Class I Shares

Class N Shares

Supplement dated August 4, 2017

To Currently Effective Prospectuses

Effective August 4, 2017, institutional investors may no longer open new accounts in Class I Shares that are held directly with the Funds. Also effective August 4, 2017, the eligibility for purchase of Class N Shares is expanded to include retail investors who purchase through financial intermediaries and whose accounts are maintained in omnibus accounts at such financial intermediary. In addition, certain institutional investors may purchase Class N Shares directly from the Funds.

 

1. The following replaces in its entirety the paragraphs in the Shareholder’s Guide section of the Funds’ Prospectuses, describing the eligibility for Class I Shares and Class N Shares.

Class I Shares are available through certain financial intermediary platforms including, but not limited to, mutual fund wrap fee programs, managed account programs, asset allocation programs, bank trust platforms, as well as certain retirement platforms. Class I Shares pay financial intermediaries for the provision of administrative services, including recordkeeping, subaccounting, order processing for omnibus or networked accounts, or other non-distribution related shareholder services provided to or on behalf of shareholders. Class I Shares are also available to certain direct institutional investors including, but not limited to, corporations, certain retirement plans, public pension plans and foundations/endowments, who established Class I Share accounts before August 4, 2017.

Class N Shares are generally available only to financial intermediaries purchasing on behalf of: 1) certain adviser-assisted, employer-sponsored retirement plans, including 401(k) plans, 457 plans, 403(b) plans, Taft-Hartley multi-employer plans, profit-sharing and money purchase pension plans, defined benefit plans, and certain welfare benefit plans, such as health savings accounts, and nonqualified deferred compensation plans; and 2) retail investors purchasing in qualified or non-qualified accounts, whose accounts are held through an omnibus account at their financial intermediary, and where the financial intermediary requires no payment or reimbursement from the Funds, Janus Capital or its affiliates. Class N Shares also are available to Janus Henderson proprietary products. Class N Shares also are available to certain direct


institutional investors approved by Janus Henderson Distributors including, but not limited to, corporations, certain retirement plans, public plans, and foundations and endowments, subject to minimum investment requirements.

 

2. The following replaces in its entirety the paragraph in the Shareholder’s Guide section of the Funds’ Prospectuses, describing the minimum investment requirements of Class N Shares.

For retail investors who purchase through financial intermediaries, the minimum investment is $2,500 per Fund account. Investors in certain tax-deferred accounts or accounts held through certain wrap programs may not be subject to this minimum. For institutional investors investing directly with the Funds, the minimum investment is $1 million per Fund account. There is no investment minimum for adviser-assisted, employer-sponsored retirement plans. For additional information, contact your intermediary, plan sponsor, administrator, or a Janus Henderson representative, as applicable.
