. Allianz Investment Management LLC (the “Manager”), serves as the investment manager for the Trust and the Allianz Variable Insurance Products Trust.

Affiliated Securities Transactions

Pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act (the “Rule”), the Fund may engage in securities transactions with affiliated investment companies and advisory accounts managed by the Manager. Any such purchase or sale transaction must be effected without a brokerage commission or other remuneration, except for customary transfer fees. The transaction must be effected at the current market price, which is either the security’s last sale price on an exchange or, if there are no transactions in the security that day, at the average of the highest bid and lowest asked price. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund did not engage in any Rule 17a-7 transactions under the Rule.

3. Fees and Transactions with Affiliates and Other Parties

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2020

accordance with U.S. GAAP and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business, based on the daily net assets of the Fund, through April 30, 2022. Expenses incurred for investment advisory and management services are reflected on the Statement of Operations as “Manager fees.”

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the annual rate due to the Manager and the annual expense limit were as follows:


	Annual Rate			Annual Expense Limit

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund		0.05	%		0.20	%

Any amounts contractually waived or reimbursed by the Manager in a particular fiscal year will be subject to repayment by the Fund to the Manager to the extent that from time to time through the next three fiscal years the repayment will not cause the Fund’s expenses to exceed the lesser of the stated limit at the time of the waiver or the current stated limit. Any amounts recouped by the Manager during the year are reflected on the Statement of Operations as “Recoupment of prior expenses reimbursed by the Manager.” At December 31, 2020, there were no remaining contractual reimbursements subject to repayment by the Fund in subsequent years.

In addition, the Manager may voluntarily waive or reimburse additional fees in order to maintain more competitive expense ratios. Any voluntary waivers or reimbursements are not subject to repayment in subsequent years. Information on the total amount waived/reimbursed by the Manager or repaid to the Manager by the Fund during the year can be found on the Statement of Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2020, there were no voluntary waivers.

The Manager or an affiliate of the Manager serves as the investment adviser of certain underlying funds in which the Fund invests. At December 31, 2020, these underlying funds are noted as Affiliated Investment Companies in the Fund’s Schedule of Portfolio Investments. Additional information, including financial statements, about these Funds is available at www.allianzlife.com. The Manager or an affiliate of the Manager is paid a separate fee from the underlying funds for such services.

Pursuant to separate agreements between the Trust and the Manager, the Manager provides a Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) and certain compliance oversight and regulatory filing services to the Trust. Under these agreements, the Manager is entitled to an amount equal to a portion of the compensation and certain other expenses related to the individuals performing the CCO and compliance oversight services, as well as $100 per hour for time incurred in connection with the preparation and filing of certain documents with the SEC. The fees are paid to the Manager on a quarterly basis. The total expenses incurred by the Fund for these services are reflected on the Statement of Operations as “Administrative and compliance services fees.”

Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc. (“Citi” or the “Administrator”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup, Inc., with which an officer of the Trust is affiliated, serves as the Trust’s administrator and fund accountant, and assists the Trust in all aspects of its administration and operation. The Administrator is entitled to a fee, accrued daily and paid monthly. The Administrator is entitled to an annual fee for each additional class of shares of any Fund, certain annual fees in supporting fair values services, and a Trust-wide annual fee for providing infrastructure and support in implementing the written policies and procedures comprising the Fund’s compliance program. The Administrator is also reimbursed for certain expenses incurred. The total expenses incurred by the Fund for these services are reflected on the Statement of Operations as “Administration fees.”

FIS Investor Services LLC (“FIS”) serves as the Fund’s transfer agent. Under the Transfer Agent Agreement, the Trust pays FIS a fee for its services and reimburses FIS for all of their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing these services.

The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY Mellon” or the “Custodian”) serves as the Trust’s custodian and securities lending agent. For these services as custodian, the Funds pay BNY Mellon a fee based on a percentage of assets held on behalf of the Funds, plus certain out-of-pocket charges.

Allianz Life Financial Services, LLC (“ALFS”), an affiliate of the Manager, serves as distributor of the Fund. ALFS receives an annual Trust-wide annual fee of $7,500, paid by the Manager from its profits and not by the Trust, for recordkeeping and reporting services.

In addition, certain legal fees and expenses are paid to a law firm, Dorsey & Whitney LLP, of which the Secretary of the Fund through December 8, 2020 was Senior Counsel. During the year ended December 31, 2020, $2,890 was paid from the Fund relating to these fees and expenses.

Certain Officers and Trustees of the Trust are affiliated with the Manager or the Administrator. Such Officers (except for the Trust’s CCO as noted above) and Trustees receive no compensation from the Trust for serving in their respective roles. For their service to the Trust and to the Allianz Variable Insurance Products Trust, each non-interested Trustee receives a $182,500 annual Board retainer, the Lead Director receives an additional $45,625, the Chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee receives an additional $9,125 annually and the Chair of the Audit Committee receives an additional $9,125 annually. In addition, the Trustees are reimbursed for certain expenses associated with attending Board meetings.

4. Investment Valuation Summary

The valuation techniques employed by the Fund, as described below, maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in determining fair value. The inputs used for valuing the Fund’s investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

●

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets

●

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.)

●

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The inputs or methodology used for valuing investments is not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.

Investments in other investment companies are valued at their published net asset value (“NAV”). Security prices are generally provided by an independent third party pricing service approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 pm Eastern Time). The investments utilizing Level 1 valuations represent investments in open-end investment companies.

The following is a summary of the valuation inputs used as of December 31, 2020 in valuing the Fund’s investments based upon the three levels defined above:


Investment Securities:	Level 1			Level 2			Level 3			Total

Affiliated Investment Companies		$	417,115,269		$	—		$	—		$	417,115,269

Total Investment Securities		$	417,115,269		$	—		$	—		$	417,115,269

5. Security Purchases and Sales

For the year ended December 31, 2020, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities (excluding securities maturing less than one year from acquisition) were as follows:


	Purchases			Sales

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	72,322,145		$	84,581,873

6. Investment Risks

The risks below are presented in an order intended to facilitate readability. Their order does not imply that the realization of one risk is more likely to occur more frequently than another risk, nor does it imply that the realization of one risk is likely to have a greater adverse impact than another risk.

Derivatives Risk: The Fund may invest directly or through affiliated or unaffiliated mutual funds or unregistered investment pools in derivative instruments such as futures, options, and options on futures. A derivative is a financial contract whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate, or risk. Use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Derivatives are subject to a number of other risks, such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, and selection risk. Derivatives also involve the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in the value may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate, or index. Using derivatives may result in losses, possibly in excess of the principal amount invested. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances. The other party to a derivatives contract could default. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund did not directly invest in derivatives.

Foreign Securities Risk: Investing in the securities of non-U.S. issuers involves a number of risks, such as fluctuations in currency values, adverse political, social or economic developments, and differences in social and economic developments or policies.

Fund of Fund Risk: The Fund, as a shareholder of the underlying funds, indirectly bears its proportionate share of any investment management fees and other expenses of the underlying funds. Further due to the fees and expenses paid by the Fund, as well as small variations in the Fund’s actual allocations to the underlying funds and any futures and cash held in the Fund’s portfolio, the performance and income distributions of the Fund will not be the same as the performance and income distributions of the underlying funds. In addition, the Fund maintains indirect exposure to various types of risk which may exist in the underlying Funds, such as foreign securities risk, fixed income securities risk and other risks.

Interest Rate Risk: Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

Market Risk: The market price of securities owned by the underlying funds may go up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Securities may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries represented in the securities markets. The value of a security may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment, as well as natural disasters, and outbreaks of infectious illnesses or other widespread public health issues.

7. Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic

During the first quarter of 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a public health emergency. COVID-19 has led to increased short-term market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on U.S. and world economies and markets in general. COVID-19 may adversely impact the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objectives. The extent of the impact on the performance of the Fund and its investments will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the COVID-19 outbreak, related restrictions and advisories, and the effects on the financial markets and economy overall, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

8. Federal Tax Information

It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provisions for federal income taxes are required in the financial statements.

Management of the Fund has reviewed tax positions taken in tax years that remain subject to examination by all major tax jurisdictions, including federal (i.e., the last four tax year ends and the interim tax period since then, as applicable). Management believes that there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken.

Cost of securities, including derivatives and short positions as applicable, for federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2020 is $300,030,850. The gross unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on a tax basis is as follows:


Unrealized appreciation	$	117,084,419
Unrealized (depreciation)		—

Net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)	$	117,084,419

The tax character of dividends paid to shareholders during the year ended December 31, 2020 was as follows:


	Ordinary Income			Net Long-Term Capital Gains			Total Distributions(a)

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	7,606,135		$	13,620,199		$	21,226,334

(a)	Total distributions paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because dividends are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.

The tax character of dividends paid to shareholders during the year ended December 31, 2019, was as follows:


	Ordinary Income			Net Long-Term Capital Gains			Total Distributions(a)

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	8,970,236		$	13,325,524		$	22,295,760

(a)	Total distributions paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because dividends are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.

At December 31, 2020, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:


	Undistributed Ordinary Income			Undistributed Long-Term Capital Gains			Accumulated Capital and Other Losses			Unrealized Appreciation/ Depreciation(a)			Total Accumulated Earnings/ (Deficit)

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	7,990,450		$	21,213,543		$	—		$	117,084,419		$	146,288,412

(a)	The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable primarily to tax deferral of losses on wash sales.

10. Subsequent Events

Management of the Fund has evaluated the need for additional disclosures or adjustments resulting from events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, there were no subsequent events to report that would have material impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Trustees of Allianz Variable Insurance Products Fund of Funds Trust and Shareholders of

AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of portfolio investments, of AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund (one of the funds constituting Allianz Variable Insurance Products Fund of Funds Trust, referred to hereafter as the “Fund”) as of December 31, 2020, the related statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020, the statements of changes in net assets for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations for the year ended December 31, 2020, the changes in its net assets for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the financial highlights for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The financial statements of the Fund as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the financial highlights for each of the periods ended on or prior to December 31, 2017 (not presented herein, other than the financial highlights) were audited by other auditors whose report dated February 23, 2018 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and financial highlights.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2020 by correspondence with the transfer agent. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreement (Unaudited)

Subject to the general supervision of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) and in accordance with the investment objectives and restrictions of each separate series (each a “Fund,” together, the “Funds”) of the Allianz Variable Insurance Products Fund of Funds Trust (the “Trust”), investment advisory services are provided to the Funds by Allianz Investment Management LLC (the “Manager”). The Manager manages each Fund pursuant to an investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Trust in respect of each such Fund. The Management Agreement provides that the Manager, subject to the supervision and approval of the Board, is responsible for the management of each Fund. For management services, each Fund pays the Manager an investment advisory fee based upon each Fund’s average daily net assets. The Manager has contractually agreed to limit the expenses of each Fund by reimbursing the Fund if and when total Fund operating expenses exceed certain amounts until at least April 30, 2022 (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”).

In reviewing the services provided by the Manager and the terms of the Management Agreement, the Board receives and reviews information related to the Manager’s experience and expertise in the variable insurance marketplace. Currently, the Funds are offered only through variable annuities and variable life insurance policies, and not in the retail fund market. In addition, the Board receives information regarding the Manager’s expertise with regard to portfolio diversification and asset allocation requirements within variable insurance products issued by Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (“Allianz Life”) and its subsidiary, Allianz Life Insurance Company of New York (“Allianz of New York”). Currently, the Funds are offered only through Allianz Life and Allianz of New York variable products.

As required by the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Board has reviewed and approved the Management Agreement with the Manager. The Board’s decision to approve this contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment on whether to approve new arrangements and continue the existing arrangements. During its review of the contract, the Board considered many factors, among the most material of which are: the Fund’s investment objectives and long-term performance; the Manager’s management philosophy, personnel, processes and investment performance, including its compliance history and the adequacy of its compliance processes; the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders (and underlying contract owners) and their relative sophistication; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry; and comparable fees in the mutual fund industry.

The Board also considered the compensation and benefits received by the Manager. This includes fees received for services provided to a Fund by employees of the Manager or of affiliates of the Manager and research services received by the Manager from brokers that execute Fund trades, as well as advisory fees. The Board considered the fact that: (1) the Manager and the Trust are parties to an Administrative Services Agreement and a Compliance Services Agreement, under which the Manager is compensated by the Trust for performing certain administrative and compliance services including providing an employee of the Manager or one of its affiliates to act as the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer; and (2) Allianz Life Financial Services, LLC, an affiliated person of the Manager, is a registered securities broker-dealer and received (along with its affiliated persons) payments made by certain underlying funds pursuant to Rule 12b-1.

The Board is aware that various courts have interpreted provisions of the 1940 Act and have indicated in their decisions that the following factors may be relevant to an adviser’s compensation: the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the adviser, including the performance of the fund; the adviser’s cost of providing the services; the extent to which the adviser may realize “economies of scale” as the fund grows larger; any indirect benefits that may accrue to the adviser and its affiliates as a result of the adviser’s relationship with the fund; performance and expenses of comparable funds; the profitability of acting as adviser to the fund; and the extent to which the independent Board members, who are not “interested persons” of a fund as defined by the 1940 Act (“Independent Trustees”), are fully informed about all facts bearing on the adviser’s services and fees. The Board is aware of these factors and takes them into account in its review of the Management Agreement for the Funds.

Each member of the Board considered and weighed these circumstances in light of his or her experience in governing the Trust. The Board is assisted in its deliberations by the advice of independent legal counsel to the Independent Trustees (“Independent Trustee Counsel”). In this regard, the Board requests and receives a significant amount of information about the Funds and the Manager. Some of this information is provided at each regular meeting of the Board; additional information is provided in connection with the particular meetings at which the Board’s formal review of the Management Agreement occurs. In between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board may receive information on particular matters as the need arises. Thus, the Board’s evaluation of the Management Agreement is informed by reports covering such matters as: the Manager’s investment philosophy, personnel and processes, and the Fund’s investment performance (in absolute terms as well as in relationship to its benchmark). In connection with comparing the performance of each Fund versus its benchmark, the Board receives reports on the extent to which the Fund’s performance may be attributed to various applicable factors, such as asset class allocation decisions and volatility management strategies, if applicable, the performance of the underlying funds, rebalancing decisions, and the impact of cash positions and Fund fees and expenses. The Board also receives reports on the Funds’ expenses (including the advisory fee itself and the overall expense structure of the Funds, both in absolute terms and relative to similar and/or competing funds, with due regard for the Expense Limitation Agreement and additional voluntary expense limitations); the use and allocation of any brokerage commissions derived from trading the Funds’ portfolio securities; the nature, extent and quality of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Manager and its affiliates; compliance and audit reports concerning the Funds and the companies that service them; and relevant developments in the mutual fund industry and how the Funds and/or the Manager are responding to them.

The Board also receives financial information about the Manager, including reports on the compensation and benefits the Manager derives from its relationships with the Funds. These reports cover not only the fees under the Management Agreement, but also the fees, if any, received for providing other services to the Funds. The reports also discuss any indirect or “fall out” benefits the Manager or its affiliates may derive from their relationships with the Funds.

The Management Agreement was most recently considered at Board meetings held in the summer and fall of 2020. Information relevant to the approval of the Management Agreement was considered at Board meetings held June 9, 2020, and September 15, 2020, as well as at various other meetings preceding those meetings. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC (the “Exemptive Order”), providing relief from in-person meeting requirements under the 1940 Act, the Board including the Independent Trustees, determined that reliance on the Exemptive Order was necessary and appropriate due to the circumstances related to the current and potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and determined to vote on the renewal of the Management Agreement at a meeting held by video conference call at which all Board members, including the Independent Trustees, participated and were able to hear each other simultaneously during the meeting. Accordingly, the Management Agreement was approved at the Board meeting on September 15, 2020. At such meeting the Board also approved the Expense Limitation Agreement between the Manager and the Trust for the period ending April 30, 2022.

In connection with such meetings, the Board requested and evaluated extensive materials from the Manager, including performance and expense information for other investment companies with similar investment objectives derived from data compiled by an independent third-party provider and other sources believed to be reliable by the Manager and the Trustees. Prior to voting, the Trustees reviewed the proposed approval of the Management Agreement with management and with Independent Trustee Counsel and received a memorandum from such counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed approval. The Independent Trustees also discussed the proposed approval in a private session with Independent Trustee Counsel at which no representatives of the Manager were present. In reaching their determinations relating to the approval of the Management Agreement, in respect of each Fund, each member of the Board considered all factors he or she believed relevant. The Board based its decision to approve the Management Agreement on the totality of the circumstances and relevant factors, and with a view to past and future long-term considerations. Not all of the factors and considerations discussed above and below are necessarily relevant to every Fund, and the Board did not assign relative weights to factors discussed herein or deem any one or group of them to be controlling in and of themselves.

Shareholder reports must include a discussion of certain factors relating to the selection of the investment adviser and the approval of the advisory fee. The “factors” enumerated by the SEC are set forth below in italics, as well as the Board’s conclusions regarding such factors:

(1) The nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Manager. The Trustees noted that the Manager, subject to the oversight of the Board, administers each Fund’s business and other affairs. The Trustees noted that the Manager also provides the Trust and each Fund with such administrative and other services (exclusive of, and in addition to,

any such services provided by any other service providers retained by the Trust on behalf of the Funds) and executive and other personnel as are necessary for the operation of the Trust and the Funds. Except for the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer and certain compliance staff, the Manager pays all of the compensation of Trustees and officers of the Trust who are employees of the Manager or its affiliates.

The Board considered the scope and quality of services provided by the Manager and noted that the scope of the services provided has continued to expand as a result of regulatory and other developments. The Board noted, for example, that the Manager is responsible for maintaining and monitoring its own compliance program, and this compliance program has been continuously refined and enhanced in light of new regulatory requirements. The Board considered the capabilities and resources which the Manager has dedicated to performing services on behalf of the Trust and its Funds. The quality of administrative and other services, including the Manager’s role in coordinating the activities of the Trust’s other service providers, also were considered. The Board members concluded that, overall, they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to the Trust and to each of the Funds under the Management Agreement.

(2) The investment performance of the Funds and the Manager. In connection with every quarterly Board meeting and the summer and fall 2020 contract review process, Trustees received extensive information on the performance results of each Fund. This included, for example, performance information on absolute total return, performance versus the appropriate benchmark(s), the contribution to performance of the Manager’s asset class allocation decisions and volatility management strategies, if applicable, the performance of the underlying funds, and the impact on performance of rebalancing decisions, cash and Fund fees. This included Lipper performance information on the Funds for the previous quarter, and previous one-, three- and five-year periods, to the extent the Funds were in existence for such periods. (For Funds that have been in existence for less than five years, the Board received performance information on shorter time periods.) For example, in connection with the Board meetings held June 9, 2020, and September 15, 2020, the Manager reported that for the six Funds for which performance information for the five-year period ended December 31, 2019 was presented, three were in the top 40%, two were in the middle 20%, and one was in the bottom 40%. The Manager reported that for the three-year period ended December 31, 2019, four Funds were in the top 40%, four Funds were in the middle 20%, and four Funds were in the bottom 40%. For the one-year period ended December 31, 2019, three Funds were in the top 40%, five Funds were in the middle 20%, and four Funds were in the bottom 40% against peers.

The Manager also reported on the performance of the MVP Funds compared to custom managed-volatility peer groups. For the seven Funds for which five-year performance information was presented, for the five-year period ended December 31, 2019, four Funds were in the top 40%, one fund was in the middle 20%, and two Funds were in the bottom 20%. For the three-year period ended December 31, 2019, four Funds were in the top 40%, two Funds were in the middle 20%, and four Funds were in the bottom 40%. For the one-year period ended December 31, 2019, five Funds were in the top 40%, three Funds were in the middle 20%, and two Funds were in the bottom 40%. The Board members discussed with the Manager and considered the impact of the volatility management strategies on performance, where applicable, and considered whether they were operating as intended.

At the Board meeting held September 15, 2020, the Trustees determined that the investment performance of the Funds was acceptable.

(3) The costs of services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Manager and its affiliates from the relationship with the Funds. The Board considered that the Manager receives an advisory fee from each of the Funds. The Manager reported that for the three MVP Fusion Funds the advisory fee paid put these Funds in the 45th percentile of the customized peer group. The Manager reported that for the four MVP Index Strategy Funds the advisory fee paid put them in the 16^th percentile of the customized peer group, and for the AZL Balanced Index Strategy Fund the advisory fee paid put it in the 7th percentile of the customized peer group. The Manager reported that for the AZL DFA Multi-Strategy Fund, the advisory fee paid was in the 4th percentile. The Manager reported that for the AZL MVP DFA Multi-Strategy, AZL MVP FIAM Multi-Strategy, and AZL MVP T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Plus Funds, the advisory fee paid was in the 9th percentile. (A lower percentile reflects lower fund fees and is better for fund shareholders.) Trustees were provided with information on the total expense ratios of the Funds and other funds in the customized peer groups, and the Manager reported upon the challenges in making peer group comparisons for the Funds. The Board further considered and found that the advisory fee paid to the Manager with respect to each Fund was based on services provided to the Fund that were in addition to, rather than duplicative of, the services provided pursuant to the advisory agreements for the underlying funds in which the Fund invests.

The Manager provided information concerning the profitability of the Manager’s investment advisory activities for the period from 2017 through 2019. The Board recognized that it is difficult to make comparisons of profitability from investment company advisory agreements because comparative information is not generally publicly available and is affected by numerous factors, including the structure of the particular adviser, the types of funds it manages, its business mix, numerous assumptions regarding allocation of expenses and the adviser’s capital structure and cost of capital. In considering profitability information, the Board considered the possible effect of certain fall-out benefits to the Manager and its affiliates. The Board focused on profitability of the Manager’s relationships with the Funds before taxes and distribution expenses. The Board recognized that the Manager should earn a reasonable level of profits for the services it provides to each Fund.

The Board also considered that Wilshire Funds Management (“Wilshire”) serves as a consultant to the Manager in preparing statistical and other factual information for use in the creation and maintenance of the asset allocation models for the AZL MVP Fusion Funds, pursuant to an agreement between the Manager and Wilshire. Wilshire serves as a consultant to the Manager with respect to selecting the AZL MVP Fusion Funds’ underlying funds and the asset allocations among the underlying funds. The Manager, not any Fund, pays a consultant fee to Wilshire.

(4) and (5) The extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Funds grow, and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale. The Board noted that the advisory fee schedules for the Funds do not contain breakpoints that reduce the fee rate on assets above specified levels. The Board recognized that breakpoints may be an appropriate way for the Manager to share its economies of scale, if any, with Funds that have substantial assets. The Board found there was no uniform methodology for establishing breakpoints that give effect to Fund-specific services provided by the Manager. The Board noted that in the fund industry as a whole, as well as among funds similar to the Funds, there is no uniformity or pattern in the fees and asset levels at which breakpoints (if any) apply. Depending on the age, size, and other characteristics of a particular fund and its manager’s cost structure, different conclusions can be drawn as to whether there are economies of scale to be realized at any particular level of assets, notwithstanding the intuitive conclusion that such economies exist, or will be realized at some level of total assets. Moreover, because different managers have different cost structures and service models, it is difficult to draw meaningful conclusions from the breakpoints that may have been adopted by other funds. The Board also noted that the advisory agreements for many funds do not have breakpoints at all, or if breakpoints exist, they may be at asset levels significantly greater than those of the individual Funds. The Board noted that the total assets in all of the Funds, as of December 31, 2019, were approximately $10.6 billion and that the largest Fund, the AZL MVP Growth Index Strategy Fund, had assets of approximately $2.7 billion.

The Board noted that the Manager has agreed to temporarily limit Fund expenses under the Expense Limitation Agreement, which has the effect of reducing expenses similar to implementation of advisory fee breakpoints. The Manager has committed to continue to consider the continuation of expense limits and/or advisory fee breakpoints as the Funds grow larger. The Board receives quarterly reports on the level of Fund assets. The Board expects to continue to consider: (a) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized, and (b) whether the advisory fee should be modified, either in connection with the next renewal of the Management Agreements or by modifying the Expense Limitation Agreement, to reflect such economies of scale, if any.

Having taken these factors into account, the Board concluded that the absence of breakpoints in the Funds’ advisory fee rate schedules was acceptable under each Fund’s circumstances.

In conclusion, after full consideration of the above factors, as well as such other factors as each member of the Board considered instructive in evaluating the Management Agreement, the Board concluded that the advisory fees were reasonable, and that the continuation of the Management Agreement was in the best interest of the Funds.

AZL^® DFA Multi-Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL^® DFA Multi-Strategy Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL^® DFA Multi-Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) returned 10.64%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 15.37% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Moderate Composite Index¹, respectively.

During the year, the S&P 500 returned 18.40%. The S&P MidCap 400 Index² returned 13.66% and the S&P 600 Index³ returned 11.29%. The economic consequences of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in March sent U.S. equities into a steep decline. In response, the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut interest rates by 150 basis points (1.50%) and began purchasing assets to support liquidity in the debt markets. These efforts, alongside a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package enacted by Congress, produced a sharp rebound in stock prices. By early June, the S&P 500 had erased those earlier losses. U.S. equities generally continued to rise on a slower trajectory through the end of the year, as clarity around the presidential election and the introduction of COVID-19 vaccines produced positive investor sentiment. In this environment, small-cap U.S. stocks generally underperformed large-cap U.S. stocks, while growth stocks largely outperformed value stocks.

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index⁴, returned 7.82% for the year. Although many countries contained the pandemic more effectively than the U.S., many global economies struggled with the slowdown in exports, reduction in travel, and other challenges. Within the non-U.S. developed markets equity universe, small-cap stocks outperformed both mid-cap and large-cap stocks during the period, which is the opposite pattern witnessed among U.S. stocks. Meanwhile, growth stocks outperformed value stocks in non-U.S. developed equities as well.

U.S. bonds gained during the year and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 7.51%. In global developed markets, yield curves were mostly flat over the short term, but they were upwardly sloped when taking into account long-term yields.

The Fund, which invests in both U.S. and international markets, underperformed its Moderate Composite Index in 2020. The Fund’s exposure to non-U.S. developed markets stocks detracted. A bias toward value stocks within its equity holdings was a detractor relative to the Fund’s

benchmark, as growth stocks outperformed value stocks. Within U.S. equities, an emphasis on stocks with smaller market capitalizations detracted from relative performance. However, within the Fund’s non-U.S. equity holdings, the emphasis on smaller capitalization stocks contributed to relative performance.*

The Fund’s fixed income holdings underperformed its fixed income benchmark. This underperformance was due largely to the Fund’s emphasis on short-term bonds, which underperformed as interest rates declined. A focus on higher-rated securities was also a detractor.*

Overall, currencies in developed markets appreciated relative to the U.S. dollar. These currency movements had

a positive impact on the Fund’s equity returns in U.S. dollar-denominated terms.*

The Fund used currency forward contracts to hedge its fixed income foreign currency exposure during the period. Given that the Fund’s benchmarks are denominated in U.S. dollars, this strategy did not affect the Fund’s relative performance.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a combination of DFA Underlying Funds that represent different classes in the Fund’s asset allocation.

Investment Concerns

Value-based investments are subject to the risk that the broad market may not recognize their intrinsic value.

Small- to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

Investing in derivative instruments involves risks that may be different from or greater than the risk associated with investing directly in securities or other traditional instruments.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

The Fund’s performance is measured against the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500”), the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Moderate Composite Index (“Composite”). The S&P 500 is representative of 500 selected common stocks, most of which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and is a measure of the U.S. Stock market as a whole. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted performance benchmark for investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of at least one year. The Composite is a blended index comprised of (60%) S&P 500 and (40%) Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. These indexes are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting fees. The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for services provided to the Fund. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2020

1. Organization

The Allianz Variable Insurance Products Fund of Funds Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 16, 2004.

AZL^® MVP Balanced Index Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL^® MVP Balanced Index Strategy Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL^® MVP Balanced Index Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) returned 5.98%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 14.31% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Balanced Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund is a fund of funds that pursues broad diversification across four equity sub-portfolios and one fixed-income sub-portfolio. The four equity sub-portfolios pursue passive strategies that aim to achieve, before fees, returns similar to the S&P 500 Index, the S&P 400 Index², the S&P 600 Index³, and the MSCI EAFE Index⁴. The fixed-income sub-portfolio is an enhanced bond index strategy that seeks to achieve a return that exceeds that of the Bloomberg Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Generally, the Fund allocates 40% to 60% of its assets to the underlying equity index funds and between 40% and 60% to the underlying bond index fund. The Fund also employs the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process, which is intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund and market volatility.*

U.S. equities began the year with steady gains on low volatility. However, the emergence of coronavirus (COVID-19) as a global pandemic sent equity markets into a freefall in late February. By late March, the S&P 500 fell more than 30% from its February peak. The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut rates by 150 bps (1.50%) and implemented asset-buying programs, while Congress enacted a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package. The efforts led to a dramatic rebound in stock prices, and by early June, the S&P 500 had gained more than 40% from its March low, even as the pandemic led to a recession deeper than any since the Great Depression. Late in the year, promising news about vaccines helped push stock prices higher.

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index, returned 7.82% for the year, generally underperforming U.S. equities. Many foreign countries struggled from the pandemic-related slowdown in exports, reduction in travel, among other challenges.

U.S. bonds gained during the year and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 7.51%. Yields tumbled in March, with the 10-year Treasury reaching an all-time low of 0.50%. The accommodative policies of the Fed coupled with investor demand helped keep rates low for most of the year. As investors regained their appetite for risk in August, yields on intermediate-and long-term bonds began to rise, leading to a gradual steepening of the yield curve. After widening sharply in March, investment-grade credit spreads narrowed throughout the rest of the year, leaving spreads tighter at the end of the period than at the start, which led corporate bonds to outpace government bonds for the year.

The Fund underperformed its blended benchmark, the Balanced Composite Index, during the 12-month period. The Fund’s allocation to non-U.S. developed market equities detracted from relative results. In addition, relative performance was negatively affected by the Fund’s allocation to mid-and small-cap U.S. equities, which trailed large-cap U.S. equities.*

The fixed income allocation contributed slightly to the Fund’s relative performance. Its fixed income allocation benefited from overweight exposure to corporate bonds, and Treasury Inflation Protected Securities. However, its focus on shorter duration detracted as interest rates fell during the year.*

The MVP risk management process, which includes the use of derivatives, specifically futures, detracted from returns. The MVP process reduced equity exposure in early March, limiting the negative impacts of the first quarter drawdown in equities. However, due to the period’s extreme volatility the MVP process continued to reduce equity exposure, which prevented the Fund from fully participating in the rally from late March through early June.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

¹	For a complete description of the Fund’s performance benchmarks please refer to page 2 of this report.

²	The Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400 Index (“S&P 400”) is the most widely used index for mid-sized companies. The S&P 400 covers 7% of the U.S. equities market, and is part of a series of S&P U.S. indexes that can be used as building blocks for portfolio composition.

⁴	The Morgan Stanley Capital International, Europe, Australasia and Far East (“MSCI EAFE”) Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.

The indexes defined above are unmanaged. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

AZL^® MVP Balanced Index Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Fund Objective

Investment Concerns

Small-to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Investing in a single industry or sector, or concentrating investments in a limited number of industries or sectors, tends to increase the risk that economic, political, or regulatory developments affecting certain industries or sectors will have a large impact on the value of the portfolio.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

Mortgage-backed investments involve risk of loss due to prepayments and, like any bond, due to default. Because of the sensitivity of mortgage-related securities to changes in interest rates, an underlying fund’s performance may be more volatile than if it did not hold these securities.

Investing in derivative instruments involves risks that may be different from or greater than the risk associated with investing directly in securities or other traditional instruments.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

money market funds, and short-term debt funds to satisfy all applicable margin requirements and to provide additional portfolio liquidity to satisfy large redemptions and any margin calls. Due to the leverage provided by derivatives, the notional value of the Fund’s derivative positions could exceed 20% of the Fund’s value. The Fund may also use futures to gain equity exposure and may hold cash as a buffer in the event of market shocks.

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund invested in futures contracts to reduce volatility and limit the need to decrease or increase allocations to underlying funds. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $13.2 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $23.9 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

6. Investment Risks

Fund of Fund Risk: The Fund, as a shareholder of the underlying funds, indirectly bears its proportionate share of any investment management fees and other expenses of the underlying funds. Further due to the fees and expenses paid by the Fund, as well as small variations in the Fund’s actual allocations to the underlying funds and any futures and cash held in the Fund’s portfolio, the performance and income distributions of the Fund will not be the same as the performance and income distributions of the underlying funds. In addition, the Fund maintains indirect exposure to various types of risk which may exist in the underlying Funds, such as foreign securities risk, fixed income securities risk and other risks.

Interest Rate Risk: Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

Market Risk: The market price of securities owned by the underlying funds may go up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Securities may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries represented in the securities markets. The value of a security may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment, as well as natural disasters, and outbreaks of infectious illnesses or other widespread public health issues.

8. Federal Tax Information

The tax character of dividends paid to shareholders during the year ended December 31, 2020 was as follows:


	Ordinary Income			Net Long-Term Capital Gains			Total Distributions(a)

AZL MVP Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	7,804,880		$	6,551,686		$	14,356,566

(a)	Total distributions paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because dividends are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.

The tax character of dividends paid to shareholders during the year ended December 31, 2019, was as follows:


	Ordinary Income			Net Long-Term Capital Gains			Total Distributions(a)

AZL MVP Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	7,504,381		$	4,985,352		$	12,489,733

(a)	Total distributions paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because dividends are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.

At December 31, 2020, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:


	Undistributed Ordinary Income			Undistributed Long-Term Capital Gains			Accumulated Capital and Other Losses			Unrealized Appreciation/ Depreciation(a)			Total Accumulated Earnings/ (Deficit)

AZL MVP Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	12,933,760		$	9,550,733		$	—		$	58,217,384		$	80,701,877

(a)	The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable primarily to tax deferral of losses on wash sales and mark-to-market of future contracts.

AZL® MVP DFA Multi-Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL^® MVP DFA Multi-Strategy Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL^® MVP DFA Multi-Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) returned 3.77%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 15.37% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Moderate Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund is a fund of funds that pursues broad diversification across three equity sub-portfolios and one fixed income sub-portfolio. The four underlying portfolios are managed by Dimensional Fund Advisors. Generally, the Fund allocates 50% to 70% of its assets to the underlying equity funds and between 30% and 50% to the underlying fixed-income fund. The Fund also employs the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process, which is intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund and market volatility.*

During the year, the S&P 500 returned 18.40%. The S&P MidCap 400 Index² returned 13.66% and the S&P 600 Index³ returned 11.29%. The economic consequences of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in March sent U.S. equities into a steep decline. In response, the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut interest rates by 150 basis points (1.50%) and began purchasing assets to support liquidity in the debt markets. These efforts, alongside a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package enacted by Congress, produced a sharp rebound in stock prices. U.S. equities generally continued to rise on a slower trajectory through the end of the year, as clarity around the presidential election and the introduction of COVID-19 vaccines produced positive investor sentiment. In this environment, small-cap U.S. stocks generally underperformed large-cap U.S. stocks, while growth stocks largely outperformed value stocks.

The Fund, which invests in both U.S. and international markets, underperformed its composite benchmark, the Moderate Composite Index, in 2020. The Fund’s exposure to non-U.S. developed markets stocks detracted. A bias toward value stocks within its equity holdings was a detractor relative to the Fund’s benchmark, as growth stocks outperformed value stocks. Within U.S. equities,

an emphasis on stocks with smaller market capitalizations detracted from relative performance. However, within the Fund’s non-U.S. equity holdings, the emphasis on smaller capitalization stocks contributed to relative performance.*

Overall, currencies in developed markets appreciated relative to the U.S. dollar. These currency movements had a positive impact on the Fund’s equity returns in U.S. dollar-denominated terms. The Fund used currency forward contracts to hedge its fixed income foreign currency exposure during the period. Given that the Fund’s benchmarks are denominated in U.S. dollars, this strategy did not affect the Fund’s relative performance.*

The MVP risk management process, which includes the use of derivatives, specifically futures, detracted from returns. The MVP process reduced equity exposure in early March, limiting the negative impacts of the first quarter drawdown in equities. However, due to the extreme volatility of the period, the MVP process continued to reduce equity exposure into late spring, which prevented the Fund from fully participating in the rally from late March through early June.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

AZL® MVP DFA Multi-Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a combination of DFA Underlying Funds that represent different classes in the Fund’s asset allocation.

Investment Concerns

Value-based investments are subject to the risk that the broad market may not recognize their intrinsic value.

Small- to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

Investing in derivative instruments involves risks that may be different from or greater than the risk associated with investing directly in securities or other traditional instruments.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

Derivative Instruments

All open derivative positions at period end are reflected on the Fund’s Schedule of Portfolio Investments. The following is a description of the derivative instruments utilized by the Fund, including the primary underlying risk exposures related to each instrument type. The Fund’s allocation to the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process may include (a) derivatives such as index futures, other futures contracts, options, and other similar securities and (b) cash, money market equivalents, short-term debt instruments, money market funds, and short-term debt funds to satisfy all applicable margin requirements and to provide additional portfolio liquidity to satisfy large redemptions and any margin calls. Due to the leverage provided by derivatives, the notional value of the Fund’s derivative positions could exceed 20% of the Fund’s value. The Fund may also use futures to gain equity exposure and may hold cash as a buffer in the event of market shocks.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund invested in futures contracts to reduce volatility and limit the need to decrease or increase allocations to underlying funds. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $3.6 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $9.6 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations for the year ended December 31, 2020, the changes in its net assets for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the financial highlights for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2020 by correspondence with the transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

AZL^® MVP Fidelity Institutional Asset Management Multi-Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL^® MVP Fidelity Institutional Asset Management Multi-Strategy Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL^® MVP Fidelity Institutional Asset Management Multi-Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) returned 7.16%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 13.14% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Income & Growth Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund currently invests in one underlying fund, the AZL^® Fidelity Institutional Asset Management Multi-Strategy Fund. Approximately 60% of the underlying fund’s assets are managed by its subadviser, FIAM LLC, investing primarily in investment-grade fixed-income securities, and approximately 40% of the underlying fund’s assets are managed by its sub-subadviser, Geode Capital Management, LLC, investing primarily in large-cap common stocks. The Fund also employs the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process, which is intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund volatility.*

U.S. equity markets proved resilient in 2020, recovering strongly from the economic shock delivered by the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The year started off with equities performing well, but the spread of the virus around the world caused a dramatic downturn in February and March. Lockdowns implemented by local governments led to a surge in unemployment, decreased spending and significantly less travel. In response, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) slashed interest rates, backed business loans, and instituted quantitative easing measures. These measures, as well as the U.S. government’s $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package, helped spur a recovery in equity markets over the course of spring and summer, and by August the S&P 500 had fully recovered its losses from earlier in the year. Optimism regarding vaccines contributed to stock prices continuing their upward trend through the final months of the year.

The U.S. bond market also experienced positive returns in 2020. Concerns about the economic fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic in late winter and early spring led investors to gravitate away from stocks toward the relative safety of fixed-income assets. This shift drove bond yields, especially U.S. Treasury yields, sharply lower. Throughout the rest of the year, meaningful actions taken by the Fed helped to keep Treasury yields low and drove spreads significantly tighter, leading to higher prices for fixed-income assets.

The Fund’s equity component outperformed the equity benchmark, the S&P 500. Growth-oriented stocks performed well during the period, detracting somewhat from relative results, as the Fund favors value-oriented stocks. However, the modestly negative impact of stock selection on the Fund’s performance was more than offset by sector allocation effects. In particular, an underweight position in the energy and materials sectors contributed to relative returns. Stock selection in the industrials, energy and consumer staples sectors also boosted relative performance.*

The Fund’s fixed-income component also outperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. An overweight position in corporate bonds contributed to relative returns, as did an increase in an overweight position in high-yield corporate bonds, which performed particularly well during the fourth quarter. The Fund’s holdings of Treasury Inflation Protected Securities also boosted relative returns, as these assets were buoyed by rising inflation expectations.*

However, for the 12-month period the Fund underperformed its blended benchmark, the Income & Growth Composite Index.

The MVP risk management process, which includes the use of derivatives, specifically futures, detracted from returns. The MVP process reduced equity exposure in early March, limiting the negative impacts of the first quarter drawdown in equities. However, due to the extreme volatility of the period, the MVP process continued to reduce equity exposure, which prevented the Fund from fully participating in the rally from late March through early June.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

* The Fund’s portfolio composition is subject to change. There is no guarantee that any sectors mentioned will continue to perform well or that securities in such sectors will be held by the Fund in the future. The information contained in this commentary is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as a recommendation to purchase or sell securities in the sector mentioned. The Fund’s holdings and weightings are as of December 31, 2020.

AZL^® MVP Fidelity Institutional Asset Management Multi-Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income while maintaining prospects for capital appreciation. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in shares of another mutual fund managed by the manager, the AZL^® Fidelity Institutional Asset Management Multi-Strategy Fund, combined with the MVP risk management process.

Investment Concerns

The Fund invests in an underlying fund, so its investment performance is directly related to the performance of that underlying fund. Before investing, investors should assess the risks associated with and types of investments made by of the underlying fund in which the Fund invests.

Emerging market investing may be subject to additional economic, political, liquidity, and currency risks not associated with more developed countries.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

High-yield bonds have a higher risk of default or other adverse credit events, but have the potential to pay higher earnings over investment-grade bonds. The higher risk of default, or the inability of the creditor to repay its debt, is the primary reason for the higher interest rates on high-yield bonds.

The performance of investments in real estate depends on the overall strength of the real estate market, the management of real estate investments trusts (REITs), real estate operating companies (REOCs), and foreign real estate companies, and property management, all of which can be affected by a variety of factors, including national and regional economic conditions.

Investing in derivative instruments involves risks that may be different from or greater than the risk associated with investing directly in securities or other traditional instruments.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

Expense Ratio	Gross
AZL^® MVP Fidelity Institutional Asset Management Multi-Strategy Fund		0.82	%

The above expense ratio is based on the current Fund prospectus dated May 1, 2020. The Manager and the Fund have entered into a written contract limiting operating expenses, excluding certain expenses (such as interest expense and acquired fund fees and expenses), to 0.15% through April 30, 2022. Additional information pertaining to the December 31, 2020 expense ratio can be found in the Financial Highlights.

The Fund’s performance is measured against the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500”), the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Income & Growth Composite Index (“Composite”). The S&P 500 is representative of 500 selected common stocks, most of which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and is a measure of the U.S. Stock market as a whole. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted performance benchmark for investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of at least one year. The Composite is a blended index comprised of (40%) S&P 500 and (60%) Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. These indexes are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting fees. The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for services provided to the Fund. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund invested in futures contracts to reduce volatility and limit the need to decrease or increase allocations to underlying funds. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $9.4 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $19.2 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

6. Investment Risks

Derivatives Risk: The Fund may invest directly or through affiliated or unaffiliated mutual funds or unregistered investment pools in derivative instruments such as futures, options, and options on futures. A derivative is a financial contract whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate, or risk. Use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Derivatives are subject to a number of other risks, such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, and selection risk. Derivatives also involve the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in the value may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate, or index. Using derivatives may result in losses, possibly in excess of the principal amount invested. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances. The other party to a derivatives contract could default.

Interest Rate Risk: Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Balanced Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Balanced Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Balanced Fund (the “Fund”) returned 3.78%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 14.31% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Balanced Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund is a fund of funds that achieves broad diversification by investing in underlying funds. The Fund typically holds between 40% and 60% of its assets in equity funds and 40% to 60% of its assets in fixed-income funds. The Fund also employs the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process, which is intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund volatility.*

U.S. equities began the year with steady gains on low volatility. However, the emergence of coronavirus (COVID-19) as a global pandemic sent equity markets into a freefall in late February. By late March, the S&P 500 fell more than 30% from its February peak. The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut rates by 150 bps (1.50%) and implemented asset-buying programs that increased its balance sheet by more than $3 trillion. These moves, coupled with a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package, led to a dramatic rebound in stock prices. By early June, the S&P 500 had gained more than 40% from its March low, even as the pandemic crippled the U.S. economy, leading to a recession deeper than any since the Great Depression. Late in the year, promising news about vaccines helped push stock prices higher.

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index², returned 7.82% for the year, generally underperforming U.S. equities. Emerging market equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Equity Index³, returned 18.31%. Many global economies struggled with the pandemic-related slowdown in exports, reduction in travel, decline in oil prices, and other challenges. Central banks throughout the world took unprecedented measures in response to the pandemic, but were unable to match the scale of the Fed in the U.S.

U.S. bonds gained, with the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returning 7.51%. Yields tumbled in March with the 10-year Treasury reaching an all-time low of 0.50. Accommodative Fed policies coupled with investor demand kept rates low throughout the year. As investors regained their appetite for risk, yields on intermediate- and long-term bonds began to rise in August, leading to a gradual steepening of the yield curve. After widening sharply in March, investment-grade credit spreads narrowed, which led corporate bonds to outpace government bonds for the year.

The Fund underperformed its blended benchmark, the Balanced Composite Index, during the 12-month period. Its allocation to off-benchmark non-U.S. developed and emerging market equities detracted from relative performance, as did its allocation to mid- and small-cap U.S. equities, as smaller U.S. companies generally underperformed their large-cap counterparts. An overweight exposure to U.S. value stocks compared to growth stocks also dragged on relative results, as growth stocks generally outperformed value stocks during the year.*

The fixed income allocation contributed slightly to the Fund’s relative performance due to an overweight exposure to corporate bonds and Treasury Inflation Protected Securities. However, the Fund’s generally shorter duration detracted as interest rates fell during the year.*

The MVP risk management process, which includes the use of derivatives, specifically futures, had an overall negative impact on relative returns, primarily due to the magnitude and timing of the decline and recovery in equities during the first two quarters of 2020. The MVP process reduced equity exposure in early March, limiting the negative impacts of the first quarter drawdown in equities. However, the MVP process continued to reduce equity exposure, preventing the Fund from fully participating in the rally in late March through early June.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Balanced Fund Review (Unaudited)

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation with preservation of capital as an important consideration. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a combination of Permitted Underlying Funds that represent different classes in the Fund’s asset allocation.

Investment Concerns

Stocks are more volatile and carry more risk and return potential than other forms of investments.

Emerging market investing may be subject to additional economic, political, liquidity, and currency risks not associated with more developed countries.

Small- to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2020

1. Organization

The Allianz Variable Insurance Products Fund of Funds Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 16, 2004. The Trust is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “1940 Act”) and thus is determined to be an investment company, and follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”. The Trust consists of 12 separate investment portfolios (collectively, the “Funds”), of which one is included in this report, the AZL MVP Fusion Dynamic Balanced Fund (the “Fund”), and 11 are presented in separate reports. The Fund is a diversified series of the Trust.

Derivative Instruments

AZL MVP Fusion Dynamic Balanced Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2020

include (a) derivatives such as index futures, other futures contracts, options, and other similar securities and (b) cash, money market equivalents, short-term debt instruments, money market funds, and short-term debt funds to satisfy all applicable margin requirements and to provide additional portfolio liquidity to satisfy large redemptions and any margin calls. Due to the leverage provided by derivatives, the notional value of the Fund’s derivative positions could exceed 20% of the Fund’s value. The Fund may also use futures to gain equity exposure and may hold cash as a buffer in the event of market shocks.

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund used futures contracts to provide market exposure on the Fund’s cash balances. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $35.9 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $66.7 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

	Ordinary Income			Net Long-Term Capital Gains			Total Distributions(a)

AZL MVP Fusion Dynamic Balanced Fund		$	23,611,101		$	41,188,603		$	64,799,704

AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Conservative Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as Manager for the AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Conservative Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Conservative Fund (the “Fund”) returned 4.79%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 12.52% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Conservative Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund is a fund of funds that achieves broad diversification by investing in underlying funds. The Fund typically holds between 25% and 45% of its assets in equity funds and 55% to 75% of its assets in fixed-income funds. The Fund also employs the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process, which is intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund volatility.*

U.S. equities began the year with steady gains on low volatility. However, the emergence of coronavirus (COVID-19) as a global pandemic sent equity markets into a freefall in late February. By late March, the S&P 500 fell more than 30% from its February peak. The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut rates by 150 bps (1.50%) and implemented asset-buying programs that increased its balance sheet by more than $3 trillion. These moves, coupled with a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package, led to a dramatic rebound in stock prices. By early June, the S&P 500 had gained more than 40% from its March low, even as the pandemic crippled the U.S. economy, leading to a recession than any since the Great Depression. Late in the year, promising news about vaccines helped push stock prices higher.

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index², returned 7.82% for the year, generally underperforming U.S. equities. Emerging market equities, as measured by the MSCI EM Index³, returned 18.31%. Many global economies struggled with the pandemic-related slowdown in exports, reduction in travel, decline in oil prices, and other challenges. Central banks throughout the world took unprecedented measures in response to the pandemic, but were unable to match the scale of the Fed in the U.S.

U.S. bonds gained, with the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returning 7.51%. Yields tumbled in March, with the 10-year Treasury reaching an all-time low of 0.50%. Accommodative Fed policies coupled with investor demand kept rates low throughout the year. As investors regained their appetite for risk, yields on intermediate- and long-term bonds began to rise in August, leading to a gradual steepening of the yield curve. After widening sharply in March, investment-grade credit spreads narrowed, which led corporate bonds to outpace government bonds for the year.

The Fund underperformed its blended benchmark, the Conservative Composite Index, during the 12-month period. Its allocation to off-benchmark non-U.S. developed and emerging market equities detracted from relative performance, as did its allocation to mid- and small-cap U.S. equities, as smaller U.S. companies generally underperformed their large-cap counterparts. An overweight exposure to U.S. value stocks compared to growth stocks also dragged on relative results, as growth stocks generally outperformed value stocks during the year.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation with preservation of capital as an important consideration. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a combination of Permitted Underlying Funds that represent different classes in the Fund’s asset allocation.

Investment Concerns

Stocks are more volatile and carry more risk and return potential than other forms of investments.

Emerging market investing may be subject to additional economic, political, liquidity, and currency risks not associated with more developed countries.

Small- to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

The above expense ratio is based on the current Fund prospectus dated May 1, 2020. The Manager and the Fund have entered into a written contract limiting operating expenses, excluding certain expenses (such as interest expense and acquired fund fees and expenses), to 0.35% through April 30, 2022. Additional information pertaining to the December 31, 2020 expense ratio can be found in the Financial Highlights.

The Fund’s performance is measured against the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500”), the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Conservative Composite Index (“Composite”). The S&P 500 is representative of 500 selected common stocks, most of which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and is a measure of the U.S. Stock market as a whole. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted performance benchmark for investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of at least one year. The Composite is a blended index comprised of (35%) S&P 500 and (65%) Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. These indexes are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting fees. The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for services provided to the Fund. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2020

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund invested in futures contracts to reduce volatility and limit the need to decrease or increase allocations to underlying funds. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $10.4 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $14.6 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Moderate Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Moderate Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Moderate Fund (the “Fund”) returned 4.54%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 15.37% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Moderate Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund is a fund of funds that achieves broad diversification by investing in underlying funds. The Fund typically holds between 50% and 70% of its assets in equity funds and 30% to 50% of its assets in fixed-income funds. The Fund also employs the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process, which is intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund volatility.*

U.S. equities began the year with steady gains on low volatility. However, the emergence of coronavirus (COVID-19) as a global pandemic sent equity markets into a freefall in late February. By late March, the S&P 500 fell more than 30% from its February peak. The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut rates by 150 bps (1.50%) and implemented asset-buying programs that increased its balance sheet by more than $3 trillion. These moves, coupled with a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package, led to a dramatic rebound in stock prices. By early June, the S&P 500 had gained more than 40% from its March low, even as the pandemic crippled the U.S. economy, leading to a recession than any since the Great Depression. Late in the year, promising news about vaccines helped push stock prices higher.

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index², returned 7.82% for the year, generally underperforming U.S. equities. Emerging market equities, as measured by the MSCI EM Index³, returned 18.31%. Many global economies struggled with the pandemic-related slowdown in exports, reduction in travel, decline in oil prices, and other challenges. Central banks throughout the world took unprecedented measures in response to the pandemic, but were unable to match the scale of the Fed in the U.S.

U.S. bonds gained, with the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returning 7.51%. Yields tumbled in March, with the 10-year Treasury reaching an all-time low of 0.50%. Accommodative Fed policies and investor demand kept rates low throughout the year. As investors regained their appetite for risk, yields on intermediate- and long-term bonds began to rise in August, leading to a gradual steepening of the yield curve. After widening sharply in March, investment-grade credit spreads narrowed, which led corporate bonds to outpace government bonds for the year.

The Fund underperformed its blended benchmark, the Moderate Composite Index for the 12-month period. during the 12-month period. Its allocation to off-benchmark non-U.S. developed and emerging market equities detracted from relative performance, as did its allocation to mid- and small-cap U.S. equities, as smaller U.S. companies generally underperformed their large-cap counterparts. An overweight exposure to U.S. value stocks compared to growth stocks also dragged on relative results, as growth stocks generally outperformed value stocks during the year.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

²	The Morgan Stanley Capital International, Europe, Australasia and Far East (“MSCI EAFE”) Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.

AZL MVP Fusion^SM Dynamic Moderate Fund Review (Unaudited)

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a combination of Permitted Underlying Funds that represent different classes in the Fund’s asset allocation.

Investment Concerns

Emerging market investing may be subject to additional economic, political, liquidity, and currency risks not associated with more developed countries.

Small- to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund used futures contracts to provide market exposure on the Fund’s cash balances. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $78.0 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $159.2 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations for the year ended December 31, 2020, the changes in its net assets for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the financial highlights for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2020 by correspondence with the transfer agent and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

AZL^® MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL^® MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL^® MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) returned 7.81%. That compared to an 15.90% and 16.50%; 18.31% and 18.69%; 7.51%, and 13.67% total return for its benchmarks, the MSCI World Index (net and gross of withholding taxes)¹, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net and gross of withholding taxes)¹; the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Global Balanced Composite Index, respectively.

The Fund is a fund of funds that invests primarily in a combination of three underlying mutual funds (the “Underlying Funds”), which are managed by the Manager. The Fund is designed to provide a diversified portfolio consisting of Underlying Funds in equity and fixed income asset classes, combined with the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund and market volatility.*

U.S. equities began the year with steady gains on low volatility. However, the emergence of coronavirus (COVID-19) as a global pandemic sent equity markets into a freefall in late February. By late March, the S&P 500 Index² fell more than 30% from its February peak. The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut rates by 150 bps (1.50%) and implemented asset-buying programs that increased its balance sheet by more than $3 trillion. These moves, coupled with a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package, led to a dramatic rebound in stock prices. By early June, the S&P 500 had gained more than 40% from its March low, even as the pandemic crippled the U.S. economy, leading to a recession deeper than any since the Great Depression. Late in the year, promising news about vaccines helped push stock prices higher.

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index³, returned 7.82% for the year, generally underperforming U.S. equities. Emerging market equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, returned 18.31%. Many global economies struggled with the pandemic-related slowdown in exports, reduction in travel, decline in oil prices, and other challenges. Central banks throughout the world took unprecedented measures in response to the pandemic, but were unable to match the scale of the Fed in the U.S.

U.S. bonds gained with the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returning 7.51%. Yields tumbled in March, with the 10-year Treasury reaching an all-time low of 0.50%. Accommodative Federal Reserve policies and investor demand kept rates low throughout the year. Investment-grade credit spreads narrowed, which led corporate bonds to outpace government bonds for the year.

The Fund underperformed its composite benchmark, the Global Balanced Composite Index, in 2020 primarily due to the negative impact of the MVP process. The equity allocation underperformed the blended benchmark, primarily due to the underlying funds’ fees.

The fixed income allocation contributed slightly to the Fund’s performance compared to the benchmark, as its fixed income allocation benefited from above-benchmark exposure to corporate bonds and Treasury Inflation Protected Securities. However, the Fund’s focus on shorter duration detracted from relative results as interest rates fell during the year.*

The MVP risk management process, which includes the use of derivatives, specifically futures, detracted from returns. The MVP process reduced equity exposure in early March, limiting the negative impacts of the first quarter drawdown in equities. However, due to the extreme volatility of the period, the MVP process continued to reduce equity exposure, which prevented the Fund from fully participating in the rally from late March through early June.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Fund Objective

The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation with preservation of capital. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in a combination of Underlying Funds, which are managed by the manager, combined with the MVP risk management process.

Investment Concerns

Emerging market investing may be subject to additional economic, political, liquidity, and currency risks not associated with more developed countries.

Small- to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

Expense Ratio	Gross
AZL^® MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund		0.77	%

The above expense ratio is based on the current Fund prospectus dated May 1, 2020. The Manager and the Fund have entered into a written contract limiting operating expenses, excluding certain expenses (such as interest expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses) to 0.15% through April 30, 2022. Additional information pertaining to the December 31, 2020 expense ratio can be found in the Financial Highlights.

The Fund’s performance measured against the Morgan Stanley Capital International, Europe World Index (“MSCI World Index”), the Morgan Stanley Capital International, Europe Emerging Markets (“MSCI EM Index”), the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, and the Global Balanced Composite Index (“Composite“). The MSCI World Index is a broad global equity benchmark that represents large- and mid-cap equity performance across 23 developed markets countries. The MSCI EM Index captures the large- and mid-cap representation across 24 emerging markets countries: Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Czech Republic, Egypt, Greece, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Qatar, Russia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, and United Arab Emirates. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted performance benchmark for investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of at least one year. The Composite is a blended index comprised of (45%) MSCI World Index; (5%) MSCI EM Index; and (50%) Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. The Indexes are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as Investment management and fund accounting fees. The Index noted as “gross of withholding taxes” reflects the maximum possible reinvestment of dividends with no adjustment for withholding tax deductions or tax credits. The Index noted as “net of withholding taxes” reflects the reinvestment of dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using (for international indexes) a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties. Investors cannot invest directly in an index

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2020

1. Organization

The Allianz Variable Insurance Products Fund of Funds Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 16, 2004. The Trust is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “1940 Act”) and thus is determined to be an investment company, and follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”. The Trust consists of 12 separate investment portfolios (collectively, the “Funds”), of which one is included in this report, the AZL MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund (the “Fund”), and 11 are presented in separate reports. The Fund is a diversified series of the Trust.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Consolidation of Subsidiaries

Prior to December 6, 2019, the Fund primarily invested in shares of another mutual fund managed by the Manager, the AZL BlackRock Global Allocation Fund (the “VIP Subsidiary”), a wholly-owned and controlled subsidiary of the Fund. Effective December 6, 2019, the VIP Subsidiary was liquidated. The Fund’s Statements of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights are consolidated to include the activity of the VIP Subsidiary through the period ended December 6, 2019, and additionally for years ended December 31, 2016 through December 31, 2018 on the Financial Highlights. All intercompany transactions during this period have been eliminated. The accumulated deconsolidation impact related to income and gain/loss recorded in connection with the deconsolidation is disclosed on the Fund’s Statements of Changes in Net Assets for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Foreign Currency Translation and Withholding Taxes

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the current rate of exchange to determine the fair value of investments, assets and liabilities. Purchases and sales of securities, and income and expenses are translated at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective dates of such transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included in the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments and foreign currencies.

Income received by the Fund from sources within foreign countries may be subject to withholding and other income or similar taxes imposed by such countries. The Fund accrues such taxes, as applicable, based on its current interpretation of tax rules in the foreign markets in which it invests.

Expense Allocation

Affiliated Securities Transactions

Derivative Instruments

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund invested in futures contracts to reduce volatility and limit the need to decrease or increase allocations to underlying funds. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $27.0 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $41.5 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

4. Investment Valuation Summary

●

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets

●

Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayments speeds, credit risk, etc.)

●

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

Security prices are generally provided by an independent third party pricing service approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 pm Eastern Time). Equity securities are valued at the last quoted sale price or, if there is no sale, the last quoted bid price is used for long securities and the last quoted ask price is used for securities sold short. Securities listed on NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. (“NASDAQ”) are valued at the official closing price as reported by NASDAQ. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as a Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their respective net asset value as reported by such companies and are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Futures contracts are valued at the last sales price as of the close of the primary exchange and are typically categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Debt and other fixed income securities are generally valued at an evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing source approved by the Trustees. To value debt securities, pricing services may use various pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as market activity, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, call features, credit ratings and other data, as well as broker quotes. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality with sixty days or less remaining until maturity may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. In each of these situations, valuations are typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Other assets and securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or are deemed unreliable are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Trustees or persons acting on the behalf of the Trustees. Fair value pricing may be used for significant events such as securities whose trading has been suspended, whose price has become stale or for which there is no currently available price at the close of the NYSE. Depending on the source and relative significance of valuation inputs, these instruments may be classified as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Fund utilizes a pricing service to assist in determining the fair value of securities when certain significant events occur that may affect the value of foreign securities.

In accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees, fair value pricing may be used if events materially affecting the value of foreign securities occur between the time when the exchange on which they are traded closes and the time when the Fund’s net asset value is calculated. Management identifies possible fluctuation in international securities by monitoring the increase or decrease in the value of a designated benchmark index. In the event of an increase or decrease greater than predetermined levels, the Fund may use a systematic valuation model provided by an independent third party to fair value its international equity securities which are then typically categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The following is a summary of the valuation inputs used as of December 31, 2020 in valuing the Fund’s investments based upon the three levels defined above:


Investment Securities:	Level 1			Level 2			Level 3				Total

Common Stocks+		$	—		$	2,134,904		$	247,186			$	2,382,090

6. Restricted Securities

A restricted security is a security which has been purchased through a private offering and cannot be resold to the general public without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) or pursuant to the resale limitations provided by Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act. Whether a restricted security is illiquid is determined pursuant to guidelines established by the Trustees. Not all restricted securities are considered illiquid. The illiquid restricted securities held as of December 31, 2020 are identified below:


Security	Acquisition Date(a)		Acquisition Cost			Shares or Principal Amount			Fair Value			Percentage of Net Assets

*	The issuer has imposed a lockup period for 80% of Palantir shares until the occurrence of certain agreed-upon events, not to extend beyond March 31, 2021.

(a)	Acquisition date represents the initial purchase date of the security.

7. Investment Risks

Interest Rate Risk: Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

9. Federal Tax Information

AZL MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2020

Cost of securities, including derivatives and short positions as applicable, for federal income tax purposes at December 31, 2020 is $593,456,768. The gross unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on a tax basis is as follows:


Unrealized appreciation	$	93,062,422
Unrealized (depreciation)		(6,483	)

Net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation)	$	93,055,939

The tax character of dividends paid to shareholders during the year ended December 31, 2020 was as follows:


	Ordinary Income			Net Long-Term Capital Gains			Total Distributions(a)

AZL MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	66,118,874		$	17,499,506		$	83,618,380

(a)	Total distributions paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because dividends are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.

The tax character of dividends paid to shareholders during the year ended December 31, 2019, was as follows:


	Ordinary Income			Net Long-Term Capital Gains			Total Distributions(a)

AZL MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	13,128,660		$	15,208,673		$	28,337,333

(a)	Total distributions paid may differ from the Statements of Changes in Net Assets because dividends are recognized when actually paid for tax purposes.

At December 31, 2020, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:


	Undistributed Ordinary Income			Undistributed Long-Term Capital Gains			Accumulated Capital and Other Losses			Unrealized Appreciation/ Depreciation(a)			Total Accumulated Earnings/ (Deficit)

AZL MVP Global Balanced Index Strategy Fund		$	37,629,535		$	13,696,458		$	—		$	93,065,426		$	144,391,419

(a) The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable primarily to tax deferral of losses on wash sales and mark-to-market of futures contracts.

10. Ownership and Principal Holders

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates presumptions of control of the fund, under section 2 (a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of December 31, 2020, the Fund had an individual shareholder account which is affiliated with the Manager representing ownership in excess of 85% of the Fund. As of December 31, 2020, the Fund had a controlling interest (in excess of 50%) in the AZL MSCI Global Equity Index Fund, which is affiliated with the Manager. Investment activities of these shareholders could have a material impact to the Fund.

AZL^® MVP Growth Index Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL^® MVP Growth Index Strategy Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL^® MVP Growth Index Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) returned 4.73%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 16.74% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Growth Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund is a fund of funds that pursues broad diversification across four equity sub-portfolios and one fixed-income sub-portfolio. The four equity sub-portfolios pursue passive strategies that aim to achieve, before fees, returns similar to the S&P 500 Index, the S&P 400 Index², the S&P 600 Index³ and the MSCI EAFE Index⁴, which represents shares of large companies in developed foreign markets. The fixed-income sub-portfolio is an enhanced bond index strategy that seeks to achieve a return that exceeds that of the Bloomberg Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. Generally, the Fund allocates 65% to 85% of its assets to the underlying equity index funds and between 15% and 35% to the underlying bond index fund.*

The Fund also employs the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process, which is intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund and market volatility.

U.S. equities began the year with steady gains on low volatility. However, the emergence of coronavirus (COVID-19) as a global pandemic sent equity markets into a freefall in late February. By late March, the S&P 500 fell more than 30% from its February peak. The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) cut rates by 150 bps (1.50%) and implemented asset-buying programs, while Congress enacted a $2.2 trillion fiscal stimulus package. The efforts led to a dramatic rebound in stock prices, and by early June, the S&P 500 had gained more than 40% from its March low, even as the pandemic led to a recession than any since the Great Depression. Late in the year, promising news about vaccines helped push stock prices higher.

U.S. bonds gained during the year and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index returned 7.51%. Yields tumbled in March, with the 10-year Treasury reaching an all-time low of 0.50%. The accommodative policies of the Fed coupled with investor demand helped keep rates low for most of the year. As investors regained their appetite for risk in August, yields on intermediate- and long-term bonds began to rise, leading to a gradual steepening of the yield curve. After widening sharply in March, investment-grade credit spreads narrowed throughout the rest of the year, leaving spreads tighter at the end of the period than at the start, which led corporate bonds to outpace government bonds for the year.

The Fund underperformed its blended benchmark, the Growth Composite Index, for the 12-month period. The Fund’s allocation to non-U.S. developed market equities detracted from relative results. In addition, relative performance was negatively affected by the Fund’s allocation to mid- and small-cap U.S. equities, which trailed large-cap U.S. equities.*

The fixed income allocation contributed slightly to the Fund’s relative performance. Its fixed income allocation benefited from overweight exposure to corporate bonds and Treasury Inflation Protected Securities. However, its focus on shorter duration detracted as interest rates fell during the year.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

¹	For a complete description of the Fund’s performance benchmarks please refer to page 2 of this report.

²	The Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400 Index (“S&P 400”) is the most widely used index for mid-sized companies. The S&P 400 covers 7% of the U.S. equities market, and is part of a series of S&P U.S. indexes that can be used as building blocks for portfolio composition.

⁴	The Morgan Stanley Capital International, Europe, Australasia and Far East (“MSCI EAFE”) Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada.

The indexes defined above are unmanaged. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a combination of Index Strategy Underlying Funds that represent different classes in the Fund’s asset allocation.

Investment Concerns

Small- to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

The Fund’s performance is measured against the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index (“S&P 500”), the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index and the Growth Composite Index (“Composite”). The S&P 500 is representative of 500 selected common stocks, most of which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and is a measure of the U.S. Stock market as a whole. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a market value-weighted performance benchmark for investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of at least one year. The Composite is a blended index comprised of (75%) S&P 500 and (25%) Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. These indexes are unmanaged and do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting fees. The Fund’s performance reflects the deduction of fees for services provided to the Fund. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund invested in futures contracts to reduce volatility and limit the need to decrease or increase allocations to underlying funds. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $79.6 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $319.1 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

AZL^® MVP Moderate Index Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Allianz Investment Management LLC serves as the Manager for the AZL^® MVP Moderate Index Strategy Fund.

What factors affected the Fund’s performance during the year ended December 31, 2020?

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the AZL^® MVP Moderate Index Strategy Fund (the “Fund”) returned 6.44%. That compared to an 18.40%, 7.51% and 15.37% total return for its benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index¹, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index¹, and the Moderate Composite Index¹, respectively.

The Fund is designed to provide a diversified portfolio consisting of index funds in equity and fixed income asset classes, combined with the MVP (Managed Volatility Portfolio) risk management process intended to adjust the risk of the portfolio based on quantitative indicators of market risk, such as the current level of fund and market volatility.

International developed market equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index², returned 7.82% for the year, generally underperforming U.S. equities. Many foreign countries struggled from the pandemic-related slowdown in exports, reduction in travel, among other challenges.

The Fund underperformed its blended benchmark, the Moderate Composite Index, for the 12-month period. The Fund’s allocation to non-U.S. developed market equities detracted from relative results. In addition, relative performance was negatively affected by the Fund’s allocation to mid- and small-cap U.S. equities, which trailed large-cap U.S. equities.*

The MVP risk management process, which includes the use of derivatives, specifically futures, detracted from returns. The MVP process reduced equity exposure in early March, limiting the impact of the equity decline in late February and March. However, due to the period’s extreme volatility the MVP process continued to reduce equity exposure, which prevented the Fund from fully participating in the rally from late March through early June.*

Past performance does not guarantee future results.

¹	For a complete description of the Fund’s performance benchmarks please refer to page 2 of this report.

The Morgan Stanley Capital International, Europe, Australasia and Far East (“MSCI EAFE”) Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index that is unmanaged and is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the U.S. & Canada. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

AZL^® MVP Moderate Index Strategy Fund Review (Unaudited)

Fund Objective

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation. This objective may be changed by the Trustees of the Fund without shareholder approval. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a combination of Index Strategy Underlying Funds that represent different classes in the Fund’s asset allocation.

Investment Concerns

Small- to mid-capitalization companies typically have a higher risk of failure and historically have experienced a greater degree of volatility.

Debt securities held by an underlying fund may decline in value due to rising interest rates.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate, providing the potential for principal gain or loss.

For a complete description of these and other risks associated with investing in the Fund, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus.

Futures Contracts

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Fund invested in futures contracts to reduce volatility and limit the need to decrease or increase allocations to underlying funds. Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are marked to market daily and a payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”), if any, is recorded by the Fund. Gains or losses are recognized but not considered realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to stock futures, interest rate risk related to bond futures, and foreign currency risk related to currency futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are the imperfect correlation between the change in fair value of the underlying securities and the prices of futures contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and the inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of the contract. For the period ended December 31, 2020, the monthly average notional amount for long contracts was $21.4 million, and the monthly average notional amount for short contracts was $44.4 million. Realized gains and losses are reported as “Net realized gains/(losses) on futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.
