SPDR SSgA MULTI-ASSET REAL RETURN ETF — PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The following performance chart of the Fund’s total return at net asset value, the total return based on market price and its benchmark index is provided for comparative purposes only and represents the periods noted. The Fund’s per share net asset value (“NAV”) is the value of one share of the Fund and is calculated by dividing the value of total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. The NAV return is based on the NAV of the Fund and the market return is based on the market price per share of the Fund. The market price used to calculate the market return is determined by using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lowest offer on the exchange on which the shares of the Fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Since shares of the Fund did not trade in the secondary market until one day after the Fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary market trading in shares of the Fund (4/25/12, 4/26/12, respectively), the NAV of the Fund is used as a proxy for the secondary market trading price to calculate market returns. NAV and market returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV. Market returns do not include brokerage commissions that may be payable on secondary market transactions. If brokerage commissions were included market returns would be lower.

An index is a statistical measure of a specified financial market or sector. An index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities and therefore does not reflect deductions for fees or expenses. In comparison, the Fund’s performance is negatively impacted by these deductions.

Performance quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so you may have a gain or loss when shares are sold. Current performance may be higher or lower than that quoted. Visit www.spdrs.com for most recent month-end performance. The returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the redemption or sale of Fund shares. The total expense ratio for SPDR SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return ETF as stated in the Fees and Expenses table of the prospectus dated October 31, 2013 is 0.70%.

(1) The per share amounts and percentages include each Fund’s proportionate share of income and expenses of their respective Portfolio.

(2) Per share numbers have been calculated using average shares outstanding, which more appropriately presents the per share data for the period.

(3) Amounts shown in this caption for a share outstanding may not accord with the change in aggregate gains and losses in securities for the fiscal period because of the timing of sales and repurchases of Fund shares in relation to fluctuating market values for the Fund.

(4) Amount is less than $0.005 per share.

(5) Total return is calculated assuming a purchase of shares at net asset value on the first day and a sale at net asset value on the last day of each period reported. Distributions are assumed, for the purpose of this calculation, to be reinvested at net asset value per share on the respective payment dates of each Fund. Total return for periods of less than one year is not annualized. Broker commission charges are not included in this calculation.

(6) Annualized.

(7) Portfolio turnover rate is from their respective Portfolio.

SSgA ACTIVE ETF TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2013 (Unaudited)

1. Organization

SSgA Active ETF Trust (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), is an open-end investment management company that was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on March 30, 2011.

As of December 31, 2013, the Trust offered five (5) portfolios, each of which represents a separate series of beneficial interest in the Trust (each referred to as a “Fund”, collectively as the “Funds”). The financial statements herein relate to the following five (5) Funds: SPDR SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return ETF, SPDR SSgA Income Allocation ETF, SPDR SSgA Global Allocation ETF, SPDR Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan ETF and SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF.

The Trust is part of a master-feeder structure and each Fund invests substantially all of its assets in interests of its respective master portfolio; the SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return Portfolio, SSgA Income Allocation Portfolio, SSgA Global Allocation Portfolio, Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan Portfolio and SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond Portfolio (each referred to as a “Portfolio”; collectively as “Portfolios”), each of which is a series of a separately registered investment company called SSgA Master Trust (“Master Trust”). The investment objective and policies of each Fund are substantially similar to those of its respective Portfolio. The value of each Fund’s investment in its respective Portfolio reflects the Fund’s proportionate interest in the net assets of that Portfolio (99.99% for SPDR SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return ETF, 99.99% for SPDR SSgA Income Allocation ETF, 99.99% for SPDR SSgA Global Allocation ETF, 99.99% for SPDR Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan ETF and 99.99% for SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF, at December 31, 2013). The performance of each Fund is directly affected by the performance of its respective Portfolio. The financial statements of the Portfolios, including their Schedules of Investments, are attached to this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements.

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These financial statements are presented in United States dollars.

Security Valuation

Each Fund records its investments in its respective Portfolio at value each business day. The valuation policies of the Portfolios are discussed in Note 2 of the Portfolios’ Notes to Financial Statements, which are attached to this report.

The Portfolios adopted provisions surrounding fair value measurements and disclosures that define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expand disclosures about fair value measurements. This applies to fair value measurements that are already required or permitted by other accounting standards and is intended to increase consistency of those measurements and applies broadly to securities and other types of assets and liabilities. The summary of the inputs used for each Portfolio, as of December 31, 2013, in valuing each Portfolio’s securities carried at fair value are discussed in Note 2 of the Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are attached to this report.

Investment Income

Net investment income consists of a Fund’s pro-rata share of the net investment income of its respective Portfolio, less expenses of the Fund.

16

SSgA ACTIVE ETF TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

December 31, 2013 (Unaudited)

Expenses

Advisory fees and other expenses, which are directly identifiable to a specific Fund, are applied to that Fund. Trustees’ fees and other expenses which cannot be attributed to a specific Fund are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of the Funds. The Funds are allocated a pro-rata share of the expense of its respective Portfolio.

Equalization

The Funds follow the accounting practice known as “Equalization” by which a portion of the proceeds from sales and costs of reacquiring Fund shares, equivalent on a per share basis to the amount of distributable net investment income on the date of the transaction, is credited or charged to undistributed net investment income. As a result, undistributed net investment income per share is unaffected by sales or reacquisition of Fund shares. Amounts related to Equalization can be found on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Realized gains and losses from security transactions consist of a Fund’s pro-rata share of its respective Portfolio’s realized gains and losses. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Corporate actions (including cash dividends) are recorded net of foreign tax withholdings on the ex-dividend date.

Federal Income Tax

The Funds have qualified and intend to continue to qualify for and elect treatment as “regulated investment companies” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. By so qualifying and electing, each Fund will not be subject to federal income taxes to the extent it distributes its taxable income, including any net realized capital gains, for each fiscal year. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of their net investment income and capital gains, if any, the Funds will not be subject to federal excise tax. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These book-tax differences are primarily due to differing treatments for tax equalization, in-kind transactions for financial statement purposes and losses deferred due to wash sales.

Additionally, based on the Funds’ understanding of the tax rules and rates related to income, gains and transactions for the foreign jurisdictions in which the applicable Funds invest, the Funds will provide for foreign taxes and, where appropriate, deferred foreign taxes. The Funds have reviewed the tax positions for the open tax years as of June 30, 2013 and have determined that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ Financial Statements. The Funds’ federal tax returns are subject to examination by the Funds’ major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Funds recognized interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations.

For the period ended December 31, 2013, the following Funds reclassified non-taxable security gains and losses realized on the in-kind redemption of Creation Units (Note 4) as an increase or decrease to paid in capital in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as follows:

	Net Gain (Loss) Reclassified to Paid in Capital
SPDR SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return ETF	$	1,175,720
SPDR SSgA Income Allocation ETF		907,124
SPDR SSgA Global Allocation ETF		566,601
SPDR Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan ETF		—
SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF		—

SSgA ACTIVE ETF TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

December 31, 2013 (Unaudited)

At December 31, 2013, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards which may be utilized to offset any net realized capital gains. These losses will not expire and are treated as though the losses were incurred on the first day of the next fiscal year:

	Short Term		Long Term
SPDR SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return ETF	$	636,237	$	60,440
SPDR SSgA Income Allocation ETF		949,441		—
SPDR SSgA Global Allocation ETF		159,781		19,428
SPDR Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan ETF		12,487		—

Distributions

Each Fund declares and distributes dividends from net investment income, if any, to its shareholders quarterly (monthly for SPDR Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan ETF and SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF). Each Fund declares and distributes net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

3. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates and Other Related Party Transactions

Advisory Fee

Each Fund has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with SSgA Funds Management, Inc. (the “Adviser” or “SSgA FM”). As compensation for the services rendered, facilities furnished, and expenses borne by the Adviser, each Fund pays the Adviser a fee accrued daily and paid monthly, based on a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets as shown in the following table:

	Annual Rate*
SPDR SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return ETF		0.70	%
SPDR SSgA Income Allocation ETF		0.70
SPDR SSgA Global Allocation ETF		0.35
SPDR Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan ETF		0.90
SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF		0.20

* The Advisory fee is reduced by the proportional amount of the advisory fee, as well as, for SPDR SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return ETF, SPDR SSgA Income Allocation ETF, SPDR SSgA Global Allocation ETF, and SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF, acquired fund fees and expenses of each Fund’s respective Portfolio. For the period ended December 31, 2013, the net annualized advisory fee was 0.04%, 0.15%, (0.15%), 0.60% and 0.00% for the SPDR SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return ETF, SPDR SSgA Income Allocation ETF, SPDR SSgA Global Allocation ETF, SPDR Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan ETF and SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF, respectively. For the SPDR SSgA Global Allocation ETF the reduction resulted in a fee reimbursement which is identified on the Statements of Operations.

The Adviser pays all operating expenses of each Fund other than management fee, distribution fee pursuant to each Fund’s Distribution and Service Plan, if any, brokerage, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of the Independent Trustees (including any Trustees’ counsel fees), litigation expenses, and other extraordinary expenses.

State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), an affiliate of the Adviser, receives fees for its services as Custodian, Administrator and Transfer Agent from the Adviser.

State Street Global Markets, LLC (the “Distributor”), an affiliate of the Adviser, serves as the distributor of the shares of each Fund. Pursuant to a Distribution and Service Plan adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, each Fund is authorized to pay an amount of up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets for certain distribution-related activities. However, the Board of Trustees has determined that no such payments will be made through at least October 31, 2014 and therefore no such payments have been made.

The Distributor has established an assisted trading program to aid Authorized Participants in certain creation and redemption activity for which the Distributor receives commissions from Authorized Participants. In addition, the Distributor receives compensation from State Street associated with on-line creation and redemption activity of Authorized Participants.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

December 31, 2013 (Unaudited)

Trustees’ Fees

The Trust, SSgA Master Trust, SPDR Series Trust and SPDR Index Shares Funds pay, in the aggregate, each Independent Trustee an annual fee of $170,000 plus $10,000 per in-person meeting attended and $1,250 for each telephonic or video conference meeting attended. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional annual fee of $50,000 and the Chairman of the Audit Committee receives an additional annual fee of $20,000. The Trust also reimburses each Independent Trustee for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by him/her in connection with attending such meetings and in connection with attending industry seminars and meetings. Trustee fees are allocated among the Trusts and each of their respective series in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the relative net assets of the series.

4. Shareholder Transactions

Shares are issued and redeemed by a Fund only in Creation Unit size aggregations of 50,000 shares. Such transactions are generally permitted on an in-kind basis, with a separate cash payment, which is a balancing cash component to equate the transaction to the net asset value per unit of the Fund on the transaction date. Transaction fees ranging from of $100 to $400 per Creation Unit for each Fund, regardless of the number of Creation Units that are created or redeemed on the same day, are charged to those persons creating or redeeming Creation Units. An additional variable fee may be charged for certain transactions. Transaction fees are received by the Trust and/or Custodian and are used to defray related expenses. The Custodian also receives amounts earned on cash collateral provided by Authorized Participants pending delivery of missing deposit securities. The amounts are included in Other Capital on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.

OTHER INFORMATION

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include creation and redemption fees or brokerage charges and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, trustee fees, and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on July 1, 2013 and held for the six months ended December 31, 2013.

Actual Expenses

The first table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses attributable to your investment during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Fund’s actual return. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The Funds charge transaction fees at scheduled amounts ranging from $100 to $400 per Creation Unit to those persons creating or redeeming Creation Units. If you buy or sell the Funds’ shares in the secondary market, you will incur customary brokerage commissions and charges.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as creation and redemption fees, or brokerage charges. Therefore, the second table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Actual	Annualized Expense Ratio			Beginning Account Value 7/1/13		Ending Account Value 12/31/13		Expenses Paid During Period* 7/1/13 to 12/31/13

SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF**		0.20			1,000		1,010.92		0.46

* Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized net expense ratio multiplied by the average account value of the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six month period, then divided by 365.

** Actual period is from commencement of operations 10/9/13. Hypothetical period is from 7/1/13.

Quarterly Portfolio Schedule

The Funds file a complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Fund’s Forms N-Q are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and may be reviewed and copied at the SEC’s Public Reference Room in Washington DC. Information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330. The information on the Form N-Q is available upon request, without charge, by calling 1-866-787-2257 (toll free) and on the Funds’ website at www.spdrs.com.

Approval of Advisory Agreement

At in-person meetings held prior to December 31, 2013, the Board of Trustees of the Trusts (the “Board”) evaluated various proposals related to advisory arrangements for new series of the Trusts, including a proposal to approve the Investment Advisory Agreements (the “Agreement”) with respect to the SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF, a new series of the Active Trust (the “New ETF” and together with the Current ETFs, the “SPDR ETFs”), and its underlying master fund, the SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond Portfolio, both of which commenced operations during the most recent fiscal half-year period covered by this Semi-Annual Report. The Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”) also met separately with their independent legal counsel to consider the Agreement.

In evaluating the Agreement, the Board drew on materials provided to them by the Adviser and on other materials provided by State Street Bank and Trust Company, the Trust’s Administrator, Transfer Agent and Custodian (“State Street”). In deciding whether to approve the Agreement, the Board considered various factors, including (i) the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by the Adviser with respect to the New ETF under the Agreement, (ii) costs to the Adviser of its services, and (iii) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if and as the New ETF grows and whether the fee in the Agreement reflects these economies of scale.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by the Adviser. In doing so, they relied on their prior experience with the Trust and materials provided prior to and at the meeting. The Board reviewed the Agreement and the Adviser’s anticipated responsibilities for managing investment operations of the New ETF, in accordance with the New ETF’s investment objective and policies, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The Board appreciated the relatively unique nature of the New ETF, as an exchange-traded fund in a master-feeder structure, and the experience and expertise of the Adviser with exchange-traded funds. The Board considered the background and experience of the Adviser’s senior management, including those individuals responsible for portfolio management and compliance of, the New ETF. The Board also considered the portfolio management resources, structures and practices of the Adviser, including those associated with monitoring and securing the New ETF’s compliance with its investment objectives and policies and with applicable laws and regulations. The Board also considered information about the Adviser’s best execution procedures and overall investment management business, noting that the Adviser serves a wide range of clients across a broad spectrum of asset classes. The Board looked at the Adviser’s general knowledge of the investment business and that of its affiliates which make up State Street Global Advisors, with which the Adviser shares all of its senior personnel. The Board considered that the Adviser and its affiliates constitute one of the world’s largest investment management enterprises for ETFs. The Board also considered the Adviser’s experience in active management, in managing exchange-traded funds in master-feeder structures.

The Board considered whether the Adviser benefited in other ways from its relationship with the Trust, noting that the Adviser does not maintain soft-dollar arrangements in connection with the Trust’s brokerage transactions.

SSgA ACTIVE ETF TRUST

OTHER INFORMATION (continued)

December 31, 2013 (Unaudited)

The Board reviewed information regarding economies of scale or other efficiencies that may result as the New ETF’s assets grow in size. The Board noted that the Agreement did not provide for breakpoints in the Fund’s advisory fee rates as assets of the Fund increase. However, the Board further noted the Adviser’s assertion that future economies of scale had been taken into consideration for the New ETF by fixing relatively low advisory fees, effectively sharing the benefits of lower fees with the New Fund from inception. The Board noted that it intends to continue to monitor fees as the New ETF grows in size and assess whether fee breakpoints may be warranted.

The Board evaluated the New ETF’s unitary fee through review of comparative information with respect to fees paid by similar funds — i.e., exchange-traded funds that are actively managed, as applicable. The Board reviewed the universe of similar exchange-traded funds for the New ETF based upon data from Lipper Analytical Services and related comparative information for similar ETFs. The Board also reviewed the estimated expense ratio for the New ETF, noting the differences in fees between the feeder and corresponding master funds in connection with the master-feeder structure.

The Board, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Agreement for the New ETF after weighing the foregoing factors, none of which was dispositive in itself and may have been weighed differently by each Trustee. The Board’s conclusions with respect to the Agreement were as follows: (a) the nature and extent of the services expected to be provided by the Adviser with respect to the New ETF were appropriate; (b) the Adviser’s fee for the New ETF and the unitary fee, considered in relation to services expected to be provided, were fair and reasonable; (c) any additional benefits to the Adviser were not of a magnitude materially to affect the Board’s conclusions; and (d) fees expected to be paid to the Adviser were expected to share economies of scale with respect to the SPDR ETF by way of the relatively low fee structure of the Trust.

SSgA MASTER TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2013 (Unaudited)

1. Organization

SSgA Master Trust (the “Trust”), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), is an open-end investment management company that was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on March 30, 2011.

As of December 31, 2013, the Trust offered five (5) portfolios, each of which represents a separate series of beneficial interest in the Trust (each referred to as a “Portfolio”, collectively as the “Portfolios”). The financial statements herein relate to the following five (5) Portfolios: SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return Portfolio, SSgA Income Allocation Portfolio, SSgA Global Allocation Portfolio, Blackstone/GSO Senior Loan Portfolio and SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond Portfolio. Each Portfolio serves as a master fund in a master feeder structure.

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.

The Trust invests in various investments which are exposed to risks, such as market risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could be material.

SSgA Multi-Asset Real Return Portfolio, SSgA Income Allocation Portfolio and SSgA Global Allocation Portfolio invest their assets in other exchange-traded products (referred to as “underlying Funds”). The underlying Funds, in turn, may engage in a number of investment techniques and practices, which involve certain risks. Certain underlying Funds invest their portfolios in debt securities. Investments in debt securities may increase or decrease as a result of the following: market fluctuations, increases in interest rates, inability of issuers to repay principal and interest or illiquidity in the debt securities markets; the risk of low rates of return due to reinvestment of securities during periods of falling interest rates or repayment by issuers with higher coupon or interest rates; and/or the risk of low income due to falling interest rates. Certain underlying Funds invest their portfolios in foreign securities including emerging markets. Foreign investments involve certain risks that are greater than those associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. Returns on investments in foreign securities could be more volatile than, or trail the returns on, investments in U.S. securities. Investments in securities issued by entities based outside the United States pose distinct risks since political and economic events unique to a country or region will affect those markets and their issuers. Investment in emerging markets involves greater risk of loss than investments in a developed market. This is due to, among other things, greater market volatility, lower trading volume, political and economic instability, high levels of inflation, deflation or currency devaluation, greater risk of market shut down, and more governmental limitations on foreign investment policy than those typically found in a developed market. Certain underlying Funds invest their portfolios in commodities markets. Commodities are subject to substantial price fluctuations over short periods of time and may be affected by unpredictable economic, political and environmental events. Factors that may significantly affect the prices of commodities include, but are not limited to: global supply and demand; domestic and international interest rates and investors’ expectations of interest rates; inflation rates and investors’ expectations of inflation rates; the investment and trading activities of commodity futures contracts; political, economic, or financial events, both globally and regionally.

The Blackstone / GSO Senior Loan Portfolio invests its assets in senior loans. Investments in senior loans are subject to credit risks which may include delay in receiving payments of principal and interest paid by the borrower to the agent or by the agent to the lender or offsets against payments received from the borrower.

SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond Portfolio invests primarily in investment grade debt securities with varying maturities. Investments in debt securities may increase or decrease as a result of the following: market fluctuations, increases in interest rates, inability of issuers to repay principal and interest or illiquidity in the debt securities markets; the risk of low rates of return due to reinvestment of securities during periods of falling interest rates or repayment by issuers with higher coupon or interest rates; and/or the risk of low income due to falling interest rates.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements:

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These financial statements are presented in United States dollars.

Security Valuation

The value of each Portfolio’s portfolio securities and other financial instruments is based on the market price of the securities, which generally means a valuation obtained from an exchange or other market (or based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange or other market) or a valuation obtained from an independent pricing service. Investments in underlying funds are valued at their market price each business day. Loans are primarily valued by using a composite loan price from a loan pricing service. The methodology used by the Portfolios’ loan pricing provider for composite loan prices is to value loans at the mean of the bid and ask prices from one or more brokers or dealers. U.S. fixed income securities may be valued as of the announced closing time for trading in fixed income instruments on any day that the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association announces an early closing time. If a security’s market price is not readily available or does not otherwise accurately reflect the fair value of the security, the security will be valued by another method that the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) believes will better reflect fair value in accordance with the Trust’s valuation policies and procedures. The Board has delegated the process of valuing securities for which market quotations are not readily available or do not otherwise accurately reflect the fair value of the security to the Pricing and Investment Committee (the “Committee”). The Committee, subject to oversight by the Board, may use fair value pricing in a variety of circumstances, including but not limited to, situations when trading in a security has been suspended or halted. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determination for a security is materially different than the value that could be received on the sale of the security.

The Portfolios follow the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements and the fair value option for financial assets and financial liabilities. The guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

• Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

• Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

• Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolios’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The valuation of senior floating rate loans held by the Funds are obtained from an independent loan pricing service and categorized as Level 2 based on the use of other significant observable inputs. Investments that use Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to: (i) an unlisted security related to corporate actions; (ii) a restricted security (e.g., one that may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended); (iii) a security whose trading has been suspended or which has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; (iv) a security that is thinly traded; (v) a security in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation; (vi) a security affected by currency controls or restrictions; and (vii) a security affected by a significant event (e.g., an event that occurs after the close of the markets on which the security is traded but before the time as of which the Portfolios’ net assets are computed and that may materially affect the value of the Portfolios’ investments). Examples of events that may be “significant events” are government actions, natural disasters, armed conflicts, acts of terrorism, and significant market fluctuations.

Fair value pricing could result in a difference between the prices used to calculate a Portfolio’s net asset value and the prices used by the Portfolio’s benchmark index, which, in turn, could result in a difference between the Portfolio’s

performance and the performance of the Portfolio’s benchmark index. The inputs or methodology used for valuation are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments.

The type of inputs used to value each security is identified in the Schedule of Investments, which also includes a breakdown of the Portfolio’s investments by category.

The following table summarizes the inputs used in valuing the Portfolios’ investments as of December 31, 2013:

* Less Unfunded Loan Commitments

There were no transfers between levels for the period ended December 31, 2013.

Investment Income

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. The value of additional securities received as dividend payments is recorded as income and as an increase to the cost basis of such securities.

Expenses

Advisory fees and other expenses, which are directly identifiable to a specific Portfolio, are applied to that Portfolio. Trustees’ fees and other expenses which cannot be attributed to a specific Portfolio are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of the Portfolios. In addition to the these direct expenses, the Portfolios bear certain expenses indirectly, such as fees of underlying Portfolios in which the Portfolio invest that are reflected in the reported value of such Portfolios.

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Realized gains and losses from the sale or disposition of securities are recorded on the identified cost basis. Corporate actions (including cash dividends) are recorded net of foreign tax withholdings on the ex-dividend date.

Federal Income Tax

The Portfolios are not required to pay federal income taxes on their net investment income and net capital gains because they are treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. All interest, gains and losses of the Portfolios are deemed to have been “passed through” to the Portfolios’ partners in proportion to their holdings in the respective Portfolio, regardless of whether such items have been distributed by the Portfolios. Each partner is responsible for tax liability based on its distributive share; therefore, no provision has been made for federal income taxes. The Portfolios have reviewed the tax positions for the open tax years as of June 30, 2013 and have determined that no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolios’ Financial Statements. The Portfolios’ federal tax returns are subject to examination by the Portfolios’ major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Portfolios’ recognized interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations.

7. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Fund has adopted the disclosure provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update 2011-11 (“ASU 2011-11”), Balance Sheet (Topic 210) — Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities along with the related scope clarification provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Update 2013-01 (“ASU

2013-01”) entitled Balance Sheet (Topic 210) — Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU 2011-11 is intended to enhance disclosures on the offsetting of financial assets and liabilities by requiring entities to disclose both gross and net information about financial instruments and transactions that are either offset in the statement of assets and liabilities or subject to a master netting agreement or similar arrangement. ASU 2013-01 limits the scope of ASU 2011-11’s disclosure requirements on offsetting to financial assets and financial liabilities related to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities lending and securities borrowing transactions. Management has determined that there is no material impact to the financial statements.

Approval of Advisory Agreements

At in-person meetings held prior to December 31, 2013, the Board of Trustees of the Trusts (the “Board”) evaluated various proposals related to advisory arrangements for certain new series of the Trusts, including a proposal to approve separate Investment Advisory Agreements (together, the “Agreements”) between SSgA Funds Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”) and (1) the SSgA Active ETF Trust with respect to the SPDR SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond ETF (the “New ETF”) and (2) SSgA Master Trust with respect to the New ETF’s corresponding master fund, the SSgA Ultra Short Term Bond Portfolio (together with the New ETF, the “New Funds”), both of which commenced operations during the most recent fiscal half-year period covered by this Semi-Annual Report. The Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”) also met separately with their independent legal counsel to consider the Agreements.

In evaluating the Agreements, the Board drew on materials provided to them by the Adviser and on other materials provided by State Street Bank and Trust Company, the Trust’s Administrator, Transfer Agent and Custodian (“State Street”). In deciding whether to approve the Agreements, the Board considered various factors, including (i) the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by the Adviser with respect to the New Funds under the Agreements, (ii) costs to the Adviser of its services, and (iii) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if and as the New Funds grow and whether the fees in the Agreements reflect these economies of scale.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by the Adviser. In doing so, they relied on their prior experience with the Trust and materials provided prior to and at the meeting. The Board reviewed the Agreements and the Adviser’s anticipated responsibilities for managing investment operations of the New Funds in accordance with each New Fund’s investment objective, investment policies, and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The Board appreciated the relatively unique nature of the New ETF as an exchange-traded fund in a master-feeder structure, and the experience and expertise of the Adviser with exchange-traded funds. The Board considered the background and experience of the Adviser’s senior management, including those individuals responsible for portfolio management and compliance of, the New Funds. The Board also considered the portfolio management resources, structures and practices of the Adviser, including those associated with monitoring and securing each New Fund’s compliance with its investment objectives and policies and with applicable laws and regulations. The Board also considered information about the Adviser’s best execution procedures and overall investment management business, noting that the Adviser serves a wide range of clients across a broad spectrum of asset classes. The Board looked at the Adviser’s general knowledge of the investment business and that of its affiliates which make up State Street Global Advisors, with which the Adviser shares all of its senior personnel. The Board considered that the Adviser and its affiliates constitute one of the world’s largest investment management enterprises for ETFs. The Board also considered the Adviser’s experience in active management and in managing exchange-traded funds in master-feeder structures.

The Board considered whether the Adviser or its affiliates benefited in other ways from its relationship with the Trust, noting that the Adviser does not maintain soft-dollar arrangements in connection with the Trust’s brokerage transactions.

OTHER INFORMATION (continued)

December 31, 2013 (Unaudited)

The Board reviewed information regarding economies of scale or other efficiencies that may result as each New Fund’s assets grow in size. The Board noted that the Agreements did not provide for breakpoints in each New Fund’s advisory fee rates as assets of a Fund increase. However, the Board further noted the Adviser’s assertion that future economies of scale had been taken into consideration for the New Funds by fixing relatively low advisory fees, effectively sharing the benefits of lower fees with the New Funds from inception. The Board noted that it intends to continue to monitor fees as the New Funds grow in size and assess whether fee breakpoints may be warranted.

The Board evaluated the New Funds’ unitary fees through review of comparative information with respect to fees paid by similar funds – i.e., exchange-traded funds that are actively managed, as applicable. The Board reviewed the universe of similar exchange-traded funds for the New ETF based upon data from Lipper Analytical Services and related comparative information for similar ETFs. The Board also reviewed the fee structure of the New Funds in connection with the master-feeder structure.

The Board, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, approved the Agreements for each New Fund after weighing the foregoing factors, none of which was dispositive in itself and may have been weighed differently by each Trustee. The Board’s conclusions with respect to each Agreement were as follows: (a) the nature and extent of the services expected to be provided by the Adviser with respect to the New Funds were appropriate; (b) the Adviser’s fee for the New Funds and the unitary fee, considered in relation to services expected to be provided, were fair and reasonable; (c) any additional benefits to the Adviser or its affiliates were not of a magnitude materially to affect the Board’s conclusions; and (d) fees expected to be paid to the Adviser were expected to share economies of scale with respect to the New Funds by way of the relatively low fee structure of the Trust.

ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the ETFs net asset value. Brokerage commissions and ETF expenses will reduce returns.

Because the SPDR SSgA Active Asset Allocation ETFs are actively managed, they are therefore subject to the risk that the investments selected by SSgA may cause the ETFs to underperform relative to their benchmarks or other funds with similar investment objectives. Actively managed ETFs do not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index.

Foreign investments involve greater risks than U.S. investments, including political and economic risks and the risk of currency fluctuations, all of which may be magnified in emerging markets.

Bond funds contain interest rate risk (as interest rates rise bond prices usually fall); the risk of issuer default; issuer credit risk; liquidity risk; and inflation risk.

Commodities investing entail significant risk as commodity prices can be extremely volatile due to wide range of factors.

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Index performance does not reflect charges and expenses associated with the fund or brokerage commissions associated with buying and selling a fund. Index performance is not meant to represent that of any particular fund.
