1 “Remainder of Other Expenses” have been calculated based on the actual other expenses incurred in the most recent fiscal year, except that these expenses have been adjusted to reflect a reallocation of sub-transfer agency and transfer agency expenses among the classes as if they had been in effect during the most recent fiscal year.

 

2 The Fund’s adviser and/or its affiliates have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses of Class A, Class C and Select Class Shares (excluding Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses other than certain money market fund fees as described below, dividend and interest expenses related to short sales, interest, taxes, expenses related to litigation and potential litigation, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.69%, 1.39% and 0.44%, respectively, of their average daily net assets. The Fund may invest in one or more money market funds advised by the Adviser or its affiliates (affiliated money market funds). The Fund’s adviser, shareholder servicing agent and/or administrator have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in an amount sufficient to offset the respective net fees each collects from the affiliated money market funds on the Fund’s investment in such money market funds. These waivers are in effect through 10/31/16, at which time the adviser and/or its affiliates will determine whether to renew or revise them.

Example

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated. The Example also assumes

that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses are equal to the total annual fund operating expenses after fee waivers and expense reimbursements shown in the fee table through 10/31/16 and total annual fund operating expenses thereafter. Your actual costs may be higher or lower.

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund 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 and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses, or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the Fund’s most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 39% of the average value of its portfolio.

What are the Fund’s main investment strategies?

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will hold at least 80% of its Assets in stocks in the S&P 1000 Index1. “Assets” means net assets, plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes. The S&P 1000 Index is an index which includes stocks of small- and mid-capitalization companies. As of the reconstitution of the S&P 1000 Index on September 30, 2015, the market capitalizations of the companies in the index ranged from $37.9 million to $16.2 billion. These securities trade on national exchanges, as well as over-the-counter as part of the National Market System. Because the Fund uses an enhanced

 

1 “S&P 1000 Index,” is a registered service marks of Standard & Poor’s Corporation, which does not sponsor and is in no way affiliated with the Fund. The S&P 1000 Index is a market capitalization weighted combination of the Standard & Poor’s SmallCap 600 and the Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400 Indexes.

index strategy, not all of the stocks in the S&P 1000 Index are included in the Fund, and the Fund’s position in an individual stock may be overweighted or underweighted when compared to the index. In addition, the Fund may modestly overweight or underweight the sectors and industries within the index. The Fund seeks returns that modestly exceed those of the S&P 1000 Index over the long term with a modest divergence to the benchmark. In implementing its main strategies, the Fund invests primarily in common stocks and real estate investment trusts (REITs).

Derivatives, which are instruments that have a value based on another instrument, exchange rate or index, may be used as substitutes for securities in which the Fund can invest. The Fund may use futures contracts to gain or reduce exposure to its index, maintain liquidity and minimize transaction costs. In managing cash flows, the Fund buys futures contracts to invest incoming cash in the market or sells futures contracts in response to cash outflows, thereby gaining market exposure to the index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity.

Investment Process: The Fund uses an enhanced index strategy that seeks to provide investment results that correspond to or incrementally exceed the total return performance of the S&P 1000 Index. In managing the Fund, the adviser employs a process that ranks S&P 1000 Index stocks based on its proprietary stock ranking system. The rankings are then reviewed and adjusted utilizing fundamental research conducted by the investment team to enhance accuracy and consistency within constraints on sector and industry weights and position sizes. The adjusted rankings are used to place stocks into portfolios. In general, stocks are purchased when they are among the top ranked within their sector. Stocks become candidates for sale when their ranking falls, when they appear unattractive or when the company is no longer included in the S&P 1000 Index.

The Fund’s Main Investment Risks

 

An investment in this Fund or any other fund may not provide a complete investment program. The suitability of an investment in the Fund should be considered based on the investment objective, strategies and risks described in this Prospectus, considered in light of all of the other investments in your portfolio, as well as your risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizons. You may want to consult with a financial advisor to determine if this Fund is suitable for you.

Equity Market Risk. The price of equity securities may rise or fall because of changes in the broad market or changes in a company’s financial condition, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. These price movements may result from factors affecting individual companies, sectors or industries selected for the Fund’s portfolio or the securities market as a whole,

 

 

2


such as changes in economic or political conditions. When the value of the Fund’s securities goes down, your investment in the Fund decreases in value.

General Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions.

Index Investing Risk. Because the Fund uses an enhanced index strategy, securities may be purchased, retained and sold by the Fund at times when a more actively managed fund would not do so. If the value of securities that are heavily weighted in the index changes, you can expect a greater risk of loss than would be the case if the Fund were not invested in such securities. There is also the risk that the Fund’s performance may not correlate with the performance of the index.

Smaller Cap Company Risk. Investments in mid cap and small cap companies may be riskier, more volatile and more vulnerable to economic, market and industry changes than investments in larger, more established companies. As a result, share price changes may be more sudden or erratic than the prices of other equity securities, especially over the short term. These risks are higher for small cap companies.

Real Estate Securities Risk. The Fund’s investments in real estate securities, including REITs, are subject to the same risks as direct investments in real estate and mortgages, and their value will depend on the value of the underlying real estate interest. These risks include default, prepayments, changes in value resulting from changes in interest rates and demand for real and rental property, and the management skill and creditworthiness of REIT issuers. The Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of expenses, including management fees, paid by each REIT in which it invests in addition to the expenses of the Fund.

Derivative Risk. Derivatives, including futures, may be riskier than other types of investments and may increase the volatility of the Fund. Derivatives may be sensitive to changes in economic and market conditions and may create leverage, which could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund’s original investment. Derivatives expose the Fund to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the derivative counterparty will not fulfill its contractual obligations (and includes credit risk associated with the counterparty). Certain derivatives are synthetic instruments that attempt to replicate the performance of certain reference assets. With regard to such derivatives, the Fund does not have a claim on the reference assets and is subject to enhanced counterparty risk. Derivatives may not perform as expected, so the Fund may not realize the intended

benefits. When used for hedging, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the security or other risk being hedged. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose the Fund to risks of mispricing or improper valuation.

Transactions Risk. The Fund could experience a loss and its liquidity may be negatively impacted when selling securities to meet redemption requests by shareholders. The risk of loss increases if the redemption requests are unusually large or frequent or occur in times of overall market turmoil or declining prices. Similarly, large purchases of Fund shares may adversely affect the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash and is required to maintain a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

 

Investments in the Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed or endorsed by, any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency.

You could lose money investing in the Fund.

The Fund’s Past Performance

This section provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows how the performance of the Fund’s Select Class Shares has varied from year to year for the past ten calendar years. The table shows the average annual total returns for the past one year, five years and ten years. The table compares that performance to the S&P 1000 Index and the Lipper Small-Cap Core Funds Index and Lipper Mid-Cap Core Funds Index, both of which are indexes based on the total returns of certain small cap and mid cap mutual funds within small cap and mid cap fund categories, respectively, as determined by Lipper. Unlike the other index, the Lipper indexes include the fees and expenses of the mutual funds included in the indexes. Past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how any class of the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available by visiting www.jpmorganfunds.com or by calling 1-800-480-4111.
