C000081637 Investment Objective and Strategy

Voya Russia Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Voya MUTUAL FUNDS.

Investment objective

The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities (including common stocks, preferred stocks, and convertible securities) of Russian companies. The Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days' prior notice of any change in this investment policy. The Fund may invest the other 20% of its assets in debt securities issued by Russian companies and debt securities issued or guaranteed by the Russian government without any restrictions based on investment quality or maturity of the debt securities. The Fund may also invest in the equity securities of companies located outside of Russia, including those companies located in the former Soviet Union. The Fund may invest in other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds, to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules, regulations, and exemptive orders thereunder (1940 Act).

The Fund may use derivatives including, but not limited to, futures, options, swaps, and forward foreign currency exchange contracts for hedging and non-hedging purposes. The Fund may use derivatives as a substitute for taking a position in the underlying asset and/or as part of a strategy to seek to reduce risk, such as interest rate risk, currency risk, and price risk. The sub-adviser (Sub-Adviser) manages the Fund as a core equity product investing primarily in Russian companies and is not constrained by a particular investment style or market capitalization. It may invest in growth or value securities. The Sub-Adviser seeks to invest in companies that are undervalued by the market because their pace of development and earnings growth have been underestimated. The Sub-Adviser also seeks to invest in companies that it believes will experience growth in revenue and profits.

The Sub-Adviser defines a Russian company as a company that: (i) is organized under the laws of, or with principal offices in, Russia; (ii) has 50% or more of its assets in Russia; or (iii) derives 50% or more of its total revenue from sales made in markets in Russia. The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest a significant portion of its assets in a single issuer. The Sub-Adviser may sell securities for a variety of reasons, such as to secure gains, limit losses, or redeploy assets into opportunities believed to be more promising, among others. The Fund may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, up to 33 1 / 3 % of its total assets.
