C000190649 Investment Objective and Strategy

High Income describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Ivy Variable Insurance Portfolios.

Investment objective

Nomura VIP High Income Series seeks to provide total return through a combination of high current income and capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

Nomura VIP High Income Series seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of high-yield, high-risk, fixed-income securities, including secured and unsecured loan assignments, loan participations and other loan instruments (loans), of US and foreign issuers, the risks of which are, in the judgment of Delaware Management Company (Manager), the Series investment manager, and Nomura Corporate Research and Asset Management Inc (the Sub-Advisor, together the Management Team) consistent with the Series objective. The Series invests primarily in lower-quality debt securities, which include debt securities rated BB+ or lower by S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global, Inc. (S&P), or comparably rated by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) or, if unrated, determined by the Management Team to be of comparable quality.

The Series may invest up to 100% of its total assets in non-investment-grade debt securities, commonly called high-yield or junk bonds, which include debt securities rated BB+ or lower by S&P, or comparably rated by another NRSRO or, if unrated, determined by the Management Team to be of comparable quality. The Series may invest in fixed-income securities of any maturity. The Series may invest up to 100% of its total assets in foreign securities that are denominated in U.S. dollars or foreign currencies. Many of the companies in which the Series may invest have diverse operations, with products or services in foreign markets. Therefore, the Series may have indirect exposure to various foreign markets through investments in these companies, even if the Series is not invested directly in such markets.

The Series may invest in restricted securities. At times, the Series may invest in a wholly-owned company acting as an investment vehicle for the Series to effect certain investments consistent with the Series investment objectives (Subsidiary). The Series investment in the Subsidiary is expected to provide the Series with exposure to certain investments in accordance with the limits of the federal tax laws. The Series complies with the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (1940 Act), that govern investment policies, capital structure and leverage on an aggregate basis with the Subsidiary. The Subsidiary complies with the 1940 Acts provisions relating to affiliated transactions and custody of assets.
