1 The adviser and distributor are contractually obligated to waive a portion of their advisory fees and distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees, as applicable, and to reimburse certain expenses of the Portfolio to the extent necessary to assist the Portfolio in maintaining a yield of not less than zero through May 1, 2011. There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will maintain such a yield. Any advisory fees waived or expenses reimbursed may be subject to possible recoupment by the adviser within three years. In no event will the amount of the recoupment on any day exceed 20% of the yield (net of all expenses) of the Portfolio on that day. Distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees waived are not eligible for recoupment. There is no guarantee this obligation will continue after May 1, 2011. The obligation will only renew if the adviser and distributor elect to renew it.
Expense Example $

The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in shares of the Portfolio with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example does not reflect expenses and charges which are, or may be, imposed under your Variable Contract or Qualified Plan. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolio for the time periods indicated. The Example also assumes that your investment had a 5% return each year and that the Portfolio’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

1 Yr 3 Yrs 5 Yrs 10 Yrs

The Example reflects applicable expense limitation agreements and/or waivers in effect, if any, for the one-year period and the first year of the three-, five-, and ten-year periods.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES

The Portfolio operates as a diversified fund and invests in a portfolio of high-quality, U.S. dollar denominated short-term debt securities that are determined by the Sub-Adviser to present minimal credit risk. The Portfolio may maintain a rating from one or more rating agencies that provide ratings on money market funds. There can be no assurance that the Portfolio will maintain any particular rating or maintain it with a particular rating agency. To maintain a rating, the Sub-Adviser may manage the Portfolio more conservatively than if it was not rated.

Portfolio investments of the Portfolio are valued based on the amortized cost valuation method pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“Rule 2a-7”). Obligations in which the Portfolio invests generally have remaining maturities of 397 days or less, although upon satisfying certain conditions of Rule 2a-7, the Portfolio may, to the extent otherwise permissible, invest in instruments subject to repurchase agreements and certain variable and floating rate obligations that bear longer final

1 of 4

maturities. The dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of the Portfolio will not exceed 60 days and the dollar-weighted average life to maturity of the Portfolio will not exceed 120 days.

The Portfolio will invest in obligations permitted to be purchased under Rule 2a-7 including, but not limited to: (i) U.S. government securities and obligations of its agencies or instrumentalities; (ii) commercial paper, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, repurchase agreements, guaranteed investment contracts, municipal securities, loan participation interests, and medium-term notes; (iii) other money market mutual funds; and (iv) the following domestic, Eurodollar and Yankee Dollar obligations: certificates of deposit, time deposits, bankers acceptances, and other promissory notes, including floating and variable rate obligations issued by U.S. or foreign bank holding companies, and their bank subsidiaries, branches and agencies. The Portfolio may invest more than 25% of its assets in instruments issued by domestic banks. The Portfolio may significantly invest in securities issued by financial services companies including, among other entities, banks and bank holding companies, investment banks, trust companies, insurance companies, finance companies, and broker-dealers.

The Portfolio may purchase securities on a when-issued basis and purchase or sell them on a forward commitment basis. The Portfolio may also invest in variable rate master demand obligations, which are unsecured demand notes that permit the underlying indebtedness to vary, and provide for periodic adjustments in the interest rate.

In choosing investments for the Portfolio, the Sub-Adviser employs a highly disciplined, four-step investment process designed to ensure preservation of capital and liquidity, as well as adherence to regulatory requirements. The four steps are: first, a formal list of high-quality issuers is actively maintained; second, securities of issuers on the approved list that meet maturity guidelines and are rated first tier (i.e., they are given the highest short-term rating by at least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, or by a single rating organization if a security is rated only by that organization, or are determined to be of comparable quality by the Sub-Adviser pursuant to guidelines approved by the Portfolio’s Board of Trustees), are selected for investment; third, diversification is continuously monitored to ensure that regulatory limits are not exceeded; and finally, portfolio maturity decisions are made based upon expected cash flows, income opportunities available in the market and expectations of future interest rates.

The Portfolio may invest in other investment companies to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations and exemptive orders thereunder (“1940 Act”).

PRINCIPAL RISKS

You could lose money on an investment in the Portfolio. Any of the following risks, among others, could affect Portfolio performance or cause the Portfolio to lose money or to underperform market averages of other funds.

Although the Portfolio sees to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.

Concentration   As a result of the Portfolio concentrating its assets in securities related to a particular industry/sector, the Portfolio may be subject to greater market fluctuations than a fund that has securities representing a broader range of investment alternatives. If securities of the particular industry/sector as a group fall out of favor, the Portfolio could underperform funds that have greater industry diversification.

Credit   Prices of bonds and other debt securities can fall if the issuer’s actual or perceived financial health deteriorates, whether because of broad economic or issuer-specific reasons. In severe cases, the issuer could be late in paying interest or principal, or could fail to pay altogether.

Currency   To the extent that the Portfolio invests directly in foreign currencies or in securities denominated in or that trade in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, it is subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged.

Focused Investing  To the extent that the Portfolio invests a substantial amount of its assets in issuers located in a particular geographical area, security type, or segment of a market, its performance will be sensitive to developments in that geographical area, security type or market segment. If the Portfolio focuses its investments in this manner, it assumes the risk that economic, political and social conditions affecting its investments will have a significant impact on its investment performance. The Portfolio could underperform, or be more volatile than, a fund that invests more broadly, and could underperform funds that invest in better-performing areas, security types or market segments.

Foreign Investments  Investing in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may result in the Portfolio experiencing more rapid and extreme changes in value than a fund that invests exclusively in securities of U.S. companies due to smaller markets, differing reporting, accounting and auditing standards, and nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, foreign currency fluctuations, currency blockage, or political changes or diplomatic developments.

Interest Rate  With bonds and other debt securities, a rise in interest rates generally causes values to fall. Falling interest rates will cause the income of bonds and other debt securities to decline over time. The higher the credit quality of the security, and the longer its maturity or duration, the more sensitive it is likely to be to interest rate risk.

Liquidity   If a security is illiquid, the Portfolio might be unable to sell the security at a time when the Portfolio’s sub-adviser might wish to sell, and the security could have the effect of decreasing the overall level of the Portfolio’s liquidity. Further, the lack of an established secondary market may make it more difficult to value illiquid securities, which could vary from the amount the Portfolio could realize upon disposition. The Portfolio may make investments that become less liquid in response to


Summary Prospectus April 30, 2010 2 of 4 ING Money Market Portfolio

market developments or adverse investor perception. The Portfolio could lose money if it cannot sell a security at the time and price that would be most beneficial to the Portfolio.

Mortgage-Related Securities  Default on the underlying assets of the mortgage-related securities held by the Portfolio may impair the value of the securities and there may be limitations on the enforceability of any security interest granted with respect to those assets. These securities also present a higher degree of prepayment and extension risk and interest rate risk than do other types of fixed income securities.

Municipal Obligations  The municipal market in which the Portfolio invests is volatile and can be significantly affected by adverse tax, legislative, or political changes and the financial condition of the issuers of municipal securities.

Other Investment Companies  The main risk of investing in other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds, is the risk that the value of the securities underlying an investment company might decrease. Because the Portfolio may invest in other investment companies, you will pay a proportionate share of the expenses of that other investment company (including management fees, administration fees and custodial fees) in addition to the expenses of the Portfolio.

Prepayment and Extension  Prepayment risk is the risk that principal on mortgages or other loan obligations underlying a security may be repaid prior to the stated maturity date, which may reduce the market value of the security and the anticipated yield-to-maturity. Extension risk is the risk than an issuer will exercise its right to repay principal on an obligation held by the Portfolio later than expected, which may decrease the value of the obligation and prevent the Portfolio from investing expected repayment proceeds in securities paying yields higher than the yields paid by the securities that were expected to be repaid.

U.S. Goverment Securities and Obligations  U.S. government securities are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the U.S. government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises. U.S. government securities are subject to market and interest rate risk, and may be subject to varying degrees of credit risk.

When Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities and Forward Commitments  When issued securities, delayed delivery securities and forward commitments involve the risk that the security the Portfolio buys will lose value prior to its delivery. There also is the risk that the security will not be issued or that the other party will not meet its obligation. If this occurs, the Portfolio loses both the investment opportunity for the assets it set aside to pay for the security and any gain in the security’s price.

An investment in the Portfolio is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

The following information is intended to help you understand the risks of investing in the Portfolio. The following bar chart shows the changes in the Portfolio’s Class I shares’ performance from year to year, and the table compares the Portfolio’s Class I shares’ performance to the performance of a broad-based securities market index/indices for the same period. The Portfolio’s performance information reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the period presented. Absent such fee waivers/expense limitations in effect, if any, performance would have been lower. Performance in the Average Annual Total Returns table does not include insurance-related charges imposed under a Variable Contract or expenses related to a Qualified Plan. If these charges or expenses were included, performance would be lower. Thus, you should not compare the Portfolio’s performance directly with the performance information of other investment products without taking into account all insurance-related charges and expenses payable under your Variable Contract or Qualified Plan. The Portfolio’s past performance is no guarantee of future results.

TAX INFORMATION

Distributions made by the Portfolio to a Variable Contract or Qualified Plan, and exchanges and redemptions of Portfolio shares made by a Variable Contract or Qualified Plan, ordinarily do not cause the corresponding contract holder or plan participant to recognize income or gain for federal income tax purposes. See the accompanying contract prospectus or the governing documents of your Qualified Plan for information regarding the federal income tax treatment of the distributions to your Variable Contract or Qualified Plan and the holders of the contracts or plan participants.

PAYMENTS TO BROKER-DEALERS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES

If you invest in the Portfolio through a Variable Contract issued by an insurance company or through a Qualified Plan that, in turn, was purchased or serviced through an insurance company, broker-dealer or other financial intermediary, the Portfolio and its adviser or distributor or their affiliates may: (1) make payments to the insurance company issuer of the Variable Contract or to the company servicing the Qualified Plan; and (2) make payments to the insurance company, broker-dealer or other financial intermediary. These payments may create a conflict of interest by: (1) influencing the insurance company or the company servicing the Qualified Plan to make the Portfolio available as an investment option for the Variable Contract or the Qualified Plan; or (2) by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Variable Contract or the pension servicing agent and/or the Portfolio over other options. Ask your salesperson or Qualified Plan administrator or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.
