C000153342 Investment Objective and Strategy

ALPS | Stadion Tactical Growth Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by ALPS Variable Investment Trust.

Investment objective

"The investment objective of the ALPS | Stadion Tactical Growth Portfolio (the ""Portfolio"") is to seek long-term capital appreciation."

Principal investment strategy

"To achieve its investment objective, the Portfolio invests primarily in actively managed or index-based exchange traded funds (""ETFs""), mutual funds and other investment companies, and groups of securities related by index or sector made available through certain brokers at a discount brokerage rate (such as stock baskets, baskets of bonds and other index-or sector-based groups of related securities) (collectively, ""Fund Investments"") that the Adviser or Sub-Adviser believes have the potential for capital appreciation. The Portfolio's investment strategy will emphasize growth style investing, but Fund Investments may also at times have value characteristics. In allocating the Portfolio's assets, the Sub-Adviser uses a proprietary quantitative research process to determine current risk in the broad equity markets, as well as to determine the Portfolio's: ?

optimum cash position; ? weighting between the value and growth segments of the market; ? sector and industry allocation; and ? domestic and international exposure. The Sub-Adviser generally will search for investments that exhibit attractive valuations on several metrics. To participate in markets and market sectors, the Sub-Adviser's investment philosophy emphasizes purchasing Fund Investments, which the Sub-Adviser believes are a convenient way to invest in both broad market indexes and market sector indexes. The Sub-Adviser retains the flexibility to allocate among equity or fixed-income Fund Investments as determined to be suitable for the Portfolio. The Portfolio may invest up to 100% of its assets in Fund Investments that have portfolios comprised of equity securities (including domestic or foreign companies of any size in any sector) or fixed-income securities (including domestic or foreign corporate and/or government bonds issued by any size company, municipality or government body in any sector of any maturity, yield or quality rating, including investment grade and high yield, non-investment grade fixed income securities (commonly known as (""junk bonds"")).The mix of fixed income and equity Fund Investments may be substantially over-weighted or under-weighted in favor of fixed income or equities, depending on prevailing market conditions.

The Portfolio may participate in a limited number of industry sectors, but will not concentrate its investments in any particular sector. The Sub-Adviser generally sells a security under one or more of the following conditions: ? the security reaches the Sub-Adviser's appraised value; ? there is a more attractively priced Fund Investment or other security as an alternative; ? the optimum Cash Position has changed based on the Sub-Adviser's quantitative research; ? the weighting between the value and growth segments of the market have changed based on the Sub-Adviser's quantitative research; ? the weighting between sector and industry allocations have changed based on the Sub-Adviser's quantitative research; or ? the weighting between domestic and international exposure have changed based on the Sub-Adviser's quantitative research."
