C000144893 Investment Objective and Strategy

JNL/S&P International 5 Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by JNL Series Trust.

Investment objective

The investment objective of the Fund is capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in the stocks of foreign companies located in developed countries throughout the world, excluding the United States, that are identified through a disciplined, rules-based investment process. The Fund allocates all of its net assets among the underlying regional strategies listed below: S&P Asia Pac Ex Japan Strategy This strategy focuses on companies located in developed countries in the Asia-Pacific (excluding Japan) geographic region that have delivered attractive cash returns to shareholders while seeking to avoid companies with less attractive profitability. S&P Canada Strategy This strategy focuses on companies located in Canada that the Sub-Adviser believes to have attractive free cash flows in relation to equity market capitalization while seeking to avoid companies that the Sub-Adviser believes have undergone unattractive changes to capital structure.

S&P Europe Strategy This strategy focuses on companies located in Western Europe that the Sub-Adviser believes have above average free cash flows in relation to equity market valuation and attractive price momentum. S&P Japan Strategy This strategy focuses on companies located in Japan that the Sub-Adviser believes have attractive dividend yields while attempting to avoid overpaying through valuation metrics. S&P Middle East Strategy This strategy focuses on companies located in Israel that the Sub-Adviser believes to have strong free cash flows in relation to equity market valuation and attractive appreciation prospects in the equity market. While each of these underlying regional strategies seeks to provide capital appreciation, each underlying regional strategy follows a different principal investment strategy.

Each of the underlying regional strategies invests by selecting from the stock of companies included in a corresponding regional index, each of which is a sub-index of the S&P Developed Ex-U.S. LargeMid Index. The S&P Developed Ex-U.S. LargeMid Index measures the performance of companies located in developed countries around the world, excluding the United States. As of December 31, 2017, the range of market capitalizations of companies included in the index was between $283.35 million and $307.26 billion. The size of companies in the S&P Developed Ex-U.S. LargeMid Index changes with market conditions, which can result in changes to the market capitalization range of companies in the index. The securities for each underlying regional strategy are selected only once annually on each stock selection date.

The initial stock selection date was on or about September 15, 2014. The Fund is rebalanced annually between each of the above specialized strategies on or the first business day of March. Standard & Poors Investment Advisory Services LLC (SPIAS) and BNY Mellon Asset Management North America Corporation (Sub-Advisers) generally use a buy and hold strategy, trading only on or around each stock selection date, when cash flow activity occurs, and for dividend reinvestment purposes. The Sub-Advisers may also trade for mergers if the original stock included in the Funds portfolio is not the surviving company. The Fund may invest in a combination of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to assist with fund rebalances and to meet redemption or purchase requests. The Fund may invest in financial futures, a type of derivative, to obtain market exposure consistent with the Funds investment objective and strategies, to provide liquidity for cash flows, to hedge dividend accruals or for other purposes that facilitate meeting the Funds objective.

In addition, the Fund may use foreign currency forward contracts, a type of derivative, to maintain appropriate currency exposures. The Fund is a non-diversified fund, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), and may invest more of its assets in fewer issuers than diversified mutual funds.
