Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio

Portfolio Managers’ Report

Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks a high level of current income consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. The Portfolio is managed by David S. Yealy, Portfolio Manager of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM”) — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance*: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of 1.34% compared to the iMoneyNet Government Institutional Index, which returned 1.38% for the same period.

The adivser to the Portfolio has waived fees to maintain a zero or positive yield, as have other money market funds. The Portfolio was able to realize some capital gains by primarily buying longer-term new issue T-Bills and selling them after yields declined to market levels over time. These gains were distributed to the shareholders and allowed the Portfolio to increase the total return over the yield of the Portfolio. The Portfolio continued to maintain an exposure to floating rate money market securities, shifting out of floaters tied to three-month London inter-bank offered rate (“LIBOR”) or one-month LIBOR, and into floaters tied to one-day secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), as the market prepares for LIBOR to be replaced by SOFR or another benchmark.

Portfolio Specifics: What a difference a year makes. The US Federal Reserve was far more aggressive than anyone expected in 2022. Inflation pressures were elevated, persistent and far above what we believe is the comfort level for the Fed. The Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) peaked at 9.1% in June, a driving force for the historically large rate hikes. At the beginning of 2022, the Fed Funds rate was in a range of 0.00% - 0.25%. The Fed began raising interest rates in March and accelerated their pace of monetary policy tightening with 0.75% hikes in June, July, September and November. CPI ended the year at 7%, still above the Fed’s comfort level, and even though the Fed Funds rate ended the year in a range of 4.25%-4.50% Fed officials have indicated they will continue to raise interest rates into 2023.

The Portfolio maintained a defensive and shorter than normal weighted average maturity (“WAM”) for the majority of the reporting period. The Portfolio was positioned with its lowest WAM (1-20 days) when the Fed was most aggressive. While we had anticipated these large moves, the market had not fully reflected these actions. The Portfolio increased exposure to floating rate securities, spanning agency and Treasury markets, tied to SOFR. These investments allowed the Portfolio to capture the immediate increase in yields following rate hikes by the Fed.

Current Strategy and Outlook: We expect that the Fed will continue to raise rates in the first half of 2023, albeit at a slower pace than 2022. The Federal Open Market Committee has indicated once they reach a peak in the Fed Funds rate, they expect to hold rates for an extended period of time. We believe this is a prudent approach to monetary policy and have structured the Portfolios similar to 2022, with an emphasis on maintaining a shorter WAM and high exposures to floating rate agency and Treasury securities. Currently, the market is not pricing in the expected rate increases, nor do we anticipate potential Fed pauses for extended periods of time. Should the market begin to price in these additional increases, we may look to extend our maturity to take advantage of recent high yields.

  Please see Note 5 for more information regarding the contractual waiver in place to reimburse certain expenses of the Portfolio to the extent necessary to assist the Portfolio in maintaining a yield of not less than zero.

VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio* (the “Portfolio”) seeks high total return consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The Portfolio is managed by Joseph P. Smith, CFA, President and Chief Investment Officer, Christopher S. Reich, CFA, and Kenneth S. Weinberg, CFA, Portfolio Managers of CBRE Investment Management Listed Real Assets LLC — the Sub-Adviser*.

Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -25.12% compared to the FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index and S&P 500® Index, which returned -25.09% and -18.11%, respectively, for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: For 2022, global real estate stocks finished down -25.10%, as the world’s capital markets battled the headwinds of a sharp rise in inflation, a significant increase in interest rates, geopolitical uncertainty and the increasing probability of a global economic slowdown. In a year of higher interest rates and lower economic growth, underperformance is striking considering that global REITs have resilient earnings compared to broad market equities, growing dividends compared to bonds, and the same underlying assets as private real estate.

While all regions were down for the year, the Asia-Pacific region outperformed the benchmark (-9.0%), while the Americas (-25.6%) and Europe (-40.9%) lagged. In most markets, we believed underlying fundamentals remained strong. The average earnings growth for the sector averaged slightly over 10% and dividend growth in 2022 was nearly 15%. Companies in several regions and sectors saw material increases in occupancy and were able to raise rents accordingly.

Before fees and expenses, the Portfolio outperformed the benchmark during the period as value was added in each of the three major geographic regions. Sector allocation decisions drove the outperformance as stock selection modestly detracted from relative performance during the period. The European region was the top contributor to performance, followed by the Americas and the Asia-Pacific region.

In Europe, stock selection and sector allocations contributed to relative performance. The portfolio was under-weight both the U.K. as well as on the Continent as these markets underperformed for the year. Stock selection on the Continent was positive but stock selection in the U.K. was a slight detractor from performance. Relative out performance within the Americas region was driven by positive stock selection in Canada as well as positive contributions from positioning in the U.S. data center, mall and healthcare sectors. The portfolio continues to be under-weight the U.S. office sector, which helped performance as conditions continue to be challenging given the shift to a more flexible work environment. In the Asia-Pacific region, relative performance was essentially flat as positive sector allocation within the region was mostly offset by sub-par stock selection. Favorable positioning in Japan and Hong Kong was mostly offset by underperformance in Australia.

Current Strategy and Outlook: We believe that the underperformance of global REITs in 2022 has created an opportunity for investors. At the end of the year, global REITs traded at a ˜18% discount to estimates of NAV or intrinsic value — estimates that we have already lowered by ˜14% to reflect market conditions and the current economic landscape. Historically, when REIT valuations have traded at material discounts to NAV, we believe investors have benefited from buying the space.

We believe real estate stocks are oversold and are very attractively valued relative to private market real estate. In addition, we think real estate stocks offer above-average and growing dividend yields, inflation-protected earnings growth, and a history of outperformance during periods of above-average inflation. We believe investors committing capital to listed real estate at this time have the potential to earn an attractive absolute and relative long-term total return.

We believe we own a well-balanced Portfolio of securities that have been screened for, in our view, their growth prospects in combination with the quality of their business models, assets, balance sheets, and management teams. We are positive on property types, regions, and stocks that offer these qualities at reasonable valuations.

In North America, we are overweight Canadian real estate stocks with an emphasis on residential, industrial, and retail. In the U.S., we are overweight single-family home for rent, storage, malls, hotels, and data centers. In Japan, we prefer mid-cap diversified and hotel J-REITs that are providing earnings growth and resiliency at very attractive relative valuations and select Japanese REOCs that have committed to improving their corporate governance. In Hong Kong, we are overweight diversified companies with a commercial bias and non-discretionary retail. In Australia, we prefer retail, industrial, and a few select diversified companies. In the U.K., we favor the storage and residential sectors, as well as attractively priced diversified companies. Within Continental Europe, we have a positive bias to retail, industrial, storage, and select diversified companies.

VY® Invesco Growth and Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks long-term growth of capital and income. The Portfolio is managed by Brian Jurkash, co-lead portfolio manager, Matthew Titus, co-lead portfolio manager and Sergio Marcheli, portfolio manager, of Invesco Advisers, Inc. — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -5.84%, compared to the Russell 1000® Value Index, which returned -7.54%, for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio outperformed the index.

Stock selection in health care was the largest contributor to relative performance during the year. Within the sector, Merck, McKesson and Cigna were strong individual contributors. Merck benefitted from strong sales of its oral antiviral Covid treatment. McKesson recently divested its underperforming pharmacy business in Europe that was a drag on growth and margins. Cigna’s customer retention exceeded management’s internal estimates, and the company affirmed its earnings outlook for the year.

Stock selection in energy also contributed to the Portfolio’s outperformance during the year. Energy stocks benefitted from rising oil prices due to a rebound in demand following the pandemic, the conflict in Ukraine, OPEC production cuts and energy shortages abroad.

Security selection in industrials also contributed to the Portfolio’s relative return, due largely to Raytheon Technologies and Quanta Services. Aerospace and defense company Raytheon performed well, particularly due to an increase in defense spending following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Quanta Services benefitted from an increase in spending for renewable energy infrastructure and the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act, which provided incentives for green energy.

The Portfolio’s overweight and stock selection in information technology was the largest detractor from relative performance for the year, due in part to Cognizant Technology Solutions and Intel. Higher labor costs and staffing issues weighed on Cognizant’s stock. Intel reported earnings that came in far below expectations. The chipmaker also reduced guidance for the remainder of the year amid worsening macro conditions and weak PC demand.

Selection in consumer discretionary also detracted from relative performance, due primarily to General Motors (GM) and Amazon. GM has faced ongoing supply-chain related issues that have hurt results. Amazon reported weaker than expected revenues and operating income. Management also lowered its outlook due to macroeconomic headwinds and inflationary pressures.

Stock selection in the communication services sector was another detractor from relative performance. After achieving strong gains and robust new subscriber growth amid the pandemic, Walt Disney, Charter Communications and Netflix faced a weaking outlook as Covid lockdowns eased.

The Portfolio held currency forward contracts for the purpose of hedging currency exposure of non-US-based companies held in the Portfolio. These derivatives were not for speculative purposes or leverage, and these positions had a positive impact on the Portfolio’s relative performance for the year.

Current Strategy and Outlook: During the year, the team increased the number of holdings in the energy and IT sectors and reduced holdings in industrials, materials and utilities. At year end, the Portfolio’s largest relative overweight exposures were in IT and energy, while the largest underweights were in utilities and consumer staples.

We believe market volatility will continue as the Fed’s rate increases gradually work through the economy and recession risks rise. Regardless of the market environment, we seek to invest in companies with attractive valuations and strong fundamentals, qualities that we believe will ultimately be reflected in those companies’ stock prices.

VY® JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks capital appreciation. The Portfolio is managed by Austin Forey, Managing Director, Leon Eidelman, CFA and Managing Director, and Amit Mehta, CFA and Executive Director; each a Portfolio Manager of J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S Shares provided a total return of -26.11% compared to the MSCI Emerging Markets IndexSM (“MSCI EM IndexSM”), which returned -20.09% for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the period, stock selection detracted from relative returns while country allocation contributed.

In the information technology sector, stock selection was a headwind to performance. The Portfolio’s exposure to Silergy, an integrated circuit manufacturer, underperformed because of concerns that slowing demand from a weakening global economy might dampen growth prospects.

The Portfolio’s off-benchmark position to Uruguay, also detracted from relative performance. This was specifically driven by exposure to MercadoLibre, a leading e-commerce company in Latin America. Consumer discretionary companies that are growing quickly, but where sustained profitability is only expected in later years, have been hit the hardest as investors have sold out of longer duration assets as bond yields have soared on concerns over accelerating inflation.

Commodities prices climbed during the past year and the Portfolio’s underweight exposure to Gulf States such as Saudi Arabia, detracted as these markets benefitted from commodity strength. Companies in the energy and materials sectors generally struggle to meet our standards on economics, duration, and governance or offer compelling long term expected returns.

On the positive side, stock selection in Mexico hurt performance, most notably driven by the Portfolio’s exposure to Walmart de Mexico (“Walmex”), the Mexican subsidiary of Walmart. Despite high inflation pressuring overall consumer purchasing power in Mexico, Walmex has benefited from robust retail demand that is supported by strong remittances.

Overweight exposure, the result of stock selection, to the financials sector aided performance. In Indonesia, Bank Rakyat Indonesia outperformed led by a credible domestic reform agenda and stronger commodity prices, driving improved economic growth in the region. Loan growth and margin expansion have driven stronger results for the company during 2022.

The Portfolio’s overweight exposure to India also boosted relative returns, as the market proved to be more defensive than the broader universe. Indian equities performed very well as investors looked outside of Korea, China, and Taiwan for regional exposure.

Current Strategy and Outlook: 2022 was a tough year for emerging markets (“EM”) equities as the index fell by 23% over the full year, but we believe there are more reasons to be more optimistic for 2023. The Russia-Ukraine conflict, Covid resurgence in China and tightening US monetary policy posed various challenges to EM markets over the course of 2022. While these issues are not fully behind us, as the new year begins, there are two coiled springs that we believe are likely to unwind in 2023: the strong US Dollar and China’s zero-covid restrictions. In our view, the release of both could well be tailwinds for EM equities, especially after the large swathe of EM earnings downgrades seen last year.

While there may still be further downside pressure on earnings for companies in the near-term, at some point in the year a shift from slowdown concerns to likely recovery is expected. Given the uncertainty on the exact timings of these shifts, it is even more important that we stick to our framework. Thus, we continue to look for what we believe are opportunities in EM equities where earnings growth can compound over the long-run.

VY® Morgan Stanley Global Franchise Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Portfolio is managed by William D. Lock, Managing Director, Bruno Paulson, Managing Director, Nic Sochovsky, Managing Director, Vladimir A. Demine, Executive Director, Marcus Watson, Executive Director, Alex Gabriele, Executive Director, Nathan Wong, Executive Director, and Richard Perrott, Executive Director, Portfolio Managers of Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc. — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -17.58% compared to the MSCI World IndexSM (“MSCI World” or the “Index”), which returned -18.14% for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: For 2022, outperformance was driven by sector allocation, helped by the Portfolio’s overweight positions in the defensive Health Care and Consumer Staples sectors, which held up well in the year. The Consumer Discretionary underweight and absence of Communication Services stocks were also beneficial, offsetting the drag from the overweight to Information Technology and zero weight to Energy. The negative stock selection was driven by Health Care underperformance, as the Portfolio is concentrated in the Life Sciences and Equipment sub-sectors rather than Pharmaceuticals and Providers. Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary outperformance was insufficient to compensate.

Current Strategy and Outlook: In our opinion, the outlook remains cautious entering 2023. Last year’s de-rating has reduced, but not completely removed, the multiple risk. The main risk is now down to earnings, which we believe remain elevated. A downturn is the main short-term risk to earnings, with Recessionary Bear Markets seeing a median 17% earnings fall. Pricing power and recurring revenues are likely to become evident and valuable in the case of any slowdown. Pricing power, underpinned by brands, networks or mission-critical products, allows companies to pass on input costs to customers. Recurring revenues, due to purchasing habits or subscription models, protect top-line in any slowdown. We believe a quality focus should offer resilient earnings at reasonable valuations.

VY® T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks, over the long-term, a high total investment return, consistent with the preservation of capital and with prudent investment risk. The Portfolio is managed by David R. Giroux, CFA and Vice President of T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -12.18%. By comparison, the S&P 500® Index, the Bloomberg U.S. Government/Credit Index, and the 60% S&P 500® Index/40% Bloomberg U.S. Government/Credit Index returned -18.11%, -13.58% and -16.00%, respectively, for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: In 2022, the Portfolio posted a negative return but strongly outperformed the S&P 500 Index. The Portfolio’s equity holdings posted a negative return but outpaced its benchmark, S&P 500® Index. The Portfolio’s fixed income holdings posted a negative return during the one-year period but outperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

Our overall fixed income weight increased compared to the beginning of the year. Our largest exposure remains in bank loans, which we believe at current levels offer attractive risk-adjusted return profiles. We also like that bank loans are at the top of the capital structure and benefit from rising interest rates.

Within equities, the consumer discretionary sector boosted relative returns due to strong stock selection. Shares of Yum! Brands, parent company of Taco Bell, KFC, and Pizza Hut, declined but strongly outperformed sector peers. Despite some pressure on international sales due to pandemic-related lockdowns in China and suspended operations in Russia, the company posted strong same-store sales in other regions, as well as better-than-expected new unit growth. The information technology sector also contributed to relative returns due to stock selection and a moderate overweight allocation. NXP Semiconductors is a Netherlands-based diversified, mixed-signal semiconductor manufacturer and the largest supplier of chips to the automotive industry. An overweight allocation and stock selection in the utilities sector also aided relative returns. Conversely, the energy sector detracted from relative performance due to an underweight allocation. Energy was by far the best-performing sector during the year, outperforming the overall S&P 500® Index. The sector surged with oil and natural gas prices in the early part of the year and benefited late in the period from progress in the post-pandemic economic reopening of China. The health care sector also hurt relative results due to weak stock selection, which was offset by an overweight allocation. Shares of diagnostic and life sciences equipment maker PerkinElmer underperformed as investors appeared to cool on the life sciences and tools industry after a period of strong returns driven by the demand for equipment needed to test for COVID-19.

Additionally, markets had a negative initial reaction to the company’s announced planned divesture of a large business segment focused on applied science in biopharmaceuticals and food and environmental safety.

The Portfolio’s covered call strategy provided positive performance impact.

Current Strategy and Outlook: Notwithstanding the year-end rally that pared earlier losses, U.S. equity markets suffered their worst decline in over a decade this calendar year. While myriad factors contributed to the global downturn, we believe the linked pair of elevated inflation and rising interest rates were the primary culprits in the U.S. Even as the rate of inflation appeared to recede and the Fed began to moderate the pace of its rate hikes, markets pulled back on speculation of a seemingly inevitable tightening-induced recession. A recession remains a realistic outcome, although we believe this scenario would produce an unusual environment as pockets of the market are already at trough levels. At current levels, we have a more constructive outlook for markets, particularly over the intermediate term where recent dislocation has created pockets of opportunity for long-term investors.

VY® T. Rowe Price Equity Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks a high level of dividend income as well as long-term growth of capital primarily through investments in stocks. The Portfolio is managed by John Linehan, CFA, Head of U.S. Equity and Portfolio Manager of T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -3.41% compared to the Russell 1000® Value Index and the S&P 500® Index, which returned -7.54% and -18.11% respectively, for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: Financials was the primary contributor for the period, due to strong stock selection. American International Group outperformed the financials sector over the period. Shares benefited from a strong property and casualty pricing cycle that allowed the company to focus on pushing price, in addition to improved underwriting. The company’s life and retirement business line, which was spun off in September 2022, had a mixed impact on the stock as capital markets pressure impacted earnings and a declining investment portfolio impacted book value.

Favorable stock choices in the health care sector also aided relative performance. Shares of AbbVie outperformed the health care sector over the year-to-date period. Shares advanced in April after the FDA approved Rinvoq and Skyrizi for use, which may help balance sales deficits from Humira’s patent loss in 2023. Later in the period, shares were negatively impacted as the company reported a revenue miss driven by headwinds in its Aesthetics business.

The consumer discretionary sector also contributed to relative returns due to strong stock picks coupled with an underweight allocation. Shares of Las Vegas Sands have lagged reopening peers as China’s increased lockdowns throughout the year delayed reopening in Macau. Shares benefitted during the third and fourth quarter due to a strong recovery in its Singapore operations, which helped offset some of costs associates with Macau. Additionally, during the fourth quarter, shares surged following news of Las Vegas Sands and other gaming companies signing 10-year contracts with the Macau government, renewing their casino licenses for the next decade.

Conversely, weak stock selection in the energy sector detracted from relative performance. Shares of TC Energy detracted from relative performance over the calendar-year period. Shares were lifted early in the year as global natural gas prices dramatically rose following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In the third quarter, shares were pressured as capital markets risk and a higher interest rate environment weighed on performance. In early December, shares were again pressured as the company’s Keystone pipeline was shut down following reporting a leak of 14,000 barrels.

The industrials and business services sector also hindered relative performance due to unfavorable stock choices.

Current Strategy and Outlook: We believe the range of outcomes in the equity market remains abnormally wide. We expect continued volatility, as investors react to new metrics as they are reported. Amid such uncertainty, we believe there is risk in being too anchored to a particular macro outlook. The balance of economic data suggests a recession is imminent, although such an event is broadly anticipated, making the eventual recession arguably the “most consensus” one in history. We believe the severity of the recession will depend on the degree to which the Federal Reserve (Fed) targets the labor market, which remains tight even as economic data weaken. Should the Fed “declare victory” at an inflation level above its stated target, the equity market would likely rally. Conversely, if the Fed’s aim is to disrupt the labor market, the equity market may move lower.

Since we have no edge in determining the probable outcome, we believe it is important to respect the uncertainty of this environment and use it to our client’s advantage by selectively leaning into weakness and trimming on strength. We will also seek to maintain balance in the portfolio, which should help make our performance less dependent on a particular macroeconomic outcome and offer a chance to outperform in a variety of markets. While there are many near-term unknowns in this environment, we remain confident in our approach and believe individual stock picking, a focus on fundamentals, and a valuation discipline will be rewarded.

Effective May 25, 2018, the Portfolio changed its benchmark from the S&P 500® Index to the Russell 1000® Value Index because the Russell 1000® Value Index is considered by the Sub-Adviser to be a more appropriate benchmark that better aligns with the Portfolio’s value-focused investment style.

As a shareholder of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Portfolio expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The Portfolios’ expenses are shown without the imposition of any charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract, variable life insurance policy, qualified pension, or retirement plan. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.

Actual Expenses

The left section of the table shown below, “Actual Portfolio Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The right section of the table shown below, “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses),” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Portfolio’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 the ongoing costs of investing in a Portfolio and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio, VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio (formerly, VY® Clarion Global Real Estate Portfolio), VY® Invesco Growth and Income Portfolio, VY® JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio, VY® Morgan Stanley Global Franchise Portfolio, VY® T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio and VY® T. Rowe Price Equity Income Portfolio and the Board of Trustees of Voya Investors Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio, VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio (formerly, VY® Clarion Global Real Estate Portfolio), VY® Invesco Growth and Income Portfolio, VY® JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio, VY® Morgan Stanley Global Franchise Portfolio, VY® T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio and VY® T. Rowe Price Equity Income Portfolio (collectively referred to as the “Portfolios”) (seven of the portfolios constituting Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”)), including the portfolios of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Portfolios (seven of the portfolios constituting Voya Investors Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and their financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The financial highlights for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated February 21, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolios’ 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 Trust 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 in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such 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 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers and others, we performed other auditing procedures. 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more Voya investment companies since 2019.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION

Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act” or the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on August 3, 1988. The Trust consists of twenty-one active separate investment series. The seven series (each a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”) included in this report are: Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio (“Government Liquid Assets”), VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio (“CBRE Global Real Estate”), VY® Invesco Growth and Income Portfolio (“Invesco Growth and Income”), VY® JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio (“JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity”), VY® Morgan Stanley Global Franchise Portfolio (“Morgan Stanley Global Franchise”), VY® T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio (“T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation”), and VY® T. Rowe Price Equity Income Portfolio (“T. Rowe Price Equity Income). All of the Portfolios are diversified except for Morgan Stanley Global Franchise, which is a non-diversified Portfolio of the Trust. The investment objective of the Portfolios is described in the respective Portfolio’s Prospectus. Prior to May 1, 2022, VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio was known as VY® Clarion Global Real Estate Portfolio.

The classes of shares included in this report are: Adviser (“Class ADV”), Institutional (“Class I”), Class R6, Service (“Class S”) and Service 2 (“Class S2”); however, each Portfolio may not offer all share classes. With the exception of class specific matters, each class has equal voting rights as to voting privileges. For class specific proposals, only the applicable class would have voting privileges. The classes differ principally in the applicable distribution and shareholder service fees, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses, if any. Generally, shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders are allocated the common expenses of a portfolio and earn income and realized gains/losses from a portfolio pro rata based on the daily ending net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses that are specific to a portfolio or a class are charged directly to that portfolio or class. Other operating expenses shared by several portfolios are generally allocated among those portfolios based on average net assets. Distributions are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocated to each class. Realized gain distributions are allocated to each class pro rata based on the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder service fees, if any, as well as differences in the amount of

waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses between the separate classes, if any.

Voya Investments, LLC (“Voya Investments” or the “Investment Adviser”), an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the Investment Adviser to the Portfolios. Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the sub-adviser to Government Liquid Assets. Voya Investments Distributor, LLC (“VID” or the “Distributor”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the principal underwriter to the Portfolios.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Portfolio is considered an investment company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A. Security Valuation. Each Portfolio is open for business every day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) opens for regular trading (each such day, a “Business Day”). The net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of each Portfolio is determined each Business Day as of the close of the regular trading session (“Market Close”), as determined by the Consolidated Tape Association (“CTA”), the central distributor of transaction prices for exchange-traded securities (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time unless otherwise designated by the CTA). The NAV per share of each class of each Portfolio is calculated by taking the value of the Portfolio’s assets attributable to that class, subtracting the Portfolio’s liabilities attributable to that class, and dividing by the number of shares of that class that are outstanding. On days when a Portfolio is closed for business, Portfolio shares will not be priced and a Portfolio does not transact purchase and redemption orders. To the extent a Portfolio’s assets are traded in other markets on days when a Portfolio does not price its shares, the value of a Portfolio’s assets will likely change and you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of a Portfolio.

Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. Investments in open-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day NAV per share. The prospectuses of the open-end registered investment companies in which each Portfolio may invest explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing. Foreign securities’ prices are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of Market Close.


35


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

When a market quotation for a portfolio security is not readily available or is deemed unreliable (for example when trading has been halted or there are unexpected market closures or other material events that would suggest that the market quotation is unreliable) and for purposes of determining the value of other Portfolio assets, the asset is priced at its fair value. The Board has designated the Investment Adviser, as the valuation designee, to make fair value determinations in good faith. In determining the fair value of each Portfolio’s assets, the Investment Adviser, pursuant to its fair valuation policy, may consider inputs from pricing service providers, broker-dealers, or each Portfolio’s sub-adviser(s). Issuer specific events, transaction price, position size, nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of an asset’s fair value. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before Market Close, closing market quotations may become unreliable. The prices of foreign securities will generally be adjusted based on inputs from an independent pricing service that are intended to reflect valuation changes through the NYSE close. Because of the inherent uncertainties of fair valuation, the values used to determine each Portfolio’s NAV may materially differ from the value received upon actual sale of those investments. Thus, fair valuation may have an unintended dilutive or accretive effect on the value of shareholders’ investments in each Portfolio.

The Portfolios’ financial instruments are valued at the close of the NYSE and are reported at fair value, which GAAP defines as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Various valuation techniques and inputs are used to determine the fair value of financial instruments. GAAP establishes the following fair value hierarchy that categorizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments that the portfolio can access at the reporting date.

Level 2 — inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in inactive markets, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads).

Level 3 — unobservable inputs (including the portfolio’s own assumptions in determining fair value).

Observable inputs are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, and reflect the assumptions that market participants would use to price the financial instrument. Unobservable inputs are those for which market data are not available and are developed using the best information available about the assumptions that market participants would use to price the financial instrument. GAAP requires valuation techniques to maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. When multiple inputs are used to derive fair value, the financial instrument is assigned to the level within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value of the financial instrument. Input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with financial instruments at that level but rather the degree of judgment used in determining those values.

A table summarizing each Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within each Portfolio of Investments.

Government Liquid Assets uses the amortized cost method to value its portfolio securities and seeks to maintain a constant NAV of $1.00 per share, although there may be circumstances under which this goal cannot be achieved. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security at its cost and amortizing any discount or premium over the period until maturity, regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates or the market value of the security. Although the Board has established procedures designed to stabilize, to the extent reasonably possible, the share price of Government Liquid Assets, there can be no assurance that the Portfolio’s NAV can be maintained at $1.00 per share.

Each investment asset or liability of the Portfolios is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” inputs other than quoted prices for an asset or liability that are observable are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the sub-advisers’ or Pricing Committee’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality are generally considered to be Level 2 securities under applicable accounting rules. A table summarizing each Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within the Portfolio of Investments.

GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes


36


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. A reconciliation of Level 3 investments within the Portfolio of Investments is presented only when a Portfolio has a significant amount of Level 3 investments.

B. Securities Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Portfolios. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method. CBRE Global Real Estate estimates components of distributions from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). Distributions received in excess of income are recorded as a reduction of cost of the related investments. If CBRE Global Real Estate no longer owns the applicable securities, any distributions received in excess of income are recorded as realized gains.

C. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

 
 (1) 
  Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at Market Close.

 
 (2) 
  Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at Market Close, the Portfolios do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or

losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding tax reclaims recorded on each Portfolios’ books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. The foregoing risks are even greater with respect to securities of issuers in emerging markets.

D. Distributions to Shareholders. The Portfolios record distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly and net capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually by Government Liquid Assets. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually and net capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually by T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation and T. Rowe Price Equity Income. For all other Portfolios, dividends from net investment income and net capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually. The Portfolios may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies.

E. Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of each Portfolio to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, a federal income tax or excise tax provision is not required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Portfolios’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until the capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized.

The Portfolios may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain.


37


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

F. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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.

G. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Portfolios’ investment strategies permit the Portfolios to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, a Portfolio will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the level or types of exposure to risk factors. This may allow a Portfolio to pursue its objectives more quickly, and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of affecting a similar response to market or credit factors.

In pursuit of its investment objectives, a Portfolio may seek to increase or decrease its exposure to the following market or credit risk factors:

Credit Risk. The price of a bond or other debt instrument is likely to fall if the issuer’s actual or perceived financial health deteriorates, whether because of broad economic or issuer-specific reasons. In certain cases, the issuer could be late in paying interest or principal, or could fail to pay its financial obligations altogether.

Equity Risk. Stock prices may be volatile or have reduced liquidity in response to real or perceived impacts of factors including, but not limited to, economic conditions, changes in market interest rates, and political events. Stock markets tend to be cyclical, with periods when stock prices generally rise and periods when stock prices generally decline. Any given stock market segment may remain out of favor with investors for a short or long period of time, and stocks as an asset class may underperform bonds or other asset classes during some periods. Additionally, legislative, regulatory or tax policies or developments in these areas may adversely impact the investment techniques available to a manager, add to costs and impair the ability of a Portfolio to achieve its investment objectives.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. To the extent that a Portfolio invests directly in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities denominated in, or that trade in, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, it is subject to the risk that those foreign

(non-U.S.) currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged by a Portfolio through foreign currency exchange transactions.

Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. Currency rates may be affected by changes in market interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, by the imposition of currency controls, or other political or economic developments in the United States or abroad.

Interest Rate Risk. With bonds and other fixed rate debt instruments, a rise in market interest rates generally causes values to fall; conversely, values generally rise as market interest rates fall. The higher the credit quality of the instrument, and the longer its maturity or duration, the more sensitive it is likely to be to interest rate risk. As of the date of this report, the United States experiences a rising market interest rate environment, which may increase a Portfolio’s exposure to risks associated with rising market interest rates. Rising market interest rates have unpredictable effects on the markets and may expose fixed-income and related markets to heightened volatility. For a fund that invests in fixed-income securities, an increase in market interest rates may lead to increased redemptions and increased portfolio turnover, which could reduce liquidity for certain investments, adversely affect values, and increase costs. If dealer capacity in fixed-income markets is insufficient for market conditions, it may further inhibit liquidity and increase volatility in the fixed-income markets. Further, recent and potential changes in government policy may affect interest rates.

Risks of Investing in Derivatives. A Portfolio’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market or credit risk factors and the overall market. In instances where a Portfolio is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market or credit risk factors for securities held by a Portfolio, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.

Derivative instruments are subject to a number of risks, including the risk of changes in the market price of the underlying securities, credit risk with respect to the counterparty, risk of loss due to changes in market interest rates and liquidity and volatility risk. The amounts required to purchase certain derivatives may be small relative to the magnitude of exposure assumed by a Portfolio. Therefore, the purchase of certain derivatives may have an economic leveraging effect on a Portfolio and exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV. Derivatives may not


38


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

perform as expected, so a Portfolio may not realize the intended benefits. When used for hedging purposes, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the currency, security or other risk being hedged. When used as an alternative or substitute for direct cash investments, the return provided by the derivative may not provide the same return as direct cash investment. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose a Portfolio to the risk of improper valuation.

Generally, derivatives are sophisticated financial instruments whose performance is derived, at least in part, from the performance of an underlying asset or assets. Derivatives include, among other things, swap agreements, options, forwards and futures. Investments in derivatives are generally negotiated over-the-counter (“OTC”) with a single counterparty and as a result are subject to credit risks related to the counterparty’s ability or willingness to perform its obligations; any deterioration in the counterparty’s creditworthiness could adversely affect the value of the derivative. In addition, derivatives and their underlying securities may experience periods of illiquidity which could cause a Portfolio to hold a security it might otherwise sell, or to sell a security it otherwise might hold at inopportune times or at an unanticipated price. A manager might imperfectly judge the direction of the market. For instance, if a derivative is used as a hedge to offset investment risk in another security, the hedge might not correlate to the market’s movements and may have unexpected or undesired results such as a loss or a reduction in gains.

Counterparty Credit Risk and Credit Related Contingent Features. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to a Portfolio. Each Portfolio’s derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. A Portfolio intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that it believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. To reduce this risk, a Portfolio enters into master netting arrangements, established within each Portfolio’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreements (“Master Agreements”). These Master Agreements are with select counterparties and they govern transactions, including certain OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts, entered into by a Portfolio and the counterparty. The Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate

all of its contracts and affect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable Master Agreement.

A Portfolio may also enter into collateral agreements with certain counterparties to further mitigate counterparty credit risk on OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts. Subject to established minimum levels, collateral is generally determined based on the net aggregate unrealized gain or loss on contracts with a certain counterparty. Collateral pledged to or from a Portfolio is held in a segregated account by a third-party agent and can be in the form of cash or debt securities issued by the U.S. government or related agencies.

As of December 31, 2022, the maximum amount of loss that Invesco Growth and Income would incur if its counterparties failed to perform would be $167,548 which represents the gross payments to be received on open forward foreign currency contracts were they to be unwound as of December 31, 2022. There was no collateral pledged by any counterparty at December 31, 2022 to any Portfolio.

Certain Portfolios have entered into derivative contracts that contain credit related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivative counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from a Portfolio. Credit related contingent features are established between each Portfolio and its derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that a Portfolio will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in a Portfolio’s net assets and/or a percentage decrease in a Portfolio’s NAV, which could cause a Portfolio to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty. The contingent features are established within each Portfolio’s Master Agreements.

As of December 31, 2022, Invesco Growth and Income and T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation had a liability position of $29,202 and $11,096,460, respectively, on open forward foreign currency contracts and open OTC written options. If a contingent feature would have been triggered as of December 31, 2022, each Portfolio could have been required to pay these amounts in cash to its counterparties. There was no cash collateral pledged by any Portfolio as of December 31, 2022.

H. Forward Foreign Currency Transactions and Futures Contracts. Certain Portfolios may enter into forward foreign currency contracts primarily to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risks on their non-U.S. dollar denominated investment securities. When entering into a forward currency contract, the Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed future

date. These contracts are valued daily and a Portfolio’s net equity therein, representing unrealized gain or loss on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date, is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in the Statements of Operations. These instruments involve market and/or credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movement in currency and securities values and interest rates. Open forward foreign currency contracts are presented following the respective Portfolio of Investments.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the following Portfolios had average contract amounts on forward foreign currency contracts purchased and sold as disclosed below. The Portfolios used forward foreign currency contracts primarily to protect any non-U.S. dollar-denominated holdings from adverse currency movements. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for Invesco Growth and Income for open forward foreign currency contracts at December 31, 2022. There were no open forward foreign currency contracts for CBRE Global Real Estate at December 31, 2022.

Each Portfolio may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and security indices. A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future date. Each Portfolio may buy and sell futures contracts. Futures contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when the Portfolio’s assets are valued.

Upon entering into a futures contract, each Portfolio is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Portfolio each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses and, if any, shown as variation margin receivable or payable on futures contracts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Open futures contracts are reported on a table following each Portfolio of Investments. Securities held in

collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are footnoted in the Portfolio of Investments, if any. Cash collateral held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in each Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is reported in each Portfolio’s Statement of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported in each Portfolio’s Statement of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.

Futures contracts are exposed to the market risk factor of the underlying financial instrument. Futures contracts are purchased to provide immediate market exposure proportionate to the size of each Portfolio’s respective cash flows and residual cash balances in order to decrease potential tracking error if the cash remained uninvested in the market. Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where the Portfolios are unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of the Portfolios’ securities. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Portfolios since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

The Portfolios did not enter into any futures contracts for the year ended December 31, 2022.

I. Options Contracts. Certain Portfolios may purchase put and call options and may write (sell) put options and covered call options. The Portfolios may engage in option transactions as a hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings or to increase market exposure. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded based upon the last sales price on the principal exchange on which the options are traded. An amount equal to the proceeds of the premium received by the Portfolios upon the writing of a put or call option is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and equivalent liability which is subsequently marked-to-market until it is exercised or closed, or it expires. The Portfolios will realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the option contract. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales of the underlying security for a written call option, the purchase cost of the security for a written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on option contracts are reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The risk in writing a covered call option is that the Portfolios give up the


40


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Portfolios may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Portfolios pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Risks may also arise from an illiquid secondary market or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation had written equity options with an average notional value of $711,936,226 to generate income. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for open written equity options at December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation had pledged securities fair valued at $69,177,600 for open written call options and these are footnoted within the Portfolio of Investments.

J. Repurchase Agreements. Each Portfolio may invest in repurchase agreements only with government securities dealers recognized by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Under such agreements, the seller of the security agrees to repurchase it at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The resale price is in excess of the purchase price and reflects an agreed upon interest rate for the period of time the agreement is outstanding. The period of the repurchase agreements is usually short, from overnight to one week, while the underlying securities generally have longer maturities. Each Portfolio will receive as collateral securities acceptable to it whose market value is equal to at least 100% of the carrying amount of the repurchase agreement, plus accrued interest, being invested by a Portfolio. The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to assure that the value, including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. If the seller defaults, a Portfolio might incur a loss or delay in the realization of proceeds if the value of the security collateralizing the repurchase agreement declines, and may incur disposition costs in liquidating the collateral.

Repurchase agreements are entered into by the Portfolios under Master Repurchase Agreements (“MRA”) which permit the Portfolios, under certain circumstances, including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset receivables or payables under the MRA with collateral held and/or pledged by the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the respective Portfolio. Please refer to the table following the Portfolio of Investments for Government Liquid Assets for open repurchase agreements subject to the MRA on a net basis at December 31, 2022.

K. Securities Lending. Each Portfolio may temporarily loan up to 33⅓% (except for JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity which may temporarily loan up to 30%) of its total assets to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender’s fee. Securities lending involves two primary risks: “investment risk” and “borrower default risk.” When lending securities, the Portfolios will receive cash or U.S. government securities as collateral. Investment risk is the risk that the Portfolios will lose money from the investment of the cash collateral received from the borrower. Borrower default risk is the risk that the Portfolios will lose money due to the failure of a borrower to return a borrowed security. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Portfolios. Securities lending may result in leverage. The use of leverage may exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV, causing the Portfolios to be more volatile. The use of leverage may increase expenses and increase the impact of the Portfolios’ other risks.

L. Restricted Securities. The Portfolios may invest in restricted securities, which include those sold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”) or securities offered pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act, and/or are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may not be publicly sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Restricted securities are fair valued using market quotations when readily available. In the absence of market quotations, the securities are valued based upon their fair value determined in good faith under procedures approved by the Board.

Securities that are not registered for sale to the public under the 1933 Act are referred to as “restricted securities.” These securities may be sold in private placement transactions between issuers and their purchasers and may be neither listed on an exchange nor traded in other established markets. Many times these securities are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. As a result of the absence of a public trading market, the prices of these securities may be more volatile, less liquid and more difficult to value than publicly traded securities. The price realized from the sale of these securities could be less than the amount originally paid or less than their fair value if they are resold in privately negotiated transactions. In addition, these securities may not be subject to disclosure and other investment protection requirements that are afforded to publicly traded securities. Certain investments may include investment in smaller, less seasoned issuers, which may involve greater risk.

M. Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under


41

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Portfolios and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, management considers the risk of loss from such claims remote.

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES

CBRE Global Real Estate has entered into an investment management agreement (“Management Agreement”) with the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser has overall responsibility for the management of the Portfolios. The Investment Adviser oversees all investment management and portfolio management services for the Portfolios and assists in managing and supervising all aspects of the general day-to-day business activities and operations of the Portfolios, including custodial, transfer agency, dividend disbursing, accounting, auditing, compliance and related services. The Management Agreement compensates the Investment Adviser with a management fee, computed daily and payable monthly, based on the average daily net assets of each Portfolio, at the following annual rates:

Portfolio   Fee
CBRE Global Real Estate(1)
 
0.90% on the first $250 million;
0.875% on the next $250 million;
0.80% on the amount in excess of $500 million
 
(1)
  The Investment Adviser is contractually obligated to waive 0.033% of the management fee for CBRE Global Real Estate. Any fees waived or reimbursed are not eligible for recoupment. Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board.

With the exception of the Portfolio in the table above, the Investment Adviser provides the Portfolios with advisory and administrative services under a management

agreement (the “Unified Agreement”). Under the Unified Agreement, the Investment Adviser has overall responsibility for engaging sub-advisers and for monitoring and evaluating the management of the assets of each Portfolio. Sub-advisers have full investment discretion and make all determinations with respect to the investment of a Portfolio’s assets and the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and other investments. Pursuant to this Unified Agreement, the Investment Adviser is also responsible for providing or procuring, at the Investment Adviser’s expense, the services reasonably necessary for the ordinary operation of each Portfolio, including, among other things, custodial, administrative, transfer agency, portfolio accounting, auditing, affiliated recordkeeping services and ordinary legal expenses. As compensation for its services under the Unified Agreement, the Trust pays the Investment Adviser a monthly fee (a “Unified Fee”) based on the following annual rates of the average daily net assets of the Portfolios:

Portfolio   Fee
Government Liquid Assets(2)
 
0.35% on the first $200 million;
0.30% on the next $300 million;

0.65% on the next $1.5 billion;
0.60% on the amount in excess of $3.5 billion
 
(2)
  The assets of Government Liquid Assets are aggregated with those of Voya Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio, which is not included in this report, to determine the Unified Fee applicable to the Portfolio.
(3)
  The Investment Adviser is contractually obligated to waive 0.026%, 0.030% and 0.030% of the Unified Fee for Morgan Stanley Global Franchise, T. Rowe Price Equity Income and Invesco Growth and Income, respectively. Any fees waived or reimbursed are not eligible for recoupment. Termination or modification of these obligations requires approval by the Board.
(4)
  The assets of Invesco Growth and Income, T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation and T. Rowe Price Equity Income are aggregated with those of VY® CBRE Real Estate Portfolio, which is not included in this report, to determine the Unified Fee applicable to the respective Portfolios.

The Investment Adviser has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with each respective sub-adviser. These sub-advisers provide investment advice for certain Portfolios and are paid by the Investment Adviser based on the average daily net assets of the respective Portfolios. Subject to such policies as the Board or Investment Adviser may determine, the sub-advisers manage each respective Portfolio’s assets in accordance with the Portfolio’s investment objectives, policies, and limitations.

NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES

The Trust has entered into a shareholder service plan (the “Plan”) for each Portfolio that offers Class S and Class S2 shares. The Plan compensates the Distributor for the provision of shareholder services and/or account maintenance services to direct or indirect beneficial owners of Class S and Class S2 shares. Under the Plan, each Portfolio makes payments to the Distributor at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class S and Class S2 shares, respectively. Each Portfolio that offers Class S2 shares has entered into a distribution plan (the “Class S2 Plan”) with the Distributor on behalf of the Class S2 shares of the Portfolio. The Class S2 Plan provides that the Class S2 shares shall pay a distribution fee for distribution services, including payments to the Distributor at an annual rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class S2 shares.

Each Portfolio that offers Class ADV shares has a shareholder service and distribution plan. Class ADV shares pay a service fee of 0.25% and a distribution fee of 0.35% of each Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class ADV shares.

The Distributor and the Investment Adviser have contractually agreed to waive a portion of their distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees and Unified Fee, as applicable, and to reimburse certain expenses to the extent necessary to assist Government Liquid Assets in maintaining a yield of not less than zero through May 1, 2023. There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will maintain such a yield. Unified Fees waived or expenses reimbursed are subject to possible recoupment by the Investment Adviser, as applicable, within three years subject to certain restrictions. In no event will the amount of the recoupment on any day exceed 20% of the

yield (net of all expenses) of the Portfolio on that day. Distribution and shareholder servicing fees waived are not subject to recoupment. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Distributor waived $893,537 of class specific distribution and shareholder servicing fees and the Investment Adviser waived $405,964 of Unified Fees and/or certain expenses to assist the Portfolio in maintaining a yield of not less than zero. The class specific waivers were comprised of the following amounts:

Fee
  Shareholder
Servicing
Fee
Class S
  $     $ 269,690  
Class S2
    235,859       387,988  

Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board. Please note that these waivers or reimbursements are in addition to existing contractual expense limitations, if any. As of year the amounts of waived and/or reimbursed fees that are subject to possible recoupment by the Investment Adviser, and the related expiration dates, are as follows:

  December 31,

The Investment Adviser may direct the Portfolios’ sub-advisers to use their best efforts (subject to obtaining best execution of each transaction) to allocate a Portfolio’s equity security transactions through certain designated


43


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 6 — OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES (continued)

broker-dealers. The designated broker-dealer, in turn, will reimburse a portion of the brokerage commissions to pay certain expenses of that Portfolio. Any amounts credited to the Portfolios are reflected as brokerage commission recapture on the accompanying Statements of Operations.

The Portfolios have adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “DC Plan”), which allows eligible independent trustees, as described in the DC Plan, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the trustees’ fees that they are entitled to receive from the Portfolios. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the trustee under the DC Plan, the amounts deferred are invested in shares of the funds selected by the trustee (the “Notional Funds”). When the Portfolios purchase shares of the Notional Funds, which are all advised by Voya Investments, in amounts equal to the trustees’ deferred fees, this results in a Portfolio asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets, if applicable, are included as a component of “Other assets” on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the DC Plan will not affect net assets of the Portfolios, and will not materially affect the Portfolios’ assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the DC Plan.

CBRE Global Real Estate may pay per account fees to affiliates of Voya Investments for recordkeeping services provided on certain assets. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the per account fees for affiliated recordkeeping services paid by the Portfolio were as follows:

Portfolio   Amount
CBRE Global Real Estate
  $ 229,254  

NOTE 7 — EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENTS

The Investment Adviser has entered into a written expense limitation agreement (“Expense Limitation Agreement”) with the below Portfolio, whereby the Investment Adviser has agreed to limit expenses, excluding interest, taxes, investment-related costs, leverage expenses, extraordinary expenses, and acquired fund fees and expenses to the levels listed below:

Portfolio   Class ADV   Class I   Class S   Class S2
CBRE Global Real Estate
    1.50     0.90     1.15     1.30

With the exception of the non-recoupable management fee waivers for certain Portfolios, the Investment Adviser may, at a later date, recoup from a Portfolio for fees waived and/or other expenses reimbursed by the Investment Adviser during the previous 36 months, but only if, after such recoupment, a Portfolio’s expense ratio does not exceed the percentage described above. Waived and reimbursed fees net of any recoupment by the Investment Adviser of such waived and reimbursed fees are reflected on the

accompanying Statements of Operations. Amounts payable by the Investment Adviser are reflected on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

As of December 31, 2022, the amounts of waived and/or reimbursed fees that are subject to possible recoupment by the Investment Adviser and the related expiration dates are as follows:

  December 31,
  2023   2024   2025   Total
CBRE Global Real Estate
  $ 332,373     $ 342,083     $ 338,144     $ 1,012,600  

The Expense Limitation Agreement is contractual through May 1, 2023, and shall renew automatically for one-year terms. Termination or modification of these obligations requires approval by the Board.

NOTE 8 — LINE OF CREDIT

Effective June 13, 2022, the Portfolios, in addition to certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser, entered into a 364-day unsecured committed revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”) for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 through June 12, 2023. The proceeds may be used only to finance temporarily: (1) the purchase or sale of investment securities; or (2) the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Portfolio or certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser. The funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount payable quarterly in arrears. Prior to June 13, 2022, the predecessor line of credit was for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 and the funds to which the line of credit was available paid a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount through June 13, 2022.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the federal funds rate plus a specified margin. Repayments generally must be made within 60 days after the date of a revolving credit advance.

The below Portfolios utilized the line of credit during the year ended December 31, 2022 as follows:

NOTE 10 — SECURITIES LENDING

Under a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the “Agreement”) with BNY, the Portfolios can lend their securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. government securities. The collateral is equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at Market Close of the Portfolios at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded and any additional collateral is delivered to the Portfolios on the next business day. The cash collateral received is invested in approved investments as defined in the Agreement with BNY. The Portfolios bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral with the following exception: BNY provides the Portfolios indemnification from loss with respect to the investment of collateral to the extent the cash collateral is invested in overnight repurchase agreements.

Cash collateral received in connection with securities lending is invested in cash equivalents, money market funds, repurchase agreements with maturities of not more than 99 days that are collateralized with U.S. Government

securities, or certain short-term investments that have a remaining maturity of 190 days or less (“Permitted Investments”). Short-term investments include: securities, units, shares or other participations in short-term investment funds, pools or trusts; commercial paper, notes, bonds or other debt obligations, certificates of deposit, time deposits and other bank obligations and asset-backed commercial paper backed by diversified receivables and repurchase-backed programs. Permitted Investments are subject to certain guidelines established by the Adviser regarding liquidity, diversification, credit quality and average credit life/duration requirements. The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Portfolio of Investments under Short-Term Investments.

Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolios have the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security; however, there would be a potential loss to the Portfolios in the event the Portfolios are delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a portfolio.

NOTE 11 — UNFUNDED LOAN COMMITMENTS

Certain Portfolios may enter in credit agreements, all or a portion of which may be unfunded. The Portfolios are obligated to fund these loan commitments at the borrower’s discretion. Funded portions of the credit agreements are presented in the Portfolio of Investments. At December 31, 2022, T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation had the following unfunded loan commitments:

Loan   Unfunded Loan

  The unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on these commitments as of December 31, 2022 is included in the Investments in securities at fair value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.


NOTE 12 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES NOTE

The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of foreign currency transactions, income from passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), capital loss carryforwards, wash sale deferrals and de minimis distributions in excess of net investment income.

The Portfolios’ major tax jurisdictions are U.S. federal, Arizona state, and Massachusetts state.

As of December 31, 2022, no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolios’ financial statements as a result of tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for open tax years. The Portfolios’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue. Generally, the preceding four tax years remain subject to examination by these jurisdictions.

NOTE 13 — LONDON INTERBANK OFFERED RATE (“LIBOR”)

In 2017, the UK Financial Conduct Authority announced its intention to cease compelling banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR after 2021. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of LIBOR, stated that non-U.S. dollar LIBOR reference rates and the one-week and two-month LIBOR reference rates ceased to be provided or no longer be

representative immediately after December 31, 2021 and the remaining more commonly used LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after June 30, 2023. In addition, global regulators have announced that, with limited exceptions, no new LIBOR-based contracts should be entered into after 2021. Actions by regulators have resulted in the establishment of alternative reference rates to LIBOR in most major currencies (e.g., the Secured Overnight

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 13 — LONDON INTERBANK OFFERED RATE (“LIBOR”) (continued)

Financing Rate for U.S. Dollar LIBOR and the Sterling Overnight Interbank Average Rate for Sterling LIBOR).

Discontinuance of LIBOR and adoption/implementation of alternative rates pose a number of risks, including among others whether any substitute rate will experience the market participation and liquidity necessary to provide a workable substitute for LIBOR; the effect on parties’ existing contractual arrangements, hedging transactions, and investment strategies generally from a conversion from LIBOR to alternative rates; the effect on a Portfolio’s existing investments (including, for example, fixed-income investments, senior loans, CLOs and CDOs, and derivatives transactions), including the possibility that some of those investments may terminate or their terms may be adjusted to the disadvantage of a Portfolio; and the risk of general market disruption during the period of the conversion. It is difficult to predict at this time the likely impact of the transition away from LIBOR on a Portfolio.

NOTE 14 — MARKET DISRUPTION

A Portfolio is subject to the risk that geopolitical events will disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets. Due to the increasing interdependence among global economies and markets, conditions in one country, market, or region might adversely impact markets, issuers and/or foreign exchange rates in other countries, including the U.S.. Wars, terrorism, global health crises and pandemics, and other geopolitical events that have led, and in the future may continue to lead, to increased market volatility and may have adverse short- or long-term effects on U.S. and global economies and markets generally. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in significant market volatility, exchange suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, supply chain disruptions, and a substantial economic downturn in economies throughout the world. Natural and environmental disasters and

systemic market dislocations are also highly disruptive to economies and markets. In addition, military action by Russia in Ukraine has, and may continue to, adversely affect global energy and financial markets and therefore could affect the value of a Portfolio’s investments, including beyond a Portfolio’s direct exposure to Russian issuers or nearby geographic regions. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict and could be substantial. Those events as well as other changes in foreign (non-U.S.) and domestic economic, social, and political conditions also could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the Portfolio’s investments. Any of these occurrences could disrupt the operations of a Portfolio and of the Portfolio’s service providers.

NOTE 15 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Dividends: Subsequent to December 31, 2022, the following Portfolio paid dividends from net investment income of:

On January 11, 2023, the Board approved a new non-recoupable side letter expense limit agreement with respect to JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity. Effective January 1, 2023 through May 1, 2024, the new side letter expense limits are 1.81%, 1.21%, 1.46%, and 1.61% for Class ADV, Class I, Class S, and Class S2, respectively.

The Portfolios have evaluated events occurring after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date through the date that the financial statements were issued (“subsequent events”) to determine whether any subsequent events necessitated adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements. Other than the above, no such subsequent events were identified.

  The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

The effect of derivative instruments on the Portfolio’s Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 was as follows:

    Amount of Realized Gain or (Loss) on

    Change in Unrealized Appreciation or (Depreciation)
on Derivatives Recognized in Income
Derivatives not accounted for as hedging instruments   Forward foreign

Foreign exchange contracts
                              $ (145 )

  Other Financial Instruments may include open forward foreign currency contracts, futures, centrally cleared swaps, OTC swaps and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts, futures and centrally cleared swaps are fair valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the instrument. OTC swaps and written options are valued at the fair value of the instrument.
#
  The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

#
  The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

At December 31, 2022, the aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments on a tax basis were:

Cost for federal income tax purposes was $285,109,714.
Net unrealized appreciation consisted of:
                       
Gross Unrealized Appreciation
            $ 70,619,168   
Gross Unrealized Depreciation
               (44,536,244 )  
Net Unrealized Appreciation

#
  The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

At December 31, 2022, the aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments on a tax basis were:

Cost for federal income tax purposes was $250,133,825.
Net unrealized appreciation consisted of:
               
Gross Unrealized Appreciation
    $ 84,305,279   
Gross Unrealized Depreciation
       (15,369,753 )  
Net Unrealized Appreciation
    $ 68,935,526

  Other Financial Instruments may include open forward foreign currency contracts, futures, centrally cleared swaps, OTC swaps and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts, futures and centrally cleared swaps are fair valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the instrument. OTC swaps and written options are valued at the fair value of the instrument.
#
  The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

  The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

None of the Portfolio’s income was derived from ineligible foreign sources as defined under Section 901(j) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Foreign taxes paid or withheld must be included in taxable income with an offsetting deduction from gross income or as a credit for taxes paid to foreign governments. Shareholders are strongly advised to consult their own tax advisors regarding the appropriate treatment of foreign taxes paid.

Above figures may differ from those cited elsewhere in this report due to differences in the calculation of income and gains under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (book) purposes and Internal Revenue Service (tax) purposes.

Shareholders are strongly advised to consult their own tax advisers with respect to the tax consequences of their investments in the Portfolios. In January, shareholders, excluding corporate shareholders, receive an IRS 1099-DIV regarding the federal tax status of the dividends and distributions they received in the calendar year.

  Trustees serve until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The tenure of each Trustee who is not an “interested person” as defined in the 1940 Act, of each Portfolio (“Independent Trustee”) is subject to the Board’s retirement policy which states that each duly elected or appointed Independent Trustee shall retire from and cease to be a member of the Board of Trustees at the close of business on December 31 of the calendar year in which the Independent Trustee attains the age of 75. A majority vote of the Board’s other Independent Trustees may extend the retirement date of an Independent Trustee if the retirement would trigger a requirement to hold a meeting of shareholders of the Trust under applicable law, whether for the purposes of appointing a successor to the Independent Trustee or otherwise comply under applicable law, in which case the extension would apply until such time as the shareholder meeting can be held or is no longer required (as determined by a vote of a majority of the other Independent Trustees).

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED)

BOARD CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CONTRACT AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT

At a meeting held on November 17, 2022, the Board of Trustees (“Board”) of Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”), including a majority of the Board members who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment management, sub-advisory and sub-sub-advisory contracts, and who are not “interested persons” of Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio, VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio (formerly, VY® Clarion Global Real Estate Portfolio), VY® Invesco Growth and Income Portfolio, VY® JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio, VY® Morgan Stanley Global Franchise Portfolio, VY® T. Rowe Price Capital Appreciation Portfolio, and VY® T. Rowe Price Equity Income Portfolio, each a series of the Trust (the “Portfolios”), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the renewal for an additional one year period ending November 30, 2023 of (1) the investment management contracts (the “Management Contracts”) between Voya Investments, LLC (the “Manager”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Portfolios, (2) the sub-advisory contracts (the “Sub-Advisory Contracts”) with Voya Investment Management Co. LLC, CBRE Investment Management Listed Real Assets LLC (formerly, CBRE Clarion Securities LLC), Invesco Advisers, Inc., J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc., and T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (“TRPA”), the respective sub-advisers to each Portfolio (the “Sub-Advisers”), and (3) the sub-sub-advisory contract (the “Sub-Sub-Advisory Contract” and together with the Management Contracts and the Sub-Advisory Contracts, the “Contracts”) with Morgan Stanley Investment Management Limited, the sub-sub-adviser to VY® Morgan Stanley Global Franchise Portfolio (the “Sub-Sub-Adviser”).

In addition to the Board meeting on November 17, 2022, the Independent Trustees also held meetings outside the presence of representatives of the Manager, Sub-Advisers, or Sub-Sub-Adviser (collectively, such persons are referred to herein as “management”) on October 12-13, 2022, and November 15, 2022. At those meetings, the Board members reviewed and considered materials related to the proposed continuance of the Contracts that they had requested and believed to be relevant to the renewal of the Contracts in light of their own business judgment and the legal advice furnished to them by K&L Gates LLP, their independent legal counsel. The Board also considered information furnished to it throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees, including information regarding performance, expenses, and other relevant matters. While the Board considered the renewal of the management contracts, sub-advisory contracts and sub-sub-advisory contracts for all of

the applicable investment companies in the Voya family of funds at the same meetings, the Board considered each Voya fund’s investment management, sub-advisory and sub-sub-advisory relationships separately.

The Board has established a Contracts Committee and two Investment Review Committees (the “IRCs”), each of which includes only Independent Trustees as members. The Contracts Committee meets several times throughout the year to provide oversight with respect to the management, sub-advisory and sub-sub-advisory contracts approval and renewal process for the Voya funds, among other functions, and each IRC meets several times throughout the year with respect to each Voya fund (assigned to that IRC) to provide oversight regarding the investment performance of the sub-advisers and sub-sub advisers, as well as the Manager’s role in monitoring the sub-advisers and sub-sub advisers.

The Contracts Committee oversees, and annually recommends Board approval of updates to, a methodology guide for the Voya funds (“Methodology Guide”), which sets out a framework pursuant to which the Independent Trustees request, and management provides, certain information that the Independent Trustees deem to be important or potentially relevant to the contracts renewal process for the Voya funds. The Independent Trustees retain the services of an independent consultant with experience in the mutual fund industry to assist the Contracts Committee in developing and recommending to the Board: (1) a selected peer group of investment companies for each Portfolio (“Selected Peer Group”) based on that Portfolio’s particular attributes, such as fund type and size, fund category (as determined by Morningstar, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data (“Morningstar”)), sales channels and structure and the Portfolio share class being compared to the Selected Peer Group; and (2) updates to the Methodology Guide with respect to the content and format of various data prepared in connection with the renewal process, including, but not limited to, investment performance, fee structure, and expense information. In addition, the Independent Trustees periodically have retained an independent firm to test and verify the accuracy of certain information presented to the Board for a representative sample of the Voya funds.

The Manager, a Sub-Adviser, or the Sub-Sub-Adviser may not have been able to, or opted not to, provide information in response to certain information requests, in which case the Board conducted its evaluation based on the information that was provided. In such cases, the Board determined that the omission of any such information was not material to its considerations. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which


84


ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

information was requested in conducting its evaluation of the Manager, a Sub-Adviser, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser.

Provided below is an overview of certain material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding the renewal of the Contracts and the compensation to be paid thereunder. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was most relevant to its consideration.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Manager oversees, subject to the authority of the Board, and is responsible for the provision of, all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Portfolios, but may delegate certain of these responsibilities to one or more sub-advisers and their sub-sub-advisers. In addition, the Manager provides administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Portfolios as set forth in the Management Contracts, including oversight of the Portfolios’ operations and risk management and the oversight of their various other service providers.

The Board considered the “manager-of-managers” structure of the Voya funds that has been developed by the Manager pursuant to which the Manager selects, subject to the Board’s approval, sub-advisers and their sub-sub-advisers, if any, to provide day-to-day management services to all or a portion of each Voya fund. The Board recognized that the Manager is responsible for monitoring the Sub-Advisers’ and the Sub-Sub-Adviser’s investment program, performance, developments, ongoing operations, and compliance with applicable regulations and investment policies and restrictions with respect to the Portfolios under this manager-of-managers arrangement. The Board also considered the techniques and resources that the Manager has developed to provide this ongoing due diligence and oversight with respect to the sub-advisers and the sub-sub-adviser and to recommend appropriate changes in investment strategies, sub-advisers, sub-sub-adviser, or allocation among sub-advisers in an effort to improve a Voya fund’s performance. In connection with the Manager’s performance of these duties, the Board considered that the Manager has developed an oversight process formulated by its Manager Research & Selection Group that reviews, among other matters, performance data, each Sub-Adviser’s and the Sub-Sub-Adviser’s management team, portfolio data and attribution analysis related to each Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Sub-Adviser through various means, including, but not limited to, in-person meetings, on-site or virtual visits, and telephonic meetings with each Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Sub-Adviser.

Further, the Board considered periodic compliance reports it receives from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer

evaluating, among other related matters, whether the regulatory compliance systems and procedures of the Manager, the Sub-Advisers, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the federal securities laws and whether the investment policies and restrictions for each Portfolio are complied with on a consistent basis.

The Board considered the portfolio management team assigned by the Sub-Advisers and the Sub-Sub-Adviser to the Portfolios and the level of resources committed to the Portfolios (and other relevant funds in the Voya funds) by the Manager, Sub-Advisers, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser, and whether those resources are sufficient to provide high-quality services to the Portfolios.

Based on their deliberations and the materials presented to them, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the overall services provided by the Manager, each Sub-Adviser, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser under the Contracts were appropriate.

Portfolio Performance

In assessing the investment management, sub-advisory, and sub-sub-advisory relationships, the Board placed emphasis on the investment returns of each Portfolio, including its investment performance over certain time periods compared to the Portfolio’s Morningstar category and primary benchmark, a broad-based securities market index identified in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Board also considered information from the Manager Research & Selection Group and received reports summarizing a separate analysis of each Portfolio’s performance and risk, including risk-adjusted investment return information, from the Trust’s Chief Investment Risk Officer.

Economies of Scale

When evaluating the reasonableness of the management fee schedules, the Board considered whether economies of scale have been or likely will be realized by the Manager, the Sub-Advisers, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser as a Portfolio grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are shared with the Portfolio. In this regard, the Board noted any breakpoints in the management fee schedules that will result in a lower management fee rate when a Portfolio achieves sufficient asset levels to receive a breakpoint discount. The Board also considered that, while some of the Portfolios do not have management fee breakpoints, they may have fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale realized by the Manager, Sub-Advisers or the Sub-Sub Adviser could be shared with each Portfolio through such fee waivers, expense reimbursements or other expense reductions. In evaluating these matters, the Board also considered periodic management reports, Selected Peer Group comparisons, and industry


85


ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

information regarding economies of scale. In the case of sub-advisory and sub-sub advisory fees, the Board considered that breakpoints, if any, would inure to the benefit of the Manager and the relevant Sub-Adviser, respectively.

Information Regarding Services, Performance, and Fee Schedules Offered to Other Clients

The Board considered comparative information regarding the nature of services, performance, and fee schedules offered by the Manager, Sub-Advisers, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser to other clients with similar investment objectives, if applicable, including other registered investment companies and relevant institutional accounts. When the fee schedules offered to or the performance of such other clients differed materially from a Portfolio, the Board took into account the underlying rationale provided by the Manager, Sub-Advisers, or the Sub-Sub-Adviser, as applicable, for these differences. For the non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers and Sub-Sub-Adviser, the Board viewed the information related to any material differences in the fee schedules as not being a key factor in its deliberations because of the arm’s-length nature of negotiations between the Manager and non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers and Sub-Sub-Adviser with respect to sub-advisory and sub-sub-advisory fee schedules, that the Manager is responsible for paying the fees of the Sub-Advisers and that the applicable Sub-Adviser is responsible for paying the fees of the Sub-Sub-Adviser.

Fee Schedules, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits

The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee schedule and net management fee rate payable by each Portfolio to the Manager compared to the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group and which additional services the Manager pays for on behalf of certain of those Portfolios under the “bundled fee” arrangement in return for a single management fee (“Unified Fee Structure”). The Board also considered the compensation payable by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services for each Portfolio, including the portion of the contractual and net management fee rates that are paid to each Sub-Adviser, as compared to the compensation paid to the Manager, and the contractual sub-sub-advisory fee schedule payable to the Sub-Sub-Adviser by the relevant Sub-Adviser. In this regard, the Board considered that the Sub-Sub-Adviser is compensated by its relevant Sub-Adviser and not the Manager. In addition, the Board considered any fee waivers, expense limitations, and/or recoupment arrangements that apply to the fees payable by the Portfolios, including whether the Manager intends to propose any changes thereto. For each Portfolio, the Board separately determined that the fees payable to the Manager and the fee schedule payable to each Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Sub-Adviser are reasonable for the

services that each performs, which were considered in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services that each has performed and is expected to perform.

For each Portfolio, the Board considered information on revenues, costs and profits or losses realized by the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser related to their services to the Portfolio. In analyzing the profitability of the Manager and its affiliates in connection with services they render to a Portfolio, the Board took into account the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered the profitability of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser attributable to servicing each Portfolio both with and without taking into account the profitability of the distributor of the Portfolios and any revenue sharing payments made by the Manager. The Board did not request profitability data from Sub-Advisers and the Sub-Sub-Adviser that are not affiliated with the Manager because the Board did not view this data as a key factor to its deliberations given the arm’s-length nature of the relationship between the Manager and these non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers and Sub-Sub-Adviser with respect to the negotiation of sub-advisory and sub-sub-advisory fee schedules. In addition, the Board noted that non-Voya-affiliated sub-advisers and sub-sub-advisers may not account for their profits on an account-by-account basis and those that do often employ different methodologies in connection with these calculations.

Although the Methodology Guide establishes a framework for profit calculation, the Board recognized that there is no uniform methodology within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose. The Board also recognized that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to dramatically different reported profit and loss results with respect to the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser, as well as other industry participants with whom the profits of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser could be compared. In addition, the Board recognized that management’s calculations regarding its costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the Portfolios’ operations may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to each Portfolio in determining profitability. The Board also recognized that the information presented may not portray all of the costs borne by the Manager or reflect all of the risks associated with offering and managing a mutual fund complex in the current regulatory and market environment, including entrepreneurial, regulatory, legal and operational risks.

The Board also considered that the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser are entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that they provide to the Portfolios. The Board also considered information regarding the potential fall-out benefits to the Manager,


86


ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

Sub-Advisers, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser and their respective affiliates from their association with the Portfolios, including their ability to engage in soft-dollar transactions on behalf of the Portfolios. Following its reviews, the Board determined that the Manager’s and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser’s profitability with respect to their services to the Portfolios and the Manager’s, Sub-Advisers’, and Sub-Sub-Adviser’s potential fall-out benefits were not unreasonable.

Portfolio-by-Portfolio Analysis

Set forth below are certain of the specific factors that the Board considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings in relation to approving each Portfolio’s Contracts and the conclusions reached by the Board. These specific factors are in addition to those considerations discussed above. In each case, the Portfolio’s performance was compared to its Morningstar category, as well as its primary benchmark. The performance data provided to the Board primarily was for various periods ended March 31, 2022. In addition, the Board also considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings certain additional data regarding each Portfolio’s more recent performance, asset levels and asset flows. Each Portfolio’s management fee rate and expense ratio were compared to the management fee rates and expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. With respect to the quintile rankings noted below, the first quintile represents the range of funds with the highest performance or the lowest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable, and the fifth quintile represents the range of funds with the lowest performance or the highest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable.

Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio outperformed its Morningstar category average for the one-year period, underperformed for the five-year and ten-year periods, and its performance was equal to the performance of its Morningstar category average for the year-to-date and three-year periods; and (2) the Portfolio outperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented, with the exception of the year-to-date and one-year periods, during which it underperformed.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the economies of scale benefits to the Portfolio and its shareholders from breakpoint discounts applicable to the Portfolio’s management fee rate, which result in lower fees at higher

asset levels; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the net expense ratio for the Portfolio is ranked in the second quintile of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account the expense borne by the Manager for the provision of services to the Portfolio, such as transfer agency, custody, accounting, and legal services, pursuant to the Portfolio’s Unified Fee Structure.

VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio (formerly, VY® Clarion Global Real Estate Portfolio), the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of its Morningstar category for the one-year and three-year periods, the second quintile for the five-year and ten-year periods, and the fifth quintile for the year-to-date period; and (2) the Portfolio outperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented, with the exception of the year-to-date period, during which it underperformed.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a breakpoint fee schedule where the asset level necessary to achieve a breakpoint discount had not been reached by the Portfolio; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fourth quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the net expense ratio for the Portfolio is ranked in the third quintile of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account the competitiveness of the Portfolio’s management fee rate and net expense ratio.

VY® Invesco Growth and Income Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for VY® Invesco Growth and Income Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the second quintile of its Morningstar category for the year-to-date, one-year, three-year and ten-year periods, and the fourth quintile for the five-year period; and (2) the Portfolio outperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented. In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the economies of scale benefits to the Portfolio and its shareholders from breakpoint discounts applicable to the Portfolio’s management fee rate, which result in lower fees at higher asset levels; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the second quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the second quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the net expense ratio for the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account the expense borne by the Manager for the provision of services to the Portfolio, such as transfer agency, custody, accounting, and legal services, pursuant to the Portfolio’s Unified Fee Structure.

VY® JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for VY® JPMorgan Emerging Markets Equity Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of its Morningstar category for the five-year period, the second quintile for the ten-year period, the third quintile for the three-year period, and the fifth quintile for the year-to-date and one-year periods; and (2) the Portfolio underperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented, with the exception of the five-year and ten-year periods, during which it outperformed. In analyzing this performance data, the Board took into account management’s representations regarding: (1) the impact of sector allocation on the Portfolio’s performance; and (2) the competitiveness of the Portfolio’s performance during certain periods.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a level

fee rate that does not include breakpoints; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the net expense ratio for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account management’s representations regarding: (1) the expense borne by the Manager for the provision of services to the Portfolio, such as transfer agency, custody, accounting, and legal services, pursuant to the Portfolio’s Unified Fee Structure; (2) that, as a result of the Board’s request during the 2022 annual contract renewal cycle, lower fee rates and expense limits were implemented, effective January 1, 2023; and (3) its belief that the Portfolio’s pricing is reasonable.

VY® Morgan Stanley Global Franchise Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for VY® Morgan Stanley Global Franchise Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of its Morningstar category for the five-year and ten-year periods, the second quintile for the one-year period, the third quintile for the three-year period, and the fifth quintile for the year-to-date period; and (2) the Portfolio underperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented, with the exception of the five-year and ten-year periods, during which it outperformed.

Voya Balanced Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to maximize income while maintaining prospects for capital appreciation. The Portfolio is managed by Paul Zemsky, CFA, Brian Timberlake, Ph.D., CFA, Vincent Costa, CFA, and Leigh Todd, CFA, Portfolio Managers* of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“VIM”). — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -13.97% compared to the 60% Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index/ 30% Russell 1000® Index/10% MSCI EAFE® Index, the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (“Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond”), the MSCI EAFE® Index (“MSCI EAFE®”), and the Russell 1000® Index which returned -14.72%, -13.01%, -14.45%, and -19.13%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio started the year overweight to equities relative to fixed income.
As part of its annual review process at the end of April, the Portfolio made modest adjustments to its strategic asset allocation based on our updated long-term capital market assumptions. The update resulted in increasing the Portfolio’s US large cap growth positioning and decreasing US large cap value for a neutral weighting between the asset classes. Also, we increased the international equity allocation.

During the year, tactical moves relative to the strategic benchmark had negative impacts across the Portfolio.
The Portfolio is comprised of four strategies in weights matching that of the asset class — Voya Strategic Income Opportunities for fixed income exposure, Voya U.S. High Dividend Low Volatility and Voya Large Cap Growth for domestic equity exposures and International High Dividend Low Volatility for international equity exposures. The underlying sleeves contributed to performance during the year, with all but the Voya Large Cap Growth providing positive excess returns.
Current Strategy and Outlook: The Portfolio maintains its conservative, risk-adjusted return profile with investments split between 59% fixed income and 41% equities.

Voya High Yield Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to provide investors with a high level of current income and total return. The Portfolio is managed by Rick Cumberledge, CFA, and Randall Parrish, CFA, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -12.52% compared to the Bloomberg High Yield Bond — 2% Issuer Constrained Composite Index (the “Index”), which returned -11.18% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio underperformed the Index for the year. From a sector perspective, underperformance was driven by the Media and Entertainment sector. Security selection within the sector detracted from performance as radio broadcasting issuers in the Portfolio sold off on increased concern over advertising spending. The wirelines sector also detracted from performance. While our underweight view added to performance, this was offset by security selection. Relative to contributors, the retail sector added to performance. This positive contribution was driven by security selection as we held issuers that rallied on the increasingly positive economic outlook. The wireless sector also contributed positively to performance as both security selection and our underweight position added to performance.
Current Strategy and Outlook: While the near-term possibility of a US recession remains, we currently do not anticipate that economic growth will slow dramatically. This is in part due to our view on the absence of significant imbalances in the corporate sector. Corporate balance sheets are generally in a solid position and should be able to absorb cooling in the near term.

Going forward, eyes remain on the US Federal Reserve. In the United States, easing inflation pressures should allow the Fed to halt the rapid rate rise, but we do not expect rate cuts until labor markets rebalance. We believe a scenario where the Fed successfully tames inflation without triggering too much of an economic slowdown would be very favorable for the asset class. Conversely, a recessionary environment would be difficult for the more leveraged credits in the high yield market. As the current environment stands, the market is pricing in a mild recession. Relative to positioning, market dynamics and sector views continue to evolve, and as always, our focus will be on security selection and finding pockets of value in an increasingly dispersed market.

Voya Large Cap Growth Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks long-term capital growth. The Portfolio is managed by Kristy Finnegan, CFA, and Leigh Todd, CFA, Portfolio Managers* of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares, provided a total return of -30.66% compared to the Russell 1000® Growth Index, which returned -29.14% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio underperformed the Index during the reporting period due to stock selection effects. A favorable allocation to communication services and stock selection in health care contributed the most to performance. On an individual stock basis, an overweight position in Eli Lilly and Co., not owning Meta Platforms Inc. and our underweight position in Tesla Inc. added the most value. Conversely, stock selection within the information technology sector detracted the most from performance. On an individual stock basis, owning a non-benchmark position in Marvell Technology. Inc., not owning a position in AbbVie, Inc. and our overweight position in Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. had the greatest negative impact.
Current Strategy and Outlook: From a portfolio positioning standpoint, it is very difficult to predict macro direction but we believe we are closer to a bottom given the level of pessimism regarding 2023 expectations as higher costs would not finish flowing through until sometime mid next year. We have started to slowly increase our exposure to more economically

Voya Large Cap Value Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks long-term growth of capital and current income. The Portfolio is managed by Vincent Costa, CFA, James Dorment, CFA, and Gregory Wachsman, CFA, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -3.47% compared to the Russell 1000® Value Index (the “Index” or “Russell 1000® Value”), which returned -7.54% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: For the year to date period ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio outperformed the Index, primarily due to strong security selection. On the sector level, stock selection within the industrials and, to a lesser degree, health care and information technology sectors had the largest positive impact on performance. Key contributors included overweight positions in ConocoPhillips and McKesson Corp., as well as owning a non-benchmark position in BP p.l.c Sponsored ADR.
By contrast, the consumer discretionary and energy sectors had the largest negative impact on performance. At the individual stock level, the biggest detractors included not owning Exxon Mobil Corp., an overweight position in Caesars Entertainment Inc. and owning a non-benchmark position in Expedia Group, Inc.
Current Strategy and Outlook: From a portfolio positioning standpoint, we have continued to lean more into cyclical stocks

Voya Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks highest current income consistent with low risk to principal and liquidity. As a secondary objective, the Portfolio seeks to enhance its total return through capital appreciation when market factors, such as falling interest rates and rising bond prices, indicate that capital appreciation may be available without significant risk to principal. The Portfolio is managed by David Goodson, Randall Parrish, CFA, Matthew Toms, CFA, and Sean Banai, CFA, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -4.94% compared to the Bloomberg U.S. 1-3 Year Government/Credit Bond Index, which returned -3.69% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Sector allocation detracted most for the reporting period. The largest detraction came from commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), as this sector was pricing in a recessionary scenario amid higher rates. Non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) also detracted modestly. Investment grade (“IG”) corporates modestly contributed, as well as asset-backed securities (“ABS”). Security selection did not meaningfully contribute. Duration and yield curve positioning detracted from results as rates continued to move higher amid mixed data prints and hawkish US Federal Reserve (“Fed”) messaging.
Futures were used in conjunction with cash bonds for duration and yield curve management. These investment decisions in total (derivative instruments and cash securities) detracted from performance over the reporting period.
Current Strategy and Outlook: In the United States, easing inflation pressures should allow the Fed to halt the rapid rate rise, but we do not expect rate cuts until labor markets rebalance. We believe the cumulative effects of central bank tightening, disruption in

the energy supply and the fading impact of Covid stimulus will push global growth below potential and threaten recession in several key economies — particularly in the Eurozone. While, in our view, the probability of a US recession is high, we do not anticipate that economic growth will drop suddenly. This is in part because we do not see significant imbalances in either the corporate or consumer segments. Corporate balance sheets are merely cooling from their very strong positions, and consumer spending is still supported by excess savings left over from various covid stimulus packages.
If a recession happens, it will be a painful experience for many people. But from an economic perspective, it will be a necessary medicine to ensure the healthy functioning of an economy. A side effect will be higher unemployment, driven by the decrease in demand for labor. But on the flip side, companies have been struggling to recruit skilled talent, which could cause many of them to hold onto workers in a downturn. It is our belief that the persistent shortfall in the labor supply should keep the unemployment rate from going too high, too quickly.
That said, the speed of interest rate hikes has been swift and unrelenting, increasing the strain on the markets. Housing has fallen, crypto is in crisis, and the September rout in the United Kingdom government bond market forced many UK pension plans to offload assets. Cautious of additional imbalances lurking, we remain relatively defensive while we wait for more attractive entry points to increase exposures in the Portfolio.

Voya U.S. Stock Index Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks total return. The Portfolio is managed by Steve Wetter and Kai Yee Wong, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of -18.35% compared to the S&P 500® Index, which returned -18.11% for the same period.

VY® CBRE Real Estate Portfolio* (the “Portfolio”) seeks total return including capital appreciation and current income. The Portfolio is managed* by Joseph P. Smith, CFA, President, and Chief Investment Officer, Jonathan D. Miniman, CFA, and Kenneth S. Weinberg, CFA, Portfolio Managers of CBRE Investment Management Listed Real Assets LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -27.14% compared to the MSCI U.S. REIT® Index, which returned -24.51% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: For 2022, real estate stocks finished down -24.5% as the capital markets battled the headwinds of a sharp rise in inflation, a significant increase in interest rates and the increasing probability of an economic slowdown. In a year of higher interest rates and lower economic growth, underperformance is striking considering that REITs have resilient earnings compared to equities, growing dividends compared to bonds, and the same underlying assets as private real estate. While all property types traded down for the year, underlying fundamentals remained strong. The average earnings growth for the sector averaged slightly over 10% and dividend growth in 2022 was slightly over 20%. Companies in several sector saw material increases in occupancy and were able to raise rents accordingly.
The Portfolio lagged the benchmark during the period as value from sector allocation was more than offset by the negative impact of stock selection. From a stock selection standpoint, holdings in the residential, hotel, office and storage sectors accounted of a majority of the relative underperformance. Meanwhile, stock selection added value in the healthcare and net lease sectors. Sector allocation decisions contributed to relative performance as an overweight to the outperforming hotel sector combined with underweights to the underperforming data center, office and industrial sectors benefited relative performance. An underweight to the outperforming net lease sector detracted from performance during the period.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We believe the underperformance of REITs in 2022 has created an opportunity for investors. At the end of the year, REITs traded at a ~21% discount to estimates of NAV or intrinsic value — estimates that we have already lowered by ~15% to reflect market conditions and the current economic landscape. Historically, when REIT valuations have traded

at material discounts to NAV, investors have benefited from buying the space.
We believe real estate stocks are oversold and are very attractively valued relative to private market real estate. In addition, it is our opinion that real estate stocks offer above-average and growing dividend yields, inflation-protected earnings growth, and a history of outperformance during periods of above-average inflation. We believe investors committing capital to listed real estate at this time have the potential to earn an attractive absolute and relative long-term total return.
We own a well-balanced portfolio of securities that have been screened for their growth prospects in combination with the quality of their business models, assets, balance sheets, and management teams. We are positive on property types, regions, and stocks that offer these qualities at reasonable valuations. We are overweight residential, storage, malls, hotels, and data centers.

VY® JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks capital growth over the long-term. The Portfolio is managed using two investment styles — quantitative and fundamental analysis. The Portfolio is managed in two sleeves — the quantitative sleeve managed by Wonseok Choi, Ph.D., Managing Director, Akash Gupta, CFA, Executive Director, Johnathan Tse, CFA, Executive Director and Phillip D. Hart, CFA, Managing Director, and the fundamental sleeve managed by Daniel J. Percella, CFA, Managing Director and Don San Jose, CFA, Managing Director, Portfolio Managers of J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -17.76% compared to the Russell 2000® Index, which returned -20.44% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The quantitative sleeve outperformed the Russell 2000® Index Index during the year. Stock selection in the systems hardware and consumer cyclical sectors contributed the most towards performance. Alternatively, stock selection in the pharmaceutical and finance sectors detracted.
On the positive side, overweight allocations in Super Micro Computers and Axsome Therapeutics were top individual contributors towards performance. SMCI, the top contributing stock over the period, designs, develops, manufactures and sells server solutions based on modular and open-standard architecture. An overweight in SMCI buoyed results after reporting Q1 earnings which exceeded expectations and provided a strong outlook. Sales jumped 79% Y/Y, above the company’s guidance range of $1.52B to $1.62B, with a growth rate about 10 times greater than the overall industry average. The company was also added to the S&P MidCap 400 Index effective late December.
On the negative side, overweight allocations in Fate Therapeutics (“FATE”) and Fluence Energy (“FLNC”) were the top individual detractors from results. FATE researches and develops therapies to repair and regenerate body tissues with the help of stem cells. Most recently, shares fell after the company announced preclinical data with its partner GT Biopharma to

highlight the potential of a new therapeutic approach to treat acute myeloid leukemia. The news was underwhelming to the market and subsequently led to two downgrades with one firm noting there is a need for clinical validation to differentiate the approach in a market with plenty of indications where currently available treatments have set the bar high.
From a proprietary attribution standpoint, strong results were driven by the alpha model. From a factor perspective, valuation, momentum and quality all contributed.
The fundamental outperformed the Russell 2000 Index during 2022. In a challenging market environment, the portfolio's structural bias of owning higher quality companies and lower beta profile was rewarded. Much of the outperformance was driven by those companies with more defensive and durable business models. Stock selection within industrials and consumer discretionary contributed the most. Energy was the lone detractor from a sector perspective, where the portfolio has no exposure.
Performance Food Group was the top contributor in 2022 on continued strong execution with guidance raised. The stock’s more defensive nature also benefited in the current market environment. WillScot Mobile Mini also outperformed on strong results throughout the year. Management also provided positive commentary on potential 2023 growth.
Syneos Health was a top detractor after posting a few quarters of disappointing results. Management also lowered guidance. Contract decision delays and some execution missteps contributed to the stock's leg down. Q2 was also a top detractor as the stock was pressured by rising rates and a general flight to safety.

Portfolio Managers’ Report VY® JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity Portfolio
Quantitative sleeve: We continue to focus on fundamentals of the economy and company earnings. Inflation and other uncertainties, such as the tightening liquidity, lingering supply chain constraints and economic impacts of the war in Ukraine, will be integral to investor sentiment moving forward.
While the economy teeters on the edge of recession, we remain balanced and continue to monitor incremental risks that could represent headwinds for U.S. equities. Through the volatility, we continue to focus on high conviction stocks and take advantage of market dislocations for compelling stock selection opportunities.
Fundamental sleeve: We seek to own high-quality businesses, run by management teams with a proven track record of creating shareholder value, at attractive valuations. The team continues to take profits on defensives and cyclicals which have been relative outperformers. Proceeds have been allocated to positions that have underperformed. This includes select areas of technology, banks, real estate, and industrial cyclicals. Industrials and consumer discretionary are top overweights. Energy and health care are top underweights. The health care underweight has narrowed meaningfully driven by portfolio outperformance. The opportunity within small caps remains — absolute and relative valuations remain near historic lows for the Russell 2000 Index.
The views expressed in this commentary are informed opinions. They should not be considered promises or advice. The views expressed reflect those of the portfolio managers, only through the end of the period as stated on the cover. The portfolio managers’ views are subject to change at any time based on market and other conditions.
Portfolio holdings and characteristics are subject to change and may not be representative of current holdings and characteristics. Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily. The outlook for this Portfolio may differ from that presented for other Voya mutual funds. This report contains statements that may be “forward-looking” statements. Actual results may differ materially from those projected in the “forward-looking” statements. The Portfolio’s performance returns shown reflect applicable fee waivers and/or expense limits in effect during this period. Absent such fee waivers/expense limitations, if any, performance would have been lower. Performance for the different classes of shares will vary based on differences in fees associated with each class. An index has no cash in its portfolio and imposes no sales charges. An investor cannot invest directly in an index.

Based on a $10,000 initial investment, the graph and table above illustrate the total return of VY® JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity Portfolio against the index indicated. The index is unmanaged and has no cash in its portfolio and imposes no sales charges. An investor cannot invest directly in an index.
The Portfolio’s performance is shown without the imposition of any expenses or charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy. Total returns would have been lower if such expenses or charges were included.
The performance graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder will pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.
The performance shown includes, if applicable, the effect of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Investment Adviser and/or other service providers, which have the effect of increasing total return. Had all fees and expenses been considered, the total returns would have been lower.
The performance update illustrates performance for a variable investment option available through a variable annuity contract or a variable life insurance policy. The performance shown indicates past performance and is not a projection or prediction of future results. Actual investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that shares and/or units, at redemption, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Please log on to www.voyainvestments.com or call (800) 366-0066 to get performance through the most recent month end.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLES (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Portfolio expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The Portfolios’ expenses are shown without the imposition of any charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract, variable life insurance policy, qualified pension, or retirement plan. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.
Actual Expenses
The left section of the table shown below, “Actual Portfolio Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The right section of the table shown below, “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses),” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Portfolio’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 the ongoing costs of investing in a Portfolio and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Voya Balanced Income Portfolio, Voya High Yield Portfolio, Voya Large Cap Growth Portfolio, Voya Large Cap Value Portfolio, Voya Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio, Voya U.S. Stock Index Portfolio, VY® CBRE Real Estate Portfolio (formerly, VY® Clarion Real Estate Portfolio) and VY® JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity Portfolio and the Board of Trustees of Voya Investors Trust
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Voya Balanced Income Portfolio, Voya High Yield Portfolio, Voya Large Cap Growth Portfolio, Voya Large Cap Value Portfolio, Voya Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio, Voya U.S. Stock Index Portfolio, VY® CBRE Real Estate Portfolio (formerly, VY® Clarion Real Estate Portfolio) and VY® JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity Portfolio (collectively referred to as the “Portfolios”) (eight of the portfolios constituting Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”)), including the portfolios of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Portfolios (eight of the portfolios constituting Voya Investors Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and their financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The financial highlights for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated February 21, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolios’ 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 Trust 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 in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such 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 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers and others, we performed other auditing procedures. 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION
Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act” or the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on August 3, 1988. The Trust consists of twenty-one active separate investment series. The eight series (each a “Portfolio” and collectively the “Portfolios”) included in this report are: Voya Balanced Income Portfolio (“Balanced Income”), Voya High Yield Portfolio (“High Yield”), Voya Large Cap Growth Portfolio (“Large Cap Growth”), Voya Large Cap Value Portfolio (“Large Cap Value”), Voya Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio (“Limited Maturity Bond”), Voya U.S. Stock Index Portfolio (“U.S. Stock Index”), VY® CBRE Real Estate Portfolio (“CBRE Real Estate”), and VY® JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity Portfolio (“JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity”). Prior to May 1, 2022, VY® CBRE Real Estate Portfolio was known as VY® Clarion Real Estate Portfolio. All of the Portfolios are diversified except for Large Cap Growth, which is a non-diversified Portfolio of the Trust. In seeking to track the performance of the index, U.S. Stock Index may become non-diversified as a result of a change in relative market capitalizations or index weightings of one or more components of the index. As a result, whether U.S. Stock Index will be considered diversified or non-diversified at any time will depend largely on the make-up of the index at the time. The investment objective of the Portfolios is described in the respective Portfolio’s Prospectus.
The classes of shares included in this report are: Adviser (“Class ADV”), Institutional (“Class I”), Class P2, Class R6, Service (“Class S”) and Service 2 (“Class S2”); however, each Portfolio may not offer all share classes. With the exception of class specific matters, each class has equal voting rights as to voting privileges. For class specific proposals, only the applicable class would have voting privileges. The classes differ principally in the applicable distribution and shareholder service fees, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses, if any. Generally, shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders are allocated the common expenses of a portfolio and earn income and realized gains/losses from a portfolio pro rata based on the daily ending net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses that are specific to a portfolio or a class are charged directly to that portfolio or class. Other operating expenses shared by several portfolios are generally allocated among those portfolios based on average net assets. Distributions are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocated to each class. Realized gain distributions are allocated to each class pro rata based on
the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder service fees, if any, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses between the separate classes, if any.
Voya Investments, LLC (“Voya Investments” or the “Investment Adviser), an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the Investment Adviser to the Portfolios. Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the sub-adviser to Balanced Income, High Yield, Large Cap Growth, Large Cap Value, Limited Maturity Bond, and U.S. Stock Index. Voya Investments Distributor, LLC (“VID” or the “Distributor”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the principal underwriter to the Portfolios.
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Portfolio is considered an investment company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.
A. Security Valuation. Each Portfolio is open for business every day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) opens for regular trading (each such day, a “Business Day”). The net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of each Portfolio is determined each Business Day as of the close of the regular trading session (“Market Close”), as determined by the Consolidated Tape Association (“CTA”), the central distributor of transaction prices for exchange-traded securities (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time unless otherwise designated by the CTA). The NAV per share of each class of each Portfolio is calculated by taking the value of the Portfolio’s assets attributable to that class, subtracting the Portfolio’s liabilities attributable to that class, and dividing by the number of shares of that class that are outstanding. On days when a Portfolio is closed for business, Portfolio shares will not be priced and a Portfolio does not transact purchase and redemption orders. To the extent a Portfolio’s assets are traded in other markets on days when a Portfolio does not price its shares, the value of a Portfolio’s assets will likely change and you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of a Portfolio.
Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. Investments in open-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day NAV

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
per share. The prospectuses of the open-end registered investment companies in which each Portfolio may invest explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing. Foreign securities’ prices are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of Market Close.
When a market quotation for a portfolio security is not readily available or is deemed unreliable (for example when trading has been halted or there are unexpected market closures or other material events that would suggest that the market quotation is unreliable) and for purposes of determining the value of other Portfolio assets, the asset is priced at its fair value. The Board has designated the Investment Adviser, as the valuation designee, to make fair value determinations in good faith. In determining the fair value of each Portfolio’s assets, the Investment Adviser, pursuant to its fair valuation policy, may consider inputs from pricing service providers, broker-dealers, or each Portfolio’s sub-adviser(s). Issuer specific events, transaction price, position size, nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of an asset’s fair value. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before Market Close, closing market quotations may become unreliable. The prices of foreign securities will generally be adjusted based on inputs from an independent pricing service that are intended to reflect valuation changes through the NYSE close. Because of the inherent uncertainties of fair valuation, the values used to determine each Portfolio’s NAV may materially differ from the value received upon actual sale of those investments. Thus, fair valuation may have an unintended dilutive or accretive effect on the value of shareholders’ investments in each Portfolio.
The Portfolios’ financial instruments are valued at the close of the NYSE and are reported at fair value, which GAAP defines as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Various valuation techniques and inputs are used to determine the fair value of financial instruments. GAAP establishes the following fair value hierarchy that categorizes the inputs used to measure fair value:
Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments that the portfolio can access at the reporting date.
Level 2 — inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in inactive markets, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads).
Level  3 — unobservable inputs (including the portfolio’s own assumptions in determining fair value).
Observable inputs are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, and reflect the assumptions that market participants would use to price the financial instrument. Unobservable inputs are those for which market data are not available and are developed using the best information available about the assumptions that market participants would use to price the financial instrument. GAAP requires valuation techniques to maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. When multiple inputs are used to derive fair value, the financial instrument is assigned to the level within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value of the financial instrument. Input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with financial instruments at that level but rather the degree of judgment used in determining those values.
A table summarizing each Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within each Portfolio of Investments.
Each investment asset or liability of the Portfolios is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” inputs other than quoted prices for an asset or liability that are observable are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the sub-advisers’ or Pricing Committee’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality are generally considered to be Level 2 securities under applicable accounting rules. A table summarizing each Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within the Portfolio of Investments.
GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. A reconciliation of Level 3

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
investments within the Portfolio of Investments is presented only when a Portfolio has a significant amount of Level 3 investments.
B. Securities Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Portfolios. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method. CBRE Real Estate estimates components of distributions from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). Distributions received in excess of income are recorded as a reduction of cost of the related investments. If CBRE Real Estate no longer owns the applicable securities, any distributions received in excess of income are recorded as realized gains.
C. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(1)
Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at Market Close.
(2)
Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at Market Close, the Portfolios do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities, which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding tax reclaims recorded on each Portfolio’s books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid.
Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. The foregoing risks are even greater with respect to securities of issuers in emerging markets.
D. Distributions to Shareholders. The Portfolios record distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly and net capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually by High Yield and Limited Maturity Bond. Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid semi-annually and net capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually by Large Cap Value and U.S. Stock Index. For all other Portfolios, dividends from net investment income and net capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually. The Portfolios may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies.
E. Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of each Portfolio to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, a federal income tax or excise tax provision is not required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Portfolios’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until the capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized.
The Portfolios may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain.
F. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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
41

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
G. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Portfolios’ investment strategies permit the Portfolios to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, a Portfolio will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the level or types of exposure to risk factors. This may allow a Portfolio to pursue its objectives more quickly, and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of affecting a similar response to market or credit factors.
In pursuit of its investment objectives, a Portfolio may seek to increase or decrease its exposure to the following market or credit risk factors:
Credit Risk. The price of a bond or other debt instrument is likely to fall if the issuer’s actual or perceived financial health deteriorates, whether because of broad economic or issuer-specific reasons. In certain cases, the issuer could be late in paying interest or principal, or could fail to pay its financial obligations altogether.
Equity Risk. Stock prices may be volatile or have reduced liquidity in response to real or perceived impacts of factors including, but not limited to, economic conditions, changes in market interest rates, and political events. Stock markets tend to be cyclical, with periods when stock prices generally rise and periods when stock prices generally decline. Any given stock market segment may remain out of favor with investors for a short or long period of time, and stocks as an asset class may underperform bonds or other asset classes during some periods. Additionally, legislative, regulatory or tax policies or developments in these areas may adversely impact the investment techniques available to a manager, add to costs and impair the ability of a Portfolio to achieve its investment objectives.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. To the extent that a Portfolio invests directly in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities denominated in, or that trade in, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, it is subject to the risk that those foreign (non-U.S.) currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged by a Portfolio through foreign currency exchange transactions.
Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. Currency rates may be affected by changes in market interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, by the imposition of currency controls, or other political or economic developments in the United States or abroad.
Interest Rate Risk. With bonds and other fixed rate debt instruments, a rise in market interest rates generally causes values to fall; conversely, values generally rise as market interest rates fall. The higher the credit quality of the instrument, and the longer its maturity or duration, the more sensitive it is likely to be to interest rate risk. As of the date of this report, the United States experiences a rising market interest rate environment, which may increase a Portfolio’s exposure to risks associated with rising market interest rates. Rising market interest rates have unpredictable effects on the markets and may expose fixed-income and related markets to heightened volatility. For a fund that invests in fixed-income securities, an increase in market interest rates may lead to increased redemptions and increased portfolio turnover, which could reduce liquidity for certain investments, adversely affect values, and increase costs. If dealer capacity in fixed-income markets is insufficient for market conditions, it may further inhibit liquidity and increase volatility in the fixed-income markets. Further, recent and potential changes in government policy may affect interest rates.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. A Portfolio’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market or credit risk factors and the overall market. In instances where a Portfolio is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market or credit risk factors for securities held by a Portfolio, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
Derivative instruments are subject to a number of risks, including the risk of changes in the market price of the underlying securities, credit risk with respect to the counterparty, risk of loss due to changes in market interest rates and liquidity and volatility risk. The amounts required to purchase certain derivatives may be small relative to the magnitude of exposure assumed by a Portfolio. Therefore, the purchase of certain derivatives may have an economic leveraging effect on a Portfolio and exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV. Derivatives may not perform as expected, so a Portfolio may not realize the intended benefits. When used for hedging purposes, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the currency, security or other risk being hedged. When used as an alternative or substitute for
42

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
direct cash investments, the return provided by the derivative may not provide the same return as direct cash investment. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose a Portfolio to the risk of improper valuation.
Generally, derivatives are sophisticated financial instruments whose performance is derived, at least in part, from the performance of an underlying asset or assets. Derivatives include, among other things, swap agreements, options, forwards and futures. Investments in derivatives are generally negotiated over-the-counter (“OTC”), with a single counterparty and as a result are subject to credit risks related to the counterparty’s ability or willingness to perform its obligations; any deterioration in the counterparty’s creditworthiness could adversely affect the value of the derivative. In addition, derivatives and their underlying securities may experience periods of illiquidity which could cause a Portfolio to hold a security it might otherwise sell, or to sell a security it otherwise might hold at inopportune times or at an unanticipated price. A manager might imperfectly judge the direction of the market. For instance, if a derivative is used as a hedge to offset investment risk in another security, the hedge might not correlate to the market’s movements and may have unexpected or undesired results such as a loss or a reduction in gains.
Counterparty Credit Risk and Credit Related Contingent Features. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to a Portfolio. Each Portfolio’s derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. A Portfolio intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that it believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. To reduce this risk, a Portfolio has entered into master netting arrangements, established within each Portfolio’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreements (“Master Agreements”). These Master Agreements are with select counterparties and they govern transactions, including certain OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts, entered into by a Portfolio and the counterparty. The Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate all of its contracts and affect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable Master Agreement.
A Portfolio may also enter into collateral agreements with certain counterparties to further mitigate counterparty credit risk on OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts. Subject to established minimum levels, collateral is generally determined based on the net aggregate unrealized gain or loss on contracts with a certain counterparty. Collateral pledged to or from a Portfolio is held in a segregated account by a third-party agent and can be in the form of cash or debt securities issued by the U.S. government or related agencies.
As of December 31, 2022, the maximum amount of loss that Balanced Income would incur if its counterparties failed to perform would be $266,818 which represents the gross payments to be received on open forward foreign currency contracts, OTC purchased options, forward premium swaptions and volatility swaps were they to be unwound as of December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, the Portfolio did not receive any cash collateral for open OTC derivatives.
Certain Portfolios have entered into derivative contracts that contain credit related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivative counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from a Portfolio. Credit related contingent features are established between each Portfolio and its derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that a Portfolio will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in a Portfolio’s net assets and/or a percentage decrease in a Portfolio’s NAV, which could cause a Portfolio to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty. The contingent features are established within each Portfolio’s Master Agreements.
As of December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had a liability position of $2,408,568 on open forward foreign currency contracts, forward premium swaptions and OTC written options. If a contingent feature would have been triggered as of December 31, 2022, the Portfolio could have been required to pay these amounts in cash to its counterparties. At December 31, 2022 Balanced Income pledged $2,210,000 in cash collateral for its open OTC derivative transactions.
H. Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. Certain Portfolios may enter into forward foreign currency contracts primarily to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risks on their non-U.S. dollar denominated investment securities. When entering into a forward currency contract, a Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed future date. These contracts are valued daily and a Portfolio’s net equity therein, representing unrealized gain
43

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
or loss on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date, is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in the Statements of Operations. These instruments involve market and/or credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movement in currency and securities values and interest rates. Open forward foreign currency contracts are presented following the respective Portfolio of Investments.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had average contract amounts on forward foreign currency contracts purchased and sold of $93,008,600 and $93,539,586, respectively. The Portfolio used forward foreign currency contracts primarily to protect any non-U.S. dollar-denominated holdings from adverse currency movements. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for open forward foreign currency contracts at December 31, 2022.
I. Futures Contracts. Each Portfolio may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and security indices. A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future date. Each Portfolio may buy and sell futures contracts. Futures contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when the Portfolio’s assets are valued.
Upon entering into a futures contract, each Portfolio is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Portfolio each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses and, if any, shown as variation margin receivable or payable on futures contracts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Open futures contracts are reported on a table following each Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are footnoted in the Portfolio of Investments. Cash collateral held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in each Portfolio’s
Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is reported in each Portfolio’s Statement of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported in each Portfolio’s Statement of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.
Futures contracts are exposed to the market risk factor of the underlying financial instrument. During the year ended December 31, 2022, U.S. Stock Index and JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity have purchased futures contracts on various equity indexes to “equitize” cash. Futures contracts are purchased to provide immediate market exposure proportionate to the size of the Portfolio’s respective cash flows and residual cash balances in order to decrease potential tracking error if the cash remained uninvested in the market. In addition, Balanced Income and Limited Maturity Bond had purchased and sold futures contracts on treasury futures to manage the duration and yield curve of the Portfolios. Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where each Portfolio is unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of each Portfolio’s securities. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Portfolios since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against counterparty default.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the following Portfolios had average notional values on futures contracts purchased and sold as disclosed below. Please refer to the tables within each respective Portfolio of Investments for open futures contracts at December 31, 2022.
Purchased
Sold
Balanced Income $ 88,101,799 $ 26,087,181
Limited Maturity Bond 120,565,766 20,434,270
U.S. Stock Index 172,174,820
JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity 7,235,782
J. Repurchase Agreements. Each Portfolio may invest in repurchase agreements only with government securities dealers recognized by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Under such agreements, the seller of the security agrees to repurchase it at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The resale price is in excess of the purchase price and reflects an agreed upon interest rate for the period of time the agreement is outstanding. The period of the repurchase agreements is usually short, from overnight to one week, while the underlying securities generally have longer maturities. Each Portfolio will receive as collateral securities acceptable to it whose market value is equal to at least 100% of the carrying amount of the repurchase agreement, plus accrued interest, being
44

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
invested by a Portfolio. The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to assure that the value, including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. If the seller defaults, a Portfolio might incur a loss or delay in the realization of proceeds if the value of the security collateralizing the repurchase agreement declines, and may incur disposition costs in liquidating the collateral.
Repurchase agreements are entered into by the Portfolios under Master Repurchase Agreements (“MRA”) which permit the Portfolios, under certain circumstances, including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset receivables or payables under the MRA with collateral held and/or pledged by the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the respective Portfolio. There were no open repurchase agreements for any Portfolio at December 31, 2022.
K. Securities Lending. Each Portfolio may loan up to 33 13% of its total assets to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender’s fee. Securities lending involves two primary risks: “investment risk” and “borrower default risk.” When lending securities, the Portfolios will receive cash or U.S. government securities as collateral. Investment risk is the risk that the Portfolios will lose money from the investment of the cash collateral received from the borrower. Borrower default risk is the risk that the Portfolios will lose money due to the failure of a borrower to return a borrowed security. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Portfolios. Securities lending may result in leverage. The use of leverage may exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV, causing the Portfolios to be more volatile. The use of leverage may increase expenses and increase the impact of the Portfolios’ other risks.
L. Restricted Securities. The Portfolios may invest in restricted securities, which include those sold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”) or securities offered pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act, and/or are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may not be publicly sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Restricted securities are fair valued using market quotations when readily available. In the absence of market quotations, the securities are valued based upon their fair value determined in good faith under procedures approved by the Board.
Securities that are not registered for sale to the public under the 1933 Act are referred to as “restricted securities.”
These securities may be sold in private placement transactions between issuers and their purchasers and may be neither listed on an exchange nor traded in other established markets. Many times these securities are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. As a result of the absence of a public trading market, the prices of these securities may be more volatile, less liquid and more difficult to value than publicly traded securities. The price realized from the sale of these securities could be less than the amount originally paid or less than their fair value if they are resold in privately negotiated transactions. In addition, these securities may not be subject to disclosure and other investment protection requirements that are afforded to publicly traded securities. Certain investments may include investment in smaller, less seasoned issuers, which may involve greater risk.
M. Delayed-Delivery Transactions. Each Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. The price of the underlying securities and date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The fair value of such securities is identified in each Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments. Losses may arise due to changes in the fair value of the securities or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract. In connection with such purchases, the Portfolios are required to identify liquid assets sufficient to cover the purchase price.
N. Options Contracts. Certain Portfolios may purchase put and call options and may write (sell) put options and covered call options on futures, swaps (“swaptions”), securities, commodities or foreign currencies it owns or in which it may invest. The Portfolios may engage in option transactions as a hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings or to increase market exposure. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded based upon the last sales price on the principal exchange on which the options are traded. An amount equal to the proceeds of the premium received by the Portfolios upon the writing of a put or call option is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and equivalent liability which is subsequently marked-to-market until it is exercised or closed, or it expires. The Portfolios will realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the option contract. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales of the underlying security for a written call option, the purchase cost of the security for a written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on option contracts are reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The risk in writing a covered call option is that the Portfolios give up the
45

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Portfolios may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Portfolios pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Risks may also arise from an illiquid secondary market or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had purchased and written options on exchange-traded funds with a notional value of $26,531,176 and $14,423,909, respectively, to gain additional exposure to the high yield corporate bond market and to generate income. There were no open purchased and written options on exchange-traded funds at December 31, 2022.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had purchased and written foreign currency options with a notional value of $17,511,719 and $8,417,535, respectively, to gain exposure to foreign currencies and to generate income. Please refer to the tables following the Portfolios of Investments for open purchased and written foreign currency options at December 31, 2022.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had written interest rate swaptions to generate income. Balanced Income had an average notional value of $21,571,400. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for open written interest rate swaptions at December 31, 2022.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had purchased and written forward premium swaptions to manage duration and yield curve exposures. Balanced Income had an average notional value of $10,140,667 and $43,182,200, respectively, on purchased and written forward premium swaptions. Please refer to the tables following the Portfolios of Investments for open purchased and written forward premium swaptions at December 31, 2022.
O. Swap Agreements. Certain Portfolios may enter into swap agreements. A swap is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which each party agrees to make one or more payments to the other at specified future intervals based on the return of an asset (such as a stock, bond or currency) or non-asset reference (such as an interest rate or index). Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the OTC market and may be executed in a multilateral or other
trade facility platform, such as a registered commodities exchange (“centrally cleared swaps”).
The swap agreement will specify the “notional” amount of the asset or non-asset reference to which the contract relates. Subsequent changes in fair value, if any, are calculated based upon changes in the performance of the asset or non-asset reference multiplied by the notional value of the contract. A Portfolio may enter into credit default, interest rate, total return and currency swaps to manage its exposure to credit, currency and interest rate risk. All outstanding swap agreements are reported following each Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments.
Swaps are marked to market daily using quotations primarily from third party pricing services, registered commodities exchange(s), counterparties or brokers. The fair value of an OTC swap contract is recorded on each Portfolio’s Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Daily changes in the value of centrally cleared swaps, if any, are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the swap, if any, are recorded as unrealized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations. Upfront payments paid or received on OTC swaps by a Portfolio when entering into the agreements are reported on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and as a component of the changes in unrealized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations. These upfront payments represent the amounts paid or received when initially entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and the prevailing market conditions. The upfront payments are included as a component in the realized gains or losses on each Portfolio’s Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A Portfolio also records net periodic payments paid or received on the swap contract as a realized gain or loss on the Statements of Operations.
In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is novated to a central counterparty (the “CCP”) and the Portfolio’s counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP. The Portfolios are required to interface with the CCP through a broker. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, the Portfolios are required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on the size and risk profile of the particular swap. Securities deposited as initial margin are footnoted as pledged on the Portfolio of Investments and cash deposited is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged for centrally cleared swaps. The daily change in valuation of centrally cleared swaps is recorded as a receivable or
46

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
payable for variation margin in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received from (paid to) the counterparty, including at termination, are recorded as realized gain (loss) on the Statements of Operations.
Entering into swap agreements involves the risk that the maximum potential loss of an investment exceeds the current value of the investment as reported on each Portfolio’s Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Other risks involve the possibility that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform, that there will be no liquid market for these investments and that unfavorable changes in the market will have a negative impact on the value of the index or securities underlying the respective swap agreement.
Credit Default Swap Contracts. A credit default swap is a bilateral agreement between counterparties in which the buyer of the protection agrees to make a stream of periodic payments to the seller of protection in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event for a referenced entity, obligation or index. As a seller of protection on credit default swaps, a Portfolio will generally receive from the buyer a fixed payment stream based on the notional amount of the swap contract. This fixed payment stream will continue until the swap contract expires or a defined credit event occurs.
A Portfolio is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. As a seller of protection in a credit default swap, a Portfolio may execute these contracts to manage its exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market. Certain Portfolios may also enter into credit default swaps to speculate on changes in an issuer’s credit quality, to take advantage of perceived spread advantages, or to offset an existing short equivalent (i.e. buying protection on an equivalent reference entity).
Certain Portfolios may sell credit default swaps which expose these Portfolios to the risk of loss from credit risk-related events specified in the contract. Although contract specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default or repudiation/moratorium. If a Portfolio is a seller of protection, and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will generally either (i) pay to the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations, or underlying securities comprising a referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount
of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising a referenced index. If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. Recovery values are assumed by market makers considering either industry standard recovery rates or entity specific factors and considerations until a credit event occurs. If a credit event has occurred, the recovery value is determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specified valuation method, are used to calculate the settlement value.
Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues are disclosed in each Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities or credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting fair values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing fair values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.
The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreements, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by a Portfolio for the same referenced entity or entities.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income and Limited Maturity Bond had bought and sold credit protection on credit default swap indices (“CDX”) and
47

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
single name issuers (corporate or sovereign). A CDX is a basket of credit instruments or exposures designed to be representative of some part of the credit market as a whole. Balanced Income used CDX swaps to gain additional exposure within various sectors and to hedge the credit risk associated with various sectors within the credit market. In addition, Balanced Income bought credit protection on single name issuers to reduce its risk exposure to defaults of corporate and/or sovereign issuers.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had an average notional amount of $2,652,155 and $4,949,279 on credit default swaps to buy and sell protection, respectively. Limited Maturity Bond had an average notional amount of $2,271,800 on credit default swaps to buy protection only. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for open credit default swaps to buy protection at December 31, 2022 for both Balanced Income and Limited Maturity Bond. There were no open credit default swaps to sell protection at December 31, 2022.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts. An interest rate swap involves the agreement between counterparties to exchange periodic payments based on interest rates. One payment will be based on a floating rate of a specified interest rate while the other will be a fixed rate. Risks involve the future fluctuations of interest rates in which a Portfolio may make payments that are greater than what a Portfolio received from the counterparty. Other risks include credit, liquidity and market risk.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had entered into interest rate swaps in which it pays a floating interest rate and receives a fixed interest rate (“interest rate swap”) in order to decrease exposure to interest rate risk. Average notional amounts on interest rate swaps was $11,827,656.
For the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had entered into interest rate swaps in which it pays a fixed interest rate and receives a floating interest rate (“Short interest rate swap”) in order to decrease exposure to interest rate risk. Average notional amounts on short interest rate swaps was $5,300,702.
Balanced Income entered into interest rate swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures and to substitute for physical fixed-income securities. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for open centrally cleared interest rate swaps at December 31, 2022.
At December 31, 2022, Balanced Income and Limited Maturity Bond had pledged $1,220,000 and $300,000, respectively, in cash collateral for open centrally cleared credit default and interest rate swaps.
Volatility Swap Contracts. Certain Portfolios may enter into volatility swaps. Volatility swaps are agreements in which the counterparties agree to make payments in connection with changes in the volatility (i.e., the magnitude of change over a specified period of time) of an underlying referenced instrument, such as a currency, rate, index, security or other financial instrument. Volatility swaps permit the parties to attempt to hedge volatility risk and/or take positions on the projected future volatility of an underlying referenced instrument. As a receiver of the realized price volatility, a Portfolio would receive the payoff amount when the realized price volatility of the referenced instrument is greater than the strike and would owe the payoff amount when the volatility is less than the strike. As a payer of the realized price volatility, a Portfolio would owe the payoff amount when the realized price volatility of the referenced instrument is greater than the strike and would receive the payoff amount when the volatility is less than the strike.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Balanced Income had an average notional amount of $3,744,200 on foreign currency volatility swaps (receiver). Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for open volatility swaps at December 31, 2022.
P. Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Portfolios and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, management considers the risk of loss from such claims remote.

This Management Agreement compensates the Investment Adviser with a management fee, computed daily and payable monthly, based on the average daily net assets of each Portfolio, at the following annual rates:
Portfolio

The Investment Adviser is contractually obligated to waive 0.010% and 0.067% of the management fee for Large Cap Value and CBRE Real Estate, respectively. Any fees waived or reimbursed are not eligible for recoupment. Termination or modification of these obligations requires approval by the Board.
With the exception of the Portfolios in the table above, the Investment Adviser provides the below Portfolios with advisory and administrative services under a management agreement (the “Unified Agreement”). Under the Unified Agreement, the Investment Adviser has overall responsibility for engaging sub-advisers and for monitoring and evaluating the management of the assets of each Portfolio. Sub-advisers have full investment discretion and make all determinations with respect to the investment of a Portfolio’s assets and the purchase and sale of portfolio
securities and other investments. Pursuant to the Unified Agreement, the Investment Adviser also is responsible for providing or procuring, at the Investment Adviser’s expense, the services reasonably necessary for the ordinary operation of a Portfolio, including, among other things, custodial, administrative, transfer agency, portfolio accounting, auditing, affiliated recordkeeping services, licensing fees and ordinary legal expenses. As compensation for its services under the Unified Agreement, the Trust pays the Investment Adviser a monthly fee (a “Unified Fee”) based on the following annual rates of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio:

The assets of Limited Maturity Bond are aggregated with those of Voya Government Liquid Assets Portfolio, which is not included in this report, to determine the Unified Fee applicable to the Portfolio.
The Investment Adviser has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with each respective sub-adviser. These sub-advisers provide investment advice for certain Portfolios and are paid by the Investment Adviser based on the average daily net assets of the respective Portfolios.

NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES
The Trust has entered into a shareholder service plan (the “Plan”) for each Portfolio that offers Class S and Class S2 shares. The Plan compensates the Distributor for the provision of shareholder services and/or account maintenance services to direct or indirect beneficial owners of Class S and Class S2 shares. Under the Plan, each Portfolio makes payments to the Distributor at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class S and Class S2 shares, respectively. Each Portfolio that offers Class S2 shares has entered into a distribution plan (the “Class S2 Plan”) with the Distributor on behalf of the Class S2 shares of the Portfolio. The Class S2 Plan provides that the Class S2 shares shall pay a distribution fee for distribution services including payments to the Distributor at an annual rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets. The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive 0.01% of the shareholder service fee for Class S shares of U.S. Stock Index. This waiver is not eligible for recoupment. Termination or modification of this waiver requires approval by the Board.
Class ADV shares of the Portfolios have a shareholder service and distribution plan. The respective Portfolios pay the Distributor a service fee of 0.25% and a distribution fee of 0.35% of each Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class ADV shares, except for U.S. Stock Index, which pays a distribution fee of 0.28%.

The Investment Adviser may direct the Portfolios’ sub-advisers to use their best efforts (subject to obtaining best execution of each transaction) to allocate a Portfolio’s equity security transactions through certain designated broker-dealers. The designated broker-dealer, in turn, will reimburse a portion of the brokerage commissions to pay certain expenses of that Portfolio. Any amounts credited to the Portfolios are reflected as brokerage commission recapture on the accompanying Statements of Operations.
The Portfolios have adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “DC Plan”), which allows eligible independent trustees, as described in the DC Plan, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the trustees’ fees that they are entitled to receive from the Portfolios. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the trustee under the DC Plan, the amounts deferred are invested in shares of the funds selected by the trustee (the “Notional Funds”). When the Portfolios purchase shares of the Notional Funds, which are all advised by Voya Investments, in amounts equal to the trustees’ deferred fees, this results in a Portfolio asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets, if applicable, are included as a component of “Other assets” on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the DC Plan will not affect net assets of the Portfolios, and will not materially affect the Portfolios’ assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the DC Plan.
Balanced Income, Large Cap Growth, Large Cap Value and CBRE Real Estate may pay per account fees to affiliates of Voya Investments for recordkeeping services

NOTE 8 — LINE OF CREDIT
Effective June 13, 2022, the Portfolios, in addition to certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser, entered into a 364-day unsecured committed revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”) for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 through June 12, 2023. The proceeds may be used only to finance temporarily: (1) the purchase or sale of investment securities; or (2) the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Portfolio or certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser. The funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount payable quarterly in arrears. Prior to June 13, 2022, the predecessor line of credit was for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 and the funds to which the line of credit was available paid a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount through June 13, 2022.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the federal funds rate plus a specified margin. Repayments generally must be made within 60 days after the date of a revolving credit advance.

NOTE 10 — SECURITIES LENDING
Under a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the “Agreement”) with BNY, the Portfolios can lend their securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. government securities. The collateral is equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned
and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at Market Close of the Portfolios at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded and any additional collateral is delivered to the Portfolios on the next business day. The cash collateral received is invested in approved
53

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 10 — SECURITIES LENDING (continued)
investments as defined in the Agreement with BNY. The Portfolios bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral with the following exception: BNY provides the Portfolios indemnification from loss with respect to the investment of collateral to the extent the cash collateral is invested in overnight repurchase agreements.
Cash collateral received in connection with securities lending is invested in cash equivalents, money market funds, repurchase agreements with maturities of not more than 99 days that are collateralized with U.S. Government securities, or certain short-term investments that have a remaining maturity of 190 days or less (“Permitted Investments”). Short-term investments include: securities, units, shares or other participations in short-term investment funds, pools or trusts; commercial paper, notes, bonds or other debt obligations, certificates of deposit, time deposits and other bank obligations and asset-backed commercial paper backed by diversified receivables and repurchase-backed programs. Permitted Investments are subject to certain guidelines established by the Adviser regarding liquidity, diversification, credit quality and average credit life/duration requirements. The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Portfolio of Investments under Short-Term Investments.
Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolios have the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security; however, there would be a potential loss to the Portfolios in the event the Portfolios are delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Portfolio.
The following tables represent a summary of each respective Portfolio’s securities lending agreements by counterparty which are subject to offset under the Agreement as of December 31, 2022:

NOTE 11 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of foreign currency transactions, futures contracts, capital loss carryforwards, paydowns, straddle loss deferrals and wash sale deferrals. Distributions in excess of net investment income and/or net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.

The Portfolios’ major tax jurisdictions are U.S. federal, Arizona state, and Massachusetts state.
As of December 31, 2022, no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolios’ financial statements as a result of tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for open tax years. The Portfolios’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue. Generally, the preceding four tax years remain subject to examination by these jurisdictions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
NOTE 12 — LONDON INTERBANK OFFERED RATE (“LIBOR”)
In 2017, the UK Financial Conduct Authority announced its intention to cease compelling banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR after 2021. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of LIBOR, stated that non-U.S. dollar LIBOR reference rates and the one-week and two-month LIBOR reference rates ceased to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after December 31, 2021 and the remaining more commonly used LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after June 30, 2023. In addition, global regulators have announced that, with limited exceptions, no new LIBOR-based contracts should be entered into after 2021. Actions by regulators have resulted in the establishment of alternative reference rates to LIBOR in most major currencies (e.g., the Secured Overnight Financing Rate for U.S. Dollar LIBOR and the Sterling Overnight Interbank Average Rate for Sterling LIBOR).
Discontinuance of LIBOR and adoption/implementation of alternative rates pose a number of risks, including among others whether any substitute rate will experience the market participation and liquidity necessary to provide a workable substitute for LIBOR; the effect on parties’ existing contractual arrangements, hedging transactions, and investment strategies generally from a conversion from LIBOR to alternative rates; the effect on a Portfolio’s existing investments (including, for example, fixed-income investments, senior loans, CLOs and CDOs, and derivatives transactions), including the possibility that some of those investments may terminate or their terms may be adjusted to the disadvantage of a Portfolio; and the risk of general market disruption during the period of the conversion. It is difficult to predict at this time the likely impact of the transition away from LIBOR on a Portfolio.
NOTE 13 — MARKET DISRUPTION
A Portfolio is subject to the risk that geopolitical events will disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets. Due to the increasing interdependence among global economies and markets, conditions in one country, market, or region might adversely impact markets, issuers and/or foreign exchange rates in other countries, including the U.S.. Wars, terrorism, global health crises and pandemics, and other geopolitical events that have led, and in the future may continue to lead, to increased market volatility and may have adverse
short- or long-term effects on U.S. and global economies and markets generally. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in significant market volatility, exchange suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, supply chain disruptions, and a substantial economic downturn in economies throughout the world. Natural and environmental disasters and systemic market dislocations are also highly disruptive to economies and markets. In addition, military action by Russia in Ukraine has, and may continue to, adversely affect global energy and financial markets and therefore could affect the value of a Portfolio’s investments, including beyond a Portfolio’s direct exposure to Russian issuers or nearby geographic regions. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict and could be substantial. Those events as well as other changes in foreign (non-U.S.) and domestic economic, social, and political conditions also could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the Portfolio’s investments. Any of these occurrences could disrupt the operations of a Portfolio and of the Portfolio’s service providers.

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS
Voya Balanced Income Portfolio as of December 31, 2022 (continued)
#
The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.
Transactions with Affiliates
An investment of at least 5% of the voting securities of an issuer, or a company which is under common control results in that issuer becoming an affiliated person as defined by the 1940 Act.
The following table provides transactions during the year ended December 31, 2022, where the following issuers were considered an affiliate:

(1)
If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will either i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
(2)
Payments made quarterly.
(3)
The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make or receive as a buyer of credit protection under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement.
(4)
The fair values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. Increasing fair values, in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the agreement, represent a deterioration of the referenced obligation’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring.

(1)
If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will either i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
(2)
Payments made quarterly.
(3)
The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make or receive as a buyer of credit protection under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement.
(4)
The fair values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. Increasing fair values, in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the agreement, represent a deterioration of the referenced obligation’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring.

Trustees serve until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The tenure of each Trustee who is not an “interested person” as defined in the 1940 Act, of each Portfolio (“Independent Trustee”) is subject to the Board’s retirement policy which states that each duly elected or appointed Independent Trustee shall retire from and cease to be a member of the Board of Trustees at the close of business on December 31 of the calendar year in which the Independent Trustee attains the age of 75. A majority vote of the Board’s other Independent Trustees may extend the retirement date of an Independent Trustee if the retirement would trigger a requirement to hold a meeting of shareholders of the Trust under applicable law, whether for the purposes of appointing a successor to the Independent Trustee or otherwise comply under applicable law, in which case the extension would apply until such time as the shareholder meeting can be held or is no longer required (as determined by a vote of a majority of the other Independent Trustees).

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited)
BOARD CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CONTRACT AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT
At a meeting held on November 17, 2022, the Board of Trustees (“Board”) of Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”), including a majority of the Board members who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment management and sub-advisory contracts, and who are not “interested persons” of Voya Balanced Income Portfolio, Voya High Yield Portfolio, Voya Large Cap Growth Portfolio, Voya Large Cap Value Portfolio, Voya Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio, Voya U.S. Stock Index Portfolio, VY® CBRE Real Estate Portfolio (formerly, VY® Clarion Real Estate Portfolio), and VY® JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity Portfolio, each a series of the Trust (the “Portfolios”), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the renewal of the investment management contracts (the “Management Contracts”) between Voya Investments, LLC (the “Manager”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Portfolios, and the sub-advisory contracts (the “Sub-Advisory Contracts,” and together with the Management Contracts, the “Contracts”) with Voya Investment Management Co. LLC, CBRE Investment Management List Real Assets LLC (formerly, CBRE Clarion Securities LLC), and JPMorgan Investment Management Inc., the respective sub-advisers to each Portfolio (the “Sub-Advisers”), for an additional one-year period ending November 30, 2023.
In addition to the Board meeting on November 17, 2022, the Independent Trustees also held meetings outside the presence of representatives of the Manager and Sub-Advisers (collectively, such persons are referred to herein as “management”) on October 12-13, 2022, and November 15, 2022. At those meetings, the Board members reviewed and considered materials related to the proposed continuance of the Contracts that they had requested and believed to be relevant to the renewal of the Contracts in light of their own business judgment and the legal advice furnished to them by K&L Gates LLP, their independent legal counsel. The Board also considered information furnished to it throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees, including information regarding performance, expenses, and other relevant matters. While the Board considered the renewal of the management contracts and sub-advisory contracts for all of the applicable investment companies in the Voya family of funds at the same meetings, the Board considered each Voya fund’s investment management and sub-advisory relationships separately.
The Board has established a Contracts Committee and two Investment Review Committees (the “IRCs”), each of which includes only Independent Trustees as members.
The Contracts Committee meets several times throughout the year to provide oversight with respect to the management and sub-advisory contracts approval and renewal process for the Voya funds, among other functions, and each IRC meets several times throughout the year with respect to each Voya fund (assigned to that IRC) to provide oversight regarding the investment performance of the sub-advisers, as well as the Manager’s role in monitoring the sub-advisers.
The Contracts Committee oversees, and annually recommends Board approval of updates to, a methodology guide for the Voya funds (“Methodology Guide”), which sets out a framework pursuant to which the Independent Trustees request, and management provides, certain information that the Independent Trustees deem to be important or potentially relevant to the contracts renewal process for the Voya funds. The Independent Trustees retain the services of an independent consultant with experience in the mutual fund industry to assist the Contracts Committee in developing and recommending to the Board: (1) a selected peer group of investment companies for each Portfolio (“Selected Peer Group”) based on that Portfolio’s particular attributes, such as fund type and size, fund category (as determined by Morningstar, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data (“Morningstar”)), sales channels and structure and the Portfolio share class being compared to the Selected Peer Group; and (2) updates to the Methodology Guide with respect to the content and format of various data prepared in connection with the renewal process, including, but not limited to, investment performance, fee structure, and expense information. In addition, the Independent Trustees periodically have retained an independent firm to test and verify the accuracy of certain information presented to the Board for a representative sample of the Voya funds.
The Manager or a Sub-Adviser may not have been able to, or opted not to, provide information in response to certain information requests, in which case the Board conducted its evaluation based on the information that was provided. In such cases, the Board determined that the omission of any such information was not material to its considerations. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of the Manager and a Sub-Adviser.
Provided below is an overview of certain material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding the renewal of the Contracts and the compensation to be paid thereunder. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was most relevant to its consideration.

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Manager oversees, subject to the authority of the Board, and is responsible for the provision of, all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Portfolios, but may delegate certain of these responsibilities to one or more sub-advisers. In addition, the Manager provides administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Portfolios as set forth in the Management Contracts, including oversight of the Portfolios’ operations and risk management and the oversight of their various other service providers.
The Board considered the “manager-of-managers” structure of the Voya funds that has been developed by the Manager pursuant to which the Manager selects, subject to the Board’s approval, sub-advisers to provide day-to-day management services to all or a portion of each Voya fund. The Board recognized that the Manager is responsible for monitoring the Sub-Advisers’ investment program, performance, developments, ongoing operations, and compliance with applicable regulations and investment policies and restrictions with respect to the Portfolios under this manager-of-managers arrangement. The Board also considered the techniques and resources that the Manager has developed to provide this ongoing due diligence and oversight with respect to the sub-advisers and to recommend appropriate changes in investment strategies, sub-advisers, or allocation among sub-advisers in an effort to improve a Voya fund’s performance. In connection with the Manager’s performance of these duties, the Board considered that the Manager has developed an oversight process formulated by its Manager Research & Selection Group that reviews, among other matters, performance data, each Sub-Adviser’s management team, portfolio data and attribution analysis related to each Sub-Adviser through various means, including, but not limited to, in-person meetings, on-site or virtual visits, and telephonic meetings with the Sub-Adviser.
Further, the Board considered periodic compliance reports it receives from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer evaluating, among other related matters, whether the regulatory compliance systems and procedures of the Manager and Sub-Advisers are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the federal securities laws and whether the investment policies and restrictions for each Portfolio are complied with on a consistent basis.
The Board considered the portfolio management team assigned by the Sub-Advisers to the Portfolios and the level of resources committed to the Portfolios (and other relevant funds in the Voya funds) by the Manager and the Sub-Advisers, and whether those resources are sufficient to provide high-quality services to the Portfolios.
Based on their deliberations and the materials presented to them, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and
quality of the overall services provided by the Manager and each Sub-Adviser under the Contracts were appropriate.
Portfolio Performance
In assessing the investment management and sub-advisory relationships, the Board placed emphasis on the investment returns of each Portfolio, including its investment performance over certain time periods compared to the Portfolio’s Morningstar category (except for Voya U.S. Stock Index Portfolio, as discussed below) and primary benchmark, a broad-based securities market index identified in the Portfolio’s prospectus In addition, the Board considered Voya Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio’s investment performance compared to an additional performance peer group that is approved by the Board due to the investment structure or strategy of that Portfolio. The Board also considered information from the Manager Research & Selection Group and received reports summarizing a separate analysis of each Portfolio’s performance and risk, including risk-adjusted investment return information, from the Trust’s Chief Investment Risk Officer.
In assessing the investment management and sub-advisory relationships, with respect to Voya U.S. Stock Index Portfolio which seeks investment results corresponding to the performance of an index (commonly referred to an as an “index fund”), the Board focused on the reasonableness of the differences between the Portfolio’s net performance and the total return of such index over certain time periods.
Economies of Scale
When evaluating the reasonableness of the management fee schedules, the Board considered whether economies of scale have been or likely will be realized by the Manager and the Sub-Advisers as a Portfolio grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are shared with the Portfolio. In this regard, the Board noted any breakpoints in the management fee schedules that will result in a lower management fee rate when a Portfolio achieves sufficient asset levels to receive a breakpoint discount. The Board also considered that, while some of the Portfolios do not have management fee breakpoints, they may have fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale realized by the Manager or the Sub-Advisers could be shared with each Portfolio through such fee waivers, expense reimbursements or other expense reductions. In evaluating these matters, the Board also considered periodic management reports, Selected Peer Group comparisons, and industry information regarding economies of scale. In the case of sub-advisory fees, the Board considered that breakpoints, if any, would inure to the benefit of the Manager.

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
Information Regarding Services, Performance, and Fee Schedules Offered to Other Clients
The Board considered comparative information regarding the nature of services, performance, and fee schedules offered by the Manager and Sub-Advisers to other clients with similar investment objectives, if applicable, including other registered investment companies and relevant institutional accounts. When the fee schedules offered to or the performance of such other clients differed materially from a Portfolio, the Board took into account the underlying rationale provided by the Manager or Sub-Advisers, as applicable, for these differences. For the non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers, the Board viewed the information related to any material differences in the fee schedules as not being a key factor in its deliberations because of the arm’s-length nature of negotiations between the Manager and non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers with respect to sub-advisory fee schedules and that the Manager is responsible for paying the fees of the Sub-Advisers.
Fee Schedules, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits
The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee schedule and net management fee rate payable by each Portfolio to the Manager compared to the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group and which additional services the Manager pays for on behalf of Voya High Yield Portfolio, Voya Limited Maturity Bond Portfolio, Voya U.S. Stock Index Portfolio, and VY® JPMorgan Small Cap Core Equity Portfolio under the “bundled fee” arrangement in return for a single management fee (“Unified Fee Structure”). The Board also considered the compensation payable by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services for each Portfolio, including the portion of the contractual and net management fee rates that are paid to each Sub-Adviser, as compared to the compensation paid to the Manager. In addition, the Board considered any fee waivers, expense limitations, and/or recoupment arrangements that apply to the fees payable by the Portfolios, including whether the Manager intends to propose any changes thereto. For each Portfolio, the Board separately determined that the fees payable to the Manager and the fee schedule payable to each Sub-Adviser are reasonable for the services that each performs, which were considered in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services that each has performed and is expected to perform.
For each Portfolio, the Board considered information on revenues, costs and profits or losses realized by the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser related to their services to the Portfolio. In analyzing the profitability of the Manager and its affiliates in connection with
services they render to a Portfolio, the Board took into account the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered the profitability of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser attributable to servicing each Portfolio both with and without taking into account the profitability of the distributor of the Portfolios and any revenue sharing payments made by the Manager. The Board did not request profitability data from the Sub-Advisers that are not affiliated with the Manager because the Board did not view this data as a key factor to its deliberations given the arm’s-length nature of the relationship between the Manager and these non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers with respect to the negotiation of sub-advisory fee schedules. In addition, the Board noted that non-Voya-affiliated sub-advisers may not account for their profits on an account-by-account basis and those that do often employ different methodologies in connection with these calculations.
Although the Methodology Guide establishes a framework for profit calculation, the Board recognized that there is no uniform methodology within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose. The Board also recognized that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to dramatically different reported profit and loss results with respect to the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser, as well as other industry participants with whom the profits of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser could be compared. In addition, the Board recognized that management’s calculations regarding its costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the Portfolios’ operations may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to each Portfolio in determining profitability. The Board also recognized that the information presented may not portray all of the costs borne by the Manager or reflect all of the risks associated with offering and managing a mutual fund complex in the current regulatory and market environment, including entrepreneurial, regulatory, legal and operational risks.
The Board also considered that the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser are entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that they provide to the Portfolios. The Board also considered information regarding the potential fall-out benefits to the Manager and Sub-Advisers and their respective affiliates from their association with the Portfolios, including their ability to engage in soft-dollar transactions on behalf of the Portfolios. Following its reviews, the Board determined that the Manager’s and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser’s profitability with respect to their services to the Portfolios and the Manager’s and Sub-Advisers’ potential fall-out benefits were not unreasonable.

Portfolio-by-Portfolio Analysis
Set forth below are certain of the specific factors that the Board considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings in relation to approving each Portfolio’s Contracts and the conclusions reached by the Board. These specific factors are in addition to those considerations discussed above. In each case, the Portfolio’s performance was compared to its Morningstar category, as well as its primary benchmark and, as applicable, a performance peer group. The performance data provided to the Board primarily was for various periods ended March 31, 2022.

Each Portfolio’s management fee rate and expense ratio were compared to the management fee rates and expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. With respect to the quintile rankings noted below, the first quintile represents the range of funds with the highest performance or the lowest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable, and the fifth quintile represents the range of funds with the lowest performance or the highest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable.

VY® BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to maximize real return, consistent with preservation of real capital and prudent investment management. The Portfolio is managed by Chris Allen, Managing Director and Akiva Dickstein, Managing Director, and David Rogal, Portfolio Managers of BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of -12.74% compared to the Bloomberg U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Index (“TIPS Index” or “TIPS”) which returned -11.85% for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics: Our structural underweight in US nominal rates was the most notable contributor to performance over the year. We were underweight headline nominal duration in the US, as the rates market recalibrated its pricing after the continued hawkish pivot from the Fed since late 2021. The portfolio’s long in US breakevens at both the 1-year and 5-year points on the curve also positively contributed to performance due to the tailwind of high inflation prints over the year. Finally, the portfolio’s relative value positions between US vs. EU breakevens contributed to performance as breakevens in the US slightly outperformed the EU.

Offsetting some of the positive performance was the portfolio’s outright short in UK breakevens, especially earlier in the year. An acute surge in energy prices in the UK pushed the country’s inflation expectations materially higher over period. 10-year UK breakevens increased ~41 bps just in Q1 2022 and settled materially higher than realized inflation. The portfolio’s tactical positions in EU supra sovereign spread assets negatively contributed to performance as spread levels widened. Also, detracting from performance was the portfolio’s relative value positions between New Zealand vs. US real rates as New Zealand real rates increased more than the US. The Team’s tactical interest rate volatility positions also hurt performance as rates volatility picked up over the year. The small allocation to emerging market debt and European peripheral spreads also negatively contributed to performance.

Market Overview: In our opinion, the past year was one defined by central banks moving interest rates higher as inflation ran at its highest level in decades. As the Fed and other central banks raised rates, interest rates across the curve moved materially higher, curves inverted, and risks assets performed poorly. The market did, however, price inflation expectations higher over the period given the elevated levels of realized inflation. Following the extensive rate hikes of the Fed, inflationary pressures are thought to have peaked and therefore, likely to ease into 2023. This is also due to healing supply chains. However, we believe the full effects of Fed policy have not been totally apparent due to the lagging effect of economic indicators, which has resulted in increased expectations for a recession. Macroeconomic volatility and uncertainty during the year was only reinforced by major global events contributing to the turbulence in the markets in 2022. Energy prices underwent shocks across the globe and, particularly in Europe, driven by the war in Ukraine leading to soaring prices. To dampen the burden of these high energy costs, the EU energy ministers settled on a gas price cap of €180 per megawatt hour but will likely continue to combat recessionary symptoms in the new year. In addition to the numerous rate hikes from the ECB, it is anticipated that their hawkish rhetoric will continue in order to subdue the omnipresent inflation throughout the euro area. For the UK, the Bank of England followed the ECB and raised rates onset by the UK Gilt crisis seen earlier this fall. Meanwhile, the Bank of Japan shocked markets during their announcement to increase the range of the Japanese 10-year note which may drive global long-term bond yields into the new year as loosening in their yield curve control led to a selloff.

Current Strategy and Outlook: US: The Team views the Federal Reserve (Fed) will only pause its rate hikes in Q2 or H2 of 2023. It will remain focused on crushing inflation and hold rates at a restrictive area to temper the stubbornly strong labor market. However, in our opinion, this makes a recession almost inevitable. The central bank has been toeing the line between a soft landing and a hard landing,

where the former means we can get through this tightening period without a significant economic contraction. We believe volatility in the rates market is likely to come down as inflation pressures ease further with the healing of the supply chain and normalizing consumer demand. We believe this puts the terminal policy rate in sight, with the market pricing in a potential rate cut in the latter half of 2023. We believe the interest rate carry is attractive in the front end, but rates further out the curve have room to increase as investors demand higher term premiums. Depending on the inflation trajectory, we forecast the Fed to raise rates by either 25 or 50 bps at its February meeting, followed by a 25 bps hike in March. This will bring the Fed Funds Target to ~4.85% by the end of Q1.

On the inflation front, CPI data showed compelling signs of slowing over Q4, with declines across the spectrum. The Team believes inflation has likely peaked and will continue to slow in the coming months. Our current forecasts have MoM core CPI hovering ~0.2 — 0.3% MoM and headline CPI ~0.1 — 0.2% MoM over the next several months. However, we believe shelter inflation, in particular, will remain sticky into 2023.

Within Europe: We view the near-term policy path for the European Central Bank (ECB) is materially impacted by the ongoing energy crisis and persistent inflation. The war-induced energy crisis has put EU countries’ economies in a precarious situation, with a recession that is likely to run deep without significant recovery until 2024. The warmer-than-expected winter has helped ease the energy crunch, but the problem will likely persist in 2023 as major supply pipelines, such as the Nord Stream 1, likely stay permanently shut; stockpiling energy will remain a crucial focus for the Euro area in 2023.

The energy supply crunch has translated to double-digit inflation and has significantly raised stagflation risk. Given geopolitical uncertainties, we think current price momentum is unlikely to fade quickly. Given the recent hawkish ECB rhetoric, we believe the central bank will continue to hike rates to control the high, persistent, and broad-based inflation in the euro area. We expect the ECB Governing Council to increase policy rates by a total of ~100 bps over Q1, lifting the deposit rate to 3% and the Main Refinancing Operations (MRO) rate to 3.5% by March 2023. We forecast headline (core) inflation to average ~5.6% (3.7%) in 2023 before converging to the ECB 2% target by the end of 2024.

Against a similar backdrop, the Bank of England (BoE) has a perilous task of weighing the need for further rate hikes without triggering a material economic downturn. The capping of energy prices has returned some freedom to BoE in terms of growth/inflation policy trade-off. However, the government has pledged not to extend the energy cap beyond April 2023. In light of this, we expect inflation to remain above 8% for most of 2023 before falling towards 2% in mid-2024 as base effects from higher energy costs wane. We believe we will see the BoE hike two more times before potentially pausing, 50 bps at the February meeting and 25 bps at the March meeting, taking the terminal Bank Rate to 4.25%.

Within Japan: The Bank of Japan (BoJ) surprised the market in December when it tweaked its long-standing Yield Curve Control (YCC) policy by adjusting its 10-year yield range up from +/-0.25% to +/-0.50%. This sent a shockwave across the market as the upward adjustment signaled a potential beginning of policy normalization. The change helped the Japanese Yen (JPY) to regain some lost ground after experiencing significant depreciation in 2022. It’s important to note that the BoJ does not face the same surging inflationary macro backdrop as some of its developed market peers. Despite inflation running well above the BoJ’s 2% target at ~3.7% YoY in November, its sustainability is questionable as most of the increase is led by FX and commodity induced price increases. We believe wage growth is the key to the longer-term sustainability of inflation. One focal point in 2023 will be whether the annual spring wage negotiations produce notable wage increases. We estimate that core CPI inflation reached 3.6% YoY in Q4 due to a concentration of markups to food prices with the rise in the cost of raw material imports. We expect core CPI ex. perishables eases to around 1.6% YoY by the end of 2023.

VY® BrandywineGLOBAL — Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks total return consisting of capital appreciation and income. The Portfolio is managed by David F. Hoffman, CFA, John P. McIntyre, CFA, and Anujeet Sareen, CFA, Portfolio Managers of Brandywine Global Investment Management, LLC (“Brandywine”). — the Sub-Adviser.

Performance: For the year-ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s shares provided a total return of -11.89% compared to the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (“Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond”), which returned -13.01% for the same period.

Portfolio Specifics — The Portfolio started the year with an underweight duration position versus the benchmark but ended the year with a substantially overweight duration position. As the Federal Reserve began aggressively raising interest rates in the first half of 2022, we felt it was prudent to begin increasing duration to take advantage of value opportunities in anticipation of slowing growth and inflation. The underweight duration position in the first half of the year along with selection and timing within corporates and mortgages were the primary drivers of our relative outperformance.

We increased duration during the year, mostly notably in the second half of 2022. The team elected to increase duration for a couple of key reasons. First, we believe that rate hikes tend to impact the economy on a lagged basis, and we felt the aggressive hikes had the potential to materially slow growth and inflation to a point that the Fed may have to reverse course in 2023. Secondly, virtually all major economic indicators began to turn lower (some sharply) by late summer.

We reduced our investment grade corporate positions in late 2021 and early 2022 due to valuations and tight spreads but elected to add back exposure in the second half of the year due to wider spreads and attractive yields. We increased our exposure to agency MBS in the second half of the year due to attractive spreads and a decrease in prepayment risk.

Current Strategy and Outlook: We believe the outlook for the U.S. economy is complicated; the inverted yield curve suggests inflation is set to moderate, while the Fed appears committed to further action. In our opinion, this hawkishness, accompanied by more supply-side normalization, should lead to significantly slower inflation and a softer labor market. We believe the conditions for a credit crunch, commonly seen ahead of previous U.S. recessions, do not exist currently. That said, recession odds increase significantly if Fed Chair Powell remains dogmatic about creating labor market slack through monetary policy. A pause in rate hikes seems probable in our opinion, especially if economic data shows a steep decline in inflation.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLES (UNAUDITED)

As a shareholder of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Portfolio expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The Portfolios’ expenses are shown without the imposition of any charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract, variable life insurance policy, qualified pension, or retirement plan. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.

Actual Expenses

The left section of the table shown below, “Actual Portfolio Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The right section of the table shown below, “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses),” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Portfolio’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 the ongoing costs of investing in a Portfolio and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of VY® BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio and VY® BrandywineGLOBAL — Bond Portfolio and the Boards of Trustees of Voya Investors Trust and Voya Variable Insurance Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of VY® BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio and VY® BrandywineGLOBAL — Bond Portfolio (collectively referred to as the “Portfolios”) (each a portfolio of Voya Investors Trust and Voya Variable Insurance Trust, respectively (collectively referred to as the “Trusts”)), including the portfolios of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Portfolios at December 31, 2022, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and their financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The financial highlights for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated February 21, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trusts’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolios’ 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 Trusts 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 in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trusts are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trusts’ internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trusts’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such 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 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers and others, we performed other auditing procedures. 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more Voya investment companies since 2019.

  Annualized for periods less than one year.
(3)
  Ratios reflect operating expenses of a Portfolio. Expenses before reductions/additions do not reflect amounts reimbursed or recouped by the Investment Adviser and/or Distributor or reductions from brokerage service arrangements or other expense offset arrangements and do not represent the amount paid by a Portfolio during periods when reimbursements or reductions occur.
    Expenses net of fee waivers reflect expenses after reimbursement by the Investment Adviser and/or Distributor or recoupment of previously reimbursed fees by the Investment Adviser, but prior to reductions from brokerage service arrangements or other expense offset arrangements. Expenses net of all reductions/additions represent the net expenses paid by a Portfolio. Net investment income (loss) is net of all such additions or reductions.
(4)
  Ratios do not include fees and expenses charged under the variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy.
  Calculated using average number of shares outstanding throughout the year or period.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION

Voya Investors Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company and was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on August 3, 1988. Voya Investors Trust currently consists of twenty-one active separate investment series. The one series included in this report is: VY® BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio (“BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond”), a diversified series of Voya Investors Trust.

Voya Variable Insurance Trust is registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company and was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 15, 1999. Voya Variable Insurance Trust consists of one active investment series which is included in this report: VY® BrandywineGLOBAL — Bond Portfolio (“Bond Portfolio”), a diversified series of Voya Variable Insurance Trust.

Voya Investors Trust and Voya Variable Insurance Trust are collectively referred to as the “Trusts.” BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond and Bond Portfolio are each, a “Portfolio” and together, the “Portfolios.” The investment objective of the Portfolios is described in each Portfolio’s Prospectus.

The classes of shares included in this report for BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond are: Adviser (“Class ADV”), Institutional (“Class I”), and Service (“Class S”). With the exception of class specific matters, each class has equal voting rights as to voting privileges. For class specific proposals, only the applicable class would have voting privileges. The classes differ principally in the applicable distribution and shareholder service fees, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses, if any. Generally, shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders are allocated the common expenses of a portfolio and earn income and realized gains/losses from a portfolio pro rata based on the daily ending net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses that are specific to a portfolio or a class are charged directly to that portfolio or class. Other operating expenses shared by several portfolios are generally allocated among those portfolios based on average net assets. Distributions are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocated to each class. Realized gain distributions are allocated to each class pro rata based on the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder service fees, if any, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses between the

separate classes, if any. Bond Portfolio does not have a share class designation.

Voya Investments, LLC (“Voya Investments” or the “Investment Adviser”), an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the Investment Adviser to the Portfolios. Voya Investments Distributor, LLC (“VID” or the “Distributor”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the principal underwriter to the Portfolios.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Portfolio is considered an investment company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A.  Security Valuation. Each Portfolio is open for business every day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) opens for regular trading (each such day, a “Business Day”). The net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of each Portfolio is determined each Business Day as of the close of the regular trading session (“Market Close”), as determined by the Consolidated Tape Association (“CTA”), the central distributor of transaction prices for exchange-traded securities (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time unless otherwise designated by the CTA). The NAV per share of each class of each Portfolio is calculated by taking the value of the Portfolio’s assets attributable to that class, subtracting the Portfolio’s liabilities attributable to that class, and dividing by the number of shares of that class that are outstanding. On days when a Portfolio is closed for business, Portfolio shares will not be priced and a Portfolio does not transact purchase and redemption orders. To the extent a Portfolio’s assets are traded in other markets on days when a Portfolio does not price its shares, the value of a Portfolio’s assets will likely change and you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of a Portfolio.

Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. Investments in open-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day NAV per share. The prospectuses of the open-end registered investment companies in which each Portfolio may invest explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing. Foreign securities’ prices are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of Market Close.

When a market quotation for a portfolio security is not readily available or is deemed unreliable (for example when trading has been halted or there are unexpected

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


market closures or other material events that would suggest that the market quotation is unreliable) and for purposes of determining the value of other Portfolio assets, the asset is priced at its fair value. The Board has designated the Investment Adviser, as the valuation designee, to make fair value determinations in good faith. In determining the fair value of each Portfolio’s assets, the Investment Adviser, pursuant to its fair valuation policy, may consider inputs from pricing service providers, broker-dealers, or each Portfolio’s sub-adviser(s). Issuer specific events, transaction price, position size, nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of an asset’s fair value. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before Market Close, closing market quotations may become unreliable. The prices of foreign securities will generally be adjusted based on inputs from an independent pricing service that are intended to reflect valuation changes through the NYSE close. Because of the inherent uncertainties of fair valuation, the values used to determine each Portfolio’s NAV may materially differ from the value received upon actual sale of those investments. Thus, fair valuation may have an unintended dilutive or accretive effect on the value of shareholders’ investments in each Portfolio.

The Portfolios’ financial instruments are valued at the close of the NYSE and are reported at fair value, which GAAP defines as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Various valuation techniques and inputs are used to determine the fair value of financial instruments. GAAP establishes the following fair value hierarchy that categorizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments that the portfolio can access at the reporting date.

Level 2 — inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in inactive markets, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads).

Level 3 — unobservable inputs (including the portfolio’s own assumptions in determining fair value).

Observable inputs are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, and reflect the assumptions that market

participants would use to price the financial instrument. Unobservable inputs are those for which market data are not available and are developed using the best information available about the assumptions that market participants would use to price the financial instrument. GAAP requires valuation techniques to maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. When multiple inputs are used to derive fair value, the financial instrument is assigned to the level within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value of the financial instrument. Input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with financial instruments at that level but rather the degree of judgment used in determining those values.

A table summarizing each Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within each Portfolio of Investments.

Each investment asset or liability of the Portfolios is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” inputs other than quoted prices for an asset or liability that are observable are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the sub-advisers’ or Pricing Committee’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality are generally considered to be Level 2 securities under applicable accounting rules. A table summarizing each Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within the Portfolio of Investments.

GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. A reconciliation of Level 3 investments within the Portfolio of Investments is presented only when a Portfolio has a significant amount of Level 3 investments.

B.  Securities Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Portfolios. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method.


15



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

C.  Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:


(1)
  Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at Market Close.
     
(2)
  Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at Market Close, the Portfolios do not isolate the portion of their results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities, which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding tax reclaims recorded on the Portfolios’ books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. The foregoing risks are even greater with respect to securities of issuers in emerging markets.

D.  Distributions to Shareholders. Net investment income dividends and net capital gain distributions, if any, for Bond Portfolio are declared and paid annually. For BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond, dividends from net

investment income, if any, are declared and paid monthly and distributions of net capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually. The Portfolios may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies.

E.  Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of each Portfolio to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, a federal income tax or excise tax provision is not required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Portfolios’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until the capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized.

The Portfolios may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain.

F.  Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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.

G.  Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. The Portfolios’ investment strategies permit the Portfolios to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, a Portfolio will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the level or types of exposure to risk factors. This may allow a Portfolio to pursue its objectives more quickly, and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of affecting a similar response to market or credit factors.

In pursuit of its investment objectives, a Portfolio may seek to increase or decrease its exposure to the following market or credit risk factors:

Credit Risk. The price of a bond or other debt instrument is likely to fall if the issuer’s actual or perceived financial


16



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

health deteriorates, whether because of broad economic or issuer-specific reasons. In certain cases, the issuer could be late in paying interest or principal, or could fail to pay its financial obligations altogether.

Equity Risk. Stock prices may be volatile or have reduced liquidity in response to real or perceived impacts of factors including, but not limited to, economic conditions, changes in market interest rates, and political events. Stock markets tend to be cyclical, with periods when stock prices generally rise and periods when stock prices generally decline. Any given stock market segment may remain out of favor with investors for a short or long period of time, and stocks as an asset class may underperform bonds or other asset classes during some periods. Additionally, legislative, regulatory or tax policies or developments in these areas may adversely impact the investment techniques available to a manager, add to costs and impair the ability of a Portfolio to achieve its investment objectives.

Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. To the extent that a Portfolio invests directly in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities denominated in, or that trade in, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, it is subject to the risk that those foreign (non-U.S.) currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged by a Portfolio through foreign currency exchange transactions.

Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. Currency rates may be affected by changes in market interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, by the imposition of currency controls, or other political or economic developments in the United States or abroad.

Interest Rate Risk. With bonds and other fixed rate debt instruments, a rise in market interest rates generally causes values to fall; conversely, values generally rise as market interest rates fall. The higher the credit quality of the instrument, and the longer its maturity or duration, the more sensitive it is likely to be to interest rate risk As of the date of this report, the United States experiences a rising market interest rate environment, which may increase a Portfolio’s exposure to risks associated with rising market interest rates. Rising market interest rates have unpredictable effects on the markets and may expose fixed-income and related markets to heightened volatility. For a fund that invests in fixed-income securities, an increase in market interest rates may lead to increased redemptions and increased portfolio turnover, which could reduce liquidity

for certain investments, adversely affect values, and increase costs. If dealer capacity in fixed-income markets is insufficient for market conditions, it may further inhibit liquidity and increase volatility in the fixed-income markets. Further, recent and potential changes in government policy may affect interest rates.

Risks of Investing in Derivatives. A Portfolio’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market or credit risk factors and the overall market. In instances where a Portfolio is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market or credit risk factors for securities held by a Portfolio, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.

Derivative instruments are subject to a number of risks, including the risk of changes in the market price of the underlying securities, credit risk with respect to the counterparty, risk of loss due to changes in market interest rates and liquidity and volatility risk. The amounts required to purchase certain derivatives may be small relative to the magnitude of exposure assumed by a Portfolio. Therefore, the purchase of certain derivatives may have an economic leveraging effect on a Portfolio and exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV. Derivatives may not perform as expected, so a Portfolio may not realize the intended benefits. When used for hedging purposes, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the currency, security or other risk being hedged. When used as an alternative or substitute for direct cash investments, the return provided by the derivative may not provide the same return as direct cash investment. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose a Portfolio to the risk of improper valuation.

Generally, derivatives are sophisticated financial instruments whose performance is derived, at least in part, from the performance of an underlying asset or assets. Derivatives include, among other things, swap agreements, options, forwards and futures. Investments in derivatives are generally negotiated over-the-counter (“OTC”) with a single counterparty and as a result are subject to credit risks related to the counterparty’s ability or willingness to perform its obligations; any deterioration in the counterparty’s creditworthiness could adversely affect the value of the derivative. In addition, derivatives and their underlying securities may experience periods of illiquidity which could cause a Portfolio to hold a security it might otherwise sell, or to sell a security it otherwise might hold at inopportune times or at an unanticipated price. A manager might imperfectly judge the direction of the market. For instance, if a derivative is used as a hedge to offset investment risk in another security, the hedge might not correlate to the market’s movements and may have


17

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

unexpected or undesired results such as a loss or a reduction in gains.

Counterparty Credit Risk and Credit Related Contingent Features. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to a Portfolio. Each Portfolio’s derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. A Portfolio intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that it believes to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. To reduce this risk, a Portfolio has entered into master netting arrangements, established within each Portfolio’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) Master Agreements (“Master Agreements”). These Master Agreements are with select counterparties and they govern transactions, including certain OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts, entered into by a Portfolio and the counterparty. The Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate all of its contracts and affect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable Master Agreement.

A Portfolio may also enter into collateral agreements with certain counterparties to further mitigate counterparty credit risk on OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts. Subject to established minimum levels, collateral is generally determined based on the net aggregate unrealized gain or loss on contracts with a certain counterparty. Collateral pledged to or from a Portfolio is held in a segregated account by a third-party agent and can be in the form of cash or debt securities issued by the U.S. government or related agencies.

At December 31, 2022, the maximum amount of loss that BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond would incur if the counterparties to its derivative transactions failed to perform would be $1,175,782 which represents the gross payments to be received by the Portfolio on OTC purchased options, forward foreign currency contracts, and OTC interest rate swaps were they to be unwound as of December 31, 2022. At December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had received $680,000 in cash collateral from certain counterparties.

Each Portfolio has credit related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivative counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from a Portfolio. Credit related contingent features are established between a Portfolio and its

derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that a Portfolio will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in a Portfolio’s net assets and/or a percentage decrease in a Portfolio’s NAV, which could cause a Portfolio to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty. The contingent features are established within each Portfolio’s Master Agreements.

At December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had a liability position of $2,095,305 on forward foreign currency contracts and OTC written options with credit related contingent features. If a contingent feature would have been triggered as of December 31, 2022, the Portfolio could have been required to pay this amount in cash to its counterparties. At December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had not pledged any cash collateral for its open OTC derivative transactions.

H.  Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. A Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency contracts primarily to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risk on its non-U.S. dollar denominated investment securities. When entering into a forward foreign currency contract, a Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed future date. These contracts are valued daily and a Portfolio’s net equity therein, representing unrealized gain or loss on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date, is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in the Statements of Operations. These instruments involve market and/or credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from movement in currency and securities values and interest rates. Open forward foreign currency contracts are presented within the Portfolio of Investments.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had entered into forward foreign currency contracts with the obligation to buy and sell specified foreign currencies in the future at a currently negotiated forward rate in order to increase or decrease exposure to foreign exchange rate risk. The Portfolio uses forward foreign currency contracts primarily to protect any non-U.S. dollar-denominated holdings from adverse currency movements and to gain exposure to currencies for the purposes of risk management or enhanced return.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had average contract amounts of $2,384,936 and $5,710,883 on forward foreign currency


18



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

contracts purchased and sold, respectively. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for open forward foreign currency contracts at December 31, 2022.

I.  Futures Contracts. Each Portfolio may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and security indices. A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future date. Each Portfolio may buy and sell futures contracts. Futures contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when a Portfolio’s assets are valued.

Upon entering into a futures contract, a Portfolio is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by a Portfolio each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses and included within Cash collateral for futures contracts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Open futures contracts are reported on a table within the Portfolio of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are footnoted in the Portfolio of Investments. Cash collateral held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is reported in the Statements of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported in the Statements of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.

Futures contracts are exposed to the market risk factor of the underlying financial instrument. Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where a Portfolio is unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of a Portfolio’s securities. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to a Portfolio since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. During the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond and Bond Portfolio had purchased and sold futures contracts on various bonds and notes as part of their duration strategy. During the year ended

December 31, 2022, the following Portfolios had average notional values on futures contracts purchased and sold as disclosed below:

  Purchased     Sold
BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond
      $ 86,581,513          $ 55,352,378   
Bond Portfolio
         17,840,563                

Please refer to the tables within Portfolio of Investments for open futures contracts for BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond at December 31, 2022. There were no open futures contracts for Bond Portfolio at December 31, 2022.

At December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had pledged U.S. Treasuries with an original par value of $1,023,000 as collateral for open futures contracts.

J. Options Contracts. The Portfolios may purchase put and call options and may write (sell) put options and covered call options. The Portfolios may engage in option transactions as a hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings or to increase market exposure. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded based upon the last sales price on the principal exchange on which the options are traded. An amount equal to the premium received by the Portfolios upon the writing of a put or call option is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a liability which is subsequently marked-to-market until it is exercised or closed, or it expires. The Portfolios will realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the option contract. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales of the underlying security for a written call option, the purchase cost of the security for a written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on option contracts are reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The risk in writing a covered call option is that a Portfolio gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that a Portfolio may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that a Portfolio pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Risks may also arise from an illiquid secondary market or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had purchased and written exchange-traded futures contracts to manage its duration strategy and to generate income. BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had average notional values of $37,964,035 and $38,290,959, respectively, on purchased and written exchange-traded futures contracts. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for


19



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

open purchased and written options on exchange-traded futures contracts at December 31, 2022.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had purchased and written interest rate swap options (“swaptions”) to manage its duration strategy and to generate income. BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had average notional values of $44,464,172 and $87,489,051, respectively, on purchased and written interest rate swaptions. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for open purchased and written interest rate swaptions at December 31, 2022.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had purchased and written foreign currency options to manage its foreign exchange exposure. BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had an average notional value of $2,493,589 and $1,225,511, respectively on purchased and written foreign currency options. There were no open purchased or written foreign currency options at December 31, 2022.

K.  Swap Agreements. The Portfolios may enter into swap agreements. A swap is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which each party agrees to make one or more payments to the other at specified future intervals based on the return of an asset (such as a stock, bond or currency) or non-asset reference (such as an interest rate or index). Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the OTC market and may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered commodities exchange (“centrally cleared swaps”).

The swap agreement will specify the “notional” amount of the asset or non-asset reference to which the contract relates. Subsequent changes in market value, if any, are calculated based upon changes in the performance of the asset or non-asset reference multiplied by the notional value of the contract. The Portfolios may enter into credit default, interest rate, total return and currency swaps to manage its exposure to credit, currency and interest rate risk. All outstanding swap agreements are reported within the Portfolio of Investments.

Swaps are marked to market daily using quotations primarily from third party pricing services, counterparties or brokers. The value of the swap contract is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the swap, if any, are recorded as unrealized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations. Upfront payments paid or received by a Portfolio when entering into the agreements are reported on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and as a component of the changes in unrealized gains or losses on the

Statements of Operations. These upfront payments represent the amounts paid or received when initially entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and the prevailing market conditions. The upfront payments are included as a component in the realized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A Portfolio also records net periodic payments paid or received on the swap contract as a realized gain or loss on the Statements of Operations.

In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is novated to a central counterparty (the “CCP”) and a Portfolio’s counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP. A Portfolio is required to interface with the CCP through a broker. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, a Portfolio is required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on the size and risk profile of the particular swap. Securities deposited as initial margin are footnoted as pledged on the Portfolio of Investments and cash deposited is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged for centrally cleared swaps. The daily change in valuation of centrally cleared swaps is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received from (paid to) the counterparty, including at termination, are recorded as realized gain (loss) on the Statements of Operations.

Entering into swap agreements involves the risk that the maximum potential loss of an investment exceeds the current value of the investment as reported on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Other risks involve the possibility that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform, that there will be no liquid market for these investments and that unfavorable changes in the market will have a negative impact on the value of the index or securities underlying the respective swap agreement.

Credit Default Swap Contracts. A credit default swap is a bilateral agreement between counterparties in which the buyer of the protection agrees to make a stream of periodic payments to the seller of protection in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event for a referenced entity, obligation or index. As a seller of protection on credit default swaps, a Portfolio will generally receive from the buyer a fixed payment stream based on the notional amount of the swap contract. This fixed payment stream will continue until the swap contract expires or a defined credit event occurs.


20



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

A Portfolio is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. As a seller of protection in a credit default swap, a Portfolio may execute these contracts to manage its exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market. Certain Portfolios may also enter into credit default swaps to speculate on changes in an issuer’s credit quality, to take advantage of perceived spread advantages, or to offset an existing short equivalent (i.e. buying protection on an equivalent reference entity).

Certain Portfolios may sell credit default swaps which expose these Portfolios to the risk of loss from credit risk-related events specified in the contract. Although contract specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default or repudiation/moratorium. If a Portfolio is a seller of protection, and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will generally either (i) pay to the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations, or underlying securities comprising a referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising a referenced index. If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. Recovery values are assumed by market makers considering either industry standard recovery rates or entity specific factors and considerations until a credit event occurs. If a credit event has occurred, the recovery value is determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specified valuation method, are used to calculate the settlement value.

Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues are disclosed in each Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/

selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities or credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting fair values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing fair values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreements, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by a Portfolio for the same referenced entity or entities.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond sold credit protection on credit default swap indices (“CDX”) with an average notional amount of $1,485,000 to gain additional exposure to the various sectors of the credit market. A CDX is a basket of credit instruments or exposures designed to be representative of some part of the credit market as a whole. There were no open credit default swaps to sell protection at December 31, 2022.

Interest Rate Swap Contracts. An interest rate swap involves the agreement between counterparties to exchange periodic payments based on interest rates. One payment will be based on a floating rate of a specified interest rate while the other will be a fixed rate. Risks involve the future fluctuations of interest rates in which a Portfolio may make payments that are greater than what a Portfolio received from the counterparty. Other risks include credit, liquidity and market risk.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had entered into interest rate swaps in which they pay a floating interest rate and receive a fixed interest rate (“Long interest rate swap”) in order to increase exposure to interest rate risk. Average notional amount on long interest rate swaps for BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond was $37,589,520.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had entered into interest rate swaps in which they pay a fixed interest rate and receives a floating interest rate (“Short interest rate swap”) in order to decrease exposure to interest rate risk. Average notional

amount on short interest rate swaps for BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond was $63,878,954.

The Portfolios enter into interest rate swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures and to substitute for physical fixed-income securities. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond for open interest rate swaps at December 31, 2022.

At December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond pledged $3,341,000 in cash collateral for open centrally cleared swaps.

Inflation-linked Swap Contracts. In an inflation-linked swap, one party pays a fixed interest rate on a notional amount while the other party pays a floating rate linked to an inflation index on that same notional amount. The party paying the floating rate pays the inflation adjusted rate multiplied by the notional amount.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had entered into inflation-linked swaps in which they pay a floating rate linked to an inflation index and receive a fixed interest rate (“Long inflation-linked swap”). Average notional amount on long inflation-linked swaps for BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond was $10,942,953.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond had entered into inflation-linked swaps in which it pays a fixed interest rate and receives a floating rate linked to an inflation index (“Short inflation-linked swap”). Average notional amount on short inflation linked-bonds was $190,309,200.

BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond used inflation-linked swaps as part of their inflation strategy. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond for open inflation-linked swaps at December 31, 2022.

L.  Inflation-Indexed Bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. If the index measuring inflation rises or falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted upward or downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a larger or smaller principal amount) will be increased or reduced, respectively. Any upward or downward adjustment in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included in interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case

of US Treasury inflation-indexed bonds. For bonds that do not provide a similar guarantee, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.

M. Securities Lending. Each Portfolio may temporarily loan up to 33 1/3% of its total assets to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender’s fee. Securities lending involves two primary risks: “investment risk” and “borrower default risk.” When lending securities, the Portfolios will receive cash or U.S. government securities as collateral. Investment risk is the risk that the Portfolios will lose money from the investment of the cash collateral received from the borrower. Borrower default risk is the risk that the Portfolios will lose money due to the failure of a borrower to return a borrowed security. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Portfolios. Securities lending may result in leverage. The use of leverage may exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV, causing the Portfolios to be more volatile. The use of leverage may increase expenses and increase the impact of the Portfolios’ other risks.

N.  Sales Commitments. Sales commitments involve commitments to sell fixed income securities where the unit price and the estimated principal amount are established upon entering into the contract, with the actual principal amount being within a specified range of the estimate. A Portfolio will enter into sale commitments to hedge its portfolio positions or to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed delivery arrangements. Proceeds of sale commitments are not received until the contractual settlement date. During the time a sale commitment is outstanding, except for delayed delivery transactions, the Portfolio will maintain, in a segregated account, cash or marketable securities in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. Unsettled sale commitments are valued at current market value of the underlying securities. If the sale commitment is closed through the acquisition of an offsetting purchase commitment, the Portfolio realizes a gain or loss on the commitment without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security. If the Portfolio delivers securities under the commitment, the Portfolio realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the securities, based upon the unit price established at the date the commitment was entered into. Please refer to the table following the Portfolio of Investments for open sales commitments held by BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond at December 31, 2022.

O.  Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Portfolios may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. The Trusts’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that


22



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

may be made against the Portfolios and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, management considers the risk of loss from such claims remote.

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES

The Portfolios have entered into investment management agreements (“Management Agreements”) with the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser has overall responsibility for the management of the Portfolios. The Investment Adviser oversees all investment management and portfolio management services for the Portfolios and assists in managing and supervising all aspects of the general day-to-day business activities and operations of the Portfolios, including custodial, transfer agency, dividend disbursing, accounting, auditing, compliance and related services. Each Management Agreement compensates the Investment Adviser with a management fee, computed daily and payable monthly, based on the average daily net assets of each Portfolio, at the following annual rates:

Portfolio   Fee
BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond(1)
   
0.55% on the first $200 million;
0.50% on the next $800 million; and
0.40% thereafter
Bond Portfolio
   
0.50% on the first $750 million; and
0.48% thereafter
 
(1)
  The Investment Adviser has contractually agreed to waive 0.05% of the management fee. Any fees waived or reimbursed are not eligible for recoupment. Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board.

The Investment Adviser has entered into sub-advisory agreements with each sub-adviser. These sub-advisers provide investment advice for the Portfolios and are paid by the Investment Adviser based on the average daily net assets of each Portfolio. Subject to such policies as the Board or the Investment Adviser may determine, the sub-advisers manage each Portfolio’s assets in accordance

with that Portfolio’s investment objectives, policies, and limitations.

NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEE

Voya Investors Trust has entered into a shareholder service plan (the “Plan”) for the Class S shares of BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond. The Plan compensates the Distributor for the provision of shareholder services and/or account maintenance services to direct or indirect beneficial owners of Class S shares. Under the Plan, the Portfolio makes payments to the Distributor at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class S shares.

Class ADV shares of BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond have a shareholder service and distribution plan. The Portfolio pays the Distributor a shareholder service fee of 0.25% and a distribution fee of 0.35% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class ADV shares.

NOTE 6 — OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES

At December 31, 2022, the following direct or indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Voya Financial, Inc. or affiliated investment companies owned more than 5% of the following Portfolios:

Subsidiary/Affiliated

The Portfolios have adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “DC Plan”), which allows eligible independent trustees, as described in the DC Plan, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the trustees’ fees that they are entitled to receive from the Portfolios. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the trustee under the DC Plan, the amounts deferred are invested in shares of the funds selected by the trustee (the “Notional Funds”). When the Portfolios purchase shares of the Notional Funds, which are all advised by Voya Investments, in amounts equal to the trustees’ deferred fees, this results in a Portfolio asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets,


23



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 6 — OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES (continued)

if applicable, are included as a component of “Other assets” on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the DC Plan will not affect net assets of the Portfolios, and will not materially affect a Portfolio’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the DC Plan.

The Portfolios may pay per account fees to affiliates of Voya Investments for recordkeeping services provided on certain assets. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the per account fees for affiliated recordkeeping services paid by each Portfolio were as follows:

Portfolio   Amount
BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond
      $ 74,098
Bond Portfolio
        

NOTE 7 — EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENTS

The Investment Adviser has entered into written expense limitation agreements (“Expense Limitation Agreements”) with the below Portfolios, whereby the Investment Adviser has agreed to limit expenses, excluding interest, taxes, investment-related costs, leverage expenses, extraordinary expenses, and acquired fund fees and expenses to the levels listed below:

Portfolio   Maximum Operating Expense Limit
(as a percentage of net assets)
BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond
   
Class ADV: 1.23%
Class I: 0.63%
Class S: 0.88%
Bond Portfolio
   
0.58%

With the exception of the non-recoupable management fee waiver for BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond, the Investment Adviser may, at a later date, recoup from a Portfolio for fees waived and/or other expenses reimbursed by the Investment Adviser during the previous 36 months, but only if, after such recoupment, a Portfolio’s expense ratio does not exceed the percentage described above. Waived and reimbursed fees net of any recoupment by the Investment Adviser of such waived and reimbursed fees are reflected on the accompanying Statements of

Operations. Amounts payable by the Investment Adviser are reflected on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

The Expense Limitation Agreements are contractual through May 1, 2023 and shall renew automatically for one-year terms. Termination or modification of these obligations requires approval by the Board.

NOTE 8 — LINE OF CREDIT

Effective June 13, 2022, the Portfolios, in addition to certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser, entered into a 364-day unsecured committed revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”) for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 through June 12, 2023. The proceeds may be used only to finance temporarily: (1) the purchase or sale of investment securities; or (2) the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Portfolio or certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser. The funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount payable quarterly in arrears. Prior to June 13, 2022, the predecessor line of credit was for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 and the funds to which the line of credit was available paid a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount through June 13, 2022.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the federal funds rate plus a specified margin. Repayments generally must be made within 60 days after the date of a revolving credit advance.

NOTE 10 — SECURITIES LENDING

Under an agreement with BNY, the Portfolios can lend its securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. government securities. The collateral must be equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at Market Close of a Portfolio at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded and any additional collateral is delivered to a Portfolio on the next business day. The cash collateral received is invested in approved investments as defined in the Securities Lending Agreement with BNY (the “Agreement”). The Portfolios bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral with the following exception: BNY provides the Portfolios indemnification from loss with respect to the investment of collateral to the extent the cash collateral is invested in overnight repurchase agreements.

Cash collateral received in connection with securities lending is invested in cash equivalents, money market funds, repurchase agreements with maturities of not more than 99 days that are collateralized with U.S. Government securities, or certain short-term investments that have a

remaining maturity of 190 days or less (“Permitted Investments”). Short-term investments include: securities, units, shares or other participations in short-term investment funds, pools or trusts; commercial paper, notes, bonds or other debt obligations, certificates of deposit, time deposits and other bank obligations and asset-backed commercial paper backed by diversified receivables and repurchase-backed programs. Permitted Investments are subject to certain guidelines established by the Adviser regarding liquidity, diversification, credit quality and average credit life/duration requirements. The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Portfolio of Investments under Short-Term Investments.

Generally, in the event of counterparty default, a Portfolio has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security; however, there would be a potential loss to a Portfolio in the event a Portfolio is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a portfolio.

At December 31, 2022, the Portfolios did not have any outstanding securities on loan.


NOTE 11 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of foreign currency transactions, futures contracts, paydowns, capital loss carryforwards, straddle loss deferrals and wash sale deferrals. Distributions in excess of net investment income and/or net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.

The Portfolios’ major tax jurisdictions are U.S. federal, Arizona state, and Massachusetts state (BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond).

As of December 31, 2022, no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolios’ financial statements as a result of tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for open tax years. The Portfolios’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue. Generally, the preceding four tax years remain subject to examination by these jurisdictions.

NOTE 12 — LONDON INTERBANK OFFERED RATE (“LIBOR”)

In 2017, the UK Financial Conduct Authority announced its intention to cease compelling banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR after 2021. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of LIBOR, stated that non-U.S. dollar LIBOR reference rates and the one-week and two-month LIBOR reference rates ceased to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after December 31, 2021 and the remaining more commonly used LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after June 30, 2023. In addition, global regulators have announced that, with limited exceptions, no new LIBOR-based contracts should be entered into after 2021. Actions by regulators have resulted in the establishment of alternative reference rates to LIBOR in most major currencies (e.g., the Secured Overnight Financing Rate for U.S. Dollar LIBOR and the Sterling Overnight Interbank Average Rate for Sterling LIBOR).

Discontinuance of LIBOR and adoption/implementation of alternative rates pose a number of risks, including among

others whether any substitute rate will experience the market participation and liquidity necessary to provide a workable substitute for LIBOR; the effect on parties’ existing contractual arrangements, hedging transactions, and investment strategies generally from a conversion from LIBOR to alternative rates; the effect on a Portfolio’s existing investments (including, for example, fixed-income investments, senior loans, CLOs and CDOs, and derivatives transactions), including the possibility that some of those investments may terminate or their terms may be adjusted to the disadvantage of a Portfolio; and the risk of general market disruption during the period of the conversion. It is difficult to predict at this time the likely impact of the transition away from LIBOR on a Portfolio.

NOTE 13 — MARKET DISRUPTION

A Portfolio is subject to the risk that geopolitical events will disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets. Due to the increasing interdependence among global economies and markets, conditions in one country, market, or region might adversely impact markets, issuers and/or foreign


26



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 13 — MARKET DISRUPTION (continued)

exchange rates in other countries, including the U.S.. Wars, terrorism, global health crises and pandemics, and other geopolitical events that have led, and in the future may continue to lead, to increased market volatility and may have adverse short- or long-term effects on U.S. and global economies and markets generally. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in significant market volatility, exchange suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, supply chain disruptions, and a substantial economic downturn in economies throughout the world. Natural and environmental disasters and systemic market dislocations are also highly disruptive to economies and markets. In addition, military action by Russia in Ukraine has, and may continue to, adversely affect global energy and financial markets and therefore could affect the value of a Portfolio’s investments, including beyond a Portfolio’s direct exposure to Russian issuers or

nearby geographic regions. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict and could be substantial. Those events as well as other changes in foreign (non-U.S.) and domestic economic, social, and political conditions also could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the Portfolio’s investments. Any of these occurrences could disrupt the operations of a Portfolio and of the Portfolio’s service providers.

NOTE 14 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Portfolios have evaluated events occurring after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date through the date that the financial statements were issued (“subsequent events”) to determine whether any subsequent events necessitated adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements. No such subsequent events were identified.

  Trustees serve until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The tenure of each Trustee who is not an “interested person” as defined in the 1940 Act, of each Portfolio (“Independent Trustee”) is subject to the Board’s retirement policy which states that each duly elected or appointed Independent Trustee shall retire from and cease to be a member of the Board of Trustees at the close of business on December 31 of the calendar year in which the Independent Trustee attains the age of 75. A majority vote of the Board’s other Independent Trustees may extend the retirement date of an Independent Trustee if the retirement would trigger a requirement to hold a meeting of shareholders of the Trust under applicable law, whether for the purposes of appointing a successor to the Independent Trustee or otherwise comply under applicable law, in which case the extension would apply until such time as the shareholder meeting can be held or is no longer required (as determined by a vote of a majority of the other Independent Trustees).

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited)

BOARD CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CONTRACT AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT

At a meeting held on November 17, 2022, the Boards of Trustees (“Board”) of Voya Investors Trust (“VIT”) and Voya Variable Insurance Trust (“VVIT,” and together with VIT, the “Trusts”), including a majority of the Board members who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment management, sub-advisory and sub-sub-advisory contracts, and who are not “interested persons” of VY® BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio (“BlackRock Portfolio”), a series of VIT, and VY® BrandywineGLOBAL — Bond Portfolio, a series of VVIT (together, the “Portfolios”), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the renewal of the investment management contracts (the “Management Contracts”) between Voya Investments, LLC (the “Manager”) and the Trusts, on behalf of the Portfolios; the sub-advisory contracts (the “Sub-Advisory Contracts”) with BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. and Brandywine Global Investment Management, LLC, the respective sub-advisers to each Portfolio (the “Sub-Advisers”); and the sub-sub-advisory contract (the “Sub-Sub-Advisory Contract,” and together with the Management Contracts and Sub-Advisory Contracts, the “Contracts”) with BlackRock International Limited, the sub-sub-adviser to BlackRock Portfolio (the “Sub-Sub-Adviser”), for an additional one-year period ending November 30, 2023.

In addition to the Board meeting on November 17, 2022, the Independent Trustees also held meetings outside the presence of representatives of the Manager, Sub-Advisers, or Sub-Sub-Adviser (collectively, such persons are referred to herein as “management”) on October 12-13, 2022, and November 15, 2022. At those meetings, the Board members reviewed and considered materials related to the proposed continuance of the Contracts that they had requested and believed to be relevant to the renewal of the Contracts in light of their own business judgment and the legal advice furnished to them by K&L Gates LLP, their independent legal counsel. The Board also considered information furnished to it throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees, including information regarding performance, expenses, and other relevant matters. While the Board considered the renewal of the management contracts, sub-advisory contracts and sub-sub-advisory contracts for all of the applicable investment companies in the Voya family of funds at the same meetings, the Board considered each Voya fund’s investment management, sub-advisory, and sub-sub-advisory relationships separately.

The Board has established a Contracts Committee and two Investment Review Committees (the “IRCs”), each of which includes only Independent Trustees as members. The Contracts Committee meets several times throughout the year to provide oversight with respect to the management, sub-advisory, and sub-sub-advisory contracts approval and renewal process for the Voya funds, among other functions, and each IRC meets several times throughout the year with respect to each Voya fund (assigned to that IRC) to provide oversight regarding the investment performance of the sub-advisers and sub-sub-advisers, as well as the Manager’s role in monitoring the sub-advisers and sub-sub-advisers.

The Contracts Committee oversees, and annually recommends Board approval of updates to, a methodology guide for the Voya funds (“Methodology Guide”), which sets out a framework pursuant to which the Independent Trustees request, and management provides, certain information that the Independent Trustees deem to be important or potentially relevant to the contracts renewal process for the Voya funds. The Independent Trustees retain the services of an independent consultant with experience in the mutual fund industry to assist the Contracts Committee in developing and recommending to the Board: (1) a selected peer group of investment companies for each Portfolio (“Selected Peer Group”) based on that Portfolio’s particular attributes, such as fund type and size, fund category (as determined by Morningstar, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data (“Morningstar”)), sales channels and structure and the Portfolio share class being compared to the Selected Peer Group; and (2) updates to the Methodology Guide with respect to the content and format of various data prepared in connection with the renewal process, including, but not limited to, investment performance, fee structure, and expense information. In addition, the Independent Trustees periodically have retained an independent firm to test and verify the accuracy of certain information presented to the Board for a representative sample of the Voya funds.

The Manager, the Sub-Advisers, or the Sub-Sub-Adviser may not have been able to, or opted not to, provide information in response to certain information requests, in which case the Board conducted its evaluation based on the information that was provided. In such cases, the Board determined that the omission of any such information was not material to its considerations. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of the Manager, Sub-Advisers, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser.

Provided below is an overview of certain material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding the


54



ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)

renewal of the Contracts and the compensation to be paid thereunder. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was most relevant to its consideration.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Manager oversees, subject to the authority of the Board, and is responsible for the provision of, all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Portfolios, but may delegate certain of these responsibilities to one or more sub-advisers and their sub-sub-advisers. In addition, the Manager provides administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Portfolios as set forth in the Management Contracts, including oversight of the Portfolios’ operations and risk management and the oversight of their various other service providers.

The Board considered the “manager-of-managers” structure of the Voya funds that has been developed by the Manager pursuant to which the Manager selects, subject to the Board’s approval, sub-advisers and their sub-sub-advisers, if any, to provide day-to-day management services to all or a portion of each Voya fund. The Board recognized that the Manager is responsible for monitoring the Sub-Advisers’ and Sub-Sub-Adviser’s investment programs, performance, developments, ongoing operations, and compliance with applicable regulations and investment policies and restrictions with respect to the Portfolios under this manager-of-managers arrangement. The Board also considered the techniques and resources that the Manager has developed to provide this ongoing due diligence and oversight with respect to the sub-advisers and sub-sub-advisers and to recommend appropriate changes in investment strategies, sub-advisers, sub-sub-advisers, or allocation among sub-advisers in an effort to improve a Voya fund’s performance. In connection with the Manager’s performance of these duties, the Board considered that the Manager has developed an oversight process formulated by its Manager Research & Selection Group that reviews, among other matters, performance data, each Sub-Adviser’s and the Sub-Sub-Adviser’s management team, portfolio data and attribution analysis related to each Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Sub-Adviser through various means, including, but not limited to, in-person meetings, on-site or virtual visits, and telephonic meetings with each Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Sub-Adviser.

Further, the Board considered periodic compliance reports it receives from the Trusts’ Chief Compliance Officer evaluating, among other related matters, whether the regulatory compliance systems and procedures of the Manager, Sub-Advisers, and Sub-Sub-Adviser are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the federal securities laws and whether the investment policies and

restrictions for each Portfolio are complied with on a consistent basis.

The Board considered the portfolio management team assigned by the Sub-Advisers and the Sub-Sub-Adviser to the Portfolios and the level of resources committed to the Portfolios (and other relevant funds in the Voya funds) by the Manager, Sub-Advisers, and Sub-Sub-Adviser, and whether those resources are sufficient to provide high-quality services to the Portfolios.

Based on their deliberations and the materials presented to them, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the overall services provided by the Manager, each Sub-Adviser, and the Sub-Sub-Adviser under the Contracts were appropriate.

Portfolio Performance

In assessing the investment management, sub-advisory, and sub-sub-advisory relationships, the Board placed emphasis on the investment returns of each Portfolio, including its investment performance over certain time periods compared to the Portfolio’s Morningstar category and primary benchmark, a broad-based securities market index identified in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Board also considered information from the Manager Research & Selection Group and received reports summarizing a separate analysis of each Portfolio’s performance and risk, including risk-adjusted investment return information, from the Trusts’ Chief Investment Risk Officer.

Economies of Scale

When evaluating the reasonableness of the management fee schedules, the Board considered whether economies of scale have been or likely will be realized by the Manager, Sub-Advisers, and Sub-Sub-Adviser as a Portfolio grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are shared with the Portfolio. In this regard, the Board noted any breakpoints in the management fee schedules that will result in a lower management fee rate when a Portfolio achieves sufficient asset levels to receive a breakpoint discount. The Board also considered that, in addition to the management fee breakpoints, the Portfolios have fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale realized by the Manager, Sub-Advisers, or Sub-Sub-Adviser could be shared with each Portfolio through such fee waivers, expense reimbursements or other expense reductions. In evaluating these matters, the Board also considered periodic management reports, Selected Peer Group comparisons, and industry information regarding economies of scale. In the case of sub-advisory or sub-sub-advisory fees, the Board considered that breakpoints, if any, would inure to the benefit of the Manager or relevant Sub-Adviser, respectively.


55



ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)

Information Regarding Services, Performance, and Fee Schedules Offered to Other Clients

The Board considered comparative information regarding the nature of services, performance, and fee schedules offered by the Manager, Sub-Advisers, and Sub-Sub-Adviser to other clients with similar investment objectives, if applicable, including other registered investment companies and relevant institutional accounts. When the fee schedules offered to or the performance of such other clients differed materially from a Portfolio, the Board took into account the underlying rationale provided by the Manager, Sub-Advisers, or Sub-Sub-Adviser, as applicable, for these differences. For the non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers and Sub-Sub-Adviser, the Board viewed the information related to any material differences in the fee schedules as not being a key factor in its deliberations because of the arm’s-length nature of negotiations between the Manager and non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers and the Sub-Sub-Adviser with respect to sub-advisory and sub-sub-advisory fee schedules, that the Manager is responsible for paying the fees of the Sub-Advisers and that the applicable Sub-Adviser is responsible for paying the fees of the Sub-Sub-Adviser.

Fee Schedules, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits

The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee schedule and net management fee rate payable by each Portfolio to the Manager compared to the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group. The Board also considered the compensation payable by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services for each Portfolio, including the portion of the contractual and net management fee rates that are paid to each Sub-Adviser, as compared to the compensation paid to the Manager, and the contractual sub-sub-advisory fee schedule payable to the Sub-Sub-Adviser by the relevant Sub-Adviser. In this regard, the Board considered that the Sub-Sub-Adviser is compensated by its relevant Sub-Adviser and not the Manager. In addition, the Board considered any fee waivers, expense limitations, and recoupment arrangements that apply to the fees payable by the Portfolios, including whether the Manager intends to propose any changes thereto. For each Portfolio, the Board separately determined that the fees payable to the Manager and the fee schedule payable to each Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Sub-Adviser are reasonable for the services that each performs, which were considered in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services that each has performed and is expected to perform.

For each Portfolio, the Board considered information on revenues, costs and profits or losses realized by the Manager related to its services to the Portfolio. In analyzing the profitability of the Manager and its affiliates in connection with services they render to a Portfolio, the

Board took into account the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Manager to each Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered the profitability of the Manager attributable to servicing each Portfolio both with and without taking into account the profitability of the distributor of the Portfolios and any revenue sharing payments made by the Manager. The Board did not request profitability data from the Sub-Advisers and the Sub-Sub-Adviser, which are not affiliated with the Manager because the Board did not view this data as a key factor to its deliberations given the arm’s-length nature of the relationship between the Manager and these non-Voya-affiliated Sub-Advisers and Sub-Sub-Adviser with respect to the negotiation of sub-advisory and sub-sub-advisory fee schedules. In addition, the Board noted that non-Voya-affiliated sub-advisers or sub-sub-advisers may not account for their profits on an account-by-account basis and those that do often employ different methodologies in connection with these calculations.

Although the Methodology Guide establishes a framework for profit calculation, the Board recognized that there is no uniform methodology within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose. The Board also recognized that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to dramatically different reported profit and loss results with respect to the Manager, as well as other industry participants with whom the profits of the Manager could be compared. In addition, the Board recognized that management’s calculations regarding its costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the Portfolios’ operations may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to each Portfolio in determining profitability. The Board also recognized that the information presented may not portray all of the costs borne by the Manager or reflect all of the risks associated with offering and managing a mutual fund complex in the current regulatory and market environment, including entrepreneurial, regulatory, legal and operational risks.

The Board also considered that the Manager is entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that it provides to the Portfolios. The Board also considered information regarding the potential fall-out benefits to the Manager, Sub-Advisers, and Sub-Sub-Adviser and their respective affiliates from their association with the Portfolios, including their ability to engage in soft-dollar transactions on behalf of the Portfolios. Following its reviews, the Board determined that the Manager’s profitability with respect to its services to the Portfolios and the Manager’s, Sub-Advisers’ and Sub-Sub-Adviser’s potential fall-out benefits were not unreasonable.

Portfolio-by-Portfolio Analysis

Set forth below are certain of the specific factors that the Board considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)

in relation to approving each Portfolio’s Contracts and the conclusions reached by the Board. These specific factors are in addition to those considerations discussed above. In each case, the Portfolio’s performance was compared to its Morningstar category, as well as its primary benchmark. The performance data provided to the Board primarily was for various periods ended March 31, 2022. In addition, the Board also considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings certain additional data regarding each Portfolio’s more recent performance, asset levels and asset flows. Each Portfolio’s management fee rate and expense ratio were compared to the management fee rates and expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. With respect to the quintile rankings noted below, the first quintile represents the range of funds with the highest performance or the lowest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable, and the fifth quintile represents the range of funds with the lowest performance or the highest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable.

VY® BlackRock Inflation Protected Bond Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for BlackRock Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the third quintile of its Morningstar category for the three-year, five-year and ten-year periods, the fourth quintile for the one-year period, and the fifth quintile for the year-to-date period; and (2) the Portfolio underperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented. In analyzing this performance data, the Board took into account management’s representations regarding the competitiveness of the Portfolio’s performance during certain periods.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the economies of scale benefits to the Portfolio and its shareholders from breakpoint discounts applicable to the Portfolio’s management fee rate, which result in lower fees at higher asset levels; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the third quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fourth quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the net expense ratio for the Portfolio is ranked in the third quintile of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account management’s

representations regarding the competitiveness of the Portfolio’s management fee rate and net expense ratio.

VY® BrandywineGLOBAL — Bond Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for VY® BrandywineGLOBAL — Bond Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of its Morningstar category for the year-to-date, one-year, three-year and five-year periods; and (2) the Portfolio outperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a breakpoint fee schedule where the asset level necessary to achieve a breakpoint discount had not been reached by the Portfolio; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fourth quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the second quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the net expense ratio for the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account management’s representations regarding the competitiveness of the Portfolio’s management fee rate and net expense ratio.

Board Conclusions

After its deliberation, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Contracts are fair and reasonable to each Portfolio and that approval of the continuation of the Contracts is in the best interests of each Portfolio and its shareholders. In doing so, the Board reviewed all factors it considered to be material, including those discussed above. Within the context of its overall conclusions regarding the Contracts, and based on the information provided and management’s related representations, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with management’s responses relating to each Portfolio’s investment performance and the fees payable under the Contracts. During this renewal process, each Board member may have accorded different weight to various factors in reaching his or her conclusions. Based on these conclusions and other factors, the Board voted to renew the Contracts for each Portfolio for the year ending November 30, 2023.

Voya Global Perspectives® Portfolio Portfolio Managers’ Report

Voya Global Perspectives® Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks total return. Under normal conditions, the sub-adviser invests the assets of the Portfolio in a combination of underlying funds (“Underlying Funds”) that in turn, invest directly in securities such as stocks and bonds. The Portfolio is managed by Douglas Coté, CFA Portfolio Manager of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.

Under normal market conditions, approximately 60% of the Portfolio’s net assets are allocated to Underlying Funds that invest predominantly in equity securities, and approximately 40% of the Portfolio’s net assets are allocated to Underlying Funds that invest predominantly in debt instruments. These approximate weights are referred to as target allocations (“Target Allocations”). Depending upon the rules-based investment strategy, the equity target allocation may drop to approximately 30% and the debt target allocation may rise to approximately 70% — such weightings are called “defensive allocations.” No adjustments to the Target Allocations or defensive allocations will be made between quarterly allocation dates.

Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of –17.66%, compared to the S&P Target Risk® Growth Index which returned –15.27%.

Portfolio Specifics: It was the worst year for US stocks since 2008 as the Federal Open Market Committee slammed the brakes on runaway inflation. But it was the 2022 bond market shock that shook the world with the worst bond bear market since the Volker Era, worse than the Great Bond Massacre of 1994. The pain inflicted was widespread as US Treasuries, high-grade corporates, global bonds and high-yield bonds all experienced double-digit losses. In other words, there was no place to hide in 2022. The S&P 500’s –18.1% nearly matched the MSCI Emerging Market’s –19.7% return. The S&P Midcap and S&P Small cap stocks fell –13.1% and –16.1% respectively. The worst performing equity was Global REITs at –24.4%. US Treasury of more than 20-year bonds returned –31.1%; US Corporate Investment Grade returned –15.8%; Global Bonds returned –16.2%, and the best-performing category was surprisingly High-Yield bonds, returning –11.2%. The CBOE Volatility Index closed at 21.7% and the S&P GCSI Commodity Index was up 26%, led by the S&P GCSI energy sector, up more than 42.3% for the year.

Performance of the Portfolio was negative for the period and underperformed its benchmark.

Underperformance was due to overall fund selection primarily in equities. During the period, the Portfolio was positioned at its “Base” allocation, consistent with the investment model’s positive tactical signal based on positive S&P 500 earnings growth; the weights across the underlying funds were almost equal weighted.

Within the equity sleeve, the Portfolio underperformed primarily due to its positioning in non-benchmark VY® CBRE Global Real Estate Portfolio and in the Voya Midcap Opportunities Portfolio as its growth tilt significantly underperformed midcap value and core. Within the fixed income sleeve, the Portfolio also underperformed due again to its underlying fund selection primarily in the Voya Investment Grade Credit Fund and Voya Global Bond Fund.

Current Strategy and Outlook: In our view, the Fed — as both solution and problem — is walking a tight rope, and it is very important for it not to waiver. Markets are expecting a steady Fed hand and, in our opinion, it must deliver on taper and rate increases, or the consequences could be devastating. This may seem counterintuitive that the market would want a “tightening” posture from the Fed. We believe the reason is the fear of inflation, not in goods but in the market, which is creating identifiable imbalances, raising risks of a far more severe correction if not reined in. Therefore, we believe the primary risk is unabated inflation, and the primary strength is the ongoing economic boom.

Our outlook is predicated on the tug of war between a hawkish US Federal Reserve and a resilient private economy. The “Fed put” has expired — for the first time in 20 years, the markets are on their own, without the safety net that the Fed will step in and backstop investors’ overzealous risk-taking. The good news is that headline inflation continues to drop but the bad news is that we believe it is not likely to deter the Fed from its aggressive rate hikes and reduction of its balance sheet.

The Portfolio ended 2022 positioned at their base allocation, fully invested consistent with the Portfolio’s investment model positive tactical signal based on positive earnings growth for the S&P 500. Should quarterly corporate earnings growth have a decline compared to its same quarter a year ago positioning would move to “defensive” allocations.

 

The views expressed in this commentary are informed opinions. They should not be considered promises or advice. The views expressed reflect those of the portfolio managers, only through the end of the period as stated on the cover. The portfolio managers’ views are subject to change at any time based on market and other conditions.

Portfolio holdings and characteristics are subject to change and may not be representative of current holdings and characteristics. Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily. The outlook for this Portfolio may differ from that presented for other Voya mutual funds. This report contains statements that may be “forward-looking” statements. Actual results may differ materially from those projected in the “forward-looking” statements. The Portfolio’s performance returns shown reflect applicable fee waivers and/or expense limits in effect during this period. Absent such fee waivers/expense limitations, if any, performance would have been lower. Performance for the different classes of shares will vary based on differences in fees associated with each class. An index has no cash in its portfolio and imposes no sales charges. An investor cannot invest directly in an index.

Based on a $10,000 initial investment, the graph and table above illustrate the total return of the Voya Global Perspectives® Portfolio against the index indicated. An index is unmanaged and has no cash in its portfolio and imposes no sales charges. An investor cannot invest directly in an index.

The Portfolio’s performance is shown without the imposition of any expenses or charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy. Total returns would have been lower if such expenses or charges were included.

The performance graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder will pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.

The performance shown includes, if applicable, the effect of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Investment Adviser and/or other

service providers, which have the effect of increasing total return. Had all fees and expenses been considered, the total returns would have been lower.

The performance update illustrates performance for a variable investment option available through a variable annuity contract or a variable life insurance policy. The performance shown indicates past performance and is not a projection or prediction of future results. Actual investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that shares and/or units, at redemption, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Please log on to www.voyainvestments.com or call (800) 366-0066 to get performance through the most recent month end.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLE (UNAUDITED)

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Portfolio expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The Portfolio’s expenses are shown without the imposition of any charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract, variable life insurance policy, qualified pension, or retirement plan. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.

Actual Expenses

The left section of the table shown below, “Actual Portfolio Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The right section of the table shown below, “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of Voya Global Perspectives® Portfolio and the Board of Trustees
of Voya Investors Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Voya Global Perspectives® Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) (one of the portfolios constituting Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”)), including the portfolio of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting Voya Investors Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The financial highlights for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated February 26, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolio’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 Trust 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 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. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such 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 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers and others, we performed other auditing procedures. 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more Voya investment companies since 2019.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION

Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on August 3, 1988. The Trust consists of twenty-one active separate investment series. The series included in this report is Voya Global Perspectives® Portfolio (“Global Perspectives” or the “Portfolio”), a diversified series of the Trust. The investment objective of the Portfolio is described in the Portfolio’s Prospectus.

The classes of shares included in this report are: Adviser (“Class ADV”), Institutional (“Class I”) and Service (“Class S”). With the exception of class specific matters, each class has equal voting rights as to voting privileges. For class specific proposals, only the applicable class would have voting privileges. The classes differ principally in the applicable distribution and shareholder service fees, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses, if any. Generally, shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders are allocated the common expenses of a portfolio and earn income and realized gains/losses from a portfolio pro rata based on the daily ending net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses that are specific to a portfolio or a class are charged directly to that portfolio or class. Other operating expenses shared by several portfolios are generally allocated among those portfolios based on average net assets. Distributions are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocated to each class. Realized gain distributions are allocated to each class pro rata based on the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder service fees, if any, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses between the separate classes, if any.

Voya Investments, LLC (“Voya Investments” or the “Investment Adviser”), an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the Investment Adviser to the Portfolio. Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM” or the “Sub-Adviser”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the Sub-Adviser to the Portfolio. Voya Investments Distributor, LLC (“VID” or the “Distributor”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the principal underwriter to the Portfolio.

The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in affiliated investment companies that, in turn, invest directly in a wide range of portfolio securities (i.e.,

stocks and bonds). The investment companies in which the Portfolio invests are collectively referred to as the “Underlying Funds.”

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements. The Portfolio is considered an investment company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A.  Security Valuation. The Portfolio is open for business every day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) opens for regular trading (each such day, a “Business Day”). The net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of the Portfolio is determined each Business Day as of the close of the regular trading session (“Market Close”), as determined by the Consolidated Tape Association (“CTA”), the central distributor of transaction prices for exchange-traded securities (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time unless otherwise designated by the CTA). The NAV per share of each class of the Portfolio is calculated by taking the value of the Portfolio’s assets attributable to that class, subtracting the Portfolio’s liabilities attributable to that class, and dividing by the number of shares of that class that are outstanding. On days when the Portfolio is closed for business, Portfolio shares will not be priced and the Portfolio does not transact purchase and redemption orders. To the extent the Portfolio’s assets are traded in other markets on days when the Portfolio does not price its shares, the value of the Portfolio’s assets will likely change and you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of the Portfolio.

Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. Investments in open-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day NAV per share. The prospectuses of the open-end registered investment companies in which the Portfolio may invest explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing. Foreign securities’ prices are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of Market Close.

When a market quotation for a portfolio security is not readily available or is deemed unreliable (for example when trading has been halted or there are unexpected market closures or other material events that would suggest that the market quotation is unreliable) and for purposes of determining the value of other Portfolio assets, the asset is priced at its fair value. The Board has designated the Investment Adviser, as the valuation


10



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

designee, to make fair value determinations in good faith. In determining the fair value of the Portfolio’s assets, the Investment Adviser, pursuant to its fair valuation policy, may consider inputs from pricing service providers, broker-dealers, or the Portfolio’s sub-adviser(s). Issuer specific events, transaction price, position size, nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of an asset’s fair value. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before Market Close, closing market quotations may become unreliable. The prices of foreign securities will generally be adjusted based on inputs from an independent pricing service that are intended to reflect valuation changes through the NYSE close. Because of the inherent uncertainties of fair valuation, the values used to determine the Portfolio’s NAV may materially differ from the value received upon actual sale of those investments. Thus, fair valuation may have an unintended dilutive or accretive effect on the value of shareholders’ investments in the Portfolio.

The Portfolio’s financial instruments are valued at the close of the NYSE and are reported at fair value, which GAAP defines as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Various valuation techniques and inputs are used to determine the fair value of financial instruments. GAAP establishes the following fair value hierarchy that categorizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments that the portfolio can access at the reporting date.

Level 2 — inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in inactive markets, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads).

Level 3 — unobservable inputs (including the portfolio’s own assumptions in determining fair value).

Observable inputs are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, and reflect the assumptions that market participants would use to price the financial instrument. Unobservable inputs are those for which market data are not available and are developed using the best information available about the assumptions that market participants would use to price the financial instrument. GAAP requires

valuation techniques to maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. When multiple inputs are used to derive fair value, the financial instrument is assigned to the level within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value of the financial instrument. Input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with financial instruments at that level but rather the degree of judgment used in determining those values.

A table summarizing the Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within the Portfolio of Investments.

Each investment asset or liability of the Portfolio is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” inputs other than quoted prices for an asset or liability that are observable are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Sub-Adviser’s or Pricing Committee’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality are generally considered to be Level 2 securities under applicable accounting rules. The Portfolio classifies each of its investments in the Underlying Funds as Level 1, without consideration as to the classification level of the specific investments held by the Underlying Funds. A table summarizing the Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within the Portfolio of Investments.

GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. A reconciliation of Level 3 investments within the Portfolio of Investments is presented only when the Portfolio has a significant amount of Level 3 investments.

B.  Securities Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income received from the Underlying Funds is recognized on the ex-dividend date and is recorded as dividends from underlying funds in the Statement of Operations. Capital gain distributions received from the Underlying Funds are recognized on the ex-dividend date and are recorded on the Statement of Operations as such. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold.


11



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

C.  Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Portfolio are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

    (1)
  Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at Market Close.
     
    (2)
  Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at Market Close, the Portfolio does not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding tax reclaims recorded on the Portfolio’s books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. The foregoing risks are even greater with respect to securities of issuers in emerging markets.

D.  Distributions to Shareholders. The Portfolio records distributions to its shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The Portfolio declares and pays dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, annually. The Portfolio may make

distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies.

E.  Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of the Portfolio to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and related excise tax provisions applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Portfolio’s tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until any capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized.

The Portfolio may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain.

F.  Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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.

G.  Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Portfolio and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, management considers the risk of loss from such claims remote.

NOTE 3 — INVESTMENTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the cost of purchases and the proceeds from the sales of the Underlying Funds were as follows:

Purchases   Sales
$17,296,885
   
$27,705,578

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES

The Portfolio has entered into an investment management agreement (“Management Agreement”) with the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser has overall responsibility for the management of the Portfolio. The Investment Adviser oversees all investment management


12



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES (continued)

and portfolio management services for the Portfolio and assists in managing and supervising all aspects of the general day-to-day business activities and operations of the Portfolio, including custodial, transfer agency, dividend disbursing, accounting, auditing, compliance and related services. This Management Agreement compensates the Investment Adviser with a management fee, computed daily and payable monthly, based on: 0.20% of average daily net assets invested in affiliated Underlying Funds and 0.40% of the average daily net assets invested in unaffiliated Underlying Funds and/or other direct investments.

The Investment Adviser has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with Voya IM. Voya IM provides investment advice for the Portfolio and is paid by the Investment Adviser based on the average daily net assets of the Portfolio. Subject to such policies as the Board or the Investment Adviser may determine, Voya IM manages the Portfolio’s assets in accordance with the Portfolio’s investment objectives, policies, and limitations.

NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES

The Trust has entered into a shareholder service plan (the “Agreement”) for the Class S shares of the Portfolio. The Agreement compensates the Distributor for the provision of shareholder services and/or account maintenance services to direct or indirect beneficial owners of Class S. Under the Agreement, the Portfolio makes payments to the Distributor at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class S shares.

Class ADV shares have a shareholder service and distribution plan. Class ADV shares pay a shareholder service fee of 0.25% and a distribution fee of 0.35% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class ADV shares. The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive 0.30% of the distribution fee for Class ADV shares of the Portfolio, so the actual fee paid by Class ADV shares is an annual rate of 0.05%. This waiver is not eligible for recoupment. Termination or modification of this waiver requires approval by the Board.

NOTE 6 — OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES

At December 31, 2022, the following direct or indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Voya Financial, Inc. owned more than 5% of the Portfolio:

Subsidiary     Percentage  
Voya Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company
    7.49%   

The Portfolio has adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “DC Plan”), which allows eligible independent trustees, as described in the DC Plan, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the trustees’ fees that they are entitled to receive from the Portfolio. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the trustee under the DC Plan, the amounts deferred are invested in shares of the funds selected by the trustee (the “Notional Funds”). When the Portfolio purchases shares of the Notional Funds, which are all advised by Voya Investments, in amounts equal to the trustees’ deferred fees, this results in a Portfolio asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets, if applicable, are included as a component of “Other assets” on the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the DC Plan will not affect net assets of the Portfolio, and will not materially affect the Portfolio’s assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the DC Plan.

The Portfolio may pay per account fees to affiliates of Voya Investments for recordkeeping services provided on certain assets. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the per account fees for affiliated recordkeeping services paid by the Portfolio were $11,147.

NOTE 7 — EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENTS

The Investment Adviser has entered into a written expense limitation agreement (“Expense Limitation Agreement”) with the Portfolio whereby the Investment Adviser has agreed to limit expenses, excluding interest, taxes, investment-related costs, leverage expenses, and extraordinary expenses to the levels listed below:

Class ADV(1)(2)     Class I(1)(2)     Class S(1)(2)
1.55%    0.95%    1.20%
 
(1)
The operating expense limits shown take into account the operating expenses incurred at the Underlying Fund level. The amount of fees and expenses of an Underlying Fund borne by the Portfolio will vary based on the Portfolio’s allocation of assets to, and the net expenses of, a particular Underlying Fund.
   
(2)
Pursuant to a side letter through May 1, 2023, the total expense limits including the operating expenses incurred at the Underlying Fund level are 1.09%, 0.83% and 1.08% for Class ADV, Class I, and Class S, respectively. Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board.

The Investment Adviser may at a later date recoup from the Portfolio for fees waived and/or other expenses reimbursed by the Investment Adviser during the previous 36 months, but only if, after such recoupment, the Portfolio’s expense ratio does not exceed the percentage described above. Waived and reimbursed fees net of any recoupment by the Investment Adviser of such waived and reimbursed fees are reflected on the accompanying Statement of Operations. Amounts payable by the Investment Adviser

The Expense Limitation Agreement is contractual through May 1, 2023 and shall renew automatically for one-year terms. Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board.

NOTE 8 — LINE OF CREDIT

Effective June 13, 2022, the Portfolio, in addition to certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser, entered into a 364-day unsecured committed revolving line of credit

agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”) for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 through June 12, 2023. The proceeds may be used only to finance temporarily: (1) the purchase or sale of investment securities; or (2) the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Portfolio or certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser. The funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount payable quarterly in arrears. Prior to June 13, 2022, the predecessor line of credit was for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 and the funds to which the line of credit was available paid a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount through June 13, 2022.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the federal funds rate plus a specified margin. Repayments generally must be made within 60 days after the date of a revolving credit advance.

The Portfolio did not utilize the line of credit during the year ended December 31, 2022.

NOTE 10 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of short-term capital gains and wash sale deferrals.

Dividends paid by the Portfolio from net investment income and distributions of net realized short-term capital gains are, for federal income tax purposes, taxable as ordinary income to shareholders.

The tax composition of dividends and distributions to shareholders was as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

NOTE 10 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (continued)

At December 31, 2022, the Portfolio did not have any capital loss carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Portfolio’s major tax jurisdictions are U.S. federal, Arizona state, and Massachusetts state.

As of December 31, 2022, no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolio’s financial statements as a result of tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for open tax years. The Portfolio’s federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue. Generally, the preceding four tax years remain subject to examination by these jurisdictions.

NOTE 11 — LONDON INTERBANK OFFERED RATE (“LIBOR”)

In 2017, the UK Financial Conduct Authority announced its intention to cease compelling banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR after 2021. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of LIBOR, stated that non-U.S. dollar LIBOR reference rates and the one-week and two-month LIBOR reference rates ceased to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after December 31, 2021 and the remaining more commonly used LIBOR settings cease to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after June 30, 2023. In addition, global regulators have announced that, with limited exceptions, no new LIBOR-based contracts should be entered into after 2021. Actions by regulators have resulted in the establishment of alternative reference rates to LIBOR in most major currencies (e.g., the Secured Overnight Financing Rate for U.S. Dollar LIBOR and the Sterling Overnight Interbank Average Rate for Sterling LIBOR).

Discontinuance of LIBOR and adoption/implementation of alternative rates pose a number of risks, including among others whether any substitute rate will experience the market participation and liquidity necessary to provide a workable substitute for LIBOR; the effect on parties’ existing contractual arrangements, hedging transactions, and investment strategies generally from a conversion from LIBOR to alternative rates; the effect on the Portfolio’s existing investments (including, for example, fixed-income investments, senior loans, CLOs and CDOs, and derivatives transactions), including the possibility that some of those investments may terminate or their terms

may be adjusted to the disadvantage of the Portfolio; and the risk of general market disruption during the period of the conversion. It is difficult to predict at this time the likely impact of the transition away from LIBOR on the Portfolio.

NOTE 12 — MARKET DISRUPTION

The Portfolio is subject to the risk that geopolitical events will disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets. Due to the increasing interdependence among global economies and markets, conditions in one country, market, or region might adversely impact markets, issuers and/or foreign exchange rates in other countries, including the U.S.. Wars, terrorism, global health crises and pandemics, and other geopolitical events that have led, and in the future may continue to lead, to increased market volatility and may have adverse short- or long-term effects on U.S. and global economies and markets generally. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in significant market volatility, exchange suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, supply chain disruptions, and a substantial economic downturn in economies throughout the world. Natural and environmental disasters and systemic market dislocations are also highly disruptive to economies and markets. In addition, military action by Russia in Ukraine has, and may continue to, adversely affect global energy and financial markets and therefore could affect the value of the Portfolio’s investments, including beyond the Portfolio’s direct exposure to Russian issuers or nearby geographic regions. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict and could be substantial. Those events as well as other changes in foreign (non-U.S.) and domestic economic, social, and political conditions also could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the Portfolio’s investments. Any of these occurrences could disrupt the operations of the Portfolio and of the Portfolio’s service providers.

NOTE 13 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Portfolio has evaluated events occurring after the Statement of Assets and Liabilities date through the date that the financials statements were issued (“subsequent events”) to determine whether any subsequent events necessitated adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements. No such subsequent events were identified.

Of the ordinary distributions made during the year ended December 31, 2022, 5.76% qualifies for the dividends received deduction (DRD) available to corporate shareholders.

The Portfolio designates $4,731,374 of long-term capital gain distributions as 20% rate long-term capital gain dividends under Internal Revenue Code Section 852(b)(3)(C).

The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 allows qualified fund-of-funds to elect to pass through the ability to take foreign tax credits (or deductions) to the extent that foreign taxes are passed through from underlying funds. A qualified fund-of-funds is a regulated investment company that has at least 50% of the value of its total assets invested in other regulated investment companies at the end of each quarter of the taxable year. Pursuant to Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Portfolio designates the following amount as foreign taxes paid for the year ended December 31, 2022:

Creditable
Foreign
Taxes Paid
    Per Share
Amount
    Portion of Ordinary Income
Distribution Derived from

*    
The Portfolio listed above did not derive any income from ineligible foreign sources as defined under Section 901(j) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Foreign taxes paid or withheld must be included in taxable income with an offsetting deduction from gross income or as a credit for taxes paid to foreign governments. Shareholders are strongly advised to consult their own tax advisors regarding the appropriate treatment of foreign taxes paid.

Above figures may differ from those cited elsewhere in this report due to differences in the calculation of income and gains under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (book) purposes and Internal Revenue Service (tax) purposes.

Shareholders are strongly advised to consult their own tax advisers with respect to the tax consequences of their investments in the Portfolio. In January, shareholders, excluding corporate shareholders, receive an IRS 1099-DIV regarding the federal tax status of the dividends and distributions they received in the calendar year.

Trustees serve until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The tenure of each Trustee who is not an “interested person” as defined in the 1940 Act, of each Portfolio (“Independent Trustee”) is subject to the Board’s retirement policy which states that each duly elected or appointed Independent Trustee shall retire from and cease to be a member of the Board of Trustees at the close of business on December 31 of the calendar year in which the Independent Trustee attains the age of 75. A majority vote of the Board’s other Independent Trustees may extend the retirement date of an Independent Trustee if the retirement would trigger a requirement to hold a meeting of shareholders of the Trust under applicable law, whether for the purposes of appointing a successor to the Independent Trustee or otherwise comply under applicable law, in which case the extension would apply until such time as the shareholder meeting can be held or is no longer required (as determined by a vote of a majority of the other Independent Trustees).

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED)

BOARD CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CONTRACT AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT

At a meeting held on November 17, 2022, the Board of Trustees (“Board”) of Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”), including a majority of the Board members who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment management and sub-advisory contracts, and who are not “interested persons” of Voya Global Perspectives® Portfolio, a series of the Trust (the “Portfolio”), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the renewal of the investment management contract (the “Management Contract”) between Voya Investments, LLC (the “Manager”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Portfolio, and the sub-advisory contract (the “Sub-Advisory Contract,” and together with the Management Contract, the “Contracts”) with Voya Investment Management Co. LLC, the sub-adviser to the Portfolio (the “Sub-Adviser”), for an additional one-year period ending November 30, 2023.

In addition to the Board meeting on November 17, 2022, the Independent Trustees also held meetings outside the presence of representatives of the Manager and Sub-Adviser (collectively, such persons are referred to herein as “management”) on October 12-13, 2022, and November 15, 2022. At those meetings, the Board members reviewed and considered materials related to the proposed continuance of the Contracts that they had requested and believed to be relevant to the renewal of the Contracts in light of their own business judgment and the legal advice furnished to them by K&L Gates LLP, their independent legal counsel. The Board also considered information furnished to it throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees, including information regarding performance, expenses, and other relevant matters. While the Board considered the renewal of the management contracts and sub-advisory contracts for all of the applicable investment companies in the Voya family of funds at the same meetings, the Board considered each Voya fund’s investment management and sub-advisory relationships separately.

The Board has established a Contracts Committee and two Investment Review Committees (the “IRCs”), each of which includes only Independent Trustees as members. The Contracts Committee meets several times throughout the year to provide oversight with respect to the management and sub-advisory contracts approval and renewal process for the Voya funds, among other functions, and each IRC meets several times throughout the year with respect to each Voya fund (assigned to that IRC) to provide oversight regarding the investment performance of the sub-advisers, as well as the Manager’s role in monitoring the sub-advisers.

The Contracts Committee oversees, and annually recommends Board approval of updates to, a methodology guide for the Voya funds (“Methodology Guide”), which sets out a framework pursuant to which the Independent Trustees request, and management provides, certain information that the Independent Trustees deem to be important or potentially relevant to the contracts renewal process for the Voya funds. The Independent Trustees retain the services of an independent consultant with experience in the mutual fund industry to assist the Contracts Committee in developing and recommending to the Board: (1) a selected peer group of investment companies for the Portfolio (“Selected Peer Group”) based on the Portfolio’s particular attributes, such as fund type and size, fund category (as determined by Morningstar, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data (“Morningstar”)), sales channels and structure and the Portfolio share class being compared to the Selected Peer Group; and (2) updates to the Methodology Guide with respect to the content and format of various data prepared in connection with the renewal process, including, but not limited to, investment performance, fee structure, and expense information. In addition, the Independent Trustees periodically have retained an independent firm to test and verify the accuracy of certain information presented to the Board for a representative sample of the Voya funds.

The Manager or Sub-Adviser may not have been able to, or opted not to, provide information in response to certain information requests, in which case the Board conducted its evaluation based on the information that was provided. In such cases, the Board determined that the omission of any such information was not material to its considerations. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of the Manager and Sub-Adviser.

Provided below is an overview of certain material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding the renewal of the Contracts and the compensation to be paid thereunder. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was most relevant to its consideration.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Manager oversees, subject to the authority of the Board, and is responsible for the provision of, all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Portfolio, but may delegate certain of these responsibilities to one or more sub-advisers. In addition, the Manager provides administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Portfolio as set forth in the Management Contract, including oversight of the


22



ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

Portfolio’s operations and risk management and the oversight of its various other service providers.

The Board considered the “manager-of-managers” structure of the Voya funds that has been developed by the Manager pursuant to which the Manager selects, subject to the Board’s approval, sub-advisers to provide day-to-day management services to all or a portion of each Voya fund. The Board recognized that the Manager is responsible for monitoring the Sub-Adviser’s investment program, performance, developments, ongoing operations, and compliance with applicable regulations and investment policies and restrictions with respect to the Portfolio under this manager-of-managers arrangement. The Board also considered the techniques and resources that the Manager has developed to provide this ongoing due diligence and oversight with respect to the sub-advisers and to recommend appropriate changes in investment strategies, sub-advisers, or allocation among sub-advisers in an effort to improve a Voya fund’s performance. In connection with the Manager’s performance of these duties, the Board considered that the Manager has developed an oversight process formulated by its Manager Research & Selection Group that reviews, among other matters, performance data, the Sub-Adviser’s management team, portfolio data and attribution analysis related to the Sub-Adviser through various means, including, but not limited to, in-person meetings, on-site or virtual visits, and telephonic meetings with the Sub-Adviser.

Further, the Board considered periodic compliance reports it receives from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer evaluating, among other related matters, whether the regulatory compliance systems and procedures of the Manager and Sub-Adviser are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the federal securities laws and whether the investment policies and restrictions for the Portfolio are complied with on a consistent basis.

The Board considered the portfolio management team assigned by the Sub-Adviser to the Portfolio and the level of resources committed to the Portfolio (and other relevant funds in the Voya funds) by the Manager and the Sub-Adviser, and whether those resources are sufficient to provide high-quality services to the Portfolio.

Based on their deliberations and the materials presented to them, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the overall services provided by the Manager and Sub-Adviser under the Contracts were appropriate.

Portfolio Performance

In assessing the investment management and sub-advisory relationships, the Board placed emphasis on the investment returns of the Portfolio, including its investment performance over certain time periods compared to the Portfolio’s Morningstar category and primary benchmark, a

broad-based securities market index identified in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Board also considered information from the Manager Research & Selection Group and received reports summarizing a separate analysis of the Portfolio’s performance and risk, including risk-adjusted investment return information, from the Trust’s Chief Investment Risk Officer.

Economies of Scale

When evaluating the reasonableness of the management fee schedule, the Board considered whether economies of scale have been or likely will be realized by the Manager and Sub-Adviser as the Portfolio grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are shared with the Portfolio. The Board considered that, while the Portfolio does not have management fee breakpoints, it has fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale realized by the Manager could be shared with the Portfolio through such fee waivers, expense reimbursements or other expense reductions. In evaluating these matters, the Board also considered periodic management reports, Selected Peer Group comparisons, and industry information regarding economies of scale.

Information Regarding Services, Performance, and Fee Schedules Offered to Other Clients

The Board considered comparative information regarding the nature of services, performance, and fee schedules offered by the Manager and Sub-Adviser to other clients with similar investment objectives, if applicable, including other registered investment companies and relevant institutional accounts. When the fee schedules offered to or the performance of such other clients differed materially from the Portfolio, the Board took into account the underlying rationale provided by the Manager or Sub-Adviser, as applicable, for these differences.

Fee Schedules, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits

The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee schedule and net management fee rate payable by the Portfolio to the Manager compared to the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group. The Board also considered the compensation payable by the Manager to the Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services for the Portfolio, including the portion of the contractual and net management fee rates that are paid to the Sub-Adviser, as compared to the compensation paid to the Manager. In addition, the Board considered the fee waivers, expense limitations, and recoupment arrangements that apply to the fees payable by the Portfolio, including whether the Manager intends to propose any changes thereto. The Board separately determined that the fees payable to the Manager and the fee schedule payable to the Sub-Adviser are reasonable for the services that each performs, which


23



ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

were considered in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services that each has performed and is expected to perform.

The Board considered information on revenues, costs and profits or losses realized by the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser related to their services to the Portfolio. In analyzing the profitability of the Manager and its affiliates in connection with services they render to a Portfolio, the Board took into account the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Manager to the Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered the profitability of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser attributable to servicing the Portfolio both with and without taking into account the profitability of the distributor of the Portfolio and any revenue sharing payments made by the Manager.

Although the Methodology Guide establishes a framework for profit calculation, the Board recognized that there is no uniform methodology within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose. The Board also recognized that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to dramatically different reported profit and loss results with respect to the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser, as well as other industry participants with whom the profits of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser could be compared. In addition, the Board recognized that management’s calculations regarding its costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the Portfolio’s operations may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to the Portfolio in determining profitability. The Board also recognized that the information presented may not portray all of the costs borne by the Manager or reflect all of the risks associated with offering and managing a mutual fund complex in the current regulatory and market environment, including entrepreneurial, regulatory, legal and operational risks.

The Board also considered that the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser are entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that they provide to the Portfolio. The Board also considered information regarding the potential fall-out benefits to the Manager and Sub-Adviser and their respective affiliates from their association with the Portfolio, including their ability to engage in soft-dollar transactions on behalf of the Portfolio. Following its reviews, the Board determined that the Manager’s and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser’s profitability with respect to their services to the Portfolio and the Manager’s and Sub-Adviser’s potential fall-out benefits were not unreasonable.

Portfolio Analysis

Set forth below are certain of the specific factors that the Board considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings

in relation to approving the Portfolio’s Contracts and the conclusions reached by the Board. These specific factors are in addition to those considerations discussed above. The Portfolio’s performance was compared to its Morningstar category, as well as its primary benchmark. The performance data provided to the Board primarily was for various periods ended March 31, 2022. In addition, the Board also considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings certain additional data regarding the Portfolio’s more recent performance, asset levels and asset flows. The Portfolio’s management fee rate and expense ratio were compared to the management fee rates and expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. With respect to the quintile rankings noted below, the first quintile represents the range of funds with the highest performance or the lowest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable, and the fifth quintile represents the range of funds with the lowest performance or the highest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable.

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of its Morningstar category for the five-year period, the second quintile for the three-year period, and the fifth quintile for the year-to-date and one-year periods; and (2) the Portfolio underperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented. In analyzing this performance data, the Board took into account management’s representations regarding the competitiveness of the Portfolio’s performance during certain periods.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a level fee rate that does not include breakpoints; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fourth quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the third quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the all-in net expense ratio for the Portfolio, inclusive of the Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses (“AFFE”), is ranked in the first quintile of all-in net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group, and the net expense ratio for the Portfolio, not inclusive of AFFE, is above the median of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account: (1) that, as reflected in the AFFE, the Portfolio indirectly bears the fees payable by the


24



ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

underlying funds in which the Portfolio invests; and (2) management’s representations regarding the competitiveness of the Portfolio’s management fee rate and all-in net expense ratio.

Board Conclusions

After its deliberation, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Contracts are fair and reasonable to the Portfolio and that approval of the continuation of the Contracts is in the best interests of the Portfolio and its shareholders. In doing so, the Board reviewed all factors it considered to be material, including

those discussed above. Within the context of its overall conclusions regarding the Contracts, and based on the information provided and management’s related representations, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with management’s responses relating to the Portfolio’s investment performance and the fees payable under the Contracts. During this renewal process, each Board member may have accorded different weight to various factors in reaching his or her conclusions. Based on these conclusions and other factors, the Board voted to renew the Contracts for the Portfolio for the year ending November 30, 2023.

Voya Retirement Portfolios

Portfolio Managers’ Report

Voya Retirement Portfolios consist of Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolio, Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio, Voya Retirement Moderate Portfolio and Voya Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio (each a “Portfolio” or collectively, the “Portfolios” or the “Retirement Portfolios”). Each Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a combination of underlying funds which are actively managed funds or passively managed funds (index funds).(1) The Portfolios are managed by Paul Zemsky, CFA, and Barbara Reinhard, CFA, Portfolio Managers* of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM”) — the Sub-Adviser (“Sub-Adviser).

Performance: Each Portfolio’s performance against its respective benchmarks is set out in the table below.

Portfolio Specifics: Over the reporting period, the Portfolios met their performance objectives by minimizing performance deviation relative to their strategic asset allocation benchmarks. Due to the strategic nature of the Portfolios, no tactical asset allocation moves were made during the period. As part of the annual review, the portfolio management team made changes to the strategic asset allocations at the end of June. Strategic changes included increasing equities in the Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio and decreasing equities in the Voya Retirement Moderate Growth, Voya Retirement Moderate and Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolios. We added US large cap value equities in all Portfolios by reducing US mid cap blend in the Voya Retirement Growth, Voya Retirement Moderate Growth and Voya Retirement Moderate Portfolios and removing it in the Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolio. Also, we reduced emerging markets equities in all Portfolios. In addition, we added Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities to the Voya Retirement Moderate and Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolios. Finally, we increased short duration in Voya Retirement Moderate and Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolios while reducing it in the Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio.

The underlying index funds performed as expected, minimizing performance deviation relative to their respective strategic allocation benchmarks before the deduction of fees.

Current Strategy and Outlook: Inflation dominated the headlines in 2022, and we believe its progression and policy makers’ responses will continue to be the principal global macro drivers in the year ahead. Although it remains unacceptably high, data suggests it has peaked with meaningfully lower core goods and energy prices. Income sensitive components of the price Index baskets, such as shelter and services, are proving sticker given the still strong labor market and high personal income. However, we are beginning to see the effects of declining demand with wage gains cooling, which we expect will continue and contribute to a steady fall in inflation to the low single digits by the end of the year. However, we do not expect a shift in policy from the US Federal Reserve or European Central Bank. With more tightening in store and explicit declarations that there will be no rate cuts in 2023, a contraction in developed market growth seems likely and should cause top line revenues to fall. Additionally, we believe the prolonged period of rising costs is likely to erode profit margins ahead, including those of US large cap companies, which have thus far been relatively successful in maintaining pricing power. In general, US stocks are not cheap, but we believe they are well off peaks and seem reasonable. On the other side of this year, however, we believe will see moderate inflation, more normal interest rates and slow but positive growth, which should be good for equities. Until investors begin to price in that outcome, volatility will likely be high.

Portfolio holdings and characteristics are subject to change and may not be representative of current holdings and characteristics. Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily. The outlook for this Portfolio may differ from that presented for other Voya mutual funds. This report contains statements that may be “forward-looking” statements. Actual results may differ materially from those projected in the “forward-looking” statements. The Portfolio’s performance returns shown reflect applicable fee waivers and/or expense limits in effect during this period. Absent such fee waivers/expense limitations, if any, performance would have been lower. Performance for the different classes of shares will vary based on differences in fees associated with each class. An index has no cash in its portfolio and imposes no sales charges.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLES (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Portfolio expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The Portfolios’ expenses are shown without the imposition of any charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract, variable life insurance policy, qualified pension or retirement plan. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.

Actual Expenses

The left section of the table shown below, “Actual Portfolio Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The right section of the table shown below, “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses),” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Portfolio’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 the ongoing costs of investing in a Portfolio and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders of Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolio, Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio, Voya Retirement Moderate Portfolio and Voya Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio and the Board of Trustees of Voya Investors Trust

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolio, Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio, Voya Retirement Moderate Portfolio and Voya Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio (collectively referred to as the “Portfolios”) (four of the portfolios constituting Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”)), including the portfolios of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Portfolios (four of the portfolios constituting Voya Investors Trust) at December 31, 2022, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and their financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The financial highlights for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated February 26, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial highlights.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on each of the Portfolios’ 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 Trust 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 in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such 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 procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers and others, we performed other auditing procedures. 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022

 

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION

Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on August 3, 1988. The Trust currently consists of twenty-one active separate investment series. The four series (each, a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”) included in this report are: Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolio (“Conservative”), Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio (“Growth”), Voya Retirement Moderate Portfolio (“Moderate”) and Voya Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio (“Moderate Growth”), each a diversified series of the Trust.

The classes of shares included in this report are: Adviser (“Class ADV”) and Institutional (“Class I”). With the exception of class specific matters, each class has equal voting rights as to voting privileges. For class specific proposals, only the applicable class would have voting privileges. The classes differ principally in the applicable distribution and shareholder service fees, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses, if any. Generally, shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders are allocated the common expenses of a portfolio and earn income and realized gains/losses from a portfolio pro rata based on the daily ending net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses that are specific to a portfolio or a class are charged directly to that portfolio or class. Other operating expenses shared by several portfolios are generally allocated among those portfolios based on average net assets. Distributions are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocated to each class. Realized gain distributions are allocated to each class pro rata based on the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder service fees, if any, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses between the separate classes, if any.

Voya Investments, LLC (“Voya Investments” or the “Investment Adviser”), an Arizona limited liability company serves as the Investment Adviser to the Portfolios. Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM” or the “Sub-Adviser”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the Sub-Adviser to the Portfolios. Voya Investments Distributor, LLC (“VID” or the “Distributor”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the principal underwriter to the Portfolios.

Each Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in other investment companies (“Underlying Funds”) and uses asset allocation strategies to determine how much to invest in the Underlying Funds. The investment objective of the Portfolios is described in the respective Portfolio’s Prospectus.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Portfolio is considered an investment company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A.  Security Valuation. Each Portfolio is open for business every day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) opens for regular trading (each such day, a “Business Day”). The net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of each Portfolio is determined each Business Day as of the close of the regular trading session (“Market Close”), as determined by the Consolidated Tape Association (“CTA”), the central distributor of transaction prices for exchange-traded securities (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time unless otherwise designated by the CTA). The NAV per share of each class of each Portfolio is calculated by taking the value of the Portfolio’s assets attributable to that class, subtracting the Portfolio’s liabilities attributable to that class, and dividing by the number of shares of that class that are outstanding. On days when a Portfolio is closed for business, Portfolio shares will not be priced and a Portfolio does not transact purchase and redemption orders. To the extent a Portfolio’s assets are traded in other markets on days when a Portfolio does not price its shares, the value of a Portfolio’s assets will likely change and you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of a Portfolio.

Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. Investments in open-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day NAV per share. The prospectuses of the open-end registered investment companies in which each Portfolio may invest explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing. Foreign securities’ prices are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of Market Close.

When a market quotation for a portfolio security is not readily available or is deemed unreliable (for example when trading has been halted or there are unexpected market closures or other material events that would suggest that the market quotation is unreliable) and for purposes of determining the value of other Portfolio assets,

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

 

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

the asset is priced at its fair value. The Board has designated the Investment Adviser, as the valuation designee, to make fair value determinations in good faith. In determining the fair value of each Portfolio’s assets, the Investment Adviser, pursuant to its fair valuation policy, may consider inputs from pricing service providers, broker-dealers, or each Portfolio’s sub-adviser(s). Issuer specific events, transaction price, position size, nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of an asset’s fair value. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before Market Close, closing market quotations may become unreliable. The prices of foreign securities will generally be adjusted based on inputs from an independent pricing service that are intended to reflect valuation changes through the NYSE close. Because of the inherent uncertainties of fair valuation, the values used to determine each Portfolio’s NAV may materially differ from the value received upon actual sale of those investments. Thus, fair valuation may have an unintended dilutive or accretive effect on the value of shareholders’ investments in each Portfolio.

The Portfolios’ financial instruments are valued at the close of the NYSE and are reported at fair value, which GAAP defines as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Various valuation techniques and inputs are used to determine the fair value of financial instruments. GAAP establishes the following fair value hierarchy that categorizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial instruments that the portfolio can access at the reporting date.

Level 2 — inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar financial instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar financial instruments in inactive markets, interest rates and yield curves, implied volatilities, and credit spreads).

Level 3 — unobservable inputs (including the portfolio’s own assumptions in determining fair value).

Observable inputs are developed using market data, such as publicly available information about actual events or transactions, and reflect the assumptions that market participants would use to price the financial instrument. Unobservable inputs are those for which market data are not available and are developed using the best information available about the assumptions that market participants

would use to price the financial instrument. GAAP requires valuation techniques to maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. When multiple inputs are used to derive fair value, the financial instrument is assigned to the level within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest-level input that is significant to the fair value of the financial instrument. Input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with financial instruments at that level but rather the degree of judgment used in determining those values.

A table summarizing each Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within each Portfolio of Investments.

Each investment asset or liability of the Portfolios is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” inputs other than quoted prices for an asset or liability that are observable are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Sub-Adviser’s or Pricing Committee’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality are generally considered to be Level 2 securities under applicable accounting rules. The Portfolios classify each of their investments in the Underlying Funds as Level 1, without consideration as to the classification level of the specific investments held by the Underlying Funds. A table summarizing each Portfolio’s investments under these levels of classification is included within the Portfolio of Investments.

GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. A reconciliation of Level 3 investments within the Portfolio of Investments is presented only when a Portfolio has a significant amount of Level 3 investments.

B. Securities Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Dividend income received from the Underlying Funds is recognized on the ex-dividend date and is recorded as dividends from underlying funds in the Statements of Operations. Capital gain distributions received from the Underlying Funds are recognized on the ex-dividend date and are recorded on the Statements of Operations as such. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold.

NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

C. Distributions to Shareholders. The Portfolios record distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. Each Portfolio declares and pays dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, annually. The Portfolios may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies.

D.  Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of each Portfolio to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, a federal income tax or excise tax provision is not required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Portfolios’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until the capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized.

The Portfolios may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain.

E.  Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make 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.

F.  Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Trust may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Portfolios and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, management considers the risk of loss from such claims remote.

NOTE 3 — INVESTMENTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the cost of purchases and the proceeds from the sales of the Underlying Funds were as follows:

  Purchases     Sales  
Conservative
  $ 79,368,325        $ 121,183,479  
Growth
    406,126,833       677,799,564

Moderate Growth
    259,657,764       450,570,645  

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEES

The Portfolios have entered into an investment management agreement (“Management Agreement”) with the Investment Adviser. The Investment Adviser has overall responsibility for the management of the Portfolios. The Investment Adviser oversees all investment management and portfolio management services for the Portfolios and assists in managing and supervising all aspects of the general day-to-day business activities and operations of the Portfolios, including custodial, transfer agency, dividend disbursing, accounting, auditing, compliance and related services. This Management Agreement compensates the Investment Adviser with a management fee, computed daily and payable monthly, based on: 0.24% of each Portfolio’s average daily net assets invested in affiliated Underlying Funds and 0.34% of each Portfolio’s average daily net assets invested in unaffiliated Underlying Funds and/or other direct investments.

The Investment Adviser has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with Voya IM with respect to each Portfolio. Voya IM provides investment advice for the Portfolios and is paid by the Investment Adviser based on the average daily net assets of each respective Portfolio. Subject to such policies as the Board or the Investment Adviser may determine, Voya IM manages the Portfolios’ assets in accordance with the Portfolios’ investment objectives, policies, and limitations.

NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES

The Trust has entered into a shareholder service and distribution plan (the “Agreement”) for the Class ADV shares of each Portfolio. The Agreement compensates the Distributor for the provision of shareholder services and/or account maintenance services and the distribution of shares to direct or indirect beneficial owners of Class ADV shares. Under the Agreement, each Portfolio makes payments to the Distributor a shareholder service fee of 0.25% and a distribution fee of 0.25% of each Portfolio’s average daily net assets attributable to Class ADV shares. The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive 0.2480%, 0.0751%, 0.1587% and 0.1106% of the distribution fee for the Class ADV shares of Conservative, Growth, Moderate and Moderate Growth, respectively. The actual distribution fee to be paid by Conservative, Growth, Moderate and Moderate Growth is at an annual rate of 0.002%, 0.1749%, 0.0913% and 0.1394%, respectively. Any fees waived are not subject to recoupment. Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board.

NOTE 6 — OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES

At December 31, 2022, the following direct or indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Voya Financial, Inc. owned more than 5% of the following Portfolios:

Subsidiary   Portfolio   Percentage
Voya Institutional Trust Company
 
Conservative
  25.47 %
 
 
Moderate
  10.89  
 
 
Moderate Growth
  6.15  

The Portfolios have adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “DC Plan”), which allows eligible independent trustees, as described in the DC Plan, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the trustees’ fees that they are entitled to receive from the Portfolios. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the trustee under the DC Plan, the amounts deferred are invested in shares of the funds selected by the trustee (the “Notional Funds”). When the Portfolios purchase shares of the Notional Funds, which are all advised by Voya Investments, in amounts equal to the trustees’ deferred fees, this results in a Portfolio asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets, if applicable, are included as a component of “Other assets” on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of trustees’ fees under the DC Plan will not affect net assets of the Portfolios, and will not materially affect the Portfolios’ assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the DC Plan.

The Portfolios may pay per account fees to affiliates of Voya Investments for recordkeeping services provided on certain assets. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the per account fees for affiliated recordkeeping services paid by each Portfolio were as follows:

Portfolio   Amount  
Conservative
  $ 45,372  
Growth
    32,228  
Moderate
    45,164  
Moderate Growth
    44,506  

NOTE 7 — EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENT

The Investment Adviser has entered into a written expense limitation agreement (“Expense Limitation Agreement”) with each Portfolio whereby the Investment Adviser has agreed to limit expenses, excluding interest, taxes, investment-related costs, leverage expenses and extraordinary expenses to the levels listed below:

 

Portfolio(1)   Class ADV   Class I
Conservative
 
0.92%
 
0.67%
Growth
 
1.07%
 
0.82%
Portfolio(1)   Class ADV   Class I
Moderate
 
1.00%
 
0.75%
Moderate Growth
 
1.04%
 
0.79%

 

 
(1) 
  The operating expense limits take into account the operating expenses incurred at the Underlying Fund level. The amount of fees and expenses of an Underlying Fund borne by each Portfolio will vary based on each Portfolio’s allocation of assets to, and the net expenses of, a particular Underlying Fund.

The Investment Adviser may at a later date recoup from a Portfolio for fees waived and/or other expenses reimbursed by the Investment Adviser during the previous 36 months but only if, after such recoupment, a Portfolio’s expense ratio does not exceed the percentage described above. Waived and reimbursed fees net of any recoupment by the Investment Adviser of such waived and reimbursed fees are reflected on the accompanying Statements of Operations. Amounts payable by the Investment Adviser are reflected on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

As of December 31, 2022, the Portfolios did not have any amount of waived and/or reimbursed fees that would be subject to possible recoupment.

The Expense Limitation Agreement is contractual through May 1, 2023 and shall renew automatically for one-year terms. Termination or modification of this obligation requires approval by the Board.

NOTE 8 — LINE OF CREDIT

Effective June 13, 2022, the Portfolios, in addition to certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser, entered into a 364-day unsecured committed revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”) for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 through June 12, 2023. The proceeds may be used only to finance temporarily: (1) the purchase or sale of investment securities; or (2) the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Portfolio or certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser. The funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount payable quarterly in arrears. Prior to June 13, 2022, the predecessor line of credit was for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 and the funds to which the line of credit was available paid a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount through June 13, 2022.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the federal funds rate plus a specified margin. Repayments generally must be made within 60 days after the date of a revolving credit advance.

NOTE 10 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of short-term capital gains and wash sale deferrals.

Dividends paid by the Portfolios from net investment income and distributions of net realized short-term capital gains are, for federal income tax purposes, taxable as ordinary income to shareholders.

At December 31, 2022, the Portfolios did not have any capital loss carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The Portfolios’ major tax jurisdictions are U.S. federal, Arizona state, and Massachusetts state.

As of December 31, 2022, no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolios’ financial statements as a result of tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for open tax years. The Portfolios’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue. Generally, the preceding four tax years remain subject to examination by these jurisdictions.

 

NOTE 11 — LONDON INTERBANK OFFERED RATE (“LIBOR”)

In 2017, the UK Financial Conduct Authority announced its intention to cease compelling banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR after 2021. On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration, the administrator of LIBOR, stated that non-U.S. dollar LIBOR reference rates and the one-week and two-month LIBOR reference rates ceased to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after December 31, 2021 and the remaining more commonly used LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or no longer be representative immediately after June 30, 2023. In addition, global regulators have announced that, with limited exceptions, no new LIBOR-based contracts should be entered into after 2021. Actions by regulators have resulted in the establishment of alternative reference rates to LIBOR in most major currencies (e.g., the Secured Overnight Financing Rate for U.S. Dollar LIBOR and the Sterling Overnight Interbank Average Rate for Sterling LIBOR).

Discontinuance of LIBOR and adoption/implementation of alternative rates pose a number of risks, including among others whether any substitute rate will experience the market participation and liquidity necessary to provide a workable substitute for LIBOR; the effect on parties’ existing contractual arrangements, hedging transactions, and investment strategies generally from a conversion from LIBOR to alternative rates; the effect on a Portfolio’s

existing investments (including, for example, fixed-income investments, senior loans, CLOs and CDOs, and derivatives transactions), including the possibility that some of those investments may terminate or their terms may be adjusted to the disadvantage of a Portfolio; and the risk of general market disruption during the period of the conversion. It is difficult to predict at this time the likely impact of the transition away from LIBOR on a Portfolio.

NOTE 12 — MARKET DISRUPTION

A Portfolio is subject to the risk that geopolitical events will disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets. Due to the increasing interdependence among global economies and markets, conditions in one country, market, or region might adversely impact markets, issuers and/or foreign exchange rates in other countries, including the U.S.. Wars, terrorism, global health crises and pandemics, and other geopolitical events that have led, and in the future may continue to lead, to increased market volatility and may have adverse short- or long-term effects on U.S. and global economies and markets generally. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in significant market volatility, exchange suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, supply chain disruptions, and a substantial economic downturn in economies throughout the world. Natural and environmental disasters and


21


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2022 (CONTINUED)

 

NOTE 12 — MARKET DISRUPTION (continued)

systemic market dislocations are also highly disruptive to economies and markets. In addition, military action by Russia in Ukraine has, and may continue to, adversely affect global energy and financial markets and therefore could affect the value of a Portfolio’s investments, including beyond a Portfolio’s direct exposure to Russian issuers or nearby geographic regions. The extent and duration of the military action, sanctions and resulting market disruptions are impossible to predict and could be substantial. Those events as well as other changes in foreign (non-U.S.) and domestic economic, social, and political conditions also could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups

of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the Portfolio’s investments. Any of these occurrences could disrupt the operations of a Portfolio and of the Portfolio’s service providers.

NOTE 13 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Portfolios have evaluated events occurring after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date through the date that the financial statements were issued (“subsequent events”) to determine whether any subsequent events necessitated adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements. No such subsequent events were identified.

Foreign taxes paid or withheld should be included in taxable income with an offsetting deduction from gross income or as a credit for taxes paid to foreign governments. Shareholders are strongly advised to consult their own tax advisors regarding the appropriate treatment of foreign taxes paid.

Above figures may differ from those cited elsewhere in this report due to differences in the calculation of income and gains under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (book) purposes and Internal Revenue Service (tax) purposes.

  Trustees serve until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The tenure of each Trustee who is not an “interested person” as defined in the 1940 Act, of each Portfolio (“Independent Trustee”) is subject to the Board’s retirement policy which states that each duly elected or appointed Independent Trustee shall retire from and cease to be a member of the Board of Trustees at the close of business on December 31 of the calendar year in which the Independent Trustee attains the age of 75. A majority vote of the Board’s other Independent Trustees may extend the retirement date of an Independent Trustee if the retirement would trigger a requirement to hold a meeting of shareholders of the Trust under applicable law, whether for the purposes of appointing a successor to the Independent Trustee or otherwise comply under applicable law, in which case the extension would apply until such time as the shareholder meeting can be held or is no longer required (as determined by a vote of a majority of the other Independent Trustees).

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED)

BOARD CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CONTRACT AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT

At a meeting held on November 17, 2022, the Board of Trustees (“Board”) of Voya Investors Trust (the “Trust”), including a majority of the Board members who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment management and sub-advisory contracts, and who are not “interested persons” of Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolio, Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio, Voya Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio, and Voya Retirement Moderate Portfolio, each a series of the Trust (the “Portfolios”), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”), considered and approved the renewal of the investment management contracts (the “Management Contracts”) between Voya Investments, LLC (the “Manager”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Portfolios, and the sub-advisory contracts (the “Sub-Advisory Contracts,” and together with the Management Contracts, the “Contracts”) with Voya Investment Management Co. LLC, the sub-adviser to each Portfolio (the “Sub-Adviser”), for an additional one-year period ending November 30, 2023.

In addition to the Board meeting on November 17, 2022, the Independent Trustees also held meetings outside the presence of representatives of the Manager and Sub-Adviser (collectively, such persons are referred to herein as “management”) on October 12-13, 2022, and November 15, 2022. At those meetings, the Board members reviewed and considered materials related to the proposed continuance of the Contracts that they had requested and believed to be relevant to the renewal of the Contracts in light of their own business judgment and the legal advice furnished to them by K&L Gates LLP, their independent legal counsel. The Board also considered information furnished to it throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees, including information regarding performance, expenses, and other relevant matters. While the Board considered the renewal of the management contracts and sub-advisory contracts for all of the applicable investment companies in the Voya family of funds at the same meetings, the Board considered each Voya fund’s investment management and sub-advisory relationships separately.

The Board has established a Contracts Committee and two Investment Review Committees (the “IRCs”), each of which includes only Independent Trustees as members. The Contracts Committee meets several times throughout the year to provide oversight with respect to the management and sub-advisory contracts approval and renewal process for the Voya funds, among other functions, and each IRC meets several times throughout the year with respect to each Voya fund (assigned to that

IRC) to provide oversight regarding the investment performance of the sub-advisers, as well as the Manager’s role in monitoring the sub-advisers.

The Contracts Committee oversees, and annually recommends Board approval of updates to, a methodology guide for the Voya funds (“Methodology Guide”), which sets out a framework pursuant to which the Independent Trustees request, and management provides, certain information that the Independent Trustees deem to be important or potentially relevant to the contracts renewal process for the Voya funds. The Independent Trustees retain the services of an independent consultant with experience in the mutual fund industry to assist the Contracts Committee in developing and recommending to the Board: (1) a selected peer group of investment companies for each Portfolio (“Selected Peer Group”) based on that Portfolio’s particular attributes, such as fund type and size, fund category (as determined by Morningstar, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data (“Morningstar”)), sales channels and structure and the Portfolio share class being compared to the Selected Peer Group; and (2) updates to the Methodology Guide with respect to the content and format of various data prepared in connection with the renewal process, including, but not limited to, investment performance, fee structure, and expense information. In addition, the Independent Trustees periodically have retained an independent firm to test and verify the accuracy of certain information presented to the Board for a representative sample of the Voya funds.

The Manager or Sub-Adviser may not have been able to, or opted not to, provide information in response to certain information requests, in which case the Board conducted its evaluation based on the information that was provided. In such cases, the Board determined that the omission of any such information was not material to its considerations. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant periods of market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of the Manager and Sub-Adviser.

Provided below is an overview of certain material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding the renewal of the Contracts and the compensation to be paid thereunder. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was most relevant to its consideration.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Manager oversees, subject to the authority of the Board, and is responsible for the provision of, all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Portfolios, but may delegate certain of these responsibilities to one or more sub-advisers. In addition,


35



ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)

the Manager provides administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Portfolios as set forth in the Management Contracts, including oversight of the Portfolios’ operations and risk management and the oversight of their various other service providers.

The Board considered the “manager-of-managers” structure of the Voya funds that has been developed by the Manager pursuant to which the Manager selects, subject to the Board’s approval, sub-advisers to provide day-to-day management services to all or a portion of each Voya fund. The Board recognized that the Manager is responsible for monitoring the Sub-Adviser’s investment program, performance, developments, ongoing operations, and compliance with applicable regulations and investment policies and restrictions with respect to the Portfolios under this manager-of-managers arrangement. The Board also considered the techniques and resources that the Manager has developed to provide this ongoing due diligence and oversight with respect to the sub-advisers and to recommend appropriate changes in investment strategies, sub-advisers, or allocation among sub-advisers in an effort to improve a Voya fund’s performance. In connection with the Manager’s performance of these duties, the Board considered that the Manager has developed an oversight process formulated by its Manager Research & Selection Group that reviews, among other matters, performance data, the Sub-Adviser’s management team, portfolio data and attribution analysis related to the Sub-Adviser through various means, including, but not limited to, in-person meetings, on-site or virtual visits, and telephonic meetings with the Sub-Adviser.

Further, the Board considered periodic compliance reports it receives from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer evaluating, among other related matters, whether the regulatory compliance systems and procedures of the Manager and Sub-Adviser are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the federal securities laws and whether the investment policies and restrictions for each Portfolio are complied with on a consistent basis.

The Board considered the portfolio management team assigned by the Sub-Adviser to the Portfolios and the level of resources committed to the Portfolios (and other relevant funds in the Voya funds) by the Manager and Sub-Adviser, and whether those resources are sufficient to provide high-quality services to the Portfolios.

Based on their deliberations and the materials presented to them, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the overall services provided by the Manager and Sub-Adviser under the Contracts were appropriate.

Portfolio Performance

In assessing the investment management and sub-advisory relationships, the Board placed emphasis on the investment returns of each Portfolio, including its investment performance over certain time periods compared to the Portfolio’s Morningstar category and primary benchmark, a broad-based securities market index identified in the Portfolio’s prospectus. The Board also considered information from the Manager Research & Selection Group and received reports summarizing a separate analysis of each Portfolio’s performance and risk, including risk-adjusted investment return information, from the Trust’s Chief Investment Risk Officer.

Economies of Scale

When evaluating the reasonableness of the management fee schedules, the Board considered whether economies of scale have been or likely will be realized by the Manager and the Sub-Adviser as a Portfolio grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are shared with the Portfolio. The Board considered that, while the Portfolios do not have management fee breakpoints, they have fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale realized by the Manager could be shared with each Portfolio through such fee waivers, expense reimbursements or other expense reductions. In evaluating these matters, the Board also considered periodic management reports, Selected Peer Group comparisons, and industry information regarding economies of scale.

Information Regarding Services, Performance, and Fee Schedules Offered to Other Clients

The Board considered comparative information regarding the nature of services, performance, and fee schedules offered by the Manager and Sub-Adviser to other clients with similar investment objectives, if applicable, including other registered investment companies and relevant institutional accounts. When the fee schedules offered to or the performance of such other clients differed materially from a Portfolio, the Board took into account the underlying rationale provided by the Manager or Sub-Adviser, as applicable, for these differences.

Fee Schedules, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits

The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee schedule and net management fee rate payable by each Portfolio to the Manager compared to the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group. The Board also considered the compensation payable by the Manager to the Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services for each Portfolio, including the portion of the contractual and net management fee rates that are paid to the Sub-Adviser, as


36



ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)

compared to the compensation paid to the Manager. In addition, the Board considered any fee waivers, expense limitations, and recoupment arrangements that apply to the fees payable by the Portfolios, including whether the Manager intends to propose any changes thereto. For each Portfolio, the Board separately determined that the fees payable to the Manager and the fee schedule payable to the Sub-Adviser are reasonable for the services that each performs, which were considered in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services that each has performed and is expected to perform.

For each Portfolio, the Board considered information on revenues, costs and profits or losses realized by the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser related to their services to the Portfolio. In analyzing the profitability of the Manager and its affiliates in connection with services they render to a Portfolio, the Board took into account the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Manager to the Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered the profitability of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser attributable to servicing each Portfolio both with and without taking into account the profitability of the distributor of the Portfolios and any revenue sharing payments made by the Manager.

Although the Methodology Guide establishes a framework for profit calculation, the Board recognized that there is no uniform methodology within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose. The Board also recognized that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to dramatically different reported profit and loss results with respect to the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser, as well as other industry participants with whom the profits of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser could be compared. In addition, the Board recognized that management’s calculations regarding its costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the Portfolios’ operations may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to each Portfolio in determining profitability. The Board also recognized that the information presented may not portray all of the costs borne by the Manager or reflect all of the risks associated with offering and managing a mutual fund complex in the current regulatory and market environment, including entrepreneurial, regulatory, legal and operational risks.

The Board also considered that the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser are entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that they provide to the Portfolios. The Board also considered information regarding the potential fall-out benefits to the Manager and Sub-Adviser and their respective affiliates from their association with the Portfolios, including their ability to engage in soft-dollar transactions on behalf of the Portfolios. Following its reviews, the Board determined that

the Manager’s and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser’s profitability with respect to their services to the Portfolios and the Manager and Sub-Adviser’s potential fall-out benefits were not unreasonable.

Portfolio-by-Portfolio Analysis

Set forth below are certain of the specific factors that the Board considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings in relation to approving each Portfolio’s Contracts and the conclusions reached by the Board. These specific factors are in addition to those considerations discussed above. In each case, the Portfolio’s performance was compared to its Morningstar category, as well as its primary benchmark. The performance data provided to the Board primarily was for various periods ended March 31, 2022. In addition, the Board also considered at its October 12-13, 2022, November 15, 2022, and/or November 17, 2022 meetings certain additional data regarding each Portfolio’s more recent performance, asset levels and asset flows. Each Portfolio’s management fee rate and expense ratio were compared to the management fee rates and expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. With respect to the quintile rankings noted below, the first quintile represents the range of funds with the highest performance or the lowest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable, and the fifth quintile represents the range of funds with the lowest performance or the highest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable.

Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for Voya Retirement Conservative Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of its Morningstar category for the three-year and five-year periods, the second quintile for the one-year and ten-year periods, and the fourth quintile for the year-to-date period; and (2) the Portfolio outperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented, with the exception of the five-year and ten-year periods, during which it underperformed.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a level fee rate that does not include breakpoints; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)

contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the all-in net expense ratio for the Portfolio, inclusive of the Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses (“AFFE”), is ranked in the third quintile of all-in net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group, and the net expense ratio for the Portfolio, not inclusive of AFFE, is above the median of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account: (1) that, as reflected in the AFFE, the Portfolio indirectly bears the fees payable by the underlying funds in which the Portfolio invests; (2) management’s representations of the limited size of the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group; and (3) management’s representations regarding its belief that the Portfolio’s pricing is competitive.

Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for Voya Retirement Growth Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the second quintile of its Morningstar category for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods, and the third quintile for the year-to-date and ten-year periods; and (2) the Portfolio underperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented, with the exception of the one-year and three-year periods, during which it outperformed.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a level fee rate that does not include breakpoints; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the all-in net expense ratio for the Portfolio, inclusive of the Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses (“AFFE”), is ranked in the fourth quintile of all-in net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group, and the net expense ratio for the Portfolio, not inclusive of AFFE, is above the median of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account: (1) that, as reflected in the AFFE, the Portfolio indirectly bears the fees payable by the underlying funds in which the Portfolio invests; (2) management’s representations of the limited size of the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group; and (3) management’s representations regarding of its belief that the Portfolio’s pricing is competitive.

Voya Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for Voya Retirement Moderate Growth Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the second quintile of its Morningstar category for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods, and the third quintile for the year-to-date and ten-year periods; and (2) the Portfolio outperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented.

In considering the fees payable under the Contracts for the Portfolio, the Board took into account the factors described above and also considered: (1) the fairness of the compensation under a Management Contract with a level fee rate that does not include breakpoints; and (2) the pricing structure (including the net expense ratio to be borne by shareholders) of the Portfolio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, including that: (a) the net management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of net management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; (b) the contractual management fee rate for the Portfolio is ranked in the fifth quintile of contractual management fee rates of the funds in its Selected Peer Group; and (c) the all-in net expense ratio for the Portfolio, inclusive of the Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses (“AFFE”), is ranked in the third quintile of all-in net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group, and the net expense ratio for the Portfolio, not inclusive of AFFE, is above the median of net expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account: (1) that, as reflected in the AFFE, the Portfolio indirectly bears the fees payable by the underlying funds in which the Portfolio invests; (2) management’s representations of the limited size of the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group; and (3) management’s representations regarding its belief that the Portfolio’s pricing is competitive.

Voya Retirement Moderate Portfolio

In considering whether to approve the renewal of the Contracts for Voya Retirement Moderate Portfolio, the Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2022: (1) the Portfolio is ranked in the first quintile of its Morningstar category for the one-year, three-year, five-year and ten-year periods, and the fourth quintile for the year-to-date period; and (2) the Portfolio outperformed its primary benchmark for all periods presented.

In analyzing this fee data, the Board took into account: (1) that, as reflected in the AFFE, the Portfolio indirectly bears the fees payable by the underlying funds in which the Portfolio invests; (2) management’s representations of the limited size of the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group; and (3) management’s representations regarding its belief that the Portfolio’s pricing is competitive.

Board Conclusions

After its deliberation, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Contracts are fair and reasonable to each Portfolio and that approval of the continuation of the Contracts is in the best interests of each Portfolio and its shareholders. In doing so, the Board reviewed all factors it considered to be material, including those discussed above. Within the context of its overall conclusions regarding the Contracts, and based on the information provided and management’s related representations, the Board concluded that it was satisfied with management’s responses relating to each Portfolio’s investment performance and the fees payable under the Contracts. During this renewal process, each Board member may have accorded different weight to various factors in reaching his or her conclusions. Based on these conclusions and other factors, the Board voted to renew the Contracts for each Portfolio for the year ending November 30, 2023.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

 

 

 

 

Appendix A

 

AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
PRE-APPROVAL POLICY

 

I.Statement of Principles

 

Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”), the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors or Trustees (the “Committee”) of the Voya funds (each a “Fund,” collectively, the “Funds”) set out on Exhibit A to this Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (“Policy”) is responsible for the oversight of the work of the Funds’ independent auditors. As part of its responsibilities, the Committee must pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the auditors in order to assure that the provision of these services does not impair the auditors’ independence from the Funds. The Committee has adopted, and the Board has ratified, this Policy, which sets out the procedures and conditions under which the services of the independent auditors may be pre-approved.

 

Under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules promulgated in accordance with the Act, the Funds may establish two different approaches to pre-approving audit and non-audit services. The Committee may approve services without consideration of specific case-by-case services (“general pre-approval”) or it may pre-approve specific services (“specific pre-approval”). The Committee believes that the combination of these approaches contemplated in this Policy results in an effective and efficient method for pre-approving audit and non-audit services to be performed by the Funds’ independent auditors. Under this Policy, services that are not of a type that may receive general pre-approval require specific pre-approval by the Committee. Any proposed services that exceed pre-approved cost levels or budgeted amounts will also require the Committee’s specific pre-approval.

 

For both types of approval, the Committee considers whether the subject services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence and that such services are compatible with maintaining the auditors independence. The Committee also considers whether a particular audit firm is in the best position to provide effective and efficient services to the Funds. Reasons that the auditors are in the best position include the auditors’ familiarity with the Funds’ business, personnel, culture, accounting systems, risk profile, and other factors, and whether the services will enhance the Funds’ ability to manage and control risk or improve audit quality. Such factors will be considered as a whole, with no one factor being determinative.

 

The appendices attached to this Policy describe the audit, audit-related, tax-related, and other services that have the Committee’s general pre-approval. For any service that has been approved through general pre-approval, the general pre-approval will remain in place for a period 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Committee determines that a different period is appropriate. The Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the independent auditors without specific pre-approval. The Committee will revise the list of services subject to general pre-approval as appropriate. This Policy does not serve as a delegation to Fund management of the Committee’s duty to pre-approve services performed by the Funds’ independent auditors.

 

 1 

 

 

II.Audit Services

 

The annual audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the Committee’s specific pre-approval. Audit services are those services that are normally provided by auditors in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements or those that generally only independent auditors can reasonably provide. They include the Funds’ annual financial statement audit and procedures that the independent auditors must perform in order to form an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements (e.g., information systems and procedural reviews and testing). The Committee will monitor the audit services engagement and approve any changes in terms, conditions or fees deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate.

 

The Committee may grant general pre-approval to other audit services, such as statutory audits and services associated with SEC registration statements, periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or issued in connection with securities offerings.

 

The Committee has pre-approved the audit services listed on Appendix A. The Committee must specifically approve all audit services not listed on Appendix A.

 

III.Audit-related Services

 

Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or the review of the Funds’ financial statements or are traditionally performed by the independent auditors. The Committee believes that the provision of audit-related services will not impair the independent auditors’ independence, and therefore may grant pre-approval to audit-related services. Audit-related services include accounting consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as “audit services;” assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; agreed-upon or expanded audit procedures relating to accounting and/or billing records required to respond to or comply with financial, accounting or regulatory reporting matters; and assistance with internal control reporting requirements under Form N-CEN or Form N-CSR.

 

The Committee has pre-approved the audit-related services listed on Appendix B. The Committee must specifically approve all audit-related services not listed on Appendix B.

 

IV.Tax Services

 

The Committee believes the independent auditors can provide tax services to the Funds, including tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice, without compromising the auditors’ independence. Therefore, the Committee may grant general pre-approval with respect to tax services historically provided by the Funds’ independent auditors that do not, in the Committee’s view, impair auditor independence and that are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.

 

The Committee will not grant pre-approval if the independent auditors initially recommends a transaction the sole business purpose of which is tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Committee may consult outside counsel to determine that tax planning and reporting positions are consistent with this Policy.

 

 

 

 

The Committee has pre-approved the tax-related services listed on Appendix C. The Committee must specifically approve all tax-related services not listed on Appendix C.

 

V.Other Services

 

The Committee believes it may grant approval of non-audit services that are permissible services for independent auditors to a Fund. The Committee has determined to grant general pre-approval to other services that it believes are routine and recurring, do not impair auditor independence, and are consistent with SEC rules on auditor independence.

 

The Committee has pre-approved the non-audit services listed on Appendix D. The Committee must specifically approve all non-audit services not listed on Appendix D.

 

A list of the SEC’s prohibited non-audit services is attached to this Policy as Appendix E. The SEC’s rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise definitions of these impermissible services and the applicability of exceptions to certain of the SEC’s prohibitions.

 

VI.Pre-approval of Fee levels and Budgeted Amounts

 

The Committee will annually establish pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for audit, audit-related, tax and non-audit services to be provided to the Funds by the independent auditors. Any proposed services exceeding these levels or amounts require the Committee’s specific pre-approval. The Committee considers fees for audit and non-audit services when deciding whether to pre-approve services. The Committee may determine, for a pre-approval period of 12 months, the appropriate ratio between the total amount of fees for the Fund’s audit, audit-related, and tax services (including fees for services provided to Fund affiliates that are subject to pre-approval), and the total amount of fees for certain permissible non-audit services for the Fund classified as other services (including any such services provided to Fund affiliates that are subject to pre-approval).

 

VII.Procedures

 

Requests or applications for services to be provided by the independent auditors will be submitted to management. If management determines that the services do not fall within those services generally pre-approved by the Committee and set out in the appendices to these procedures, management will submit the services to the Committee or its delagee. Any such submission will include a detailed description of the services to be rendered. Notwithstanding this paragraph, the Committee will, on a quarterly basis, receive from the independent auditors a list of services provided for the previous calendar quarter on a cumulative basis by the auditors during the Pre-Approval Period.

 

 

 

 

VIII.Delegation

 

The Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of the Committee’s members. Any member or members to whom such pre-approval authority is delegated must report any pre-approval decisions, including any pre-approved services, to the Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Committee will identify any member to whom pre-approval authority is delegated in writing. The member will retain such authority for a period of 12 months from the date of pre-approval unless the Committee determines that a different period is appropriate. The period of delegated authority may be terminated by the Committee or at the option of the member.

 

IX.Additional Requirements

 

The Committee will take any measures the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to oversee the work of the independent auditors and to assure the auditors’ independence from the Funds. This may include reviewing a formal written statement from the independent auditors delineating all relationships between the auditors and the Funds, consistent with Independence Standards Board No. 1, and discussing with the auditors their methods and procedures for ensuring independence.
