C000087821 Investment Objective and Strategy

CTIVP - Wells Fargo Short Duration Government Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Columbia Funds Variable Series Trust II.

Investment objective

CTIVP SM – Wells Fargo Short Duration Government Fund (the Fund) seeks to provide shareholders with current income consistent with capital preservation.

Principal investment strategy

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (including the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in U.S. Government obligations, including debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored entities. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets within non-government mortgage and asset-backed securities. In pursuit of its objective, the Fund will purchase only securities that are rated, at the time of purchase, within the two highest rating categories assigned by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization, or if deemed to be of comparable quality. As part of the Funds investment strategy, it may invest in stripped securities (securities that have been transformed from a principal amount with periodic interest coupons into a series of zero-coupon bonds, with the range of maturities matching the coupon payment dates and the redemption date of the principal amount) or enter into mortgage dollar rolls and reverse repurchase agreements.

In addition, the Fund may invest in mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies, and to a lesser extent, other securities rated AA- or Aa3 that the Funds subadviser believes will sufficiently outperform U.S. Treasuries. Generally, the portfolios overall dollar-weighted average effective duration is less than that of a 3-year U.S. Treasury note. The Fund may invest in privately placed and other securities or instruments that are purchased and sold pursuant to Rule 144A or other exemptions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act), subject to liquidity determinations and certain regulatory restrictions. The Fund may invest in derivatives, such as futures contracts (including interest rate futures) to hedge interest rate exposure of the Fund. The Funds investment strategy may involve the frequent trading of portfolio securities.
