C000258271 Investment Objective and Strategy

Venerable Bond Index Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Venerable Variable Insurance Trust.

Investment objective

"The Venerable Bond Index Fund (the ""Fund"") seeks to replicate the performance of a benchmark index that measures investment grade bonds traded in the U.S. as closely as possible before the deduction of Fund expenses."

Principal investment strategy

"The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in companies that are included in a benchmark index that measures investment grade bonds traded in the U.S. Typically, the actual percentage is considerably higher. The Fund uses an index-based investment approach designed to track the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (the ""Index""), a widely recognized benchmark of U.S. investment grade fixed income performance. The Index includes investment grade, U.S. denominated, fixed-rate taxable bonds. Venerable Investment Advisers, LLC (the ""Adviser"") has engaged Franklin Advisers, Inc. (""FT"") to provide the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio pursuant to investment guidelines provided by the Adviser. The Fund will generally employ a stratified sampling approach to build a portfolio whose broad characteristics match those of the Index without purchasing every security in that Index.

The Fund's stratified sampling approach seeks to match the return and other characteristics of the Index by selecting a representative sample of component securities for the Fund based on the characteristics of the Index and the particular securities, such as interest rate sensitivity, credit quality and sector diversification. The Fund's securities holdings may differ from those represented in the Index. The Fund pursues a strategy of being fully invested by exposing its cash to the performance of the Index by purchasing index swaps and index futures contracts, which are derivatives. The Fund may concentrate its investments (i.e., hold more than 25% of its total assets) in an industry or group of industries to the extent that the Index is so concentrated. The Fund may acquire securities on a ""when-issued,"" ""delayed delivery"" or ""to-be-announced"" basis.

These transactions are arrangements under which the Fund buys securities that have been authorized but not yet issued, with payment for and delivery of the security scheduled for a future time. The Fund is classified as a diversified investment company, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the ""1940 Act""). However, the Fund may become non-diversified under the 1940 Act without the approval of shareholders solely as a result of change in relative market capitalization or index weighting of one or more constituents of the Index. A non-diversified fund generally invests a greater portion of its assets in a limited number of issuers relative to a diversified fund. The Fund may be non-diversified for an indefinite period."
