INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The investment objective of the Portfolio is long-term growth of capital.

PORTFOLIO FEES AND EXPENSES

The table below shows the fees and expenses that you may pay if you invest in shares of the Portfolio. The table does not include Contract charges. Because Contract charges are not included, the total fees and expenses that you will incur will be higher than the fees and expenses set forth in the table. See your Contract prospectus for more information about Contract charges.

Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)(1)
	Class I Shares	Class III Shares
Management Fees	0.75%	0.75%
+ Distribution and/or Service Fees (12b-1 Fees)	None	0.25%
+ Other Expenses	0.05%	0.05%
+ Acquired Fund Fees & Expenses	0.24%	0.24%
= Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses	1.04%	1.29%
-Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement	(0.33)%	(0.33)%
=Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement(2)	0.71%	0.96%

(1) Any differences in total annual portfolio operating expenses shown in the table above and the expense ratio (after waivers and/or reimbursements) in the Portfolio’s Financial Highlights are attributable to changes in management fees, fee waivers and/or expense limitations occurring after the end of the most recent fiscal year. Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses (both before and after fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements) have been restated to reflect current expenses and fee waivers/reimbursements.

(2) The Manager and the Distributor have contractually agreed to waive a portion of their investment management fee and distribution fee, respectively, equal to the amount of the investment management and distribution fee received from other affiliated funds to the Portfolio due to the Portfolio’s investment in any such affiliated funds. In addition, the Manager has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its investment management fee and/or reimburse certain expenses of the Portfolio so that the Portfolio’s investment management fee plus other expenses (exclusive of certain expenses as described more fully in the Trust’s Statement of Additional Information) do not exceed 0.705% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets through June 30, 2026. Where applicable, the Manager agrees to waive management fees or shared operating expenses on any share class to the same extent that it waives such expenses on any other share class. Expenses waived/reimbursed by the Manager for the purpose of preventing the expenses from exceeding a certain expense ratio limit may be recouped by the Manager within the same fiscal year during which such waiver/reimbursement is made if such recoupment can be realized without exceeding the expense limit in effect at the time of the waiver/reimbursement and/or recoupment for that fiscal year, as applicable. These arrangements may not be terminated or modified without the prior approval of the Trust's Board.

Example. The following example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Portfolio with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The table does not include Contract charges. Because Contract charges are not included, the total fees and expenses that you will incur will be higher than the fees and expenses set forth in the example. See your Contract prospectus for more information about Contract charges.

The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolio for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Portfolio’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
PSF Global Portfolio Class I Shares	$73	$298	$542	$1,241
PSF Global Portfolio Class III Shares	$98	$376	$676	$1,528

Portfolio Turnover. The Portfolio pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in annual portfolio operating expenses or in the example, affect the Portfolio's performance. During the Portfolio's most recent fiscal year ended December 31, the Portfolio's portfolio turnover rate was 35% of the average value of its portfolio.

INVESTMENTS, RISKS AND PERFORMANCE

Principal Investment Strategies.

The Portfolio normally invests in equity and equity related securities in an allocation that is substantially similar to the composition of the Portfolio’s benchmark, the MSCI World Index (GD) (the Index). Equity and equity-related securities include common and preferred stock, other investment companies, (including exchange-traded funds (ETFs)), securities convertible into common stock, securities having common stock characteristics, futures contracts and other derivative instruments whose value is based on common stock, such as rights, warrants or options to purchase common stock.

In selecting investments for the assets of the Portfolio allocated to it by the Manager, PGIM Quantitative Solutions LLC (PGIM Quantitative Solutions), the subadviser to the Portfolio, utilizes a global, core equity strategy that seeks to outperform the benchmark Index while maintaining low tracking error relative to that Index. PGIM Quantitative Solutions employs an active, systematic stock selection process that focuses on a company’s intrinsic worth, and seeks to build a diversified portfolio of attractive stocks utilizing a proprietary risk framework that minimizes uncompensated risk.

In addition to direct investments in equity and equity related securities, the remainder of the Portfolio will invest in varying combinations of other pooled investment vehicles, including, open-end or closed end investment companies, ETFs, and unit investment trusts (collectively referred to as underlying portfolios). The underlying portfolios may or may not be affiliated with the Manager.

The selection of specific combinations of underlying portfolios for the Portfolio are determined by the Manager. The Manager will employ various quantitative and qualitative research methods to establish weighted combinations of underlying portfolios that are consistent with the neutral allocation for the Portfolio.

Principal Risks of Investing in the Portfolio. The risks summarized below are the principal risks of investing in the Portfolio. The relative significance of the risks summarized below may change over time. All investments have risks to some degree, and it is possible that you could lose money by investing in the Portfolio. An investment in the Portfolio is not a deposit with a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. While the Portfolio makes every effort to achieve its objective, the Portfolio cannot guarantee success. To the extent the Portfolio invests in underlying investment companies or other underlying portfolios, the Portfolio may be exposed to these risks directly through securities and other investments held directly by the Portfolio or indirectly through investments made by underlying portfolios in which the Portfolio invests.

Equity Securities Risk. The value of a particular stock or equity-related security held by the Portfolio could fluctuate, perhaps greatly, in response to a number of factors, such as changes in the issuer’s financial condition or the value of the equity markets or a sector of those markets. Such events may result in losses to the Portfolio. In addition, due to decreases in liquidity, the Portfolio may be unable to sell its securities holdings within a reasonable time at the price it values the security or at any price.

Exchange-Traded Funds (ETF) Risk. An investment in an ETF generally presents the same primary risks as an investment in a mutual fund that has the same investment objective, strategies, and policies. In addition, the market price of an ETF’s shares may trade above or below its net asset value and there may not be an active trading market for an ETF’s shares. The Portfolio could lose money investing in an ETF if the prices of the securities owned by the ETF go down.

Foreign Investment Risk. Foreign markets tend to be more volatile than US markets and are generally not subject to regulatory requirements comparable to those in the US. Foreign securities include investments in securities of foreign issuers denominated in foreign currencies, as well as securities of foreign issuers denominated in US dollars and American Depositary Receipts. Foreign investment risk includes the risk that: changes in currency exchange rates may affect the value of foreign securities held by the Portfolio; foreign markets generally are more volatile than, and generally are not subject to regulatory requirements comparable to, US markets; foreign financial reporting and tax standards usually differ from those in the US; foreign exchanges are often less liquid than US markets; political or social developments may adversely affect the value of foreign securities; foreign holdings may be subject to special taxation and limitations on repatriating investment proceeds; and certain events in foreign markets may adversely affect foreign and domestic issuers, including, among others, military conflict, geopolitical developments, interruptions in the global supply chain, natural disasters, and outbreaks of infectious diseases.

Focus Risk. The Portfolio focuses or may focus its investments in particular countries, regions, industries, sectors, markets, or types of investments and may accumulate large positions in such areas. As a result, the Portfolio invests in the securities of a small number of issuers and has greater exposure to adverse developments affecting those issuers and a resulting decline in the market price of those issuers’ securities as compared to a portfolio that invests in the securities of a larger number of issuers.

Fund of Funds Risk. In addition to the risks associated with the investment in an underlying portfolio, the Portfolio is exposed to the investment objectives, investment risks, and investment performance of the underlying portfolios. The Portfolio is also subject to a potential conflict of interest between the Portfolio and its investment manager(s) and subadviser(s), which could impact the Portfolio. Moreover, the Portfolio will incur its pro rata share of the relevant underlying portfolios’ expenses, which will reduce the Portfolio’s performance.

Quantitative Model Risk. The Portfolio and certain underlying portfolios, if applicable, may use quantitative models as part of their investment process. Securities or other investments selected using quantitative methods may perform differently from the market as a whole or from their expected performance for many reasons, including factors used in building the quantitative analytical framework, the weights placed on each factor, and changing sources of market returns. There can be no assurance that these methodologies will produce the desired results or enable the Portfolio to achieve its objective. A given model may be more effective with certain instruments or strategies than others, and there can be no assurance that any model can identify and incorporate all factors that will affect an investment’s price or performance. When models prove to be incorrect or incomplete, including because data is stale, missing or unavailable, any decisions made in reliance thereon expose the Portfolio to potential risks. Models rely on correct data inputs. If incorrect data is entered into even a well-founded model, the resulting information will be incorrect.

Blend Style Risk. A Portfolio's blend investment style may subject the Portfolio to risks of both value and growth investing. The portion of the Portfolio's portfolio that makes investments pursuant to a growth strategy may be subject to above-average market price fluctuations as a result of seeking high-quality stocks with good future growth prospects. The portion of the Portfolio's portfolio that makes investments pursuant to a value strategy may be subject to the risk that the market may not recognize a security's intrinsic value for long periods of time or that a stock judged to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced. Issuers of value stocks may have experienced adverse business developments or may be subject to special risks that have caused the stock to be out of favor. If the Portfolio's assessment of market conditions or a company’s value is inaccurate, the Portfolio could suffer losses or produce poor performance relative to other funds. Historically, growth stocks have performed best during later stages of economic expansion and value stocks have performed best during periods of economic recovery. Therefore, both styles may over time go in and out of favor depending on market conditions. At times when a style is out of favor, that portion of the portfolio may lag the other portion of the portfolio, which may cause the Portfolio to underperform the market in general, its benchmark, and other mutual funds.

Expense Risk. The actual cost of investing in the Portfolio may be higher than the expenses shown in the “Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses” table above for a variety of reasons, including, for example, if the Portfolio’s average net assets decrease.

Investment Style Risk. Securities held by the Portfolio as a result of a particular investment style, such as growth or value, tend to perform differently (i.e., better or worse than other segments of, or the overall, stock market) depending on market and economic conditions and investor sentiment. At times when the investment style is out of favor, the Portfolio may underperform other funds that invest in similar asset classes but use different investment styles.

Large Company Risk. Large-capitalization stocks as a group could fall out of favor with the market, causing the Portfolio to underperform investments that focus on small- or medium-capitalization stocks. Larger, more established companies may be slow to respond to challenges and may grow more slowly than smaller companies. Investments in securities of certain issuers with the largest market capitalizations can result in greater investment exposure to a limited number of issuers and sectors, primarily the technology sector, which can result in greater losses in the event of a market downturn or deteriorating fundamentals in those issuers or sectors.

Liquidity and Valuation Risk. The Portfolio may hold one or more securities for which there are no or few buyers and sellers or the securities are subject to limitations on transfer. The Portfolio may be unable to sell those portfolio holdings at the desired time or price, and may have difficulty determining the value of such securities for the purpose of determining the Portfolio’s net asset value. In such cases, investments owned by the Portfolio may be valued at fair value pursuant to policies and procedures adopted and implemented by the Manager. No assurance can be given that the fair value prices accurately reflect the value of the security. The Portfolio is subject to a liquidity risk management program, which limits the ability of the Portfolio to invest in illiquid investments.

Market and Management Risk. Markets in which the Portfolio invests may experience volatility and go down in value, and possibly sharply and unpredictably in short periods of time. Investment techniques, risk analyses, and investment strategies, which may include quantitative models or methods, used by a subadviser in making investment decisions for the Portfolio are subject to human error and may not produce the intended or desired results. While a Portfolio Manager or Subadviser(s) may make efforts to control the risks associated with market changes, and may attempt to identify changes as they occur, market environment changes can be sudden and extreme. The value of the Portfolio’s investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of domestic or global events, including war, terrorism, significant or unexpected failures, near-failures or credit downgrades of key institutions, unexpected changes in the prices of key commodities, government actions, environmental disasters, natural disasters, sanctions, cybersecurity events, supply chain disruptions, political or civil instability, and public health emergencies, among others. Such events may reduce consumer

demand or economic output, result in market closures, travel restrictions or quarantines, and significantly adversely impact the economy. These events can adversely affect the liquidity and volatility of investments held by the Portfolio, and there is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Portfolio will be achieved. In periods of market volatility and/or declines, the Portfolio may experience high levels of shareholder redemptions, and may have to sell securities at times when it would otherwise not do so, and at unfavorable prices.

Mid-Sized Company Risk. The shares of mid-sized companies tend to trade less frequently than those of larger, more established companies, which can have an adverse effect on the pricing and volatility of these securities and on the Portfolio’s ability to sell the securities.

Regulatory Risk. The Portfolio is subject to a variety of laws and regulations which govern its operations. The Portfolio is subject to regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), and depending on the Portfolio, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the CFTC). Similarly, the businesses and other issuers of the securities and other instruments in which the Portfolio invests are also subject to considerable regulation. Changes in laws and regulations may materially impact the Portfolio, a security, business, sector, or market.

Past Performance. The bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio by showing changes in the Portfolio's performance from year to year and by showing how the Portfolio's average annual returns for 1, 5, and 10 years compare with those of a broad-based securities market index that reflects the performance of the overall market applicable to the Portfolio. Past performance does not mean that the Portfolio will achieve similar results in the future.

The annual returns and average annual returns shown in the chart and table are after deduction of expenses and do not include Contract charges. If Contract charges were included, the returns shown would have been lower than those shown. Consult your Contract prospectus for information about Contract charges.

Annual return information in the bar chart is provided only for Class I shares. Because all of the Portfolio’s shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities, annual returns for Class III shares would be lower because Class III shares do not have the same expenses as Class I shares.

Note: Effective May 1, 2025, the Portfolio replaced subadvisers and changed its investment strategy. The performance figures for the Portfolio prior to this date reflect the Portfolio’s former investment operations, policies, strategies and subadvisers. Such performance is not representative of the Portfolio’s current investment operations, policies, strategies, and subadvisers that took effect as of this date, and the Portfolio’s performance after this date could be materially different.

TAX INFORMATION

Contract owners should consult the prospectus of the appropriate separate account or description of the plan for a discussion and information on the tax consequences of the Contract, policy or plan. In addition, Contract owners may wish to consult with their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of investments in the Contracts and the Portfolio, including the application of US federal, state and local and non-US taxes. The Portfolio currently intends to be treated as a partnership for US federal income tax purposes. As a result, the Portfolio's income, gains, losses, deductions, and credits are “passed through” pro rata directly to the Participating Insurance Companies and retain the same character for US federal income tax purposes.

FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARY COMPENSATION

If you purchase your Contract through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Participating Insurance Company, the Portfolio, or their related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of the Contract, the selection of the Portfolio, and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Contract over another investment or insurance product, or to recommend the Portfolio over another investment option under the Contract. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary's website for more information.
