Investment Objective

The Fund seeks to provide a high current income with a secondary objective of capital appreciation.

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

This table shows the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund. The table does not reflect charges, fees or expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy through which Fund shares are offered as an investment option. If those charges, fees or expenses were reflected, the fees and expenses shown in the table would be higher. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the fee table or example below. For information about these charges, fees and expenses, please refer to the applicable contract or policy prospectus.

Annual Fund Operating Expenses

(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

Management Fees			0.52	%
Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees			0.25	%
Other Expenses			0.14	%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses			0.91	%

Example

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same. This Example does not reflect charges, fees or expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy, and would be higher if it did. The Example reflects contractual fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements only for the duration of the current commitment, if applicable. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

		1 Year		3 Years		5 Years		10 Years
Guardian Multi-Sector Bond VIP Fund		$	93			$	290			$	504			$	1,120

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in the Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. As of the end of its most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 343% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at the time of investment) in fixed income investments.

The Fund's fixed income investments include: U.S. and foreign corporate debt securities; U.S. government securities and securities of foreign governments (which may include securities issued, guaranteed or otherwise backed by the government or its agencies, instrumentalities or other sponsored enterprises) and supranational entities; U.S. and foreign below investment grade bonds; mortgage- and other asset-backed securities, including collateralized mortgage obligations and collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"); inflation-linked investments (e.g., Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities or "TIPS"); and cash-equivalent instruments. These investments may also include "tax credit bonds" (including Build America Bonds, clean renewable energy bonds and qualified tax credit bonds) and tax-exempt bonds as well as loans of any maturity and credit quality. The Fund may also invest in convertible securities and warrants. The CLOs in which the Fund invests generally will be investment grade.

The Fund's foreign investments may include debt securities issued by emerging markets countries and companies whose principal business activities are located in emerging market countries. The Fund may, from time to time, invest a substantial portion of its assets in issuers in any country or group of countries. In addition, a substantial portion of the Fund's assets may be invested in agency residential and commercial mortgage- and other asset-backed securities. In addition, as a substitute for investments directly in debt securities, the Fund may seek exposure to such debt securities through investments in exchange-traded funds ("ETFs").

Under certain market conditions, the Fund may use futures contracts, options, swaps, and forward contracts to seek to (i) hedge various investments, (ii) manage or adjust duration and yield curve positioning, (iii) manage risk, (iv) enhance potential returns, or (v) as substitutes for permitted Fund investments. Duration is a measure of a bond price's sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Yield curve positioning represents the relationship between the interest rates of bonds having the same credit quality but different maturity dates.

The Fund may invest in investments of any maturity. Park Avenue Institutional Advisers LLC (the "Manager") attempts to manage the Fund's interest rate risk through the Manager's management of the average duration of the investments the Fund holds in its portfolio. The Fund expects to maintain an average duration plus or minus two years of the bond market's duration, as measured by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index (which was approximately 6.21 years as of March 31, 2024). The Fund may invest up to 50% of its net assets in below investment grade securities or unrated securities considered by the Manager to be of comparable quality (commonly referred to as "high yield" or "junk" bonds). An investment is considered below investment grade if it is rated Ba1 by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. or BB+ by Standard & Poor's Ratings Group or Fitch Ratings Inc., or lower or, if unrated, is considered by the Manager to be of comparable quality. The Fund will consider a security to be below investment grade if at least two of the three rating agencies rates it below investment grade as described above. When a rating from only two of the rating agencies is available, the lower rating will be used.

The Manager allocates the Fund's investments based on its detailed analysis of market, economic, political, and other factors, and of the potential for the various obligations to provide high current income and/or capital appreciation. The Manager selects specific investments for the Fund by considering a wide variety of factors, including yield, potential for appreciation in value, the credit quality of the issuer or collateral, maturity, and the degree of perceived risk associated with a specific investment relative to the potential for favorable investment returns and to other investments. The Manager typically may sell investments when it believes that they no longer offer attractive potential future returns compared to other investment opportunities or that they present undesirable risks, or in an attempt to limit losses on investments that may decline or have declined in value.

Principal Investment Risks

The risks summarized below are the principal risks of investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment objective and it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund.

Market Risk. The financial and securities markets are very volatile and may be affected by political, regulatory, social, economic, and other global market developments and disruptions, including those arising out of geopolitical events, public health emergencies (such as the spread of infectious diseases, pandemics and epidemics), natural disasters, terrorism, and governmental or quasi-governmental actions. The market value of securities in which the Fund invests is based upon the market's perception of value and is not necessarily an objective measure of the securities' value. Such changes may be rapid and unpredictable. These events may negatively affect issuers, industries and markets worldwide

and adversely affect the Fund and its investments. The price, value or liquidity of the Fund's investments may decline and will fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, in response to general market conditions or other factors. Different sectors of the fixed income market, issuers, and security types may react differently to such developments. The fixed income investments in which the Fund invests may underperform other segments of the fixed income market or the fixed income market as a whole. Although prices of fixed income investments tend to rise and fall less dramatically than those of equity securities, they may experience heightened volatility and limited liquidity during certain market and economic conditions.

Issuer Risk. The Fund's investments may be adversely affected by a number of factors that directly relate to the issuer of securities held by the Fund, such as its earnings prospects and overall financial position. In addition, an issuer in which the Fund invests, or to which it has exposure, may perform poorly because of poor management decisions or other events, conditions, or factors, which could also negatively affect the Fund.

Active Management Risk. The Fund is actively managed by the Manager. The Fund may actively and frequently trade portfolio securities, which may lead to higher transaction costs that may negatively affect the Fund's performance. There is no guarantee that the Manager's investment techniques, risk analysis, and judgment implemented in making investment decisions for the Fund will be accurate or will produce the desired outcome. As a result, the Fund may be adversely affected and may underperform its benchmark index or funds with similar investment objectives.

Credit Risk. The Fund may lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income or debt instrument is unable or unwilling, or is perceived as unable or unwilling, to pay interest or repay principal on time or otherwise to honor its obligations. A fixed income or debt instrument held by the Fund may be adversely affected by changes in, or the market's perception of, the financial strength (or credit rating) of its issuer or guarantor or the credit rating of the instrument. Credit ratings may decrease rapidly and may not be an accurate assessment of liquidity or credit risk. Actual or perceived changes in economic, social, health, financial or political conditions in general or that affect a particular type of instrument, issuer, guarantor or counterparty can reduce the ability of the party to meet its obligations, which can affect the credit quality, liquidity and/or value of an instrument. The value of an instrument also may decline for reasons that relate directly to the issuer, guarantor or counterparty, such as management performance, financial leverage and reduced demand for goods and services.

Interest Rate Risk. The value of the Fund's investments may decline because of a change in interest rates. The negative impact on fixed income and debt instruments from potential interest rate changes could be swift and significant, including falling market values, increased redemptions and reduced liquidity. The value of an instrument with a longer duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a similar instrument with a shorter duration. Very low or negative interest rates may magnify interest rate risk. Low interest rates (or negative interest rates) may magnify the risks associated with rising interest rates. There is the risk that the income generated by investments may not keep pace with inflation. Actions by governments and central banking authorities can result in increases or decreases in interest rates. Periods of higher inflation could cause such authorities to raise interest rates, which may adversely affect the Fund and its investments. The Fund may also be subject to heightened interest rate risk when the Federal Reserve raises interest rates. Duration is a measure of a bond price's sensitivity to a given change in interest rates. For example, the price of a bond with a duration of three years would be expected to fall approximately 3% if interest rates were to rise by one percentage point. In addition, the Fund is subject to the risk that the Fund's income will decline because of falling interest rates, including negative interest rates, if the Fund holds floating or variable rate debt securities or if an issuer fails to pay interest and principal in a timely manner. Other factors that may affect the value of debt securities include, but are not limited to, economic, political, public health, and other crises and responses by governments and companies to such crises.

Mortgage-Backed and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities are subject to the risks associated with fixed income investments. The value of mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities held by the Fund may be adversely affected by, among other things, changes or perceived changes in interest rates and may exhibit additional volatility during periods of rising interest rates as a result of extended duration. In addition, mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities are subject to the risk that underlying obligations will be repaid sooner (known as "prepayment risk") or later (known as "extension risk") than expected because of changes in interest rates, either of which may result in lower than expected returns for the Fund. Because mortgage-backed securities are backed by mortgage loans, they also are subject to risks associated with the ownership of real estate and the real estate industry.

High-Yield Fixed Income Investment Risk. High-yield, below investment-grade and unrated fixed income investments may be less liquid and more volatile than investment-grade fixed income investments and are considered predominantly speculative with respect to their capacity to pay interest and principal. These investments may be particularly difficult to value accurately and sell at an advantageous price or time and may experience higher default rates than higher rated investments. In addition, high-yield fixed income investments may be particularly sensitive to credit risk and interest rate risk and may be adversely affected by, among other things, negative perceptions of high-yield investments generally and issuer-specific developments. In times of unusual or adverse market, economic or political conditions, these securities may experience higher than normal default rates.

Collateralized Loan Obligation Risk. CLOs bear many of the same risks as other forms of asset-backed securities, including interest rate risk, credit risk and default risk. As they are backed by pools of loans, CLOs also bear similar risks to investing in loans directly. CLOs issue classes or "tranches" that vary in risk and yield. CLOs may experience substantial losses attributable to loan defaults. Losses caused by defaults on underlying assets are borne first by the holders of subordinate tranches. The Fund's investment in a CLO may decrease in market value when the CLO experiences loan defaults or credit impairment, the disappearance of a subordinate tranche, or market anticipation of defaults and investor aversion to CLO securities as a class.

Convertible Securities Risk. Debt securities that are convertible into preferred or common stocks are subject to the risks of both debt and equity securities. The market value of a convertible security performs like that of a regular debt security but because a portion of the convertible security's value is based on common stock into which it may be converted, a convertible security is also subject to the same types of market and issuer risks that apply to the underlying common stock. Certain types of convertible securities may decline in value or lose their value entirely in the event the issuer's financial condition becomes significantly impaired.

Counterparty Risk. Certain investments or investment transactions are subject to the risk that the Fund's counterparty will become insolvent or otherwise be unwilling or unable to perform its obligations in a timely manner or at all. As a result, the Fund may be unable to recover its investment from the counterparty or may obtain a limited recovery, and/or recovery may be delayed, which may result in a loss to the Fund.

Derivatives Risk. Derivatives are instruments whose value depends on (or is derived from) the value of an underlying security, asset, or other benchmark. Derivatives (including short exposures through derivatives) pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in other investments, including potentially heightened liquidity and valuation risk, counterparty risk, market risk, operational risk and legal risk. In addition, certain derivatives result in leverage, which can result in losses substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivatives by the Fund.

Emerging Markets Risk. The risks associated with foreign investments are heightened for investments in emerging markets as emerging markets are considered to be less developed than developing countries. In particular, investments in emerging markets may present market, currency, liquidity, valuation, and other risks that are different from, or greater than, the risks of investing in developed foreign markets. The risks of investing emerging markets are elevated under adverse market conditions. Furthermore, investments in or exposure to emerging markets are generally subject to additional risks, including the risks associated with trading in smaller markets, lower volumes of trading, and being subject to lower levels of government regulation and less extensive and transparent accounting, auditing, recordkeeping, financial reporting and other requirements, sensitivity to adverse political, economic or social events affecting the region where an emerging market is located, and the potential expropriation or nationalization of foreign deposits or assets. Emerging markets may be especially volatile and securities transactions in emerging markets may be subject to delayed settlement.

Foreign Investment and Currency Risk. Foreign investments, or exposure to foreign markets, present greater risks than investing in securities of U.S. issuers. Foreign securities are particularly susceptible to liquidity and valuation risk and may be especially volatile. These investments are subject to additional risks, including: smaller markets; differing reporting, accounting, and auditing standards; nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation; foreign currency fluctuations, currency blockage, or replacement; potential for default on sovereign debt; and political changes or diplomatic developments, which may include the imposition of economic sanctions or other measures by the United States or other governments and supranational organizations. Economic sanctions may be, and have been, imposed against certain countries, organizations, companies, entities and/or individuals. Economic sanctions and other similar governmental actions or developments could, among other things, adversely impact the value and liquidity of the Fund's foreign investments and the Fund's ability to invest in foreign investments and thus make the Fund's investments in such securities less liquid or liquid. The Fund's foreign investments that are denominated in or provide exposure to a foreign currency may be

negatively affected by a decline in the foreign currency's value relative to the U.S. dollar. The value of foreign currencies may fluctuate quickly and significantly and may make the return on an investment increase or decrease, unrelated to the quality or performance of the investments itself. Foreign investments may also be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation, less public information, and less stringent investor protections and disclosure standards.

Forwards and Futures Contracts. Forwards and futures contracts are derivative contracts that obligate a purchaser to purchase, and a seller to sell, a specific amount of an asset (e.g., a currency or security) at a specified future date and price. In addition to the risks generally applicable to derivatives, these contracts are particularly subject to the risk of imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the asset underlying a contract or the asset held by the Fund being hedged and the price of the forward or futures contract, as well as losses caused by unanticipated market movements, which are potentially unlimited.

Geographic Focus Risk. To the extent the Fund's investments focus on one or more specific geographic regions or a small group of countries the Fund's performance will be particularly susceptible to conditions and developments relating to such region(s) or countries. Issuers in a single country, a small number of countries, or a particular geographic region can react similarly to market, currency, economic, political, regulatory, geopolitical and other conditions. In addition, the Fund may be subject to greater volatility than a more geographically diversified fund.

Inflation-Linked Investments Risk. Inflation-linked investments, including TIPS, tend to react to changes in real interest rates (i.e., nominal interest rates minus the expected impact of inflation) and the principal and interest payments on such investments are adjusted periodically based on the inflation rate. The price of an inflation-linked investment generally decreases when real interest rates rise and increases when real interest rates fall and may be more volatile than other fixed-income instruments. During periods of deflation, the Fund may receive no income from such investments and the Fund's use of these investments may be unsuccessful. With respect to TIPS, the United States Treasury guarantees the repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity, as adjusted for inflation. For other inflation-lined investments that do not provide a similar guarantee, the adjusted principal value of the investment to be repaid at maturity is subject to credit risk.

Liquidity and Valuation Risk. The Fund's investments may be difficult to sell at a favorable time or price. To meet redemption requests or otherwise raise cash, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at a disadvantageous time and/or price. In addition, it may be difficult for the Fund to accurately value investments or purchase or sell investments within a reasonable time at the price at which it has been valued for purposes of the Fund's net asset value. Certain investments, including thinly-traded securities, are particularly susceptible to liquidity and valuation risk. The Fund's fixed-income instruments may experience reduced liquidity as a result of the lack of an active market or limited dealer market-making capacity. Liquidity risk may be magnified during periods of rising interest rates or periods of significant shareholder redemptions.

Loan Risk. Investments in loans are particularly subject to, among other risks, credit risk, interest rate risk, and counterparty risk. The Fund's investments in loans can be difficult to value accurately and may be more susceptible to liquidity risk than fixed income (or debt) investments of similar credit quality and/or maturity. Investments or transactions in loans are often subject to long settlement periods (potentially longer than seven days), which could limit the ability of the Fund to invest sale proceeds in other investments and to use proceeds to meet its current redemption obligations. As a result, the Fund may be forced to sell other, more desirable, liquid investments, sell illiquid investments at a loss or take other measures to raise cash. Loans often are rated below investment-grade and may be unrated and subject the Fund to the risk that the value of the collateral for the loan may be insufficient to cover the borrower's obligations should the borrower fail to make payments or become insolvent. Participations in loans may subject the Fund to the credit risk of both the borrower and the issuer of the participation and may make enforcement of loan covenants (if any) more difficult for the Fund as legal action may have to go through the issuer of the participations. Investments in loans that lack or possess fewer or contingent contractual restrictive covenants are particularly susceptible to the risks associated with these investments. In addition, loans and other similar investments may not be considered "securities" and, as a result, the Fund may not be entitled to rely on the anti-fraud protections under the federal securities laws and instead may have to resort to state law and direct claims.

Municipal Obligations Risk. Issuers, including governmental issuers, may be unable to pay their obligations as they come due. The values of municipal obligations that depend on a specific revenue source to fund their payment obligations may fluctuate as a result of changes in the cash flows generated by the revenue source or changes in the priority of the municipal obligation to receive the cash flows generated by the revenue source. In addition, changes in federal tax laws or

the activity of an issuer may adversely affect the tax-exempt status of municipal obligations. Loss of tax-exempt status may result in a significant decline in the values of such municipal obligations. Such uncertainties could cause increased volatility in the municipal securities market and could negatively impact the Fund's net asset value.

Options Risk. An option is a derivative contract where, for a premium payment or fee, the purchaser of the option is given the right but not the obligation to buy (a call option) or sell (a put option) the underlying asset (or settle for cash an amount based on an underlying asset, rate or index) at a specified price (the exercise price) during a period of time or on a specified date or dates. In addition to the risks generally applicable to derivatives, the prices of options can be highly volatile and the Fund's use of options can lower total returns and may affect the Fund's portfolio turnover rate and the amount of brokerage commissions paid by the Fund.

Other Investment Companies Risk. To the extent the Fund invests in other investment companies (such as ETFs), the Fund will incur a pro rata share of the expenses of these investment companies and the Fund will be subject to the risks associated with these investment companies. An ETF may trade in the secondary market at a price below or above the value of its underlying portfolio and may not be liquid. In addition, an ETF may not replicate exactly the performance of the index it seeks to track for a number of reasons.

Sovereign Debt Risk. The debt securities issued by sovereign entities may decline as a result of default or other adverse credit event resulting from a sovereign debtor's unwillingness or inability to repay principal and pay interest in a timely manner, which may be affected by a variety of factors, including its cash flow situation, the extent of its reserves, the availability of sufficient foreign exchange on the date a payment is due, the relative size of the debt service burden to the economy as a whole, the sovereign debtor's policy toward international lenders, and the political constraints to which a sovereign debtor may be subject. Sovereign debt risk is increased for emerging market issuers.

Swaps Risk. Swap agreements are derivatives contracts where the parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments. In addition to the risks generally applicable to derivatives, risks associated with swap agreements include adverse changes in the returns of the underlying instruments, failure of the counterparties to perform under the agreement's terms and the possible lack of liquidity with respect to the agreements.

U.S. Government Securities Risk. U.S. government securities may or may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and are subject to the risks associated with fixed-income instruments, particularly interest rate risk and credit risk. The Fund is subject to the risk that the U.S. government will not make timely payments on its debt or provide financial support to U.S. government agencies, instrumentalities or sponsored enterprises if those entities are not able to meet their financial obligations.

Warrants Risk. A warrant grants the holder the right but not the obligation to purchase from an issuer (a call warrant) or sell to an issuer (a put warrant) equity securities of the issuer at a specific price for a specific period of time. The value of a warrant may not necessarily reflect the value of the underlying securities and is subject to the risks associated with the underlying securities, including market risk. Warrant holders do not receive dividends or have voting or credit right. A warrant ceases to have value if not exercised prior to its expiration date.

Portfolio Turnover Risk. To the extent the Fund engages in active trading, it may have high portfolio turnover. Frequent purchases and sales of portfolio investments may result in higher Fund expenses, such as higher brokerage fees or other transaction costs, which may negatively affect the Fund's performance.
