Blackrock S&P 500 Index Portfolio

AS OF 2024-03-31
INVESTMENT STRATEGY:

The Fund is a collective investment trust maintained and managed by BlackRock Institutional Trust Company, N.A. ("BTC"). The Fund shall be invested and reinvested in a portfolio of equity securities with the objective of approximating as closely as practicable the capitalization weighted total rate of return of that segment of the U.S. market for publicly traded equity securities represented by the larger capitalized companies. The criterion for selection of investments shall be the S&P 500 Index (the Underlying Index). BTC uses a "passive" or indexing approach to try to achieve the Fund's investment objective.

Principal Risks

Principal Risks include: Equity Securities, Index Correlation/Tracking Error, Large Cap, Private Fund and Wrap Fee. See disclosure for details.

Equity Securities The value of equity securities, which include common, preferred, and convertible preferred stocks, will fluctuate based on changes in their issuers' financial conditions, as well as overall market and economic conditions, and can decline in the event of deteriorating issuer, market, or economic conditions.

Index Correlation/Tracking Error A portfolio that tracks an index is subject to the risk that certain factors may cause the portfolio to track its target index less closely, including if the advisor selects securities that are not fully representative of the index. The portfolio will generally reflect the performance of its target index even if the index does not perform well, and it may underperform the index after factoring in fees, expenses, transaction costs, and the size and timing of shareholder purchases and redemptions.

Large Cap Concentrating assets in large-capitalization stocks may subject the portfolio to the risk that those stocks underperform other capitalizations or the market as a whole. Large-cap companies may be unable to respond as quickly as small- and mid-cap companies can to new competitive pressures and may lack the growth potential of those securities. Historically, large-cap companies do not recover as quickly as smaller companies do from market declines.

Private Fund The fund is not a mutual fund and is privately offered. Prospectuses are not required and prices are not available in local publications.

Wrap Fee The expense ratio is adjusted to reflect the additional wrap fee of 0.26%.
