Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 0.85%, 1.60%, 0.58% and 0.60% of the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Class R6 and Class Y shares, respectively, through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in

INCORE Total Return Bond Fund Summary

place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 310	$ 555	$ 820	$ 1,575
Class C	$ 263	$ 934	$ 1,725	$ 3,798
Class R6	$59	$192	$337	$759
Class Y	$61	$201	$353	$795

The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class C	$163	$934	$1,725	$3,798

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 79% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objectives by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in a broad range of bonds.

The Adviser uses bond market sector allocation, yield curve positioning, and comprehensive credit analysis to select securities for the Fund. When making investment decisions for corporate bonds, in addition to considering traditional financial and non-financial factors, the Adviser also considers material Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) related risks and opportunities, both positive and negative, that it believes have the potential to impact a company’s financial performance over an investment’s time horizon. In evaluating ESG factors, the Adviser seeks to quantify how ESG factors affect a corporate bond issuer’s credit quality, but ESG is not a primary factor in the team’s investment decision-making process. ESG factors can vary across companies and industries and may include, but are not limited to, environmental impact, corporate governance, ethical business practices, compliance with regulatory requirements, as well as the use of human, natural, and physical capital.

Under normal market conditions, the average duration of the Fund’s portfolio is expected to be between 3 and 7 years. Bonds, also known as fixed income securities, in which the Fund may invest include without limitation: U.S. government securities, including securities issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government; long- and short-term corporate debt obligations; mortgage-backed securities, including collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS); asset-backed securities, including collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) and collateralized loan obligations (CLOs); convertible bonds and notes; and U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of foreign governments, corporations and banks (i.e., Yankee Bonds).

2

INCORE Total Return Bond Fund Summary

The bonds in which the Fund will invest will generally be rated investment-grade or better (Baa3 and above by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or BBB- and above by Standard & Poor’s), or if unrated, have been determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in below-investment-grade debt securities, commonly known as “high yield” securities or “junk bonds.”

The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, to-be-announced (TBA), delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short-term trading of portfolio securities. There is no limitation on the maturity of any specific security the Fund may purchase, and the Fund may sell any security before it matures.

The Fund may enter into exchange-traded or over-the-counter derivatives transactions of any kind, such as futures contracts (both long and short positions) and options on futures and swap contracts, including, for example, interest rate swaps and credit default swaps. The Fund also may enter into exchange-traded or over-the-counter foreign currency exchange transactions, including currency futures, forward, and options transactions. The Fund may enter into any of these transactions for a variety of purposes, including, but not limited to, hedging various risks such as credit risk, interest rate risk, currency risk, and liquidity risk; taking a net long or short position in certain investments or markets; providing liquidity in the Fund; equitizing cash; minimizing transaction costs; generating income; adjusting the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate risk, currency risk, or other risk; replicating certain direct investments; and asset and sector allocation. Some of these strategies may be considered speculative and involve additional risks.

The Fund may invest in investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (ETFs), for cash management purposes or to seek exposure to a particular asset class.

Although the Fund will primarily be invested in domestic securities, up to 20% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, which may be denominated in foreign currencies.

The Adviser regularly reviews the Fund’s investments and may sell investments when it believes they are no longer attractive due to valuation, changes in the fundamental outlook of the company or other investments are considered more attractive.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Debt Securities Risk — The value of a debt security or other income-producing security changes in response to various factors, including, for example, market-related factors (such as changes in interest rates or changes in the risk appetite of investors generally) and changes in the actual or perceived ability of the issuer (or of issuers generally) to meet its (or their) obligations. Other factors that may affect the value of debt securities, include, among others, public health crises and responses by governments and companies to such crises. These and other events may affect the creditworthiness of the issuer of a debt security and may impair an issuer's ability to timely meet its debt obligations as they come due.

High-Yield/Junk Bond Risk — Lower-quality debt securities can involve a substantially greater risk of default than higher quality debt securities, and their values can decline significantly over short and longer periods of time. Lower-quality debt securities tend to be more sensitive to adverse news about the issuer, or the market or economy in general.

Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk — During periods of falling interest rates, mortgage- and asset-backed securities may be called or prepaid, which may result in the Fund having to reinvest proceeds in other investments at a lower interest rate. During periods of rising interest rates, the average life of mortgage- and asset-backed securities may extend, which may lock in a below-market

3

INCORE Total Return Bond Fund Summary

interest rate, increase the security's duration, and reduce the value of the security. Enforcing rights against the underlying assets or collateral may be difficult, or the underlying assets or collateral may be insufficient if the issuer defaults.

When-Issued, TBA and Delayed Delivery Risk — The market value of a security issued on a when-issued, to-be-announced or delayed-delivery basis may change before the delivery date, which may adversely impact the Fund’s net asset value. There is also the risk that a party fails to deliver the security on time or at all.

Derivatives Risk — Derivative instruments and strategies, including futures and selling securities short, may not perfectly replicate direct investment in the security. Derivatives also entail exposure to counterparty credit risk, the risk of mispricing or improper valuation, and the risk that small price movements can result in substantial gains or losses.

Credit Derivatives Risk – Credit default swaps can create investment leverage and may create additional investment risks that may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in more traditional securities.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Investment Company Risk — An investment company or similar vehicle (including an ETF) in which the Fund invests may not achieve its investment objective. Underlying investment vehicles are subject to investment advisory and other expenses, which will be indirectly paid by the Fund. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.

Portfolio Turnover Risk — Higher portfolio turnover ratios resulting from additional purchases and sales of portfolio securities will generally result in higher transaction costs and Fund expenses and can lead to distribution of additional short-term capital gains to investors, which are taxed as ordinary income.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

INCORE Total Return Bond Fund Summary

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com. Performance of Class A, C and Y shares reflects the performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C and Y shares of the Munder Bond Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund that was managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Bond Fund.

The inception date of Class R6 is March 4, 2015.

After-tax returns use the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the effect of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant if you own your Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. After-tax returns are shown for only one share class. The after-tax returns for other classes will vary.

Management of the Fund

Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. The portfolio managers jointly and primarily responsible for day-to-day management of the Fund are members of the Adviser’s INCORE Capital Management (“INCORE”) investment franchise.

Portfolio Managers 

	Title	Tenure with the Fund
Edward D. Goard, CFA	Chief Investment Officer	Since 2009
Richard A. Consul, CFA	Senior Portfolio Manager	Since 2012
James R. Kelts, CFA	Senior Portfolio Manager	Since 2012

INCORE Total Return Bond Fund Summary

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares 

Investment Minimums	Class A	Class C	Class R6	Class Y
Minimum Initial Investment	$2,500	$2,500	None	$1,000,000
Minimum Subsequent Investments	$50	$50	None	None

For Class A  and Class C shares a $1,000 minimum initial purchase amount and a $50 minimum subsequent purchase amount apply for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), gift/transfer to minor accounts, and purchases through automatic investment plans.

You may redeem your shares on any day the Fund is open for business. Redemption requests may be made by telephone (with prior appropriate approval) or by mail.

When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value (“NAV”) after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services for investments in all classes except Class R6. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Additional Fund Information  

Victory Capital Management Inc., which we refer to as the “Adviser”

throughout the Prospectus, manages the Fund.

The Victory INCORE Total Return Bond Fund (the “Fund”) is managed by the Adviser, who also manages other funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Together, these funds are referred to in this Prospectus as the “Victory Funds” or, more simply, the “Funds.”

The following section describes additional information about the principal investment strategy the Fund will use under normal market conditions to pursue its investment objective, as well as any secondary strategies the Fund may use, and the related risks. This Prospectus does not attempt to describe all of the various investment techniques and types of investments that the Adviser may use in managing the Fund. The Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) includes more information about the Fund, its investments, and the related risks. Keep in mind that for temporary or emergency cash management purposes, the Fund may hold all or a portion of its assets in cash, short-term money market instruments or shares of other investment companies. This may reduce the benefit from any upswing in the market, cause the Fund to fail to meet its investment objective and increase the Fund's expenses.

When selecting corporate bonds for investment, in addition to considering traditional financial and non-financial factors, the Adviser also considers material Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) related risks and opportunities, both positive and negative, that it believes have the potential to affect a company’s financial performance over an investment’s time horizon. The team’s goal is to quantify the impact of ESG factors on a corporate bond issuer’s credit quality. These factors can vary across companies and industries and may include, but are not limited to, environmental impact, corporate governance, ethical business practices, compliance with regulatory requirements, as well as the use of human, natural, and physical capital.

ESG considerations are not the primary factor in the investment decision-making process, nor is their consideration designed as exclusionary, but rather an important component of the team’s broad analysis and assessment of credit quality and risk. Thus, no single factor, ESG-related or otherwise, necessarily disqualifies a company from investment, and no individual characteristic must be present prior to investment. The Adviser utilizes third-party data, and develops insights from publicly available information to identify and quantify material ESG exposures. The methodology rewards ESG leaders and those with improving profiles with an incrementally higher credit quality score, while laggards or those with deteriorating ESG profiles are penalized with incrementally lower credit quality scores. The Adviser may choose to invest during periods of controversy, assuming the risks and turnaround potential are appropriately analyzed and compensated for at the time of investment. The Adviser believes that the integration of ESG considerations is complementary to the investment process and assists in the broader investment objectives of delivering reasonable income while preserving capital.

The Fund’s investment objective and policy to invest under normal market conditions at least 80% of its assets in bonds is non-fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval upon at least 60 days’ written notice to shareholders. For purposes of the Fund’s 80% investment policy, “assets” means the Fund’s net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes. Any derivatives counted towards the Fund’s 80% investment policy will be valued at market value.

Investments

The following describes the types of securities the Fund may purchase under normal market conditions to achieve its principal investment strategy. The Fund will not necessarily buy all of the securities listed below.

Asset-Backed Securities

Debt securities backed by loans or accounts receivable originated by banks, credit card companies, student loan issuers, or other providers of credit. These securities may be enhanced by a bank letter of credit or by insurance coverage provided by a third party.

Corporate Debt Obligations

Debt instruments issued by corporations. They may be secured or unsecured.

Convertible or Exchangeable Obligations

Debt instruments that may be exchanged or converted to other securities.

International Bonds

Debt instruments issued by non-domestic issuers, including those traded in U.S. dollars such as Yankee Bonds and Eurodollar Bonds.

Mortgage-Backed Securities

Mortgage-backed securities, including collateralized mortgage obligations and certain stripped mortgage-backed securities, represent a participation in, or are secured by, mortgage loans.

When-Issued, To-Be-Announced (“TBA”) and Delayed-Delivery Securities

Securities that are purchased or sold for delivery at a later time. In a TBA transaction, a seller generally agrees to deliver a mortgage-backed security meeting certain criteria at a future date.

Zero Coupon Bonds

Debt instruments that are purchased at a discount from face value. The bond’s face value is received at maturity, with no interest payments before then.

Derivatives

Derivative instruments are financial contracts whose value is based on an underlying security or asset, a currency exchange rate, an interest rate or a market index. Many types of instruments representing a wide range of potential risks and rewards are derivatives, including credit default swap contracts, swaps, futures contracts (both short and long positions), options on futures contracts, options, and forward currency exchange contracts. The Fund may use derivatives for hedging (attempting to reduce risk by offsetting one investment position with another), for cash management (attempting to remain fully invested while maintaining liquidity), for managing certain risks (such as yield curve exposure, interest rate risk or credit risk), to generate income, to gain exposure to an investment in a manner other than investing in the asset directly or for any other permissible purpose. Hedging may relate to a specific investment, a group of investments, or the Fund’s portfolio as a whole. Currently, some swaps may be negotiated bilaterally and others may be subject to mandatory clearing and exchange trading requirements. These requirements may decrease counterparty exposure and increase liquidity, but will not make swap transactions risk free.

9

Investments

Investment Companies

The Fund may invest in securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, if those companies invest in securities consistent with the Fund's investment objective and policies. ETFs are investment companies the shares of which are bought and sold on a securities exchange.

Additional Fund Strategies. The Adviser may use other types of investment strategies in pursuing the Fund's overall investment objective. The following describes the types of securities that the Adviser may purchase or investment techniques the Adviser may employ that are not considered to be a part of the Fund's principal investment strategies. Additional securities and techniques are described in the Fund's SAI.

U.S. Government Securities1

Notes and bonds issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities. Some are direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury; others are obligations only of the U.S. agency or instrumentality. There is no guarantee that the U.S. government will provide support to U.S. agencies or instrumentalities if they are unable to meet their obligations.

U.S. Government Instrumentalities1

Securities issued by U.S. government instrumentalities such as: the Student Loan Marketing Association (“SLMA” or Sallie Mae), The Federal Farm Credit Bank (“FFCB”), and Federal Home Loan Banks. Certain instrumentalities are “wholly-owned Government corporations,” such as the Tennessee Valley Authority (“TVA”).

Mortgage Dollar Rolls

Repurchase transactions in which the Fund may agree to sell a mortgage-backed security for settlement on one date and buy back the same security for settlement on a later date at a lower price.

Securities Lending

To enhance the return on its portfolio, the Fund may lend portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and financial institutions to realize additional income under guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees. Each loan will be secured continuously by collateral in the form of cash, securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities.

1

Obligations of entities such as the GNMA are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury. Others, such as the FNMA, SLMA, FHLB, FHLMC, FMAC and TVA are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury. FFCB is supported only by the credit of the federal instrumentality. See the SAI for more information about investments in obligations of U.S. government instrumentalities and wholly-owned government corporations.

10

Risk Factors

The following provides additional information about the Fund's principal risks and supplements those risks discussed in the Fund's Fund Summary section of this Prospectus. 

By matching your investment objective with an acceptable level of risk,

you can create your own customized investment plan.

Active Trading Risk — To the extent the Fund buys and sells securities actively, it could have higher expenses (which reduces returns to shareholders) and higher taxable distributions. While it is not an investment strategy to actively trade the Fund’s portfolio, the Adviser may from time to time do so, generating portfolio turnover rates in excess of 100%.

Below-Investment-Grade Securities Risk — Below-investment-grade securities (high-yield or “junk” bonds) are subject to certain risks in addition to those risks associated with higher-rated securities. Below-investment-grade securities generally offer higher yields than investment-grade securities with similar maturities because the financial condition of the issuers may not be as strong as issuers of investment-grade securities. For this reason, below-investment-grade securities may be considered speculative, which means that there is a higher risk that the Fund may lose a substantial portion or all of its investment in a particular below-investment-grade security. Below-investment-grade securities may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic conditions, which may cause them to be downgraded or default, less liquid, and more difficult to evaluate than investment-grade securities.

Debt Securities Risks — The value of a debt security or other income-producing security changes in response to various factors, including, for example, market-related factors (such as changes in interest rates, adverse economic or political conditions, tariffs and trade disruptions, inflation, or adverse investor sentiment generally) and changes in the actual or perceived ability of the issuer (or of issuers generally) to meet its (or their) obligations. Changes in value may occur sharply and unpredictably. Other factors that may affect the value of a debt security include public health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and responses by governments and companies to such crises. The COVID-19 pandemic is having, and any future outbreaks could have, an adverse impact on the issuers of debt securities in which the Fund may invest and the global economy in general, which impact could be material.

This pandemic, which has spread rapidly across the world, has led and will continue to lead for an unknown period of time to disruptions in local, regional, national and global markets and economies. The outbreak has resulted in, and until fully resolved is likely to continue to result in, among other things: (1) government imposition of various forms of “stay at home” orders and the closing of “non-essential” businesses, resulting in significant disruption to the businesses of many issuers as well as lay-offs of employees; (2) increased requests by issuers of debt instruments for amendments and waivers of agreements to avoid default and increased defaults; (3) volatility and disruption of markets, including greater volatility in pricing and spreads; and (4) rapidly evolving proposals and/or actions by state and federal governments to address problems being experienced by the markets and by businesses and the economy in general. For example, actions by the U.S. Federal Reserve (also known as the “Fed”) have included direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs, and dramatically lower interest rates. High public debt in the United States and other countries creates ongoing systemic and market risks and policymaking uncertainty. The COVID-19 pandemic and other market events also may affect the creditworthiness of the issuer of a debt security and may impair an issuer’s ability to timely meet its debt obligations as they come due.

◼

Interest Rate Risk — The value of a security will decline if interest rates rise. When interest rates go up, the value of a debt security typically goes down. When interest rates go down, the value of a debt security typically goes up. Duration is a measure of the price sensitivity of a debt security or portfolio to interest rate changes. The longer the Fund’s average portfolio duration, the more sensitive the Fund will be to changes in interest rates. In addition, during periods of increased market volatility, the market values of fixed income securities may be

11

Risk Factors

more sensitive to changes in interest rates. Interest rates may rise or the rate of inflation may increase, impacting the value of investments in fixed income securities. A debt issuer’s credit quality may be downgraded or an issuer may default. Interest rates may fluctuate due to changes in governmental fiscal policy initiatives and resulting market reaction to those initiatives. Decisions by the Fed regarding interest rate and monetary policy can have a significant effect on the value of debt securities as well as the overall strength of the U.S. economy. Precise interest rate predictions are difficult to make, and interest rates may change unexpectedly and dramatically in response to extreme changes in market or economic conditions. Interest rates have been unusually low in recent years in the U.S. and abroad, and central banks have reduced rates further in an effort to combat the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Extremely low or negative interest rates may become more prevalent or may not work as intended. As there is little precedent for this situation, the impact on various markets that interest rate or other significant policy changes may have is unknown.

◼

Inflation Risk — Inflation will erode the purchasing power of the cash flows generated by debt securities held by the Fund. Fixed-rate debt securities are more susceptible to this risk than floating-rate debt securities or equity securities that have a record of dividend growth.

◼

Reinvestment Risk — When interest rates are declining, the interest income and prepayments on a security the Fund receives will have to be reinvested at lower interest rates. Generally, interest rate risk and reinvestment risk tend to have offsetting effects, though not necessarily of the same magnitude.

◼

Credit (or Default) Risk — The issuer of a debt security may be unable to make timely payments of interest or principal. Credit risk is measured by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (“NRSROs”) such as Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”), Fitch, Inc., and Moody’s Investor Service (“Moody’s”).

◼

Liquidity Risk — A lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the Fund’s ability to sell a security at an advantageous time or price. Adverse market or economic conditions, including rising interest rates, may adversely affect the liquidity of the Fund’s investments and may lead to increased redemptions. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in a security that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that security, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. The capacity of dealers to make markets in fixed income securities may not keep pace with the growth in the size of the fixed income markets. Liquidity risk may be magnified in a rising interest rate environment or when investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, due to the increased supply in the market that would result from selling activity.

◼

Redemption Risk — The Fund may experience periods of heavy shareholder redemptions that could cause the Fund to sell assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value. Redemption risk is heightened during periods of declining or illiquid markets. Heavy redemptions could hurt the Fund’s performance.

Derivatives Risk — The use of derivative instruments, such as futures contracts and credit default swaps, exposes the Fund to additional risks and transaction costs. Risks of derivative instruments include: (1) the risk that interest rates, securities prices, asset values, and currency markets will not move in the direction that a portfolio manager anticipates; (2) imperfect correlation between the price of derivative instruments and movements in the prices of the securities, assets, interest rates or currencies being hedged; (3) the fact that skills needed to use these strategies are different than those needed to select portfolio securities; (4) the possible absence of a liquid secondary market for any particular instrument and possible exchange imposed price fluctuation limits, either of which may make it difficult or impossible to close out a position when desired; (5) the risk that adverse price

12

Risk Factors

movements in an instrument can result in a loss substantially greater than the Fund’s initial investment in that instrument (in some cases, the potential loss is unlimited); (6) particularly in the case of privately-negotiated instruments, the risk that the counterparty will not perform its obligations, which could leave the Fund worse off than if it had not entered into the position; and (7) the inability to close out certain hedged positions to avoid adverse tax consequences.

Foreign Securities Risk

◼

Foreign Investments Risk — Foreign investments involve certain special risks. For example, compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies. Foreign issuers may not be subject to the uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices prevalent in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments. Investments in depositary receipts (such as ADRs and GDRs) may also involve additional risks associated with the non-uniform terms that apply to depositary receipt programs, credit exposure to the depository bank and to the sponsors and other parties with whom the depository bank establishes the programs, currency risk and the risk of an illiquid market for depositary receipts. Certain of these risks may also apply to some extent to U.S. investments that are denominated in foreign currencies and to investments in U.S. companies that have significant foreign operations.

◼

Political Risk — Foreign securities markets may be more volatile than their counterparts in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Foreign settlement procedures may also involve additional risks, and foreign issuers can be impacted by changes to trade policies and trade disputes. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments.

◼

Legal Risk — Legal remedies for investors in foreign countries may be more limited than the legal remedies available in the U.S.

Geopolitical/Natural Disaster Risk — Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. Epidemics and/or pandemics, such COVID-19, may result in, among other things, closing borders, disruptions to healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, cancellations, disruptions to supply chains and consumer activity, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact may last for extended periods.

Information Technology and Operational Risk — Markets and market participants are increasingly reliant upon both publicly available and proprietary information data systems. Data imprecision, software or other technology malfunctions, programming inaccuracies, unauthorized use or access, and similar circumstances may impair the performance of these systems and may have an adverse impact upon a single issuer, a group of issuers, or the market at large. The information technology and other operational systems upon which the Fund’s service providers rely may be subject to cyber attack or other technological disruptions, and could otherwise disrupt the ability of these service providers to perform essential tasks for the Fund. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue

13

Risk Factors

trading halts on either specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in the Fund being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or accurately price its investments.

Investment Company Risk — The Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective may be directly related to the ability of other investment companies (including ETFs) held by the Fund to meet their investment objectives. In addition, shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the underlying investment companies. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.

Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risks —

◼

Prepayment Risk – During periods of falling interest rates, mortgage and asset-backed securities, which typically provide the issuer with the right to call or prepay the security prior to maturity, may be called or prepaid, which may result in the Fund having to reinvest the proceeds in other investments at a lower interest rate. As a result, mortgage and asset-backed securities may have less potential for capital appreciation during periods of declining interest rates than other securities of comparable maturities, although they may have a similar risk of decline in market values during periods of rising interest rates. Prepayment rates are difficult to predict and the potential impact of prepayments on the value of a mortgage- or asset-backed security depends on the terms of the instrument and can result in significant volatility. Interest rate levels and other factors may affect the frequency of mortgage prepayments, which in turn can affect the average life of a pool of mortgage-related securities. In periods of rising interest rates, the prepayment rate tends to decrease, lengthening the average life of a pool of mortgage-related securities. In periods of falling interest rates, the prepayment rate tends to increase, shortening the average life of a pool of mortgage-related securities.

◼

Extension Risk – The rate of anticipated prepayments of principal may not occur, typically because of a rise in interest rates, and the expected maturity of the security will increase. During periods of rapidly rising interest rates, the effective average maturity of a security may be extended past what the Fund’s portfolio manager anticipated that it would be. The market value of securities with longer maturities tends to be more volatile.

◼

Underlying Collateral Risk – The price of a mortgage- or asset-backed security also depends on the credit quality and adequacy of the underlying assets or collateral. Enforcing rights against the underlying assets or collateral may be difficult, or the underlying assets or collateral may be insufficient if the issuer defaults. Subprime mortgage loans, which typically are made to less creditworthy borrowers, have a higher risk of default than conventional mortgage loans. Some mortgage-backed securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government while other mortgage-backed securities are backed only by the credit of the government them. Other mortgage-backed securities are issued by private entities and are not guaranteed by the U.S. government or any agency or instrumentality of the U.S. government.

When-Issued, TBA and Delayed-Delivery Securities Risk — The market value of the security issued on a when-issued, TBA or delayed-delivery basis may change before the delivery date, which may adversely impact the Fund’s NAV. There is also the risk that a party fails to deliver the security on time or at all.

Additional Risk Factors. The Adviser may use several types of investment strategies in pursuing the Fund's overall investment objective. The following risks are those that the Adviser does not consider to be principal risks of the Fund. Additional risks are included in the Fund's SAI.

Mortgage Dollar Roll Risk — A dollar roll involves potential risks of loss that are different from those related to the securities underlying the transactions. The use of dollar rolls can increase the volatility of the Fund’s share price, and it may adversely impact on performance unless the Adviser correctly predicts mortgage prepayments and interest rates. Since the counterparty in the transaction is

14

Risk Factors

required to deliver a similar, but not identical, security to the Fund, the security that the Fund is required to buy under the dollar roll may be worth less than an identical security. There is no assurance that the Fund’s use of cash that it receives from a dollar roll will provide a return that exceeds borrowing costs. In addition, investment in mortgage dollar rolls may significantly increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate, which can increase the Fund’s expenses and decrease returns.

Securities Lending Risk — The risk in lending portfolio securities, as with other extensions of credit, consists of the possibility of loss to the Fund due to (1) the inability of the borrower to return the securities, (2) a delay in receiving additional collateral to adequately cover any fluctuations in the value of securities on loan, (3) a delay in recovery of the securities, or (4) the loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. These events could trigger adverse tax consequences for the Fund. In addition, the Fund is responsible for any loss that might result from its investment of the borrower’s collateral. In determining whether to lend securities, the Adviser or the Fund’s securities lending agent will consider relevant facts and circumstances, including the creditworthiness of the borrower.

Investing with the Victory Funds  

All you need to do to get started is to fill out an application.

If you are looking for a convenient way to open an account or to add money to an existing account, we can help. The sections that follow will serve as a guide to your investment with the Victory Funds. These sections describe many of the share classes currently offered by the Victory Funds. The section Choosing a Share Class will help you decide which share class it may be to your advantage to buy.

Keep in mind that Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. In addition, not all Victory Funds offer each class of shares described below, and therefore, certain classes may be discussed that are not necessarily offered by the Fund. The classes of shares that are offered by the Fund are those listed on the cover page designated with a ticker symbol. The Fund may also offer other share classes in different prospectuses.

This section of the Prospectus also describes how to open an account, how to access information about your account, and how to buy, exchange, and sell shares of a Victory Fund. Note, this information may vary if you invest through a third party such as a brokerage firm and will be dependent on that firm's policies and practices. Consult your Investment Professional for specific details.

We want to make it simple for you to do business with us. If you have questions about any of this information, please call your Investment Professional or one of our customer service representatives at 800-539-FUND. They will be happy to assist you.  

An Investment Professional is an investment consultant, salesperson, financial planner,

17

Share Price  

The daily NAV is useful to you as a shareholder because the NAV,

multiplied by the number of Fund shares you own, gives you the value of your investment.

The Fund calculates its share price, called its net asset value (“NAV”), each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”), which is normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event of an emergency or other disruption in trading on the NYSE, the Fund’s share price will be determined based upon the close of the NYSE. You may buy, exchange, and sell your shares on any business day at a price that is based on the NAV that is next calculated after you place your order. A business day is a day on which the NYSE is open.

To the extent the Fund’s investments include securities that are primarily traded in foreign markets, the value of those securities may change on days when shareholders are unable to purchase and redeem the Fund’s shares, such as on weekends or other days when the Fund does not price its shares.

A Fund that invests primarily in fixed income securities reserves the right to close if the primary trading markets of the Fund’s portfolio instruments are closed and the Fund’s management believes that there is not an adequate market to meet purchase, redemption or exchange requests. In addition, if the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) recommends that government securities dealers close before the close of regular trading on the NYSE (the “Alternative Closing Time”), the Fund reserves the right to refuse any purchase or redemption order received after the Alternative Closing Time. If the Fund closes at the Alternative Closing Time, its NAV will be calculated as of the Alternative Closing Time. You may not be able to buy or sell shares on Columbus Day and Veterans Day, or on holidays when the Federal Reserve system is closed, but the NYSE and other financial markets are open.

The Fund prices its investments based on market value when market quotations are readily available. When these quotations are not readily available, the Fund will price its investments at fair value according to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Fund will fair value a security when:

◼

Trading in the security has been halted;

◼

The market quotation for the security is clearly erroneous due to a clerical error;

◼

The security’s liquidity decreases such that, in the Adviser's opinion, the market quotation has become stale; or

◼

An event occurs after the close of the trading market (but before the Fund’s NAV is calculated) that, in the Adviser’s opinion, materially affects the value of the security.

The use of fair value pricing may minimize arbitrage opportunities that attempt to exploit the differences between a security's market quotation and its fair value. The use of fair value pricing may not, however, always reflect a security’s actual market value in light of subsequent relevant information, and the security’s opening price on the next trading day may be different from the fair value price assigned to the security.

Each Victory Fund calculates the NAV of each share class by adding up the total value of the investments and other assets of that class, subtracting its liabilities, and then dividing that figure by the number of outstanding shares of the class.  

NAV=	Total Assets - Liabilities
	Number of Shares Outstanding

You may be able to find the Fund's NAV each day in The Wall Street Journal and other newspapers. Newspapers do not normally publish fund information until the fund reaches a specific number of shareholders or level of assets. You may also find the Fund's NAV by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting the Fund's website at VictoryFunds.com.

Share Classes

When you purchase shares of the Fund, you must choose a share class. The Victory Funds offer Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares. Each share class represents an interest in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes differ in the sales charges, if any, and expenses that

19

Choosing a Share Class

apply to your investment, allowing you and your Investment Professional to choose the class that best suits your investment needs. Not all Victory Funds offer all classes of shares, and some classes of shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. The Victory Funds may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

Deciding which share class best suits your investment needs depends on a number of factors that you should discuss with your Investment Professional, including: how long you expect to hold your investment, how much you intend to invest, and the total expenses associated with each share class.

The Fund reserves the right to change the eligibility criteria for purchasing a particular share class. For example, a class of shares may be available to purchase only by retirement plans or by institutional investors. The Fund may also waive any applicable eligibility criteria or investment minimums at its discretion.

The Fund or any class may be closed at any time for failure to achieve an economical level of assets or for other reasons. Certain financial intermediaries who hold shares on behalf of their customers impose fees when the amount of shares of a particular class falls below a minimum threshold. To the extent that the amount of shares falls below that threshold, the Fund reserves the right to liquidate the shares held in accounts maintained by the financial intermediary.

Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares  

For historical expense information, see the “Financial Highlights”

at the end of this Prospectus.

Class A shares are sold at their public offering price, which is the NAV plus any applicable initial sales charge, also referred to as the “front-end sales load.” The sales charge may be reduced or eliminated for larger purchases, as detailed below or as described under Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares. The investment levels required to obtain a reduced sales charge are commonly referred to as “breakpoints.”

All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through an intermediary specified in Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

In order to obtain a breakpoint discount, you must inform the Victory Funds or your Investment Professional at the time you purchase shares of the existence of the other Victory accounts or purchases of Victory Funds that are eligible to be linked for the purpose of calculating the initial sales charge. The Fund or your Investment Professional may ask you for records or other information about other Victory Funds held in your Victory accounts and any linked accounts, such as accounts opened with a different financial intermediary.

The current sales charge rates and breakpoint levels for Class A shares of the Fund are listed below:  

Your Investment in the Fund	Sales Charge as a % of Offering Price	Sales Charge as a % of Your Investment
Up to $99,999	2.25%	2.30%
$100,000 up to $249,999	1.75%	1.78%

20

Choosing a Share Class

Your Investment in the Fund	Sales Charge as a % of Offering Price	Sales Charge as a % of Your Investment
$250,000 and above*	0.00%	0.00%

* A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions. You may be eligible for a reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. See CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares and Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries for details.

Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares  

There are several ways you can combine multiple purchases of Class A shares of the Victory

Funds to take advantage of reduced sales charges and, in some cases, eliminate sales charges.

There are a number of ways you can reduce your sales charges, which we describe below. In order to obtain a Class A sales charge reduction or waiver, you must provide your financial intermediary or the Fund's transfer agent, at the time of purchase, with current information regarding shares of any Victory Funds held in other accounts. This information must include account statements or other records (including written representations from the intermediary holding the shares) that indicate that a sales charge was paid for shares of the Victory Funds held in: any accounts (e.g., retirement accounts) established (i) with the Victory Funds and your investment professional; (ii) with other financial intermediaries; and (iii) in the name of immediate family household members (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21).

The availability of a sales charge reduction or waiver discussed below will depend upon whether you purchase your shares directly from the Fund or through a financial intermediary. If you are eligible for a sales charge reduction because you own shares of other Victory Funds, you must notify the Fund or your financial intermediary at the time of purchase of any relationship or other facts qualifying you for sales charge reductions or waivers. Some intermediaries impose different policies for sales charge waivers and reductions. These variations are described in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. Except as described with respect to the intermediaries specified in Appendix A, all Class A shares are subject to the terms stated below. In order to obtain waivers and discounts that are not available through your intermediary, you must purchase Fund shares directly from the Fund or through another intermediary.

You can find additional information regarding sales charges and their reductions, free of charge, at vcm.com/policies, by clicking on Victory Portfolios' Mutual Funds Pricing Policies.

You may reduce or eliminate the sales charge applicable to Class A shares in a number of ways:

◼

Breakpoint - Purchase a sufficient amount to reach a breakpoint (see Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares above);

◼

Letter of Intent - If you anticipate purchasing $50,000 or more of Class A shares of the Fund, including any purchase of other Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), within a 13-month period, you may qualify for a sales charge breakpoint as though the total quantity were invested in one lump sum. In order to qualify for the reduced sales charge, you must submit a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “Letter”) within 90 days of the start of the purchases. Each investment you make after signing the Letter will be entitled to the sales charge applicable to the total investment indicated in the Letter. You must start with a minimum initial investment of at least 5.00% of the total amount you intend to purchase. A portion of the shares purchased under the Letter will be held in escrow until the total investment has been completed. In the event you do not complete your commitment set forth in

21

Choosing a Share Class

the Letter in the time period specified, sufficient escrowed shares will be redeemed to pay any applicable front-end sales charges;

◼

Right of Accumulation - You may add the value of any other Victory Funds of any share class that you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), to the amount of your next Class A investment to determine if your additional investment will qualify for a sales charge breakpoint. The value of the other Victory Funds of any share class you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) will be calculated by using the greater of the current value or the original investment amount. You may be eligible for reduced sales charges on future purchases of Class A shares of the Fund after you have reached a new breakpoint. To determine your reduced sales charge, you can add the value of your Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), (or those held by your spouse (including domestic partner) and your children under age 21), determined at the previous day’s NAV, to the amount of your new purchase, valued at the current offering price. To ensure that the reduced price will be received pursuant to the Fund’s Right of Accumulation, you or your Investment Professional must inform the Fund’s transfer agent that the Right applies each time shares are purchased and provide the transfer agent with sufficient information to permit confirmation of qualification;

◼

Combination Privilege - You may combine the value in accounts of multiple Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) and in accounts of household members of your immediate family (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21) to achieve a reduced sales charge on your added investment;

◼

Reinstatement Privilege - You may reinvest at NAV all or part of your redemption proceeds within 90 days of a redemption of Class A shares of the Fund;

◼

Waiver - The Victory Funds will completely waive the sales charge for Class A shares in the following cases:

◼

Purchases by certain individuals associated with the Victory Funds or service providers (see “Eligibility of Individuals Associated with the Victory Funds and Fund Service Providers”);

Purchases by registered broker-dealers, financial intermediaries or their agents or affiliates who have agreements with the Fund's distributor (“Distributor”), if the shares are purchased for their own account, purchased for retirement plans of their employees or sold to registered representatives or full-time employees (or their immediate families), provided that such purchase is for one of the foregoing types of accounts;

You should inform the Fund or your Investment Professional at the time of purchase of the sales charge waiver category which you believe applies.

CDSC for Class A Shares

A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through the intermediaries specified in Appendix A.

CDSC for Class C Shares

You will pay a 1.00% CDSC on any Class C shares you sell within 12 months of purchase. The CDSC is based on the current value of the shares being sold or their NAV when purchased, whichever is less. There is no CDSC on shares you acquire by reinvesting your dividends or capital gains distributions. You may be eligible for reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. There is no CDSC imposed when you exchange your shares for Class C shares of another Victory Fund; however, your exchange is subject to the same CDSC schedule that applied to your original purchase.

An investor may, within 90 days of a redemption of Class C shares, reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds in the Class C shares of any Victory Fund at the NAV next computed after receipt by the transfer agent of the reinvestment order. Class C share proceeds reinvested do not result in a refund of any CDSC paid by the shareholder, but the reinvested shares will be treated as CDSC exempt upon reinvestment. The shareholder must ask the Distributor for such privilege at the time of reinvestment.

To keep your CDSC as low as possible, each time you sell shares we will first sell shares in your account that are not subject to a CDSC. If there are not enough of these to meet your sale, we will sell the shares in the order they were purchased.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares

◼

To the extent that the shares redeemed:

◼

are no longer subject to the holding period for such shares;

resulted from reinvestment of distributions; or

◼

were exchanged for shares of another Victory Fund as allowed by the Prospectus, provided that the shares acquired in such exchange or subsequent exchanges will continue to remain

23

subject to the CDSC, if applicable, calculated from the original date of purchase until the applicable holding period expires. In determining whether the CDSC applies to each redemption, shares not subject to a CDSC are redeemed first;

a registered shareholder on an account; or

◼

a settlor of a living trust, of shares held in the account at the time of death or initial determination of post-purchase disability;

Information About Fees

Distribution and Service Plans

In accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Trust has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class A, Class C and Class R shares of the Fund.

Under the Class A Distribution and Service Plan, the Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets of its Class A shares. Under the Class R Distribution and Service Plan, the Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.50% of its average daily net assets of its Class R shares. The fee is paid for general distribution services and for providing personal services to shareholders. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of Fund shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Under the Class C Distribution and Service Plan, the Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of its Class C shares. Of this amount, 0.75% of the Fund’s Class C shares average daily net assets will be paid for general distribution services and for selling Class C shares. The Fund will pay 0.25% of its Class C shares average daily net assets to compensate financial institutions that provide personal services to Class C shareholders of the Fund. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of the Fund’s Class C shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Because Rule 12b-1 fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets and on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

Other Payments to Financial Intermediaries

Except with respect to Class R6 shares, if you purchase Fund shares through an Investment Professional, a broker dealer, or other financial intermediary, the Fund may pay for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and/or similar administrative services. In addition, the Adviser (and its affiliates) may make substantial payments out of its own resources, including the profits from the advisory fees the Adviser receives from the Fund, to affiliated and unaffiliated dealers or other Investment Professionals and service providers for distribution, administrative and/or shareholder servicing activities. The Adviser also may reimburse the Distributor (or the Distributor's affiliates) for making these payments. Some of these distribution-related payments may be made to dealers or other Investment Professionals for marketing, promotional or related expenses; these payments are often referred to as “revenue sharing.” The Adviser (and its affiliates) also may pay fixed fees for the listing of a Fund on a broker-dealer’s or financial intermediary’s system. Such payments are not considered to be revenue sharing payments.

In some circumstances, these types of payments may create an incentive for a dealer or Investment Professional or its representatives to recommend or offer shares of the Victory Funds to its customers. You should ask your dealer or Investment Professional for more details about any such payments it receives.

26

Information About Fees

No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries from Fund assets, or from the resources of the Adviser or its affiliates on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares.

How to Buy Shares

Opening an Account

If you would like to open an account, you will first need to complete an Account Application.

You can obtain an Account Application by calling Victory Funds Customer Service at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863).

You can also obtain an Account Application by contacting your Investment Professional. When you invest through an Investment Professional, the procedures for buying, selling, and exchanging shares and the account features and policies may differ. In addition to any limitations described in this Prospectus, an Investment Professional or other intermediary may also place other limits on your ability to use the services of the Fund. Sometimes an Investment Professional will charge you for its services. This fee will be in addition to, and unrelated to, the fees and expenses charged by the Fund.

Mutual funds must obtain and verify information that identifies investors opening new accounts. If the Fund is unable to collect the required information, you may not be able to open your account. Additional details about the Fund's Customer Identification Program are available in the section “Important Fund Policies.”

If you participate in a retirement plan that offers one of the Victory Funds as an option, please consult your employer for information on how to purchase shares of the Victory Funds through the plan, including any restrictions or limitations that may apply.

Paying for Your Initial Purchase

If you wish to make an investment directly into the Victory Funds, make your check payable to the “Victory Funds.” All checks must be drawn on U.S. banks. If your check is returned as uncollectible for any reason, you will be charged for any resulting fees and/or losses. The Fund does not accept cash, money orders, traveler’s checks, credit card convenience checks, or third party checks. Additionally, bank starter checks are not accepted for the shareholder’s initial investment into the Fund. All payments must be denominated in U.S. dollars.

Minimum Investments

If you would like to buy Class A or Class C shares, the minimum investment required to open an account is $2,500 ($1,000 for IRA accounts), with additional investments of at least $50. If you would like to buy Class I, Class R, Class R6 or Class Y shares, you must be an Eligible Investor, as discussed in the section Choosing a Share Class — Eligibility Requirements to Purchase. Eligible Investors may be subject to a minimum investment amount as detailed in that section.

For Class C shares, individual purchases of $250,000 and above will automatically be made in Class A shares.

If your account falls below the minimum investment amount, we may ask you to reestablish the minimum investment. If you do not do so within 60 days, we may close your account and send you the value of your account.

The minimum investment required to open an account may be waived or lowered for employees and immediate family members of the employees, of the Adviser, the Administrator, and their affiliates. In addition, the minimum investment required may be waived when the Fund is purchased through an Advisory Program, within qualified retirement plans or in other similar circumstances. Although the

28

How to Buy Shares

Fund may sometimes waive the minimum investment, when it does so, it always reserves the right to reject initial investments under the minimum at its discretion.

There is no minimum investment required to open an account or for additional investments in Victory Simple IRAs.

How to Exchange Shares  

There may be limits on the ability to exchange between certain Victory Funds. You can

obtain a list of Victory Funds available for exchange by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting

VictoryFunds.com

The shares of any class of the Fund may be exchanged for the shares of any other class offered by the Fund or the same class, or any other class of any Victory Fund, either through your Investment Professional or directly through the Fund, subject to the conditions described below:

◼

Exchanges are subject to any CDSC, minimum investment limitation or eligibility requirements described in the applicable Prospectus and SAI. You may be required to provide sufficient information to establish eligibility to exchange into a new share class.

◼

To exchange with a Victory Fund, the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into must be eligible for exchange with your Fund.

◼

Shares of the Victory Fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in your state of residence.

If you have questions about these, or any of the Fund's other exchange policies, please consult Victory Customer Service or your Investment Professional before requesting an exchange.

Before exchanging, you should read the Prospectus of the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into, which may be subject to different risks, fees and expenses.

Class C Share Conversion

Class C shares of the Fund will automatically convert to Class A shares in the month following the eight-year anniversary date of the purchase of the Class C shares. Your financial intermediary may have a conversion schedule that is shorter than eight years. Class C conversions will be effected at the relative NAV of each such class without the imposition of any sales charge, fee or other charge.

You may be able to voluntarily convert your Class C shares before the stated anniversary to a different share class of the same Fund that has a lower total annual operating expense ratio provided certain conditions are met. This voluntary conversion feature is intended for shares held through a financial intermediary offering a fee-based or wrap fee program that has an agreement with the Adviser or the Distributor specific for this purpose. Generally, Class C shares are not eligible for conversion until the applicable CDSC period has expired. Please contact your financial intermediary for additional information.

Processing Your Voluntary Exchange/Conversion

If your exchange or conversion request is received and accepted by the Fund, an Investment Professional or other intermediary by the close of trading as described in the section entitled, “Share Price,” then your request will be processed the same day. If received after the close of trading, your request will be processed on the next business day. Please contact your financial intermediary regarding the tax consequences of any exchange or conversion.

Exchanges will occur at the respective NAVs of the Fund's share classes involved in the exchange next calculated after receipt and acceptance of your exchange request in good order, plus any applicable sales charge described in the Prospectus. Share class conversions will be based on the respective NAV of each class as of the trade date of the conversion. Consequently, you may receive fewer shares or more shares than originally owned, depending on that day’s NAVs.

Requesting an Exchange

You can exchange shares of the Fund by telephone, by mail or via the Internet. You cannot exchange into an account with a different registration or tax identification number.

◼

By Telephone

31

How to Exchange Shares

Unless you indicate otherwise on the account application, Victory Customer Service will be authorized to accept exchange instructions received by telephone.

◼

By Mail

Send a letter of instruction signed by all registered owners or their legal representatives to the Victory Funds.

◼

Via the Internet

You may also exchange shares via the Internet at VictoryFunds.com if you are a registered user.

Other Exchange Rules You Should Know

The Fund may refuse any exchange purchase request if the Adviser determines that the request is associated with a market timing strategy. The Fund may terminate or modify the exchange privilege at any time upon 60 days’ notice to shareholders.

An exchange of Fund shares for shares of another Victory Fund constitutes a sale for tax purposes unless the exchange is made within an IRA or other tax-deferred account.

For information on how to exchange shares of the Fund that were purchased through your employer’s retirement plan, including any restrictions and charges that the plan may impose, please consult your employer.

32

How to Sell Shares  

There are a number of convenient ways to sell your shares. You can use the same mailing

addresses listed for purchases.

If your redemption request is received in good order by the close of trading on the NYSE, your redemption will be processed the same day. Your redemption will not be processed until the next business day if it is received after the close of trading on the NYSE. You cannot redeem your shares at www.VictoryFunds.com.

 

BY TELEPHONE

The easiest way to redeem shares is by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863). When you fill out your original application, be sure to check the box marked “Telephone Authorization.” Then when you are ready to sell, call and tell us which one of the following options you would like to use:

◼

Mail a check to the address of record;

◼

Wire funds to a previously designated domestic financial institution;

◼

Mail a check to a previously designated alternate address; or

◼

Electronically transfer your redemption via ACH to a previously designated domestic financial institution.

The transfer agent records all telephone calls for your protection and takes measures to verify the identity of the caller. If the transfer agent properly acts on telephone instructions and follows reasonable procedures to ensure against unauthorized transactions, none of the Trust, its servicing agents, the Adviser, or the transfer agent will be responsible for any losses. If the transfer agent does not follow these procedures, it may be liable to you for losses resulting from unauthorized instructions.

If there is an unusual amount of market activity and you cannot reach the transfer agent or your Investment Professional by telephone, consider placing your order by mail.

 

BY MAIL

Use the regular U.S. mail or overnight mail address to redeem shares. Send us a letter of instruction indicating your Fund account number, amount of redemption, and where to send the proceeds. A Medallion signature guarantee is required for the following redemption requests:

◼

Your account registration has changed within the last 15 business days;

◼

The check is not being mailed to the address on your account;

◼

The check is not being made payable to the owner of the account;

◼

The redemption proceeds are being transferred to another Victory Fund account with a different registration; or

◼

The check or wire is being sent to a different bank account than was previously designated.

You can get a Medallion signature guarantee from a financial institution — such as a commercial bank, broker dealer, credit union, clearing agency, or savings bank — that is a member of a Medallion signature guarantee program.  

BY WIRE

If you want to receive your proceeds by wire, you must establish a Fund account that will accommodate wire transactions. If you call before the close of trading on the NYSE, your funds will be wired on the next business day.  

BY ACH

Normally, your redemption will be processed on the same day, but will be processed on the next day if received after the close of trading on the NYSE. It will be transferred by ACH as long as the transfer is to a domestic bank.

33

How to Sell Shares

Systematic Withdrawal Plan

If you check this box on the Account Application or on the Account Maintenance Form, we will send monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payments to the person you designate. The minimum withdrawal is $25, and you must have a balance of $5,000 or more at the time you establish the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If the payment is to be sent to an account of yours, we will need a voided check to activate this feature. If the payment is to be made to an address different from your account address, we will need a Medallion signature guaranteed letter of instruction. You should be aware that each withdrawal may be a taxable transaction. Also, each withdrawal reduces your account balance, and eventually your account balance may be depleted. However, you cannot automatically close your account using the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If your balance falls below the initial purchase minimum, we may ask you to bring the account back to the minimum balance. If you decide not to increase your account to the minimum balance, your account may be closed and the proceeds mailed to you.

Additional Information About Redemptions

◼

Redemption proceeds from the sale of Fund shares purchased by a check or through ACH will be held until the purchase check or ACH has cleared, which will take up to 10 business days.

◼

We typically expect to send the proceeds from your share redemption within one business day after we execute your order, but we may take up to seven business days to send redemption proceeds, regardless of payment type. When you sell shares through your financial intermediary, you can ask the intermediary to tell you when you can expect to receive the proceeds of your redemption.

◼

The Fund may suspend your right to redeem your shares in the following circumstances:

◼

During non-routine closings of the NYSE;

◼

When the SEC determines either that trading on the NYSE is restricted or that an emergency prevents the sale or valuation of the Fund’s securities; or

◼

When the SEC orders a suspension to protect the Fund’s shareholders.

◼

The Fund typically uses cash and cash equivalents held in its portfolio or sells portfolio assets to meet redemption requests. In unusual circumstances or under stressed market conditions, the Fund may use other methods to raise cash to meet redemption requests. For example, the Fund may draw funds from a line of credit or borrow available cash held by other Victory Funds under an “interfund lending program” in reliance on an exemptive order from the SEC.

◼

The Fund will pay redemptions by any one shareholder during any 90-day period in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1.00% of the Fund’s net assets. The Fund reserves the right to pay the remaining portion “in kind,” that is, in portfolio securities rather than cash. Securities received pursuant to an in-kind redemption are subject to market risk until sold and may be subject to brokerage and other fees.

◼

If you choose to have your redemption proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the redemption check to you or the check remains outstanding for more than six months, the Fund reserves the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed redemption checks.

34

Distributions and Taxes  

Buying a dividend. You should check the Fund's distribution schedule before you invest.

If you buy shares of the Fund shortly before it makes a distribution,

some of your investment may come back to you as a taxable distribution.

As a shareholder, you are entitled to your share of net income and capital gains on the Fund's investments. The Fund passes its earnings along to investors in the form of dividends. Dividends paid by the Fund represent the net income from dividends and interest earned on investments after expenses. The Fund will distribute short-term gains, as necessary, and if the Fund makes a long-term capital gain distribution, it is normally paid once a year.

Ordinarily, the Fund declares and pays dividends monthly. However, the Fund may not always pay a dividend or distribution for a given period. Each class of shares declares and pays dividends separately.

Distributions can be received in one of the following ways. Please check with your Investment Professional if you are unsure of which option is right for you.

Reinvestment Option

You can have distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of your Fund. If you do not indicate another choice on your Account Application, you will be assigned this option automatically.

Cash Option

If you elect to receive your distributions by check, and the distribution amount is $25 or less, the amount will automatically be reinvested in the Fund. Otherwise, a check will be mailed to you no later than seven days after the dividend payment date. If you choose to have your distribution proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the distribution check to you or the check remains outstanding for at least six months, the distribution option on your account will default to the reinvestment option as described above. The Fund reserves the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution checks.

Income Earned Option

You can automatically reinvest your dividends in additional Fund shares and have your capital gains paid in cash, or reinvest capital gains and have your dividends paid in cash.

Directed Distributions Option

In most cases, you can automatically reinvest distributions in shares of another Victory Fund. If you reinvest your distributions in a different Victory Fund, you will pay a sales charge on the amount of reinvested distributions.

Directed Bank Account Option

In most cases, you can automatically transfer distributions to your bank checking or savings account. Under normal circumstances, the transfer agent will transfer your distributions within seven days of the dividend payment date. The bank account must have a registration identical to that of your Fund account.  

Your choice of distribution should be set up on the original Account Application.

If you would like to change the option you selected, please call 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863).

Distributions and Taxes

Important Information About Taxes  

The tax information in this Prospectus is provided as general information. You should

consult your own tax adviser about the tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

The Fund expects to pay no federal income tax on the earnings and capital gains it distributes to shareholders.

◼

Qualified dividend income received from the Fund by noncorporate shareholders will be taxed at long-term capital gain rates to the extent attributable to qualified dividend income received by the Fund, subject to certain holding period requirements. Nonqualified dividends, dividends received by corporate shareholders and dividends from the Fund’s short-term capital gains are taxable as ordinary income. Dividends from the Fund’s long-term capital gains are taxable as long-term capital gains.

◼

You will pay tax on dividends from the Fund whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund.

◼

Dividends from the Fund that are attributable to interest on certain U.S. government obligations, if any, may be exempt from certain state and local income taxes. The extent to which ordinary dividends are attributable to these U.S. government obligations will be provided on the tax statements you receive from the Fund.

◼

An exchange of the Fund’s shares for shares of another Victory Fund will be treated as a sale. When you sell or exchange shares of the Fund, you generally will recognize any gain or loss.

◼

An exchange of one class of the Fund’s shares for shares of another class of the same Fund generally constitutes a nontaxable exchange.

◼

Distributions from the Fund and gains from the disposition of your shares may also be subject to state and local income tax.

◼

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (which includes dividends and gain recognized on a disposition of shares) of certain U.S. individuals, estates, and trusts.

◼

Certain dividends paid to you in January will be taxable as if they had been paid to you the previous December.

◼

Tax statements will be mailed from the Fund by mid-February showing the amounts and tax status of distributions made to you in the prior calendar year.

◼

Because your tax treatment depends on your purchase price and tax position, you should keep your regular account statements for use in determining your tax.

◼

The Fund is generally required by law to provide you and the Internal Revenue Service with certain cost basis information related to the sale or redemption of any of your shares in the Fund acquired on or after January 1, 2012, (including distributions that are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund).

◼

The Fund may be required to withhold tax from dividends and redemption proceeds if you fail to give your correct social security or taxpayer identification number, fail to make required certifications, or the Fund is notified by the Internal Revenue Service that backup withholding is required.

◼

If you are a nonresident alien individual, foreign trust or estate, foreign corporation or foreign partnership, the Fund’s ordinary income dividends may be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

Under the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,” unless certain foreign entities comply with certain IRS requirements that generally require them to report information regarding U.S. persons investing in, or holding accounts with, such entities, a 30% U.S. withholding tax may

36

Distributions and Taxes

apply to dividends paid by the Fund to such entities. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

You should review the more detailed discussion of federal income tax considerations in the SAI and consult your tax adviser regarding the federal, state, local, or foreign tax consequences resulting from your investment in the Fund.

◼

The Fund may provide estimated capital gain distribution information through the website at VictoryFunds.com.

Important Fund Policies

Customer Identification Program

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations.

As a result, the Victory Funds must obtain the following information for each person who opens a new account:

◼

Name;

◼

Date of birth (for individuals);

◼

Residential or business street address (although post office boxes are still permitted for mailing); and

◼

Social security number, taxpayer identification number, or other identifying number.

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities. Federal law prohibits the Victory Funds and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Victory Funds may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified. The Victory Funds may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares will be redeemed at the NAV next calculated after the account is closed.

Account Maintenance Information

For the following non-financial transactions, the Victory Funds require proof that your signature authorizing a transaction is authentic. This verification can be provided in all cases by either a Signature Validation Program (SVP) stamp or a Medallion signature guarantee (MSG). In some instances a Notary Public stamp is an acceptable alternative. As with the MSG, a SVP stamp can also be obtained from a financial institution that is a member of the SVP program.

Market Timing

The Victory Funds discourage frequent purchases and redemptions of Fund shares (market timing). Market timing allows investors to take advantage of market inefficiencies, sometimes to the disadvantage of other shareholders. Market timing increases Fund expenses to all shareholders by increasing portfolio turnover. In addition, market timing could potentially dilute share value for all other shareholders by requiring the Fund to hold more cash than it normally would.

The Fund's Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures with respect to market timing. In order to prevent or minimize market timing, the Fund will:

◼

Employ “fair value” pricing, as described in this Prospectus under Share Price, to minimize the discrepancies between a security’s market quotation and its perceived market value, which often gives rise to market timing activity; and

◼

Monitor for suspected market timing based on “short-term transaction” activity, that is, a purchase or redemption of the Fund and, as applicable, a subsequent redemption or purchase of the same Fund, or an exchange of all or part of that same Fund.

In monitoring for market timing activity, we consider, among other things, the frequency of your trades and whether you acquired your Fund shares directly through the transfer agent or whether you combined your trades with a group of shareholders in an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary.

Frequent trading by a shareholder is generally a characteristic of market timing. Therefore, any account in which Fund shares are acquired directly through the transfer agent, or where the Fund can adequately identify the shareholder, with a history of three short-term transactions within 90 days or less is suspected of market timing and the shareholder’s trading privileges (other than redemption of Fund shares) will be suspended.

We may make exceptions to the “short-term transaction” policy for certain types of transactions if, in the opinion of the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, the transactions do not represent short-term or excessive trading or are not abusive or harmful to the Fund, such as, but not limited to, systematic transactions, required minimum retirement distributions, transactions initiated by the Fund or administrator and transactions by certain qualified funds-of-funds.

If you acquired shares through an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary (such as investment advisers, broker-dealers, third-party administrators or insurance companies), and market timing is suspected, different purchase and exchange limitations may apply. We may rely upon a financial intermediary’s policy to deter short-term or excessive trading (i) if we believe that the financial intermediary’s policy is reasonably designed to detect and deter transactions that are not in the best interests of the Fund, or (ii) if we receive an undertaking from the financial intermediary to enforce short-term or excessive trading policies on behalf of the Fund that provide a substantially similar level of protection for the Fund against such transactions. If you hold your Fund shares through a financial intermediary, you are advised to consult the intermediary to determine what purchase and exchange limitations apply to your account.

38

Important Fund Policies

We reserve the right to reject or cancel a purchase or exchange order for any reason without prior notice. We will deny your request to purchase or exchange your shares if we believe that the transaction is part of a market timing strategy.

The Fund's market timing policies and procedures may be modified or terminated at any time under the oversight of the Board of Trustees.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure

A description of the Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Fund's portfolio securities is available in the Fund's SAI, which is available upon request and on the Fund's website at VictoryFunds.com.

Performance

The Victory Funds may advertise the performance of the Fund by comparing it to other mutual funds with similar objectives and policies. Performance information also may appear in various publications. Any fees charged by Investment Professionals may not be reflected in these performance calculations.

Advertising information may include the average annual total return of the Fund calculated on a compounded basis for specified periods of time. Total return information will be calculated according to rules established by the SEC. Such information may include performance rankings and similar information from independent organizations and publications.

Shareholder Communications

In order to eliminate duplicate mailings to an address at which two or more shareholders with the same last name reside, the Victory Funds may send only one copy of any shareholder reports, proxy statements, prospectuses and their supplements, unless you have instructed us to the contrary. You may request that the Victory Funds send these documents to each shareholder individually by calling the Victory Funds at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863), and they will be delivered promptly.

While this Prospectus and the SAI of the Fund describe pertinent information about the Trust and the Fund, neither this Prospectus nor the SAI represents a contract between the Trust or the Fund and any shareholder.

39

Financial Highlights

The following financial highlights tables reflect historical information about shares of the Fund and are intended to help you understand the Fund's financial performance for the past five years, or, if shorter, the period of its operations. Certain information shows the results of an investment in one share of the Fund. To the extent the Fund invests in other funds, the Total Annual Operating Expenses included in the Fund's Fees and Expenses Table may not correlate to the ratio of expenses to average net assets in the financial highlights below. The total returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in the Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).

The information presented  for the fiscal years ended on or after June 30, 2019, has been audited by Cohen & Company, Ltd., the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, whose report, along with the Fund's financial statements, are included in the Fund's annual report. The information for all prior periods has been audited by a different independent registered public accounting firm. The Fund's annual and semi-annual reports are available by calling the Victory Funds at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) and at www.VictoryFunds.com.

Edward D. Jones & Co (”Edward Jones“)

Clients of Edward Jones (also referred to as “shareholders”) purchasing fund shares on the Edward Jones commission and fee-based platforms are eligible only for the following sales charge discounts (also referred to as “breakpoints”) and waivers, which can differ from discounts and waivers described elsewhere in the Fund’s Prospectus or statement of additional information (”SAI“) or through another

49

Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries

broker-dealer. In all instances, it is the shareholder’s responsibility to inform Edward Jones at the time of purchase of any relationship, holdings of the Victory Funds, or other facts qualifying the purchaser for discounts or waivers. Edward Jones can ask for documentation of such circumstance. Shareholders should contact Edward Jones if they have questions regarding their eligibility for these discounts and waivers.

Breakpoints - Breakpoint pricing, otherwise known as volume pricing, at dollar thresholds as described in the prospectus.

◼

Rights of Accumulation (“ROA”)

◼

The applicable sales charge on a purchase of Class A shares is determined by taking into account all share classes (except certain money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) of the Victory Funds held by the shareholder or in an account grouped by Edward Jones with other accounts for the purpose of providing certain pricing considerations (“pricing groups”). If grouping assets as a shareholder, this includes all share classes held on the Edward Jones platform and/or held on another platform. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the ROA calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Money market funds are included only if such shares were sold with a sales charge at the time of purchase or acquired in exchange for shares purchased with a sales charge.

◼

ROA is determined by calculating the higher of cost minus redemptions or market value (current shares x NAV).

◼

The employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan may elect to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping as opposed to including all share classes at a shareholder or pricing group level.

◼

Letter of Intent (“LOI”)

◼

Through a LOI, shareholders can receive the sales charge and breakpoint discounts for purchases shareholders intend to make over a 13-month period from the date Edward Jones receives the LOI. The LOI is determined by calculating the higher of cost or market value of qualifying holdings at LOI initiation in combination with the value that the shareholder intends to buy over a 13-month period to calculate the front-end sales charge and any breakpoint discounts. Each purchase the shareholder makes during that 13-month period will receive the sales charge and breakpoint discount that applies to the total amount. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the LOI calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Purchases made before the LOI is received by Edward Jones are not adjusted under the LOI and will not reduce the sales charge previously paid. Sales charges will be adjusted if LOI is not met.

◼

If the employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan has elected to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping, LOIs will also be at the plan-level and may only be established by the employer.

Sales Charge Waivers - Sales charges are waived for the following shareholders and in the following situations:

◼

Associates of Edward Jones and its affiliates and their family members who are in the same pricing group (as determined by Edward Jones under its policies and procedures) as the associate. This waiver will continue for the remainder of the associate’s life if the associate retires from Edward Jones in good-standing and remains in good standing pursuant to Edward Jones' policies and procedures.

◼

◼

◼

Shares exchanged into Class A shares from another share class so long as the exchange is into the same fund and was initiated at the discretion of Edward Jones. Edward Jones is responsible for any remaining CDSC due to the fund company, if applicable. Any future purchases are subject to the applicable sales charge as disclosed in the prospectus.

◼

Exchanges from Class C shares to Class A shares of the same fund, generally, in the 84th month following the anniversary of the purchase date or earlier at the discretion of Edward Jones.

Integrity Discovery Fund Summary

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 730	$ 1,057	$ 1,406	$ 2,386
Class C	$ 348	$ 849	$ 1,476	$ 3,165
Class R	$211	$724	$1,264	$2,740
Class Y	$133	$415	$718	$1,579

The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class C	$248	$849	$1,476	$3,165

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 41% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of micro-capitalization companies. Micro-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase lower than the largest company in the bottom 75% (based on index weightings) of the Russell 2000® Index, which as of September 30, 2021 included companies with market capitalizations below $4.3 billion. The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.

When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.

The Fund focuses on undiscovered, micro-capitalization companies in its attempt to provide investors with potentially higher returns than a fund that invests primarily in larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization companies are generally not as well known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies, the Adviser believes these inefficiencies in the marketplace may provide higher returns.

2

Integrity Discovery Fund Summary

Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the financials sector.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Micro-Capitalization Stock Risk – Micro-capitalization companies tend to be less seasoned and may lose market share or profits to a greater extent than larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be more difficult to purchase and sell. Micro-capitalization companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

◼

Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession,

3

Integrity Discovery Fund Summary

currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

Performance of Class A, C, R and Y shares reflects the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, R and Y shares of the Munder Micro-Cap Equity Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management and subadvised by Integrity Asset Management, LLC). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to

reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Micro-Cap Fund.

Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 671	$ 950	$ 1,249	$ 2,096
Class C	$278	$3,170	$5,525	$9,449
Class R6	$61	$253	$460	$1,059
Class Y	$77	$311	$563	$1,287

The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class C	$178	$3,170	$5,525	$9,449

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 67% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.

Mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.

From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

◼

Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 56% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund Summary

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Small-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund.

Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund Summary

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

The performance figures for Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares of the Munder Veracity Small-Cap Value Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management and sub-advised by Integrity Asset Management, LLC) (“Munder Fund”). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Fund. The historical performance for the Munder Fund’s Class A and Y shares in the bar chart and table below for the periods prior to May 14, 2011 is that of the Class R and I shares, respectively, of the Veracity Small Cap Value Fund (the predecessor to the Munder Fund) (“Veracity Fund”). The performance for Class A and Y shares have not been restated to reflect any difference in the expenses of the Veracity Fund’s Class R and I shares, respectively. The performance for Class C and R shares in the table below for the periods prior to May 14, 2011 is the performance and inception date of the Veracity Fund’s Class I shares adjusted for differences in the applicable sales loads and Rule 12b-1 fees of these

classes.

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares 

Investment Minimums	Class A	Class C	Class R	Class R6	Class Y
Minimum Initial Investment	$2,500	$2,500	None	None	$1,000,000

For Class A  and Class C shares a $1,000 minimum initial purchase amount and a $50 minimum subsequent purchase amount apply for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), gift/transfer to minor accounts, and purchases through automatic investment plans.

You may redeem your shares on any day the Fund is open for business. Redemption requests may be made by telephone (with prior appropriate approval) or by mail.

When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value (“NAV”) after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services for investments in all classes except Class R6. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

2

Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 1.13%, 0.83% and 0.88% of the Fund’s Class A, Class R6 and Class Y shares, respectively, through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement

may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 684	$ 1,024	$ 1,386	$ 2,404
Class R6	$ 85	$ 289	$ 509	$ 1,145
Class Y	$ 90	$ 302	$ 532	$1,192

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 61% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small- to mid-capitalization companies. Small- to mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2500® Index ($40.0 million to $30.5 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.

When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.

The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural

20

Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- and mid-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

Additional Fund Information  

Victory Capital Management Inc., which we refer to as the “Adviser”

throughout the Prospectus, manages each Fund.

The Victory Integrity Discovery Fund, Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund, Victory Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund and Victory Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund (the “Funds”) are each managed by the Adviser, who also manages other funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Together, these funds are referred to in this Prospectus as the “Victory Funds” or, more simply, the “Funds.”

The following section describes additional information about the principal investment strategy the Funds will use under normal market conditions to pursue their investment objective, as well as any secondary strategies the Funds may use, and the related risks. This Prospectus does not attempt to describe all of the various investment techniques and types of investments that the Adviser may use in managing the Funds. The Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) includes more information about the Funds, their investments, and the related risks. Under adverse, unstable or abnormal market conditions, a Fund may be unable to pursue or achieve its investment objective and, for temporary purposes, may invest some or all of its assets in a variety of instruments or assets, including high-quality fixed-income securities, cash and cash equivalents. For cash management purposes, each Fund may hold all or a portion of its assets in cash, short-term money market instruments or shares of other investment companies. These positions may reduce the benefit from any upswing in the market, cause a Fund to fail to meet its investment objective and increase a Fund's expenses.

When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment. The Adviser finds these value-oriented investments by, among other things: (1) rigorously analyzing the company’s financial characteristics and assessing the quality of the company’s management; (2) considering comparative price-to-book, price-to-sales and price-to-cash flow ratios; and (3) analyzing cash flows to identify stocks with the most attractive potential returns.

The Adviser regularly reviews each Fund’s investments and will sell securities when the Adviser believes the securities are no longer attractive because (1) a deterioration in rank of the security in accordance with the Adviser’s process, (2) of price appreciation, (3) of a change in the fundamental outlook of the company or (4) other investments available are considered to be more attractive.

Each Fund’s investment objective and policy to invest at least 80% of its assets in the type of securities suggested by the Fund's name is non-fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval upon at least 60 days’ written notice to shareholders. For purposes of a Fund’s 80% investment policy, “assets” means the Fund’s net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, but exclusive of any collateral held from securities lending.

Investments

The following describes the types of securities each Fund may purchase under normal market conditions to achieve its principal investment strategy. The Funds will not necessarily buy all of the securities listed below.

U.S. Equity Securities

Can include common stock, preferred stock, and securities that are convertible or exchangeable into common stock of U.S. corporations.

Foreign Securities

Can include common stock and convertible preferred stock of non-U.S. corporations. Also may include American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), which are receipts issued by a bank or trust company and evidence ownership of underlying securities issued by foreign corporations, and ETFs that invest in foreign corporations.

Additional Fund Strategies. The Adviser may use other types of investment strategies in pursuing each Fund's overall investment objective. The following describes the types of securities that the Adviser may purchase or investment techniques the Adviser may employ that are not considered to be a part of the Funds' principal investment strategies. Additional securities and techniques are described in the Funds' SAI.

Derivatives

From time to time, the Fund may enter into futures contracts and write covered call options. Derivative instruments are financial contracts whose value is based on an underlying security or asset, a currency exchange rate, an interest rate or a market index. Many types of instruments representing a wide range of potential risks and rewards are derivatives, including futures contracts, options on futures contracts, options, and forward currency exchange contracts. The Fund may, but is not required to, use derivatives for hedging (attempting to reduce risk by offsetting one investment position with another), for cash management (attempting to remain fully invested while maintaining liquidity) or to gain exposure to an investment in a manner other than investing in the asset directly. Hedging may relate to a specific investment, a group of investments, or a Fund’s portfolio as a whole. The Fund will not use derivatives for speculative purposes.

Initial Public Offerings (IPOs)

The Funds may at times have the opportunity to invest in securities offered in initial public offerings (“IPOs”). If a Fund’s portfolio manager believes that a particular IPO is very likely to increase in value immediately after the initial offering, it is possible (although it will not necessarily be the case) that the Fund will invest in the IPO, even if the security is one in which the Fund might not typically otherwise invest. It is possible, however, that a Fund will lose money on an investment in an IPO, even in such a case.

Investment Companies

A Fund may invest in securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, if those companies invest in securities consistent with the Fund's investment objective and policies. ETFs are investment companies the shares of which are bought and sold on a securities exchange.

Securities Lending

To enhance the return on its portfolio, a Fund may lend portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and financial institutions to realize additional income under guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees. Each loan will be secured continuously by collateral in the form of cash, securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities.

Equity Securities Risk — The market prices of equity securities, which may include common stocks and other stock-related securities such as preferred stocks, convertible securities and rights and warrants, may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. A Fund may continue to accept new subscriptions and to make additional investments in equity securities even under general market conditions that a Fund’s investment team views as unfavorable for equity securities. The value of a security may decline for reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage, and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services or due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. Unlike debt securities, which have preference to a company’s assets in case of liquidation, common stock, are entitled to the residual value after the company meets its other obligations. Unlike common stock, preferred stock generally pays a fixed dividend from a company’s earnings and may have a preference over common stock on the distribution of a company’s assets in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation. Preferred stockholders’ liquidation rights are subordinate to the company’s debt holders and creditors. If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may be less attractive and the price of preferred stocks may decline. Convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible securities of similar quality. Convertible securities may gain or lose value due to changes in the issuer’s operating results, financial condition, credit rating and changes in interest rates and other general economic, industry and market conditions. Rights and warrants can provide a greater potential for profit or loss than an equivalent investment in the underlying security. Prices of warrants and rights do not necessarily move in tandem with the prices of the underlying securities and therefore are highly volatile and speculative investments.

Foreign Securities Risk

Foreign Investments Risk — Foreign investments involve certain special risks. For example, compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies. Foreign issuers may not be subject to the uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices prevalent in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments. Investments in depositary receipts (such as ADRs and GDRs) may also involve additional risks associated with the non-uniform terms that apply to depositary receipt programs, credit exposure to the depository bank and to the sponsors and other parties with whom the depository bank establishes the programs, currency risk and the risk of an illiquid market for depositary receipts. Certain of these risks may also apply to some extent to U.S. investments that are denominated in foreign currencies and to investments in U.S. companies that have significant foreign operations.

Risk Factors

◼

Political Risk — Foreign securities markets may be more volatile than their counterparts in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Foreign settlement procedures may also involve additional risks, and foreign issuers can be impacted by changes to trade policies and trade disputes. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments.

◼

Liquidity Risk — Securities that trade less frequently or with lower trade volume can be more difficult or more costly to buy or sell than more liquid or active investments. Liquidity risk is a factor of the trading volume of a particular investment, as well as the size and liquidity of the entire local market. On the whole, foreign exchanges are smaller and less liquid than U.S. exchanges. See also Liquidity Risk.

◼

Currency Risk — Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment. Adverse changes in exchange rates, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may erode or reverse any gains produced by investments denominated in foreign currencies and may widen any losses.

◼

Legal Risk — Legal remedies for investors in foreign countries may be more limited than the legal remedies available in the U.S.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, a Fund's performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Large Shareholder Risk — A Fund, like all investment companies, pools the investments of many investors. Actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. For example, significant levels of new investments in a Fund by shareholders may cause the Fund to have more cash than would otherwise be the case, which might have a positive or negative impact on Fund performance. Similarly, redemption activity might cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities, which may increase transaction costs and might generate a capital gain or loss, or cause it to borrow funds on a short-term basis to cover redemptions, which would cause the Fund to incur costs that, in effect, would be borne by all shareholders and not just the redeeming shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity also may affect the per share amount of a Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an Affiliated Fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in a Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.

Liquidity Risk — Liquidity risk exists when particular investments cannot be disposed of quickly in the normal course of business. The ability of the Fund to dispose of such investments at advantageous prices may be greatly limited, and the Fund may have to continue to hold such investments during periods when the Adviser would otherwise have sold them (in order, for example, to meet redemption requests or to take advantage of other investment opportunities). Market values for illiquid investments may not be readily available, and there can be no assurance that any fair value assigned to an illiquid investment at any time will accurately reflect the price the Fund might receive upon the sale of that investment. Adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer, including rising interest rates, may adversely affect the liquidity of the Fund’s investments and the Fund may be forced to sell large amounts of investments more quickly than it normally would in the ordinary course of business. In such cases the sale proceeds received by a Fund may be substantially less than if the Fund had been able to sell the

28

Risk Factors

investments in more orderly transactions, and the sale price may be substantially lower than the price previously used by the Fund to value the investment for purposes of determining the Fund’s net asset value. Some investments held by a Fund may be restricted as to resale, and there is often no ready market for such investments. In addition, a Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price.

Management Risk — The investment process used by the investment team may produce incorrect judgments about the value of a particular asset or the team may implement its investment strategy in a way that may not produce the desired results.

Sector Focus Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments. Additionally, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile when the Fund’s investments are focused in a particular sector. Since benchmark sector weights influence the Fund’s sector exposure, the Fund may tend to be more heavily weighted in companies in the financials sector. The values of companies in the financials sector are particularly vulnerable to economic downturns and changes in government regulation and interest rates.

◼

Financials Sector Risk — A Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of a Fund’s investments and could make a Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial services companies are subject to extensive governmental regulation, which may limit both the amounts and types of loans and other financial commitments they can make, the interest rates and fees they can charge, the scope of their activities, the prices they can charge and the amount of capital they must maintain. Profitability is largely dependent on the availability and cost of capital funds and can fluctuate significantly when interest rates change or due to increased competition. In addition, deterioration of the credit markets generally may cause an adverse impact in a broad range of markets, including U.S. and international credit and interbank money markets generally, thereby affecting a wide range of financial institutions and markets. Credit losses resulting from financial difficulties of borrowers and financial losses associated with investment activities can negatively impact the sector. Insurance companies may be subject to severe price competition. Adverse economic, business or political developments could adversely affect financial institutions engaged in mortgage finance or other lending or investing activities directly or indirectly connected to the value of real estate.

Smaller-Company Stock Risk — Small- or mid-sized companies often have more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies and, therefore, may be more susceptible to market downturns or changing economic conditions. In addition, such companies may have been recently organized and have little or no track record of success. Also, the Adviser may not have had an opportunity to evaluate such newer companies’ performance in adverse or fluctuating market conditions. The securities of smaller-sized companies may trade less frequently and in smaller volume than more widely held securities. Prices of small- or mid-sized companies tend to be more volatile than those of larger companies and small- or mid-sized issuers may be subject to greater degrees of changes in their earnings and prospects. Since smaller company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be often more difficult to purchase and sell.

Stock Market Risk — Stock market risk refers to the fact that stock (equity securities) prices typically fluctuate more than the values of other types of securities, typically in response to changes in the particular company’s financial condition and factors affecting the market in general. Over time, the stock market tends to move in cycles, with periods when stock prices rise, and periods when stock prices decline. A slower-growth or recessionary economic environment could have an adverse effect

29

Risk Factors

on stock prices. Consequently, a broad-based market drop may also cause a stock’s price to fall. Portfolio securities may also decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment, or due to factors affecting particular industries represented in the securities markets, such as competitive conditions. Changes in the financial condition of a single issuer can impact a market as a whole, and adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities. In addition, the markets may not favor a particular kind of security, including equity securities. Values of securities may fall due to factors affecting a particular issuer, industry or the securities market as a whole.

Market turmoil may be reflected in perceptions of economic uncertainty, price volatility in the equity and debt markets, and fluctuating trading liquidity. In response, governments may adopt a variety of fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs, and lower interest rates. These policies may not be successful and any unexpected or quick reversal of these policies could increase volatility in the equity and debt markets. Market conditions and economic risks could have a significant effect on domestic and international economies and could add significantly to the risks of increased volatility and decreased liquidity for a Fund's portfolio.

◼

Geopolitical/Natural Disaster Risk — Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. Epidemics and/or pandemics, such as the coronavirus (or COVID-19), may result in, among other things, closing borders, disruptions to healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, cancellations, disruptions to supply chains and consumer activity, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact may last for extended periods.

◼

Information Technology and Operational Risk — Markets and market participants are increasingly reliant upon both publicly available and proprietary information data systems. Data imprecision, software or other technology malfunctions, programming inaccuracies, unauthorized use or access, and similar circumstances may impair the performance of these systems and may have an adverse impact upon a single issuer, a group of issuers, or the market at large. The information technology and other operational systems upon which a Fund’s service providers rely may be subject to cyber attack or other technological disruptions, and could otherwise disrupt the ability of these service providers to perform essential tasks for a Fund. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on either specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in a Fund being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or accurately price its investments.

Additional Risk Factors. The Adviser may use several types of investment strategies in pursuing each Fund's overall investment objective. The following risks are those that the Adviser does not consider to be principal risks of the Funds. Additional risks are included in the Funds' SAI.

Derivatives Risk — Derivatives, such as forward currency contracts, futures contracts and options on futures contracts, are subject to the risk that small price movements can result in substantial gains or losses. Derivatives also entail exposure to counterparty risk, the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the relevant securities, assets or indices. The Fund “covers” its exposure to certain derivative contracts by

30

Risk Factors

segregating or designating liquid assets on its records sufficient to satisfy current payment obligations, which may expose the Fund to the market through both the underlying assets subject to the contract and the assets used as cover. The use of derivatives may cause the Fund to incur losses greater than those that would have occurred had derivatives not been used.

IPO Risk — Investments in IPOs may result in increased transaction costs and expenses and the realization of short-term capital gains and distributions. In addition, in the period immediately following an IPO, investments may be subject to more extreme price volatility than that of other equity investments. A Fund may lose all or part of its investment if the companies making their IPOs fail and their product lines fail to achieve an adequate level of market recognition or acceptance. IPOs may not be available to a Fund at all times, and a Fund may not always invest in IPOs offered to it. Investments in IPOs may have a substantial beneficial effect on a Fund’s investment performance. A Fund's investment return earned during a period of substantial investment in IPOs may not be sustained during other periods when the Fund makes more limited, or no, investments in IPOs.

Investment Company Risk — The Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective may be directly related to the ability of other investment companies (including ETFs) held by the Fund to meet their investment objectives. In addition, shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the underlying investment companies. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.

Securities Lending Risk — The risk in lending portfolio securities, as with other extensions of credit, consists of the possibility of loss to a Fund due to (1) the inability of the borrower to return the securities, (2) a delay in receiving additional collateral to adequately cover any fluctuations in the value of securities on loan, (3) a delay in recovery of the securities, or (4) the loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. These events could trigger adverse tax consequences for a Fund. In addition, a Fund is responsible for any loss that might result from its investment of the borrower’s collateral. In determining whether to lend securities, the Adviser or a Fund’s securities lending agent will consider relevant facts and circumstances, including the creditworthiness of the borrower.

Organization and Management of the Funds

The Funds' Board of Trustees has the overall responsibility for overseeing the management of each Fund.

The Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the investment adviser to each of the Victory Funds pursuant to an investment management agreement. The Adviser oversees the operations of the Funds according to investment policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The Adviser is a New York corporation that is registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As of September 30, 2021, the Adviser managed and advised assets totaling in excess of $159.8 billion for individual and institutional clients. The Adviser’s principal address is 15935 La Cantera Parkway, San Antonio, TX 78256.

The Adviser is a diversified global asset manager comprised of multiple investment teams, referred to as investment franchises, each of which utilizes an independent approach to investing. Integrity Asset Management (“Integrity”) is the investment franchise responsible for the management of the Funds.

Advisory fees to be paid annually, before waivers, will be equal to the following:  

Fund	Advisory Fee
Victory Integrity Discovery Fund	1.00%
Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund	0.75%
Victory Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund	0.86%
Victory Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund	0.80%

See “Fund Fees and Expenses” for information about any contractual agreement by the Adviser to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses with respect to a Fund. From time to time, the Adviser also may voluntarily waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in amounts exceeding those required to be waived or reimbursed under any contractual agreement that may be in place with respect to a Fund.

A discussion of the Board’s most recent considerations in approving the Advisory Agreement is included in each Fund’s semi-annual report for the period ended December 31.

Investing with the Victory Funds  

All you need to do to get started is to fill out an application.

If you are looking for a convenient way to open an account or to add money to an existing account, we can help. The sections that follow will serve as a guide to your investment with the Victory Funds. These sections describe many of the share classes currently offered by the Victory Funds. The section Choosing a Share Class will help you decide which share class it may be to your advantage to buy.

Keep in mind that Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. In addition, not all Victory Funds offer each class of shares described below, and therefore, certain classes may be discussed that are not necessarily offered by a Fund. The classes of shares that are offered by a Fund are those listed on the cover page designated with a ticker symbol. A Fund may also offer other share classes in different prospectuses.

This section of the Prospectus also describes how to open an account, how to access information about your account, and how to buy, exchange, and sell shares of a Victory Fund. Note, this information may vary if you invest through a third party such as a brokerage firm and will be dependent on that firm's policies and practices. Consult your Investment Professional for specific details.

We want to make it simple for you to do business with us. If you have questions about any of this information, please call your Investment Professional or one of our customer service representatives at 800-539-FUND. They will be happy to assist you.  

An Investment Professional is an investment consultant, salesperson, financial planner,

investment adviser, or trust officer who provides you with investment information.

Your Investment Professional also can help you decide which share class is best for you.

Investment Professionals and other financial intermediaries may charge fees for their services.

34

Share Price  

The daily NAV is useful to you as a shareholder because the NAV,

multiplied by the number of Fund shares you own, gives you the value of your investment.

Each Victory Fund calculates its share price, called its net asset value (“NAV”), each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”), which is normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event of an emergency or other disruption in trading on the NYSE, a Fund’s share price will be determined based upon the close of the NYSE. You may buy, exchange, and sell your shares on any business day at a price that is based on the NAV that is next calculated after you place your order. A business day is a day on which the NYSE is open.

To the extent a Fund’s investments include securities that are primarily traded in foreign markets, the value of those securities may change on days when shareholders are unable to purchase and redeem a Fund’s shares, such as on weekends or other days when the Fund does not price its shares.

Each Fund prices its investments based on market value when market quotations are readily available. When these quotations are not readily available, a Fund will price its investments at fair value according to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. A Fund will fair value a security when:

◼

Trading in the security has been halted;

◼

The market quotation for the security is clearly erroneous due to a clerical error;

◼

The security’s liquidity decreases such that, in the Adviser's opinion, the market quotation has become stale; or

◼

An event occurs after the close of the trading market (but before the Fund’s NAV is calculated) that, in the Adviser’s opinion, materially affects the value of the security.

The use of fair value pricing may minimize arbitrage opportunities that attempt to exploit the differences between a security's market quotation and its fair value. The use of fair value pricing may not, however, always reflect a security’s actual market value in light of subsequent relevant information, and the security’s opening price on the next trading day may be different from the fair value price assigned to the security.

Each Victory Fund calculates the NAV of each share class by adding up the total value of the investments and other assets of that class, subtracting its liabilities, and then dividing that figure by the number of outstanding shares of the class.  

NAV=	Total Assets - Liabilities
	Number of Shares Outstanding

You may be able to find a Fund's NAV each day in The Wall Street Journal and other newspapers. Newspapers do not normally publish fund information until a fund reaches a specific number of shareholders or level of assets. You may also find a Fund's NAV by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting the Funds' website at VictoryFunds.com.

Share Classes

When you purchase shares of a Fund, you must choose a share class. The Victory Funds offer Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares. Each share class represents an interest in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes differ in the sales charges, if any, and expenses that apply

36

Choosing a Share Class

to your investment, allowing you and your Investment Professional to choose the class that best suits your investment needs. Not all Victory Funds offer all classes of shares, and some classes of shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. The Victory Funds may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

Deciding which share class best suits your investment needs depends on a number of factors that you should discuss with your Investment Professional, including: how long you expect to hold your investment, how much you intend to invest, and the total expenses associated with each share class.

The Funds reserve the right to change the eligibility criteria for purchasing a particular share class. For example, a class of shares may be available to purchase only by retirement plans or by institutional investors. The Funds may also waive any applicable eligibility criteria or investment minimums at its discretion.

A Fund or any class may be closed at any time for failure to achieve an economical level of assets or for other reasons. Certain financial intermediaries who hold shares on behalf of their customers impose fees when the amount of shares of a particular class falls below a minimum threshold. To the extent that the amount of shares falls below that threshold, the Funds reserve the right to liquidate the shares held in accounts maintained by the financial intermediary.

Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares  

For historical expense information, see the “Financial Highlights”

at the end of this Prospectus.

Class A shares are sold at their public offering price, which is the NAV plus any applicable initial sales charge, also referred to as the “front-end sales load.” The sales charge may be reduced or eliminated for larger purchases, as detailed below or as described under Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares. The investment levels required to obtain a reduced sales charge are commonly referred to as “breakpoints.”

All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through an intermediary specified in Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

In order to obtain a breakpoint discount, you must inform the Victory Funds or your Investment Professional at the time you purchase shares of the existence of the other Victory accounts or purchases of Victory Funds that are eligible to be linked for the purpose of calculating the initial sales charge. The Fund or your Investment Professional may ask you for records or other information about other Victory Funds held in your Victory accounts and any linked accounts, such as accounts opened with a different financial intermediary.

The current sales charge rates and breakpoint levels for Class A shares of the Funds are listed below:  

Your Investment in the Fund	Sales Charge as a % of Offering Price	Sales Charge as a % of Your Investment
Up to $49,999	5.75%	6.10%
$50,000 up to $99,999	4.50%	4.71%
$100,000 up to $249,999	3.50%	3.63%
$250,000 up to $499,999	2.50%	2.56%
$500,000 up to $999,999	2.00%	2.04%

1 A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions. You may be eligible for a reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. See CDSC Reductions for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries for details.

Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares  

There are several ways you can combine multiple purchases of Class A shares of the Victory

Funds to take advantage of reduced sales charges and, in some cases, eliminate sales charges.

There are a number of ways you can reduce your sales charges, which we describe below. In order to obtain a Class A sales charge reduction or waiver, you must provide your financial intermediary or the Funds' transfer agent, at the time of purchase, with current information regarding shares of any Victory Funds held in other accounts. This information must include account statements or other records (including written representations from the intermediary holding the shares) that indicate that a sales charge was paid for shares of the Victory Funds held in: any accounts (e.g., retirement accounts) established (i) with the Victory Funds and your investment professional; (ii) with other financial intermediaries; and (iii) in the name of immediate family household members (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21).

The availability of a sales charge reduction or waiver discussed below will depend upon whether you purchase your shares directly from the Funds or through a financial intermediary. If you are eligible for a sales charge reduction because you own shares of other Victory Funds, you must notify the Funds or your financial intermediary at the time of purchase of any relationship or other facts qualifying you for sales charge reductions or waivers. Some intermediaries impose different policies for sales charge waivers and reductions. These variations are described in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. Except as described with respect to the intermediaries specified in Appendix A, all Class A shares are subject to the terms stated below. In order to obtain waivers and discounts that are not available through your intermediary, you must purchase Fund shares directly from the Funds or through another intermediary.

You can find additional information regarding sales charges and their reductions, free of charge, at vcm.com/policies, by clicking on Victory Portfolios' Mutual Funds Pricing Policies.

You may reduce or eliminate the sales charge applicable to Class A shares in a number of ways:

◼

Breakpoint - Purchase a sufficient amount to reach a breakpoint (see Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares above);

◼

Letter of Intent - If you anticipate purchasing $50,000 or more of Class A shares of the Fund, including any purchase of other Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), within a 13-month period, you may qualify for a sales charge breakpoint as though the total quantity were invested in one lump sum. In order to qualify for the reduced sales charge, you must submit a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “Letter”) within 90 days of the start of the purchases. Each investment you make after signing the Letter will be entitled to the sales charge applicable to the total investment indicated in the Letter. You must start with a minimum initial investment of at least 5.00% of the total amount you intend to purchase. A portion of the shares purchased under the Letter will be held in escrow until the total investment has been completed. In the event you do not complete your commitment set forth in

the Letter in the time period specified, sufficient escrowed shares will be redeemed to pay any applicable front-end sales charges;

Right of Accumulation - You may add the value of any other Victory Funds of any share class that you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), to the amount of your next Class A investment to determine if your additional investment will qualify for a sales charge breakpoint. The value of the other Victory Funds of any share class you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) will be calculated by using the greater of the current value or the original investment amount. You may be eligible for reduced sales charges on future purchases of Class A shares of the Fund after you have reached a new breakpoint. To determine your reduced sales charge, you can add the value of your Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), (or those held by your spouse (including domestic partner) and your children under age 21), determined at the previous day’s NAV, to the amount of your new purchase, valued at the current offering price. To ensure that the reduced price will be received pursuant to the Fund’s Right of Accumulation, you or your Investment Professional must inform the Fund’s transfer agent that the Right applies each time shares are purchased and provide the transfer agent with sufficient information to permit confirmation of qualification;

◼

Combination Privilege - You may combine the value in accounts of multiple Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) and in accounts of household members of your immediate family (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21) to achieve a reduced sales charge on your added investment;

◼

Reinstatement Privilege - You may reinvest at NAV all or part of your redemption proceeds within 90 days of a redemption of Class A shares of a Fund;

◼

Waiver - The Victory Funds will completely waive the sales charge for Class A shares in the following cases:

◼

Purchases of $1,000,000 or more;

◼

Purchases by certain individuals associated with the Victory Funds or service providers (see “Eligibility of Individuals Associated with the Victory Funds and Fund Service Providers”);

◼

Purchases by registered broker-dealers, financial intermediaries or their agents or affiliates who have agreements with the Funds' distributor (“Distributor”), if the shares are purchased for their own account, purchased for retirement plans of their employees or sold to registered representatives or full-time employees (or their immediate families), provided that such purchase is for one of the foregoing types of accounts;

◼

Purchases for trust or other advisory accounts established with a financial institution and fee-based investment products or accounts;

◼

Reinvestment of proceeds from a liquidation distribution of Class A shares of a Victory Fund held in a deferred compensation plan, agency, trust, or custody account;

◼

Purchases by retirement plans, including Section 401 and 457 plans sponsored by a Section 501(c)(3) organization and certain non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements that operate in a similar manner to qualified plans. Investors nonetheless may be charged a fee if they effect transactions in Class A shares through a broker or agent;

◼

Purchases by participants in no transaction fee programs offered by certain broker-dealers (sometimes referred to as “supermarkets”);

◼

Purchases by certain financial intermediaries who offer shares to self-directed investment brokerage accounts that may or may not charge a transaction fee to its customers;

◼

Investors that have an investment account with the Adviser;

39

Choosing a Share Class

◼

Purchases by CMS Energy employees participating in a Victory prototype Roth IRA plan by way of payroll deduction from CMS Energy; and

◼

Individuals who reinvest the proceeds of redemptions from Class I, Class R6 or Class Y shares of a Victory Fund within 60 days of redemption.

You should inform the Fund or your Investment Professional at the time of purchase of the sales charge waiver category which you believe applies.

CDSC for Class A Shares

A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through the intermediaries specified in Appendix A.

CDSC for Class C Shares

You will pay a 1.00% CDSC on any Class C shares you sell within 12 months of purchase. The CDSC is based on the current value of the shares being sold or their NAV when purchased, whichever is less. There is no CDSC on shares you acquire by reinvesting your dividends or capital gains distributions. You may be eligible for reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. There is no CDSC imposed when you exchange your shares for Class C shares of another Victory Fund; however, your exchange is subject to the same CDSC schedule that applied to your original purchase.

An investor may, within 90 days of a redemption of Class C shares, reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds in the Class C shares of any Victory Fund at the NAV next computed after receipt by the transfer agent of the reinvestment order. Class C share proceeds reinvested do not result in a refund of any CDSC paid by the shareholder, but the reinvested shares will be treated as CDSC exempt upon reinvestment. The shareholder must ask the Distributor for such privilege at the time of reinvestment.

To keep your CDSC as low as possible, each time you sell shares we will first sell shares in your account that are not subject to a CDSC. If there are not enough of these to meet your sale, we will sell the shares in the order they were purchased.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares

To the extent that the shares redeemed:

◼

subject to the CDSC, if applicable, calculated from the original date of purchase until the applicable holding period expires. In determining whether the CDSC applies to each redemption, shares not subject to a CDSC are redeemed first;

a settlor of a living trust, of shares held in the account at the time of death or initial determination of post-purchase disability;

Information About Fees

Distribution and Service Plans

In accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Trust has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class A, Class C and Class R shares of the Funds.

Under the Class A Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets of Class A shares. Under the Class R Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.50% of its average daily net assets of Class R shares. The fee is paid for general distribution services, for selling Class A and Class R shares of the Fund and, as applicable, for providing personal services to shareholders of the Fund. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of Fund shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Under the Class C Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of its Class C shares. Of this amount, 0.75% of the Fund’s Class C shares average daily net assets will be paid for general distribution services and for selling Class C shares. The Fund will pay 0.25% of its Class C shares average daily net assets to compensate financial institutions that provide personal services to Class C shareholders of the Fund. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of the Fund’s Class C shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Because Rule 12b-1 fees are paid out of a Fund’s assets and on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

Other Payments to Financial Intermediaries

Except with respect to Class R6 shares, if you purchase Fund shares through an Investment Professional, a broker dealer, or other financial intermediary, the Fund may pay for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and/or similar administrative services. In addition, the Adviser (and its affiliates) may make substantial payments out of its own resources, including the profits from the advisory fees the Adviser receives from the Funds, to affiliated and unaffiliated dealers or other Investment Professionals and service providers for distribution, administrative and/or shareholder servicing activities. The Adviser also may reimburse the Distributor (or the Distributor's affiliates) for making these payments. Some of these distribution-related payments may be made to dealers or other Investment Professionals for marketing, promotional or related expenses; these payments are often referred to as “revenue sharing.” The Adviser (and its affiliates) also may pay fixed fees for the listing of a Fund on a broker-dealer’s or financial intermediary’s system. Such payments are not considered to be revenue sharing payments.

In some circumstances, these types of payments may create an incentive for a dealer or Investment Professional or its representatives to recommend or offer shares of the Victory Funds to its customers. You should ask your dealer or Investment Professional for more details about any such payments it receives.

43

Information About Fees

No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries from Fund assets, or from the resources of the Adviser or its affiliates on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares.

How to Buy Shares

Opening an Account

If you would like to open an account, you will first need to complete an Account Application.

You can obtain an Account Application by calling Victory Funds Customer Service at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863). You can also download an Account Application by visiting the Victory Funds' website, VictoryFunds.com, and clicking on the Victory Funds Account Application link.

P.O. Box 182593

You can also obtain an Account Application by contacting your Investment Professional. When you invest through an Investment Professional, the procedures for buying, selling, and exchanging shares and the account features and policies may differ. In addition to any limitations described in this Prospectus, an Investment Professional or other intermediary may also place other limits on your ability to use the services of a Fund. Sometimes an Investment Professional will charge you for its services. This fee will be in addition to, and unrelated to, the fees and expenses charged by the Funds.

Mutual funds must obtain and verify information that identifies investors opening new accounts. If the Funds are unable to collect the required information, you may not be able to open your account. Additional details about the Funds' Customer Identification Program are available in the section “Important Fund Policies.”

If you participate in a retirement plan that offers one of the Victory Funds as an option, please consult your employer for information on how to purchase shares of the Victory Funds through the plan, including any restrictions or limitations that may apply.

Paying for Your Initial Purchase

If you wish to make an investment directly into the Victory Funds, make your check payable to the “Victory Funds.” All checks must be drawn on U.S. banks. If your check is returned as uncollectible for any reason, you will be charged for any resulting fees and/or losses. The Fund does not accept cash, money orders, traveler’s checks, credit card convenience checks, or third party checks. Additionally, bank starter checks are not accepted for the shareholder’s initial investment into the Funds. All payments must be denominated in U.S. dollars.

Minimum Investments

If you would like to buy Class A or Class C shares, the minimum investment required to open an account is $2,500 ($1,000 for IRA accounts), with additional investments of at least $50. If you would like to buy Class I, Class R, Class R6 or Class Y shares, you must be an Eligible Investor, as discussed in the section Choosing a Share Class — Eligibility Requirements to Purchase. Eligible Investors may be subject to a minimum investment amount as detailed in that section.

For Class C shares, individual purchases of $1,000,000 and above will automatically be made in Class A shares.

If your account falls below the minimum investment amount, we may ask you to reestablish the minimum investment. If you do not do so within 60 days, we may close your account and send you the value of your account.

The minimum investment required to open an account may be waived or lowered for employees and immediate family members of the employees, of the Adviser, the Administrator, and their affiliates. In addition, the minimum investment required may be waived when a Fund is purchased through an Advisory Program, within qualified retirement plans or in other similar circumstances. Although the

45

How to Buy Shares

Funds may sometimes waive the minimum investment, when they do so, they always reserve the right to reject initial investments under the minimum at their discretion.

There is no minimum investment required to open an account or for additional investments in Victory Simple IRAs.

A Fund reserves the right to change the criteria for eligible investors and the investment minimums.

How to Exchange Shares  

There may be limits on the ability to exchange between certain Victory Funds. You can

obtain a list of Victory Funds available for exchange by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting

VictoryFunds.com

The shares of any class of a Fund may be exchanged for the shares of any other class offered by the Fund or the same class, or any other class of any Victory Fund, either through your Investment Professional or directly through the Fund, subject to the conditions described below:

◼

Exchanges are subject to any CDSC, minimum investment limitation or eligibility requirements described in the applicable Prospectus and SAI. You may be required to provide sufficient information to establish eligibility to exchange into a new share class.

◼

To exchange with a Victory Fund, the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into must be eligible for exchange with your Fund.

◼

Shares of the Victory Fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in your state of residence.

If you have questions about these, or any of the Funds' other exchange policies, please consult Victory Customer Service or your Investment Professional before requesting an exchange.

Before exchanging, you should read the Prospectus of the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into, which may be subject to different risks, fees and expenses.

Class C Share Conversion

Class C shares of the Fund will automatically convert to Class A shares in the month following the eight-year anniversary date of the purchase of the Class C shares. Your financial intermediary may have a conversion schedule that is shorter than eight years. Class C conversions will be effected at the relative NAV of each such class without the imposition of any sales charge, fee or other charge.

You may be able to voluntarily convert your Class C shares before the stated anniversary to a different share class of the same Fund that has a lower total annual operating expense ratio provided certain conditions are met. This voluntary conversion feature is intended for shares held through a financial intermediary offering a fee-based or wrap fee program that has an agreement with the Adviser or the Distributor specific for this purpose. Generally, Class C shares are not eligible for conversion until the applicable CDSC period has expired. Please contact your financial intermediary for additional information.

Processing Your Voluntary Exchange/Conversion

If your exchange or conversion request is received and accepted by the Funds, an Investment Professional or other intermediary by the close of trading as described in the section entitled, “Share Price,” then your request will be processed the same day. If received after the close of trading, your request will be processed on the next business day. Please contact your financial intermediary regarding the tax consequences of any exchange or conversion.

Exchanges will occur at the respective NAVs of the Funds' share classes involved in the exchange next calculated after receipt and acceptance of your exchange request in good order, plus any applicable sales charge described in the Prospectus. Share class conversions will be based on the respective NAV of each class as of the trade date of the conversion. Consequently, you may receive fewer shares or more shares than originally owned, depending on that day’s NAVs.

Requesting an Exchange

You can exchange shares of the Funds by telephone, by mail or via the Internet. You cannot exchange into an account with a different registration or tax identification number.

◼

By Telephone

48

How to Exchange Shares

Unless you indicate otherwise on the account application, Victory Customer Service will be authorized to accept exchange instructions received by telephone.

◼

By Mail

Send a letter of instruction signed by all registered owners or their legal representatives to the Victory Funds.

◼

Via the Internet

You may also exchange shares via the Internet at VictoryFunds.com if you are a registered user.

Other Exchange Rules You Should Know

The Funds may refuse any exchange purchase request if the Adviser determines that the request is associated with a market timing strategy. The Funds may terminate or modify the exchange privilege at any time upon 60 days’ notice to shareholders.

An exchange of Fund shares for shares of another Victory Fund constitutes a sale for tax purposes unless the exchange is made within an IRA or other tax-deferred account.

For information on how to exchange shares of a Fund that were purchased through your employer’s retirement plan, including any restrictions and charges that the plan may impose, please consult your employer.

How to Sell Shares  

There are a number of convenient ways to sell your shares. You can use the same mailing

addresses listed for purchases.

If your redemption request is received in good order by the close of trading on the NYSE, your redemption will be processed the same day. Your redemption will not be processed until the next business day if it is received after the close of trading on the NYSE. You cannot redeem your shares at www.VictoryFunds.com.

 

BY TELEPHONE

The easiest way to redeem shares is by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863). When you fill out your original application, be sure to check the box marked “Telephone Authorization.” Then when you are ready to sell, call and tell us which one of the following options you would like to use:

◼

Mail a check to the address of record;

◼

Wire funds to a previously designated domestic financial institution;

◼

Mail a check to a previously designated alternate address; or

◼

Electronically transfer your redemption via ACH to a previously designated domestic financial institution.

The transfer agent records all telephone calls for your protection and takes measures to verify the identity of the caller. If the transfer agent properly acts on telephone instructions and follows reasonable procedures to ensure against unauthorized transactions, none of the Trust, its servicing agents, the Adviser, or the transfer agent will be responsible for any losses. If the transfer agent does not follow these procedures, it may be liable to you for losses resulting from unauthorized instructions.

If there is an unusual amount of market activity and you cannot reach the transfer agent or your Investment Professional by telephone, consider placing your order by mail.

 

BY MAIL

Use the regular U.S. mail or overnight mail address to redeem shares. Send us a letter of instruction indicating your Fund account number, amount of redemption, and where to send the proceeds. A Medallion signature guarantee is required for the following redemption requests:

◼

Your account registration has changed within the last 15 business days;

◼

The check is not being mailed to the address on your account;

◼

The check is not being made payable to the owner of the account;

◼

The redemption proceeds are being transferred to another Victory Fund account with a different registration; or

◼

The check or wire is being sent to a different bank account than was previously designated.

You can get a Medallion signature guarantee from a financial institution — such as a commercial bank, broker dealer, credit union, clearing agency, or savings bank — that is a member of a Medallion signature guarantee program.  

BY WIRE

If you want to receive your proceeds by wire, you must establish a Fund account that will accommodate wire transactions. If you call before the close of trading on the NYSE, your funds will be wired on the next business day.  

BY ACH

Normally, your redemption will be processed on the same day, but will be processed on the next day if received after the close of trading on the NYSE. It will be transferred by ACH as long as the transfer is to a domestic bank.

How to Sell Shares

Systematic Withdrawal Plan

If you check this box on the Account Application or on the Account Maintenance Form, we will send monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payments to the person you designate. The minimum withdrawal is $25, and you must have a balance of $5,000 or more at the time you establish the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If the payment is to be sent to an account of yours, we will need a voided check to activate this feature. If the payment is to be made to an address different from your account address, we will need a Medallion signature guaranteed letter of instruction. You should be aware that each withdrawal may be a taxable transaction. Also, each withdrawal reduces your account balance, and eventually your account balance may be depleted. However, you cannot automatically close your account using the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If your balance falls below the initial purchase minimum, we may ask you to bring the account back to the minimum balance. If you decide not to increase your account to the minimum balance, your account may be closed and the proceeds mailed to you.

Additional Information About Redemptions

◼

Redemption proceeds from the sale of Fund shares purchased by a check or through ACH will be held until the purchase check or ACH has cleared, which will take up to 10 business days.

◼

We typically expect to send the proceeds from your share redemption within one business day after we execute your order, but we may take up to seven business days to send redemption proceeds, regardless of payment type. When you sell shares through your financial intermediary, you can ask the intermediary to tell you when you can expect to receive the proceeds of your redemption.

◼

A Fund may suspend your right to redeem your shares in the following circumstances:

◼

During non-routine closings of the NYSE;

◼

When the SEC determines either that trading on the NYSE is restricted or that an emergency prevents the sale or valuation of the Fund’s securities; or

◼

When the SEC orders a suspension to protect the Fund’s shareholders.

◼

A Fund typically uses cash and cash equivalents held in its portfolio or sells portfolio assets to meet redemption requests. In unusual circumstances or under stressed market conditions, the Fund may use other methods to raise cash to meet redemption requests. For example, the Fund may draw funds from a line of credit or borrow available cash held by other Victory Funds under an “interfund lending program” in reliance on an exemptive order from the SEC.

◼

A Fund will pay redemptions by any one shareholder during any 90-day period in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1.00% of the Fund’s net assets. The Funds reserve the right to pay the remaining portion “in kind,” that is, in portfolio securities rather than cash. Securities received pursuant to an in-kind redemption are subject to market risk until sold and may be subject to brokerage and other fees.

◼

If you choose to have your redemption proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the redemption check to you or the check remains outstanding for more than six months, the Funds reserve the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed redemption checks.

Distributions and Taxes  

Buying a dividend. You should check the Funds' distribution schedule before you invest.

If you buy shares of a Fund shortly before it makes a distribution,

some of your investment may come back to you as a taxable distribution.

As a shareholder, you are entitled to your share of net income and capital gains on a Fund's investments. Each Fund passes its earnings along to investors in the form of dividends. Dividends paid by a Fund represent the net income from dividends and interest earned on investments after expenses. Each Fund will distribute short-term gains, as necessary, and if the Fund makes a long-term capital gain distribution, it is normally paid once a year.

Ordinarily, each Fund declares and pays dividends annually. However, a Fund may not always pay a dividend or distribution for a given period. Each class of shares declares and pays dividends separately.

Distributions can be received in one of the following ways. Please check with your Investment Professional if you are unsure of which option is right for you.  

Your choice of distribution should be set up on the original Account Application.

If you would like to change the option you selected, please call 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863).

Reinvestment Option

You can have distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of your Fund. If you do not indicate another choice on your Account Application, you will be assigned this option automatically.

Cash Option

If you elect to receive your distributions by check, and the distribution amount is $25 or less, the amount will automatically be reinvested in the same Fund. Otherwise, a check will be mailed to you no later than seven days after the dividend payment date. If you choose to have your distribution proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the distribution check to you or the check remains outstanding for at least six months, the distribution option on your account will default to the reinvestment option as described above. Each Fund reserves the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution checks.

Income Earned Option

You can automatically reinvest your dividends in additional Fund shares and have your capital gains paid in cash, or reinvest capital gains and have your dividends paid in cash.

Directed Distributions Option

In most cases, you can automatically reinvest distributions in shares of another Victory Fund. If you reinvest your distributions in a different Victory Fund, you will pay a sales charge on the amount of reinvested distributions.

Directed Bank Account Option

In most cases, you can automatically transfer distributions to your bank checking or savings account. Under normal circumstances, the transfer agent will transfer your distributions within seven days of the dividend payment date. The bank account must have a registration identical to that of your Fund account.

Important Information About Taxes  

The tax information in this Prospectus is provided as general information. You should

consult your own tax adviser about the tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

Each Fund expects to pay no federal income tax on the earnings and capital gains it distributes to shareholders.

◼

Qualified dividend income received from a Fund by noncorporate shareholders will be taxed at long-term capital gain rates to the extent attributable to qualified dividend income received by the Fund, subject to certain holding period requirements. Nonqualified dividends, dividends received by corporate shareholders and dividends from a Fund’s short-term capital gains are taxable as ordinary income. Dividends from a Fund’s long-term capital gains are taxable as long-term capital gains.

◼

You will pay tax on dividends from a Fund whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund.

◼

Dividends from a Fund that are attributable to interest on certain U.S. government obligations, if any, may be exempt from certain state and local income taxes. The extent to which ordinary dividends are attributable to these U.S. government obligations will be provided on the tax statements you receive from a Fund.

◼

An exchange of a Fund’s shares for shares of another Victory Fund will be treated as a sale. When you sell or exchange shares of a Fund, you generally will recognize any gain or loss.

◼

An exchange of one class of a Fund’s shares for shares of another class of the same Fund generally constitutes a nontaxable exchange.

◼

Distributions from a Fund and gains from the disposition of your shares may also be subject to state and local income tax.

◼

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (which includes dividends and gain recognized on a disposition of shares) of certain U.S. individuals, estates, and trusts.

◼

Certain dividends paid to you in January will be taxable as if they had been paid to you the previous December.

◼

Tax statements will be mailed from each Fund by mid-February showing the amounts and tax status of distributions made to you in the prior calendar year.

◼

Because your tax treatment depends on your purchase price and tax position, you should keep your regular account statements for use in determining your tax.

◼

A Fund is generally required by law to provide you and the Internal Revenue Service with certain cost basis information related to the sale or redemption of any of your shares in the Fund acquired on or after January 1, 2012, (including distributions that are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund).

◼

A Fund may be required to withhold tax from dividends and redemption proceeds if you fail to give your correct social security or taxpayer identification number, fail to make required certifications, or the Fund is notified by the Internal Revenue Service that backup withholding is required.

◼

If you are a nonresident alien individual, foreign trust or estate, foreign corporation or foreign partnership, a Fund’s ordinary income dividends may be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

Under the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,” unless certain foreign entities comply with certain IRS requirements that generally require them to report information regarding U.S. persons investing in, or holding accounts with, such entities, a 30% U.S. withholding tax may

53

Distributions and Taxes

apply to dividends paid by a Fund to such entities. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

You should review the more detailed discussion of federal income tax considerations in the SAI and consult your tax adviser regarding the federal, state, local, or foreign tax consequences resulting from your investment in the Fund.

◼

The Funds may provide estimated capital gain distribution information through the website at VictoryFunds.com.

Important Fund Policies

Customer Identification Program

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations.

As a result, the Victory Funds must obtain the following information for each person who opens a new account:

◼

Name;

◼

Date of birth (for individuals);

◼

Residential or business street address (although post office boxes are still permitted for mailing); and

◼

Social security number, taxpayer identification number, or other identifying number.

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities. Federal law prohibits the Victory Funds and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Victory Funds may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified. The Victory Funds may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares will be redeemed at the NAV next calculated after the account is closed.

Account Maintenance Information

For the following non-financial transactions, the Victory Funds require proof that your signature authorizing a transaction is authentic. This verification can be provided in all cases by either a Signature Validation Program (SVP) stamp or a Medallion signature guarantee (MSG). In some instances a Notary Public stamp is an acceptable alternative. As with the MSG, a SVP stamp can also be obtained from a financial institution that is a member of the SVP program.

Market Timing

The Victory Funds discourage frequent purchases and redemptions of Fund shares (market timing). Market timing allows investors to take advantage of market inefficiencies, sometimes to the disadvantage of other shareholders. Market timing increases Fund expenses to all shareholders by increasing portfolio turnover. In addition, market timing could potentially dilute share value for all other shareholders by requiring the Fund to hold more cash than it normally would.

55

Important Fund Policies

The Funds' Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures with respect to market timing. In order to prevent or minimize market timing, the Funds will:

◼

Employ “fair value” pricing, as described in this Prospectus under Share Price, to minimize the discrepancies between a security’s market quotation and its perceived market value, which often gives rise to market timing activity; and

◼

Monitor for suspected market timing based on “short-term transaction” activity, that is, a purchase or redemption of a Fund and, as applicable, a subsequent redemption or purchase of the same Fund, or an exchange of all or part of that same Fund.

In monitoring for market timing activity, we consider, among other things, the frequency of your trades and whether you acquired your Fund shares directly through the transfer agent or whether you combined your trades with a group of shareholders in an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary.

Frequent trading by a shareholder is generally a characteristic of market timing. Therefore, any account in which Fund shares are acquired directly through the transfer agent, or where the Fund can adequately identify the shareholder, with a history of three short-term transactions within 90 days or less is suspected of market timing and the shareholder’s trading privileges (other than redemption of Fund shares) will be suspended.

We may make exceptions to the “short-term transaction” policy for certain types of transactions if, in the opinion of the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, the transactions do not represent short-term or excessive trading or are not abusive or harmful to the Funds, such as, but not limited to, systematic transactions, required minimum retirement distributions, transactions initiated by the Funds or administrator and transactions by certain qualified funds-of-funds.

If you acquired shares through an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary (such as investment advisers, broker-dealers, third-party administrators or insurance companies), and market timing is suspected, different purchase and exchange limitations may apply. We may rely upon a financial intermediary’s policy to deter short-term or excessive trading (i) if we believe that the financial intermediary’s policy is reasonably designed to detect and deter transactions that are not in the best interests of the Funds, or (ii) if we receive an undertaking from the financial intermediary to enforce short-term or excessive trading policies on behalf of the Funds that provide a substantially similar level of protection for the Funds against such transactions. If you hold your Fund shares through a financial intermediary, you are advised to consult the intermediary to determine what purchase and exchange limitations apply to your account.

We reserve the right to reject or cancel a purchase or exchange order for any reason without prior notice. We will deny your request to purchase or exchange your shares if we believe that the transaction is part of a market timing strategy.

The Funds' market timing policies and procedures may be modified or terminated at any time under the oversight of the Board of Trustees.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure

A description of each Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Funds' portfolio securities is available in the Funds' SAI, which is available upon request and on the Funds' website at VictoryFunds.com.

Important Fund Policies

Performance

The Victory Funds may advertise the performance of a Fund by comparing it to other mutual funds with similar objectives and policies. Performance information also may appear in various publications. Any fees charged by Investment Professionals may not be reflected in these performance calculations.

Advertising information may include the average annual total return of the Funds calculated on a compounded basis for specified periods of time. Total return information will be calculated according to rules established by the SEC. Such information may include performance rankings and similar information from independent organizations and publications.

Shareholder Communications

In order to eliminate duplicate mailings to an address at which two or more shareholders with the same last name reside, the Victory Funds may send only one copy of any shareholder reports, proxy statements, prospectuses and their supplements, unless you have instructed us to the contrary. You may request that the Victory Funds send these documents to each shareholder individually by calling the Victory Funds at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863), and they will be delivered promptly.

While this Prospectus and the SAI of the Trust describe pertinent information about the Trust and the Funds, neither this Prospectus nor the SAI represents a contract between the Trust or the Funds and any shareholder.

57

Financial Highlights

The following financial highlights tables reflect historical information about shares of the Funds and are intended to help you understand each Fund's financial performance for the past five years, or, if shorter, the period of its operations. Certain information shows the results of an investment in one share of the Fund. To the extent a Fund invests in other funds, the Total Annual Operating Expenses included in a Fund's Fees and Expenses Table may not correlate to the ratio of expenses to average net assets in the financial highlights below. The total returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in each Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).

The information presented  for the fiscal years ended on or after June 30, 2019, has been audited by Cohen & Company, Ltd., the Funds' independent registered public accounting firm, whose report, along with the Funds' financial statements, are included in the Funds' annual report. The information for all prior periods has been audited by a different independent registered public accounting firm. The Funds' annual and semi-annual reports are available by calling the Victory Funds at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) and at www.VictoryFunds.com.

Edward D. Jones & Co (”Edward Jones“)

Clients of Edward Jones (also referred to as “shareholders”) purchasing fund shares on the Edward Jones commission and fee-based platforms are eligible only for the following sales charge discounts (also referred to as “breakpoints”) and waivers, which can differ from discounts and waivers described elsewhere in the Fund’s Prospectus or statement of additional information (”SAI“) or through another

79

broker-dealer. In all instances, it is the shareholder’s responsibility to inform Edward Jones at the time of purchase of any relationship, holdings of the Victory Funds, or other facts qualifying the purchaser for discounts or waivers. Edward Jones can ask for documentation of such circumstance. Shareholders should contact Edward Jones if they have questions regarding their eligibility for these discounts and waivers.

Breakpoints - Breakpoint pricing, otherwise known as volume pricing, at dollar thresholds as described in the prospectus.

◼

Rights of Accumulation (“ROA”)

◼

The applicable sales charge on a purchase of Class A shares is determined by taking into account all share classes (except certain money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) of the Victory Funds held by the shareholder or in an account grouped by Edward Jones with other accounts for the purpose of providing certain pricing considerations (“pricing groups”). If grouping assets as a shareholder, this includes all share classes held on the Edward Jones platform and/or held on another platform. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the ROA calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Money market funds are included only if such shares were sold with a sales charge at the time of purchase or acquired in exchange for shares purchased with a sales charge.

◼

ROA is determined by calculating the higher of cost minus redemptions or market value (current shares x NAV).

◼

The employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan may elect to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping as opposed to including all share classes at a shareholder or pricing group level.

◼

Letter of Intent (“LOI”)

◼

Through a LOI, shareholders can receive the sales charge and breakpoint discounts for purchases shareholders intend to make over a 13-month period from the date Edward Jones receives the LOI. The LOI is determined by calculating the higher of cost or market value of qualifying holdings at LOI initiation in combination with the value that the shareholder intends to buy over a 13-month period to calculate the front-end sales charge and any breakpoint discounts. Each purchase the shareholder makes during that 13-month period will receive the sales charge and breakpoint discount that applies to the total amount. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the LOI calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Purchases made before the LOI is received by Edward Jones are not adjusted under the LOI and will not reduce the sales charge previously paid. Sales charges will be adjusted if LOI is not met.

◼

If the employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan has elected to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping, LOIs will also be at the plan-level and may only be established by the employer.

Sales Charge Waivers - Sales charges are waived for the following shareholders and in the following situations:

◼

Associates of Edward Jones and its affiliates and their family members who are in the same pricing group (as determined by Edward Jones under its policies and procedures) as the associate. This waiver will continue for the remainder of the associate’s life if the associate retires from Edward Jones in good-standing and remains in good standing pursuant to Edward Jones' policies and procedures.

◼

◼

Shares exchanged into Class A shares from another share class so long as the exchange is into the same fund and was initiated at the discretion of Edward Jones.

◼

Exchanges from Class C shares to Class A shares of the same fund, generally, in the 84th month following the anniversary of the purchase date or earlier at the discretion of Edward Jones.

Integrity Discovery Fund Summary

Investment Objective

The Victory Integrity Discovery Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide capital appreciation.

Fund Fees and Expenses

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below.

Shareholder Fees
(paid directly from your investment)  

	Member Class
Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of offering price)	None
Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load) (as a percentage of the lower of purchase or sale price)	None

Annual Fund Operating Expenses
(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)  

Management Fees	1.00%
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees	0.00%
Other Expenses	4.05%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	5.05%
Fee Waiver/Expense Reimbursement	(3.55)%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement1	1.50%

1

Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 1.50% of the Fund’s Member Class shares through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Member Class	$ 153	$ 1,197	$ 2,241	$4,846

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not

Integrity Discovery Fund Summary

reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 41% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of micro-capitalization companies. Micro-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase lower than the largest company in the bottom 75% (based on index weightings) of the Russell 2000® Index, which as of September 30, 2021 included companies with market capitalizations below $4.3 billion. The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.

When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.

The Fund focuses on undiscovered, micro-capitalization companies in its attempt to provide investors with potentially higher returns than a fund that invests primarily in larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization companies are generally not as well known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies, the Adviser believes these inefficiencies in the marketplace may provide higher returns.

Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the financials sector.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Micro-Capitalization Stock Risk – Micro-capitalization companies tend to be less seasoned and may lose market share or profits to a greater extent than larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be more difficult to purchase and sell. Micro-capitalization companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

2

Integrity Discovery Fund Summary

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

◼

Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Integrity Discovery Fund Summary

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund.The information presented is for that of the Fund’s Class Y shares (which are not offered by this prospectus). The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the average annual total returns of the Fund’s Class Y shares over the same period to a broad measure of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

While no information is shown for the Member Class shares (because they do not yet have a full calendar year of performance), annual returns for Member Class shares would have been substantially similar to those shown here. Member Class shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.

Michael P. Wayton	Portfolio Manager	Since 2018

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares 

Investment Minimums	Member Class
Minimum Initial Investment	$3,000
Minimum Subsequent Investments	$50

You may redeem your shares on any day the Fund is open for business. Redemption requests may be made by telephone (with prior appropriate approval) or by mail.

When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value (“NAV”) after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

Investment Objective

The Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide capital appreciation.

Fund Fees and Expenses

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below.

Shareholder Fees
(paid directly from your investment)  

	Member Class
Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of offering price)	None
Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load) (as a percentage of the lower of purchase or sale price)	None

Annual Fund Operating Expenses
(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)  

Management Fees	0.75%

Other Expenses	7.92%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	8.67%
Fee Waiver/Expense Reimbursement	(7.82)%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses After Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement1	0.85%

1

Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 0.85% of the Fund’s Member Class shares through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Member Class	$ 87	$ 1,827	$ 3,442	$6,988

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not

6

Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 67% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.

Mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.

From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the

7

Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

◼

Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 0.95% of the Fund’s Member Class shares through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Example:

The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date.

11

Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 61% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small- to mid-capitalization companies. Small- to mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2500® Index ($40.0 million to $30.5 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.

When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.

The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly

Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary

available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

◼

Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.

As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Additional Fund Information  

Victory Capital Management Inc., which we refer to as the “Adviser”

throughout the Prospectus, manages each Fund.

The Victory Integrity Discovery Fund, Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund and Victory Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund (the “Funds”) are each managed by the Adviser, who also manages other funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Together, these funds are referred to in this Prospectus as the “Victory Funds” or, more simply, the “Funds.”

The following section describes additional information about the principal investment strategy the Funds will use under normal market conditions to pursue their investment objective, as well as any secondary strategies the Funds may use, and the related risks. This Prospectus does not attempt to describe all of the various investment techniques and types of investments that the Adviser may use in managing the Funds. The Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) includes more information about the Funds, their investments, and the related risks. Under adverse, unstable or abnormal market conditions, a Fund may be unable to pursue or achieve its investment objective and, for temporary purposes, may invest some or all of its assets in a variety of instruments or assets, including high-quality fixed-income securities, cash and cash equivalents. For cash management purposes, each Fund may hold all or a portion of its assets in cash, short-term money market instruments or shares of other investment companies. These positions may reduce the benefit from any upswing in the market, cause a Fund to fail to meet its investment objective and increase a Fund's expenses.

When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment. The Adviser finds these value-oriented investments by, among other things: (1) rigorously analyzing the company’s financial characteristics and assessing the quality of the company’s management; (2) considering comparative price-to-book, price-to-sales and price-to-cash flow ratios; and (3) analyzing cash flows to identify stocks with the most attractive potential returns.

The Adviser regularly reviews each Fund’s investments and will sell securities when the Adviser believes the securities are no longer attractive because (1) a deterioration in rank of the security in accordance with the Adviser’s process, (2) of price appreciation, (3) of a change in the fundamental outlook of the company or (4) other investments available are considered to be more attractive.

Each Fund’s investment objective and policy to invest at least 80% of its assets in the type of securities suggested by the Fund's name is non-fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval upon at least 60 days’ written notice to shareholders. For purposes of a Fund’s 80% investment policy, “assets” means the Fund’s net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, but exclusive of any collateral held from securities lending.

Investments

The following describes the types of securities each Fund may purchase under normal market conditions to achieve its principal investment strategy. The Funds will not necessarily buy all of the securities listed below.

U.S. Equity Securities

Can include common stock, preferred stock, and securities that are convertible or exchangeable into common stock of U.S. corporations.

Foreign Securities

Can include common stock and convertible preferred stock of non-U.S. corporations. Also may include American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), which are receipts issued by a bank or trust company and evidence ownership of underlying securities issued by foreign corporations, and ETFs that invest in foreign corporations.

Additional Fund Strategies. The Adviser may use other types of investment strategies in pursuing each Fund's overall investment objective. The following describes the types of securities that the Adviser may purchase or investment techniques the Adviser may employ that are not considered to be a part of the Funds' principal investment strategies. Additional securities and techniques are described in the Funds' SAI.

Derivatives

From time to time, the Fund may enter into futures contracts and write covered call options. Derivative instruments are financial contracts whose value is based on an underlying security or asset, a currency exchange rate, an interest rate or a market index. Many types of instruments representing a wide range of potential risks and rewards are derivatives, including futures contracts, options on futures contracts, options, and forward currency exchange contracts. The Fund may, but is not required to, use derivatives for hedging (attempting to reduce risk by offsetting one investment position with another), for cash management (attempting to remain fully invested while maintaining liquidity) or to gain exposure to an investment in a manner other than investing in the asset directly. Hedging may relate to a specific investment, a group of investments, or a Fund’s portfolio as a whole. The Fund will not use derivatives for speculative purposes.

Initial Public Offerings (IPOs)

The Funds may at times have the opportunity to invest in securities offered in initial public offerings (“IPOs”). If a Fund’s portfolio manager believes that a particular IPO is very likely to increase in value immediately after the initial offering, it is possible (although it will not necessarily be the case) that the Fund will invest in the IPO, even if the security is one in which the Fund might not typically otherwise invest. It is possible, however, that a Fund will lose money on an investment in an IPO, even in such a case.

Investment Companies

The Fund may invest in securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, if those companies invest in securities consistent with the Fund's investment objective and policies. ETFs are investment companies the shares of which are bought and sold on a securities exchange.

Securities Lending

To enhance the return on its portfolio, a Fund may lend portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and financial institutions to realize additional income under guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees. Each loan will be secured continuously by collateral in the form of cash, securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities.

Equity Securities Risk — The market prices of equity securities, which may include common stocks and other stock-related securities such as preferred stocks, convertible securities and rights and warrants, may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. A Fund may continue to accept new subscriptions and to make additional investments in equity securities even under general market conditions that a Fund’s investment team views as unfavorable for equity securities. The value of a security may decline for reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage, and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services or due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. Unlike debt securities, which have preference to a company’s assets in case of liquidation, common stock, are entitled to the residual value after the company meets its other obligations. Unlike common stock, preferred stock generally pays a fixed dividend from a company’s earnings and may have a preference over common stock on the distribution of a company’s assets in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation. Preferred stockholders’ liquidation rights are subordinate to the company’s debt holders and creditors. If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may be less attractive and the price of preferred stocks may decline. Convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible securities of similar quality. Convertible securities may gain or lose value due to changes in the issuer’s operating results, financial condition, credit rating and changes in interest rates and other general economic, industry and market conditions. Rights and warrants can provide a greater potential for profit or loss than an equivalent investment in the underlying security. Prices of warrants and rights do not necessarily move in tandem with the prices of the underlying securities and therefore are highly volatile and speculative investments.

Foreign Securities Risk

◼

Foreign Investments Risk — Foreign investments involve certain special risks. For example, compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies. Foreign issuers may not be subject to the uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices prevalent in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments. Investments in depositary receipts (such as ADRs and GDRs) may also involve additional risks associated with the non-uniform terms that apply to depositary receipt programs, credit exposure to the depository bank and to the sponsors and other parties with whom the depository bank establishes the programs, currency risk and the risk of an illiquid market for depositary receipts. Certain of these risks may also apply to some extent to U.S. investments that are denominated in foreign currencies and to investments in U.S. companies that have significant foreign operations.

18

Risk Factors

◼

Political Risk — Foreign securities markets may be more volatile than their counterparts in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Foreign settlement procedures may also involve additional risks, and foreign issuers can be impacted by changes to trade policies and trade disputes. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments.

◼

Liquidity Risk — Securities that trade less frequently or with lower trade volume can be more difficult or more costly to buy or sell than more liquid or active investments. Liquidity risk is a factor of the trading volume of a particular investment, as well as the size and liquidity of the entire local market. On the whole, foreign exchanges are smaller and less liquid than U.S. exchanges. See also Liquidity Risk.

◼

Currency Risk — Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment. Adverse changes in exchange rates, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may erode or reverse any gains produced by investments denominated in foreign currencies and may widen any losses.

◼

Legal Risk — Legal remedies for investors in foreign countries may be more limited than the legal remedies available in the U.S.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, a Fund's performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Large Shareholder Risk — A Fund, like all investment companies, pools the investments of many investors. Actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. For example, significant levels of new investments in a Fund by shareholders may cause the Fund to have more cash than would otherwise be the case, which might have a positive or negative impact on Fund performance. Similarly, redemption activity might cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities, which may increase transaction costs and might generate a capital gain or loss, or cause it to borrow funds on a short-term basis to cover redemptions, which would cause the Fund to incur costs that, in effect, would be borne by all shareholders and not just the redeeming shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity also may affect the per share amount of a Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an Affiliated Fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in a Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.

Liquidity Risk — Liquidity risk exists when particular investments cannot be disposed of quickly in the normal course of business. The ability of the Fund to dispose of such investments at advantageous prices may be greatly limited, and the Fund may have to continue to hold such investments during periods when the Adviser would otherwise have sold them (in order, for example, to meet redemption requests or to take advantage of other investment opportunities). Market values for illiquid investments may not be readily available, and there can be no assurance that any fair value assigned to an illiquid investment at any time will accurately reflect the price the Fund might receive upon the sale of that investment. Adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer, including rising interest rates, may adversely affect the liquidity of the Fund’s investments and the Fund may be forced to sell large amounts of investments more quickly than it normally would in the ordinary course of business. In such cases the sale proceeds received by a Fund may be substantially less than if the Fund had been able to sell the

19

Risk Factors

investments in more orderly transactions, and the sale price may be substantially lower than the price previously used by the Fund to value the investment for purposes of determining the Fund’s net asset value. Some investments held by a Fund may be restricted as to resale, and there is often no ready market for such investments. In addition, a Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price.

Management Risk — The investment process used by the investment team may produce incorrect judgments about the value of a particular asset or the team may implement its investment strategy in a way that may not produce the desired results.

Sector Focus Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments. Additionally, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile when the Fund’s investments are focused in a particular sector. Since benchmark sector weights influence the Fund’s sector exposure, the Fund may tend to be more heavily weighted in companies in the financials sector. The values of companies in the financials sector are particularly vulnerable to economic downturns and changes in government regulation and interest rates.

◼

Financials Sector Risk — A Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of a Fund’s investments and could make a Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial services companies are subject to extensive governmental regulation, which may limit both the amounts and types of loans and other financial commitments they can make, the interest rates and fees they can charge, the scope of their activities, the prices they can charge and the amount of capital they must maintain. Profitability is largely dependent on the availability and cost of capital funds and can fluctuate significantly when interest rates change or due to increased competition. In addition, deterioration of the credit markets generally may cause an adverse impact in a broad range of markets, including U.S. and international credit and interbank money markets generally, thereby affecting a wide range of financial institutions and markets. Credit losses resulting from financial difficulties of borrowers and financial losses associated with investment activities can negatively impact the sector. Insurance companies may be subject to severe price competition. Adverse economic, business or political developments could adversely affect financial institutions engaged in mortgage finance or other lending or investing activities directly or indirectly connected to the value of real estate.

Smaller-Company Stock Risk — Small- or mid-sized companies often have more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies and, therefore, may be more susceptible to market downturns or changing economic conditions. In addition, such companies may have been recently organized and have little or no track record of success. Also, the Adviser may not have had an opportunity to evaluate such newer companies’ performance in adverse or fluctuating market conditions. The securities of smaller-sized companies may trade less frequently and in smaller volume than more widely held securities. Prices of small- or mid-sized companies tend to be more volatile than those of larger companies and small- or mid-sized issuers may be subject to greater degrees of changes in their earnings and prospects. Since smaller company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be often more difficult to purchase and sell.

Stock Market Risk — Stock market risk refers to the fact that stock (equity securities) prices typically fluctuate more than the values of other types of securities, typically in response to changes in the particular company’s financial condition and factors affecting the market in general. Over time, the stock market tends to move in cycles, with periods when stock prices rise, and periods when stock prices decline. A slower-growth or recessionary economic environment could have an adverse effect

20

Risk Factors

on stock prices. Consequently, a broad-based market drop may also cause a stock’s price to fall. Portfolio securities may also decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment, or due to factors affecting particular industries represented in the securities markets, such as competitive conditions. Changes in the financial condition of a single issuer can impact a market as a whole, and adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities. In addition, the markets may not favor a particular kind of security, including equity securities. Values of securities may fall due to factors affecting a particular issuer, industry or the securities market as a whole.

Market turmoil may be reflected in perceptions of economic uncertainty, price volatility in the equity and debt markets, and fluctuating trading liquidity. In response, governments may adopt a variety of fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs, and lower interest rates. These policies may not be successful and any unexpected or quick reversal of these policies could increase volatility in the equity and debt markets. Market conditions and economic risks could have a significant effect on domestic and international economies and could add significantly to the risks of increased volatility and decreased liquidity for a Fund's portfolio.

◼

Geopolitical/Natural Disaster Risk — Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. Epidemics and/or pandemics, such as the coronavirus (or COVID-19), may result in, among other things, closing borders, disruptions to healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, cancellations, disruptions to supply chains and consumer activity, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact may last for extended periods.

◼

Information Technology and Operational Risk — Markets and market participants are increasingly reliant upon both publicly available and proprietary information data systems. Data imprecision, software or other technology malfunctions, programming inaccuracies, unauthorized use or access, and similar circumstances may impair the performance of these systems and may have an adverse impact upon a single issuer, a group of issuers, or the market at large. The information technology and other operational systems upon which a Fund’s service providers rely may be subject to cyber attack or other technological disruptions, and could otherwise disrupt the ability of these service providers to perform essential tasks for a Fund. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on either specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in a Fund being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or accurately price its investments.

Additional Risk Factors. The Adviser may use several types of investment strategies in pursuing each Fund‘s overall investment objective. The following risks are those that the Adviser does not consider to be principal risks of the Funds. Additional risks are included in the Funds' SAI.

Derivatives Risk — Derivatives, such as forward currency contracts, futures contracts and options on futures contracts, are subject to the risk that small price movements can result in substantial gains or losses. Derivatives also entail exposure to counterparty risk, the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the relevant securities, assets or indices. The Fund “covers” its exposure to certain derivative contracts by

21

Risk Factors

segregating or designating liquid assets on its records sufficient to satisfy current payment obligations, which may expose the Fund to the market through both the underlying assets subject to the contract and the assets used as cover. The use of derivatives may cause the Fund to incur losses greater than those that would have occurred had derivatives not been used.

IPO Risk — Investments in IPOs may result in increased transaction costs and expenses and the realization of short-term capital gains and distributions. In addition, in the period immediately following an IPO, investments may be subject to more extreme price volatility than that of other equity investments. A Fund may lose all or part of its investment if the companies making their IPOs fail and their product lines fail to achieve an adequate level of market recognition or acceptance. IPOs may not be available to a Fund at all times, and a Fund may not always invest in IPOs offered to it. Investments in IPOs may have a substantial beneficial effect on a Fund’s investment performance. A Fund's investment return earned during a period of substantial investment in IPOs may not be sustained during other periods when the Fund makes more limited, or no, investments in IPOs.

Investment Company Risk — The Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective may be directly related to the ability of other investment companies (including ETFs) held by the Fund to meet their investment objectives. In addition, shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the underlying investment companies. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.

Securities Lending Risk — The risk in lending portfolio securities, as with other extensions of credit, consists of the possibility of loss to a Fund due to (1) the inability of the borrower to return the securities, (2) a delay in receiving additional collateral to adequately cover any fluctuations in the value of securities on loan, (3) a delay in recovery of the securities, or (4) the loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. These events could trigger adverse tax consequences for a Fund. In addition, a Fund is responsible for any loss that might result from its investment of the borrower’s collateral. In determining whether to lend securities, the Adviser or a Fund’s securities lending agent will consider relevant facts and circumstances, including the creditworthiness of the borrower.

25

Share Price  

The daily NAV is useful to you as a shareholder because the NAV,

multiplied by the number of Fund shares you own, gives you the value of your investment.

Each Victory Fund calculates its share price, called its net asset value (“NAV”), each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”), which is normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event of an emergency or other disruption in trading on the NYSE, a Fund’s share price will be determined based upon the close of the NYSE. You may buy, exchange, and sell your shares on any business day at a price that is based on the NAV that is next calculated after you place your order. A business day is a day on which the NYSE is open.

To the extent a Fund’s investments include securities that are primarily traded in foreign markets, the value of those securities may change on days when shareholders are unable to purchase and redeem a Fund’s shares, such as on weekends or other days when the Fund does not price its shares.

Each Fund prices its investments based on market value when market quotations are readily available. When these quotations are not readily available, a Fund will price its investments at fair value according to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. A Fund will fair value a security when:

◼

Trading in the security has been halted;

◼

The market quotation for the security is clearly erroneous due to a clerical error;

◼

The security’s liquidity decreases such that, in the Adviser's opinion, the market quotation has become stale; or

◼

An event occurs after the close of the trading market (but before the Fund’s NAV is calculated) that, in the Adviser’s opinion, materially affects the value of the security.

The use of fair value pricing may minimize arbitrage opportunities that attempt to exploit the differences between a security's market quotation and its fair value. The use of fair value pricing may not, however, always reflect a security’s actual market value in light of subsequent relevant information, and the security’s opening price on the next trading day may be different from the fair value price assigned to the security.

Each Victory Fund calculates the NAV of each share class by adding up the total value of the investments and other assets of that class, subtracting its liabilities, and then dividing that figure by the number of outstanding shares of the class.  

NAV=	Total Assets - Liabilities
	Number of Shares Outstanding

You may be able to find a Fund's NAV each day in The Wall Street Journal and other newspapers. Newspapers do not normally publish fund information until a fund reaches a specific number of shareholders or level of assets. You may also find a Fund's NAV by calling 800-235-8396 or by visiting the Funds' website at VictoryFunds.com.

In addition, the Adviser (and its affiliates) may make substantial payments out of its own resources, including the profits from the advisory fees the Adviser receives from the Funds, to affiliated and unaffiliated dealers or other Investment Professionals and service providers for distribution, administrative and/or shareholder servicing activities. The Adviser also may reimburse the Distributor (or the Distributor’s affiliates) for making these payments. Some of these distribution-related payments may be made to dealers or other Investment Professionals for marketing, promotional or related expenses; these payments are often referred to as “revenue sharing.”

In some circumstances, these types of payments may create an incentive for a dealer or Investment Professional or its representatives to recommend or offer shares of the Victory Funds to its customers. You should ask your dealer or Investment Professional for more details about any such payments it receives.

How to Buy Shares

Opening an Account

If you would like to open an account, you will first need to complete an Account Application.

You can obtain an Account Application by calling Victory Funds Customer Service at 800-235-8396. You can also download an Account Application by visiting the Victory Funds' website, VictoryFunds.com, and clicking on the Victory Funds Account Application link. Send the completed Account Application, along with a check made payable to the Victory Funds, at the following address:

Victory Funds
P.O. Box 182903
Columbus, OH 43218-2903

You can also obtain an Account Application by contacting your Investment Professional. When you invest through an Investment Professional, the procedures for buying, selling, and exchanging shares and the account features and policies may differ. In addition to any limitations described in this Prospectus, an Investment Professional or other intermediary may also place other limits on your ability to use the services of a Fund. Sometimes an Investment Professional will charge you for its services. This fee will be in addition to, and unrelated to, the fees and expenses charged by the Funds.

Mutual funds must obtain and verify information that identifies investors opening new accounts. If the Funds are unable to collect the required information, you may not be able to open your account. Additional details about the Funds‘ Customer Identification Program are available in the section “Important Fund Policies.”

If you participate in a retirement plan that offers one of the Victory Funds as an option, please consult your employer for information on how to purchase shares of the Victory Funds through the plan, including any restrictions or limitations that may apply.

Paying for Your Initial Purchase

If you wish to make an investment directly into the Victory Funds, make your check payable to the “Victory Funds.” All checks must be drawn on U.S. banks. If your check is returned as uncollectible for any reason, you will be charged for any resulting fees and/or losses. The Fund does not accept cash, money orders, traveler’s checks, credit card convenience checks, or third party checks. Additionally, bank starter checks are not accepted for the shareholder’s initial investment into the Funds. All payments must be denominated in U.S. dollars.

Minimum Investments

If you would like to buy Member Class shares, you must first be an Eligible Investor, as discussed in the section Choosing a Share Class — Eligibility Requirements to Purchase. There is a $3,000 minimum investment amount required for Member Class shares beyond those set forth in the Eligibility Requirements to Purchase.

If your account falls below the minimum investment amount, we may ask you to reestablish the minimum investment. If you do not do so within 60 days, we may close your account and send you the value of your account.

The minimum investment required to open an account may be waived or lowered for employees and immediate family members of the employees, of the Adviser, the Administrator, and their affiliates. In addition, the minimum investment required may be waived when a Fund is purchased through an Advisory Program, within qualified retirement plans or in other similar circumstances. Although the Funds may sometimes waive the minimum investment, when they do so, they always reserve the right to reject initial investments under the minimum at their discretion.

29

How to Buy Shares

There is no minimum investment required to open an account or for additional investments in Victory Simple IRAs.

A Fund reserves the right to change the criteria for eligible investors and the investment minimums.

Purchasing Additional Shares

Once you have an existing account, you can make additional investments at any time in any amount (subject to any minimums) in the following ways:

◼

By Mail

To ensure that your additional investment is properly credited to your account, use the Investment Stub attached to your confirmation statement and send it with your check to the address indicated.

◼

By Telephone

If you have an existing account that has been set up to receive electronic transfers, you can buy additional shares by calling Victory Funds Customer Service at 800-235-8396 between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (Eastern Time), Monday through Friday.

◼

By Exchange

You may purchase shares of a Fund using the proceeds from the simultaneous redemption of shares of another Victory Fund if it is eligible for an exchange with your Fund. You may initiate an exchange online (if you are a registered user of VictoryFunds.com), by telephone, or by mail. See the section “Exchanging Shares.”

◼

Via the Internet

If you are a registered user, you may request a purchase of shares through our website at VictoryFunds.com. Your account must be set up for Automated Clearing House (“ACH”) payment in order to execute online purchases.

◼

Your account must be set up for ACH payment in order to execute purchases online or by telephone. It takes about 15 days to set up an ACH account and only domestic member banks may be used. After your account is set up, your purchase amount can be transferred by ACH. Currently, the Funds do not charge a fee for ACH transfers but they reserve the right to charge for this service in the future. Your originating bank may charge a fee for ACH transfers.

◼

By Wire

You may buy Fund shares by bank wire transfer of same day funds. Please call Victory Funds Customer Service at 800-235-8396 between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. (Eastern Time), Monday through Friday for wiring instructions. Any commercial bank can transfer same-day funds by wire.

Although the transfer agent does not currently charge you for receiving same-day funds, it reserves the right to charge for this service in the future. Your bank may charge you for wiring same-day funds. You cannot buy shares for tax-qualified retirement plans by wire transfer.

Other Purchase Rules You Should Know

The Funds reserve the right to refuse a purchase order for any reason, including if they believe that doing so would be in the best interest of a Fund or its shareholders. The Funds also reserve the right, without notice, to increase or decrease the minimum amount required to open, convert shares to, or maintain a Fund account, or to add to an existing Fund account. 

Keep these addresses handy for purchases, exchanges, or redemptions.

Statements and Reports

You will receive a periodic statement reflecting any transactions that affect the balance or registration of Fund shares in your account. You will receive a confirmation after any purchase, exchange, or redemption. If your account has been set up by an Investment Professional, Fund activity will be detailed in that account’s statements. Share certificates are not issued.

Retirement Plans

You can use the Funds as part of your retirement portfolio. Your Investment Professional can set up your new account under one of several tax-deferred retirement plans. Please contact your Investment Professional or the Fund for details regarding an IRA or other retirement plan that works best for your financial situation.

31

How to Exchange Shares  

There may be limits on the ability to exchange between certain Victory Funds. You can

obtain a list of Victory Funds available for exchange by calling 800-235-8396 or by visiting

VictoryFunds.com

The shares of any class of a Fund may be exchanged for the shares of any other class offered by the Fund or the same class, or any other class of any Victory Fund, either through your Investment Professional or directly through the Fund, subject to the conditions described below:

◼

Exchanges are subject to any CDSC, minimum investment limitation or eligibility requirements described in the applicable Prospectus and SAI. You may be required to provide sufficient information to establish eligibility to exchange into a new share class.

◼

To exchange with a Victory Fund, the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into must be eligible for exchange with your Fund.

◼

Shares of the Victory Fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in your state of residence.

If you have questions about these, or any of the Funds‘ other exchange policies, please consult Victory Customer Service or your Investment Professional before requesting an exchange.

Before exchanging, you should read the Prospectus of the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into, which may be subject to different risks, fees and expenses.

Processing Your Voluntary Exchange/Conversion

If your exchange or conversion request is received and accepted by the Funds, an Investment Professional or other intermediary by the close of trading as described in the section entitled, “Share Price,” then your request will be processed the same day. If received after the close of trading, your request will be processed on the next business day. Please contact your financial intermediary regarding the tax consequences of any exchange or conversion.

Exchanges will occur at the respective NAVs of the Funds' share classes involved in the exchange next calculated after receipt and acceptance of your exchange request in good order, plus any applicable sales charge described in the Prospectus. Share class conversions will be based on the respective NAV of each class as of the trade date of the conversion. Consequently, you may receive fewer shares or more shares than originally owned, depending on that day’s NAVs.

Requesting an Exchange

You can exchange shares of the Funds by telephone, by mail or via the Internet. You cannot exchange into an account with a different registration or tax identification number.

◼

By Telephone

Unless you indicate otherwise on the account application, Victory Customer Service will be authorized to accept exchange instructions received by telephone.

◼

By Mail

Send a letter of instruction signed by all registered owners or their legal representatives to the Victory Funds.

◼

Via the Internet

You may also exchange shares via the Internet at VictoryFunds.com if you are a registered user.

Other Exchange Rules You Should Know

The Funds may refuse any exchange purchase request if the Adviser determines that the request is associated with a market timing strategy. The Funds may terminate or modify the exchange privilege at any time upon 60 days’ notice to shareholders.

32

How to Exchange Shares

An exchange of Fund shares for shares of another Victory Fund constitutes a sale for tax purposes unless the exchange is made within an IRA or other tax-deferred account.

For information on how to exchange shares of a Fund that were purchased through your employer’s retirement plan, including any restrictions and charges that the plan may impose, please consult your employer.

33

How to Sell Shares  

There are a number of convenient ways to sell your shares. You can use the same mailing

addresses listed for purchases.

If your redemption request is received in good order by the close of trading on the NYSE, your redemption will be processed the same day. Your redemption will not be processed until the next business day if it is received after the close of trading on the NYSE. You cannot redeem your shares at www.VictoryFunds.com.

 

BY TELEPHONE

The easiest way to redeem shares is by calling 800-235-8396. When you fill out your original application, be sure to check the box marked “Telephone Authorization.” Then when you are ready to sell, call and tell us which one of the following options you would like to use:

◼

Mail a check to the address of record;

◼

Wire funds to a previously designated domestic financial institution;

◼

Mail a check to a previously designated alternate address; or

◼

Electronically transfer your redemption via ACH to a previously designated domestic financial institution.

The transfer agent records all telephone calls for your protection and takes measures to verify the identity of the caller. If the transfer agent properly acts on telephone instructions and follows reasonable procedures to ensure against unauthorized transactions, none of the Trust, its servicing agents, the Adviser, or the transfer agent will be responsible for any losses. If the transfer agent does not follow these procedures, it may be liable to you for losses resulting from unauthorized instructions.

If there is an unusual amount of market activity and you cannot reach the transfer agent or your Investment Professional by telephone, consider placing your order by mail.

 

BY MAIL

Use the regular U.S. mail or overnight mail address to redeem shares. Send us a letter of instruction indicating your Fund account number, amount of redemption, and where to send the proceeds. A Medallion signature guarantee is required for the following redemption requests:

◼

Your account registration has changed within the last 15 business days;

◼

The check is not being mailed to the address on your account;

◼

The check is not being made payable to the owner of the account;

◼

The redemption proceeds are being transferred to another Victory Fund account with a different registration; or

◼

The check or wire is being sent to a different bank account than was previously designated.

You can get a Medallion signature guarantee from a financial institution — such as a commercial bank, broker dealer, credit union, clearing agency, or savings bank — that is a member of a Medallion signature guarantee program. 

BY WIRE

If you want to receive your proceeds by wire, you must establish a Fund account that will accommodate wire transactions. If you call before the close of trading on the NYSE, your funds will be wired on the next business day. 

BY ACH

Normally, your redemption will be processed on the same day, but will be processed on the next day if received after the close of trading on the NYSE. It will be transferred by ACH as long as the transfer is to a domestic bank.

34

How to Sell Shares

Systematic Withdrawal Plan

If you own shares in a single investment account (accounts in different Victory Funds offering Member Class shares cannot be aggregated for this purpose), you may request that enough shares to produce a fixed amount of money be liquidated from the account monthly, quarterly, or annually. The amount of each withdrawal must be at least $50. Using the electronic funds transfer service, you may choose to have withdrawals electronically deposited at your bank or other financial institution. You also may elect to have such withdrawals invested in another Victory Fund offering Member Class shares. You should be aware that each withdrawal may be a taxable transaction. Also, each withdrawal reduces your account balance, and eventually your account balance may be depleted. However, you cannot automatically close your account using the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If your balance falls below the initial purchase minimum, we may ask you to bring the account back to the minimum balance. If you decide not to increase your account to the minimum balance, your account may be closed and the proceeds mailed to you.

Additional Information About Redemptions

◼

Redemption proceeds from the sale of Fund shares purchased by a check or through ACH will be held until the purchase check or ACH has cleared, which will take up to 10 business days.

◼

We typically expect to send the proceeds from your share redemption within one business day after we execute your order, but we may take up to seven business days to send redemption proceeds, regardless of payment type. When you sell shares through your financial intermediary, you can ask the intermediary to tell you when you can expect to receive the proceeds of your redemption.

◼

A Fund may suspend your right to redeem your shares in the following circumstances:

◼

During non-routine closings of the NYSE;

◼

When the SEC determines either that trading on the NYSE is restricted or that an emergency prevents the sale or valuation of the Fund’s securities; or

◼

When the SEC orders a suspension to protect the Fund’s shareholders.

◼

A Fund typically uses cash and cash equivalents held in its portfolio or sells portfolio assets to meet redemption requests. In unusual circumstances or under stressed market conditions, the Fund may use other methods to raise cash to meet redemption requests. For example, the Fund may draw funds from a line of credit or borrow available cash held by other Victory Funds under an “interfund lending program” in reliance on an exemptive order from the SEC.

◼

A Fund will pay redemptions by any one shareholder during any 90-day period in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1.00% of the Fund’s net assets. The Funds reserve the right to pay the remaining portion “in kind,” that is, in portfolio securities rather than cash. Securities received pursuant to an in-kind redemption are subject to market risk until sold and may be subject to brokerage and other fees.

◼

If you choose to have your redemption proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the redemption check to you or the check remains outstanding for more than six months, the Funds reserve the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed redemption checks.

35

Distributions and Taxes  

Buying a dividend. You should check the Funds‘ distribution schedule before you invest.

If you buy shares of a Fund shortly before it makes a distribution,

some of your investment may come back to you as a taxable distribution.

As a shareholder, you are entitled to your share of net income and capital gains on a Fund's investments. Each Fund passes its earnings along to investors in the form of dividends. Dividends paid by a Fund represent the net income from dividends and interest earned on investments after expenses. Each Fund will distribute short-term gains, as necessary, and if the Fund makes a long-term capital gain distribution, it is normally paid once a year.

Ordinarily, each Fund declares and pays dividends annually. However, a Fund may not always pay a dividend or distribution for a given period. Each class of shares declares and pays dividends separately.

Distributions can be received in one of the following ways. Please check with your Investment Professional if you are unsure of which option is right for you.  

Your choice of distribution should be set up on the original Account Application.

If you would like to change the option you selected, please call 800-235-8396.

Reinvestment Option

You can have distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of your Fund. If you do not indicate another choice on your Account Application, you will be assigned this option automatically.

Cash Option

If you elect to receive your distributions by check, and the distribution amount is $25 or less, the amount will automatically be reinvested in the same Fund. Otherwise, a check will be mailed to you no later than seven days after the dividend payment date. If you choose to have your distribution proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the distribution check to you or the check remains outstanding for at least six months, the distribution option on your account will default to the reinvestment option as described above. Each Fund reserves the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution checks.

Income Earned Option

You can automatically reinvest your dividends in additional Fund shares and have your capital gains paid in cash, or reinvest capital gains and have your dividends paid in cash.

Directed Distributions Option

In most cases, you can automatically reinvest distributions in shares of another Victory Fund. If you reinvest your distributions in a different Victory Fund, you will pay a sales charge on the amount of reinvested distributions.

Directed Bank Account Option

In most cases, you can automatically transfer distributions to your bank checking or savings account. Under normal circumstances, the transfer agent will transfer your distributions within seven days of the dividend payment date. The bank account must have a registration identical to that of your Fund account.

36

Distributions and Taxes

Important Information About Taxes  

The tax information in this Prospectus is provided as general information. You should

consult your own tax adviser about the tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

Each Fund expects to pay no federal income tax on the earnings and capital gains it distributes to shareholders.

◼

Qualified dividend income received from a Fund by noncorporate shareholders will be taxed at long-term capital gain rates to the extent attributable to qualified dividend income received by the Fund, subject to certain holding period requirements. Nonqualified dividends, dividends received by corporate shareholders and dividends from a Fund’s short-term capital gains are taxable as ordinary income. Dividends from a Fund’s long-term capital gains are taxable as long-term capital gains.

◼

You will pay tax on dividends from a Fund whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund.

◼

Dividends from a Fund that are attributable to interest on certain U.S. government obligations, if any, may be exempt from certain state and local income taxes. The extent to which ordinary dividends are attributable to these U.S. government obligations will be provided on the tax statements you receive from a Fund.

◼

An exchange of a Fund’s shares for shares of another Victory Fund will be treated as a sale. When you sell or exchange shares of a Fund, you generally will recognize any gain or loss.

◼

An exchange of one class of a Fund’s shares for shares of another class of the same Fund generally constitutes a nontaxable exchange.

◼

Distributions from a Fund and gains from the disposition of your shares may also be subject to state and local income tax.

◼

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (which includes dividends and gain recognized on a disposition of shares) of certain U.S. individuals, estates, and trusts.

◼

Certain dividends paid to you in January will be taxable as if they had been paid to you the previous December.

◼

Tax statements will be mailed from each Fund by mid-February showing the amounts and tax status of distributions made to you in the prior calendar year.

◼

Because your tax treatment depends on your purchase price and tax position, you should keep your regular account statements for use in determining your tax.

◼

A Fund is generally required by law to provide you and the Internal Revenue Service with certain cost basis information related to the sale or redemption of any of your shares in the Fund acquired on or after January 1, 2012, (including distributions that are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund).

◼

A Fund may be required to withhold tax from dividends and redemption proceeds if you fail to give your correct social security or taxpayer identification number, fail to make required certifications, or the Fund is notified by the Internal Revenue Service that backup withholding is required.

◼

If you are a nonresident alien individual, foreign trust or estate, foreign corporation or foreign partnership, a Fund’s ordinary income dividends may be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

Under the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,” unless certain foreign entities comply with certain IRS requirements that generally require them to report information regarding U.S. persons investing in, or holding accounts with, such entities, a 30% U.S. withholding tax may

37

Distributions and Taxes

apply to dividends paid by a Fund to such entities. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

You should review the more detailed discussion of federal income tax considerations in the SAI and consult your tax adviser regarding the federal, state, local, or foreign tax consequences resulting from your investment in the Fund.

◼

The Funds may provide estimated capital gain distribution information through the website at VictoryFunds.com.

38

Important Fund Policies

Customer Identification Program

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations.

As a result, the Victory Funds must obtain the following information for each person who opens a new account:

◼

Name;

◼

Date of birth (for individuals);

◼

Residential or business street address (although post office boxes are still permitted for mailing); and

◼

Social security number, taxpayer identification number, or other identifying number.

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities. Federal law prohibits the Victory Funds and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Victory Funds may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified. The Victory Funds may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares will be redeemed at the NAV next calculated after the account is closed.

Account Maintenance Information

For the following non-financial transactions, the Victory Funds require proof that your signature authorizing a transaction is authentic. This verification can be provided in all cases by either a Signature Validation Program (SVP) stamp or a Medallion signature guarantee (MSG). In some instances a Notary Public stamp is an acceptable alternative. As with the MSG, a SVP stamp can also be obtained from a financial institution that is a member of the SVP program.

Market Timing

The Victory Funds discourage frequent purchases and redemptions of Fund shares (market timing). Market timing allows investors to take advantage of market inefficiencies, sometimes to the disadvantage of other shareholders. Market timing increases Fund expenses to all shareholders by increasing portfolio turnover. In addition, market timing could potentially dilute share value for all other shareholders by requiring the Fund to hold more cash than it normally would.

39

Important Fund Policies

The Funds' Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures with respect to market timing. In order to prevent or minimize market timing, the Funds will:

◼

Employ “fair value” pricing, as described in this Prospectus under Share Price, to minimize the discrepancies between a security’s market quotation and its perceived market value, which often gives rise to market timing activity; and

◼

Monitor for suspected market timing based on “short-term transaction” activity, that is, a purchase or redemption of a Fund and, as applicable, a subsequent redemption or purchase of the same Fund, or an exchange of all or part of that same Fund.

In monitoring for market timing activity, we consider, among other things, the frequency of your trades and whether you acquired your Fund shares directly through the transfer agent or whether you combined your trades with a group of shareholders in an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary.

Frequent trading by a shareholder is generally a characteristic of market timing. Therefore, any account in which Fund shares are acquired directly through the transfer agent, or where the Fund can adequately identify the shareholder, with a history of three short-term transactions within 90 days or less is suspected of market timing and the shareholder’s trading privileges (other than redemption of Fund shares) will be suspended.

We may make exceptions to the “short-term transaction” policy for certain types of transactions if, in the opinion of the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, the transactions do not represent short-term or excessive trading or are not abusive or harmful to the Funds, such as, but not limited to, systematic transactions, required minimum retirement distributions, transactions initiated by the Funds or administrator and transactions by certain qualified funds-of-funds.

If you acquired shares through an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary (such as investment advisers, broker-dealers, third-party administrators or insurance companies), and market timing is suspected, different purchase and exchange limitations may apply. We may rely upon a financial intermediary’s policy to deter short-term or excessive trading (i) if we believe that the financial intermediary’s policy is reasonably designed to detect and deter transactions that are not in the best interests of the Funds, or (ii) if we receive an undertaking from the financial intermediary to enforce short-term or excessive trading policies on behalf of the Funds that provide a substantially similar level of protection for the Funds against such transactions. If you hold your Fund shares through a financial intermediary, you are advised to consult the intermediary to determine what purchase and exchange limitations apply to your account.

We reserve the right to reject or cancel a purchase or exchange order for any reason without prior notice. We will deny your request to purchase or exchange your shares if we believe that the transaction is part of a market timing strategy.

The Funds' market timing policies and procedures may be modified or terminated at any time under the oversight of the Board of Trustees.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure

A description of each Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Funds' portfolio securities is available in the Funds' SAI, which is available upon request and on the Funds' website at VictoryFunds.com.

Important Fund Policies

Performance

The Victory Funds may advertise the performance of a Fund by comparing it to other mutual funds with similar objectives and policies. Performance information also may appear in various publications. Any fees charged by Investment Professionals may not be reflected in these performance calculations.

Advertising information may include the average annual total return of the Funds calculated on a compounded basis for specified periods of time. Total return information will be calculated according to rules established by the SEC. Such information may include performance rankings and similar information from independent organizations and publications.

Shareholder Communications

In order to eliminate duplicate mailings to an address at which two or more shareholders with the same last name reside, the Victory Funds may send only one copy of any shareholder reports, proxy statements, prospectuses and their supplements, unless you have instructed us to the contrary. You may request that the Victory Funds send these documents to each shareholder individually by calling the Victory Funds at 800-235-8396, and they will be delivered promptly.

While this Prospectus and the SAI of the Trust describe pertinent information about the Trust and the Funds, neither this Prospectus nor the SAI represents a contract between the Trust or the Funds and any shareholder.

Financial Highlights

The following financial highlights tables reflect historical information about shares of the Funds and are intended to help you understand each Fund's financial performance for the past five years, or, if shorter, the period of its operations. Certain information shows the results of an investment in one share of the Fund. To the extent a Fund invests in other funds, the Total Annual Operating Expenses included in a Fund's Fees and Expenses Table may not correlate to the ratio of expenses to average net assets in the financial highlights below. The total returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in each Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).

The information presented has been audited by Cohen & Company, Ltd., the Funds‘ independent registered public accounting firm, whose report, along with the Funds‘ financial statements, are included in the Funds‘ annual report. The Funds‘ annual and semi-annual reports are available by calling the Victory Funds at 800-235-8396 and at www.VictoryFunds.com.

Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 1.32%, 2.12% and 1.57% of the Fund’s Class A, Class C and Class R shares, respectively, through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement

may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund Summary

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 698	$ 958	$ 1,237	$ 2,031
Class C	$ 310	$ 649	$ 1,114	$ 2,400
Class R	$161	$524	$912	$1,999
Class R6	$90	$281	$488	$1,084
Class Y	$101	$315	$547	$1,213

The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class C	$210	$649	$1,114	$2,400

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 103% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund's objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.

Mid-capitalization companies means those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the S&P MidCap 400® Index ($1.3 billion to $17.8 billion as of September 30, 2021) or within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in an index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.

The Fund’s investment style, which focuses on both growth prospects and valuation, is known as GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price). This blended process seeks to perform better than either a pure growth or pure value approach over a complete market cycle.

Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund's assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary

Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund Summary

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the information technology sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

◼

Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk

Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund Summary

may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

The performance figures for Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares of the Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund's performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the

expenses of the Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund.

For Class A and Class C shares a $1,000 minimum initial purchase amount and a $50 minimum subsequent purchase amount apply for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), gift/transfer to minor accounts, and purchases through automatic investment plans.

You may redeem your shares on any day the Fund is open for business. Redemption requests may be made by telephone (with prior appropriate approval) or by mail.

When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value (“NAV”) after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services for investments in all classes except Class R6. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 705	$ 978	$ 1,272	$ 2,105
Class C	$ 319	$ 709	$ 1,226	$ 2,644
Class Y	$101	$315	$547	$1,213

The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class C	$219	$709	$1,226	$2,644

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 70% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by identifying secular growth trends and investing in equity securities of companies the Adviser believes will benefit from these trends. The Fund invests in companies with market capitalization of $1 billion and above.

In selecting individual securities for the Fund, the Adviser employs a bottom-up analysis, which involves a thorough review of a company’s products and services, competitive positioning, balance sheet and financial stability. In addition, in selecting securities for the Fund, the Adviser attempts to identify and evaluate underlying growth drivers for each company and to arrive at a projected fair value for the company’s equity securities.

As a result of the Fund’s focus on secular growth trends, a significant portion of the Fund’s assets may be invested in one or more sectors, including the information technology sector, industries and types of companies that the Adviser believes have significant growth opportunities and exhibit attractive long-term growth characteristics.

Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary

Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

Munder Multi-Cap Fund Summary

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- and mid-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

Large-Capitalization Stock Risk — The securities of large-capitalization companies may underperform the securities of smaller-capitalization companies or the market as a whole. The growth rate of larger, more established companies may lag those of smaller companies, especially during periods of economic expansion.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the information technology sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

◼

Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

9

Munder Multi-Cap Fund Summary

Portfolio Turnover Risk — Higher portfolio turnover ratios resulting from additional purchases and sales of portfolio securities will generally result in higher transaction costs and Fund expenses and can lead to distribution of additional short-term capital gains to investors, which are taxed as ordinary income.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

The performance figures for Class A, C and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C and Y shares of the Munder Growth Opportunities Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund that was managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the

expenses of the Munder Growth Opportunities Fund.

Management of the Fund

Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. The portfolio managers jointly and primarily responsible for day-to-day management of the Fund are members of the Adviser’s Munder Capital Management (“Munder”) investment franchise.

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares 

Investment Minimums	Class A	Class C	Class Y
Minimum Initial Investment	$2,500	$2,500	$1,000,000
Minimum Subsequent Investments	$50	$50	None

For Class A and Class C shares a $1,000 minimum initial purchase amount and a $50 minimum subsequent purchase amount apply for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), gift/transfer to minor accounts, and purchases through automatic investment plans.

You may redeem your shares on any day the Fund is open for business. Redemption requests may be made by telephone (with prior appropriate approval) or by mail.

When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value (“NAV”) after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

2

Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 1.40%, 1.15% and 1.25% of the Fund’s Class A, Class I and Class Y shares, respectively, through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement

may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Munder Small Cap Growth Fund Summary

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 709	$ 1,129	$ 1,574	$ 2,805
Class I	$ 117	$ 380	$ 664	$ 1,471
Class Y	$ 127	$ 523	$ 945	$2,120

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 28% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues long-term capital appreciation in the Fund by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small capitalization companies. Small capitalization companies means those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2000® Growth Index ($40.0 million to $17.0 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in an index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.

The Fund’s investment style, which focuses on both growth prospects and valuation, is known as GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price). This blended process seeks to perform better than either a pure growth or pure value approach over a complete market cycle.

Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the healthcare sector.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural

14

Munder Small Cap Growth Fund Summary

disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Small-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the healthcare sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.

◼

Healthcare — The profitability of companies in the healthcare sector may be affected by government regulations and government healthcare programs, increases or decreases in the cost of medical products and services, an increased emphasis on outpatient services, demand for medical products and services and product liability claims, among other factors.

◼

Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions,

15

Munder Small Cap Growth Fund Summary

or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Additional Fund Information  

Victory Capital Management Inc., which we refer to as the “Adviser”

throughout the Prospectus, manages each Fund.

The  Victory Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund, Victory Munder Multi-Cap Fund and Victory Munder Small Cap Growth Fund (the “Funds”) are each managed by the Adviser, who also manages other funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Together, these funds are referred to in this Prospectus as the “Victory Funds” or, more simply, the “Funds.”

The following section describes additional information about the principal investment strategy the Funds will use under normal market conditions to pursue their investment objective, as well as any secondary strategies the Funds may use, and the related risks. This Prospectus does not attempt to describe all of the various investment techniques and types of investments that the Adviser may use in managing the Funds. The Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) includes more information about the Funds, their investments, and the related risks. Under adverse, unstable or abnormal market conditions, a Fund may be unable to pursue or achieve its investment objective and, for temporary purposes, may invest some or all of its assets in a variety of instruments or assets, including high-quality fixed-income securities, cash and cash equivalents. For cash management purposes, each Fund may hold all or a portion of its assets in cash, short-term money market instruments or shares of other investment companies. These positions may reduce the benefit from any upswing in the market, cause a Fund to fail to meet its investment objective and increase a Fund's expenses.

Multi-Cap Core Growth Fund

The Fund’s investment style, which focuses on both growth prospects and valuation, is known as GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price). This blended process seeks to perform better than either a pure growth or pure value approach over a complete market cycle.

The Adviser chooses the Fund’s investments by reviewing the earnings growth of all publicly traded mid-capitalization companies over the past three years and selecting from those companies primarily based on: above-average, consistent earnings growth; financial stability; relative valuation; strength of industry position and management team; and price changes compared to the Russell Midcap® Index.

The Adviser regularly reviews the Fund’s investments and will sell a security when the Adviser believes the security is no longer attractive due to (1) a deterioration in rank of the security in accordance with the Adviser’s process, (2) price appreciation, (3) a change in the fundamental outlook of the company or (4) other available investments are considered to be more attractive.

Multi-Cap Fund

In selecting individual securities for the Fund, the Adviser employs a bottom-up analysis, which involves a thorough review of a company’s products and services, competitive positioning, balance sheet and financial stability. In addition, in selecting securities for the Fund, the Adviser attempts to identify and evaluate underlying growth drivers for each company to arrive at a projected fair value for the company’s equity securities.

The Adviser regularly reviews the Fund’s investments and will sell a security when the Adviser believes the security is no longer attractive due to (1) a deterioration in rank of the security in accordance with the Adviser’s process, (2) price appreciation, (3) a change in the fundamental outlook of the company or (4) other available investments are considered to be more attractive. As a result of its investment strategy, the Fund may experience annual portfolio turnover in excess of 100%.

Each Fund’s investment objective and policy to invest at least 80% of its assets in the type of securities suggested by the Fund's name is non-fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval upon at least 60 days’ written notice to shareholders. For purposes of a Fund’s 80% investment policy, “assets” means the Fund’s net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, but exclusive of any collateral held from securities lending.

Investments

The following describes the types of securities each Fund may purchase under normal market conditions to achieve its principal investment strategy. The Funds will not necessarily buy all of the securities listed below.

U.S. Equity Securities

Can include common stock, preferred stock, and securities that are convertible or exchangeable into common stock of U.S. corporations.

Foreign Securities

Can include common stock and convertible preferred stock of non-U.S. corporations. Also may include American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), which are receipts issued by a bank or trust company and evidence ownership of underlying securities issued by foreign corporations, and ETFs that invest in foreign corporations.

Additional Fund Strategies. The Adviser may use other types of investment strategies in pursuing each Fund's overall investment objective. The following describes the types of securities that the Adviser may purchase or investment techniques the Adviser may employ that are not considered to be a part of the Funds' principal investment strategies. Additional securities and techniques are described in the Funds' SAI.

Derivatives

Derivative instruments are financial contracts whose value is based on an underlying security or asset, a currency exchange rate, an interest rate or a market index. Many types of instruments representing a wide range of potential risks and rewards are derivatives, including credit default swap contracts, swaps, futures contracts (both short and long positions), options on futures contracts, options, and forward currency exchange contracts. A Fund may use derivatives for hedging (attempting to reduce risk by offsetting one investment position with another), for cash management (attempting to remain fully invested while maintaining liquidity), for managing certain risks (such as yield curve exposure, interest rate risk or credit risk), to generate income, to gain exposure to an investment in a manner other than investing in the asset directly or for any other permissible purpose. Hedging may relate to a specific investment, a group of investments, or a Fund’s portfolio as a whole. Currently, some swaps may be negotiated bilaterally and others may be subject to mandatory clearing and exchange trading requirements. These requirements may decrease counterparty exposure and increase liquidity, but will not make swap transactions risk free.

Emerging Markets

A part of a Fund’s investments in foreign securities may be in companies from emerging market countries, which are developing countries in the early stages of adopting capitalism. Emerging market countries include, without limitation, portions of Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East/Africa, such as China, India, Malaysia, Brazil, Mexico, Poland, Russia and South Africa.

Initial Public Offerings (IPOs)

The Funds may at times have the opportunity to invest in securities offered in initial public offerings (“IPOs”). If a Fund’s portfolio manager believes that a particular IPO is very likely to increase in value immediately after the initial offering, it is possible (although it will not necessarily be the case) that the Fund will invest in the IPO, even if the security is one in which the Fund might not typically otherwise invest. It is possible, however, that a Fund will lose money on an investment in an IPO, even in such a case.

21

Investments

Investment Companies

A Fund may invest in securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, if those companies invest in securities consistent with the Fund's investment objective and policies. ETFs are investment companies the shares of which are bought and sold on a securities exchange.

Securities Lending

To enhance the return on its portfolio, a Fund may lend portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and financial institutions to realize additional income under guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees. Each loan will be secured continuously by collateral in the form of cash, securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities.

Equity Securities Risk — The market prices of equity securities, which may include common stocks and other stock-related securities such as preferred stocks, convertible securities and rights and warrants, may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. A Fund may continue to accept new subscriptions and to make additional investments in equity securities even under general market conditions that a Fund’s investment team views as unfavorable for equity securities. The value of a security may decline for reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage, and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services or due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. Unlike debt securities, which have preference to a company’s assets in case of liquidation, common stock, are entitled to the residual value after the company meets its other obligations. Unlike common stock, preferred stock generally pays a fixed dividend from a company’s earnings and may have a preference over common stock on the distribution of a company’s assets in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation. Preferred stockholders’ liquidation rights are subordinate to the company’s debt holders and creditors. If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may be less attractive and the price of preferred stocks may decline. Convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible securities of similar quality. Convertible securities may gain or lose value due to changes in the issuer’s operating results, financial condition, credit rating and changes in interest rates and other general economic, industry and market conditions. Rights and warrants can provide a greater potential for profit or loss than an equivalent investment in the underlying security. Prices of warrants and rights do not necessarily move in tandem with the prices of the underlying securities and therefore are highly volatile and speculative investments.

Foreign Securities Risk

◼

Foreign Investments Risk — Foreign investments involve certain special risks. For example, compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies. Foreign issuers may not be subject to the uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices prevalent in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments. Investments in depositary receipts (such as ADRs and GDRs) may also involve additional risks associated with the non-uniform terms that apply to depositary receipt programs, credit exposure to the

23

Risk Factors

depository bank and to the sponsors and other parties with whom the depository bank establishes the programs, currency risk and the risk of an illiquid market for depositary receipts. Certain of these risks may also apply to some extent to U.S. investments that are denominated in foreign currencies and to investments in U.S. companies that have significant foreign operations.

◼

Political Risk — Foreign securities markets may be more volatile than their counterparts in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Foreign settlement procedures may also involve additional risks, and foreign issuers can be impacted by changes to trade policies and trade disputes. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments.

◼

Liquidity Risk — Securities that trade less frequently or with lower trade volume can be more difficult or more costly to buy or sell than more liquid or active investments. Liquidity risk is a factor of the trading volume of a particular investment, as well as the size and liquidity of the entire local market. On the whole, foreign exchanges are smaller and less liquid than U.S. exchanges. See also Liquidity Risk.

◼

Currency Risk — Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment. Adverse changes in exchange rates, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may erode or reverse any gains produced by investments denominated in foreign currencies and may widen any losses.

◼

Legal Risk — Legal remedies for investors in foreign countries may be more limited than the legal remedies available in the U.S.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, a Fund's performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Large-Capitalization Stock Risk — Large-capitalization companies tend to compete in mature product markets and do not typically experience the level of sustained growth of smaller companies and companies competing in less mature product markets. Large-capitalization companies may be unable to respond as quickly as smaller companies to competitive challenges or changes in business, product, financial, or other market conditions. For these and other reasons, a Fund that invests in large-capitalization companies may underperform other stock funds (such as funds that focus on the stocks of small- and medium-capitalization companies) when stocks of large-capitalization companies are out of favor.

Large Shareholder Risk — A Fund, like all investment companies, pools the investments of many investors. Actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. For example, significant levels of new investments in a Fund by shareholders may cause the Fund to have more cash than would otherwise be the case, which might have a positive or negative impact on Fund performance. Similarly, redemption activity might cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities, which may increase transaction costs and might generate a capital gain or loss, or cause it to borrow funds on a short-term basis to cover redemptions, which would cause the Fund to incur costs that, in effect, would be borne by all shareholders and not just the redeeming shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity also may affect the per share amount of a Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an Affiliated Fund that operates as a

24

Risk Factors

fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in a Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.

Liquidity Risk — Liquidity risk exists when particular investments cannot be disposed of quickly in the normal course of business. The ability of the Fund to dispose of such investments at advantageous prices may be greatly limited, and the Fund may have to continue to hold such investments during periods when the Adviser would otherwise have sold them (in order, for example, to meet redemption requests or to take advantage of other investment opportunities). Market values for illiquid investments may not be readily available, and there can be no assurance that any fair value assigned to an illiquid investment at any time will accurately reflect the price the Fund might receive upon the sale of that investment. Adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer, including rising interest rates, may adversely affect the liquidity of the Fund’s investments and the Fund may be forced to sell large amounts of investments more quickly than it normally would in the ordinary course of business. In such cases the sale proceeds received by a Fund may be substantially less than if the Fund had been able to sell the investments in more orderly transactions, and the sale price may be substantially lower than the price previously used by the Fund to value the investment for purposes of determining the Fund’s net asset value. Some investments held by a Fund may be restricted as to resale, and there is often no ready market for such investments. In addition, a Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price.

Management Risk — The investment process used by the investment team may produce incorrect judgments about the value of a particular asset or the team may implement its investment strategy in a way that may not produce the desired results.

Portfolio Turnover Risk — Portfolio turnover generally involves a number of direct and indirect costs and expenses to a Fund, including, for example, dealer mark-ups and bid/asked spreads and transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestment in other securities. Such costs are not reflected in the Funds' Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses set forth under “Fees and Expenses” but do have the effect of reducing a Fund's investment return. Such sales may result in the realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains, which are generally taxed to shareholders at ordinary income tax rates.

Sector Focus Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments. Additionally, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile when the Fund’s investments are focused in a particular sector. Since benchmark sector weights influence the Fund’s sector exposure, the Fund may tend to be more heavily weighted in companies in the financials sector. The values of companies in the financials sector are particularly vulnerable to economic downturns and changes in government regulation and interest rates.

◼

Healthcare Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses on the healthcare sector, the Fund may be more susceptible to the particular risks that may affect companies in the healthcare sector than if it were invested in a wider variety of companies in unrelated sectors. The profitability of companies in the healthcare sector may be adversely affected by the following factors, among others: extensive government regulations, restrictions on government reimbursement for medical expenses, rising costs of medical products and services, pricing pressure, an increased emphasis on outpatient services, changes in the demand for medical products and services, a limited number of products, industry innovation, changes in technologies and other market developments. A number of issuers in the healthcare sector have recently merged or otherwise experienced consolidation. The effects of this trend toward consolidation are

25

Risk Factors

unknown and may be far-reaching. Many healthcare companies are heavily dependent on patent protection. The expiration of a company’s patents may adversely affect that company’s profitability. Many healthcare companies are subject to extensive litigation based on product liability and similar claims. Healthcare companies are subject to competitive forces that may make it difficult to raise prices and, in fact, may result in price discounting. Many new products in the healthcare sector may be subject to regulatory approvals. The process of obtaining such approvals may be long and costly, and such efforts ultimately may be unsuccessful. Companies in the healthcare sector may be thinly capitalized and may be susceptible to product obsolescence. In addition, a number of legislative proposals concerning healthcare have been considered by the U.S. Congress in recent years. It is unclear what proposals will ultimately be enacted, if any, and what effect they may have on companies in the healthcare sector.

◼

Information Technology Risk — Information technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition. Information technology companies may be smaller and less experienced companies, with limited product lines, markets or financial resources and fewer experienced management or marketing personnel. Information technology company stocks, especially those which are internet-related, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that are often unrelated to their operating performance.

Smaller-Company Stock Risk — Small- or mid-sized companies often have more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies and, therefore, may be more susceptible to market downturns or changing economic conditions. In addition, such companies may have been recently organized and have little or no track record of success. Also, the Adviser may not have had an opportunity to evaluate such newer companies’ performance in adverse or fluctuating market conditions. The securities of smaller-sized companies may trade less frequently and in smaller volume than more widely held securities. Prices of small- or mid-sized companies tend to be more volatile than those of larger companies and small- or mid-sized issuers may be subject to greater degrees of changes in their earnings and prospects. Since smaller company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be often more difficult to purchase and sell.

Stock Market Risk — Stock market risk refers to the fact that stock (equity securities) prices typically fluctuate more than the values of other types of securities, typically in response to changes in the particular company’s financial condition and factors affecting the market in general. Over time, the stock market tends to move in cycles, with periods when stock prices rise, and periods when stock prices decline. A slower-growth or recessionary economic environment could have an adverse effect on stock prices. Consequently, a broad-based market drop may also cause a stock’s price to fall. Portfolio securities may also decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment, or due to factors affecting particular industries represented in the securities markets, such as competitive conditions. Changes in the financial condition of a single issuer can impact a market as a whole, and adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities. In addition, the markets may not favor a particular kind of security, including equity securities. Values of securities may fall due to factors affecting a particular issuer, industry or the securities market as a whole.

Market turmoil may be reflected in perceptions of economic uncertainty, price volatility in the equity and debt markets, and fluctuating trading liquidity. In response, governments may adopt a variety of fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs, and lower interest rates. These policies may not be successful

26

Risk Factors

and any unexpected or quick reversal of these policies could increase volatility in the equity and debt markets. Market conditions and economic risks could have a significant effect on domestic and international economies and could add significantly to the risks of increased volatility and decreased liquidity for a Fund's portfolio.

◼

Geopolitical/Natural Disaster Risk — Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. Epidemics and/or pandemics, such as the coronavirus (or COVID-19), may result in, among other things, closing borders, disruptions to healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, cancellations, disruptions to supply chains and consumer activity, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact may last for extended periods.

◼

Information Technology and Operational Risk — Markets and market participants are increasingly reliant upon both publicly available and proprietary information data systems. Data imprecision, software or other technology malfunctions, programming inaccuracies, unauthorized use or access, and similar circumstances may impair the performance of these systems and may have an adverse impact upon a single issuer, a group of issuers, or the market at large. The information technology and other operational systems upon which a Fund’s service providers rely may be subject to cyber attack or other technological disruptions, and could otherwise disrupt the ability of these service providers to perform essential tasks for a Fund. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on either specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in a Fund being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or accurately price its investments.

Additional Risk Factors. The Adviser may use several types of investment strategies in pursuing each Fund's overall investment objective. The following risks are those that the Adviser does not consider to be principal risks of the Funds. Additional risks are included in the Funds' SAI.

Derivatives Risk — Derivatives, such as forward currency contracts, futures contracts and options on futures contracts, are subject to the risk that small price movements can result in substantial gains or losses. Derivatives also entail exposure to counterparty risk, the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the relevant securities, assets or indices. The Fund “covers” its exposure to certain derivative contracts by segregating or designating liquid assets on its records sufficient to satisfy current payment obligations, which may expose the Fund to the market through both the underlying assets subject to the contract and the assets used as cover. The use of derivatives may cause the Fund to incur losses greater than those that would have occurred had derivatives not been used.

Emerging Markets Risk — There are greater risks involved in investing in emerging market countries than those associated with investment in developed foreign markets. The risks of investing in foreign securities generally are amplified for investments in emerging markets securities. Generally, markets in emerging market countries are less diverse and mature than those of developed countries and their political systems are less stable. In addition, recordkeeping, accounting, financial and other reporting may be less extensive and less frequent. There are risks also associated with share registration, custody and foreign investment structures. Further, due to the smaller securities markets, limited reliable access to capital, market manipulation concerns, lower trading volumes and less government regulation of securities markets (including limitations on the available rights and remedies) in

27

Risk Factors

emerging market countries compared to those in developed countries, investments in emerging market securities generally are more illiquid and volatile and subject to a higher risk of settlement disruptions than investments in securities of issuers in developed countries. Consequently, emerging market securities may be subject to relatively more abrupt and severe price declines.

IPO Risk — Investments in IPOs may result in increased transaction costs and expenses and the realization of short-term capital gains and distributions. In addition, in the period immediately following an IPO, investments may be subject to more extreme price volatility than that of other equity investments. A Fund may lose all or part of its investment if the companies making their IPOs fail and their product lines fail to achieve an adequate level of market recognition or acceptance. IPOs may not be available to a Fund at all times, and a Fund may not always invest in IPOs offered to it. Investments in IPOs may have a substantial beneficial effect on a Fund’s investment performance. A Fund's investment return earned during a period of substantial investment in IPOs may not be sustained during other periods when the Fund makes more limited, or no, investments in IPOs.

Investment Company Risk — The Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective may be directly related to the ability of other investment companies (including ETFs) held by the Fund to meet their investment objectives. In addition, shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the underlying investment companies. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.

Securities Lending Risk — The risk in lending portfolio securities, as with other extensions of credit, consists of the possibility of loss to a Fund due to (1) the inability of the borrower to return the securities, (2) a delay in receiving additional collateral to adequately cover any fluctuations in the value of securities on loan, (3) a delay in recovery of the securities, or (4) the loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. These events could trigger adverse tax consequences for a Fund. In addition, a Fund is responsible for any loss that might result from its investment of the borrower’s collateral. In determining whether to lend securities, the Adviser or a Fund’s securities lending agent will consider relevant facts and circumstances, including the creditworthiness of the borrower.

Organization and Management of the Funds

The Funds' Board of Trustees has the overall responsibility for overseeing the management of each Fund.

The Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the investment adviser to each of the Victory Funds pursuant to an investment management agreement. The Adviser oversees the operations of the Funds according to investment policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The Adviser is a New York corporation that is registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As of September 30, 2021, the Adviser managed and advised assets totaling in excess of $159.8 billion for individual and institutional clients. The Adviser’s principal address is 15935 La Cantera Parkway, San Antonio, TX 78256.

The Adviser is a diversified global asset manager comprised of multiple investment teams, referred to as investment franchises, each of which utilizes an independent approach to investing. Munder Capital Management (“Munder”) is the investment franchise responsible for the management of the Funds.

Investing with the Victory Funds  

All you need to do to get started is to fill out an application.

If you are looking for a convenient way to open an account or to add money to an existing account, we can help. The sections that follow will serve as a guide to your investment with the Victory Funds. These sections describe many of the share classes currently offered by the Victory Funds. The section Choosing a Share Class will help you decide which share class it may be to your advantage to buy.

Keep in mind that Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. In addition, not all Victory Funds offer each class of shares described below, and therefore, certain classes may be discussed that are not necessarily offered by a Fund. The classes of shares that are offered by a Fund are those listed on the cover page designated with a ticker symbol. A Fund may also offer other share classes in different prospectuses.

This section of the Prospectus also describes how to open an account, how to access information about your account, and how to buy, exchange, and sell shares of a Victory Fund. Note, this information may vary if you invest through a third party such as a brokerage firm and will be dependent on that firm's policies and practices. Consult your Investment Professional for specific details.

We want to make it simple for you to do business with us. If you have questions about any of this information, please call your Investment Professional or one of our customer service representatives at 800-539-FUND. They will be happy to assist you.  

An Investment Professional is an investment consultant, salesperson, financial planner,

investment adviser, or trust officer who provides you with investment information.

Your Investment Professional also can help you decide which share class is best for you.

Investment Professionals and other financial intermediaries may charge fees for their services.

31

Share Price  

The daily NAV is useful to you as a shareholder because the NAV,

multiplied by the number of Fund shares you own, gives you the value of your investment.

Each Victory Fund calculates its share price, called its net asset value (“NAV”), each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”), which is normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event of an emergency or other disruption in trading on the NYSE, a Fund’s share price will be determined based upon the close of the NYSE. You may buy, exchange, and sell your shares on any business day at a price that is based on the NAV that is next calculated after you place your order. A business day is a day on which the NYSE is open.

To the extent a Fund’s investments include securities that are primarily traded in foreign markets, the value of those securities may change on days when shareholders are unable to purchase and redeem a Fund’s shares, such as on weekends or other days when the Fund does not price its shares.

Each Fund prices its investments based on market value when market quotations are readily available. When these quotations are not readily available, a Fund will price its investments at fair value according to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. A Fund will fair value a security when:

◼

Trading in the security has been halted;

◼

The market quotation for the security is clearly erroneous due to a clerical error;

◼

The security’s liquidity decreases such that, in the Adviser's opinion, the market quotation has become stale; or

◼

An event occurs after the close of the trading market (but before the Fund’s NAV is calculated) that, in the Adviser’s opinion, materially affects the value of the security.

The use of fair value pricing may minimize arbitrage opportunities that attempt to exploit the differences between a security's market quotation and its fair value. The use of fair value pricing may not, however, always reflect a security’s actual market value in light of subsequent relevant information, and the security’s opening price on the next trading day may be different from the fair value price assigned to the security.

Each Victory Fund calculates the NAV of each share class by adding up the total value of the investments and other assets of that class, subtracting its liabilities, and then dividing that figure by the number of outstanding shares of the class.  

NAV=	Total Assets - Liabilities
	Number of Shares Outstanding

You may be able to find a Fund's NAV each day in The Wall Street Journal and other newspapers. Newspapers do not normally publish fund information until a fund reaches a specific number of shareholders or level of assets. You may also find a Fund's NAV by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting the Funds' website at VictoryFunds.com.

Share Classes

When you purchase shares of a Fund, you must choose a share class. The Victory Funds offer Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares. Each share class represents an interest in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes differ in the sales charges, if any, and expenses that apply

33

Choosing a Share Class

to your investment, allowing you and your Investment Professional to choose the class that best suits your investment needs. Not all Victory Funds offer all classes of shares, and some classes of shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. The Victory Funds may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

Deciding which share class best suits your investment needs depends on a number of factors that you should discuss with your Investment Professional, including: how long you expect to hold your investment, how much you intend to invest, and the total expenses associated with each share class.

The Funds reserve the right to change the eligibility criteria for purchasing a particular share class. For example, a class of shares may be available to purchase only by retirement plans or by institutional investors. The Funds may also waive any applicable eligibility criteria or investment minimums at its discretion.

A Fund or any class may be closed at any time for failure to achieve an economical level of assets or for other reasons. Certain financial intermediaries who hold shares on behalf of their customers impose fees when the amount of shares of a particular class falls below a minimum threshold. To the extent that the amount of shares falls below that threshold, the Funds reserve the right to liquidate the shares held in accounts maintained by the financial intermediary.

Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares  

For historical expense information, see the “Financial Highlights”

at the end of this Prospectus.

Class A shares are sold at their public offering price, which is the NAV plus any applicable initial sales charge, also referred to as the “front-end sales load.” The sales charge may be reduced or eliminated for larger purchases, as detailed below or as described under Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares. The investment levels required to obtain a reduced sales charge are commonly referred to as “breakpoints.”

All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through an intermediary specified in Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

In order to obtain a breakpoint discount, you must inform the Victory Funds or your Investment Professional at the time you purchase shares of the existence of the other Victory accounts or purchases of Victory Funds that are eligible to be linked for the purpose of calculating the initial sales charge. The Fund or your Investment Professional may ask you for records or other information about other Victory Funds held in your Victory accounts and any linked accounts, such as accounts opened with a different financial intermediary.

The current sales charge rates and breakpoint levels for Class A shares of the Funds are listed below:  

Your Investment in the Fund	Sales Charge as a % of Offering Price	Sales Charge as a % of Your Investment
Up to $49,999	5.75%	6.10%
$50,000 up to $99,999	4.50%	4.71%
$100,000 up to $249,999	3.50%	3.63%
$250,000 up to $499,999	2.50%	2.56%

1 A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions. You may be eligible for a reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. See CDSC Reductions for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries for details.

Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares  

There are several ways you can combine multiple purchases of Class A shares of the Victory

Funds to take advantage of reduced sales charges and, in some cases, eliminate sales charges.

There are a number of ways you can reduce your sales charges, which we describe below. In order to obtain a Class A sales charge reduction or waiver, you must provide your financial intermediary or the Funds' transfer agent, at the time of purchase, with current information regarding shares of any Victory Funds held in other accounts. This information must include account statements or other records (including written representations from the intermediary holding the shares) that indicate that a sales charge was paid for shares of the Victory Funds held in: any accounts (e.g., retirement accounts) established (i) with the Victory Funds and your investment professional; (ii) with other financial intermediaries; and (iii) in the name of immediate family household members (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21).

The availability of a sales charge reduction or waiver discussed below will depend upon whether you purchase your shares directly from the Funds or through a financial intermediary. If you are eligible for a sales charge reduction because you own shares of other Victory Funds, you must notify the Funds or your financial intermediary at the time of purchase of any relationship or other facts qualifying you for sales charge reductions or waivers. Some intermediaries impose different policies for sales charge waivers and reductions. These variations are described in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. Except as described with respect to the intermediaries specified in Appendix A, all Class A shares are subject to the terms stated below. In order to obtain waivers and discounts that are not available through your intermediary, you must purchase Fund shares directly from the Funds or through another intermediary.

You can find additional information regarding sales charges and their reductions, free of charge, at vcm.com/policies, by clicking on Victory Portfolios' Mutual Funds Pricing Policies.

You may reduce or eliminate the sales charge applicable to Class A shares in a number of ways:

◼

Breakpoint - Purchase a sufficient amount to reach a breakpoint (see Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares above);

◼

Letter of Intent - If you anticipate purchasing $50,000 or more of Class A shares of the Fund, including any purchase of other Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), within a 13-month period, you may qualify for a sales charge breakpoint as though the total quantity were invested in one lump sum. In order to qualify for the reduced sales charge, you must submit a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “Letter”) within 90 days of the start of the purchases. Each investment you make after signing the Letter will be entitled to the sales charge applicable to the total investment indicated in the Letter. You must start with a minimum initial investment of at least 5.00% of the total amount you intend to purchase. A portion of the shares purchased under the Letter will be held in escrow until the total investment has been completed. In the event you do not complete your commitment set forth in

35

Choosing a Share Class

the Letter in the time period specified, sufficient escrowed shares will be redeemed to pay any applicable front-end sales charges;

◼

Right of Accumulation - You may add the value of any other Victory Funds of any share class that you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), to the amount of your next Class A investment to determine if your additional investment will qualify for a sales charge breakpoint. The value of the other Victory Funds of any share class you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) will be calculated by using the greater of the current value or the original investment amount. You may be eligible for reduced sales charges on future purchases of Class A shares of the Fund after you have reached a new breakpoint. To determine your reduced sales charge, you can add the value of your Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), (or those held by your spouse (including domestic partner) and your children under age 21), determined at the previous day’s NAV, to the amount of your new purchase, valued at the current offering price. To ensure that the reduced price will be received pursuant to the Fund’s Right of Accumulation, you or your Investment Professional must inform the Fund’s transfer agent that the Right applies each time shares are purchased and provide the transfer agent with sufficient information to permit confirmation of qualification;

◼

Combination Privilege - You may combine the value in accounts of multiple Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) and in accounts of household members of your immediate family (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21) to achieve a reduced sales charge on your added investment;

◼

Reinstatement Privilege - You may reinvest at NAV all or part of your redemption proceeds within 90 days of a redemption of Class A shares of a Fund;

◼

Waiver - The Victory Funds will completely waive the sales charge for Class A shares in the following cases:

◼

Purchases of $1,000,000 or more;

◼

Purchases by certain individuals associated with the Victory Funds or service providers (see “Eligibility of Individuals Associated with the Victory Funds and Fund Service Providers”);

◼

Purchases by registered broker-dealers, financial intermediaries or their agents or affiliates who have agreements with the Funds' distributor (“Distributor”), if the shares are purchased for their own account, purchased for retirement plans of their employees or sold to registered representatives or full-time employees (or their immediate families), provided that such purchase is for one of the foregoing types of accounts;

◼

Purchases for trust or other advisory accounts established with a financial institution and fee-based investment products or accounts;

◼

Reinvestment of proceeds from a liquidation distribution of Class A shares of a Victory Fund held in a deferred compensation plan, agency, trust, or custody account;

◼

Purchases by retirement plans, including Section 401 and 457 plans sponsored by a Section 501(c)(3) organization and certain non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements that operate in a similar manner to qualified plans. Investors nonetheless may be charged a fee if they effect transactions in Class A shares through a broker or agent;

◼

Purchases by participants in no transaction fee programs offered by certain broker-dealers (sometimes referred to as “supermarkets”);

◼

Purchases by certain financial intermediaries who offer shares to self-directed investment brokerage accounts that may or may not charge a transaction fee to its customers;

◼

Investors that have an investment account with the Adviser;

36

Choosing a Share Class

◼

Purchases by CMS Energy employees participating in a Victory prototype Roth IRA plan by way of payroll deduction from CMS Energy; and

◼

Individuals who reinvest the proceeds of redemptions from Class I, Class R6 or Class Y shares of a Victory Fund within 60 days of redemption.

You should inform the Fund or your Investment Professional at the time of purchase of the sales charge waiver category which you believe applies.

CDSC for Class A Shares

A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through the intermediaries specified in Appendix A.

CDSC for Class C Shares

You will pay a 1.00% CDSC on any Class C shares you sell within 12 months of purchase. The CDSC is based on the current value of the shares being sold or their NAV when purchased, whichever is less. There is no CDSC on shares you acquire by reinvesting your dividends or capital gains distributions. You may be eligible for reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. There is no CDSC imposed when you exchange your shares for Class C shares of another Victory Fund; however, your exchange is subject to the same CDSC schedule that applied to your original purchase.

An investor may, within 90 days of a redemption of Class C shares, reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds in the Class C shares of any Victory Fund at the NAV next computed after receipt by the transfer agent of the reinvestment order. Class C share proceeds reinvested do not result in a refund of any CDSC paid by the shareholder, but the reinvested shares will be treated as CDSC exempt upon reinvestment. The shareholder must ask the Distributor for such privilege at the time of reinvestment.

To keep your CDSC as low as possible, each time you sell shares we will first sell shares in your account that are not subject to a CDSC. If there are not enough of these to meet your sale, we will sell the shares in the order they were purchased.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares

No CDSC is imposed on redemptions of Class A and Class C shares in the following circumstances:

To the extent that the shares redeemed:

subject to the CDSC, if applicable, calculated from the original date of purchase until the applicable holding period expires. In determining whether the CDSC applies to each redemption, shares not subject to a CDSC are redeemed first;

a registered shareholder on an account; or

◼

a settlor of a living trust, of shares held in the account at the time of death or initial determination of post-purchase disability;

Information About Fees

Distribution and Service Plans

In accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Trust has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class A, Class C and Class R shares of the Funds.

Under the Class A Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets of Class A shares. Under the Class R Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.50% of its average daily net assets of Class R shares. The fee is paid for general distribution services, for selling Class A and Class R shares of the Fund and, as applicable, for providing personal services to shareholders of the Fund. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of Fund shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Under the Class C Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of its Class C shares. Of this amount, 0.75% of the Fund’s Class C shares average daily net assets will be paid for general distribution services and for selling Class C shares. The Fund will pay 0.25% of its Class C shares average daily net assets to compensate financial institutions that provide personal services to Class C shareholders of the Fund. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of the Fund’s Class C shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Because Rule 12b-1 fees are paid out of a Fund’s assets and on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

Other Payments to Financial Intermediaries

Except with respect to Class R6 shares, if you purchase Fund shares through an Investment Professional, a broker dealer, or other financial intermediary, the Fund may pay for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and/or similar administrative services. In addition, the Adviser (and its affiliates) may make substantial payments out of its own resources, including the profits from the advisory fees the Adviser receives from the Funds, to affiliated and unaffiliated dealers or other Investment Professionals and service providers for distribution, administrative and/or shareholder servicing activities. The Adviser also may reimburse the Distributor (or the Distributor's affiliates) for making these payments. Some of these distribution-related payments may be made to dealers or other Investment Professionals for marketing, promotional or related expenses; these payments are often referred to as “revenue sharing.” The Adviser (and its affiliates) also may pay fixed fees for the listing of a Fund on a broker-dealer’s or financial intermediary’s system. Such payments are not considered to be revenue sharing payments.

In some circumstances, these types of payments may create an incentive for a dealer or Investment Professional or its representatives to recommend or offer shares of the Victory Funds to its customers. You should ask your dealer or Investment Professional for more details about any such payments it receives.

40

Information About Fees

No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries from Fund assets, or from the resources of the Adviser or its affiliates on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares.

You can also obtain an Account Application by contacting your Investment Professional. When you invest through an Investment Professional, the procedures for buying, selling, and exchanging shares and the account features and policies may differ. In addition to any limitations described in this Prospectus, an Investment Professional or other intermediary may also place other limits on your ability to use the services of a Fund. Sometimes an Investment Professional will charge you for its services. This fee will be in addition to, and unrelated to, the fees and expenses charged by the Funds.

Mutual funds must obtain and verify information that identifies investors opening new accounts. If the Funds are unable to collect the required information, you may not be able to open your account. Additional details about the Funds' Customer Identification Program are available in the section “Important Fund Policies.”

If you participate in a retirement plan that offers one of the Victory Funds as an option, please consult your employer for information on how to purchase shares of the Victory Funds through the plan, including any restrictions or limitations that may apply.

Paying for Your Initial Purchase

If you wish to make an investment directly into the Victory Funds, make your check payable to the “Victory Funds.” All checks must be drawn on U.S. banks. If your check is returned as uncollectible for any reason, you will be charged for any resulting fees and/or losses. The Fund does not accept cash, money orders, traveler’s checks, credit card convenience checks, or third party checks. Additionally, bank starter checks are not accepted for the shareholder’s initial investment into the Funds. All payments must be denominated in U.S. dollars.

Minimum Investments

If you would like to buy Class A or Class C shares, the minimum investment required to open an account is $2,500 ($1,000 for IRA accounts), with additional investments of at least $50. If you would like to buy Class I, Class R, Class R6 or Class Y shares, you must be an Eligible Investor, as discussed in the section Choosing a Share Class — Eligibility Requirements to Purchase. Eligible Investors may be subject to a minimum investment amount as detailed in that section.

For Class C shares, individual purchases of $1,000,000 and above will automatically be made in Class A shares.

If your account falls below the minimum investment amount, we may ask you to reestablish the minimum investment. If you do not do so within 60 days, we may close your account and send you the value of your account.

The minimum investment required to open an account may be waived or lowered for employees and immediate family members of the employees, of the Adviser, the Administrator, and their affiliates. In addition, the minimum investment required may be waived when a Fund is purchased through an Advisory Program, within qualified retirement plans or in other similar circumstances. Although the

42

Funds may sometimes waive the minimum investment, when they do so, they always reserve the right to reject initial investments under the minimum at their discretion.

There is no minimum investment required to open an account or for additional investments in Victory Simple IRAs.

A Fund reserves the right to change the criteria for eligible investors and the investment minimums.

How to Exchange Shares  

There may be limits on the ability to exchange between certain Victory Funds. You can

obtain a list of Victory Funds available for exchange by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting

VictoryFunds.com

The shares of any class of a Fund may be exchanged for the shares of any other class offered by the Fund or the same class, or any other class of any Victory Fund, either through your Investment Professional or directly through the Fund, subject to the conditions described below:

◼

Exchanges are subject to any CDSC, minimum investment limitation or eligibility requirements described in the applicable Prospectus and SAI. You may be required to provide sufficient information to establish eligibility to exchange into a new share class.

◼

To exchange with a Victory Fund, the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into must be eligible for exchange with your Fund.

◼

Shares of the Victory Fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in your state of residence.

If you have questions about these, or any of the Funds' other exchange policies, please consult Victory Customer Service or your Investment Professional before requesting an exchange.

Before exchanging, you should read the Prospectus of the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into, which may be subject to different risks, fees and expenses.

Class C Share Conversion

Class C shares of the Fund will automatically convert to Class A shares in the month following the eight-year anniversary date of the purchase of the Class C shares. Your financial intermediary may have a conversion schedule that is shorter than eight years. Class C conversions will be effected at the relative NAV of each such class without the imposition of any sales charge, fee or other charge.

You may be able to voluntarily convert your Class C shares before the stated anniversary to a different share class of the same Fund that has a lower total annual operating expense ratio provided certain conditions are met. This voluntary conversion feature is intended for shares held through a financial intermediary offering a fee-based or wrap fee program that has an agreement with the Adviser or the Distributor specific for this purpose. Generally, Class C shares are not eligible for conversion until the applicable CDSC period has expired. Please contact your financial intermediary for additional information.

Processing Your Voluntary Exchange/Conversion

If your exchange or conversion request is received and accepted by the Funds, an Investment Professional or other intermediary by the close of trading as described in the section entitled, “Share Price,” then your request will be processed the same day. If received after the close of trading, your request will be processed on the next business day. Please contact your financial intermediary regarding the tax consequences of any exchange or conversion.

Exchanges will occur at the respective NAVs of the Funds' share classes involved in the exchange next calculated after receipt and acceptance of your exchange request in good order, plus any applicable sales charge described in the Prospectus. Share class conversions will be based on the respective NAV of each class as of the trade date of the conversion. Consequently, you may receive fewer shares or more shares than originally owned, depending on that day’s NAVs.

Requesting an Exchange

You can exchange shares of the Funds by telephone, by mail or via the Internet. You cannot exchange into an account with a different registration or tax identification number.

◼

By Telephone

45

How to Exchange Shares

Unless you indicate otherwise on the account application, Victory Customer Service will be authorized to accept exchange instructions received by telephone.

◼

By Mail

Send a letter of instruction signed by all registered owners or their legal representatives to the Victory Funds.

◼

Via the Internet

Other Exchange Rules You Should Know

The Funds may refuse any exchange purchase request if the Adviser determines that the request is associated with a market timing strategy. The Funds may terminate or modify the exchange privilege at any time upon 60 days’ notice to shareholders.

An exchange of Fund shares for shares of another Victory Fund constitutes a sale for tax purposes unless the exchange is made within an IRA or other tax-deferred account.

For information on how to exchange shares of a Fund that were purchased through your employer’s retirement plan, including any restrictions and charges that the plan may impose, please consult your employer.

How to Sell Shares  

There are a number of convenient ways to sell your shares. You can use the same mailing

addresses listed for purchases.

If your redemption request is received in good order by the close of trading on the NYSE, your redemption will be processed the same day. Your redemption will not be processed until the next business day if it is received after the close of trading on the NYSE. You cannot redeem your shares at www.VictoryFunds.com.

 

BY TELEPHONE

The easiest way to redeem shares is by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863). When you fill out your original application, be sure to check the box marked “Telephone Authorization.” Then when you are ready to sell, call and tell us which one of the following options you would like to use:

◼

Mail a check to the address of record;

◼

Wire funds to a previously designated domestic financial institution;

◼

Mail a check to a previously designated alternate address; or

◼

Electronically transfer your redemption via ACH to a previously designated domestic financial institution.

The transfer agent records all telephone calls for your protection and takes measures to verify the identity of the caller. If the transfer agent properly acts on telephone instructions and follows reasonable procedures to ensure against unauthorized transactions, none of the Trust, its servicing agents, the Adviser, or the transfer agent will be responsible for any losses. If the transfer agent does not follow these procedures, it may be liable to you for losses resulting from unauthorized instructions.

If there is an unusual amount of market activity and you cannot reach the transfer agent or your Investment Professional by telephone, consider placing your order by mail.

 

BY MAIL

Use the regular U.S. mail or overnight mail address to redeem shares. Send us a letter of instruction indicating your Fund account number, amount of redemption, and where to send the proceeds. A Medallion signature guarantee is required for the following redemption requests:

◼

Your account registration has changed within the last 15 business days;

◼

The check is not being mailed to the address on your account;

◼

The check is not being made payable to the owner of the account;

◼

The redemption proceeds are being transferred to another Victory Fund account with a different registration; or

◼

The check or wire is being sent to a different bank account than was previously designated.

You can get a Medallion signature guarantee from a financial institution — such as a commercial bank, broker dealer, credit union, clearing agency, or savings bank — that is a member of a Medallion signature guarantee program.  

BY WIRE

If you want to receive your proceeds by wire, you must establish a Fund account that will accommodate wire transactions. If you call before the close of trading on the NYSE, your funds will be wired on the next business day.  

BY ACH

Normally, your redemption will be processed on the same day, but will be processed on the next day if received after the close of trading on the NYSE. It will be transferred by ACH as long as the transfer is to a domestic bank.

If you check this box on the Account Application or on the Account Maintenance Form, we will send monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payments to the person you designate. The minimum withdrawal is $25, and you must have a balance of $5,000 or more at the time you establish the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If the payment is to be sent to an account of yours, we will need a voided check to activate this feature. If the payment is to be made to an address different from your account address, we will need a Medallion signature guaranteed letter of instruction. You should be aware that each withdrawal may be a taxable transaction. Also, each withdrawal reduces your account balance, and eventually your account balance may be depleted. However, you cannot automatically close your account using the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If your balance falls below the initial purchase minimum, we may ask you to bring the account back to the minimum balance. If you decide not to increase your account to the minimum balance, your account may be closed and the proceeds mailed to you.

Additional Information About Redemptions

◼

Redemption proceeds from the sale of Fund shares purchased by a check or through ACH will be held until the purchase check or ACH has cleared, which will take up to 10 business days.

◼

We typically expect to send the proceeds from your share redemption within one business day after we execute your order, but we may take up to seven business days to send redemption proceeds, regardless of payment type. When you sell shares through your financial intermediary, you can ask the intermediary to tell you when you can expect to receive the proceeds of your redemption.

◼

A Fund may suspend your right to redeem your shares in the following circumstances:

◼

During non-routine closings of the NYSE;

◼

When the SEC determines either that trading on the NYSE is restricted or that an emergency prevents the sale or valuation of the Fund’s securities; or

◼

When the SEC orders a suspension to protect the Fund’s shareholders.

◼

A Fund typically uses cash and cash equivalents held in its portfolio or sells portfolio assets to meet redemption requests. In unusual circumstances or under stressed market conditions, the Fund may use other methods to raise cash to meet redemption requests. For example, the Fund may draw funds from a line of credit or borrow available cash held by other Victory Funds under an “interfund lending program” in reliance on an exemptive order from the SEC.

◼

A Fund will pay redemptions by any one shareholder during any 90-day period in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1.00% of the Fund’s net assets. The Funds reserve the right to pay the remaining portion “in kind,” that is, in portfolio securities rather than cash. Securities received pursuant to an in-kind redemption are subject to market risk until sold and may be subject to brokerage and other fees.

◼

If you choose to have your redemption proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the redemption check to you or the check remains outstanding for more than six months, the Funds reserve the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed redemption checks.

Distributions and Taxes  

Buying a dividend. You should check the Funds' distribution schedule before you invest.

If you buy shares of a Fund shortly before it makes a distribution,

some of your investment may come back to you as a taxable distribution.

As a shareholder, you are entitled to your share of net income and capital gains on a Fund's investments. Each Fund passes its earnings along to investors in the form of dividends. Dividends paid by a Fund represent the net income from dividends and interest earned on investments after expenses. Each Fund will distribute short-term gains, as necessary, and if the Fund makes a long-term capital gain distribution, it is normally paid once a year.

Ordinarily, each Fund declares and pays dividends annually. However, a Fund may not always pay a dividend or distribution for a given period. Each class of shares declares and pays dividends separately.

Distributions can be received in one of the following ways. Please check with your Investment Professional if you are unsure of which option is right for you.  

Your choice of distribution should be set up on the original Account Application.

If you would like to change the option you selected, please call 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863).

Reinvestment Option

You can have distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of your Fund. If you do not indicate another choice on your Account Application, you will be assigned this option automatically.

Cash Option

If you elect to receive your distributions by check, and the distribution amount is $25 or less, the amount will automatically be reinvested in the same Fund. Otherwise, a check will be mailed to you no later than seven days after the dividend payment date. If you choose to have your distribution proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the distribution check to you or the check remains outstanding for at least six months, the distribution option on your account will default to the reinvestment option as described above. Each Fund reserves the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution checks.

Income Earned Option

You can automatically reinvest your dividends in additional Fund shares and have your capital gains paid in cash, or reinvest capital gains and have your dividends paid in cash.

Directed Distributions Option

In most cases, you can automatically reinvest distributions in shares of another Victory Fund. If you reinvest your distributions in a different Victory Fund, you will pay a sales charge on the amount of reinvested distributions.

Directed Bank Account Option

In most cases, you can automatically transfer distributions to your bank checking or savings account. Under normal circumstances, the transfer agent will transfer your distributions within seven days of the dividend payment date. The bank account must have a registration identical to that of your Fund

account.

Distributions and Taxes

Important Information About Taxes  

The tax information in this Prospectus is provided as general information. You should

consult your own tax adviser about the tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

Each Fund expects to pay no federal income tax on the earnings and capital gains it distributes to shareholders.

◼

Qualified dividend income received from a Fund by noncorporate shareholders will be taxed at long-term capital gain rates to the extent attributable to qualified dividend income received by the Fund, subject to certain holding period requirements. Nonqualified dividends, dividends received by corporate shareholders and dividends from a Fund’s short-term capital gains are taxable as ordinary income. Dividends from a Fund’s long-term capital gains are taxable as long-term capital gains.

◼

You will pay tax on dividends from a Fund whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund.

◼

Dividends from a Fund that are attributable to interest on certain U.S. government obligations, if any, may be exempt from certain state and local income taxes. The extent to which ordinary dividends are attributable to these U.S. government obligations will be provided on the tax statements you receive from a Fund.

◼

An exchange of a Fund’s shares for shares of another Victory Fund will be treated as a sale. When you sell or exchange shares of a Fund, you generally will recognize any gain or loss.

◼

An exchange of one class of a Fund’s shares for shares of another class of the same Fund generally constitutes a nontaxable exchange.

◼

Distributions from a Fund and gains from the disposition of your shares may also be subject to state and local income tax.

◼

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (which includes dividends and gain recognized on a disposition of shares) of certain U.S. individuals, estates, and trusts.

◼

Certain dividends paid to you in January will be taxable as if they had been paid to you the previous December.

◼

Tax statements will be mailed from each Fund by mid-February showing the amounts and tax status of distributions made to you in the prior calendar year.

◼

Because your tax treatment depends on your purchase price and tax position, you should keep your regular account statements for use in determining your tax.

◼

A Fund is generally required by law to provide you and the Internal Revenue Service with certain cost basis information related to the sale or redemption of any of your shares in the Fund acquired on or after January 1, 2012, (including distributions that are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund).

◼

A Fund may be required to withhold tax from dividends and redemption proceeds if you fail to give your correct social security or taxpayer identification number, fail to make required certifications, or the Fund is notified by the Internal Revenue Service that backup withholding is required.

◼

If you are a nonresident alien individual, foreign trust or estate, foreign corporation or foreign partnership, a Fund’s ordinary income dividends may be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

Under the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,” unless certain foreign entities comply with certain IRS requirements that generally require them to report information regarding U.S. persons investing in, or holding accounts with, such entities, a 30% U.S. withholding tax may

50

Distributions and Taxes

apply to dividends paid by a Fund to such entities. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

You should review the more detailed discussion of federal income tax considerations in the SAI and consult your tax adviser regarding the federal, state, local, or foreign tax consequences resulting from your investment in the Fund.

◼

The Funds may provide estimated capital gain distribution information through the website at VictoryFunds.com.

Important Fund Policies

Customer Identification Program

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations.

As a result, the Victory Funds must obtain the following information for each person who opens a new account:

◼

Name;

◼

Date of birth (for individuals);

◼

Residential or business street address (although post office boxes are still permitted for mailing); and

◼

Social security number, taxpayer identification number, or other identifying number.

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities. Federal law prohibits the Victory Funds and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Victory Funds may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified. The Victory Funds may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares will be redeemed at the NAV next calculated after the account is closed.

Account Maintenance Information

For the following non-financial transactions, the Victory Funds require proof that your signature authorizing a transaction is authentic. This verification can be provided in all cases by either a Signature Validation Program (SVP) stamp or a Medallion signature guarantee (MSG). In some instances a Notary Public stamp is an acceptable alternative. As with the MSG, a SVP stamp can also be obtained from a financial institution that is a member of the SVP program.

Market Timing

The Victory Funds discourage frequent purchases and redemptions of Fund shares (market timing). Market timing allows investors to take advantage of market inefficiencies, sometimes to the disadvantage of other shareholders. Market timing increases Fund expenses to all shareholders by increasing portfolio turnover. In addition, market timing could potentially dilute share value for all other shareholders by requiring the Fund to hold more cash than it normally would.

52

Important Fund Policies

The Funds' Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures with respect to market timing. In order to prevent or minimize market timing, the Funds will:

◼

Employ “fair value” pricing, as described in this Prospectus under Share Price, to minimize the discrepancies between a security’s market quotation and its perceived market value, which often gives rise to market timing activity; and

◼

Monitor for suspected market timing based on “short-term transaction” activity, that is, a purchase or redemption of a Fund and, as applicable, a subsequent redemption or purchase of the same Fund, or an exchange of all or part of that same Fund.

In monitoring for market timing activity, we consider, among other things, the frequency of your trades and whether you acquired your Fund shares directly through the transfer agent or whether you combined your trades with a group of shareholders in an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary.

Frequent trading by a shareholder is generally a characteristic of market timing. Therefore, any account in which Fund shares are acquired directly through the transfer agent, or where the Fund can adequately identify the shareholder, with a history of three short-term transactions within 90 days or less is suspected of market timing and the shareholder’s trading privileges (other than redemption of Fund shares) will be suspended.

We may make exceptions to the “short-term transaction” policy for certain types of transactions if, in the opinion of the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, the transactions do not represent short-term or excessive trading or are not abusive or harmful to the Funds, such as, but not limited to, systematic transactions, required minimum retirement distributions, transactions initiated by the Funds or administrator and transactions by certain qualified funds-of-funds.

If you acquired shares through an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary (such as investment advisers, broker-dealers, third-party administrators or insurance companies), and market timing is suspected, different purchase and exchange limitations may apply. We may rely upon a financial intermediary’s policy to deter short-term or excessive trading (i) if we believe that the financial intermediary’s policy is reasonably designed to detect and deter transactions that are not in the best interests of the Funds, or (ii) if we receive an undertaking from the financial intermediary to enforce short-term or excessive trading policies on behalf of the Funds that provide a substantially similar level of protection for the Funds against such transactions. If you hold your Fund shares through a financial intermediary, you are advised to consult the intermediary to determine what purchase and exchange limitations apply to your account.

We reserve the right to reject or cancel a purchase or exchange order for any reason without prior notice. We will deny your request to purchase or exchange your shares if we believe that the transaction is part of a market timing strategy.

The Funds' market timing policies and procedures may be modified or terminated at any time under the oversight of the Board of Trustees.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure

A description of each Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Funds' portfolio securities is available in the Funds' SAI, which is available upon request and on the Funds' website at VictoryFunds.com.

Important Fund Policies

Performance

The Victory Funds may advertise the performance of a Fund by comparing it to other mutual funds with similar objectives and policies. Performance information also may appear in various publications. Any fees charged by Investment Professionals may not be reflected in these performance calculations.

Advertising information may include the average annual total return of the Funds calculated on a compounded basis for specified periods of time. Total return information will be calculated according to rules established by the SEC. Such information may include performance rankings and similar information from independent organizations and publications.

Shareholder Communications

In order to eliminate duplicate mailings to an address at which two or more shareholders with the same last name reside, the Victory Funds may send only one copy of any shareholder reports, proxy statements, prospectuses and their supplements, unless you have instructed us to the contrary. You may request that the Victory Funds send these documents to each shareholder individually by calling the Victory Funds at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863), and they will be delivered promptly.

While this Prospectus and the SAI of the Trust describe pertinent information about the Trust and the Funds, neither this Prospectus nor the SAI represents a contract between the Trust or the Funds and any shareholder.

54

Financial Highlights

The following financial highlights tables reflect historical information about shares of the Funds and are intended to help you understand each Fund's financial performance for the past five years, or, if shorter, the period of its operations. Certain information shows the results of an investment in one share of the Fund. To the extent a Fund invests in other funds, the Total Annual Operating Expenses included in a Fund's Fees and Expenses Table may not correlate to the ratio of expenses to average net assets in the financial highlights below. The total returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in each Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).

The information presented  for the fiscal years ended on or after June 30, 2019, has been audited by Cohen & Company, Ltd., the Funds' independent registered public accounting firm, whose report, along with the Funds' financial statements, are included in the Funds' annual report. The information for all prior periods has been audited by a different independent registered public accounting firm. The Funds' annual and semi-annual reports are available by calling the Victory Funds at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) and at www.VictoryFunds.com.

Breakpoints - Breakpoint pricing, otherwise known as volume pricing, at dollar thresholds as described in the prospectus.

◼

Rights of Accumulation (“ROA”)

◼

The applicable sales charge on a purchase of Class A shares is determined by taking into account all share classes (except certain money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) of the Victory Funds held by the shareholder or in an account grouped by Edward Jones with other accounts for the purpose of providing certain pricing considerations (“pricing groups”). If grouping assets as a shareholder, this includes all share classes held on the Edward Jones platform and/or held on another platform. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the ROA calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Money market funds are included only if such shares were sold with a sales charge at the time of purchase or acquired in exchange for shares purchased with a sales charge.

◼

ROA is determined by calculating the higher of cost minus redemptions or market value (current shares x NAV).

◼

The employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan may elect to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping as opposed to including all share classes at a shareholder or pricing group level.

Through a LOI, shareholders can receive the sales charge and breakpoint discounts for purchases shareholders intend to make over a 13-month period from the date Edward Jones receives the LOI. The LOI is determined by calculating the higher of cost or market value of qualifying holdings at LOI initiation in combination with the value that the shareholder intends to buy over a 13-month period to calculate the front-end sales charge and any breakpoint discounts. Each purchase the shareholder makes during that 13-month period will receive the sales charge and breakpoint discount that applies to the total amount. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the LOI calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Purchases made before the LOI is received by Edward Jones are not adjusted under the LOI and will not reduce the sales charge previously paid. Sales charges will be adjusted if LOI is not met.

◼

If the employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan has elected to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping, LOIs will also be at the plan-level and may only be established by the employer.

Sales Charge Waivers - Sales charges are waived for the following shareholders and in the following situations:

◼

Associates of Edward Jones and its affiliates and their family members who are in the same pricing group (as determined by Edward Jones under its policies and procedures) as the associate.

S&P 500 Index Fund Summary

Investment Objective

The Victory S&P 500 Index Fund (the “Fund”)  seeks to provide performance and income that is comparable to the S&P 500® Index (the “Index”).

Fund Fees and Expenses

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 12 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

Shareholder Fees
(paid directly from your investment)  

	Class A	Class R	Class Y
Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Purchases (as a percentage of offering price)	2.25%	None	None
Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load) (as a percentage of the lower of purchase or sale price)	None	None	None

Annual Fund Operating Expenses
(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)  

Management Fees	0.20%	0.20%	0.20%
Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees	0.15%	0.50%	0.00%
Other Expenses	0.20%	0.25%	0.25%
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	0.55%	0.95%	0.45%

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 280	$ 397	$ 525	$ 899
Class R	$ 97	$ 303	$ 525	$ 1,166
Class Y	$ 46	$ 144	$ 252	$567

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

S&P 500 Index Fund Summary

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 3% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

Victory Capital Management Inc. (“Adviser”) pursues the Fund’s objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies in the S&P 500® Index (“Index”). The Index is an unmanaged index of 500 common stocks selected by Standard & Poor’s as representative of a broad range of industries within the U.S. economy, including foreign securities. The Index is composed primarily of stocks issued by large-capitalization companies.

To replicate the performance of the Index, the Adviser purchases and maintains all or substantially all of the securities included in the Index, in approximately the same percentages as such securities are included in the Index. Because the Fund seeks to track the performance of the Index, the Adviser does not actively determine the stock selection or sector allocation. The percentage weighting of a particular security in the Index is determined by that security’s relative total market capitalization, which is the market price per share of the security multiplied by the number of shares outstanding.

To track the Index as closely as possible, the Fund attempts to remain fully invested in stocks. The Fund normally invests at least 95% of its net assets in the stocks of companies included in the Index. The Adviser uses futures contracts to manage cash, accrued dividends and other non-performing assets in an effort to minimize performance disparity between the Fund and the Index.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Passive Investment Risk/Index Risk — The Fund is designed to track the Index and is not actively managed. The Fund will not buy or sell shares of an equity security due to current or projected performance of a security, industry or sector, unless that security is added to or removed, respectively, from the Index. The Fund does not, therefore, seek returns in excess of the Index, and does not attempt to take defensive positions or hedge against potential risks unless such defensive positions are also taken by the Index.

Tracking Risk — The Fund's return may not match the return of the Index for a number of reasons, including: the Fund incurs operating expenses not applicable to the Index, and incurs costs in buying and selling securities; the Fund may not be fully invested at times; differences in the valuation of securities; and differences between the Fund's portfolio and the Index resulting from legal restrictions, cost or liquidity constraints.

Futures Contracts Risk – The Fund's use of futures contracts exposes the Fund to leverage and tracking risks because a small investment in futures contracts may produce large losses and futures contracts may not be perfect substitutes for securities.

2

S&P 500 Index Fund Summary

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

The performance figures for Class A, R and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, R and Y shares of the Munder Index 500 Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any difference in the expenses of the Munder

Index 500 Fund.

S&P 500 Index Fund Summary

Management of the Fund

Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. The portfolio manager primarily responsible for day-to-day management of the Fund is a member of the Adviser’s Victory Solutions platform, which oversees the Adviser's rules-based investment strategies.

Portfolio Manager 

	Title	Tenure with the Fund
Mannik Dhillon, CFA, CAIA®	President, VictoryShares and Solutions	Since 2018

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares 

Investment Minimums	Class A	Class R	Class Y
Minimum Initial Investment	$2,500	None	$1,000,000
Minimum Subsequent Investments	$50	None	None

For Class A shares a $1,000 minimum initial purchase amount and a $50 minimum subsequent purchase amount apply for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), gift/transfer to minor accounts, and purchases through automatic investment plans.

You may redeem your shares on any day the Fund is open for business. Redemption requests may be made by telephone (with prior appropriate approval) or by mail.

When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value (“NAV”) after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Additional Fund Information  

Victory Capital Management Inc., which we refer to as the “Adviser”

throughout the Prospectus, manages the Fund.

The Victory S&P 500 Index Fund (the “Fund”) is managed by the Adviser, who also manages other funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Together, these funds are referred to in this Prospectus as the “Victory Funds” or, more simply, the “Funds.”

The following section describes additional information about the principal investment strategy the Fund will use under normal market conditions to pursue its investment objective, as well as any secondary strategies the Fund may use, and the related risks. In managing the Fund, the Adviser uses a “passive” or indexing approach to try to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. The Fund does not try to outperform the S&P 500® Index (“Index”).

The Adviser expects that, over time, the correlation between a Fund’s performance and that of the Index, before fees and expenses, will be 95% or better. A number of factors may affect the Fund’s ability to achieve a high degree of correlation with its Index, and there can be no guarantee that the Fund will achieve a high degree of correlation. The Adviser monitors the Fund on an ongoing basis, and makes adjustments to its portfolio, as necessary, to minimize tracking error and to maintain liquidity.

This Prospectus does not attempt to describe all of the various investment techniques and types of investments that the Adviser may use in managing the Fund. The SAI includes more information about the Fund, its investments, and the related risks. Keep in mind that for cash management purposes, the Fund may hold all or a portion of its assets in cash, short-term money market instruments or shares of other investment companies. This may reduce the benefit from any upswing in the market, cause the Fund to fail to meet its investment objective and increase the Fund’s expenses.

The Fund’s investment objective and policy to invest under normal market conditions at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies included in the index is non-fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval upon at least 60 days’ written notice to shareholders. For purposes of the Fund’s 80% investment policy, “assets” means the Fund’s net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes.

Investments

The following describes the types of securities the Fund may purchase under normal market conditions to achieve its principal investment strategy. The Fund will not necessarily buy all of the securities listed below.

U.S. Equity Securities

Can include common stock, preferred stock, and securities that are convertible or exchangeable into common stock of U.S. corporations.

Futures Contracts and Options on Futures Contracts

Contracts involving the right or obligation to deliver or receive assets or money depending on the performance of one or more assets or an economic index. To reduce the effects of leverage, liquid assets equal to the contract commitment are set aside to cover the commitment. The Fund may invest in futures in an effort to hedge against market or currency risk, as a temporary substitute for buying or selling securities or for temporary cash management purposes. There is no assurance that the Fund will engage in any hedging transactions.

Additional Fund Strategies. The Adviser may use other types of investment strategies in pursuing the Fund's overall investment objective. The following describes the types of securities that the Adviser may purchase or investment techniques the Adviser may employ that are not considered to be a part of the Fund's principal investment strategies. Additional securities and techniques are described in the Fund's SAI.

Investment Companies

The Fund may invest in securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, if those companies invest in securities consistent with the Fund's investment objective and policies. ETFs are investment companies the shares of which are bought and sold on a securities exchange.

Securities Lending

To enhance the return on its portfolio, the Fund may lend portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and financial institutions to realize additional income under guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees. Each loan will be secured continuously by collateral in the form of cash, securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities.

Risk Factors

The following provides additional information about the Fund's principal risks and supplements those risks discussed in the Fund's Fund Summary section of this Prospectus.  

By matching your investment objective with an acceptable level of risk,

you can create your own customized investment plan.

Derivatives Risk — Derivatives, such as futures contracts and options on futures contracts, are subject to the risk that small price movements can result in substantial gains or losses. Derivatives also entail exposure to counterparty risk, the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the relevant securities, assets or indices. The Fund “covers” its exposure to certain derivative contracts by segregating or designating liquid assets on its records sufficient to satisfy current payment obligations, which may expose the Fund to the market through both the underlying assets subject to the contract and the assets used as cover. The use of derivatives may cause the Fund to incur losses greater than those that would have occurred had derivatives not been used.

Equity Securities Risk — The market prices of equity securities, which may include common stocks and other stock-related securities such as preferred stocks, convertible securities and rights and warrants, may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. The Fund may continue to accept new subscriptions and to make additional investments in equity securities even under general market conditions that a Fund’s investment team views as unfavorable for equity securities. The value of a security may decline for reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage, and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services or due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. Unlike debt securities, which have preference to a company’s assets in case of liquidation, common stock, are entitled to the residual value after the company meets its other obligations. Unlike common stock, preferred stock generally pays a fixed dividend from a company’s earnings and may have a preference over common stock on the distribution of a company’s assets in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation. Preferred stockholders’ liquidation rights are subordinate to the company’s debt holders and creditors. If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may be less attractive and the price of preferred stocks may decline. Convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible securities of similar quality. Convertible securities may gain or lose value due to changes in the issuer’s operating results, financial condition, credit rating and changes in interest rates and other general economic, industry and market conditions. Rights and warrants can provide a greater potential for profit or loss than an equivalent investment in the underlying security. Prices of warrants and rights do not necessarily move in tandem with the prices of the underlying securities and therefore are highly volatile and speculative investments.

Index Strategy Risk — The Fund will invest in the securities included in the Index regardless of market trends. As a result, the Fund does not modify its investment strategy to respond to changes in the economy, which means it may be particularly susceptible to a general decline in the large-capitalization sector of the U.S. stock market.

Stock Market Risk — Stock market risk refers to the fact that stock (equity securities) prices typically fluctuate more than the values of other types of securities, typically in response to changes in the particular company’s financial condition and factors affecting the market in general. Over time, the stock market tends to move in cycles, with periods when stock prices rise, and periods when stock prices decline. A slower-growth or recessionary economic environment could have an adverse effect on stock prices. Consequently, a broad-based market drop may also cause a stock’s price to fall. Portfolio securities may also decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment, or due to factors affecting particular industries

Risk Factors

represented in the securities markets, such as competitive conditions. Changes in the financial condition of a single issuer can impact a market as a whole, and adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities. In addition, the markets may not favor a particular kind of security, including equity securities. Values of securities may fall due to factors affecting a particular issuer, industry or the securities market as a whole.

Market turmoil may be reflected in perceptions of economic uncertainty, price volatility in the equity and debt markets, and fluctuating trading liquidity. In response, governments may adopt a variety of fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs, and lower interest rates. These policies may not be successful and any unexpected or quick reversal of these policies could increase volatility in the equity and debt markets. Market conditions and economic risks could have a significant effect on domestic and international economies and could add significantly to the risks of increased volatility and decreased liquidity for the Fund's portfolio.

◼

Geopolitical/Natural Disaster Risk — Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. Epidemics and/or pandemics, such as the coronavirus (or COVID-19), may result in, among other things, closing borders, disruptions to healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, cancellations, disruptions to supply chains and consumer activity, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact may last for extended periods.

◼

Information Technology and Operational Risk — Markets and market participants are increasingly reliant upon both publicly available and proprietary information data systems. Data imprecision, software or other technology malfunctions, programming inaccuracies, unauthorized use or access, and similar circumstances may impair the performance of these systems and may have an adverse impact upon a single issuer, a group of issuers, or the market at large. The information technology and other operational systems upon which the Fund’s service providers rely may be subject to cyber attack or other technological disruptions, and could otherwise disrupt the ability of these service providers to perform essential tasks for the Fund. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on either specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in the Fund being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or accurately price its investments.

Tracking Risk — The Fund’s return may not match the return of the Index for a number of reasons, including: the Fund incurs operating expenses not applicable to the Index and incurs costs in buying and selling securities; the Fund may not be fully invested at times; differences in the valuation of securities; and differences between the Fund’s portfolio and the Index resulting from legal restrictions, cost, or liquidity constraints. Market disruptions and regulatory restrictions could have an adverse effect on the Fund’s ability to adjust its exposure to the required levels in order to track the Index. Errors in index data, index computations and/or the construction of the Index in accordance with its methodology may occur from time to time and may not be identified and corrected by the index provider for a period of time or at all, which may have an adverse impact on the Fund and its shareholders.

9

Risk Factors

The Fund’s ability to track the return of the Index is affected by the fact that the Fund pays fees and transaction costs, while the Index does not; therefore, the Fund’s returns are likely to be lower than those of the Index. Tracking variance may also result from the impact of share purchases, redemptions and other factors not affecting the Index.

Additional Risk Factors. The Adviser may use several types of investment strategies in pursuing the Fund's overall investment objective. The following risks are those that the Adviser does not consider to be principal risks of the Fund. Additional risks are included in the Fund's SAI.

Investment Company Risk — The Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective may be directly related to the ability of other investment companies (including ETFs) held by the Fund to meet their investment objectives. In addition, shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the underlying investment companies. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.

Securities Lending Risk — The risk in lending portfolio securities, as with other extensions of credit, consists of the possibility of loss to the Fund due to (1) the inability of the borrower to return the securities, (2) a delay in receiving additional collateral to adequately cover any fluctuations in the value of securities on loan, (3) a delay in recovery of the securities, or (4) the loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. These events could trigger adverse tax consequences for the Fund. In addition, the Fund is responsible for any loss that might result from its investment of the borrower’s collateral. In determining whether to lend securities, the Adviser or the Fund’s securities lending agent will consider relevant facts and circumstances, including the creditworthiness of the borrower.

Organization and Management of the Fund

The Fund's Board of Trustees has the overall responsibility for overseeing the management of the Fund.

The Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the investment adviser to each of the Victory Funds pursuant to an investment management agreement. The Adviser oversees the operations of the Fund according to investment policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The Adviser is a New York corporation that is registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As of September 30, 2021, the Adviser managed and advised assets totaling in excess of $159.8 billion for individual and institutional clients. The Adviser’s principal address is 15935 La Cantera Parkway, San Antonio, TX 78256.

The Adviser is a diversified global asset manager comprised of multiple investment teams, referred to as investment franchises, each of which utilizes an independent approach to investing. The Adviser’s Victory Solutions platform oversees its rules-based investment strategies and is responsible for the day-to-day investment management of the Fund.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the Adviser was paid advisory fees, before waivers, at an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.

See “Fund Fees and Expenses” for information about any contractual agreement by the Adviser to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses with respect to the Fund. From time to time, the Adviser also may voluntarily waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in amounts exceeding those required to be waived or reimbursed under any contractual agreement that may be in place with respect to the Fund.

A discussion of the Board’s most recent considerations in approving the Advisory Agreement is included in the Fund’s semi-annual report for the period ended December 31.

Portfolio Management

Mannik Dhillon serves as President, VictoryShares and Solutions, for the Adviser and has been a portfolio manager of the Fund since May 2018. From 2015-2017, he served as the Adviser’s Head of Investment Solutions, Product, and Strategy. From 2010 to 2015, Mr. Dhillon served as a managing director and head of manager research with Wilshire Associates, where he evaluated asset managers and led strategic consulting engagements. Mr. Dhillon is a CFA and CAIA® charterholder.

The Fund's SAI provides additional information about the portfolio manager's method of compensation, other accounts he manages and any ownership interests he may have in the Fund.

Investing with the Victory Funds  

All you need to do to get started is to fill out an application.

If you are looking for a convenient way to open an account or to add money to an existing account, we can help. The sections that follow will serve as a guide to your investment with the Victory Funds. These sections describe many of the share classes currently offered by the Victory Funds. The section Choosing a Share Class will help you decide which share class it may be to your advantage to buy.

Keep in mind that Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. In addition, not all Victory Funds offer each class of shares described below, and therefore, certain classes may be discussed that are not necessarily offered by the Fund. The classes of shares that are offered by the Fund are those listed on the cover page designated with a ticker symbol. The Fund may also offer other share classes in different prospectuses.

This section of the Prospectus also describes how to open an account, how to access information about your account, and how to buy, exchange, and sell shares of a Victory Fund. Note, this information may vary if you invest through a third party such as a brokerage firm and will be dependent on that firm's policies and practices. Consult your Investment Professional for specific details.

We want to make it simple for you to do business with us. If you have questions about any of this information, please call your Investment Professional or one of our customer service representatives at 800-539-FUND. They will be happy to assist you.  

An Investment Professional is an investment consultant, salesperson, financial planner,

investment adviser, or trust officer who provides you with investment information.

Your Investment Professional also can help you decide which share class is best for you.

Investment Professionals and other financial intermediaries may charge fees for their services.

12

Share Price  

The daily NAV is useful to you as a shareholder because the NAV,

multiplied by the number of Fund shares you own, gives you the value of your investment.

The Fund calculates its share price, called its net asset value (“NAV”), each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”), which is normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event of an emergency or other disruption in trading on the NYSE, the Fund’s share price will be determined based upon the close of the NYSE. You may buy, exchange, and sell your shares on any business day at a price that is based on the NAV that is next calculated after you place your order. A business day is a day on which the NYSE is open.

To the extent the Fund’s investments include securities that are primarily traded in foreign markets, the value of those securities may change on days when shareholders are unable to purchase and redeem the Fund’s shares, such as on weekends or other days when the Fund does not price its shares.

The Fund prices its investments based on market value when market quotations are readily available. When these quotations are not readily available, the Fund will price its investments at fair value according to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. The Fund will fair value a security when:

◼

Trading in the security has been halted;

◼

The market quotation for the security is clearly erroneous due to a clerical error;

◼

The security’s liquidity decreases such that, in the Adviser's opinion, the market quotation has become stale; or

◼

An event occurs after the close of the trading market (but before the Fund’s NAV is calculated) that, in the Adviser’s opinion, materially affects the value of the security.

The use of fair value pricing may minimize arbitrage opportunities that attempt to exploit the differences between a security's market quotation and its fair value. The use of fair value pricing may not, however, always reflect a security’s actual market value in light of subsequent relevant information, and the security’s opening price on the next trading day may be different from the fair value price assigned to the security.

Each Victory Fund calculates the NAV of each share class by adding up the total value of the investments and other assets of that class, subtracting its liabilities, and then dividing that figure by the number of outstanding shares of the class.  

NAV=	Total Assets - Liabilities
	Number of Shares Outstanding

You may be able to find the Fund's NAV each day in The Wall Street Journal and other newspapers. Newspapers do not normally publish fund information until the fund reaches a specific number of shareholders or level of assets. You may also find the Fund's NAV by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting the Fund's website at VictoryFunds.com.

Share Classes

When you purchase shares of the Fund, you must choose a share class. The Victory Funds offer Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares. Each share class represents an interest in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes differ in the sales charges, if any, and expenses that

14

Choosing a Share Class

apply to your investment, allowing you and your Investment Professional to choose the class that best suits your investment needs. Not all Victory Funds offer all classes of shares, and some classes of shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. The Victory Funds may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

Deciding which share class best suits your investment needs depends on a number of factors that you should discuss with your Investment Professional, including: how long you expect to hold your investment, how much you intend to invest, and the total expenses associated with each share class.

The Fund reserves the right to change the eligibility criteria for purchasing a particular share class. For example, a class of shares may be available to purchase only by retirement plans or by institutional investors. The Fund may also waive any applicable eligibility criteria or investment minimums at its discretion.

The Fund or any class may be closed at any time for failure to achieve an economical level of assets or for other reasons. Certain financial intermediaries who hold shares on behalf of their customers impose fees when the amount of shares of a particular class falls below a minimum threshold. To the extent that the amount of shares falls below that threshold, the Fund reserves the right to liquidate the shares held in accounts maintained by the financial intermediary.

Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares  

For historical expense information, see the “Financial Highlights”

at the end of this Prospectus.

Class A shares are sold at their public offering price, which is the NAV plus any applicable initial sales charge, also referred to as the “front-end sales load.” The sales charge may be reduced or eliminated for larger purchases, as detailed below or as described under Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares. The investment levels required to obtain a reduced sales charge are commonly referred to as “breakpoints.”

All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through an intermediary specified in Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

In order to obtain a breakpoint discount, you must inform the Victory Funds or your Investment Professional at the time you purchase shares of the existence of the other Victory accounts or purchases of Victory Funds that are eligible to be linked for the purpose of calculating the initial sales charge. The Fund or your Investment Professional may ask you for records or other information about other Victory Funds held in your Victory accounts and any linked accounts, such as accounts opened with a different financial intermediary.

The current sales charge rates and breakpoint levels for Class A shares of the Fund are listed below:  

Your Investment in the Fund	Sales Charge as a % of Offering Price	Sales Charge as a % of Your Investment
Up to $99,999	2.25%	2.30%
$100,000 up to $249,999	1.75%	1.78%
$250,000 and above	0.00%	0.00%

Choosing a Share Class

Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares  

There are several ways you can combine multiple purchases of Class A shares of the Victory

Funds to take advantage of reduced sales charges and, in some cases, eliminate sales charges.

There are a number of ways you can reduce your sales charges, which we describe below. In order to obtain a Class A sales charge reduction or waiver, you must provide your financial intermediary or the Fund's transfer agent, at the time of purchase, with current information regarding shares of any Victory Funds held in other accounts. This information must include account statements or other records (including written representations from the intermediary holding the shares) that indicate that a sales charge was paid for shares of the Victory Funds held in: any accounts (e.g., retirement accounts) established (i) with the Victory Funds and your investment professional; (ii) with other financial intermediaries; and (iii) in the name of immediate family household members (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21).

The availability of a sales charge reduction or waiver discussed below will depend upon whether you purchase your shares directly from the Fund or through a financial intermediary. If you are eligible for a sales charge reduction because you own shares of other Victory Funds, you must notify the Fund or your financial intermediary at the time of purchase of any relationship or other facts qualifying you for sales charge reductions or waivers. Some intermediaries impose different policies for sales charge waivers and reductions. These variations are described in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. Except as described with respect to the intermediaries specified in Appendix A, all Class A shares are subject to the terms stated below. In order to obtain waivers and discounts that are not available through your intermediary, you must purchase Fund shares directly from the Fund or through another intermediary.

You can find additional information regarding sales charges and their reductions, free of charge, at vcm.com/policies, by clicking on Victory Portfolios' Mutual Funds Pricing Policies.

You may reduce or eliminate the sales charge applicable to Class A shares in a number of ways:

◼

Breakpoint - Purchase a sufficient amount to reach a breakpoint (see Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares above);

◼

Letter of Intent - If you anticipate purchasing $50,000 or more of Class A shares of the Fund, including any purchase of other Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), within a 13-month period, you may qualify for a sales charge breakpoint as though the total quantity were invested in one lump sum. In order to qualify for the reduced sales charge, you must submit a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “Letter”) within 90 days of the start of the purchases. Each investment you make after signing the Letter will be entitled to the sales charge applicable to the total investment indicated in the Letter. You must start with a minimum initial investment of at least 5.00% of the total amount you intend to purchase. A portion of the shares purchased under the Letter will be held in escrow until the total investment has been completed. In the event you do not complete your commitment set forth in the Letter in the time period specified, sufficient escrowed shares will be redeemed to pay any applicable front-end sales charges;

◼

Right of Accumulation - You may add the value of any other Victory Funds of any share class that you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), to the amount of your next Class A investment to determine if your additional investment will qualify for a sales charge breakpoint. The value of the other Victory Funds of any share class you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) will be calculated by using the greater of the current value or the original investment amount. You may be eligible for reduced sales charges on future purchases of Class A shares of the Fund after you have reached a new breakpoint. To determine your reduced sales charge, you can add the

16

Choosing a Share Class

value of your Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), (or those held by your spouse (including domestic partner) and your children under age 21), determined at the previous day’s NAV, to the amount of your new purchase, valued at the current offering price. To ensure that the reduced price will be received pursuant to the Fund’s Right of Accumulation, you or your Investment Professional must inform the Fund’s transfer agent that the Right applies each time shares are purchased and provide the transfer agent with sufficient information to permit confirmation of qualification;

◼

Combination Privilege - You may combine the value in accounts of multiple Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) and in accounts of household members of your immediate family (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21) to achieve a reduced sales charge on your added investment;

◼

Reinstatement Privilege - You may reinvest at NAV all or part of your redemption proceeds within 90 days of a redemption of Class A shares of the Fund;

◼

Waiver - The Victory Funds will completely waive the sales charge for Class A shares in the following cases:

◼

Purchases of $250,000 or more;

◼

Purchases by certain individuals associated with the Victory Funds or service providers (see “Eligibility of Individuals Associated with the Victory Funds and Fund Service Providers”);

◼

Purchases by registered broker-dealers, financial intermediaries or their agents or affiliates who have agreements with the Fund's distributor (“Distributor”), if the shares are purchased for their own account, purchased for retirement plans of their employees or sold to registered representatives or full-time employees (or their immediate families), provided that such purchase is for one of the foregoing types of accounts;

◼

Purchases for trust or other advisory accounts established with a financial institution and fee-based investment products or accounts;

◼

Reinvestment of proceeds from a liquidation distribution of Class A shares of a Victory Fund held in a deferred compensation plan, agency, trust, or custody account;

◼

Purchases by retirement plans, including Section 401 and 457 plans sponsored by a Section 501(c)(3) organization and certain non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements that operate in a similar manner to qualified plans. Investors nonetheless may be charged a fee if they effect transactions in Class A shares through a broker or agent;

◼

Purchases by participants in no transaction fee programs offered by certain broker-dealers (sometimes referred to as “supermarkets”);

◼

Purchases by certain financial intermediaries who offer shares to self-directed investment brokerage accounts that may or may not charge a transaction fee to its customers;

◼

Investors that have an investment account with the Adviser;

◼

Purchases by CMS Energy employees participating in a Victory prototype Roth IRA plan by way of payroll deduction from CMS Energy; and

◼

Individuals who reinvest the proceeds of redemptions from Class I, Class R6 or Class Y shares of a Victory Fund within 60 days of redemption.

You should inform the Fund or your Investment Professional at the time of purchase of the sales charge waiver category which you believe applies.

17

Choosing a Share Class

CDSC for Class A Shares

A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through the intermediaries specified in Appendix A.

CDSC for Class C Shares

You will pay a 1.00% CDSC on any Class C shares you sell within 12 months of purchase. The CDSC is based on the current value of the shares being sold or their NAV when purchased, whichever is less. There is no CDSC on shares you acquire by reinvesting your dividends or capital gains distributions. You may be eligible for reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. There is no CDSC imposed when you exchange your shares for Class C shares of another Victory Fund; however, your exchange is subject to the same CDSC schedule that applied to your original purchase.

An investor may, within 90 days of a redemption of Class C shares, reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds in the Class C shares of any Victory Fund at the NAV next computed after receipt by the transfer agent of the reinvestment order. Class C share proceeds reinvested do not result in a refund of any CDSC paid by the shareholder, but the reinvested shares will be treated as CDSC exempt upon reinvestment. The shareholder must ask the Distributor for such privilege at the time of reinvestment.

To keep your CDSC as low as possible, each time you sell shares we will first sell shares in your account that are not subject to a CDSC. If there are not enough of these to meet your sale, we will sell the shares in the order they were purchased.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares

No CDSC is imposed on redemptions of Class A and Class C shares in the following circumstances:

◼

To the extent that the shares redeemed:

◼

are no longer subject to the holding period for such shares;

◼

resulted from reinvestment of distributions; or

◼

were exchanged for shares of another Victory Fund as allowed by the Prospectus, provided that the shares acquired in such exchange or subsequent exchanges will continue to remain subject to the CDSC, if applicable, calculated from the original date of purchase until the applicable holding period expires. In determining whether the CDSC applies to each redemption, shares not subject to a CDSC are redeemed first;

◼

Following the death or post-purchase disability of:

◼

a registered shareholder on an account; or

◼

a settlor of a living trust, of shares held in the account at the time of death or initial determination of post-purchase disability;

◼

Distributions from individual retirement accounts, Section 403(b), Section 457 and Section 401 qualified plans, where redemptions result from:

Information About Fees

Distribution and Service Plans

In accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Trust has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class A, Class C and Class R shares of the Fund.

Under the Class A Distribution and Service Plan, the Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets of its Class A shares. Under the Class R Distribution and Service Plan, the Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.50% of its average daily net assets of its Class R shares. The fee is paid for general distribution services and for providing personal services to shareholders. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of Fund shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Under the Class C Distribution and Service Plan, the Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of its Class C shares. Of this amount, 0.75% of the Fund’s Class C shares average daily net assets will be paid for general distribution services and for selling Class C shares. The Fund will pay 0.25% of its Class C shares average daily net assets to compensate financial institutions that provide personal services to Class C shareholders of the Fund. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of the Fund’s Class C shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Because Rule 12b-1 fees are paid out of the Fund’s assets and on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

Other Payments to Financial Intermediaries

Except with respect to Class R6 shares, if you purchase Fund shares through an Investment Professional, a broker dealer, or other financial intermediary, the Fund may pay for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and/or similar administrative services. In addition, the Adviser (and its affiliates) may make substantial payments out of its own resources, including the profits from the advisory fees the Adviser receives from the Fund, to affiliated and unaffiliated dealers or other Investment Professionals and service providers for distribution, administrative and/or shareholder servicing activities. The Adviser also may reimburse the Distributor (or the Distributor's affiliates) for making these payments. Some of these distribution-related payments may be made to dealers or other Investment Professionals for marketing, promotional or related expenses; these payments are often referred to as “revenue sharing.” The Adviser (and its affiliates) also may pay fixed fees for the listing of a Fund on a broker-dealer’s or financial intermediary’s system. Such payments are not considered to be revenue sharing payments.

In some circumstances, these types of payments may create an incentive for a dealer or Investment Professional or its representatives to recommend or offer shares of the Victory Funds to its customers. You should ask your dealer or Investment Professional for more details about any such payments it receives.

21

Information About Fees

No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries from Fund assets, or from the resources of the Adviser or its affiliates on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares.

How to Buy Shares

Opening an Account

If you would like to open an account, you will first need to complete an Account Application.

You can obtain an Account Application by calling Victory Funds Customer Service at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863). You can also download an Account Application by visiting the Victory Funds' website, VictoryFunds.com, and clicking on the Victory Funds Account Application link. Send the completed Account Application, along with a check made payable to the Victory Funds, at the following address:

Victory Funds
P.O. Box 182593
Columbus, OH 43218-2593

You can also obtain an Account Application by contacting your Investment Professional. When you invest through an Investment Professional, the procedures for buying, selling, and exchanging shares and the account features and policies may differ. In addition to any limitations described in this Prospectus, an Investment Professional or other intermediary may also place other limits on your ability to use the services of the Fund. Sometimes an Investment Professional will charge you for its services. This fee will be in addition to, and unrelated to, the fees and expenses charged by the Fund.

Mutual funds must obtain and verify information that identifies investors opening new accounts. If the Fund is unable to collect the required information, you may not be able to open your account. Additional details about the Fund's Customer Identification Program are available in the section “Important Fund Policies.”

If you participate in a retirement plan that offers one of the Victory Funds as an option, please consult your employer for information on how to purchase shares of the Victory Funds through the plan, including any restrictions or limitations that may apply.

Paying for Your Initial Purchase

If you wish to make an investment directly into the Victory Funds, make your check payable to the “Victory Funds.” All checks must be drawn on U.S. banks. If your check is returned as uncollectible for any reason, you will be charged for any resulting fees and/or losses. The Fund does not accept cash, money orders, traveler’s checks, credit card convenience checks, or third party checks. Additionally, bank starter checks are not accepted for the shareholder’s initial investment into the Fund. All payments must be denominated in U.S. dollars.

Minimum Investments

If you would like to buy Class A or Class C shares, the minimum investment required to open an account is $2,500 ($1,000 for IRA accounts), with additional investments of at least $50. If you would like to buy Class I, Class R, Class R6 or Class Y shares, you must be an Eligible Investor, as discussed in the section Choosing a Share Class — Eligibility Requirements to Purchase. Eligible Investors may be subject to a minimum investment amount as detailed in that section.

For Class C shares, individual purchases of $250,000 and above will automatically be made in Class A shares.

If your account falls below the minimum investment amount, we may ask you to reestablish the minimum investment. If you do not do so within 60 days, we may close your account and send you the value of your account.

The minimum investment required to open an account may be waived or lowered for employees and immediate family members of the employees, of the Adviser, the Administrator, and their affiliates. In addition, the minimum investment required may be waived when the Fund is purchased through an Advisory Program, within qualified retirement plans or in other similar circumstances. Although the

23

How to Buy Shares

Fund may sometimes waive the minimum investment, when it does so, it always reserves the right to reject initial investments under the minimum at its discretion.

There is no minimum investment required to open an account or for additional investments in Victory Simple IRAs.

The Fund reserves the right to change the criteria for eligible investors and the investment minimums.

How to Exchange Shares  

There may be limits on the ability to exchange between certain Victory Funds. You can

obtain a list of Victory Funds available for exchange by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting

VictoryFunds.com

The shares of any class of the Fund may be exchanged for the shares of any other class offered by the Fund or the same class, or any other class of any Victory Fund, either through your Investment Professional or directly through the Fund, subject to the conditions described below:

◼

Exchanges are subject to any CDSC, minimum investment limitation or eligibility requirements described in the applicable Prospectus and SAI. You may be required to provide sufficient information to establish eligibility to exchange into a new share class.

◼

To exchange with a Victory Fund, the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into must be eligible for exchange with your Fund.

◼

Shares of the Victory Fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in your state of residence.

If you have questions about these, or any of the Fund's other exchange policies, please consult Victory Customer Service or your Investment Professional before requesting an exchange.

Before exchanging, you should read the Prospectus of the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into, which may be subject to different risks, fees and expenses.

Class C Share Conversion

Class C shares of the Fund will automatically convert to Class A shares in the month following the eight-year anniversary date of the purchase of the Class C shares. Your financial intermediary may have a conversion schedule that is shorter than eight years. Class C conversions will be effected at the relative NAV of each such class without the imposition of any sales charge, fee or other charge.

You may be able to voluntarily convert your Class C shares before the stated anniversary to a different share class of the same Fund that has a lower total annual operating expense ratio provided certain conditions are met. This voluntary conversion feature is intended for shares held through a financial intermediary offering a fee-based or wrap fee program that has an agreement with the Adviser or the Distributor specific for this purpose. Generally, Class C shares are not eligible for conversion until the applicable CDSC period has expired. Please contact your financial intermediary for additional information.

Processing Your Voluntary Exchange/Conversion

If your exchange or conversion request is received and accepted by the Fund, an Investment Professional or other intermediary by the close of trading as described in the section entitled, “Share Price,” then your request will be processed the same day. If received after the close of trading, your request will be processed on the next business day. Please contact your financial intermediary regarding the tax consequences of any exchange or conversion.

Exchanges will occur at the respective NAVs of the Fund's share classes involved in the exchange next calculated after receipt and acceptance of your exchange request in good order, plus any applicable sales charge described in the Prospectus. Share class conversions will be based on the respective NAV of each class as of the trade date of the conversion. Consequently, you may receive fewer shares or more shares than originally owned, depending on that day’s NAVs.

Requesting an Exchange

You can exchange shares of the Fund by telephone, by mail or via the Internet. You cannot exchange into an account with a different registration or tax identification number.

◼

By Telephone

26

How to Exchange Shares

Unless you indicate otherwise on the account application, Victory Customer Service will be authorized to accept exchange instructions received by telephone.

◼

By Mail

Send a letter of instruction signed by all registered owners or their legal representatives to the Victory Funds.

◼

Via the Internet

You may also exchange shares via the Internet at VictoryFunds.com if you are a registered user.

Other Exchange Rules You Should Know

The Fund may refuse any exchange purchase request if the Adviser determines that the request is associated with a market timing strategy. The Fund may terminate or modify the exchange privilege at any time upon 60 days’ notice to shareholders.

An exchange of Fund shares for shares of another Victory Fund constitutes a sale for tax purposes unless the exchange is made within an IRA or other tax-deferred account.

For information on how to exchange shares of the Fund that were purchased through your employer’s retirement plan, including any restrictions and charges that the plan may impose, please consult your employer.

27

How to Sell Shares  

There are a number of convenient ways to sell your shares. You can use the same mailing

addresses listed for purchases.

If your redemption request is received in good order by the close of trading on the NYSE, your redemption will be processed the same day. Your redemption will not be processed until the next business day if it is received after the close of trading on the NYSE. You cannot redeem your shares at www.VictoryFunds.com.

 

BY TELEPHONE

The easiest way to redeem shares is by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863). When you fill out your original application, be sure to check the box marked “Telephone Authorization.” Then when you are ready to sell, call and tell us which one of the following options you would like to use:

◼

Mail a check to the address of record;

◼

Wire funds to a previously designated domestic financial institution;

◼

Mail a check to a previously designated alternate address; or

◼

Electronically transfer your redemption via ACH to a previously designated domestic financial institution.

The transfer agent records all telephone calls for your protection and takes measures to verify the identity of the caller. If the transfer agent properly acts on telephone instructions and follows reasonable procedures to ensure against unauthorized transactions, none of the Trust, its servicing agents, the Adviser, or the transfer agent will be responsible for any losses. If the transfer agent does not follow these procedures, it may be liable to you for losses resulting from unauthorized instructions.

If there is an unusual amount of market activity and you cannot reach the transfer agent or your Investment Professional by telephone, consider placing your order by mail.

 

BY MAIL

Use the regular U.S. mail or overnight mail address to redeem shares. Send us a letter of instruction indicating your Fund account number, amount of redemption, and where to send the proceeds. A Medallion signature guarantee is required for the following redemption requests:

◼

Your account registration has changed within the last 15 business days;

◼

The check is not being mailed to the address on your account;

◼

The check is not being made payable to the owner of the account;

◼

The redemption proceeds are being transferred to another Victory Fund account with a different registration; or

◼

The check or wire is being sent to a different bank account than was previously designated.

You can get a Medallion signature guarantee from a financial institution — such as a commercial bank, broker dealer, credit union, clearing agency, or savings bank — that is a member of a Medallion signature guarantee program.  

BY WIRE

If you want to receive your proceeds by wire, you must establish a Fund account that will accommodate wire transactions. If you call before the close of trading on the NYSE, your funds will be wired on the next business day.  

BY ACH

Normally, your redemption will be processed on the same day, but will be processed on the next day if received after the close of trading on the NYSE. It will be transferred by ACH as long as the transfer is to a domestic bank.

28

How to Sell Shares

Systematic Withdrawal Plan

If you check this box on the Account Application or on the Account Maintenance Form, we will send monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payments to the person you designate. The minimum withdrawal is $25, and you must have a balance of $5,000 or more at the time you establish the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If the payment is to be sent to an account of yours, we will need a voided check to activate this feature. If the payment is to be made to an address different from your account address, we will need a Medallion signature guaranteed letter of instruction. You should be aware that each withdrawal may be a taxable transaction. Also, each withdrawal reduces your account balance, and eventually your account balance may be depleted. However, you cannot automatically close your account using the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If your balance falls below the initial purchase minimum, we may ask you to bring the account back to the minimum balance. If you decide not to increase your account to the minimum balance, your account may be closed and the proceeds mailed to you.

Additional Information About Redemptions

◼

Redemption proceeds from the sale of Fund shares purchased by a check or through ACH will be held until the purchase check or ACH has cleared, which will take up to 10 business days.

◼

We typically expect to send the proceeds from your share redemption within one business day after we execute your order, but we may take up to seven business days to send redemption proceeds, regardless of payment type. When you sell shares through your financial intermediary, you can ask the intermediary to tell you when you can expect to receive the proceeds of your redemption.

◼

The Fund may suspend your right to redeem your shares in the following circumstances:

◼

During non-routine closings of the NYSE;

◼

When the SEC determines either that trading on the NYSE is restricted or that an emergency prevents the sale or valuation of the Fund’s securities; or

◼

When the SEC orders a suspension to protect the Fund’s shareholders.

◼

The Fund typically uses cash and cash equivalents held in its portfolio or sells portfolio assets to meet redemption requests. In unusual circumstances or under stressed market conditions, the Fund may use other methods to raise cash to meet redemption requests. For example, the Fund may draw funds from a line of credit or borrow available cash held by other Victory Funds under an “interfund lending program” in reliance on an exemptive order from the SEC.

◼

The Fund will pay redemptions by any one shareholder during any 90-day period in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1.00% of the Fund’s net assets. The Fund reserves the right to pay the remaining portion “in kind,” that is, in portfolio securities rather than cash. Securities received pursuant to an in-kind redemption are subject to market risk until sold and may be subject to brokerage and other fees.

◼

If you choose to have your redemption proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the redemption check to you or the check remains outstanding for more than six months, the Fund reserves the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed redemption checks.

29

Distributions and Taxes  

Buying a dividend. You should check the Fund's distribution schedule before you invest.

If you buy shares of the Fund shortly before it makes a distribution,

some of your investment may come back to you as a taxable distribution.

As a shareholder, you are entitled to your share of net income and capital gains on the Fund's investments. The Fund passes its earnings along to investors in the form of dividends. Dividends paid by the Fund represent the net income from dividends and interest earned on investments after expenses. The Fund will distribute short-term gains, as necessary, and if the Fund makes a long-term capital gain distribution, it is normally paid once a year.

Ordinarily, the Fund declares and pays dividends quarterly. However, the Fund may not always pay a dividend or distribution for a given period. Each class of shares declares and pays dividends separately.

Distributions can be received in one of the following ways. Please check with your Investment Professional if you are unsure of which option is right for you.

Reinvestment Option

You can have distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of your Fund. If you do not indicate another choice on your Account Application, you will be assigned this option automatically.

Cash Option

If you elect to receive your distributions by check, and the distribution amount is $25 or less, the amount will automatically be reinvested in the Fund. Otherwise, a check will be mailed to you no later than seven days after the dividend payment date. If you choose to have your distribution proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the distribution check to you or the check remains outstanding for at least six months, the distribution option on your account will default to the reinvestment option as described above. The Fund reserves the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution checks.

Income Earned Option

You can automatically reinvest your dividends in additional Fund shares and have your capital gains paid in cash, or reinvest capital gains and have your dividends paid in cash.

Directed Distributions Option

In most cases, you can automatically reinvest distributions in shares of another Victory Fund. If you reinvest your distributions in a different Victory Fund, you will pay a sales charge on the amount of reinvested distributions.

Directed Bank Account Option

In most cases, you can automatically transfer distributions to your bank checking or savings account. Under normal circumstances, the transfer agent will transfer your distributions within seven days of the dividend payment date. The bank account must have a registration identical to that of your Fund account.  

Your choice of distribution should be set up on the original Account Application.

If you would like to change the option you selected, please call 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863).

Distributions and Taxes

Important Information About Taxes  

The tax information in this Prospectus is provided as general information. You should

consult your own tax adviser about the tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

The Fund expects to pay no federal income tax on the earnings and capital gains it distributes to shareholders.

◼

Qualified dividend income received from the Fund by noncorporate shareholders will be taxed at long-term capital gain rates to the extent attributable to qualified dividend income received by the Fund, subject to certain holding period requirements. Nonqualified dividends, dividends received by corporate shareholders and dividends from the Fund’s short-term capital gains are taxable as ordinary income. Dividends from the Fund’s long-term capital gains are taxable as long-term capital gains.

◼

You will pay tax on dividends from the Fund whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund.

◼

Dividends from the Fund that are attributable to interest on certain U.S. government obligations, if any, may be exempt from certain state and local income taxes. The extent to which ordinary dividends are attributable to these U.S. government obligations will be provided on the tax statements you receive from the Fund.

◼

An exchange of the Fund’s shares for shares of another Victory Fund will be treated as a sale. When you sell or exchange shares of the Fund, you generally will recognize any gain or loss.

◼

An exchange of one class of the Fund’s shares for shares of another class of the same Fund generally constitutes a nontaxable exchange.

◼

Distributions from the Fund and gains from the disposition of your shares may also be subject to state and local income tax.

◼

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (which includes dividends and gain recognized on a disposition of shares) of certain U.S. individuals, estates, and trusts.

◼

Certain dividends paid to you in January will be taxable as if they had been paid to you the previous December.

◼

Tax statements will be mailed from the Fund by mid-February showing the amounts and tax status of distributions made to you in the prior calendar year.

◼

Because your tax treatment depends on your purchase price and tax position, you should keep your regular account statements for use in determining your tax.

◼

The Fund is generally required by law to provide you and the Internal Revenue Service with certain cost basis information related to the sale or redemption of any of your shares in the Fund acquired on or after January 1, 2012, (including distributions that are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund).

◼

The Fund may be required to withhold tax from dividends and redemption proceeds if you fail to give your correct social security or taxpayer identification number, fail to make required certifications, or the Fund is notified by the Internal Revenue Service that backup withholding is required.

◼

If you are a nonresident alien individual, foreign trust or estate, foreign corporation or foreign partnership, the Fund’s ordinary income dividends may be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

Under the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,” unless certain foreign entities comply with certain IRS requirements that generally require them to report information regarding U.S. persons investing in, or holding accounts with, such entities, a 30% U.S. withholding tax may

31

Distributions and Taxes

apply to dividends paid by the Fund to such entities. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

You should review the more detailed discussion of federal income tax considerations in the SAI and consult your tax adviser regarding the federal, state, local, or foreign tax consequences resulting from your investment in the Fund.

◼

The Fund may provide estimated capital gain distribution information through the website at VictoryFunds.com.

Important Fund Policies

Customer Identification Program

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations.

As a result, the Victory Funds must obtain the following information for each person who opens a new account:

◼

Name;

◼

Date of birth (for individuals);

◼

Residential or business street address (although post office boxes are still permitted for mailing); and

◼

Social security number, taxpayer identification number, or other identifying number.

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities. Federal law prohibits the Victory Funds and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Victory Funds may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified. The Victory Funds may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares will be redeemed at the NAV next calculated after the account is closed.

Account Maintenance Information

For the following non-financial transactions, the Victory Funds require proof that your signature authorizing a transaction is authentic. This verification can be provided in all cases by either a Signature Validation Program (SVP) stamp or a Medallion signature guarantee (MSG). In some instances a Notary Public stamp is an acceptable alternative. As with the MSG, a SVP stamp can also be obtained from a financial institution that is a member of the SVP program.

Market Timing

The Victory Funds discourage frequent purchases and redemptions of Fund shares (market timing). Market timing allows investors to take advantage of market inefficiencies, sometimes to the disadvantage of other shareholders. Market timing increases Fund expenses to all shareholders by increasing portfolio turnover. In addition, market timing could potentially dilute share value for all other shareholders by requiring the Fund to hold more cash than it normally would.

33

Important Fund Policies

The Fund's Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures with respect to market timing. In order to prevent or minimize market timing, the Fund will:

◼

Employ “fair value” pricing, as described in this Prospectus under Share Price, to minimize the discrepancies between a security’s market quotation and its perceived market value, which often gives rise to market timing activity; and

◼

Monitor for suspected market timing based on “short-term transaction” activity, that is, a purchase or redemption of the Fund and, as applicable, a subsequent redemption or purchase of the same Fund, or an exchange of all or part of that same Fund.

In monitoring for market timing activity, we consider, among other things, the frequency of your trades and whether you acquired your Fund shares directly through the transfer agent or whether you combined your trades with a group of shareholders in an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary.

Frequent trading by a shareholder is generally a characteristic of market timing. Therefore, any account in which Fund shares are acquired directly through the transfer agent, or where the Fund can adequately identify the shareholder, with a history of three short-term transactions within 90 days or less is suspected of market timing and the shareholder’s trading privileges (other than redemption of Fund shares) will be suspended.

We may make exceptions to the “short-term transaction” policy for certain types of transactions if, in the opinion of the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, the transactions do not represent short-term or excessive trading or are not abusive or harmful to the Fund, such as, but not limited to, systematic transactions, required minimum retirement distributions, transactions initiated by the Fund or administrator and transactions by certain qualified funds-of-funds.

If you acquired shares through an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary (such as investment advisers, broker-dealers, third-party administrators or insurance companies), and market timing is suspected, different purchase and exchange limitations may apply. We may rely upon a financial intermediary’s policy to deter short-term or excessive trading (i) if we believe that the financial intermediary’s policy is reasonably designed to detect and deter transactions that are not in the best interests of the Fund, or (ii) if we receive an undertaking from the financial intermediary to enforce short-term or excessive trading policies on behalf of the Fund that provide a substantially similar level of protection for the Fund against such transactions. If you hold your Fund shares through a financial intermediary, you are advised to consult the intermediary to determine what purchase and exchange limitations apply to your account.

We reserve the right to reject or cancel a purchase or exchange order for any reason without prior notice. We will deny your request to purchase or exchange your shares if we believe that the transaction is part of a market timing strategy.

The Fund's market timing policies and procedures may be modified or terminated at any time under the oversight of the Board of Trustees.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure

A description of the Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Fund's portfolio securities is available in the Fund's SAI, which is available upon request and on the Fund's website at VictoryFunds.com.

Important Fund Policies

Performance

The Victory Funds may advertise the performance of the Fund by comparing it to other mutual funds with similar objectives and policies. Performance information also may appear in various publications. Any fees charged by Investment Professionals may not be reflected in these performance calculations.

Edward D. Jones & Co (”Edward Jones“)

Clients of Edward Jones (also referred to as “shareholders”) purchasing fund shares on the Edward Jones commission and fee-based platforms are eligible only for the following sales charge discounts (also referred to as “breakpoints”) and waivers, which can differ from discounts and waivers described elsewhere in the Fund’s Prospectus or statement of additional information (”SAI“) or through another

broker-dealer. In all instances, it is the shareholder’s responsibility to inform Edward Jones at the time of purchase of any relationship, holdings of the Victory Funds, or other facts qualifying the purchaser for discounts or waivers. Edward Jones can ask for documentation of such circumstance. Shareholders should contact Edward Jones if they have questions regarding their eligibility for these discounts and waivers.

Breakpoints - Breakpoint pricing, otherwise known as volume pricing, at dollar thresholds as described in the prospectus.

◼

Rights of Accumulation (“ROA”)

◼

The applicable sales charge on a purchase of Class A shares is determined by taking into account all share classes (except certain money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) of the Victory Funds held by the shareholder or in an account grouped by Edward Jones with other accounts for the purpose of providing certain pricing considerations (“pricing groups”). If grouping assets as a shareholder, this includes all share classes held on the Edward Jones platform and/or held on another platform. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the ROA calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Money market funds are included only if such shares were sold with a sales charge at the time of purchase or acquired in exchange for shares purchased with a sales charge.

◼

ROA is determined by calculating the higher of cost minus redemptions or market value (current shares x NAV).

◼

The employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan may elect to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping as opposed to including all share classes at a shareholder or pricing group level.

◼

Letter of Intent (“LOI”)

◼

Through a LOI, shareholders can receive the sales charge and breakpoint discounts for purchases shareholders intend to make over a 13-month period from the date Edward Jones receives the LOI. The LOI is determined by calculating the higher of cost or market value of qualifying holdings at LOI initiation in combination with the value that the shareholder intends to buy over a 13-month period to calculate the front-end sales charge and any breakpoint discounts. Each purchase the shareholder makes during that 13-month period will receive the sales charge and breakpoint discount that applies to the total amount. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the LOI calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Purchases made before the LOI is received by Edward Jones are not adjusted under the LOI and will not reduce the sales charge previously paid. Sales charges will be adjusted if LOI is not met.

◼

If the employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan has elected to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping, LOIs will also be at the plan-level and may only be established by the employer.

Sales Charge Waivers - Sales charges are waived for the following shareholders and in the following situations:

◼

Associates of Edward Jones and its affiliates and their family members who are in the same pricing group (as determined by Edward Jones under its policies and procedures) as the associate. This waiver will continue for the remainder of the associate’s life if the associate retires from Edward Jones in good-standing and remains in good standing pursuant to Edward Jones' policies and procedures.

◼

Shares purchased in an Edward Jones fee-based program.

◼

Shares purchased through reinvestment of capital gains distributions and dividend reinvestment.

45

Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries

◼

Shares purchased from the proceeds of redeemed shares of the same fund family so long as the following conditions are met: 1) the proceeds are from the sale of shares within 60 days of the purchase, and 2) the sale and purchase are made in the same share class and the same account or the purchase is made in an individual retirement account with proceeds from liquidations in a non-retirement account.

◼

Shares exchanged into Class A shares from another share class so long as the exchange is into the same fund and was initiated at the discretion of Edward Jones. Edward Jones is responsible for any remaining CDSC due to the fund company, if applicable. Any future purchases are subject to the applicable sales charge as disclosed in the prospectus.

◼

Exchanges from Class C shares to Class A shares of the same fund, generally, in the 84th month following the anniversary of the purchase date or earlier at the discretion of Edward Jones.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (“CDSC”) Waivers

◼

Death or disability of the shareholder.

Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 0.95%, 1.70%, 0.60%, 0.55% and 0.70% of the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R6 and Class Y shares, respectively, through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating

1

Trivalent International Fund — Core Equity Summary

expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 666	$ 1,023	$ 1,403	$ 2,466
Class C	$ 273	$ 2,592	$ 4,654	$ 8,578
Class I	$61	$369	$698	$1,631
Class R6	$56	$274	$509	$1,184
Class Y	$72	$329	$607	$1,400

The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class C	$173	$2,592	$4,654	$8,578

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 47% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund's investment objective by investing primarily in securities of companies in countries represented in the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (“Index”), but may also invest in companies from other countries. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's assets will be invested in equity securities.

The Adviser employs a bottom-up investment approach that emphasizes individual stock selection. The Adviser's investment process uses a combination of quantitative and traditional qualitative, fundamental analysis to identify attractive stocks with low relative price multiples, positive trends in earnings forecasts, high profitability and companies with a strong or positively trending environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) profile. The stock selection process is designed to produce a diversified portfolio that, relative to the Index, tends to have a below-average price-to-earnings ratio, above-average earnings growth trend and above-average return on invested capital. ESG investing considerations are not a primary or exclusive factor, but rather an additional inclusive consideration to the Adviser's process.

The Fund's investment allocation to countries and sectors tends to approximate the country and sector allocations of the Index, which may focus its exposure in one or more countries, regions or sectors. The Index captures large and mid-cap representation across 22 of 23 developed markets countries (excluding the United States) and 27 emerging markets countries. The Index covers approximately 85% of the global equity opportunity set outside the United States. The Fund normally invests in a minimum of 10 countries.

Trivalent International Fund — Core Equity Summary

There is no limit on the market capitalization in which the Fund may invest; therefore, the Fund's investments may include small-, mid- and large-capitalization companies.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Emerging Markets Risk — The risks related to investing in foreign securities are generally greater with respect to securities of companies that conduct their business activities in emerging markets or whose securities are traded principally in emerging markets. The risks of investing in emerging markets include the risks of illiquidity, increased price volatility, smaller market capitalizations, limited reliable access to capital, less government regulation (including limitations on the available rights and remedies), market manipulation concerns, less extensive and less frequent recordkeeping, accounting, financial and other reporting requirements, risk of loss resulting from problems in share registration and custody, risks related to foreign investment structures, substantial economic and political disruptions and the nationalization of foreign deposits or assets.

Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- and mid-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

Large-Capitalization Stock Risk — The securities of large-capitalization companies may underperform the securities of smaller-capitalization companies or the market as a whole. The growth rate of larger, more established companies may lag those of smaller companies, especially during periods of economic expansion.

Trivalent International Fund — Core Equity Summary

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

The performance figures for Class A, C, I and Y shares for periods ending on or before October 31, 2014 reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, I and Y shares of the Munder International Fund — Core Equity, a series of Munder Series Trust (the

Management of the Fund

Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. The portfolio managers jointly and primarily responsible for day-to-day management of the Fund are members of the Adviser’s Trivalent Investments (“Trivalent”) investment franchise.

Portfolio Managers 

	Title	Tenure with the Fund
Peter S. Carpenter, CFA	Senior Portfolio Manager	Since 2007
Jeffrey R. Sullivan, CFA	Senior Portfolio Manager	Since 2007

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares 

Investment Minimums	Class A	Class C	Class I	Class R6	Class Y
Minimum Initial Investment	$2,500	$2,500	$2,000,000	None	$1,000,000
Minimum Subsequent Investments	$50	$50	None	None	None

For Class A  and Class C shares a $1,000 minimum initial purchase amount and a $50 minimum subsequent purchase amount apply for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), gift/transfer to minor accounts, and purchases through automatic investment plans.

You may redeem your shares on any day the Fund is open for business. Redemption requests may be made by telephone (with prior appropriate approval) or by mail.

When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value (“NAV”) after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services for investments in all classes except Class R6. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Victory Capital Management Inc., the Fund’s investment adviser, (“Adviser”) has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding certain items such as interest, taxes and brokerage commissions) do not exceed 1.35%, 2.10%, 0.95%, 1.10% and 1.10% of the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R6 and Class Y shares, respectively, through at least October 31, 2022. The Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to

the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Trivalent International Small-Cap Fund Summary

Example:

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$ 706	$ 1,040	$ 1,396	$ 2,395
Class C	$ 315	$ 728	$ 1,268	$ 2,743
Class I	$99	$356	$633	$1,424
Class R6	$107	$334	$579	$1,283
Class Y	$114	$362	$630	$1,395

The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.  

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class C	$215	$728	$1,268	$2,743

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

Portfolio Turnover:

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 64% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategy

The Adviser pursues the Fund's investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of companies principally in countries represented in the S&P® Developed ex-U.S. SmallCap Index (“Index”).

Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's assets will be invested in securities of small-capitalization companies. The Adviser considers any company with a market capitalization at the time of purchase that is within such country's smallest 15% based on market capitalization to be a small-capitalization company. The size of companies in the Index changes with market conditions and the composition of the Index.

The Adviser employs a bottom-up investment approach that emphasizes individual stock selection. The Adviser's investment process uses a combination of quantitative and traditional qualitative, fundamental analysis to identify attractive stocks with low relative price multiples, positive trends in earnings forecasts, high profitability and companies with a strong or positively trending environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) profile. The stock selection process is designed to produce a diversified portfolio that, relative to the Index, tends to have a below-average price-to-earnings ratio and an above-average earnings growth trend and above average return on

Trivalent International Small-Cap Fund Summary

invested capital. ESG investing considerations are not a primary or exclusive factor, but rather an additional inclusive consideration to the Adviser's process.

The Fund's investment allocation to countries and sectors tends to approximate the country and sector allocations of the Index, which concentrates its exposure in one or more countries, regions or sectors. The Index consists of the stocks representing the lowest 15% of float-adjusted market capitalization in each country other than the U.S. represented in the S&P® Developed Broad Market Index (BMI). The S&P® Developed BMI includes all listed shares of companies from 24 developed countries with float-adjusted market capitalizations of at least US$100 million and annual trading value of at least US$50 million. The Fund normally invests in a minimum of 10 countries.

Principal Risks

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:

Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.

Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.

Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.

Small-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Trivalent International Small-Cap Fund Summary

Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.

Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.

You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.

By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Investment Performance

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.

Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

The performance figures for Class A, C, I, R6 and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, I, R6 and Y shares of the Munder International Small-Cap Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the

expenses of the Munder International Small-Cap Fund.

Trivalent International Small-Cap Fund Summary

Management of the Fund

Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. The portfolio managers jointly and primarily responsible for day-to-day management of the Fund are members of the Adviser’s Trivalent Investments (“Trivalent”) investment franchise.

Portfolio Managers 

	Title	Tenure with the Fund
Daniel B. LeVan, CFA	Chief Investment Officer	Since 2007
John W. Evers, CFA	Senior Portfolio Manager	Since 2007

Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares 

Investment Minimums	Class A	Class C	Class I	Class R6	Class Y
Minimum Initial Investment	$2,500	$2,500	$2,000,000	None	$1,000,000
Minimum Subsequent Investments	$50	$50	None	None	None

For Class A  and Class C shares a $1,000 minimum initial purchase amount and a $50 minimum subsequent purchase amount apply for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), gift/transfer to minor accounts, and purchases through automatic investment plans.

You may redeem your shares on any day the Fund is open for business. Redemption requests may be made by telephone (with prior appropriate approval) or by mail.

When you buy and redeem shares, the Fund will price your transaction at the next-determined net asset value (“NAV”) after the Fund receives your request in good order, which means that your request contains all the required documentation, and that all documents contain required signatures or signature guarantees from a financial institution.

Tax Information

The Fund’s distributions are taxable whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund, and will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, unless you are investing through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account. Taxes may be imposed on withdrawals from tax-deferred arrangements.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries

If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and its related companies may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services for investments in all classes except Class R6. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its financial advisor to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your financial advisor or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

Additional Fund Information  

Victory Capital Management Inc., which we refer to as the “Adviser”

throughout the Prospectus, manages each Fund.

The Victory Trivalent International Fund — Core Equity and Victory Trivalent International Small-Cap Fund (the “Funds”) are each managed by the Adviser, who also manages other funds, each having distinct investment management objectives, strategies, risks, and policies. Together, these funds are referred to in this Prospectus as the “Victory Funds” or, more simply, the “Funds.”

The following section describes additional information about the principal investment strategy the Funds will use under normal market conditions to pursue their investment objective, as well as any secondary strategies the Funds may use, and the related risks. This Prospectus does not attempt to describe all of the various investment techniques and types of investments that the Adviser may use in managing the Funds. The Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) includes more information about the Funds, their investments, and the related risks. Under adverse, unstable or abnormal market conditions, a Fund may be unable to pursue or achieve its investment objective and, for temporary purposes, may invest some or all of its assets in a variety of instruments or assets, including high-quality fixed-income securities, cash and cash equivalents. For cash management purposes, each Fund may hold all or a portion of its assets in cash, short-term money market instruments or shares of other investment companies. These positions may reduce the benefit from any upswing in the market, cause a Fund to fail to meet its investment objective and increase a Fund's expenses.

The Adviser employs a bottom-up investment approach that emphasizes individual stock selection. The Adviser's investment process uses a combination of quantitative and traditional qualitative, fundamental analysis to identify attractive stocks with low relative price multiples, high profitability, and positive trends in earnings forecasts. The Adviser incorporates ESG considerations into both its quantitative and fundamental analysis. When evaluating a company’s business lines and management team, the Adviser looks for companies with a strong or positively trending ESG profile, taking into account sustainable investing factors identified from third-party research available industry information and data, management’s disclosure, and discussions with management, among other things, into account. ESG investing principles and considerations are not a primary or exclusive factor, but rather an additional inclusive consideration to the Adviser's process.

The Adviser regularly reviews the Fund’s investments and will sell a security if the Adviser believes there has been a deterioration in the rank of the security in accordance with the Adviser’s process, the security’s valuation has become unattractive relative to other stocks in the universe or other available investments are considered to be more attractive.

Each Fund’s investment objective and policy to invest at least 80% of its assets in the type of securities suggested by the Fund's name is non-fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval upon at least 60 days’ written notice to shareholders. For purposes of a Fund’s 80% investment policy, “assets” means the Fund’s net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, but exclusive of any collateral held from securities lending.

Investments

The following describes the types of securities each Fund may purchase under normal market conditions to achieve its principal investment strategy. The Funds will not necessarily buy all of the securities listed below.

Foreign Securities

Can include common stock and convertible preferred stock of non-U.S. corporations. Also may include American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs), which are receipts issued by a bank or trust company and evidence ownership of underlying securities issued by foreign corporations, and ETFs that invest in foreign corporations.

Convertible Preferred Stock

A class of stock that pays dividends at a specified rate, has preference over common stock in the payment of dividends and the liquidation of assets, and is convertible into common stock.

Additional Fund Strategies. The Adviser may use other types of investment strategies in pursuing each Fund's overall investment objective. The following describes the types of securities that the Adviser may purchase or investment techniques the Adviser may employ that are not considered to be a part of the Funds' principal investment strategies. Additional securities and techniques are described in the Funds' SAI.

Derivatives

From time to time, a Fund may invest in derivatives, which are financial contracts whose value is based on an underlying security or asset, a currency exchange rate, an interest rate or a market index. Many types of instruments representing a wide range of potential risks and rewards are derivatives, including but not limited to futures contracts, options on futures contracts, options, swaps and forward currency exchange contracts. A Fund may, but is not required to, use index futures for cash management (attempting to remain fully invested while maintaining liquidity) or to gain exposure to an investment in a manner other than investing in the asset directly. The Funds will not use derivatives for speculative purposes.

Forward Foreign-Currency Exchange Contracts

Contracts that attempt to eliminate currency exposure between the time of a securities transaction and settlement of that transaction. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement to buy or sell a country’s currency at a specific price on a specific date, usually 30, 60, or 90 days in the future. In other words, the contract guarantees an exchange rate on a given date.

Investment Companies

A Fund may invest in securities of other investment companies, including ETFs, if those companies invest in securities consistent with the Fund's investment objective and policies. ETFs are investment companies the shares of which are bought and sold on a securities exchange.

Securities Lending

To enhance the return on its portfolio, a Fund may lend portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and financial institutions to realize additional income under guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees. Each loan will be secured continuously by collateral in the form of cash, securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities.

Emerging Markets Risk — There are greater risks involved in investing in emerging market countries than those associated with investment in developed foreign markets. The risks of investing in foreign securities generally are amplified for investments in emerging markets securities. Generally, markets in emerging market countries are less diverse and mature than those of developed countries and their political systems are less stable. In addition, recordkeeping, accounting, financial and other reporting may be less extensive and less frequent. There are risks also associated with share registration, custody and foreign investment structures. Further, due to the smaller securities markets, limited reliable access to capital, market manipulation concerns, lower trading volumes and less government regulation of securities markets (including limitations on the available rights and remedies) in emerging market countries compared to those in developed countries, investments in emerging market securities generally are more illiquid and volatile and subject to a higher risk of settlement disruptions than investments in securities of issuers in developed countries. Consequently, emerging market securities may be subject to relatively more abrupt and severe price declines.

Equity Securities Risk — The market prices of equity securities, which may include common stocks and other stock-related securities such as preferred stocks, convertible securities and rights and warrants, may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. A Fund may continue to accept new subscriptions and to make additional investments in equity securities even under general market conditions that a Fund’s investment team views as unfavorable for equity securities. The value of a security may decline for reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as management performance, financial leverage, and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services or due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. Unlike debt securities, which have preference to a company’s assets in case of liquidation, common stock, are entitled to the residual value after the company meets its other obligations. Unlike common stock, preferred stock generally pays a fixed dividend from a company’s earnings and may have a preference over common stock on the distribution of a company’s assets in the event of bankruptcy or liquidation. Preferred stockholders’ liquidation rights are subordinate to the company’s debt holders and creditors. If interest rates rise, the fixed dividend on preferred stocks may be less attractive and the price of preferred stocks may decline. Convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible securities of similar quality. Convertible securities may gain or lose value due to changes in the issuer’s operating results, financial condition, credit rating and changes in interest rates and other general economic, industry and market conditions. Rights and warrants can provide a greater potential for profit or loss than an equivalent investment in the

15

Risk Factors

underlying security. Prices of warrants and rights do not necessarily move in tandem with the prices of the underlying securities and therefore are highly volatile and speculative investments.

Foreign Securities Risk

◼

Foreign Investments Risk — Foreign investments involve certain special risks. For example, compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies. Foreign issuers may not be subject to the uniform accounting, auditing, and financial reporting standards and practices prevalent in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments. Investments in depositary receipts (such as ADRs and GDRs) may also involve additional risks associated with the non-uniform terms that apply to depositary receipt programs, credit exposure to the depository bank and to the sponsors and other parties with whom the depository bank establishes the programs, currency risk and the risk of an illiquid market for depositary receipts. Certain of these risks may also apply to some extent to U.S. investments that are denominated in foreign currencies and to investments in U.S. companies that have significant foreign operations.

◼

Political Risk — Foreign securities markets may be more volatile than their counterparts in the U.S. Investments in foreign countries could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Foreign settlement procedures may also involve additional risks, and foreign issuers can be impacted by changes to trade policies and trade disputes. These factors can make foreign investments more volatile than U.S. investments.

◼

Liquidity Risk — Securities that trade less frequently or with lower trade volume can be more difficult or more costly to buy or sell than more liquid or active investments. Liquidity risk is a factor of the trading volume of a particular investment, as well as the size and liquidity of the entire local market. On the whole, foreign exchanges are smaller and less liquid than U.S. exchanges. See also Liquidity Risk.

◼

Currency Risk — Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment. Adverse changes in exchange rates, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may erode or reverse any gains produced by investments denominated in foreign currencies and may widen any losses.

◼

Legal Risk — Legal remedies for investors in foreign countries may be more limited than the legal remedies available in the U.S.

Geographic Focus Risk — The Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets within one or more countries or geographic regions. When the Fund focuses its investments in a country or countries, it is particularly susceptible to the impact of market, economic, political, regulatory and other factors affecting those countries. Additionally, the Fund’s performance may be more volatile when the Fund’s investments are focused in a country or countries.

Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, a Fund's performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.

Large-Capitalization Stock Risk — Large-capitalization companies tend to compete in mature product markets and do not typically experience the level of sustained growth of smaller companies and companies competing in less mature product markets. Large-capitalization companies may be unable

16

Risk Factors

to respond as quickly as smaller companies to competitive challenges or changes in business, product, financial, or other market conditions. For these and other reasons, a Fund that invests in large-capitalization companies may underperform other stock funds (such as funds that focus on the stocks of small- and medium-capitalization companies) when stocks of large-capitalization companies are out of favor.

Large Shareholder Risk — A Fund, like all investment companies, pools the investments of many investors. Actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. For example, significant levels of new investments in a Fund by shareholders may cause the Fund to have more cash than would otherwise be the case, which might have a positive or negative impact on Fund performance. Similarly, redemption activity might cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities, which may increase transaction costs and might generate a capital gain or loss, or cause it to borrow funds on a short-term basis to cover redemptions, which would cause the Fund to incur costs that, in effect, would be borne by all shareholders and not just the redeeming shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity also may affect the per share amount of a Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an Affiliated Fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in a Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.

Liquidity Risk — Liquidity risk exists when particular investments cannot be disposed of quickly in the normal course of business. The ability of the Fund to dispose of such investments at advantageous prices may be greatly limited, and the Fund may have to continue to hold such investments during periods when the Adviser would otherwise have sold them (in order, for example, to meet redemption requests or to take advantage of other investment opportunities). Market values for illiquid investments may not be readily available, and there can be no assurance that any fair value assigned to an illiquid investment at any time will accurately reflect the price the Fund might receive upon the sale of that investment. Adverse market or economic conditions independent of any specific adverse changes in the conditions of a particular issuer, including rising interest rates, may adversely affect the liquidity of the Fund’s investments and the Fund may be forced to sell large amounts of investments more quickly than it normally would in the ordinary course of business. In such cases the sale proceeds received by a Fund may be substantially less than if the Fund had been able to sell the investments in more orderly transactions, and the sale price may be substantially lower than the price previously used by the Fund to value the investment for purposes of determining the Fund’s net asset value. Some investments held by a Fund may be restricted as to resale, and there is often no ready market for such investments. In addition, a Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price.

Management Risk — The investment process used by the investment team may produce incorrect judgments about the value of a particular asset or the team may implement its investment strategy in a way that may not produce the desired results.

Smaller-Company Stock Risk — Small- or mid-sized companies often have more limited managerial and financial resources than larger, more established companies and, therefore, may be more susceptible to market downturns or changing economic conditions. In addition, such companies may have been recently organized and have little or no track record of success. Also, the Adviser may not have had an opportunity to evaluate such newer companies’ performance in adverse or fluctuating market conditions. The securities of smaller-sized companies may trade less frequently and in smaller volume than more widely held securities. Prices of small- or mid-sized companies tend to be more

17

Risk Factors

volatile than those of larger companies and small- or mid-sized issuers may be subject to greater degrees of changes in their earnings and prospects. Since smaller company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be often more difficult to purchase and sell.

Stock Market Risk — Stock market risk refers to the fact that stock (equity securities) prices typically fluctuate more than the values of other types of securities, typically in response to changes in the particular company’s financial condition and factors affecting the market in general. Over time, the stock market tends to move in cycles, with periods when stock prices rise, and periods when stock prices decline. A slower-growth or recessionary economic environment could have an adverse effect on stock prices. Consequently, a broad-based market drop may also cause a stock’s price to fall. Portfolio securities may also decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment, or due to factors affecting particular industries represented in the securities markets, such as competitive conditions. Changes in the financial condition of a single issuer can impact a market as a whole, and adverse market conditions may be prolonged and may not have the same impact on all types of securities. In addition, the markets may not favor a particular kind of security, including equity securities. Values of securities may fall due to factors affecting a particular issuer, industry or the securities market as a whole.

Market turmoil may be reflected in perceptions of economic uncertainty, price volatility in the equity and debt markets, and fluctuating trading liquidity. In response, governments may adopt a variety of fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs, and lower interest rates. These policies may not be successful and any unexpected or quick reversal of these policies could increase volatility in the equity and debt markets. Market conditions and economic risks could have a significant effect on domestic and international economies and could add significantly to the risks of increased volatility and decreased liquidity for a Fund's portfolio.

◼

Geopolitical/Natural Disaster Risk — Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. Epidemics and/or pandemics, such as the coronavirus (or COVID-19), may result in, among other things, closing borders, disruptions to healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, cancellations, disruptions to supply chains and consumer activity, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact may last for extended periods.

◼

Information Technology and Operational Risk — Markets and market participants are increasingly reliant upon both publicly available and proprietary information data systems. Data imprecision, software or other technology malfunctions, programming inaccuracies, unauthorized use or access, and similar circumstances may impair the performance of these systems and may have an adverse impact upon a single issuer, a group of issuers, or the market at large. The information technology and other operational systems upon which a Fund’s service providers rely may be subject to cyber attack or other technological disruptions, and could otherwise disrupt the ability of these service providers to perform essential tasks for

a Fund. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on either specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in a Fund being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or accurately price its investments.

Additional Risk Factors. The Adviser may use several types of investment strategies in pursuing each Fund's overall investment objective. The following risks are those that the Adviser does not consider to be principal risks of the Funds. Additional risks are included in the Funds' SAI.

Derivatives Risk — Derivatives, such as forward currency contracts, futures contracts and options on futures contracts, are subject to the risk that small price movements can result in substantial gains or losses. Derivatives also entail exposure to counterparty risk, the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and the risk that changes in value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the relevant securities, assets or indices. The Fund “covers” its exposure to certain derivative contracts by segregating or designating liquid assets on its records sufficient to satisfy current payment obligations, which may expose the Fund to the market through both the underlying assets subject to the contract and the assets used as cover. The use of derivatives may cause the Fund to incur losses greater than those that would have occurred had derivatives not been used.

Investment Company Risk — The Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective may be directly related to the ability of other investment companies (including ETFs) held by the Fund to meet their investment objectives. In addition, shareholders of the Fund will indirectly bear the fees and expenses of the underlying investment companies. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.

Securities Lending Risk — The risk in lending portfolio securities, as with other extensions of credit, consists of the possibility of loss to a Fund due to (1) the inability of the borrower to return the securities, (2) a delay in receiving additional collateral to adequately cover any fluctuations in the value of securities on loan, (3) a delay in recovery of the securities, or (4) the loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. These events could trigger adverse tax consequences for a Fund. In addition, a Fund is responsible for any loss that might result from its investment of the borrower’s collateral. In determining whether to lend securities, the Adviser or a Fund’s securities lending agent will consider relevant facts and circumstances, including the creditworthiness of the borrower.

Organization and Management of the Funds

The Funds' Board of Trustees has the overall responsibility for overseeing the management of each Fund.

The Investment Adviser

The Adviser serves as the investment adviser to each of the Victory Funds pursuant to an investment management agreement. The Adviser oversees the operations of the Funds according to investment policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The Adviser is a New York corporation that is registered as an investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As of September 30, 2021, the Adviser managed and advised assets totaling in excess of $159.8 billion for individual and institutional clients. The Adviser’s principal address is 15935 La Cantera Parkway, San Antonio, TX 78256.

The Adviser is a diversified global asset manager comprised of multiple investment teams, referred to as investment franchises, each of which utilizes an independent approach to investing. Trivalent Investments (“Trivalent”) is the investment franchise responsible for management of the Funds.

Advisory fees to be paid annually, before waivers, will be equal to the following:  

Fund	Advisory Fee
Victory Trivalent International Fund – Core Equity	0.80%
Victory Trivalent International Small Cap Fund	0.92%

See “Fund Fees and Expenses” for information about any contractual agreement by the Adviser to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses with respect to a Fund. From time to time, the Adviser also may voluntarily waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in amounts exceeding those required to be waived or reimbursed under any contractual agreement that may be in place with respect to a Fund.

A discussion of the Board’s most recent considerations in approving the Advisory Agreement is included in each Fund’s semi-annual report for the period ended December 31.

Investing with the Victory Funds  

All you need to do to get started is to fill out an application.

If you are looking for a convenient way to open an account or to add money to an existing account, we can help. The sections that follow will serve as a guide to your investment with the Victory Funds. These sections describe many of the share classes currently offered by the Victory Funds. The section Choosing a Share Class will help you decide which share class it may be to your advantage to buy.

Keep in mind that Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. In addition, not all Victory Funds offer each class of shares described below, and therefore, certain classes may be discussed that are not necessarily offered by a Fund. The classes of shares that are offered by a Fund are those listed on the cover page designated with a ticker symbol. A Fund may also offer other share classes in different prospectuses.

This section of the Prospectus also describes how to open an account, how to access information about your account, and how to buy, exchange, and sell shares of a Victory Fund. Note, this information may vary if you invest through a third party such as a brokerage firm and will be dependent on that firm's policies and practices. Consult your Investment Professional for specific details.

We want to make it simple for you to do business with us. If you have questions about any of this information, please call your Investment Professional or one of our customer service representatives at 800-539-FUND. They will be happy to assist you.  

An Investment Professional is an investment consultant, salesperson, financial planner,

investment adviser, or trust officer who provides you with investment information.

Your Investment Professional also can help you decide which share class is best for you.

Investment Professionals and other financial intermediaries may charge fees for their services.

22

Share Price  

The daily NAV is useful to you as a shareholder because the NAV,

multiplied by the number of Fund shares you own, gives you the value of your investment.

Each Victory Fund calculates its share price, called its net asset value (“NAV”), each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (“NYSE”), which is normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event of an emergency or other disruption in trading on the NYSE, a Fund’s share price will be determined based upon the close of the NYSE. You may buy, exchange, and sell your shares on any business day at a price that is based on the NAV that is next calculated after you place your order. A business day is a day on which the NYSE is open.

To the extent a Fund’s investments include securities that are primarily traded in foreign markets, the value of those securities may change on days when shareholders are unable to purchase and redeem a Fund’s shares, such as on weekends or other days when the Fund does not price its shares.

Each Fund prices its investments based on market value when market quotations are readily available. When these quotations are not readily available, a Fund will price its investments at fair value according to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. A Fund will fair value a security when:

◼

Trading in the security has been halted;

◼

The market quotation for the security is clearly erroneous due to a clerical error;

◼

The security’s liquidity decreases such that, in the Adviser's opinion, the market quotation has become stale; or

◼

An event occurs after the close of the trading market (but before the Fund’s NAV is calculated) that, in the Adviser’s opinion, materially affects the value of the security.

The use of fair value pricing may minimize arbitrage opportunities that attempt to exploit the differences between a security's market quotation and its fair value. The use of fair value pricing may not, however, always reflect a security’s actual market value in light of subsequent relevant information, and the security’s opening price on the next trading day may be different from the fair value price assigned to the security.

Each Victory Fund calculates the NAV of each share class by adding up the total value of the investments and other assets of that class, subtracting its liabilities, and then dividing that figure by the number of outstanding shares of the class.  

NAV=	Total Assets - Liabilities
	Number of Shares Outstanding

You may be able to find a Fund's NAV each day in The Wall Street Journal and other newspapers. Newspapers do not normally publish fund information until a fund reaches a specific number of shareholders or level of assets. You may also find a Fund's NAV by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting the Funds' website at VictoryFunds.com.

Share Classes

When you purchase shares of a Fund, you must choose a share class. The Victory Funds offer Class A, Class C, Class I, Class R, Class R6 and Class Y shares. Each share class represents an interest in the same portfolio of securities, but the classes differ in the sales charges, if any, and expenses that apply

24

Choosing a Share Class

to your investment, allowing you and your Investment Professional to choose the class that best suits your investment needs. Not all Victory Funds offer all classes of shares, and some classes of shares are available for purchase only by eligible shareholders. The Victory Funds may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

Deciding which share class best suits your investment needs depends on a number of factors that you should discuss with your Investment Professional, including: how long you expect to hold your investment, how much you intend to invest, and the total expenses associated with each share class.

The Funds reserve the right to change the eligibility criteria for purchasing a particular share class. For example, a class of shares may be available to purchase only by retirement plans or by institutional investors. The Funds may also waive any applicable eligibility criteria or investment minimums at its discretion.

A Fund or any class may be closed at any time for failure to achieve an economical level of assets or for other reasons. Certain financial intermediaries who hold shares on behalf of their customers impose fees when the amount of shares of a particular class falls below a minimum threshold. To the extent that the amount of shares falls below that threshold, the Funds reserve the right to liquidate the shares held in accounts maintained by the financial intermediary.

Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares  

For historical expense information, see the “Financial Highlights”

at the end of this Prospectus.

Class A shares are sold at their public offering price, which is the NAV plus any applicable initial sales charge, also referred to as the “front-end sales load.” The sales charge may be reduced or eliminated for larger purchases, as detailed below or as described under Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares. The investment levels required to obtain a reduced sales charge are commonly referred to as “breakpoints.”

All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through an intermediary specified in Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

In order to obtain a breakpoint discount, you must inform the Victory Funds or your Investment Professional at the time you purchase shares of the existence of the other Victory accounts or purchases of Victory Funds that are eligible to be linked for the purpose of calculating the initial sales charge. The Fund or your Investment Professional may ask you for records or other information about other Victory Funds held in your Victory accounts and any linked accounts, such as accounts opened with a different financial intermediary.

The current sales charge rates and breakpoint levels for Class A shares of the Funds are listed below:  

Your Investment in the Fund	Sales Charge as a % of Offering Price	Sales Charge as a % of Your Investment
Up to $49,999	5.75%	6.10%
$50,000 up to $99,999	4.50%	4.71%
$100,000 up to $249,999	3.50%	3.63%
$250,000 up to $499,999	2.50%	2.56%
$500,000 up to $999,999	2.00%	2.04%

Choosing a Share Class

Your Investment in the Fund	Sales Charge as a % of Offering Price	Sales Charge as a % of Your Investment
$1,000,000 and above1	0.00%	0.00%

1 A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions. You may be eligible for a reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. See CDSC Reductions for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A - Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries for details.

Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers for Class A Shares  

There are several ways you can combine multiple purchases of Class A shares of the Victory

Funds to take advantage of reduced sales charges and, in some cases, eliminate sales charges.

There are a number of ways you can reduce your sales charges, which we describe below. In order to obtain a Class A sales charge reduction or waiver, you must provide your financial intermediary or the Funds' transfer agent, at the time of purchase, with current information regarding shares of any Victory Funds held in other accounts. This information must include account statements or other records (including written representations from the intermediary holding the shares) that indicate that a sales charge was paid for shares of the Victory Funds held in: any accounts (e.g., retirement accounts) established (i) with the Victory Funds and your investment professional; (ii) with other financial intermediaries; and (iii) in the name of immediate family household members (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21).

The availability of a sales charge reduction or waiver discussed below will depend upon whether you purchase your shares directly from the Funds or through a financial intermediary. If you are eligible for a sales charge reduction because you own shares of other Victory Funds, you must notify the Funds or your financial intermediary at the time of purchase of any relationship or other facts qualifying you for sales charge reductions or waivers. Some intermediaries impose different policies for sales charge waivers and reductions. These variations are described in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. Except as described with respect to the intermediaries specified in Appendix A, all Class A shares are subject to the terms stated below. In order to obtain waivers and discounts that are not available through your intermediary, you must purchase Fund shares directly from the Funds or through another intermediary.

You can find additional information regarding sales charges and their reductions, free of charge, at vcm.com/policies, by clicking on Victory Portfolios' Mutual Funds Pricing Policies.

You may reduce or eliminate the sales charge applicable to Class A shares in a number of ways:

◼

Breakpoint - Purchase a sufficient amount to reach a breakpoint (see Calculation of Sales Charges for Class A Shares above);

◼

Letter of Intent - If you anticipate purchasing $50,000 or more of Class A shares of the Fund, including any purchase of other Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), within a 13-month period, you may qualify for a sales charge breakpoint as though the total quantity were invested in one lump sum. In order to qualify for the reduced sales charge, you must submit a non-binding Letter of Intent (the “Letter”) within 90 days of the start of the purchases. Each investment you make after signing the Letter will be entitled to the sales charge applicable to the total investment indicated in the Letter. You must start with a minimum initial investment of at least 5.00% of the total amount you intend to purchase. A portion of the shares purchased under the Letter will be held in escrow until the total investment has been completed. In the event you do not complete your commitment set forth in

26

Choosing a Share Class

the Letter in the time period specified, sufficient escrowed shares will be redeemed to pay any applicable front-end sales charges;

◼

Right of Accumulation - You may add the value of any other Victory Funds of any share class that you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), to the amount of your next Class A investment to determine if your additional investment will qualify for a sales charge breakpoint. The value of the other Victory Funds of any share class you already own (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) will be calculated by using the greater of the current value or the original investment amount. You may be eligible for reduced sales charges on future purchases of Class A shares of the Fund after you have reached a new breakpoint. To determine your reduced sales charge, you can add the value of your Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans), (or those held by your spouse (including domestic partner) and your children under age 21), determined at the previous day’s NAV, to the amount of your new purchase, valued at the current offering price. To ensure that the reduced price will be received pursuant to the Fund’s Right of Accumulation, you or your Investment Professional must inform the Fund’s transfer agent that the Right applies each time shares are purchased and provide the transfer agent with sufficient information to permit confirmation of qualification;

◼

Combination Privilege - You may combine the value in accounts of multiple Victory Funds of any share class (except money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) and in accounts of household members of your immediate family (spouse or domestic partner and children under 21) to achieve a reduced sales charge on your added investment;

◼

Reinstatement Privilege - You may reinvest at NAV all or part of your redemption proceeds within 90 days of a redemption of Class A shares of a Fund;

◼

Waiver - The Victory Funds will completely waive the sales charge for Class A shares in the following cases:

◼

Purchases of $1,000,000 or more;

◼

Purchases by certain individuals associated with the Victory Funds or service providers (see “Eligibility of Individuals Associated with the Victory Funds and Fund Service Providers”);

◼

Purchases by registered broker-dealers, financial intermediaries or their agents or affiliates who have agreements with the Funds' distributor (“Distributor”), if the shares are purchased for their own account, purchased for retirement plans of their employees or sold to registered representatives or full-time employees (or their immediate families), provided that such purchase is for one of the foregoing types of accounts;

◼

Purchases for trust or other advisory accounts established with a financial institution and fee-based investment products or accounts;

◼

Reinvestment of proceeds from a liquidation distribution of Class A shares of a Victory Fund held in a deferred compensation plan, agency, trust, or custody account;

◼

Purchases by retirement plans, including Section 401 and 457 plans sponsored by a Section 501(c)(3) organization and certain non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements that operate in a similar manner to qualified plans. Investors nonetheless may be charged a fee if they effect transactions in Class A shares through a broker or agent;

◼

Purchases by participants in no transaction fee programs offered by certain broker-dealers (sometimes referred to as “supermarkets”);

◼

Purchases by certain financial intermediaries who offer shares to self-directed investment brokerage accounts that may or may not charge a transaction fee to its customers;

◼

Investors that have an investment account with the Adviser;

27

Choosing a Share Class

◼

Purchases by CMS Energy employees participating in a Victory prototype Roth IRA plan by way of payroll deduction from CMS Energy; and

◼

Individuals who reinvest the proceeds of redemptions from Class I, Class R6 or Class Y shares of a Victory Fund within 60 days of redemption.

You should inform the Fund or your Investment Professional at the time of purchase of the sales charge waiver category which you believe applies.

CDSC for Class A Shares

A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) of 0.75% may be imposed on certain redemptions of Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge if any of those shares are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. This charge will be based on either the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption, whichever is lower. No CDSC is imposed on shares representing reinvested distributions.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries. All Class A purchases are subject to the terms described herein except for those purchases made through the intermediaries specified in Appendix A.

CDSC for Class C Shares

You will pay a 1.00% CDSC on any Class C shares you sell within 12 months of purchase. The CDSC is based on the current value of the shares being sold or their NAV when purchased, whichever is less. There is no CDSC on shares you acquire by reinvesting your dividends or capital gains distributions. You may be eligible for reduction or waiver of this CDSC under certain circumstances. There is no CDSC imposed when you exchange your shares for Class C shares of another Victory Fund; however, your exchange is subject to the same CDSC schedule that applied to your original purchase.

An investor may, within 90 days of a redemption of Class C shares, reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds in the Class C shares of any Victory Fund at the NAV next computed after receipt by the transfer agent of the reinvestment order. Class C share proceeds reinvested do not result in a refund of any CDSC paid by the shareholder, but the reinvested shares will be treated as CDSC exempt upon reinvestment. The shareholder must ask the Distributor for such privilege at the time of reinvestment.

To keep your CDSC as low as possible, each time you sell shares we will first sell shares in your account that are not subject to a CDSC. If there are not enough of these to meet your sale, we will sell the shares in the order they were purchased.

More information is available in CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares and Appendix A – Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries.

CDSC Reductions and Waivers for Class A and Class C Shares

No CDSC is imposed on redemptions of Class A and Class C shares in the following circumstances:

◼

To the extent that the shares redeemed:

◼

are no longer subject to the holding period for such shares;

◼

resulted from reinvestment of distributions; or

◼

were exchanged for shares of another Victory Fund as allowed by the Prospectus, provided that the shares acquired in such exchange or subsequent exchanges will continue to remain

subject to the CDSC, if applicable, calculated from the original date of purchase until the applicable holding period expires. In determining whether the CDSC applies to each redemption, shares not subject to a CDSC are redeemed first;

a registered shareholder on an account; or

◼

a settlor of a living trust, of shares held in the account at the time of death or initial determination of post-purchase disability;

Information About Fees

Distribution and Service Plans

In accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Trust has adopted Distribution and Service Plans for Class A, Class C and Class R shares of the Funds.

Under the Class A Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets of Class A shares. Under the Class R Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of up to 0.50% of its average daily net assets of Class R shares. The fee is paid for general distribution services, for selling Class A and Class R shares of the Fund and, as applicable, for providing personal services to shareholders of the Fund. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of Fund shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Under the Class C Distribution and Service Plan, a Fund will pay to the Distributor a monthly fee at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of its Class C shares. Of this amount, 0.75% of the Fund’s Class C shares average daily net assets will be paid for general distribution services and for selling Class C shares. The Fund will pay 0.25% of its Class C shares average daily net assets to compensate financial institutions that provide personal services to Class C shareholders of the Fund. Distribution and selling services are provided by the Distributor or by agents of the Distributor and include those services intended to result in the sale of the Fund’s Class C shares. Personal services to shareholders are generally provided by broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries and consist of responding to inquiries, providing information to shareholders about their Fund accounts, establishing and maintaining accounts and records, providing dividend and distribution payments, arranging for bank wires, assisting in transactions and changing account information.

Because Rule 12b-1 fees are paid out of a Fund’s assets and on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

Other Payments to Financial Intermediaries

Except with respect to Class R6 shares, if you purchase Fund shares through an Investment Professional, a broker dealer, or other financial intermediary, the Fund may pay for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and/or similar administrative services. In addition, the Adviser (and its affiliates) may make substantial payments out of its own resources, including the profits from the advisory fees the Adviser receives from the Funds, to affiliated and unaffiliated dealers or other Investment Professionals and service providers for distribution, administrative and/or shareholder servicing activities. The Adviser also may reimburse the Distributor (or the Distributor's affiliates) for making these payments. Some of these distribution-related payments may be made to dealers or other Investment Professionals for marketing, promotional or related expenses; these payments are often referred to as “revenue sharing.” The Adviser (and its affiliates) also may pay fixed fees for the listing of a Fund on a broker-dealer’s or financial intermediary’s system. Such payments are not considered to be revenue sharing payments.

In some circumstances, these types of payments may create an incentive for a dealer or Investment Professional or its representatives to recommend or offer shares of the Victory Funds to its customers. You should ask your dealer or Investment Professional for more details about any such payments it receives.

31

Information About Fees

No compensation, administrative payments, sub-transfer agency payments or service payments are paid to broker-dealers or other financial intermediaries from Fund assets, or from the resources of the Adviser or its affiliates on sales of or investments in Class R6 shares.

How to Buy Shares

Opening an Account

If you would like to open an account, you will first need to complete an Account Application.

You can obtain an Account Application by calling Victory Funds Customer Service at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863). You can also download an Account Application by visiting the Victory Funds' website, VictoryFunds.com, and clicking on the Victory Funds Account Application link. Send the completed Account Application, along with a check made payable to the Victory Funds, at the following address:

Victory Funds
P.O. Box 182593
Columbus, OH 43218-2593

You can also obtain an Account Application by contacting your Investment Professional. When you invest through an Investment Professional, the procedures for buying, selling, and exchanging shares and the account features and policies may differ. In addition to any limitations described in this Prospectus, an Investment Professional or other intermediary may also place other limits on your ability to use the services of a Fund. Sometimes an Investment Professional will charge you for its services. This fee will be in addition to, and unrelated to, the fees and expenses charged by the Funds.

Mutual funds must obtain and verify information that identifies investors opening new accounts. If the Funds are unable to collect the required information, you may not be able to open your account. Additional details about the Funds' Customer Identification Program are available in the section “Important Fund Policies.”

If you participate in a retirement plan that offers one of the Victory Funds as an option, please consult your employer for information on how to purchase shares of the Victory Funds through the plan, including any restrictions or limitations that may apply.

Paying for Your Initial Purchase

If you wish to make an investment directly into the Victory Funds, make your check payable to the “Victory Funds.” All checks must be drawn on U.S. banks. If your check is returned as uncollectible for any reason, you will be charged for any resulting fees and/or losses. The Fund does not accept cash, money orders, traveler’s checks, credit card convenience checks, or third party checks. Additionally, bank starter checks are not accepted for the shareholder’s initial investment into the Funds. All payments must be denominated in U.S. dollars.

Minimum Investments

If you would like to buy Class A or Class C shares, the minimum investment required to open an account is $2,500 ($1,000 for IRA accounts), with additional investments of at least $50. If you would like to buy Class I, Class R, Class R6 or Class Y shares, you must be an Eligible Investor, as discussed in the section Choosing a Share Class — Eligibility Requirements to Purchase. Eligible Investors may be subject to a minimum investment amount as detailed in that section.

For Class C shares, individual purchases of $1,000,000 and above will automatically be made in Class A shares.

If your account falls below the minimum investment amount, we may ask you to reestablish the minimum investment. If you do not do so within 60 days, we may close your account and send you the value of your account.

The minimum investment required to open an account may be waived or lowered for employees and immediate family members of the employees, of the Adviser, the Administrator, and their affiliates. In addition, the minimum investment required may be waived when a Fund is purchased through an Advisory Program, within qualified retirement plans or in other similar circumstances. Although the

33

How to Buy Shares

Funds may sometimes waive the minimum investment, when they do so, they always reserve the right to reject initial investments under the minimum at their discretion.

There is no minimum investment required to open an account or for additional investments in Victory Simple IRAs.

A Fund reserves the right to change the criteria for eligible investors and the investment minimums.

35

How to Exchange Shares  

There may be limits on the ability to exchange between certain Victory Funds. You can

obtain a list of Victory Funds available for exchange by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by visiting

VictoryFunds.com

The shares of any class of a Fund may be exchanged for the shares of any other class offered by the Fund or the same class, or any other class of any Victory Fund, either through your Investment Professional or directly through the Fund, subject to the conditions described below:

◼

Exchanges are subject to any CDSC, minimum investment limitation or eligibility requirements described in the applicable Prospectus and SAI. You may be required to provide sufficient information to establish eligibility to exchange into a new share class.

◼

To exchange with a Victory Fund, the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into must be eligible for exchange with your Fund.

◼

Shares of the Victory Fund selected for exchange must be available for sale in your state of residence.

If you have questions about these, or any of the Funds' other exchange policies, please consult Victory Customer Service or your Investment Professional before requesting an exchange.

Before exchanging, you should read the Prospectus of the other Victory Fund you wish to exchange into, which may be subject to different risks, fees and expenses.

Class C Share Conversion

Class C shares of the Fund will automatically convert to Class A shares in the month following the eight-year anniversary date of the purchase of the Class C shares. Your financial intermediary may have a conversion schedule that is shorter than eight years. Class C conversions will be effected at the relative NAV of each such class without the imposition of any sales charge, fee or other charge.

You may be able to voluntarily convert your Class C shares before the stated anniversary to a different share class of the same Fund that has a lower total annual operating expense ratio provided certain conditions are met. This voluntary conversion feature is intended for shares held through a financial intermediary offering a fee-based or wrap fee program that has an agreement with the Adviser or the Distributor specific for this purpose. Generally, Class C shares are not eligible for conversion until the applicable CDSC period has expired. Please contact your financial intermediary for additional information.

Processing Your Voluntary Exchange/Conversion

If your exchange or conversion request is received and accepted by the Funds, an Investment Professional or other intermediary by the close of trading as described in the section entitled, “Share Price,” then your request will be processed the same day. If received after the close of trading, your request will be processed on the next business day. Please contact your financial intermediary regarding the tax consequences of any exchange or conversion.

Exchanges will occur at the respective NAVs of the Funds' share classes involved in the exchange next calculated after receipt and acceptance of your exchange request in good order, plus any applicable sales charge described in the Prospectus. Share class conversions will be based on the respective NAV of each class as of the trade date of the conversion. Consequently, you may receive fewer shares or more shares than originally owned, depending on that day’s NAVs.

Requesting an Exchange

You can exchange shares of the Funds by telephone, by mail or via the Internet. You cannot exchange into an account with a different registration or tax identification number.

◼

By Telephone

36

How to Exchange Shares

Unless you indicate otherwise on the account application, Victory Customer Service will be authorized to accept exchange instructions received by telephone.

◼

By Mail

Send a letter of instruction signed by all registered owners or their legal representatives to the Victory Funds.

◼

Via the Internet

You may also exchange shares via the Internet at VictoryFunds.com if you are a registered user.

Other Exchange Rules You Should Know

The Funds may refuse any exchange purchase request if the Adviser determines that the request is associated with a market timing strategy. The Funds may terminate or modify the exchange privilege at any time upon 60 days’ notice to shareholders.

An exchange of Fund shares for shares of another Victory Fund constitutes a sale for tax purposes unless the exchange is made within an IRA or other tax-deferred account.

For information on how to exchange shares of a Fund that were purchased through your employer’s retirement plan, including any restrictions and charges that the plan may impose, please consult your employer.

37

How to Sell Shares  

There are a number of convenient ways to sell your shares. You can use the same mailing

addresses listed for purchases.

If your redemption request is received in good order by the close of trading on the NYSE, your redemption will be processed the same day. Your redemption will not be processed until the next business day if it is received after the close of trading on the NYSE. You cannot redeem your shares at www.VictoryFunds.com.

 

BY TELEPHONE

The easiest way to redeem shares is by calling 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863). When you fill out your original application, be sure to check the box marked “Telephone Authorization.” Then when you are ready to sell, call and tell us which one of the following options you would like to use:

◼

Mail a check to the address of record;

◼

Wire funds to a previously designated domestic financial institution;

◼

Mail a check to a previously designated alternate address; or

◼

Electronically transfer your redemption via ACH to a previously designated domestic financial institution.

The transfer agent records all telephone calls for your protection and takes measures to verify the identity of the caller. If the transfer agent properly acts on telephone instructions and follows reasonable procedures to ensure against unauthorized transactions, none of the Trust, its servicing agents, the Adviser, or the transfer agent will be responsible for any losses. If the transfer agent does not follow these procedures, it may be liable to you for losses resulting from unauthorized instructions.

If there is an unusual amount of market activity and you cannot reach the transfer agent or your Investment Professional by telephone, consider placing your order by mail.

 

BY MAIL

Use the regular U.S. mail or overnight mail address to redeem shares. Send us a letter of instruction indicating your Fund account number, amount of redemption, and where to send the proceeds. A Medallion signature guarantee is required for the following redemption requests:

◼

Your account registration has changed within the last 15 business days;

◼

The check is not being mailed to the address on your account;

◼

The check is not being made payable to the owner of the account;

◼

The redemption proceeds are being transferred to another Victory Fund account with a different registration; or

◼

The check or wire is being sent to a different bank account than was previously designated.

You can get a Medallion signature guarantee from a financial institution — such as a commercial bank, broker dealer, credit union, clearing agency, or savings bank — that is a member of a Medallion signature guarantee program.  

BY WIRE

If you want to receive your proceeds by wire, you must establish a Fund account that will accommodate wire transactions. If you call before the close of trading on the NYSE, your funds will be wired on the next business day.  

BY ACH

Normally, your redemption will be processed on the same day, but will be processed on the next day if received after the close of trading on the NYSE. It will be transferred by ACH as long as the transfer is to a domestic bank.

38

How to Sell Shares

Systematic Withdrawal Plan

If you check this box on the Account Application or on the Account Maintenance Form, we will send monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payments to the person you designate. The minimum withdrawal is $25, and you must have a balance of $5,000 or more at the time you establish the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If the payment is to be sent to an account of yours, we will need a voided check to activate this feature. If the payment is to be made to an address different from your account address, we will need a Medallion signature guaranteed letter of instruction. You should be aware that each withdrawal may be a taxable transaction. Also, each withdrawal reduces your account balance, and eventually your account balance may be depleted. However, you cannot automatically close your account using the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. If your balance falls below the initial purchase minimum, we may ask you to bring the account back to the minimum balance. If you decide not to increase your account to the minimum balance, your account may be closed and the proceeds mailed to you.

Additional Information About Redemptions

◼

Redemption proceeds from the sale of Fund shares purchased by a check or through ACH will be held until the purchase check or ACH has cleared, which will take up to 10 business days.

◼

We typically expect to send the proceeds from your share redemption within one business day after we execute your order, but we may take up to seven business days to send redemption proceeds, regardless of payment type. When you sell shares through your financial intermediary, you can ask the intermediary to tell you when you can expect to receive the proceeds of your redemption.

◼

A Fund may suspend your right to redeem your shares in the following circumstances:

◼

During non-routine closings of the NYSE;

◼

When the SEC determines either that trading on the NYSE is restricted or that an emergency prevents the sale or valuation of the Fund’s securities; or

◼

When the SEC orders a suspension to protect the Fund’s shareholders.

◼

A Fund typically uses cash and cash equivalents held in its portfolio or sells portfolio assets to meet redemption requests. In unusual circumstances or under stressed market conditions, the Fund may use other methods to raise cash to meet redemption requests. For example, the Fund may draw funds from a line of credit or borrow available cash held by other Victory Funds under an “interfund lending program” in reliance on an exemptive order from the SEC.

◼

A Fund will pay redemptions by any one shareholder during any 90-day period in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1.00% of the Fund’s net assets. The Funds reserve the right to pay the remaining portion “in kind,” that is, in portfolio securities rather than cash. Securities received pursuant to an in-kind redemption are subject to market risk until sold and may be subject to brokerage and other fees.

◼

If you choose to have your redemption proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the redemption check to you or the check remains outstanding for more than six months, the Funds reserve the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed redemption checks.

39

Distributions and Taxes  

Buying a dividend. You should check the Funds' distribution schedule before you invest.

If you buy shares of a Fund shortly before it makes a distribution,

some of your investment may come back to you as a taxable distribution.

As a shareholder, you are entitled to your share of net income and capital gains on a Fund's investments. Each Fund passes its earnings along to investors in the form of dividends. Dividends paid by a Fund represent the net income from dividends and interest earned on investments after expenses. Each Fund will distribute short-term gains, as necessary, and if the Fund makes a long-term capital gain distribution, it is normally paid once a year.

Ordinarily, each Fund declares and pays dividends annually. However, a Fund may not always pay a dividend or distribution for a given period. Each class of shares declares and pays dividends separately.

Distributions can be received in one of the following ways. Please check with your Investment Professional if you are unsure of which option is right for you.  

Your choice of distribution should be set up on the original Account Application.

If you would like to change the option you selected, please call 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863).

Reinvestment Option

You can have distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of your Fund. If you do not indicate another choice on your Account Application, you will be assigned this option automatically.

Cash Option

If you elect to receive your distributions by check, and the distribution amount is $25 or less, the amount will automatically be reinvested in the same Fund. Otherwise, a check will be mailed to you no later than seven days after the dividend payment date. If you choose to have your distribution proceeds mailed to you and either the U.S. Postal Service is unable to deliver the distribution check to you or the check remains outstanding for at least six months, the distribution option on your account will default to the reinvestment option as described above. Each Fund reserves the right to reinvest the check in shares of the Fund at its then current NAV until you give the Fund different instructions. No interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed distribution checks.

Income Earned Option

You can automatically reinvest your dividends in additional Fund shares and have your capital gains paid in cash, or reinvest capital gains and have your dividends paid in cash.

Directed Distributions Option

In most cases, you can automatically reinvest distributions in shares of another Victory Fund. If you reinvest your distributions in a different Victory Fund, you will pay a sales charge on the amount of reinvested distributions.

Directed Bank Account Option

In most cases, you can automatically transfer distributions to your bank checking or savings account. Under normal circumstances, the transfer agent will transfer your distributions within seven days of the dividend payment date. The bank account must have a registration identical to that of your Fund account.

40

Distributions and Taxes

Important Information About Taxes  

The tax information in this Prospectus is provided as general information. You should

consult your own tax adviser about the tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

Each Fund expects to pay no federal income tax on the earnings and capital gains it distributes to shareholders.

◼

Qualified dividend income received from a Fund by noncorporate shareholders will be taxed at long-term capital gain rates to the extent attributable to qualified dividend income received by the Fund, subject to certain holding period requirements. Nonqualified dividends, dividends received by corporate shareholders and dividends from a Fund’s short-term capital gains are taxable as ordinary income. Dividends from a Fund’s long-term capital gains are taxable as long-term capital gains.

◼

You will pay tax on dividends from a Fund whether you receive them in cash, additional shares of the Fund or you reinvest them in shares of another Victory Fund.

◼

Dividends from a Fund that are attributable to interest on certain U.S. government obligations, if any, may be exempt from certain state and local income taxes. The extent to which ordinary dividends are attributable to these U.S. government obligations will be provided on the tax statements you receive from a Fund.

◼

An exchange of a Fund’s shares for shares of another Victory Fund will be treated as a sale. When you sell or exchange shares of a Fund, you generally will recognize any gain or loss.

◼

An exchange of one class of a Fund’s shares for shares of another class of the same Fund generally constitutes a nontaxable exchange.

◼

Distributions from a Fund and gains from the disposition of your shares may also be subject to state and local income tax.

◼

An additional 3.8% Medicare tax will be imposed on certain net investment income (which includes dividends and gain recognized on a disposition of shares) of certain U.S. individuals, estates, and trusts.

◼

Certain dividends paid to you in January will be taxable as if they had been paid to you the previous December.

◼

Tax statements will be mailed from each Fund by mid-February showing the amounts and tax status of distributions made to you in the prior calendar year.

◼

Because your tax treatment depends on your purchase price and tax position, you should keep your regular account statements for use in determining your tax.

◼

A Fund is generally required by law to provide you and the Internal Revenue Service with certain cost basis information related to the sale or redemption of any of your shares in the Fund acquired on or after January 1, 2012, (including distributions that are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund).

◼

A Fund may be required to withhold tax from dividends and redemption proceeds if you fail to give your correct social security or taxpayer identification number, fail to make required certifications, or the Fund is notified by the Internal Revenue Service that backup withholding is required.

◼

If you are a nonresident alien individual, foreign trust or estate, foreign corporation or foreign partnership, a Fund’s ordinary income dividends may be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

Under the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act,” unless certain foreign entities comply with certain IRS requirements that generally require them to report information regarding U.S. persons investing in, or holding accounts with, such entities, a 30% U.S. withholding tax may

41

Distributions and Taxes

apply to dividends paid by a Fund to such entities. See the section entitled “TAXES—Foreign Shareholders” in the SAI for details.

◼

You should review the more detailed discussion of federal income tax considerations in the SAI and consult your tax adviser regarding the federal, state, local, or foreign tax consequences resulting from your investment in the Fund.

◼

The Funds may provide estimated capital gain distribution information through the website at VictoryFunds.com.

◼

Dividends and interest received by a Fund and capital gains recognized by a Fund may give rise to withholding and other taxes imposed by foreign countries. Tax conventions between certain countries and the United States may reduce or eliminate such taxes. You may be able to claim a credit or take a deduction for foreign taxes paid by a Fund if certain requirements are met.

42

Important Fund Policies

Customer Identification Program

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens a new account, and to determine whether such person’s name appears on government lists of known or suspected terrorists and terrorist organizations.

As a result, the Victory Funds must obtain the following information for each person who opens a new account:

◼

Name;

◼

Date of birth (for individuals);

◼

Residential or business street address (although post office boxes are still permitted for mailing); and

◼

Social security number, taxpayer identification number, or other identifying number.

You may also be asked for a copy of your driver’s license, passport or other identifying document in order to verify your identity. In addition, it may be necessary to verify your identity by cross-referencing your identification information with a consumer report or other electronic database. Additional information may be required to open accounts for corporations and other entities. Federal law prohibits the Victory Funds and other financial institutions from opening a new account unless they receive the minimum identifying information listed above. After an account is opened, the Victory Funds may restrict your ability to purchase additional shares until your identity is verified. The Victory Funds may close your account or take other appropriate action if it is unable to verify your identity within a reasonable time. If your account is closed for this reason, your shares will be redeemed at the NAV next calculated after the account is closed.

Account Maintenance Information

For the following non-financial transactions, the Victory Funds require proof that your signature authorizing a transaction is authentic. This verification can be provided in all cases by either a Signature Validation Program (SVP) stamp or a Medallion signature guarantee (MSG). In some instances a Notary Public stamp is an acceptable alternative. As with the MSG, a SVP stamp can also be obtained from a financial institution that is a member of the SVP program.

Market Timing

The Victory Funds discourage frequent purchases and redemptions of Fund shares (market timing). Market timing allows investors to take advantage of market inefficiencies, sometimes to the disadvantage of other shareholders. Market timing increases Fund expenses to all shareholders by increasing portfolio turnover. In addition, market timing could potentially dilute share value for all other shareholders by requiring the Fund to hold more cash than it normally would.

43

Important Fund Policies

The Funds' Board of Trustees has adopted policies and procedures with respect to market timing. In order to prevent or minimize market timing, the Funds will:

◼

Employ “fair value” pricing, as described in this Prospectus under Share Price, to minimize the discrepancies between a security’s market quotation and its perceived market value, which often gives rise to market timing activity; and

◼

Monitor for suspected market timing based on “short-term transaction” activity, that is, a purchase or redemption of a Fund and, as applicable, a subsequent redemption or purchase of the same Fund, or an exchange of all or part of that same Fund.

In monitoring for market timing activity, we consider, among other things, the frequency of your trades and whether you acquired your Fund shares directly through the transfer agent or whether you combined your trades with a group of shareholders in an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary.

Frequent trading by a shareholder is generally a characteristic of market timing. Therefore, any account in which Fund shares are acquired directly through the transfer agent, or where the Fund can adequately identify the shareholder, with a history of three short-term transactions within 90 days or less is suspected of market timing and the shareholder’s trading privileges (other than redemption of Fund shares) will be suspended.

We may make exceptions to the “short-term transaction” policy for certain types of transactions if, in the opinion of the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, the transactions do not represent short-term or excessive trading or are not abusive or harmful to the Funds, such as, but not limited to, systematic transactions, required minimum retirement distributions, transactions initiated by the Funds or administrator and transactions by certain qualified funds-of-funds.

If you acquired shares through an omnibus account or otherwise placed your order through a securities dealer or other financial intermediary (such as investment advisers, broker-dealers, third-party administrators or insurance companies), and market timing is suspected, different purchase and exchange limitations may apply. We may rely upon a financial intermediary’s policy to deter short-term or excessive trading (i) if we believe that the financial intermediary’s policy is reasonably designed to detect and deter transactions that are not in the best interests of the Funds, or (ii) if we receive an undertaking from the financial intermediary to enforce short-term or excessive trading policies on behalf of the Funds that provide a substantially similar level of protection for the Funds against such transactions. If you hold your Fund shares through a financial intermediary, you are advised to consult the intermediary to determine what purchase and exchange limitations apply to your account.

We reserve the right to reject or cancel a purchase or exchange order for any reason without prior notice. We will deny your request to purchase or exchange your shares if we believe that the transaction is part of a market timing strategy.

The Funds' market timing policies and procedures may be modified or terminated at any time under the oversight of the Board of Trustees.

Portfolio Holdings Disclosure

A description of each Fund's policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Funds' portfolio securities is available in the Funds' SAI, which is available upon request and on the Funds' website at VictoryFunds.com.

44

Important Fund Policies

Performance

The Victory Funds may advertise the performance of a Fund by comparing it to other mutual funds with similar objectives and policies. Performance information also may appear in various publications. Any fees charged by Investment Professionals may not be reflected in these performance calculations.

Advertising information may include the average annual total return of the Funds calculated on a compounded basis for specified periods of time. Total return information will be calculated according to rules established by the SEC. Such information may include performance rankings and similar information from independent organizations and publications.

Shareholder Communications

In order to eliminate duplicate mailings to an address at which two or more shareholders with the same last name reside, the Victory Funds may send only one copy of any shareholder reports, proxy statements, prospectuses and their supplements, unless you have instructed us to the contrary. You may request that the Victory Funds send these documents to each shareholder individually by calling the Victory Funds at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863), and they will be delivered promptly.

Financial Highlights

The following financial highlights tables reflect historical information about shares of the Funds and are intended to help you understand each Fund's financial performance for the past five years, or, if shorter, the period of its operations. Certain information shows the results of an investment in one share of the Fund. To the extent a Fund invests in other funds, the Total Annual Operating Expenses included in a Fund's Fees and Expenses Table may not correlate to the ratio of expenses to average net assets in the financial highlights below. The total returns in the table represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in each Fund (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).

The information presented  for the fiscal years ended on or after June 30, 2019, has been audited by Cohen & Company, Ltd., the Funds' independent registered public accounting firm, whose report, along with the Funds' financial statements, are included in the Funds' annual report. The information for all prior periods has been audited by a different independent registered public accounting firm. The Funds' annual and semi-annual reports are available by calling the Victory Funds at 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) and at www.VictoryFunds.com.

Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries

The availability of certain initial and contingent deferred sales charge reductions and waivers may depend on the particular financial intermediary or type of account through which you purchase or hold Fund shares.

Edward D. Jones & Co (”Edward Jones“)

61

Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries

broker-dealer. In all instances, it is the shareholder’s responsibility to inform Edward Jones at the time of purchase of any relationship, holdings of the Victory Funds, or other facts qualifying the purchaser for discounts or waivers. Edward Jones can ask for documentation of such circumstance. Shareholders should contact Edward Jones if they have questions regarding their eligibility for these discounts and waivers.

Breakpoints - Breakpoint pricing, otherwise known as volume pricing, at dollar thresholds as described in the prospectus.

◼

Rights of Accumulation (“ROA”)

◼

The applicable sales charge on a purchase of Class A shares is determined by taking into account all share classes (except certain money market funds and any assets held in group retirement plans) of the Victory Funds held by the shareholder or in an account grouped by Edward Jones with other accounts for the purpose of providing certain pricing considerations (“pricing groups”). If grouping assets as a shareholder, this includes all share classes held on the Edward Jones platform and/or held on another platform. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the ROA calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Money market funds are included only if such shares were sold with a sales charge at the time of purchase or acquired in exchange for shares purchased with a sales charge.

◼

ROA is determined by calculating the higher of cost minus redemptions or market value (current shares x NAV).

◼

The employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan may elect to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping as opposed to including all share classes at a shareholder or pricing group level.

◼

Letter of Intent (“LOI”)

◼

Through a LOI, shareholders can receive the sales charge and breakpoint discounts for purchases shareholders intend to make over a 13-month period from the date Edward Jones receives the LOI. The LOI is determined by calculating the higher of cost or market value of qualifying holdings at LOI initiation in combination with the value that the shareholder intends to buy over a 13-month period to calculate the front-end sales charge and any breakpoint discounts. Each purchase the shareholder makes during that 13-month period will receive the sales charge and breakpoint discount that applies to the total amount. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the LOI calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying Edward Jones of such assets at the time of calculation. Purchases made before the LOI is received by Edward Jones are not adjusted under the LOI and will not reduce the sales charge previously paid. Sales charges will be adjusted if LOI is not met.

◼

If the employer maintaining a SEP IRA plan and/or SIMPLE IRA plan has elected to establish or change ROA for the IRA accounts associated with the plan to a plan-level grouping, LOIs will also be at the plan-level and may only be established by the employer.

Sales Charge Waivers - Sales charges are waived for the following shareholders and in the following situations:

◼

Associates of Edward Jones and its affiliates and their family members who are in the same pricing group (as determined by Edward Jones under its policies and procedures) as the associate. This waiver will continue for the remainder of the associate’s life if the associate retires from Edward Jones in good-standing and remains in good standing pursuant to Edward Jones' policies and procedures.

◼

Shares purchased in an Edward Jones fee-based program.

◼

Shares purchased through reinvestment of capital gains distributions and dividend reinvestment.

◼

Shares exchanged into Class A shares from another share class so long as the exchange is into the same fund and was initiated at the discretion of Edward Jones.

◼

Exchanges from Class C shares to Class A shares of the same fund, generally, in the 84th month following the anniversary of the purchase date or earlier at the discretion of Edward Jones.

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Trust was organized as a Delaware statutory trust (formerly referred to as a “business trust”) on December 6, 1995 as a successor to a company of a similar name organized as a Massachusetts business trust on February 5, 1986. The Trust is an open-end management investment company. The Trust currently consists of 41 series of units of beneficial interest (“shares”). This SAI relates to the shares of 11 series of the Trust (each a "Fund," and collectively, the "Funds").

Victory Capital Management Inc. (the “Adviser” or “Victory Capital”) is the Funds’ investment adviser. Each Fund’s investment objective(s), restrictions and policies are more fully described below and in the Fund’s Prospectus. The Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) may organize and offer shares of a new fund or liquidate a Fund or share class at any time.

This SAI relates to the shares of the Funds and their respective classes. Each Fund, except for the Victory Munder Small Cap Growth Fund, was formed for the purposes of completing the October 31, 2014 reorganizations with the 10 corresponding series of Munder Series Trust, a registered investment company.

The Victory Trivalent International Fund—Core Equity and Victory Trivalent International Small-Cap Fund are referred to collectively in this SAI as the “International Funds.” All Funds excluding the Victory INCORE Total Return Bond Fund are referred collectively in this SAI as the “Equity Funds.” The Victory INCORE Total Return Bond Fund is referred to in this SAI as the “Bond Fund.”

Much of the information contained in this SAI expands on subjects discussed in each Fund’s Prospectus. Capitalized terms not defined herein are used as defined in the Prospectuses. No investment in shares of a Fund should be made without first reading that Fund’s Prospectus.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND LIMITATIONS

Investment Objectives

Each Fund’s investment objective is non-fundamental, meaning it may be changed by a vote of the Trustees without a vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities. There can be no assurance that a Fund will achieve its investment objective.

Investment Policies and Limitations of the Funds

Unless a policy of a Fund is expressly deemed to be a fundamental policy of the Fund, changeable only by an affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of that Fund’s outstanding voting securities, the Fund’s policies are non-fundamental and may be changed without a shareholder vote.

A Fund may, following notice to its shareholders, employ other investment practices that presently are not contemplated for use by the Fund or that currently are not available but that may be developed to the extent such investment practices are both consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and legally permissible for the Fund. Such investment practices, if they arise, may involve risks that exceed those involved in the activities described in the Fund’s Prospectus.

A Fund’s classification and sub-classification is a matter of fundamental policy. Each Fund is classified as an open-end investment company. Each Fund is sub-classified as a diversified investment company, which under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) means that, with respect to 75% of a Fund’s total assets, the Fund may not invest in securities of any issuer if, immediately after such investment, (i) more than 5% of the total assets of the Fund (taken at current value) would be invested in the securities of that issuer or (ii) more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of the issuer would be held by the Fund (this limitation does not apply to obligations of the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities and securities of other investment companies). A diversified fund is not subject to this limitation with respect to the remaining 25% of its total assets. In addition, each Fund has elected to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). To qualify as a regulated investment company, the Funds must meet certain diversification requirements as determined at the close of each quarter of each taxable year. The Code’s diversification test is described in “TAXES.”

The policies and limitations stated in this SAI supplement the Funds’ investment policies set forth in each Fund’s Prospectus. Unless otherwise noted, whenever an investment policy or limitation states a maximum percentage of a Fund’s assets that may be invested in any security or other asset, or sets forth a policy regarding quality standards, such standard or percentage limitation will be determined immediately after and as a result of the Fund’s acquisition of such security or other asset except in the case of borrowing (or other activities that may be deemed to result in the issuance of a “senior security” under the 1940 Act). Accordingly, any subsequent change in values, net assets, or other circumstances will not be considered when determining whether the investment complies with a Fund’s investment policies and limitations. If the value of a Fund’s holdings of illiquid investments at any time exceeds the percentage

2

limitation applicable at the time of acquisition due to subsequent fluctuations in value or other reasons, the Trust’s Board will consider what actions, if any, are appropriate to maintain adequate liquidity.

Fundamental Investment Policies and Limitations of the Funds

The following investment policies and limitations are fundamental and may not be changed without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities, as defined under the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund means the affirmative vote of the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the shares of the Fund present at a meeting at which the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund are represented in person or by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. Portions of the Funds’ fundamental investment restrictions (e.g., references to “except as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified from time to time by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction”) provide the Funds with flexibility to change limitations in connection with changes in applicable law, rules, regulations or exemptive relief. The language used in these restrictions provides the necessary flexibility to allow the Board of Trustees to respond efficiently to these kinds of developments without the delay and expense of a shareholder meeting.

Senior Securities

None of the Funds may issue senior securities, except as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified from time to time by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) takes the position that transactions that have the effect of increasing the leverage of the capital structure of a fund are the economic equivalent of borrowing, and they can be viewed as a type of borrowing known as a “senior security” for purposes of the 1940 Act. Examples of such transactions and trading practices include: reverse repurchase agreements; mortgage-dollar-roll transactions; selling securities short (other than selling short “against the box”); buying and selling certain derivatives contracts, such as futures contracts; writing or selling put and call options; engaging in sale-buybacks; firm commitment and standby commitment agreements; when-issued, delayed delivery and forward commitment transactions; and other similar transactions. A transaction will not be considered to constitute the issuance by a Fund of a “senior security,” as that term is defined in Section 18(g) of the 1940 Act, and therefore such transaction will not be subject to the 300% minimum asset coverage requirement otherwise applicable to borrowings by a Fund, if the Fund segregates liquid assets or covers the transaction in accordance with applicable SEC or staff guidance and procedures adopted by the Board. In most cases the Fund need not physically segregate the assets. Instead, the Fund’s custodian may note on the Fund’s books the assets that are “segregated.” Segregated liquid assets may not be used to cover other obligations, and if disposed of, must be replaced. In order to comply with the applicable regulatory requirements regarding cover, a Fund may be required to buy or sell securities at a disadvantageous time or when the prices then available are deemed disadvantageous. In addition, segregated assets may not be readily available to satisfy redemption requests or for other purposes.

Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 18f-4”), which becomes fully effective in 2022, will regulate the use of derivatives by the Funds. Rule 18f-4 generally will permit a Fund to enter into derivatives transactions provided it complies with certain conditions. See “Derivatives” below. Rule 18f-4 will permit a Fund to treat reverse repurchase transactions (and other similar financing transactions) either as borrowings or as “derivatives transactions” subject to the risk-based limits of Rule 18f-4, and would not require a Fund to maintain segregated assets to meet its asset coverage requirements. Rule 18f-4 also permits the Funds to invest in securities on a when-issued or forward-settling basis, or with a non-standard settlement cycle. These transactions will not be deemed to involve a senior security, and thus generally will not require the Funds to maintain a “segregated account” when engaging in these types of transactions, subject to certain conditions and any other restrictions that the Funds have adopted.

Underwriting

None of the Funds may underwrite securities issued by others, except to the extent that a Fund may be considered an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in the disposition of restricted securities.

Borrowing

None of the Funds may borrow money, except as permitted under the 1940 Act, or by order of the SEC and as interpreted or modified from time to time by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction.

A Fund’s ability to borrow money is limited by its investment policies and limitations, by the 1940 Act, and by applicable exemptions, no action letters, interpretations, and other pronouncements issued from time to time by regulatory authorities, including the SEC and its staff. Under the 1940 Act, a Fund is required to maintain continuous asset coverage (that is, total assets including the proceeds of borrowings, less liabilities excluding borrowings) of not less than 300% of the amount borrowed, with an exception for borrowings not in excess of 5% of the Fund’s total assets made for temporary purposes. Any borrowings for temporary purposes in excess of 5% are subject to the minimum 300% asset coverage requirement. If the value of the assets set aside to meet the 300% asset coverage were to decline below 300% due to market fluctuations or other causes, a Fund may be required to sell some of its portfolio holdings within

3

three days (excluding Sundays and holidays) to reduce the debt and comply with the 300% minimum asset coverage requirement, even in circumstances where it is considered disadvantageous from an investment perspective to sell securities at that time or at the prices then available.

Real Estate

None of the Funds may purchase or sell real estate unless acquired as a result of direct ownership of securities or other instruments. This restriction shall not prevent any of these Funds from investing in the following: (i) securities or other instruments backed by real estate; (ii) securities of real estate operating companies; or (iii) securities of companies engaged in the real estate business, including real estate investment trusts. This restriction does not preclude any of these Funds from buying securities backed by mortgages on real estate or securities of companies engaged in such activities.

Lending

None of the Funds may make loans, except as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified from time to time by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction.

Generally, the 1940 Act prohibits loans if a fund’s investment policies do not permit loans, and if the loans are made, directly or indirectly, to persons deemed to control or to be under common control with the registered investment company.

Commodities

None of the Funds may purchase or sell physical commodities unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other instruments (but this shall not prevent a Fund from purchasing or selling options and futures contracts or from investing in securities or other instruments backed by physical commodities).

Concentration

None of the Funds may concentrate its investments in a particular industry, as the term “concentration” is used in the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified from time to time by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction. This restriction shall not prevent any Fund from investing all of its assets in a “master” fund that has adopted similar investment objectives, policies and restrictions.

Concentration means investing more than 25% of a Fund’s net assets in a particular industry or a specified group of industries.

INVESTMENT PRACTICES, INSTRUMENTS AND RISKS

In addition to the principal investment strategies and the principal risks of the Funds described in each Prospectus, each Fund may, but will not necessarily, employ other investment practices and may be subject to additional risks which are described further below. Because the following is a combined description of investment strategies and risks for all of the Funds, certain strategies and/or risks described below may not apply to every Fund. Unless a strategy or policy described below is specifically prohibited with respect to a particular Fund by the investment restrictions listed in the Prospectus, under “Investment Objectives Policies and Limitations” in this SAI, or by applicable law, a Fund may, but will not necessarily, engage in each of the practices described below.

Debt Securities

Asset-Backed Securities (“ABS”). The Bond Fund may invest in ABS (i.e., securities backed by mortgages, installment sales contracts, credit card receivables or other assets). Consistent with each Fund’s investment objectives and policies, the Adviser also may invest in other types of ABS. (Also see “Mortgage-Related Securities” below).

ABS are bonds backed by pools of loans or other receivables. ABS are created from many types of assets, including auto loans, credit card receivables, home equity loans, and student loans. ABS are issued through special purpose vehicles that are separate from the issuer of the collateral. The credit quality of an ABS transaction depends on the performance of the underlying assets. To protect ABS investors from the possibility that some borrowers could miss payments or even default on their loans, ABS include various forms of credit enhancement.

Some ABS, particularly home equity loan transactions, are subject to interest-rate risk and prepayment risk. A change in interest rates can affect the pace of payments on the underlying loans, which in turn affects total return on the securities. ABS also carry credit or default risk. If many borrowers on the underlying loans default, losses could exceed the credit enhancement level and result in losses to investors in an ABS transaction. Finally, ABS have structure risk due to a unique characteristic known as early amortization, or early payout, risk. Built into the structure of most ABS are triggers for early payout, designed to protect investors from losses. These triggers are unique to each transaction and can include: a big rise in defaults on the underlying loans, a sharp drop in the credit enhancement

4

level, or even the bankruptcy of the originator. Once early amortization begins, all incoming loan payments are used to pay investors as quickly as possible.

The average life of ABS varies with the maturities of the underlying instruments. The average life of an asset-backed instrument is likely to be substantially less than the original maturity of the asset pools underlying the securities as the result of unscheduled principal payments and prepayments. The rate of such prepayments, and hence the life of the securities, will be primarily a function of current interest rates and current conditions in the relevant markets. Because of these and other reasons, an asset-backed security’s total return may be difficult to predict precisely.

Bank Obligations. Each of the Funds may invest in U.S. dollar-denominated bank obligations, including certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances, bank notes, deposit notes and interest-bearing savings and time deposits, issued by U.S. or foreign banks or savings institutions having total assets at the time of purchase in excess of $1 billion. For this purpose, the assets of a bank or savings institution include the assets of both its domestic and foreign branches. The Funds will invest in the obligations of domestic banks and savings institutions only if their deposits are federally insured. Investments by a Fund in (i) obligations of domestic banks and (ii) obligations of foreign banks and foreign branches of domestic banks each will not exceed 25% of the Fund’s total assets at the time of investment.

Non-domestic bank obligations include Eurodollar Certificates of Deposit (“ECDs”), which are U.S. dollar-denominated certificates of deposit issued by offices of foreign and domestic banks located outside the United States; Eurodollar Time Deposits (“ETDs”), which are U.S. dollar-denominated deposits in a foreign branch of a U.S. bank or a foreign bank; Canadian Time Deposits (“CTDs”), which are essentially the same as ETDs except they are issued by Canadian offices of major Canadian banks; Schedule Bs, which are obligations issued by Canadian branches of foreign or domestic banks; Yankee Certificates of Deposit (“Yankee CDs”), which are U.S. dollar-denominated certificates of deposit issued by a U.S. branch of a foreign bank and held in the United States; and Yankee Bankers’ Acceptances (“Yankee BAs”), which are U.S. dollar-denominated bankers’ acceptances issued by a U.S. branch of a foreign bank and held in the United States. Generally, a Fund will invest in obligations of foreign banks or foreign branches of U.S. banks only when the Adviser deems the instrument to present minimal credit risks. However, such investments may nevertheless entail risks that are different from those of investments in domestic obligations of U.S. banks due to differences in political, regulatory and economic systems and conditions.

Commercial Paper. Each Fund may invest in commercial paper (i.e., short-term promissory notes issued by corporations), including tax-exempt commercial paper. Each Fund may invest in commercial paper of issuers rated, at the time of purchase, in one of the two highest rating categories by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”). To the extent that the ratings accorded by NRSROs may change as a result of changes in their rating systems, the Funds will attempt to use comparable ratings as standards for its investments, in accordance with the investment policies contained herein. Where necessary to ensure that an instrument meets, or is of comparable quality to, a Fund’s rating criteria, the Fund may require that the issuer’s obligation to pay the principal of, and the interest on, the instrument be backed by insurance or by an unconditional bank letter or line of credit, guarantee, or commitment to lend. In addition, each of the Funds may acquire commercial paper and corporate bonds of issuers that are not rated but are determined by the Adviser at the time of purchase to be of comparable quality to instruments of issuers that may be acquired by such Fund as previously described.

Ratings represent a rating agency’s opinion regarding the quality of the security and are not a guarantee of quality. In addition, rating agencies may fail to make timely changes to credit ratings in response to subsequent events and a rating may become stale in that it fails to reflect changes in an issuer’s financial condition. See Appendix A to this SAI for a more detailed discussion of securities ratings.

Inflation-Indexed Bonds. The Bond Fund may invest in inflation-indexed bonds, which are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. Two structures are common. The U.S. Treasury and some other issuers use a structure that accrues inflation into the principal value of the bond. Most other issuers pay out the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) accruals as part of a semi-annual coupon.

Inflation-indexed securities issued by the U.S. Treasury have maturities of five, ten or thirty years, although it is possible that securities with other maturities will be issued in the future. The U.S. Treasury securities pay interest on a semi-annual basis, equal to a fixed percentage of the inflation-adjusted principal amount. For example, if a Fund purchased an inflation-indexed bond with a par value of $1,000 and a 3% real rate of return coupon (payable 1.5% semi-annually), and inflation over the first six months were 1%, the mid-year par value of the bond would be $1,010 and the first semi-annual interest payment would be $15.15 ($1,010 times 1.5%). If inflation during the second half of the year resulted in the whole years’ inflation equaling 3%, the end-of-year par value of the bond would be $1,030 and the second semi-annual interest payment would be $15.45 ($1,030 times 1.5%).

If the periodic adjustment rate measuring inflation falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a smaller principal amount) will be reduced. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds, even during a period of deflation. However, the current market value of the bonds is not guaranteed, and will fluctuate. The

5

Funds may also invest in other inflation related bonds which may or may not provide a similar guarantee. If a guarantee of principal is not provided, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.

The value of inflation-indexed bonds is expected to change in response to changes in real interest rates. Real interest rates in turn are tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if inflation were to rise at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates might decline, leading to an increase in value of inflation-indexed bonds. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increased at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds.

While these securities are expected to be protected from long-term inflationary trends, short-term increases in inflation may lead to a decline in value. If interest rates rise due to reasons other than inflation (for example, due to changes in currency exchange rates), investors in these securities may not be protected to the extent that the increase is not reflected in the bond’s inflation measure.

The periodic adjustment of U.S. inflation-indexed bonds is tied to the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (“CPI-U”), which is calculated monthly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The CPI-U is a measurement of changes in the cost of living, made up of components such as housing, food, transportation and energy. Inflation-indexed bonds issued by a foreign government are generally adjusted to reflect a comparable inflation index, calculated by that government. There can be no assurance that the CPI-U or any foreign inflation index will accurately measure the real rate of inflation in the prices of goods and services. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the rate of inflation in a foreign country will be correlated to the rate of inflation in the United States.

Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be considered taxable ordinary income, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.

Lower-Rated Debt Securities. Except for the Bond Fund, each Fund may not invest more than 5% of its total assets in debt securities that are rated below investment grade or in comparable unrated securities. The Bond Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in debt securities that are rated below investment grade or in comparable unrated securities. A security is considered investment grade if, at the time of purchase, it is rated BBB- or higher by S&P or Baa3 or higher by Moody’s. Whether or not a security is investment grade will be determined based on the ratings given by S&P and Moody’s. If both agencies have rated the security, the lower rating will be used. If a single agency has rated the security, that rating will be used. Such securities are also known as junk bonds. The yields on lower-rated debt and comparable unrated securities generally are higher than the yields available on higher-rated securities. However, investments in lower-rated debt and comparable unrated securities generally involve greater volatility of price and risk of loss of income and principal, including the possibility of default by or bankruptcy of the issuers of such securities. Lower-rated debt and comparable unrated securities (a) will likely have some quality and protective characteristics that, in the judgment of the rating organization, are outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions and (b) are predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligation. Accordingly, it is possible that these types of factors could, in certain instances, reduce the value of securities held in each Fund’s portfolio, with a commensurate effect on the value of each of the Fund’s shares. Therefore, an investment in the Funds should not be considered as a complete investment program and may not be appropriate for all investors.

While the market values of lower-rated debt and comparable unrated securities tend to react more to fluctuations in interest rate levels than the market values of higher-rated securities, the market values of certain lower rated debt and comparable unrated securities also tend to be more sensitive to individual corporate developments and changes in economic conditions than higher-rated securities. In addition, lower-rated debt securities and comparable unrated securities generally present a higher degree of credit risk. Issuers of lower-rated debt and comparable unrated securities often are highly leveraged and may not have more traditional methods of financing available to them so that their ability to service their debt obligations during an economic downturn or during sustained periods of rising interest rates may be impaired. The risk of loss due to default by such issuers is significantly greater because lower-rated debt and comparable unrated securities generally are unsecured and frequently are subordinated to the prior payment of senior indebtedness. The Funds may incur additional expenses to the extent that they are required to seek recovery upon a default in the payment of principal or interest on their portfolio holdings. The existence of limited markets for lower-rated debt and comparable unrated securities may diminish each of the Fund’s ability to (a) obtain accurate market quotations for purposes of valuing such securities and calculating its net asset value and (b) sell the securities at fair value either to meet redemption requests or to respond to changes in the economy or in financial markets.

Lower-rated debt securities and comparable unrated securities may have call or buy-back features that permit their issuers to call or repurchase the securities from their holders. If an issuer exercises these rights during periods of declining interest rates, the Funds may have to replace the security with a lower yielding security, thus resulting in a decreased return to the Funds. A description of applicable credit ratings is set forth in Appendix A of this SAI.

Ratings represent a rating agency’s opinion regarding the quality of the security and are not a guarantee of quality. In addition, rating agencies may fail to make timely changes to credit ratings in response to subsequent events and a rating may become stale in that it fails to reflect changes in an issuer’s financial condition. See Appendix A to this SAI for a more detailed discussion of securities ratings.

Mortgage-Related Securities. The Bond Fund may invest in mortgage-related securities, which are a form of asset-backed securities. Mortgage-related securities are interests in pools of residential or commercial mortgage loans, including mortgage loans made by savings and loan institutions, mortgage bankers, commercial banks and others. Pools of mortgage loans are assembled as securities for sale to investors by various governmental, government-related and private organizations. (See “Mortgage Pass-Through Securities” below). Mortgage-related securities also include debt securities which are secured with collateral consisting of mortgage-backed securities (See “Collateralized Mortgage Obligations” below).

Mortgage Pass-Through Securities. Interests in pools of mortgage-related securities provide a monthly payment which consists of both interest and principal payments. In effect, these payments are a “pass-through” of the monthly payments made by the individual borrowers on the underlying residential or commercial mortgage loans and of the repayment of principal resulting from the sale of the underlying property, refinancing or foreclosure, net of fees or costs which may be incurred. Some mortgage-related securities (such as securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA” or “Ginnie Mae”) are described as “modified pass-through.” These securities entitle the holder to receive all interest and principal payments owed on the mortgage pool, net of certain fees, at the scheduled payment dates regardless of whether or not the mortgagor actually makes the payment.

The rate of pre-payments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may have the effect of shortening or extending the effective duration of the security relative to what was anticipated at the time of purchase. To the extent that unanticipated rates of pre-payment on underlying mortgages increase the effective duration of a mortgage-related security, the volatility of such security can be expected to increase. The residential mortgage market in the United States has in the past experienced significant difficulties that may adversely affect the performance and market value of certain of the Funds’ mortgage-related investments. Borrowers with adjustable rate mortgage loans are more sensitive to changes in interest rates, which affect their monthly mortgage payments, and may be unable to secure replacement mortgages at comparably low interest rates, which can increase risk of default. Market factors can cause reduced investor demand for mortgage loans and mortgage-related securities and increased investor yield requirements, resulting in limited liquidity in the secondary market for mortgage-related securities, which can adversely affect the market value of mortgage-related securities. It is possible that such limited liquidity in such secondary markets could occur again.

The principal governmental guarantor of mortgage-related securities is GNMA. GNMA is a wholly owned United States government corporation within the Department of Housing and Urban Development. GNMA is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the United States government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA (such as savings and loan institutions, commercial banks and mortgage bankers) and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”), or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”).

Government-related guarantors include the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA” or “Fannie Mae”) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC” or “Freddie Mac”). FNMA purchases conventional (i.e., not insured or guaranteed by any government agency) residential mortgages from a list of approved seller/servicers which include state and federally chartered savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, commercial banks and credit unions and mortgage bankers. Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA, but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government. FHLMC was created by Congress in 1970 for the purpose of increasing the availability of mortgage credit for residential housing. It is a government-sponsored corporation formerly owned by the twelve Federal Home Loan Banks but now the common stock is owned entirely by private stockholders. FHLMC issues Participation Certificates (“PCs”), which are pass-through securities, each representing an undivided interest in a pool of residential mortgages. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but PCs are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States government.

On September 6, 2008, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) placed FNMA and FHMLC into conservatorship. As the conservator, FHFA succeeded to all rights, titles, powers and privileges of FNMA and FHLMC and of any stockholder, officer or director of FNMA and FHLMC with respect to FNMA and FHLMC and the assets of FNMA and FHLMC. FHFA selected a new chief executive officer and chairman of the board of directors for each of FNMA and FHLMC. In connection with the conservatorship, the U.S. Treasury entered into a Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement with each of FNMA and FHLMC pursuant to which the U.S. Treasury will purchase up to an aggregate of $100 billion of each of FNMA and FHLMC to maintain a positive net worth in each enterprise. This agreement contains various covenants that severely limit each enterprise’s operations. In exchange for entering into these agreements, the U.S. Treasury received $1 billion of each enterprise’s senior preferred stock and warrants to purchase 79.9% of each enterprise’s common stock. On February 18, 2009, the U.S. Treasury announced that it was doubling the size of its commitment to each enterprise under the Senior Preferred Stock Program to $200 billion. The U.S. Treasury’s obligations under the Senior Preferred Stock Program are for an indefinite period of time for a maximum amount of $200 billion per enterprise. In August 2012, the Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement was further amended to, among other things, accelerate the wind down of the retained portfolio, terminate the requirement that FNMA and FHLMC each pay a 10% dividend annually on all amounts received under the funding commitment, and require the submission of an annual risk management plan to the U.S. Treasury.

7

FNMA and FHLMC are continuing to operate as going concerns while in conservatorship and each remains liable for all of its obligations, including its guaranty obligations, associated with its mortgage-backed securities. The Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement is intended to enhance each of FNMA’s and FHLMC’s ability to meet its obligations. The FHFA has indicated that the conservatorship of each enterprise will end when the director of the FHFA determines that FHFA’s plan to restore the enterprise to a safe and solvent condition has been completed.

Under the Federal Housing Finance Regulatory Reform Act of 2008 (“Reform Act”), which was included as part of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, FHFA, as conservator or receiver of FNMA and FHLMC, has the power to repudiate any contract entered into by FNMA or FHLMC prior to FHFA’s appointment as conservator or receiver, as applicable, if FHFA determines, in its sole discretion, that performance of the contract is burdensome and that repudiation of the contract promotes the orderly administration of FNMA’s or FHLMC’s affairs. The Reform Act requires FHFA to exercise its right to repudiate any contract within a reasonable period of time after its appointment as conservator or receiver.

FHFA, in its capacity as conservator, has indicated that it has no intention to repudiate the guaranty obligations of FNMA or FHLMC because FHFA views repudiation as incompatible with the goals of the conservatorship. However, in the event that FHFA, as conservator or if it is later appointed as receiver for FNMA or FHLMC, were to repudiate any such guaranty obligation, the conservatorship or receivership estate, as applicable, would be liable for actual direct compensatory damages in accordance with the provisions of the Reform Act. Any such liability could be satisfied only to the extent of FNMA’s or FHLMC’s assets available therefore. The future financial performance of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is heavily dependent on the performance of the U.S. housing market.

In the event of repudiation, the payments of interest to holders of FNMA or FHLMC mortgage-backed securities would be reduced if payments on the mortgage loans represented in the mortgage loan groups related to such mortgage-backed securities are not made by the borrowers or advanced by the servicer. Any actual direct compensatory damages for repudiating these guaranty obligations may not be sufficient to offset any shortfalls experienced by such mortgage-backed security holders.

Further, in its capacity as conservator or receiver, FHFA has the right to transfer or sell any asset or liability of FNMA or FHLMC without any approval, assignment or consent. Although FHFA has stated that it has no present intention to do so, if FHFA, as conservator or receiver, were to transfer any such guaranty obligation to another party, holders of FNMA or FHLMC mortgage-backed securities would have to rely on that party for satisfaction of the guaranty obligation and would be exposed to the credit risk of that party.

In addition, certain rights provided to holders of mortgage-backed securities issued by FNMA and FHLMC under the operative documents related to such securities may not be enforced against FHFA, or enforcement of such rights may be delayed, during the conservatorship or any future receivership. The operative documents for FNMA and FHLMC mortgage-backed securities may provide (or with respect to securities issued prior to the date of the appointment of the conservator may have provided) that upon the occurrence of an event of default on the part of FNMA or FHLMC, in its capacity as guarantor, which includes the appointment of a conservator or receiver, holders of such mortgage-backed securities have the right to replace FNMA or FHLMC as trustee if the requisite percentage of mortgage-backed securities holders consent. The Reform Act prevents mortgage-backed security holders from enforcing such rights if the event of default arises solely because a conservator or receiver has been appointed. The Reform Act also provides that no person may exercise any right or power to terminate, accelerate or declare an event of default under certain contracts to which FNMA or FHLMC is a party, or obtain possession of or exercise control over any property of FNMA or FHLMC, or affect any contractual rights of FNMA or FHLMC, without the approval of FHFA, as conservator or receiver, for a period of 45 or 90 days following the appointment of FHFA as conservator or receiver, respectively.

In addition, in a February 2011 report to Congress from the Treasury Department and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Obama administration provided a plan to reform America’s housing finance market. The plan would reduce the role of and eventually eliminate FNMA and FHLMC. Notably, the plan does not propose similar significant changes to GNMA, which guarantees payments on mortgage-related securities backed by federally insured or guaranteed loans such as those issued by the Federal Housing Association or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. The report also identified three proposals for Congress and the administration to consider for the long-term structure of the housing finance markets after the elimination of FNMA and FHLMC, including implementing: (i) a privatized system of housing finance that limits government insurance to very limited groups of creditworthy low-and moderate-income borrowers; (ii) a privatized system with a government backstop mechanism that would allow the government to insure a larger share of the housing finance market during a future housing crisis; and (iii) a privatized system where the government would offer reinsurance to holders of certain highly-rated mortgage-related securities insured by private insurers and would pay out under the reinsurance arrangements only if the private mortgage insurers were insolvent.

As a result of continuing conservatorship, congressional interest in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac has increased in recent years. Uncertainty in the housing, mortgage, and financial markets has raised concerns about the potential total costs to the Treasury Department of providing a backstop for the Government-Sponsored Enterprises (“GSE”). Because more than 60% of households are homeowners, a large number of citizens could be affected by the future of the GSEs. Congress exercises oversight of the FHFA and

8

may consider legislation to shape the GSEs’ future. While no such legislation has been introduced, policymakers have proposed reforms to the housing finance system and the future of GSEs remains a topic of debate.

Commercial banks, savings and loan institutions, private mortgage insurance companies, mortgage bankers and other secondary market issuers also create pass-through pools of conventional residential mortgage loans. Such issuers may be the originators and/or servicers of the underlying mortgage loans as well as the guarantors of the mortgage-related securities. Pools created by such non-governmental issuers generally offer a higher rate of interest than government and government-related pools because there are no direct or indirect government or agency guarantees of payments in the former pools. However, timely payment of interest and principal of these pools may be supported by various forms of insurance or guarantees, including individual loan, title, pool and hazard insurance and letters of credit, which may be issued by governmental entities or private insurers. Such insurance and guarantees and the creditworthiness of the issuers thereof will be considered in determining whether a mortgage-related security meets a Fund’s investment quality standards. There can be no assurance that the private insurers or guarantors can meet their obligations under the insurance policies or guarantee arrangements. The Funds may buy mortgage-related securities without insurance or guarantees if, through an examination of the loan experience and practices of the originators/servicers and poolers, the Adviser determines that the securities meet a Fund’s quality standards.

Securities issued by certain private organizations may not be readily marketable. A Fund will not purchase mortgage-related securities or any other assets which in the Adviser’s opinion are illiquid if, as a result, more than 15% of the value of the Fund’s net assets will be illiquid.

Mortgage-backed securities that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, are not subject to the Funds’ industry concentration restrictions, set forth under “Fundamental Investment Policies and Limitations of the Funds,” by virtue of the exclusion from that test available to all U.S. government securities. In the case of privately issued mortgage-related securities, the Funds take the position that mortgage-related securities do not represent interests in any particular “industry” or group of industries. The assets underlying such securities may be represented by a portfolio of first lien residential mortgages (including both whole mortgage loans and mortgage participation interests) or portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities issued or guaranteed by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC. (Please see the discussion above regarding FNMA and FHLMC.) Mortgage loans underlying a mortgage-related security may in turn be insured or guaranteed by the FHA or the VA. In the case of private issue mortgage-related securities whose underlying assets are neither U.S. government securities nor U.S. government-insured mortgages, to the extent that real properties securing such assets may be located in the same geographical region, the security may be subject to a greater risk of default than other comparable securities in the event of adverse economic, political or business developments that may affect such region and, ultimately, the ability of residential homeowners to make payments of principal and interest on the underlying mortgages.

Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”). A CMO is a debt obligation of a legal entity that is collateralized by mortgages and divided into classes. Similar to a bond, interest and prepaid principal is paid, in most cases, on a monthly basis. CMOs may be collateralized by whole mortgage loans or private mortgage bonds, but are more typically collateralized by portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities guaranteed by GNMA, FHLMC, or FNMA, and their income streams.

CMOs are structured into multiple classes, often referred to as “tranches,” with each class bearing a different stated maturity and entitled to a different schedule for payments of principal and interest, including pre-payments. Actual maturity and average life will depend upon the pre-payment experience of the collateral. In the case of certain CMOs (known as “sequential pay” CMOs), payments of principal received from the pool of underlying mortgages, including pre-payments, are applied to the classes of CMOs in the order of their respective final distribution dates. Thus, no payment of principal will be made to any class of sequential pay CMOs until all other classes having an earlier final distribution date have been paid in full.

In a typical CMO transaction, a corporation (“issuer”) issues multiple series (e.g., A, B, C, Z) of CMO bonds (“Bonds”). Proceeds of the Bond offering are used to purchase mortgages or mortgage pass-through certificates (“Collateral”). The Collateral is pledged to a third party trustee as security for the Bonds. Principal and interest payments from the Collateral are used to pay principal on the Bonds in the order A, B, C, Z. The Series A, B, and C Bonds all bear current interest. Interest on the Series Z Bond is accrued and added to principal and a like amount is paid as principal on the Series A, B, or C Bond currently being paid off. When the Series A, B, and C Bonds are paid in full, interest and principal on the Series Z Bond begins to be paid currently. CMOs may be less liquid and may exhibit greater price volatility than other types of mortgage-or asset-backed securities.

Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities. These include securities that reflect an interest in, and are secured by, mortgage loans on commercial real property. Many of the risks of investing in commercial mortgage-backed securities reflect the risks of investing in the real estate securing the underlying mortgage loans. These risks reflect the effects of local and other economic conditions on real estate markets, the ability of tenants to make loan payments, and the ability of a property to attract and retain tenants. Commercial mortgage-backed securities may be less liquid and exhibit greater price volatility than other types of mortgage-or asset-backed securities.

9

Other Mortgage-Related Securities. Other mortgage-related securities include securities other than those described above that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property, including mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals or stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBS”). Other mortgage-related securities may be equity or debt securities issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government or by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans, including savings and loan associations, homebuilders, mortgage banks, commercial banks, investment banks, partnerships, trusts and special purpose entities of the foregoing.

CMO Residuals. CMO residuals are mortgage securities issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government or by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans, including savings and loan associations, homebuilders, mortgage banks, commercial banks, investment banks and special purpose entities of the foregoing.

The cash flow generated by the mortgage assets underlying a series of CMOs is applied first to make required payments of principal and interest on the CMOs and second to pay the related administrative expenses and any management fee of the issuer. The residual in a CMO structure generally represents the interest in any excess cash flow remaining after making the foregoing payments. Each payment of such excess cash flow to a holder of the related CMO residual represents income and/or a return of capital. The amount of residual cash flow resulting from a CMO will depend on, among other things, the characteristics of the mortgage assets, the coupon rate of each class of CMO, prevailing interest rates, the amount of administrative expenses and the pre-payment experience on the mortgage assets. In particular, the yield to maturity on CMO residuals is extremely sensitive to pre-payments on the related underlying mortgage assets, in the same manner as an interest-only (“IO”) class of stripped mortgage-backed securities. (See “Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities” below). In addition, if a series of a CMO includes a class that bears interest at an adjustable rate, the yield to maturity on the related CMO residual will also be extremely sensitive to changes in the level of the index upon which interest rate adjustments are based. As described below with respect to stripped mortgage-backed securities, in certain circumstances a Fund may fail to recoup fully its initial investment in a CMO residual.

CMO residuals are generally purchased and sold by institutional investors through several investment banking firms acting as brokers or dealers. Transactions in CMO residuals are generally completed only after careful review of the characteristics of the securities in question. In addition, CMO residuals may, or pursuant to an exemption therefrom, may not have been registered under the Securities Act. CMO residuals, whether or not registered under the Securities Act, may be subject to certain restrictions on transferability, and may be deemed “illiquid” and subject to a Fund’s limitations on investment in illiquid investments.

Adjustable Rate Mortgage-Backed Securities. Adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities (“ARMBSs”) have interest rates that reset at periodic intervals. Acquiring ARMBSs permits a Fund to participate in increases in prevailing current interest rates through periodic adjustments in the coupons of mortgages underlying the pool on which ARMBSs are based. Such ARMBSs generally have higher current yield and lower price fluctuations than is the case with more traditional fixed income debt securities of comparable rating and maturity. In addition, when prepayments of principal are made on the underlying mortgages during periods of rising interest rates, a Fund can reinvest the proceeds of such prepayments at rates higher than those at which they were previously invested. Mortgages underlying most ARMBSs, however, have limits on the allowable annual or lifetime increases that can be made in the interest rate that the mortgagor pays. Therefore, if current interest rates rise above such limits over the period of the limitation, a Fund, when holding an ARMBS, does not benefit from further increases in interest rates. Moreover, when interest rates are in excess of coupon rates (i.e., the rates being paid by mortgagors) of the mortgages, ARMBSs behave more like fixed income securities and less like adjustable rate securities and are subject to the risks associated with fixed income securities. In addition, during periods of rising interest rates, increases in the coupon rate of adjustable rate mortgages generally lag current market interest rates slightly, thereby creating the potential for capital depreciation on such securities.

Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities. SMBS are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. SMBS may be issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government, or by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans, including savings and loan associations, mortgage banks, commercial banks, investment banks and special purpose entities of the foregoing.

SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will have one class receiving some of the interest and most of the principal from the mortgage assets, while the other class will receive most of the interest and the remainder of the principal. In the most extreme case, one class will receive all of the interest (the “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only or “PO” class). The yield to maturity on an IO class is extremely sensitive to the rate of principal payments (including pre-payments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and a rapid rate of principal payments may have a material adverse effect on a Fund’s yield to maturity from these securities. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated pre-payments of principal, a Fund may fail to recoup some or all of its initial investment in these securities even if the security is in one of the highest rating categories.

Collateralized Debt Obligations. The Funds may invest in collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), which include collateralized bond obligations (“CBOs”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) and other similarly structured securities. CBOs and CLOs are types of asset-backed securities. A CBO is a trust that is often backed by a diversified pool of high risk, below investment grade fixed

10

income securities. A CLO is a trust typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and foreign senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. CDOs may charge management fees and administrative expenses.

For both CBOs and CLOs, the cash flows from the trust are split into two or more portions, called tranches, varying in risk and yield. The riskiest portion is the “equity” tranche which bears the bulk of defaults from the bonds or loans in the trust and serves to protect the other, more senior tranches from default in all but the most severe circumstances. Since it is partially protected from defaults, a senior tranche from a CBO trust or CLO trust typically have higher ratings and lower yields than their underlying securities and can be rated investment grade. Despite the protection from the equity tranche, CBO or CLO tranches can experience substantial losses due to actual defaults, increased sensitivity to defaults due to collateral default and disappearance of protecting tranches, market anticipation of defaults, as well as aversion to CBO or CLO securities as a class.

The risks of an investment in a CDO depend largely on the type of the collateral securities and the class of the CDO in which a Fund invests. Normally, CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs are privately offered and sold, and thus, are not registered under the securities laws. As a result, investments in CDOs may be characterized by the Funds as illiquid investments, however an active dealer market may exist for CDOs allowing a CDO to qualify for Rule 144A transactions. In addition to the normal risks associated with fixed income securities discussed elsewhere in this Statement of Additional Information and the Funds’ Prospectuses (e.g., interest rate risk and default risk), CDOs carry additional risks including, but are not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the Funds may invest in CDOs that are subordinate to other classes; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results.

Mortgage Dollar Rolls. The Bond Fund may engage in mortgage dollar roll transactions. In a mortgage dollar roll transaction the Fund sells a mortgage-related security, such as a security issued by GNMA, to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security (but not the same security) in the future at a pre-determined price. A dollar roll can be viewed, like a reverse repurchase agreement, as a collateralized borrowing in which a Fund pledges a mortgage-related security to a dealer to obtain cash. Unlike in the case of reverse repurchase agreements, the dealer with which the Fund enters into a dollar roll transaction is not obligated to return the same securities as those originally sold by the Fund, but only securities which are substantially identical. To be considered substantially identical, the securities returned to the Fund generally must: (1) be collateralized by the same types of underlying mortgages; (2) be issued by the same agency and be part of the same program; (3) have a similar original stated maturity; (4) have identical net coupon rates; (5) have similar market yields (and therefore price); and (6) satisfy “good delivery” requirements, meaning that the aggregate principal amounts of the securities delivered and received back must be within 0.01% of the initial amount delivered.

Mortgage dollar rolls may be renewed by a new sale and repurchase with a cash settlement at each renewal without physical delivery of the securities. Certain risks may arise upon entering into mortgage dollar rolls from the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the terms of their commitment. Additionally, the value of the securities subject to the dollar roll may change adversely before the Fund is able to repurchase them.

The Fund’s obligations under a dollar roll agreement must be covered by designating, or “segregating,” on its records cash or liquid assets equal in value to the securities subject to repurchase by the Fund. As with reverse repurchase agreements, to the extent that positions in dollar roll agreements are not covered by designating cash or liquid assets at least equal to the amount of any forward purchase commitment, such transactions would be subject to the Fund’s restrictions on borrowings.

Municipal Obligations. The Bond Fund may invest in securities the interest from which is exempt from regular federal income tax, i.e., municipal obligations.

Opinions relating to the validity of municipal obligations and to the exemption of interest thereon from regular federal income tax and/or state income tax, as applicable, are rendered by bond counsel or counsel to the respective issuers at the time of issuance. Neither the Funds nor the Adviser will review the proceedings relating to the issuance of municipal obligations or the basis for such opinions.

An issuer’s obligations under its municipal obligations are subject to the provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors, such as the Federal Bankruptcy Code, and laws, if any, which may be enacted by federal or state legislatures extending the time for payment of principal or interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon enforcement of such obligations or upon the ability of municipalities to levy taxes. The power or ability of an issuer to meet its obligations for the payment of interest on and principal of its municipal obligations may be materially adversely affected by litigation or other conditions.

In order to pay interest that is exempt from federal regular income tax, tax-exempt securities must meet certain legal requirements. Failure to meet such requirements may cause the interest received and distributed by the Fund to shareholders to be taxable. From time to time proposals have been introduced before Congress for the purpose of restricting or eliminating the federal income tax exemption for interest on municipal obligations. For example, under the Tax Reform Act of 1986 interest on certain private activity bonds must be included in an investor’s federal alternative minimum taxable income, and corporate investors must include all tax-exempt interest

11

in their federal alternative minimum taxable income. The Funds cannot predict what legislation, if any, may be proposed in Congress or in any state legislature in the future as regards the federal or state income tax status of interest on municipal obligations in general, or which proposals, if any, might be enacted. Changes or proposed changes in federal or state tax laws may cause the prices of tax-exempt securities to fall, and/or may affect the tax-exempt status of the securities in which the Fund invests. Such proposals, if enacted, might materially adversely affect the availability and valuation of municipal obligations for investment by a Fund and the liquidity and value of such Fund. Future changes in federal and/or state laws or future court decisions could possibly have a negative impact on the tax treatment and/or value of municipal securities.

Municipal bonds are generally considered riskier investments than U.S. Treasury securities. Contrary to historical trends, in recent years, the market has encountered downgrades, increased rates of default and lower yields on municipal bonds. This is a product of significant reductions in revenues for many states and municipalities as well as residual effects of a generally weakened economy.

General Obligation Bonds. General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer possessing taxing power and are payable from such issuer’s general revenues and not from any particular source. Limited obligation bonds (or revenue bonds) are payable only from the revenues derived from a particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Tax-exempt private activity bonds and industrial development bonds generally are also revenue bonds and thus are not payable from the issuer’s general revenues. The credit and quality of private activity bonds and industrial development bonds are usually related to the credit of the corporate user of the facilities. Payment of interest on and repayment of principal of such bonds is the responsibility of the corporate user (and/or any guarantor). Under the Internal Revenue Code, certain limited obligation bonds are considered “private activity bonds” and interest paid on such bonds is treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating federal alternative minimum tax liability. Pre-refunded bonds are municipal obligations that are generally backed or secured by U.S. Treasury bonds. In a typical pre-refunded issue, a municipality sells new bonds and uses the proceeds to buy Treasury securities. It then sets those Treasuries aside, keeping them in special escrow account that will be used to redeem the older, higher-coupon bonds either at the earliest possible date or some later date. Pre-refunded bonds can provide investors with a combination of the highest possible credit quality, and a taxable equivalent yield that compares favorably with that available on Treasuries.

Bond Anticipation Notes (“BANs”). BANs are short-term debt instruments issued by a state or municipality that will be paid off with the proceeds of an upcoming bond issue. Revenue anticipation notes (“RAN”) are short-term debt issues of a municipal entity that are to be repaid out of anticipated revenues, such as sales taxes. When the anticipated revenues are collected, the RAN is paid off.

Some longer-term municipal obligations give the investor the right to “put” or sell the security at par (face value) within a specified number of days following the investor’s request - usually one to seven days. This demand feature enhances a security’s liquidity by shortening its effective maturity and enables it to trade at a price equal to or very close to par. If a demand feature terminates prior to being exercised, a Fund would hold the longer-term security, which could experience substantially more volatility.

Municipal obligations in which the Funds may invest include securities with credit enhancements such as letters of credit, municipal obligation insurance and stand-by purchase agreements (“SPAs”). Letters of credit are issued by a third party, usually a bank, to enhance liquidity and ensure repayment of principal and any accrued interest if the underlying municipal obligation should default. Municipal obligation insurance, which is usually purchased by the bond issuer from a private, non-governmental insurance company, provides an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee that the insured obligation’s principal and interest will be paid when due. Insurance does not guarantee the price of the bond or the share price of any Fund. The credit rating of an insured municipal obligation reflects the credit rating of the insurer, based on its claims-paying ability. The obligation of a municipal bond insurance company to pay a claim extends over the life of each insured municipal obligation. Although defaults on insured municipal obligations have been low to date and municipal bond insurers have met their claims, there is no assurance this will continue. A higher-than-expected default rate could strain the insurer’s loss reserves and adversely affect its ability to pay claims to bondholders. The number of municipal bond insurers is relatively small, and not all of them have the highest rating. An SPA is a liquidity facility provided to pay the purchase price of bonds that cannot be re-marketed. The obligation of the liquidity provider (usually a bank) is only to advance funds to purchase tendered bonds that cannot be remarketed and does not cover principal or interest under any other circumstances. The liquidity provider’s obligations under the SPA are usually subject to numerous conditions, including the continued creditworthiness of the underlying borrower. (See “Stand-by Purchase Agreements” below).

In addition, the recent economic downturn and budgetary constraints make municipal securities more susceptible to downgrade, default, and bankruptcy. Factors affecting municipal securities include lower tax collections and budgetary constraints of local, state and federal governments upon which the municipalities issuing municipal securities may be relying for funding. Municipal securities are also subject to the risk that the perceived increased likelihood of difficulties in the municipal securities markets could result in increased illiquidity, volatility and credit risk, and certain municipal issuers may be unable to issue or market securities, which could result in a lower number of investment opportunities.

Responsible Investing Risk. A Fund may incorporate specific responsible, environmental, social and governance ("ESG"), impact or sustainability considerations into its investment strategy and/or processes, as described in the applicable Fund's Prospectus. These considerations will vary depending on a Fund's particular investment strategy and the investment process followed by the particular

12

investment team that manages the Fund. A team may include consideration of third-party research as well as consideration of proprietary research across the ESG risks and opportunities regarding an issuer. The investment team considers those ESG characteristics it deems relevant or additive when making investment decisions for a Fund. The ESG characteristics utilized in a Fund's investment process are anticipated to evolve over time and one or more characteristics may not be relevant with respect to all issuers that are eligible for investment.

ESG characteristics are not the sole considerations when making investment decisions for a Fund, and may not even be a primary consideration. Further, investors can differ in their views of what constitutes positive or negative ESG characteristics. As a result, a Fund may invest in issuers that do not reflect the beliefs and values with respect to ESG of any particular investor. ESG considerations may affect a Fund's exposure to certain companies or industries and a Fund may forego certain investment opportunities. While the Adviser views ESG considerations as having the potential to contribute to a Fund's long-term performance, there is no guarantee that such results will be achieved.

Stand-by Purchase Agreements. The Bond Fund may enter into stand-by purchase agreements with respect to municipal obligations. Under a stand-by purchase agreement, a dealer agrees to purchase from the Bond Fund at the Fund’s option a specified municipal obligation at its amortized cost value to the Fund plus accrued interest, if any. Stand-by purchase agreements may be exercisable by the Bond Fund at any time before the maturity of the underlying municipal obligations and may be sold, transferred or assigned only with the instruments involved.

The Bond Fund expects that stand-by purchase agreements will generally be available without the payment of any direct or indirect consideration. However, if necessary or advisable, the Bond Fund may pay for a stand-by purchase agreement either separately in cash or by paying a higher price for municipal obligations which are acquired subject to the commitment (thus reducing the yield to maturity otherwise available for the same securities). The total amount paid in either manner for outstanding stand-by purchase agreements held by the Bond Fund will not exceed ½ of 1% of the value of the Bond Fund’s total assets calculated immediately after each stand-by purchase agreement is acquired.

The Bond Fund generally intends to enter into stand-by purchase agreements only with dealers, banks and broker-dealers which, in the Adviser’s opinion, present minimal credit risks. A stand-by purchase agreement will not affect the valuation of the underlying municipal obligation. The actual stand-by purchase agreement will be valued at zero in determining net asset value. Accordingly, where the Bond Fund pays directly or indirectly for a stand-by purchase agreement, its cost will be reflected as an unrealized loss for the period during of the agreement and will be reflected as a realized gain or loss when the purchase agreement is exercised or expires.

Stripped Securities. The Bond Fund may invest in U.S. government obligations and their unmatured interest coupons that have been separated (“stripped”) by their holder, typically a custodian bank or investment brokerage firm. Having separated the interest coupons from the underlying principal of the U.S. government obligations, the holder will resell the stripped securities in custodial receipt programs. The stripped coupons are sold separately from the underlying principal, which is usually sold at a deep discount because the buyer receives only the right to receive a single future fixed payment on the security and does not receive any rights to periodic interest (cash) payments. The underlying U.S. Treasury bonds and notes themselves are held in book-entry form at the Federal Reserve Bank or, in the case of bearer securities (i.e., unregistered securities which are ostensibly owned by the bearer or holder), in trust on behalf of the owners. Counsel to the underwriters of these certificates or other evidences of ownership of U.S. Treasury securities have stated that, in their opinion, purchasers of the stripped securities most likely will be deemed the beneficial holders of the underlying U.S. government obligations for federal tax and securities purposes. The Bond Fund is not aware of any binding legislative, judicial or administrative authority on this issue.

Only instruments that are stripped by the issuing agency will be considered U.S. government obligations. Securities that are stripped by their holder do not qualify as U.S. government obligations.

The U.S. Treasury Department facilitates transfers of ownership of zero coupon securities by accounting separately for the beneficial ownership of particular interest coupon and principal payments on U.S. Treasury securities through the Federal Reserve book-entry recordkeeping system. The Federal Reserve program as established by the U.S. Treasury Department is known as “STRIPS” or “Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities.” Under the STRIPS program, a Fund is able to have its beneficial ownership of zero coupon securities recorded directly in the book-entry recordkeeping system in lieu of having to hold certificates or other evidences of ownership of the underlying U.S. Treasury securities.

Certain types of stripped securities will normally be considered illiquid instruments and will be acquired subject to the limitation on illiquid investments unless the Adviser determines them to be liquid under guidelines established by the Board.

In addition, the Bond Fund may invest in SMBS, which represent beneficial ownership interests in the principal distributions and/or the interest distributions on mortgage assets. SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. One type of SMBS will have one class receiving some of the interest and most of the principal from the mortgage assets, while the other class will receive most of the interest and the remainder of the

13

principal. In the most common case, one class of SMBS will receive all of the interest (the interest-only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only or “PO” class).

The original principal amount, if any, of each SMBS class represents the amount payable to the holder thereof over the life of such SMBS class from principal distributions of the underlying mortgage assets, which will be zero in the case of an IO class. Interest distributions allocable to a class of SMBS, if any, consist of interest at a specified rate on its principal amount, if any, or its notional principal amount in the case of an IO class. The notional principal amount is used solely for purposes of the determination of interest distributions and certain other rights of holders of such IO class and does not represent an interest in principal distributions of the mortgage assets.

Yields on SMBS will be extremely sensitive to the prepayment experience of the underlying mortgage loans, and there are other associated risks. For IO classes of SMBS and SMBS that were purchased at prices exceeding their principal amounts there is a risk that the Bond Fund may not fully recover its initial investment.

The determination of whether a particular government-issued IO or PO backed by fixed-rate mortgages is liquid may be made under guidelines and standards established by the Board. Such securities may be deemed liquid if they can be disposed of promptly in the ordinary course of business at a value reasonably close to that used in the calculation of the Bond Fund’s net asset value per share.

Supranational Bank Obligations. The Bond Fund may invest in supranational bank obligations. Supranational banks are international banking institutions designed or supported by national governments to promote economic reconstruction, development or trade between nations (e.g., The World Bank). Obligations of supranational banks may be supported by appropriated but unpaid commitments of their member countries, and there is no assurance that these commitments will be undertaken or met in the future.

U.S. Government Obligations. Each of the Funds may purchase obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government and U.S. government agencies and instrumentalities. Obligations of certain agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. government, such as those of GNMA, are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury. Others, such as those of FNMA, are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury; and still others, such as those of FHLMC and the Student Loan Marketing Association, are supported only by the credit of the agency or instrumentality issuing the obligation. No assurance can be given that the U.S. government would provide financial support to U.S. government-sponsored instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do so by law. Examples of the types of U.S. government obligations that may be acquired by the Funds include without limitation U.S. Treasury bills, U.S. Treasury notes and U.S. Treasury bonds and the obligations of Federal Home Loan Banks, Federal Farm Credit Banks, Federal Land Banks, the Federal Housing Administration, Farmers Home Administration, Export-Import Bank of the United States, Small Business Administration, FNMA, GNMA, General Services Administration, Student Loan Marketing Association, Central Bank for Cooperatives, FHLMC, Federal Intermediate Credit Banks and Maritime Administration.

U.S. Treasury securities differ in their interest rates, maturities and times of issuance. Treasury bills have initial maturities of one year or less, Treasury notes have initial maturities of one to ten years and Treasury bonds generally have initial maturities greater than ten years. A portion of the U.S. Treasury securities purchased by the Funds may be “zero coupon” Treasury securities. These are U.S. Treasury notes and bonds which have been stripped of their unmatured interest coupons and receipts or which are certificates representing interests in such stripped debt obligations and coupons. Such securities are purchased at a discount from their face amount, giving the purchaser the right to receive their full value at maturity. A zero coupon security pays no interest to its holder during its life. Its value to an investor consists of the difference between its face value at the time of maturity and the price for which it was acquired, which is generally an amount significantly less than its face value (sometimes referred to as a “deep discount” price).

The interest earned on such securities is, implicitly, automatically compounded and paid out at maturity. While such compounding at a constant rate eliminates the risk of receiving lower yields upon reinvestment of interest if prevailing interest rates decline, the owner of a zero coupon security will be unable to participate in higher yields upon reinvestment of interest received if prevailing interest rates rise. For this reason, zero coupon securities are subject to substantially greater market price fluctuations during periods of changing prevailing interest rates than are comparable debt securities which make current distributions of interest. Current federal tax law requires that a holder (such as a Fund) of a zero coupon security accrue a portion of the discount at which the security was purchased as income each year even though the Fund receives no interest payments in cash on the security during the year.

Certain banks and brokerage firms have separated (“stripped”) the principal portions (“corpus”) from the coupon portions of the U.S. Treasury bonds and notes and sell them separately in the form of receipts or certificates representing undivided interests in these instruments (which instruments are generally held by a bank in a custodial or trust account). (See “Stripped Securities” above).

Although a Fund may hold securities that carry U.S. government guarantees, these guarantees do not extend to shares of the Fund itself and do not guarantee the market prices of the securities.

14

In recent periods, the values of U.S. government securities have been affected substantially by increased demand for them in the global markets. Increases or decreases in the demand for U.S. government securities may occur at any time and may result in increased volatility in the values of those securities.

Variable Amount Master Demand Notes. Each of the Funds may purchase variable amount master demand notes, which are unsecured instruments that permit the indebtedness thereunder to vary and provide for periodic adjustments in the interest rate. Although the notes are not normally traded and there may be no secondary market in the notes, a Fund may demand payment of the principal of the instrument at any time. The notes are not typically rated by credit rating agencies, but issuers of variable amount master demand notes must satisfy the same criteria as set forth above for issuers of commercial paper. If an issuer of a variable amount master demand note defaulted on its payment obligation, a Fund might be unable to dispose of the note because of the absence of a secondary market and might, for this or other reasons, suffer a loss to the extent of the default.

Variable or Floating Rate Instruments. To the extent a Fund may invest in debt obligations that Fund may invest in instruments with variable or floating interest rates. A floating rate security is a security the terms of which provide for the adjustment of its interest rate whenever a specified interest rate changes and that, at any time until the final maturity of the instrument or period remaining until the principal can be recovered through demand, can reasonably be expected to have a market value that approximates its amortized cost. A variable rate security is a security the terms of which provide for the adjustment of its interest rate on set dates (such as the last day of a month or calendar quarter) and that, upon each adjustment until the final maturity of the instrument or the period remaining until the principal amount can be recovered through a demand, can reasonably be expected to have a market value that approximates its amortized cost. Variable or floating rate obligations purchased by a Fund may have stated maturities in excess of a Fund’s maturity limitation if the Fund can demand payment of the principal of the instrument at least once during such period on not more than thirty days’ notice (this demand feature is not required if the instrument is guaranteed by the U.S. government or an agency thereof). These instruments may include variable amount master demand notes that permit the indebtedness to vary in addition to providing for periodic adjustments in the interest rates. The Adviser will consider the earning power, cash flows and other liquidity ratios of the issuers and guarantors of such instruments and, if the instrument is subject to a demand feature, will continuously monitor their financial ability to meet payment on demand. Where necessary to ensure that a variable or floating rate instrument is equivalent to the quality standards applicable to a Fund, the issuer’s obligation to pay the principal of the instrument will be backed by an unconditional bank letter or line of credit, guarantee or commitment to lend.

In determining average weighted portfolio maturity of a Fund, short-term variable or floating rate securities are deemed to have a maturity equal to the earlier of the period remaining until the next readjustment of the interest rate or the period remaining until the principal amount can be recovered through demand. For purposes of this paragraph, “short-term” with respect to a security means that the principal amount, in accordance with the terms of the security, must unconditionally be paid in 397 calendar days or less.

In determining average weighted portfolio maturity of a Fund, long-term variable or floating rate securities are deemed to have a maturity equal to the longer of the period remaining until the next readjustment of the interest rate or the period remaining until the principal amount can be recovered through demand. For purposes of this paragraph, “long-term” with respect to a security means that the principal amount of the security is scheduled to be paid in more than 397 days.

Variable or floating rate government securities where the variable rate of interest is readjusted no less frequently than every 762 days shall be deemed to have a maturity equal to the period remaining until the next interest rate readjustment.

When-Issued Securities, Forward Commitments or Delayed-Delivery Transactions, and To-Be-Announced Transactions. Each of the Funds may purchase securities on a when-issued, forward commitment or delayed-delivery, or to-be-announced (“TBA”) basis. When-issued, forward commitment or delayed-delivery, and TBA transactions permit a Fund to lock in a price or yield on a security, regardless of future changes in interest rates. When-issued purchases and forward commitments (known as delayed-delivery transactions) are commitments by a Fund to purchase or sell particular securities with payment and delivery to occur at a future date (often one or two months later). TBA transactions are commitments to buy or sell an approximate principal amount of mortgage-backed securities with specified terms on a forward basis. For example, in a TBA mortgage-backed transaction, the purchaser and the seller would agree upon the issuer, coupon rate and terms of the underlying mortgages, and the seller would not identify the specific underlying mortgages until the settlement date.

When a Fund enters these transactions, a Fund will designate on its records cash or liquid assets equal to the amount of the commitment on the settlement date. If a Fund designates portfolio securities for this purpose, the Fund may be required subsequently to designate additional assets in order to ensure that the value of such assets remains equal to the amount of the Fund’s commitments.

If deemed advisable as a matter of investment strategy, a Fund may dispose of or renegotiate a commitment after it is entered into, and may sell securities it has committed to purchase before those securities are delivered to the Fund on the settlement date. In these cases, a Fund may realize a taxable capital gain or loss. When a Fund has sold a security pursuant to one of these transactions, the Fund does not participate in further gains or losses with respect to the security.

15

When a Fund engages in when-issued and forward commitment transactions, it relies on the other party to consummate the transaction and is exposed to counterparty risk. Failure of such party to consummate the transaction may result in a Fund incurring a loss or missing an opportunity to obtain a price or yield considered to be advantageous. Recently adopted industry standards effectively require margining of bilaterally traded forward-settling MBS transactions such as TBAs. This development may mitigate counterparty risk but may increase a Fund’s expenses.

In some cases, a Fund may sell a security on a delayed delivery basis that it does not own, which may subject the Fund to additional risks generally associated with short sales. Among other things, the market price of the security may increase after the Fund enters into the delayed delivery transaction, and the Fund will suffer a loss when it purchases the security at a higher price in order to make delivery. In addition, the Fund may not always be able to purchase the security it is obligated to deliver at a particular time or at an acceptable price.

The market value of the securities underlying a when-issued purchase or a forward commitment to purchase securities, and any subsequent fluctuations in their market value, are taken into account when determining the net asset value of a Fund starting on the day the Fund agrees to purchase the securities. A Fund does not earn interest on the securities it has committed to purchase until they are paid for and delivered on the settlement date.

International and Foreign Investments

Foreign Securities - General. Each of the Funds may invest in foreign securities. Each Equity Fund (except the International Funds) and the Bond Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities. There is no limit on the International Funds’ investments in foreign securities investments; however, the Trivalent International Small-Cap Fund may not invest more than 20% of its assets in emerging market country companies or more than 5% of its assets in companies of any one emerging market country.

Income and gains on foreign securities may be subject to foreign withholding taxes. Investors should consider carefully the substantial risks involved in securities of companies and governments of foreign nations, which are in addition to the usual risks inherent in domestic investments. There may be less publicly available information about foreign companies comparable to the reports and ratings published about companies in the United States. Foreign companies are not generally subject to uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, and auditing practices and requirements may not be comparable to those applicable to United States companies. Foreign markets have substantially less trading volume than the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and securities of some foreign companies are less liquid and more volatile than securities of comparable United States companies. Commission rates in foreign countries, which are generally fixed rather than subject to negotiation as in the United States, are likely to be higher. In many foreign countries there is less government supervision and less regulation of stock exchanges, brokers, and listed companies than in the United States. Such concerns are particularly heightened in emerging market countries and Eastern European countries.

Issuers of foreign securities may also suffer from social, political and economic instability. Such instability can lead to illiquidity or price volatility in foreign securities traded on affected markets. Foreign issuers may be subject to the risk that during certain periods the liquidity of securities of a particular issuer or industry, or all the securities within a particular region, will be adversely affected by economic, market or political events, or adverse investor perceptions, which may cause temporary or permanent devaluation of the relevant securities. In addition, if a market for a foreign security closes as a result of such instability, it may be more difficult to obtain accurate independently-sourced prices for securities traded on these markets and may be difficult to value the effected foreign securities for extended periods of time.

In connection with the purchase or sale of securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Adviser endeavors to buy and sell foreign currencies on as favorable a basis as practicable. Some price spread on currency exchange (to cover service charges) may be incurred, particularly when a Fund changes investments from one country to another or when proceeds of the sale of Fund shares in U.S. dollars are used for the purchase of securities in foreign countries. Also, some countries may adopt policies that would prevent a Fund from transferring cash out of the country or withhold portions of interest and dividends at the source. There is the possibility of expropriation, nationalization or confiscatory taxation, withholding and other foreign taxes on income or other amounts, foreign exchange controls (which may include suspension of the ability to transfer currency from a given country), default in foreign government securities, political or social instability or diplomatic developments that could affect investments in securities of issuers in foreign nations.

Foreign securities markets have different clearance and settlement procedures, and in certain markets there have been times when settlements have been unable to keep pace with the volume of securities transactions, making it difficult to conduct such transactions. Delays in settlement could result in temporary periods when assets of a Fund are uninvested and no return is earned thereon. The inability of a Fund to make intended security purchases due to settlement problems could cause a Fund to miss attractive investment opportunities. Inability to dispose of portfolio securities due to settlement problems could result either in losses to a Fund due to subsequent declines in value of the portfolio security or, if the Fund has entered into a contract to sell the security, could result in possible liability to the purchaser. Furthermore, problems with the timely settlement of foreign securities transactions may impair a Fund’s ability to value those securities accurately.

16

A Fund may be affected either unfavorably or favorably by fluctuations in the relative rates of exchange between the currencies of different nations, by exchange control regulations and by indigenous economic and political developments. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates will influence values within a Fund from the perspective of U.S. investors, and may also affect the value of dividends and interest earned, gains and losses realized on the sale of securities, and net investment income and gains, if any, to be distributed to shareholders by a Fund. The rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and other currencies is determined by the forces of supply and demand in the foreign exchange markets. These forces are affected by the international balance of payments and other economic and financial conditions, government intervention, speculation and other factors. The Adviser will attempt to avoid unfavorable consequences and to take advantage of favorable developments in particular nations where, from time to time, it places a Fund’s investments.

The exercise of this flexible policy may include decisions to purchase securities with substantial risk characteristics and other decisions such as changing the emphasis on investments from one nation to another and from one type of security to another. Some of these decisions may later prove profitable and others may not. No assurance can be given that profits, if any, will exceed losses.

Foreign Securities — Emerging Market Countries. There are greater risks involved in investing in companies in emerging market countries than those associated with investments in developed foreign markets. These risks, among others, include (i) less social, political and economic stability; (ii) the small current size of the markets for such securities and the currently low or nonexistent volume of trading and lower levels of government regulation of the markets, which may result in a relative lack of liquidity, greater price volatility and higher risk of settlement disruption and means the market in an emerging market country may be dominated by a few issues or sectors or only a few investors; (iii) high levels of debt and the potential for future periods of severe currency devaluation, (iv) inflation or recession; certain national policies which may restrict a Fund’s investment opportunities, including restrictions on investment in issuers or industries deemed sensitive to national interest; (iv) foreign taxation; (v) the absence of developed legal structures governing private or foreign investment or allowing for judicial redress for injury to private property or resulting in disparate treatment of holders of the same class of shares of a company; (vi) the absence, in some cases, of a capital market structure or market-oriented economy; and (vii) the possibility that economic developments may be slowed or reversed by unanticipated political or social events in such countries. Investments in emerging market countries also may involve heightened risks of nationalization, expropriation and confiscatory taxation. The governments of a number of emerging market countries expropriated large amounts of private property in the past, in many cases without adequate compensation, and there can be no assurance that such expropriation will not occur in the future. In the event of such expropriation, a Fund could lose a substantial portion of any investments it has made in the affected countries. Further, no accounting standards exist in most emerging market countries and different or substantially less information about issuers may be available to investors. Finally, even though certain emerging market currencies may be convertible into United States dollars, the conversion rates may be artificial rather than reflecting their actual market values and may be adverse to a Fund.

Investment in emerging market countries may require special custody or other arrangements before investing. The securities settlement procedures in emerging market countries tend to be less sophisticated, and the Fund therefore may be required to deliver securities before receiving payment and may be unable to complete transactions during market disruptions. Limited liquidity, volume and information and heightened volatility may make emerging markets securities more difficult to fair value. The factors discussed above may result in increased transaction costs.

Emerging countries may be subject to a substantially greater degree of economic, political and social instability and disruption than more developed countries. This instability may result from, among other things: (i) authoritarian governments or military involvement in political and economic decision making, including changes or attempted changes in governments through extra-constitutional means; (ii) popular unrest associated with demands for improved political, economic or social conditions; (iii) internal insurgencies; (iv) hostile relations with neighboring countries; (v) ethnic, religious and racial disaffection or conflict; and (vi) the absence of developed legal structures governing foreign private investments and private property; (vii) the small current size of the markets for such securities and the currently low or nonexistent volume of trading, which result in a lack of liquidity and in greater price volatility; (viii) certain national policies which may restrict the Fund’s investment opportunities, including restrictions on investment in issuers or industries deemed sensitive to national interest; (ix) foreign taxation; (x) the absence, in some cases, of a capital market structure or market-oriented economy; or (xi) the possibility that economic developments may be slowed or reversed by unanticipated political or social events in such countries. Such economic, political and social instability could disrupt the principal financial markets in which the Fund may invest and adversely affect the value of the Fund’s assets. The Fund’s investments can also be adversely affected by any increase in taxes or by political, economic or diplomatic developments.

The economies of emerging countries may suffer from unfavorable growth of gross domestic product, rates of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources, self-sufficiency and balance of payments. Many emerging countries have experienced in the past, and continue to experience, high rates of inflation. In certain countries inflation has at times accelerated rapidly to hyperinflationary levels, creating a negative interest rate environment and sharply eroding the value of outstanding financial assets in those countries. Other emerging countries, on the other hand, have recently experienced deflationary pressures and are in economic recessions. In addition, many emerging countries are also highly dependent on international trade and exports, including exports of oil and other commodities to

17

sustain their economic growth. As a result, emerging countries are particularly vulnerable to downturns of the world economy. The recent global financial crisis tightened international credit supplies and weakened global demand for their exports. As a result, certain of these economies faced significant economic difficulties, which caused some emerging market economies to fall into recession. Although economies in certain emerging countries have recently shown signs of recovery, such recovery may be gradual as weak economic conditions in Europe, Asia and North America may continue to suppress demand for exports from emerging countries.

Depositary Receipts and New York Registered Shares. Each of the Equity Funds may invest in depositary receipts. Depositary receipts are instruments generally issued by domestic banks or trust companies that represent the deposits of a security of a foreign issuer. Generally, investors may pay a fee to convert depositary receipts to the home-market shares.

American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”), Holding Company Depositary Receipts (“HOLDRs”), New York Registry Shares (“NYRs”) and American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) are considered foreign securities. ADRs are traded in U.S. dollars on U.S. exchanges or over-the-counter, are typically issued by a U.S. bank or trust company, and evidence ownership of underlying foreign securities. Certain institutions issuing ADRs may not be sponsored by the issuer. A non-sponsored depositary may not provide the same shareholder information that a sponsored depositary is required to provide under its contractual arrangements with the issuer. EDRs are issued by European financial institutions and typically trade in Europe and GDRs are issued by European financial institutions and typically trade in both Europe and the United States. HOLDRs are fixed baskets of U.S. or foreign stocks that give an investor an ownership interest in each of the underlying stocks. NYRs, also known as Guilder Shares since most of the issuing companies are Dutch, are dollar-denominated certificates issued by foreign companies specifically for the U.S. market. ADSs are shares issued under a deposit agreement that represents an underlying security in the issuer’s home country. (An ADS is the actual share trading, while an ADR represents a bundle of ADSs.) Investments in these types of securities involve similar risks to investments in foreign securities.

Generally, foreign security depositary receipts in registered form are designed for use in the U.S. securities market and foreign security depositary receipts in bearer form are designed for use in securities markets outside the United States. Depositary receipts in which each of the Funds may invest are typically denominated in U.S. dollars, but may be denominated in other currencies. Depositary receipts may be issued pursuant to sponsored or unsponsored programs. In sponsored programs, an issuer has made arrangements to have its securities traded in the form of depositary receipts. In unsponsored programs, the issuer may not be directly involved in the creation of the program.

Although regulatory requirements with respect to sponsored and unsponsored programs are generally similar, in some cases it may be easier to obtain financial information from an issuer that has participated in the creation of a sponsored program. Accordingly, there may be less information available regarding issuers of securities underlying unsponsored programs and there may not be a correlation between such information and the market value of the depositary receipts. Depositary receipts evidencing ownership of a foreign corporation also involve the risks of other investments in foreign securities. For purposes of each of the Fund’s investment policies, a Fund’s investments in depositary receipts will be deemed to be investments in the underlying securities.

Unlike depositary receipts of foreign companies, NYRs are not receipts backed by the home market security, but represent dollar-denominated direct claims on the issuing company’s capital. Investment in NYRs, therefore, involves similar risks to investing directly in other types of foreign securities. Like depositary receipts, however, investors may pay a fee to convert to the home-market shares. In addition, during periods of social, political or economic unrest or instability in a country or region, the value of foreign securities traded on United States’ exchanges tied to such country or region, such as ADRs and GDRs, could be affected by, among other things, increasing price volatility, illiquidity or the closure of the primary market on which the securities underlying the foreign securities are traded.

Foreign Currency Transactions. In order to protect against a possible loss on investments resulting from a decline or appreciation in the value of a particular foreign currency against the U.S. dollar or another foreign currency or to facilitate local settlements or to protect against currency exposure in connection with distributions to Fund shareholders, each of the Funds is authorized, but is not required, to enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward currency contracts”) and spot currency contracts (“spot contracts”). Other currency transactions include currency futures, options on currencies, and currency swaps. Forward currency contracts involve a privately negotiated obligation to purchase or sell (with delivery generally required) a specified currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. Neither forward currency contracts nor spot contracts eliminate fluctuations in the values of portfolio securities but rather allow a Fund to establish a rate of currency exchange for a future point in time or purchase currency at a particular point in time. Spot contracts involve the purchase of foreign currency at the current rate, typically in an effort to facilitate transactions in foreign securities. A currency swap is an agreement to exchange cash flows based on the notional difference among two or more currencies and operates similarly to an interest rate swap as described in this SAI. These instruments are subject to the risk that the counterparty will default.

A Fund may enter into currency transactions with counterparties that have received (or the guarantors of the obligations that have received) a credit rating of A-1 or P-1 by S&P or Moody’s, respectively, or that have an equivalent rating from an NRSRO or are determined to be of equivalent credit quality by the Adviser. Ratings represent a rating agency’s opinion regarding the quality of the

18

security and are not a guarantee of quality. In addition, rating agencies may fail to make timely changes to credit ratings in response to subsequent events and a rating may become stale in that it fails to reflect changes in an issuer’s financial condition. See Appendix A to this SAI for a more detailed discussion of securities ratings.

A Fund’s dealings in forward currency contracts and other currency transactions such as futures, options, options on futures and swaps will be limited to hedging involving either specific transactions or portfolio positions. Transaction hedging is entering into a currency transaction with respect to specific assets or liabilities of the Fund, which will generally arise in connection with the purchase or sale of its portfolio securities or the receipt of income therefrom. Position hedging is entering into a currency transaction with respect to portfolio security positions denominated or generally quoted in that currency.

A Fund will not enter into a transaction to hedge currency exposure to an extent greater, after netting all transactions intended wholly or partially to offset other transactions, than the aggregate market value (at the time of entering into the transaction) of the securities held in its portfolio that are denominated or generally quoted in or currently convertible into such currency, other than with respect to proxy hedging as described below.

A Fund may also cross-hedge currencies by entering into transactions to purchase or sell one or more currencies that are expected to decline in value relative to other currencies to which the Fund has or in which the Fund expects to have portfolio exposure.

When the Adviser anticipates that a particular foreign currency may decline substantially relative to the U.S. dollar or other leading currencies, in order to reduce risk, a Fund may, but is not obligated to, enter into a forward currency contract to sell, for a fixed amount, the amount of foreign currency approximating the value of some or all of the Fund’s securities denominated in such foreign currency. Similarly, when the obligations held by a Fund create a short position in a foreign currency, a Fund may enter into a forward currency contract to buy, for a fixed amount, an amount of foreign currency approximating the short position. With respect to any forward currency contract, it will not generally be possible to match precisely the amount covered by that contract and the value of the securities involved due to the changes in the values of such securities resulting from market movements between the date the forward contract is entered into and the date it matures. With respect to any forward currency contract, it will not generally be possible to match precisely the amount covered by that contract and the value of the securities involved due to the changes in the values of such securities resulting from market movements between the date the forward contract is entered into and the date it matures. The projection of short-term currency market movement is extremely difficult, and the successful execution of a short-term hedging strategy is highly uncertain. Foreign currency transactions involve the risk that anticipated currency movements will not be accurately predicted and that the Fund’s hedging strategies will be ineffective. In addition, while forward currency contracts may offer protection from losses resulting from declines or appreciation in the value of a particular foreign currency, they also limit potential gains that might result from changes in the value of such currency. A Fund will also incur costs in connection with forward currency contracts and conversions of foreign currencies and U.S. dollars.

When entering into a contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency, a Fund may enter into a forward currency contract for the amount of the purchase or sale price to protect against variations, between the date the security is purchased or sold and the date on which payment is made or received, in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar or other foreign currency.

For deliverable forward currency contracts, at maturity, the Fund may either, sell the portfolio security and make delivery of the foreign currency, or it may retain the security and terminate its contractual obligation to deliver the foreign currency by purchasing an “offsetting” contract obligating it to purchase, on the same maturity date, the same amount of the foreign currency. It is impossible to forecast with absolute precision the market value of portfolio securities at the expiration of the forward currency contract. Accordingly, it may be necessary for the Fund to purchase additional foreign currency on the spot market (and bear the expense of such purchase) if the market value of the security is less than the amount of foreign currency the Fund is obligated to deliver and if a decision is made to sell the security and make delivery of the foreign currency. Conversely, it may be necessary to sell on the spot market some of the foreign currency received upon the sale of the portfolio security if its market value exceeds the amount of foreign currency the Fund is obligated to deliver.

If the Fund retains the portfolio security and engages in offsetting transactions, the Fund will incur a gain or a loss (as described below) to the extent that there has been movement in forward contract prices. If the Fund engages in an offsetting transaction, it may subsequently enter into a new forward contract to sell the foreign currency. Should forward prices decline during the period between the Fund’s entering into a forward currency contract for the sale of a foreign currency and the date it enters into an offsetting contract for the purchase of the foreign currency, the Fund will realize a gain to the extent the price of the currency it has agreed to sell exceeds the price of the currency it has agreed to purchase. Should forward prices increase, the Fund will suffer a loss to the extent the price of the currency it has agreed to purchase exceeds the price of the currency it has agreed to sell.

A Fund will cover its exposure to foreign currency transactions by segregating liquid assets in compliance with applicable requirements. A Fund will designate on its records cash or liquid assets equal to the amount of the Fund’s assets that could be required to consummate a forward currency contract at the settlement date except to the extent the contracts are otherwise “covered.” A forward currency

19

contract to sell a foreign currency is “covered” if a Fund owns the currency (or securities denominated in the currency) underlying the contract, or holds a forward currency contract (or call option) permitting a Fund to buy the same currency at a price no higher than a Fund’s price to sell the currency. A forward contract to buy a foreign currency is “covered” if a Fund holds a forward contract (or put option) permitting a Fund to sell the same currency at a price as high as or higher than the Fund’s price to buy the currency. Although a Fund is not required to designate cash or liquid assets on its records with regard to “covered” forward currency contracts, each Fund will monitor its leverage exposure to such contracts daily.

Beginning on the date a Fund enters into a currency swap transaction, the Fund will designate on its records cash or liquid assets sufficient to make payment for each currency swap transaction on the next payment date. This amount will be equal to the net difference between the present value of the payments a Fund expects to receive and the present value of the payments the Fund expects to make. However, a Fund is not required to designate any assets in connection with currency swap transactions if the present value of the payments it expects to receive is greater than the present value of the payments it expects to make. Alternatively, the Fund may segregate an amount equal to the notional amount of the contract. For the purpose of determining the adequacy of the securities designated in connection with forward currency contracts and currency swap transactions, the value of the designated securities will be marked to market daily. If the market value of such securities declines or the designated securities become illiquid, additional cash or liquid assets will be designated daily so that the value of the designated securities will equal the amount of such commitments by the Fund.

To reduce the effect of currency fluctuations on the value of existing or anticipated holdings of portfolio securities, the Fund may also engage proxy hedging. Proxy hedging is often used when the currency to which the Fund’s portfolio is exposed is difficult to hedge or to hedge against the dollar. Proxy hedging entails entering into a commitment or option to sell a currency whose changes in value are generally considered to be correlated to a currency or currencies in which some or all of the Fund’s portfolio securities are or are expected to be denominated, in exchange for U.S. dollars. The amount of the commitment or option would not exceed the value of the Fund’s securities denominated in correlated currencies. For example, if the Adviser considers that the Canadian dollar is correlated to the Australian dollar, the Fund holds securities denominated in Canadian dollars and the Adviser believes that the value of the Canadian dollar will decline against the U.S. dollar, the Adviser may enter into a commitment or option to sell Australian dollars and buy U.S. dollars. Currency hedging involves some of the same risks and considerations as other transactions with similar instruments. Currency transactions can result in losses to the Fund if the currency being hedged fluctuates in value to a degree or in a direction that is not anticipated. Further, there is the risk that the perceived correlation between various currencies may not be present or may not be present during the particular time that the Fund is engaging in proxy hedging. If a Fund enters into a currency hedging transaction, beginning on the date that the hedging transaction is consummated, the Fund will designate cash or liquid assets on its records in an amount sufficient to make payment for the foreign currency at the settlement date, to the extent that the Fund’s obligations are not otherwise “covered” through ownership of the underlying currency.

Currency transactions are subject to risks different from those of other portfolio transactions. Because currency control is of great importance to the issuing governments and influences economic planning and policy, purchases and sales of currency and related instruments can be negatively affected by government exchange controls, blockages, and manipulations or exchange restrictions imposed by governments. These can result in losses to the Fund if it is unable to deliver or receive currency or funds in settlement of obligations and could also cause hedges it has entered into to be rendered useless, resulting in full currency exposure as well as incurring transaction costs. Buyers and sellers of currency futures are subject to the same risks that apply to the use of futures generally. Further, settlement of a currency futures contract for the purchase of most currencies must occur at a bank based in the issuing nation. Trading options on currency futures is relatively new, and the ability to establish and close positions on such options is subject to the maintenance of a liquid market which may not always be available. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate based on factors extrinsic to that country’s economy.

Certain foreign currency forwards are now regulated by the CFTC and many are expected eventually to be subject to mandatory exchange trading and clearing. Central clearing is expected to decrease counterparty risk and increase liquidity, but will not make such transactions risk free and may require a Fund to incur increased expenses.

Special Risk Considerations of Investing in China. Investing in securities of Chinese issuers involves certain risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers, including, among others, more frequent trading suspensions and government interventions (including by nationalization of assets), currency exchange rate fluctuations or blockages, limits on the use of brokers and on foreign ownership, different financial reporting standards, higher dependence on exports and international trade, potential for increased trade tariffs, sanctions, embargoes and other trade limitations, custody risks, and potential adverse tax consequences. U.S. sanctions or other investment restrictions could preclude a Fund from investing in certain Chinese issuers or cause a Fund to sell investments at a disadvantageous time. Significant portions of the Chinese securities markets may become rapidly illiquid, as Chinese issuers have the ability to suspend the trading of their equity securities, and have shown a willingness to exercise that option in response to market volatility and other events.

20

The government of China provided new guidance to and placed restrictions on China-based companies raising capital offshore, including through associated offshore shell companies. These developments include government-led cybersecurity reviews of certain companies raising capital through offshore entities. In a number of sectors in China in which a Fund may invest, companies are not allowed to have foreign ownership and cannot directly list on exchanges outside of China. To raise money on such exchanges, many China-based operating companies are structured as Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs"). In such an arrangement, a China-based operating company often establishes an offshore shell company in another jurisdiction to issue stock to public shareholders. That shell company enters into service and other contracts with the China-based operating company, then issues shares on a foreign exchange, such as the NYSE. While the shell company has no equity ownership in the China-based operating company, for accounting purposes the shell company is able to consolidate the operating company into its financial statements. For an investor such as a Fund, this arrangement creates "exposure" to the China-based operating company, though only through a series of service contracts and other contracts.

Uncertainty about future actions by the government of China could significantly affect the operating company's financial performance and the enforceability of the contractual arrangements. The government of China could determine at any time and without notice that the underlying contractual arrangements on which control of the VIE is based violate Chinese law. In addition, if either the China-based company (or its officers, directors, or Chinese equity owners) breach those contracts with the U.S.-listed shell company, or Chinese law changes in a way that affects the enforceability of these arrangements, or those contracts are otherwise not enforceable under Chinese law, investors, such as a Fund, may suffer significant losses with little or no recourse available. Moreover, if the parties to these contracts do not meet their obligations as intended or there are effects on the enforceability of these arrangements from changes in Chinese law or practice, the U.S.-listed company may lose control over the China-based company, and investments in its securities may suffer significant economic losses. Additional risks, among others, could entail that a breach of the contractual agreements between the U.S.-listed company and the China-based VIE (or its officers, directors, or Chinese equity owners) will likely be subject to Chinese law and jurisdiction, and investments in the U.S.-listed company may be affected by conflicts of interest and duties between the legal owners of the China-based VIE and the stockholders of the U.S.-listed company.

Derivatives

The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that can involve investment techniques and risks different from, and in some respects greater than, those associated with investing in more traditional investments such as stocks and bonds. Derivatives may have a return that is tied to a formula based upon an interest rate, index or other reference measurement, which may differ from the return of a simple security of the same maturity. A formula may have a cap or other limitation on the rate of interest to be paid. Derivatives may have varying degrees of volatility at different times, or under different market conditions, and may perform in unanticipated ways. New regulation of derivatives may make them more costly, or may otherwise adversely affect their liquidity, value or performance.

Credit Default Swaps. The Bond Fund may enter into credit default swap agreements. Swap agreements are contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors for periods ranging from a few weeks to more than one year and may be negotiated bilaterally and traded OTC between two parties or, in some instances, must be transacted through a futures commission merchant and cleared through a clearing house that serves as central counterparty and exchange traded. A credit default swap agreement may have as reference obligations one or more securities that are not currently held by the Bond Fund. The protection “buyer” in a credit default contract is generally obligated to pay the protection “seller” an upfront or a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event, such as a default, on a reference obligation has occurred. If a credit event occurs, the seller generally must pay the buyer the “par value” (full notional value) of the swap in exchange for an equal face amount of deliverable obligations of the reference entity described in the swap, or the seller may be required to deliver the related net cash amount, if the swap is cash settled. The Bond Fund may be either the buyer or seller in the transaction. If the Bond Fund is a buyer and no credit event occurs, the Bond Fund may recover nothing if the swap is held through its termination date. However, depending on the terms of the swap, if a credit event occurs, the buyer generally may elect to receive the full notional value of the swap in exchange for an equal face amount of deliverable obligations of the reference entity whose value may have significantly decreased. As a seller, the Bond Fund generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. As the seller, the Bond Fund would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Bond Fund would be subject to exposure on the notional amount of the swap.

Credit default swap agreements involve greater risks than if the Bond Fund had invested in the reference obligation directly since, in addition to general market risks, illiquidity risk associated with a particular issuer, and issuer credit risk, each of which will be similar in either case, credit default swaps are often illiquid and are subject to counterparty credit, correlation, valuation, liquidity and leveraging risks. A buyer generally also will lose its investment and recover nothing should no credit event occur and the swap is held to its termination date. If a credit event were to occur, depending on the terms of the swap, the value of any deliverable obligation received by the seller, coupled with the upfront or periodic payments previously received, may be less than the full notional value it pays to the buyer, resulting in a loss of value to the seller.

Swaps are regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CTFC”). Use of swaps can cause the Bond Fund to be subject to additional regulatory requirements, which may generate additional Fund expenses. The Bond Fund may be subject to mandatory

21

central clearing and exchange-trading requirements for certain standardized credit default swaps (e.g., certain credit default swaps tied to an index). These requirements may reduce counterparty credit risk and increase liquidity, but will not make credit default swap transactions risk free and may require the Bond Fund to incur increased expenses to access the same types of swaps previously available on a bilateral basis. Depending on the swap, the margin required under the rules of the clearinghouse and by the futures commission merchant may be in excess of the collateral required to be posted by the Fund to support its obligations under a similar uncleared swap. Regulators are expected to adopt rules imposing certain margin requirements, including minimums on uncleared swaps, which could change this comparison.

The Bond Fund’s obligations under a credit default swap agreement will be accrued daily and offset against any amounts owing to the Bond Fund. For credit default swaps that involve the sale of credit protection (e.g., the Bond Fund takes on the on the risk of a default in an underlying bond), the Bond Fund will segregate an amount equal to the notional amount of the contract. For credit default swaps that involve the purchase of credit protection (e.g., the Bond Fund takes on the obligation effectively to pay a premium for insurance), the Bond Fund will segregate an amount equal to the face amount of unpaid premiums. Such segregation will ensure that the Bond Fund has assets available to satisfy its obligations with respect to the transaction and will limit any potential leveraging of the Bond Fund’s portfolio. Such segregation will not limit the Bond Fund’s exposure to loss.

Futures Transactions and Related Options. Each of the Funds may enter into futures contracts and options on futures contracts, as described below.

Futures Contracts. The Funds may purchase and sell futures contracts on securities and other instruments. Futures contracts are traded on organized exchanges regulated by the CFTC. Transactions on such exchanges are cleared through a clearing corporation, which guarantees the performance of the parties to each contract. The terms of futures contracts are set forth in the rules of the exchange on which the futures contracts are traded. The following provides a detailed description of the use of such futures contracts.

Description of Interest Rate Futures Contracts. Interest rate futures contracts are tied to interest-bearing instruments (such as U.S. Treasury notes) and may be used by the Funds to manage the risk that interest rates will move in an adverse direction. Selling an interest rate futures contract creates an obligation to deliver the specific type of financial instrument called for in the contract at a specific future time for a specified price. Purchasing a futures contract creates an obligation to take delivery of the specific type of financial instrument at a specific future time at a specific price for contracts that require physical delivery, or a net payment, for cash-settled contracts. The specific securities delivered or taken, respectively, at settlement date, would not be determined until or near that date.

Although interest rate futures contracts by their terms call for actual delivery or acceptance of securities, in most cases the contracts are closed out before the settlement date without making or taking delivery of securities. Closing out a futures contract is effected by the Fund’s entering into an offsetting futures contract for the same aggregate amount of the specific type of financial instrument and the same delivery date. Depending on the current price at which a Fund enters the offsetting transaction, the Fund will realize or pay the difference between the prices of the two contracts and realize a gain or a loss.

The Funds may sell an interest rate futures contract to maintain the income advantage from continued holding of a long-term bond while endeavoring to avoid part or all of the loss in market value that would otherwise accompany a decline in long-term securities prices. However in the event of an increase in the market value of the portfolio securities, including the portfolio security being protected, the benefit of this increase would be reduced by the loss realized on closing out the futures contract sale. If interest rate levels did not change, the Fund might incur a loss (which might be reduced by an offsetting transaction prior to the settlement date). In each transaction, transaction expenses would also be incurred.

The Funds may purchase an interest rate futures contract when they are not fully invested in long-term bonds but wish to defer for a time the purchase of long-term bonds in light of the availability of advantageous interim investments, e.g., shorter term securities whose yields are greater than those available on long-term bonds. A Fund’s basic motivation would be to maintain for a time the income advantage from investing in the short-term securities. A Fund would be endeavoring at the same time to eliminate the effect of all or part of an expected increase in market price of the long-term bonds that the Fund may purchase.

Use of Interest Rate Futures Contracts. Bond prices are established in both the cash market and the futures market. In the cash market, bonds are purchased and sold with payment for the full purchase price of the bond being made in cash, generally within five business days after the trade. In the futures market, a contract is made to purchase or sell a bond in the future for a set price on a certain future date. Historically, the prices for bonds established in the futures markets have tended to move generally in the aggregate in concert with the cash market prices and have maintained fairly predictable relationships. Accordingly, the Funds may use interest rate futures contracts as a defense, or hedge, against anticipated interest rate changes, selling of futures contracts to protect against expected increases in interest rates and purchasing futures contracts to offset the impact of interest rate declines.

Margin Payments. Unlike the purchase or sale of portfolio securities, no price is paid or received by a Fund upon the purchase or sale of a futures contract. Initially, the Fund will be required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents, known as

22

initial margin, based on the value of the contract. The initial margin is a performance bond or good faith deposit on the contract, which is returned to the Fund upon termination of the futures contract after all contractual obligations have been satisfied. On a daily basis, exchange rules require the calculation and transfer between the parties of that day’s gain or loss on the futures contract, a process known as “marking to market” and payment of “variation margin”. For example, when a Fund has purchased a futures contract and the price of the contract increases in response to a rise in the price of the underlying instruments, the Fund will be entitled to receive a variation margin payment equal to that increase in value. Conversely, where the Fund has purchased a futures contract and the price of the futures contract declines in response to a decrease in the underlying instrument, the Fund would be required to make a variation margin payment. At any time prior to expiration of a futures contract, the Adviser may close the position by taking an offsetting position, subject to the availability of a secondary market. A final determination of variation margin is then made and paid by the applicable party, and the Fund realizes a loss or gain on the transaction.

Cover Requirements. With respect to futures contracts that are not contractually required to “cash-settle,” a Fund must cover its open positions by designating or segregating on its records cash or liquid assets equal to the contract’s notional value. For futures contracts that are contractually required to “cash-settle,” however, a Fund is permitted to designate cash or liquid assets in an amount equal to the Fund’s next daily marked-to-market (net) obligation, if any (i.e., the Fund’s daily net liability) rather than the notional value. By designating assets equal to only its net obligation under cash-settled forwards or futures the Fund will have the ability to employ leverage to a greater extent than if the Fund were required to segregate assets equal to the full notional value of such contracts. Rule 18f-4 will not require a Fund to maintain segregated assets to meet its asset coverage requirements.

Risks of Transactions in Futures Contracts. There are several risks in connection with the use of futures by the Funds as hedging devices. One risk arises because of the imperfect correlation between movements in the price of futures and movements in the price of the instruments which are the subject of the hedge. The price of futures may move more than or less than the price of the instruments being hedged. If the price of futures moves less than the price of the instruments which are the subject of the hedge, the hedge will not be fully effective, but, if the price of the instruments being hedged has moved in an unfavorable direction, a Fund would be in a better position than if it had not hedged at all. If the price of the instruments being hedged has moved in a favorable direction, this advantage will be partially offset by the loss on the futures. If the price of the futures moves more than the price of the hedged instrument, the Fund will experience either a loss or gain on the futures contract that will not be completely offset by movements in the price of the instrument subject to the hedge. To compensate for the imperfect correlation of contrary movements in the price of instruments being hedged and movements in the price of futures contracts, the Fund may buy or sell futures contracts in a greater dollar amount than the dollar amount of instruments being hedged if the volatility over a particular time period of the prices of such instruments has been greater than the volatility over such time period of the futures, or if otherwise deemed to be appropriate by the Adviser. Conversely, the Funds may buy or sell fewer futures contracts if the volatility over a particular time period of the prices of the instruments being hedged is less than the volatility over such time period of the futures contract being used, or if otherwise deemed to be appropriate by the Adviser. It is also possible that, when a Fund sells futures contracts to hedge its portfolio against a decline in the market, the market may advance and the value of the futures instruments held in the Fund may decline.

Where futures contracts are purchased to hedge against a possible increase in the price of securities before a Fund is able to invest its cash (or cash equivalents) in an orderly fashion, it is possible that the market may decline instead. If the Fund then concludes not to invest its cash at that time because of concern as to possible further market decline or for other reasons, the Fund will realize a loss on the futures contract that is not offset by a reduction in the price of the securities that were to be purchased and will have incurred transaction fees.

In addition, the price of futures contracts may not correlate perfectly with movement in the cash market due to certain market distortions. For example, an increase in volume in futures contracts due to offsetting transactions near the expiration of a contract could distort the normal relationship between the cash and futures markets. Also, the liquidity of the futures market depends on participants entering into offsetting transactions rather than making or taking delivery. To the extent participants decide to make or take delivery, liquidity in the futures market could be reduced, thus producing distortions. These factors can mean that correct forecast of general market trends or interest rate movements by the Adviser may still not result in a successful hedging transaction over a short time frame.

Positions in futures may be closed out only on an exchange or board of trade that provides a secondary market for such futures contracts. There is no assurance that a liquid secondary market on any exchange or board of trade will exist for any particular contract or at any particular time. When there is no liquid market, it may not be possible to close a futures contract, and in the event of adverse price movements, the Funds would continue to be required to make daily cash payments of variation margin and make or take delivery of the underlying investment upon expiration of the futures contract.

Further, it should be noted that the liquidity of a secondary market in a futures contract may be adversely affected by “daily price fluctuation limits” established by exchanges which limit the amount of fluctuation in a futures contract price during a single trading day. Once the daily limit has been reached in the contract, no trades may be entered into at a price beyond the limit, thus preventing the liquidation of open futures positions. The trading of futures contracts is also subject to the risk of trading halts, suspensions,

23

exchange or clearing house equipment failures, government intervention, insolvency of a brokerage firm or clearing house or other disruptions of normal activity, which could at times make it difficult or impossible to liquidate existing positions or to recover equity.

Successful use of futures to hedge portfolio securities can protect against adverse market movements but also can reduce potential gain. For example, if a particular Fund has hedged against the possibility of a decline in the market adversely affecting securities held by it and securities prices increase instead, the Fund will lose part or all of the benefit to the increased value of its securities which it has hedged because it will have offsetting losses in its futures positions. In addition, in such situations, if the Fund has insufficient cash, it may have to sell securities to meet daily variation margin requirements. Such sales of securities may be, but will not necessarily be, at increased prices which reflect the rising market. The Funds may have to sell securities at a time when it may be disadvantageous to do so.

Options on Futures Contracts. The Funds may purchase and write options on the futures contracts described above. Buying a futures option gives the holder, in return for the premium paid, the right to buy from (call) or sell to (put) the writer of the option a futures contract at a specified price at a specified time or any time during the period of the option, depending on the terms of the options contract. Upon exercise, the writer of the option is obligated to pay the difference between the cash value of the futures contract and the exercise price. Like the buyer or seller of a futures contract, the holder, or writer, of an option has the right to terminate its position prior to the scheduled expiration of the option by selling or purchasing an option of the same series, at which time the person entering into the closing transaction will realize a gain or loss. A Fund will be required to deposit initial margin and variation margin with respect to put and call options on futures contracts written by it pursuant to requirements similar to those described above. Net option premiums received will be included as initial margin deposits.

Investments in futures options involve some of the same considerations that are involved in connection with investments in future contracts (for example, the existence of a liquid secondary market). In addition, the purchase or sale of an option also entails the risk that changes in the value of the underlying futures contract will not correspond to changes in the value of the option purchased. Depending on the pricing of the option compared to either the futures contract upon which it is based, or upon the price of the securities being hedged, an option may or may not be less risky than ownership of the futures contract or such securities. In general, the market prices of options can be expected to be more volatile than the market prices on underlying futures contracts. Compared to the purchase or sale of futures contracts, however, the purchase of call or put options on futures contracts may frequently involve less potential risk to the Fund because the maximum amount at risk is the premium paid for the options (plus transaction costs). The writing of an option on a futures contract involves risks similar to those risks relating to the sale of futures contracts.

Interest Rate Swap Transactions. The Bond Fund may enter into interest rate swap agreements for purposes of attempting to obtain a particular desired return at a lower cost to the Bond Fund than if the Bond Fund had invested directly in an instrument that yielded that desired return. Interest rate swap transactions involve the exchange by the Bond Fund with another party of commitments to pay or receive interest, such as an exchange of fixed rate payments in exchange for floating rate payments. Swaps are regulated by the CFTC. Use of swaps can cause the Bond Fund to be subject to additional regulatory requirements, which may generate additional Fund expenses. The Bond Fund is subject to mandatory central clearing and exchange-trading requirements for many standardized interest rate swaps. These requirements may reduce counterparty credit risk and increase liquidity, but will not make interest rate swap transactions risk free and may require the Bond Fund to incur increased expenses to access the same types of swaps previously available on a bilateral basis. Depending on the swap, the margin required under the rules of the clearinghouse and by the futures commission merchant may be in excess of the collateral required to be posted by the Bond Fund to support its obligations under a similar uncleared swap. Regulators are expected to adopt rules imposing certain margin requirements, including minimums on uncleared swaps, which could change this comparison.

Certain federal income tax requirements may limit the Bond Fund’s ability to engage in certain interest rate transactions. Gains from transactions in interest rate swaps distributed to shareholders of the Bond Fund will be taxable as ordinary income or, in certain circumstances, as long-term capital gains to the shareholders.

For cash settled swaps, beginning on the date the Bond Fund enters into a swap transaction, the Bond Fund will designate on its records cash or liquid assets sufficient to make payment for each swap transaction on the next payment date. This amount will be equal to the net difference between the present value of the payments the Bond Fund expects to receive and the present value of the payments the Bond Fund expects to make and will be monitored on a daily basis. Alternatively, the Bond Fund may segregate an amount equal to the notional amount of the contract. Such segregation will ensure that the Fund has assets available to satisfy its obligations with respect to the transaction and will limit any potential leveraging of the Bond Fund’s portfolio. Such segregation will not limit the Bond Fund’s exposure to loss. The Bond Fund is not required to designate any assets in connection with swap transactions if the present value of the payments it expects to receive is greater than the present value of the payments it expects to make.

Interest rate swaps are also subject to correlation, valuation, liquidity and leveraging risks. The use of interest rate swaps is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. If the Adviser is incorrect in its forecasts of market values, interest rates and other applicable factors, the investment performance of the Bond Fund would be lower than it would have been if interest rate swaps were not used. The swaps market has

24

grown substantially in recent years with a large number of banks and investment banking firms acting both as principals and as agents utilizing standardized swap documentation. As a result, the interest rate swaps market has become relatively liquid in comparison with other similar instruments traded in the interbank market. It is possible that developments in the swaps market, including potential additional government regulation, could adversely affect the Bond Fund.

Options. Each of the Funds may purchase and sell put and call options, but will primarily write covered call options, purchase put options on securities held by the applicable Fund, or otherwise engage in options transactions that do not leverage the Fund. Such options may relate to particular securities and may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange and issued by the Options Clearing Corporation. Options trading is a highly specialized activity that entails greater than ordinary investment risk. Options on particular securities may be more volatile than the underlying securities, and therefore, on a percentage basis, an investment in options may be subject to greater fluctuation than an investment in the underlying securities themselves. For risks associated with options on foreign securities, see “Foreign Currency Transactions” above.

A call option for a particular security gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and the writer of the option the obligation to sell, the underlying security at the stated exercise price at any time prior to the expiration of the option, regardless of the market price of the security. The premium paid to the writer is in consideration for undertaking the obligations under the option contract. A put option for a particular security gives the purchaser the right to sell, and the writer of the option the obligation to buy, the underlying security at the stated exercise price at any time prior to the expiration date of the option, regardless of the market price of the security.

The writer of an option that wishes to terminate its obligation may effect a “closing purchase transaction.” This is accomplished by buying an option of the same series as the option previously written. The effect of the purchase is that the writer’s position will be canceled by the clearing corporation. However, a writer may not effect a closing purchase transaction after being notified of the exercise of an option. Likewise, an investor who is the holder of an option may liquidate its position by effecting a “closing sale transaction.” The cost of such a closing purchase transaction plus transaction costs may be greater than the premium received upon the original option, in which event the Fund will have incurred a loss in the transaction. There is no guarantee in any instance that either a closing purchase transaction or a closing sale transaction can be effected.

Effecting a closing sale transaction in the case of a written call option will permit the Funds to write another call option on the underlying security with either a different exercise price or expiration date or both. Also, effecting a closing sale transaction will permit the cash or proceeds from the concurrent sale of any securities subject to the option to be used for other Fund investments. If a Fund desires to sell a particular security from its portfolio on which it has written a call option, it will effect a closing sale transaction prior to or concurrent with the sale of the security.

The Funds may write options in connection with buy-and-write transactions; that is, the Funds may purchase a security and then write a call option against that security. The Funds will determine the exercise price of the call based upon the expected price movement of the underlying security. The exercise price of a call option may be below (“in-the-money”), equal to (“at-the-money”) or above (“out-of-the-money”) the current value of the underlying security at the time the option is written. Buy-and-write transactions using in-the-money call options may be used when it is expected that the price of the underlying security will remain flat or decline moderately during the option period. Buy-and-write transactions using out-of-the-money call options may be used when it is expected that the premiums received from writing the call option plus the appreciation in the market price of the underlying security up to the exercise price will be greater than the appreciation in the price of the underlying security alone. If the call options are exercised in such transactions, the maximum gain to the relevant Fund will be the premium received by it for writing the option, adjusted upwards or downwards by the difference between the Fund’s purchase price of the security and the exercise price. If the options are not exercised and the price of the underlying security declines, the amount of such decline will be offset in part, or entirely, by the premium received.

In the case of writing a call option on a security, the option is “covered” if a Fund owns the security underlying the call or has an absolute and immediate right to acquire that security without additional cash consideration, such as conversion or exchange of other securities held by it, or, if additional cash consideration is required, the Fund has designated or “segregated” on its records cash or liquid assets equal in value to such amount. A call option is covered if a Fund holds a call on the same security or index as the call written where the exercise price of the call held is (1) equal to or less than the exercise price of the call written, or (2) greater than the exercise price of the call written provided the Fund designates on its records cash or liquid assets equal to the difference. A Fund will limit its investment in uncovered put or call options purchased or written, measured by the exercise price in the case of a put or market value in the case of a call, by the Fund to 33 1/3% of the Fund’s total assets. A Fund will write put options only if they are covered by (1) designating on its records cash or liquid assets in an amount not less than the exercise price of the option at all times during the option period or (2) selling short the underlying security at a price at least equal to the strike price or purchasing a put option with a strike price at least equal to the strike price of the put option sold.

The writing of covered put options is similar in terms of risk/return characteristics to buy-and-write transactions. If the market price of the underlying security rises or otherwise is above the exercise price, the put option will expire worthless and the relevant Fund’s gain will be limited to the premium received. If the market price of the underlying security declines or otherwise is below the exercise

25

price, the Fund may elect to close the position or take delivery of the security at the exercise price and the Fund’s return will be the premium received from the put option minus the amount by which the market price of the security is below the exercise price.

The Funds may purchase put options to hedge against a decline in the value of their portfolios. By using put options in this way, a Fund will reduce any profit it might otherwise have realized in the underlying security by the amount of the premium paid for the put option and by transaction costs. The Funds may purchase call options to hedge against an increase in the price of securities that they anticipate purchasing in the future. The premium paid for the call option plus any transaction costs will reduce the benefit, if any, realized by a Fund upon exercise of the option, and, unless the price of the underlying security rises sufficiently, the option may expire worthless to the Fund.

When a Fund purchases an option, the premium paid by it is recorded as an asset of the Fund. When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the net premium (the premium less the commission) received by the Fund is included in the liability section of the Fund’s statement of assets and liabilities as a deferred credit. The amount of this asset or deferred credit will be subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option purchased or written. The current value of the traded option is the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale, the average of the closing bid and asked prices. If an option purchased by the Fund expires unexercised the Fund realizes a loss equal to the premium paid. If the Fund enters into a closing sale transaction on an option purchased by it, the Fund will realize a gain if the premium received by the Fund on the closing transaction is more than the premium paid to purchase the option, or a loss if it is less. If an option written by a Fund expires on the stipulated expiration date or if the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, it will realize a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the net premium received when the option is sold) and the deferred credit related to such option will be eliminated. If an option written by a Fund is exercised, the proceeds of the sale will be increased by the net premium originally received and the Fund will realize a gain or loss.

There are several risks associated with transactions in options on securities and indices. For example, there are significant differences between the securities and options markets that could result in an imperfect correlation between these markets, causing a given transaction not to achieve its objectives. An option writer that is unable to effect a closing purchase transaction will not be able to sell the underlying security (in the case of a covered call option) or liquidate the segregated account (in the case of a secured put option) until the option expires or the optioned security is delivered upon exercise with the result that the writer in such circumstances will be subject to the risk of market decline or appreciation in the security during such period.

There is no assurance that a Fund will be able to close an unlisted option position. Furthermore, unlisted options are not subject to the protections afforded purchasers of listed options by the Options Clearing Corporation, which performs the obligations of its members who fail to do so in connection with the purchase or sale of options.

In addition, a liquid secondary market for particular options, whether traded over-the-counter or on a national securities exchange (an “Exchange”), may be absent for reasons which include the following: there may be insufficient trading interest in certain options; restrictions may be imposed by an Exchange on opening transactions or closing transactions or both; trading halts, suspensions or other restrictions may be imposed with respect to particular classes or series of options or underlying securities; unusual or unforeseen circumstances may interrupt normal operations on an Exchange; the facilities of an Exchange or the Options Clearing Corporation may not at all times be adequate to handle current trading volume; or one or more Exchanges could, for economic or other reasons, decide or be compelled at some future date to discontinue the trading of options (or a particular class or series of options), in which event the secondary market on that Exchange (or in that class or series of options) would cease to exist, although outstanding options that had been issued by the Options Clearing Corporation as a result of trades on that Exchange would continue to be exercisable in accordance with their terms.

Stock Index Futures, Options on Stock and Bond Indices and Options on Stock and Bond Index Futures Contracts. Each of the Funds may enter into stock index futures contracts, and purchase and sell options on stock and bond indices and options on stock and bond index futures contracts as described in the applicable Prospectus. The Funds may use such options on futures contracts in connection with its hedging strategies in lieu of purchasing and selling the underlying futures or purchasing and writing options directly on the underlying securities or indices. For example, the Funds may purchase put options or write call options on stock and bond index futures, rather than selling futures contracts, in anticipation of a decline in general stock or bond market prices or purchase call options or write put options on stock or bond index futures, rather than purchasing such futures, to hedge against possible increases in the price of securities which such Funds intend to purchase. Index futures and options are subject to the same types of risks as are described under “Futures Transactions and Related Options” above.

A stock index assigns relative values to the stocks included in the index and the index fluctuates with changes in the market values of the stocks included. Some stock index futures contracts are based on broad market indices, such as the Standard & Poor’s® 500 or the New York Stock Exchange Composite Index. In contrast, certain exchanges offer futures contracts on narrower market indices, such as the Standard & Poor’s® 100 or indices based on an industry or market segment, such as oil and gas stocks. A stock index futures contract is an agreement in which one party agrees to deliver to the other an amount of cash equal to a specific dollar amount times the difference between the value of a specific stock index at the close of the last trading day of the contract and the price at which the agreement is made. No physical delivery of securities is made.

26

A bond index assigns relative values of the bonds included in the index and the index fluctuates with changes in the market values of the bonds included. The Chicago Board of Trade has designed a futures contract based on the Bond Buyer Municipal Bond Index. This Index is composed of 40 term revenue and general obligation bonds and its composition is updated regularly as new bonds meeting the criteria of the Index are issued and existing bonds mature. The Index is intended to provide an accurate indicator of trends and changes in the municipal bond market. Each bond in the Index is independently priced by six dealer-to-dealer municipal bond brokers daily. The 40 prices then are averaged and multiplied by a coefficient. The coefficient is used to maintain the continuity of the Index when its composition changes.

Options on stock and bond indices are similar to options on specific securities, described above, except that, rather than the right to take or make delivery of the specific security at a specific price, an option on a stock or bond index gives the holder the right to receive, upon exercise of the option, an amount of cash if the closing level of that stock or bond index is greater than, in the case of a call option, or less than, in the case of a put option, the exercise price of the option. This amount of cash is equal to such difference between the closing price of the index and the exercise price of the option expressed in dollars times a specified multiple. The writer of the option is obligated, in return for the premium received, to make delivery of this amount. Unlike options on specific securities, all settlements of options on stock or bond indices are in cash, and gain or loss depends on general movements in the stocks included in the index rather than price movements in particular stocks.

A Fund will sell index futures contracts in order to offset a decrease in market value of its portfolio securities that might otherwise result from a market decline. A Fund will purchase index futures contracts in anticipation of purchases of securities. In a substantial majority of these transactions, a Fund will purchase such securities upon termination of the long futures position, but a long futures position may be terminated without a corresponding purchase of securities.

In addition, a Fund may utilize index futures contracts in anticipation of changes in the composition of its portfolio holdings. For example, in the event that a Fund expects to narrow the range of industry groups represented in its holdings it may, prior to making purchases of the actual securities, establish a long futures position based on a more restricted index, such as an index comprised of securities of a particular industry group. A Fund may also sell futures contracts in connection with this strategy, in order to protect against the possibility that the value of the securities to be sold as part of the restructuring of the portfolio will decline prior to the time of sale.

For example, if the Adviser expects general stock or bond market prices to rise, it might enter into a long stock index futures contract, or purchase a call option on that index, as a hedge against an increase in prices of particular securities it ultimately wants to buy. If in fact the index does rise, the price of the particular securities intended to be purchased may also increase, but that increase would be offset in part by the increase in the value of the relevant Fund’s futures contract or index option resulting from the increase in the index. If, on the other hand, the Adviser expects general stock or bond market prices to decline, it might take a short position in a futures contract, or purchase a put option, on the index. If that index does in fact decline, the value of some or all of the securities in the relevant Fund’s portfolio may also be expected to decline, but that decrease would be offset in part by the increase in the value of the Fund’s position in such futures contract or put option.

Other Investments and Investment Practices

Borrowing. Each Fund is authorized to borrow money as permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted or modified by regulatory authority having jurisdiction from time to time. Borrowing may be unsecured. No Fund intends to borrow money for leveraging purposes.

The 1940 Act requires a mutual fund to maintain continuous asset coverage of 300% of the amount borrowed. If the 300% asset coverage declines as a result of market fluctuations or other reasons, a Fund may be required to sell some of its portfolio holdings within three days to reduce the debt and restore the 300% asset coverage, even though it may be disadvantageous from an investment standpoint to sell securities at that time. Borrowed funds are subject to interest costs that may or may not be offset by amounts earned on the borrowed funds. A Fund may also be required to maintain minimum average balances in connection with such borrowing or to pay a commitment or other fees to maintain a line of credit; either of these requirements would increase the cost of borrowing over the stated interest rate. Each Fund may, in connection with permissible borrowings, transfer, as collateral, securities owned by the Fund. However, borrowing may be unsecured.

Convertible Securities. Each Fund may invest in convertible securities, which include bonds or preferred stocks that may be converted (exchanged) into the common stock of the issuing company within a specified time period for a specified number of shares. Convertible securities offer the Fund a way to participate in the capital appreciation of the common stock into which the securities are convertible, while earning higher current income than is available from the common stock. However, convertible securities generally have less potential for gain or loss than common stocks. Furthermore, the yield provided by convertible securities is generally lower than comparable non-convertible securities. In addition, convertible securities may be sensitive to changes in interest rates. Therefore, the value of a convertible security may rise as interest rates fall and may decrease as interest rates rise.

Guaranteed Investment Contracts and Funding Agreements. The Bond Fund may make limited investments in guaranteed investment contracts (“GICs”) or funding agreements issued by U.S. insurance companies. GICs and funding agreements are normally general obligations of the issuing insurance company. In some cases funding agreements may be part of an insurance company’s separate account, but they still benefit from a guarantee from the general account. Pursuant to a GIC or a funding agreement, the Bond Fund makes cash contributions to a deposit fund of the insurance company’s general account. The insurance company then credits the Fund on a periodic basis with interest that is based on an index. The Bond Fund will only purchase GICs or funding agreements from insurance companies that, at the time of purchase, have assets of $1 billion or more and meet quality and credit standards established by the Adviser pursuant to guidelines approved by the Board. Generally, GICs and funding agreements are not assignable or transferable without the permission of the issuing insurance company, and an active secondary market in GICs and funding agreements does not currently exist. Therefore, GICs and funding agreements will normally be considered illiquid investments, and will be acquired subject to the Bond Fund’s limitation on illiquid investments. As such, GICs are generally subject to the same risks as other illiquid investments.

Illiquid Investments. Each of the Funds may invest up to 15% of the value of its net assets (determined at time of acquisition) in investments that are illiquid. If, after the time of acquisition, events cause this limit to be exceeded, the Fund will take steps to reduce the aggregate amount of illiquid investments within a time frame deemed to be in the best interest of the Fund, in addition to complying with other regulatory requirements.

Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act (the “Liquidity Rule”) requires the Funds to establish a liquidity risk management program. The Liquidity Rule defines an “illiquid investment” as an investment that a Fund reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the security. Such investments include, but are not limited to, time deposits and repurchase agreements with maturities longer than seven days. Investments that may be resold under the Liquidity Rule, securities offered pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, or investments otherwise subject to restrictions or limitations on resale under the Securities Act shall not be deemed illiquid solely by reason of being unregistered. Victory Capital, under oversight of the Board, determines whether a particular investment is deemed to be liquid based on the trading markets for the specific security and other factors.

It is possible that unregistered securities purchased by a Fund in reliance upon Rule 144A could have the effect of increasing the level of the Fund’s illiquidity to the extent that qualified institutional buyers become, for a period, uninterested in purchasing these securities.

Unexpected episodes of illiquidity, including due to market or political factors, instrument or issuer-specific factors and/or unanticipated outflows, may limit a Fund's ability to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period. To meet redemption requests during periods of illiquidity, a Fund may be forced to sell an investment at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions.

Initial Public Offerings (“IPOs”). The Funds may invest in securities that are made available in IPOs. IPO securities may be volatile, and a Fund cannot predict whether its investments in IPOs will be successful. Securities issued through an initial public offering (IPO) can experience an immediate drop in value if the demand for the securities does not continue to support the offering price. Information about the issuers of IPO securities is also difficult to acquire since they are new to the market and may not have lengthy operating histories. Any short-term trading in connection with IPO investments could produce higher trading costs and adverse tax consequences. As a Fund grows in size, the positive effect of any IPO investments on the Fund may decrease.

Money Market Instruments. Each Fund may invest in money market instruments, which are high-quality, short-term instruments, including commercial paper, bankers’ acceptances and negotiable certificates of deposit of banks or savings and loan associations, short-term corporate obligations and short-term U.S. government securities.

Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”). Each Equity Fund may invest in master limited partnerships in which ownership interests are publicly traded. The majority of MLPs operate in the energy sector, particularly in energy infrastructure industries such as pipelines, which provide stable income streams. Fees that pipelines are able to charge are highly regulated by the U.S. government; therefore, these types of MLPs are subject to the risk that regulatory action will decrease fee levels.

Generally, an MLP is operated under the supervision of one or more managing general partners. Limited partners (including a Fund that invests in an MLP) are not involved in the day-to-day management of the partnership. They are allocated income and capital gains associated with the partnership project in accordance with the terms established in the partnership agreement. Limited partners do not have voting rights in an MLP. The risks of investing in an MLP are generally those inherent in investing in a partnership as opposed to a corporation. For example, state law governing partnerships is often less restrictive than state law governing corporations. Accordingly, there may be fewer protections afforded investors in an MLP than investors in a corporation.

Since MLPs are structured as partnerships they generally do not pay corporate income taxes. Taxes are only paid when distributions are received, thus avoiding the double taxation faced by investors in corporations. MLPs face stringent provisions including the requirement to pay minimum quarterly distributions to limited partners, by contract. Thus, the distributions of MLPs tend to be

28

predictable and provide current income to investors. As with high-yielding equities, MLPs are often more appealing to investors at times of low interest rates, as this results in higher yields for MLPs relative to bonds and money market instruments. Increasing interest rates would result in lower relative yields versus other alternative assets.

MLPs generally enjoy the same tax treatment as limited liability companies (“LLCs”) taxed as partnerships; that is, they are non-taxable entities with a tax shield on distributions, thus avoiding the double taxation of corporate profits. If MLPs were no longer able to pass through taxes to limited partners a large benefit of investing in MLPs would be removed.

The general partner in an MLP has what are called Incentive Distribution Rights (“IDRs”). IDRs are terms defined in the MLP partnership, which allow for the general partner to claim a higher proportion of incremental amounts of the distribution payments as these payments grow over specified levels. This is designed to provide general partners with a strong incentive to increase distributions, further enhancing the appeal of MLPs based on large, growing distributions. On the other hand, it raises the cost of equity for the MLP and can dilute the ownership claim of limited partners.

The profitability of MLPs could be adversely affected by changes in the regulatory environment. Most MLPs’ assets are heavily regulated by federal and state governments in diverse matters, such as the way in which certain MLP assets are constructed, maintained and operated and the prices MLPs may charge for their services. Such regulation can change over time in scope and intensity. For example, a particular by-product of an MLP process may be declared hazardous by a regulatory agency and unexpectedly increase production costs. Moreover, many state and federal environmental laws provide for civil as well as regulatory remediation, thus adding to the potential exposure an MLP may face. Extreme weather patterns could result in significant volatility in the supply of energy and power. This volatility may create fluctuations in commodity prices and earnings of companies in the energy infrastructure industry and could adversely impact the value of the interests in an MLP.

Other Investment Companies. Each Fund may invest in securities issued by other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). As a shareholder of another investment company, a Fund will bear its pro rata portion of the other investment company’s expenses, including investment advisory and administration fees. These expenses would be in addition to the expenses each Fund bears directly in connection with its own operations. Except as described in the following paragraphs, each Fund currently intends to limit its investments in securities issued by other investment companies so that, as determined immediately after a purchase of such securities is made: (i) not more than 5% of the value of a Fund’s total assets will be invested in the securities of any one investment company; (ii) not more than 10% of the value of its total assets will be invested in the aggregate in securities of investment companies as a group; and (iii) not more than 3% of the outstanding voting stock of any one investment company will be owned by a Fund.

These limitations do not apply to investments in investment companies through a master-feeder type arrangement or to investments made in reliance on an exemption granted by the SEC. In addition, to the extent allowed by law or regulation, each Fund may invest its assets in securities of investment companies that are money market funds, including those that may be affiliated with the Adviser, in excess of the limits discussed above provided that either: the acquiring Fund pays no “sales charge” or “service fee” (as each of those terms is defined in the FINRA Conduct Rules); or (2) the Adviser waives its advisory fee in an amount necessary to offset any such sales charge or service fee.

For purposes of this investment restriction, a “money market fund” is either: (1) an open-end investment company registered under the 1940 Act and regulated as a money market fund in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act; or (2) a company that is exempt from registration as in investment company under Sections 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act and that: (a) limits its investments to those permitted under Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act; and (b) undertakes to comply with all the other requirements of Rule 2a-7, except that, if the company has no board of directors, the company’s investment adviser performs the duties of the board of directors.

Each of the Funds may invest in ETFs that seek to track the composition and/or performance of specific indexes or portions of specific indexes. ETFs are traded on a securities exchange. The market prices of index-based investments will fluctuate in accordance with both changes in the underlying portfolio securities of the investment company and also due to supply and demand of the investment company’s shares on the exchange upon which their shares are traded. Index-based investments may not replicate or otherwise match the composition or performance of their specified index due to transaction costs, among other things.

Pursuant to an order issued by the SEC exempting certain ETFs from Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act (SEC Order and Rule 12d1-4 under the 1940 Act ), in addition to procedures approved by the Board, each Fund may invest in certain ETFs in excess of the 5% and 10% limits described above, provided it complies with the conditions of the relevant SEC Order, as it may be amended, and any other applicable investment limitations.

Rights and Warrants. Each Equity Fund may purchase common stock rights and warrants separately or may receive them as part of a unit or attached to securities purchased. Warrants are securities that give the holder the right, but not the obligation, to purchase equity issues of the company issuing the warrants, or a related company, at a fixed price either on a date certain or during a set time period. Subscription rights normally have a short life span to expiration.

29

At the time of issuance, the cost of a warrant is substantially less than the cost of the underlying security itself, and price movements in the underlying security are generally magnified in the price movements of the warrant. This effect enables the investor to gain exposure to the underlying security with a relatively low capital investment but increases an investor’s risk in the event of a decline in the value of the underlying security and can result in a complete loss of the amount invested in the warrant. In addition, the price of a warrant tends to be more volatile than, and may not correlate exactly to, the price of the underlying security. If the market price of the underlying security is below the exercise price of the warrant on its expiration date, the warrant will generally expire without value.

The equity security underlying a warrant is authorized at the time the warrant is issued or is issued together with the warrant. Investing in warrants can provide a greater potential for profit or loss than an equivalent investment in the underlying security, and, thus, can be a speculative investment. The value of a warrant may decline because of a decline in the value of the underlying security, the passage of time, changes in interest rates or in the dividend or other policies of the company whose equity underlies the warrant or a change in the perception as to the future price of the underlying security, or any combination thereof. Warrants generally pay no dividends and confer no voting or other rights other than to purchase the underlying security.

Real Estate-Related Securities. Each Equity Fund may invest in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). None of the Funds will invest in real estate directly. REITs pool investors’ funds for investment primarily in income producing real estate or real estate loans or interests. A REIT is generally not subject to U.S. federal income tax on income distributed to shareholders if it complies with several requirements relating to its organization, ownership, assets, and income and a requirement that it distribute to its shareholders at least 90% of its taxable income (other than net capital gains) for each taxable year.

REITs can generally be classified as equity REITs, mortgage REITs and hybrid REITs. Equity REITs, which invest the majority of their assets directly in real property, derive their income primarily from rents. Equity REITs can also realize capital gains by selling properties that have appreciated in value. Mortgage REITs, which invest the majority of their assets in real estate mortgages, derive their income primarily from interest payments. Hybrid REITs combine the characteristics of both equity REITs and mortgage REITs.

REITs may be subject to risks similar to those associated with the direct ownership of real estate (in addition to securities markets risks). These include declines in the value of real estate, risks related to general and local economic conditions, dependency on management skill, heavy cash flow dependency, possible lack of availability of mortgage funds, overbuilding, extended vacancies of properties, increased competition, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, changes in zoning laws, losses due to costs resulting from the clean-up of environmental problems, liability to third parties for damages resulting from environmental problems, casualty or condemnation losses, limitations on rents, changes in neighborhood values, the appeal of properties to tenants and changes in interest rates. In addition to these risks, equity REITs may be affected by changes in the value of the underlying property owned by the trusts, while mortgage REITs may be affected by the quality of any credit extended. Further, equity and mortgage REITs are dependent upon management skills and generally may not be diversified. Equity and mortgage REITs are also subject to heavy cash flow dependency, defaults by borrowers and self-liquidation. In addition, equity and mortgage REITs could possibly fail to qualify for the beneficial tax treatment available to REITs under the Code, as amended, or to maintain their exemptions from registration under the 1940 Act. The above factors may also adversely affect a borrower’s or a lessee’s ability to meet its obligations to the REIT. In the event of a default by a borrower or lessee, the REIT may experience delays in enforcing its rights as a mortgagee or lessor and may incur substantial costs associated with protecting investments. In addition, as REITs generally pay a higher rate of dividends (on a pre-tax basis) than operating companies, to the extent application of the Fund’s investment strategy results in the Fund investing in REIT shares, the percentage of the Fund’ s dividend income received from REIT shares will likely exceed the percentage of the Fund’ s portfolio which is comprised of REIT shares.

Short Sales. Each Fund may engage in short sales, including short sales against the box. Short sales are transactions in which a Fund sells a security it does not own in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security. A short sale against the box is a short sale where at the time of the sale, a Fund owns or has the right to obtain securities equivalent in kind and amounts. To complete a short sale transaction, a Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. A Fund then is obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing it at the market price at the time of replacement. The price at such time may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by a Fund. Until the security is replaced, a Fund is required to pay to the lender amounts equal to any interest or dividends which accrue during the period of the loan. To borrow the security, a Fund also may be required to pay a premium, which would increase the cost of the security sold. There will also be other costs associated with short sales.

A Fund will incur a loss as a result of the short sale if the price of the security increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which the Fund replaces the borrowed security. A Fund will realize a gain if the security declines in price between those dates. This result is the opposite of what one would expect from a cash purchase of a long position in a security. The amount of any gain will be decreased, and the amount of any loss increased, by the amount of any premium or amounts in lieu of interest or dividends a Fund may be required to pay in connection with a short sale, and will be also decreased by any transaction or other costs.

Until a Fund replaces a borrowed security in connection with a short sale, a Fund will (a) designate on its records as collateral cash or liquid assets at such a level that the designated assets plus any amount deposited with the broker as collateral will equal the current

30

value of the security sold short or (b) otherwise cover its short position in accordance with applicable law. The amount designated on a Fund’s records will be marked to market daily and at no time will the sum of the amount so designated and the amount deposited with the broker as collateral be less than the market value of the securities at the time they sold short. This may limit a Fund’s investment flexibility, as well as its ability to meet redemption requests or other current obligations.

There is no guarantee that a Fund will be able to close out a short position at any particular time or at an acceptable price. During the time that a Fund is short a security, it is subject to the risk that the lender of the security will terminate the loan at a time when a Fund is unable to borrow the same security from another lender. If that occurs, a Fund may be “bought in” at the price required to purchase the security needed to close out the short position, which may be a disadvantageous price.

Short sales also involve other costs. A Fund must normally repay to the lender an amount equal to any dividends or interest that accrues while the loan is outstanding. In addition, to borrow the security, a Fund may be required to pay a premium. A Fund also will incur transaction costs in effecting short sales. The amount of any ultimate gain for a Fund resulting from a short sale will be decreased, and the amount of any ultimate loss will be increased, by the amount of premiums, dividends, interest or expenses a Fund may be required to pay in connection with the short sale.

In addition to the short sales discussed above, a Fund may make short sales “against the box,” a transaction in which a Fund enters into a short sale of a security that a Fund owns or a security equivalent in kind and amount to the security sold short that the Fund has the right to obtain at no additional cost. A Fund does not immediately deliver the securities sold and is said to have a short position in those securities until delivery occurs. If a Fund effects a short sale of securities against the box at a time when it has an unrealized gain on the securities, it may be required to recognize that gain as if it had actually sold the securities (as a “constructive sale”) on the date it effects the short sale. However, such constructive sale treatment may not apply if a Fund closes out the short sale with securities other than the appreciated securities held at the time of the short sale and if certain other conditions are satisfied.

Temporary Defensive Measures. Each Fund typically minimizes its cash holdings in an effort to provide investors with full market exposure to the particular asset class or classes represented by the Fund. This approach, which avoids trying to time broad market movements, allows investors to make their own asset allocation decisions. From time to time, however, each Fund temporarily may, but is not required to, invest all or any portion of its assets in short-term obligations, such as U.S. government obligations, high-quality money market instruments and exchange-traded funds, in order to meet redemption requests or as a defensive measure in response to adverse market or economic conditions.

Interfund Borrowing and Lending. The Funds have obtained an exemptive order from the SEC allowing them to lend money to, and borrow money from, each other pursuant to a master interfund lending agreement (the “Interfund Lending Program”). Under the Interfund Lending Program, the Funds may lend or borrow money for temporary purposes directly to or from one another (an “Interfund Loan”), subject to meeting the conditions of the SEC exemptive order. All Interfund Loans would consist only of uninvested cash reserves that the lending Fund otherwise would invest in short-term repurchase agreements or other short-term instruments.

If a Fund has outstanding bank borrowings, any Interfund Loans to the Fund would: (a) be at an interest rate equal to or lower than that of any outstanding bank borrowing, (b) be secured at least on an equal priority basis with at least an equivalent percentage of collateral to loan value as any outstanding bank loan that requires collateral, (c) have a maturity no longer than any outstanding bank loan (and in any event not over seven days), and (d) provide that, if an event of default occurs under any agreement evidencing an outstanding bank loan to the Fund, that event of default by the Fund will automatically (without need for action or notice by the lending Fund) constitute an immediate event of default under the master interfund lending agreement, entitling the lending Fund to call the Interfund Loan immediately (and exercise all rights with respect to any collateral), and that such call will be made if the lending bank exercises its right to call its loan under its agreement with the borrowing Fund.

A Fund may borrow on an unsecured basis through the Interfund Lending Program only if the relevant borrowing Fund’s outstanding borrowings from all sources immediately after the interfund borrowing total 10% or less of its total assets, provided that if the borrowing Fund has a secured loan outstanding from any other lender, including but not limited to another Fund, the lending Fund’s Interfund Loan will be secured on at least an equal priority basis with at least an equivalent percentage of collateral to loan value as any outstanding loan that requires collateral. If a borrowing Fund’s total outstanding borrowings immediately after an Interfund Loan would be greater than 10% of its total assets, the Fund may borrow through the Interfund Lending Program only on a secured basis. A Fund may not borrow under the Interfund Lending Program or from any other source if its total outstanding borrowings immediately after the borrowing would be more than 33 1/3% of its total assets or any lower threshold provided for by the Fund’s fundamental restriction or nonfundamental policy.

No Fund may lend to another Fund through the Interfund Lending Program if the loan would cause the lending Fund’s aggregate outstanding loans through the Interfund Lending Program to exceed 15% of its current net assets at the time of the loan. A Fund’s Interfund Loans to any one Fund shall not exceed 5% of the lending Fund’s net assets. The duration of Interfund Loans will be limited to the time required to receive payment for securities sold, but in no event more than seven days, and for purposes of this condition, loans effected within seven days of each other will be treated as separate loan transactions. Each Interfund Loan may be called on one

31

business day’s notice by a lending Fund and may be repaid on any day by a borrowing Fund. The limitations detailed above and the other conditions of the SEC exemptive order permitting interfund borrowing and lending are designed to minimize the risks associated with interfund borrowing and lending for both a lending Fund and a borrowing Fund. However, no borrowing or lending activity is without risk. When a Fund borrows money from another Fund, there is a risk that the Interfund Loan could be called on one business day’s notice or not renewed, in which case the Fund may have to borrow from a bank at higher rates if an Interfund Loan is not available from another Fund. Interfund Loans are subject to the risk that a borrowing Fund could be unable to repay the loan when due, and a delay in repayment to a lending Fund or from a borrowing Fund could result in a lost investment opportunity or additional costs. No Fund may borrow more than the amount permitted by its investment limitations. The Interfund Lending Program is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board.

Lending Portfolio Securities. A Fund may from time to time lend securities from their portfolios to broker-dealers, banks, financial institutions and institutional borrowers of securities and receive collateral in the form of cash or U.S. government obligations. Under current practices (which are subject to change), a Fund must receive initial collateral in the amount at least equal to the minimum initial collateral (e.g. 102% for U.S. equity securities and 105% for non-U.S. securities loaned), marked to market daily. This collateral must be valued daily and should the market value of the loaned securities increase, the borrower must furnish additional collateral to a Fund sufficient to maintain the value of the collateral equal to at least 100% of the value of the loaned securities. The lending agent receives a pre-negotiated percentage of the net earnings on the investment of the collateral. A Fund will not lend portfolio securities to: (a) any “affiliated person” (as that term is defined in the 1940 Act) of any Fund; (b) any affiliated person of the Adviser; or (c) any affiliated person of such an affiliated person. During the time portfolio securities are on loan, the borrower will pay a Fund any dividends or interest paid on such securities plus any fee negotiated between the parties to the lending agreement. Loans will be subject to termination by a Fund or the borrower at any time. While a Fund will not have the right to vote securities on loan, they intend to terminate loans and regain the right to vote if that is considered important with respect to the investment. A Fund will enter into loan arrangements only with broker-dealers, banks or other institutions that either the Fund’s adviser or the lending agent has determined are creditworthy under guidelines established by the Board. Although these loans are fully collateralized, there are risks associated with securities lending. A Fund’s performance could be hurt if a borrower defaults or becomes insolvent, or if a Fund wishes to sell a security before its return can be arranged. The return on invested cash collateral will result in gains and losses for the Fund. A Fund will limit its securities lending to 33-1/3% of its total assets.

Additional Risk Factors and Special Considerations

New or Smaller Funds. Funds with limited operating history and/or small asset base may involve additional risk. For example, there can be no assurance that a new or smaller Fund will grow to or maintain an economically viable size. Should a Fund not grow to or maintain an economically viable size, the Board may determine to liquidate the Fund. Although the interests of shareholders in each Fund are the principal concern of the Board, in the event the Board determines to liquidate a Fund, the timing of any possible liquidation might not be favorable to certain individual shareholders.

Impact of Large Redemptions and Purchases of Fund Shares. Occasionally, shareholders may make large redemptions or purchases of Fund shares, which may cause the Fund to have to sell securities or invest additional cash. These transactions may adversely affect the Fund's performance and increase transaction costs. In addition, large redemption requests may exceed the cash balance of the Fund and result in credit line borrowing fees and/or overdraft charges to the Fund until the sales of portfolio securities necessary to cover the redemption request settle.

Merger, Reorganization or Liquidation of Funds. The Board may determine to merge or reorganize a Fund or a class of shares, or to close and liquidate a Fund or a class of shares at any time, which may have adverse consequences for shareholders. In the event of the liquidation of a Fund, shareholders will receive a liquidating distribution in cash or in-kind equal to their proportionate interest in the Fund. Although the interests of shareholders in each Fund are the principal concern of the Board, in the event the Board determines to liquidate a Fund or a class of shares, the timing of any possible liquidation might not be favorable to certain individual shareholders. A liquidating distribution may be a taxable event to certain shareholders, resulting in a taxable gain or loss for tax purposes, depending upon such shareholder’s basis in his or her shares of the Fund. A shareholder of a liquidating Fund or a class of shares will not be entitled to any refund or reimbursement of expenses borne, directly or indirectly, by the shareholder (such as sales loads, account fees, or fund expenses), and a shareholder may receive an amount in liquidation less than the shareholder’s original investment.

S&P 500 Index Fund. Traditional methods of fund investment management typically involve relatively frequent changes in a portfolio of securities on the basis of economic, financial and market analysis. The S&P 500 Index Fund is not managed in this manner. Instead, the Adviser purchases and sells securities for the S&P 500 Index Fund in an attempt to produce investment results that substantially duplicate the investment composition and performance of the S&P 500® Index, taking into account redemptions, sales of additional S&P 500 Index Fund shares, and other adjustments as described below.

The S&P 500 Index Fund generally expects to hold all of the stocks included in the S&P 500® Index on the basis of each stock’s weighted capitalization in such index. The Adviser does not intend to screen securities for investment by the S&P 500 Index Fund by traditional methods of financial and market analysis; however the Adviser may remove stocks of companies which exhibit extreme

32

financial distress or which may impair for any reason the S&P 500 Index Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. If an issuer drops in ranking, or is eliminated entirely from the S&P 500® Index, the Adviser may be required to sell some or all of the common stock of such issuer then held by the S&P 500 Index Fund. Such sales of portfolio securities may be made at times when, if the Adviser were not required to effect purchases and sales of portfolio securities in accordance with the S&P 500® Index, the securities might not otherwise be sold. These sales may result in lower prices for such securities than may have been realized or in losses that may not have been incurred if the Adviser were not required to effect the purchases and sales. The failure of an issuer to declare or pay dividends, potentially materially adverse legal proceedings against an issuer, the existence or threat of defaults materially and adversely affecting an issuer’s future declaration and payment of dividends, or the existence of other materially adverse credit factors will not necessarily be the basis for the disposition of portfolio securities, unless such event causes the issuer to be eliminated entirely from the S&P 500® Index.

Redemptions of a substantial number of shares of the S&P 500 Index Fund could reduce the number of issuers represented in the S&P 500 Index Fund’s investment portfolio, increase trading costs and/or increase hedging activities (such as the purchase or sale of options on indices or futures contracts), which could, in turn, adversely affect the accuracy with which the Fund tracks the performance of the S&P 500® Index.

While the S&P 500 Index Fund will invest primarily in the common stocks that constitute the S&P 500® Index in accordance with the relative capitalization as described above, it is possible that the S&P 500 Index Fund will from time to time receive, as part of a “spin-off” or other corporate reorganization of an issuer included in the S&P 500® Index, securities that are themselves outside the S&P 500® Index. Such securities will be disposed of by the S&P 500 Index Fund in due course consistent with the Fund’s investment objective.

In addition, the S&P 500 Index Fund may invest in Standard & Poor’s Depositary Receipts (“SPDRs”). SPDRs are securities that represent ownership in a SPDR Trust, unit investment trusts which are intended to provide investment results that generally correspond to the price and yield performance of an S&P® index. SPDR interest holders are paid a “Dividend Equivalent Amount” that corresponds to the amount of cash dividends accruing to the securities in the SPDR Trust, net of certain fees and expenses charged to the Trust. Because of these fees and expenses, the dividend yield for SPDRs may be less than that of the index it represents.

The S&P 500 Index Fund may also purchase put and call options on the S&P 500® Index that are traded on national securities exchanges. In addition, the S&P 500 Index Fund may enter into transactions involving futures contracts (and futures options) on the S&P 500® Index and may purchase securities of other investment companies that are structured to seek a similar correlation to the S&P 500® Index. These transactions are effected in an effort to have fuller exposure to price movements in the S&P 500® Index pending investment of purchase orders or while maintaining liquidity to meet potential shareholder redemptions. Transactions in option and stock index futures contracts may be desirable to hedge against a price movement in the S&P 500® Index at times when the S&P 500 Index Fund is not fully invested in stocks that are included in the S&P 500® Index. For example, by purchasing a futures contract, the S&P 500 Index Fund may be able to reduce the potential that cash inflows will disrupt its ability to track the S&P 500® Index, since the futures contracts may serve as a temporary substitute for stocks which may then be purchased in an orderly fashion. Similarly, because futures contracts only require a small initial margin deposit, the S&P 500 Index Fund may be able, as an effective matter, to be fully invested in the S&P 500® Index while keeping a cash reserve to meet potential redemptions.

The S&P 500 Index Fund is not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by S&P®. S&P® makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, to the owners of the Fund or any member of the public regarding the advisability of investing in securities generally or in the Fund particularly or the ability of the S&P 500® Index to track general stock market performance. S&P®’s only relationship to the S&P 500 Index Fund is the licensing of certain trademarks and trade names of S&P® and of the indexes which are determined, composed and calculated by S&P® without regard to the Fund. S&P® has no obligation to take the needs of the Fund or the owners of the S&P 500 Index Fund into consideration in determining, composing or calculating the indexes. S&P® is not responsible for and has not participated in the determination of the price of the S&P 500 Index Fund or the timing of the issuance or sale of the S&P 500 Index Fund or in the determination or calculation of the equation by which the S&P 500 Index Fund is converted into cash.

Recent Market Conditions and Events. Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely affect issuers in another country or region. Geopolitical and other risks, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, political or economic dysfunction within some nations, public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. Changes in trade policies and international trade agreements could affect the economies of many countries in unpredictable ways. Likewise, systemic market dislocations of the kind that occurred during the financial crisis that began in 2008, if repeated, would be highly disruptive to economies and markets, adversely affecting individual companies and industries, securities markets, interest rates, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the value of a Fund’s investments. In addition, the expanded influence of social media platforms on the market, combined with the access to low cost retail brokerage, can exacerbate the volatility of particular instruments. Some countries, including the United States, are adopting more protectionist trade policies and are moving away from the tighter financial industry regulations that followed the 2008 financial crisis, which may also affect the value of a Fund’s investments.

Political events within the United States at times have resulted, and may in the future result, in a shutdown of government services, which could negatively affect the U.S. economy, decrease the value of a Fund’s investments, increase uncertainty in or impair the operation of the United States or other securities markets and degrade investor and consumer confidence, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree.

Certain illnesses spread rapidly and have the potential to significantly and adversely affect the global economy and the value of a Fund’s investments. Outbreaks of illnesses and diseases, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), influenza of various types and, most recently, COVID-19, or other similarly infectious diseases, may have material adverse impacts on a Fund. Epidemics and/or pandemics, such as COVID-19, have and may further result in, among other things, border closings and other significant travel restrictions and disruptions, significant disruptions to business operations, supply chains and customer activity, significant challenges to healthcare service preparation and delivery, and quarantines and stay-at-home orders, as well as general concern and uncertainty that has negatively affected the economic environment. These impacts have caused significant volatility and declines in global financial markets, which have caused losses for investors. The impact of COVID-19, and other epidemics and/or pandemics that may arise in the future, has negatively affected and may continue to affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the global securities and commodities markets, including their liquidity, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen at the present time. Historical patterns of correlation among asset classes may break down in unanticipated ways during times of high volatility, disrupting investment programs and potentially causing losses. The impact of public health crises, including COVID-19, may last for an extended period of time.

The U.S. federal government and certain foreign central banks have taken a variety of unprecedented actions to stimulate the economy and calm the financial markets and may continue to do so, but the ultimate impact of these efforts and interventions is uncertain. In the future, the U.S. federal government or other governments may take actions that could affect the overall economy as well as the securities in which a Fund invests, the markets in which they trade, or the issuers of such securities, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen at the present time. Governmental and quasi-governmental authorities and regulators throughout the world, such as the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”), have in the past responded to major economic disruptions with a variety of significant fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs, and dramatically lower interest rates. Certain of those policy changes have been or are being implemented or considered in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Fed has spent hundreds of billions of dollars to keep credit flowing through short-term money markets since mid-September 2019 when a shortage of liquidity caused a spike in overnight borrowing rates, and again in 2020 and 2021 with large stimulus initiatives intended to respond to economic stresses stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of infectious diseases in developing and emerging market countries, however, may be greater due to less established health care systems and fewer government resources to bolster their economies. Public health crises may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries.

In the past, instability in the global capital markets resulted in disruptions in liquidity in the debt capital markets, significant write-offs in the financial services sector, the repricing of credit risk in credit markets and the failure of major domestic and international financial institutions. Precise interest rate predictions are difficult to make, and interest rates may change unexpectedly and dramatically in response to extreme changes in market or economic conditions. As a result, the value of fixed income securities may vary widely under certain market conditions and may result in heightened market volatility and a decline in the value of a Fund’s portfolio. Changes in government policies or central banks could negatively affect the value and liquidity of a Fund’s investments and cause it to lose money. The markets could react strongly to expectations for changes in government policies, which could increase volatility, especially if the market’s expectations are not borne out. There can be no assurance that the initiatives undertaken by governments and central banks will be successful.

COVID-19, and future epidemics or pandemics, could also impair the information technology and other operational systems upon which a Fund’s service providers rely, and could otherwise disrupt the ability of a Fund’s service providers to perform essential tasks. These could impair a Fund’s ability to maintain operational standards (such as with respect to satisfying redemption requests), disrupt

34

the operations of a Fund’s service providers, and negatively impact a Fund’s performance. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on either specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in a Fund being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or accurately value its investments.

Markets generally and the energy sector specifically, including MLPs and energy companies in which a Fund may invest, have also been adversely impacted by reduced demand for oil and other energy commodities as a result of the slowdown in economic activity resulting from the spread of COVID-19 and by price competition among key oil producing countries. Recently, global oil prices have declined significantly and experienced significant volatility, including a period where an oil-price futures contract fell into negative territory for the first time in history, as demand for oil has slowed and oil storage facilities reach their storage capacities. Although the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and other oil-producing countries have responded, continued oil price volatility may adversely impact MLPs and energy infrastructure companies. Such companies’ growth prospects and ability to pay dividends may be negatively impacted, which could adversely impact a Fund's performance. Additionally, an extended period of reduced oil prices may significantly lengthen the time the energy sector would need to recover after a stabilization of prices.

Some countries, including the United States, are adopting more protectionist trade policies and are moving away from the tighter financial industry regulations that followed the 2008 financial crisis. The United States may also be considering significant new investments in infrastructure and national defense which, coupled with potentially lower federal taxes, could lead to sharply increased government borrowing and higher interest rates. The exact shape of these policies is still being considered through the political process, but the equity and debt markets may react strongly to expectations, which could increase volatility, especially if the market’s expectations for changes in government policies are not borne out.

High public debt in the United States and other countries creates ongoing systemic and market risks and policymaking uncertainty. There may be additional increases in the amount of debt due to the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Interest rates have been unusually low in recent years in the United States and abroad, and central banks have reduced rates further in an effort to combat the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Because there is little precedent for this situation, it is difficult to predict the impact on various markets of a significant rate increase or other significant policy changes, whether brought about by U.S. policy makers or by dislocations in world markets. Extremely low or negative interest rates may become more prevalent. To the extent a Fund has a bank deposit or holds a debt instrument with a negative interest rate to maturity, a Fund would generate a negative return on that investment. Similarly, negative rates on investments by a fund that is a money market fund would make it difficult, if not impossible, for the fund to maintain a stable $1 net asset value per share without financial support from the fund’s sponsor or other persons. There is no assurance that such support would be provided, which could lead to losses on investments in a Fund. While negative yields may reduce the demand, liquidity and valuation of fixed income investments, investors may be willing to continue to purchase such investments for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, price insensitivity, arbitrage opportunities across fixed income markets or rules-based investment strategies. If negative interest rates become more prevalent, investors may over time seek to reallocate assets to other income-producing assets or equity investments that pay a dividend, which may cause the price of such instruments to rise while triggering a corresponding decrease in yield and the value of debt instruments over time. Over the longer term, rising interest rates may present a greater risk than has historically been the case due to the current period of low rates and the effect of government fiscal and monetary policy initiatives and potential market reaction to those initiatives.

Some countries where economic conditions are still recovering from the 2008 crisis are perceived as still fragile. The crisis caused strains among countries in the euro-zone that have not been fully resolved, and it is not yet clear what measures, if any, EU or individual country officials may take in response. Withdrawal of government support, failure of efforts in response to the strains, or investor perception that such efforts are not succeeding could adversely impact the value and liquidity of certain securities and currencies.

In addition, global climate change may have an adverse effect on property and security values. A rise in sea levels, an increase in powerful windstorms and/or a storm-driven increase in flooding could cause coastal properties to lose value or become unmarketable altogether. Large wildfires driven by high winds and prolonged drought may devastate entire communities and may be very costly to any business found to be responsible for the fire or conducting operations in affected areas. These losses could adversely affect corporate borrowers and mortgage lenders, the value of mortgage-backed securities, the bonds of municipalities that depend on tax revenues and tourist dollars generated by such properties, and insurers of the property and/or of corporate, municipal or mortgage-backed securities. Since property and security values are driven largely by buyers’ perceptions, it is difficult to know the time period over which these effects might unfold. Economists warn that, unlike previous declines in the real estate market, properties in affected coastal zones may never recover their value. Regulatory changes and divestment movements tied to concerns about climate change could adversely affect the value of certain land and the viability of industries whose activities or products are seen as accelerative to climate change.

Some market participants have expressed concern that passively-managed index funds and other indexed products inflate the value of their component securities. If the component securities in such indices decline in value for this and other reasons, the value of a Fund’s investments in these securities will also decline.

35

Brexit. The United Kingdom ("UK") ceased to be a member of the European Union ("EU") on January 31, 2020 ("Brexit"). During a prescribed period (the "Transition Period"), certain transitional arrangements were in effect, such that the UK continued to be treated, in most respects, as if it were still a member of the EU, and generally remained subject to EU law. The Transition Period ended on December 31, 2020. On December 24, 2020, the EU and the UK reached an agreement in principle on the terms of certain agreements and declarations governing the ongoing relationship between the EU and the UK, including the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement (the "Agreement"), and on December 30, 2020, the Council of the European Union adopted a decision authorizing the signature of the Agreement and its provisional application for a limited period between January 1, 2021 to February 28, 2021, pending ratification of the Agreement by the European Parliament. The Agreement is limited in its scope primarily to the trade of goods, transport, energy links and fishing, and uncertainties remain relating to certain aspects of the UK's future economic, trading and legal relationships with the EU and with other countries. The actual or potential consequences of Brexit, and the associated uncertainty, could adversely affect economic and market conditions in the UK, in the EU and its member states and elsewhere, and could contribute to instability in global financial markets.

The impact of such events on the Funds is difficult to predict but they may adversely affect the return on the Funds and their investments. There may be detrimental implications for the value of a Fund's investments, its ability to enter into transactions or to value or realize such investments or otherwise to implement its investment program. It is possible that a Fund's investments may need to be restructured to enable a Fund's objectives to be pursued fully. This may increase costs or make it more difficult for a Fund to pursue its investment objective.

The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) Transition. LIBOR has historically been the principal floating rate benchmark in the financial markets. However, as a result of longstanding regulatory initiatives, LIBOR is being discontinued. Its discontinuation has affected and will continue to affect the financial markets generally and may also affect a Fund's operations, finances and investments specifically. The date of discontinuation will vary depending on the LIBOR currency and tenor. In March 2021, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA"), which is the regulator of the LIBOR administrator, announced that LIBOR settings will cease to be provided by any administrator or will no longer be representative after specified dates, which will be June 30, 2023, in the case of the principal U.S. dollar LIBOR tenors (overnight and one, three, six and 12 month), and December 31, 2021, in all other cases (i.e., one week and two month U.S. dollar LIBOR and all tenors of non-U.S. dollar LIBOR). Thus, many existing LIBOR contracts will transition to another benchmark after June 30, 2023 or, in some cases, after December 31, 2021. For some existing LIBOR-based obligations, the contractual consequences of the discontinuation of LIBOR may not be clear. In the United States, there have been various efforts to identify a set of alternative reference interest rates for U.S. dollar LIBOR. The market has generally coalesced around recommendations from the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (the "ARRC") convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The ARRC has recommended that U.S. dollar LIBOR be replaced by rates based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus, in the case of existing LIBOR contracts and obligations, a spread adjustment. As a consequence of the FCA announcement described above (and a related announcement from the LIBOR administrator), the spread adjustments for different tenors of U.S. dollar LIBOR have been set. The FCA and certain U.S. regulators have emphasized that, despite expected publication of U.S. dollar LIBOR through June 30, 2023, no new contracts using U.S. dollar LIBOR should be entered into after December 31, 2021 and that, for certain purposes, market participants should transition away from U.S. dollar LIBOR sooner. Although the foregoing reflects the likely timing and certain details and consequences of the LIBOR discontinuation, there is no assurance that LIBOR, of any particular currency and tenor, will continue to be published until any particular date or in any particular form. Financial markets, particularly the trading market for LIBOR-based obligations, may be adversely affected by the discontinuation of LIBOR, the remaining uncertainties regarding its discontinuation, the alternative reference rates that will be used when LIBOR is discontinued (including SOFR-based rates) and other reforms related to LIBOR. There is no assurance that SOFR-based rates, as modified by an applicable spread adjustment, will be the economic equivalent of U.S. dollar LIBOR. SOFR-based rates will differ from U.S. dollar LIBOR, and the differences may be material. As a result of the LIBOR discontinuation, a Fund's performance or net asset value may be adversely affected. In addition, SOFR-based rates or other alternative reference rates may be an ineffective substitute for LIBOR, resulting in prolonged adverse market conditions for a Fund.

Risks Related to Cybersecurity. The Funds and their service providers have administrative and technical safeguards in place with respect to information security. Nevertheless, the Funds and their service providers are potentially susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from a cyber-attack as the Funds are highly dependent upon the effective operation of their computer systems and those of their business partners. These risks include, among other things, the theft, misuse, corruption and destruction of data maintained online or digitally, denial of service on websites and other operational disruption and unauthorized release of confidential customer information. Cyber-attacks affecting the Adviser, Victory Capital Services, Inc. (the “Distributor,”), the Funds, the custodian, the transfer agent, financial intermediaries and other affiliated or third-party service providers may adversely affect the Funds and their shareholders. For instance, cyber-attacks may interfere with the processing of Fund transactions, including the processing of orders, impact a Fund’s ability to calculate net asset values, cause the release and possible destruction of confidential customer or business information, impede trading, subject a Fund and/or its service providers and intermediaries to regulatory fines and financial losses and/or cause reputational damage. Cybersecurity risks may also affect the issuers of securities in which a Fund invests, which may cause a Fund’s investments to lose value. A Fund may also incur additional costs for cybersecurity risk management in the future. Although the Funds and their service providers have adopted security procedures to minimize the risk of a cyber-attack, there

36

can be no assurance that the Funds or their service providers will avoid losses affecting the Funds due to cyber-attacks or information security breaches in the future.

DETERMINING NET ASSET VALUE (“NAV”) AND VALUING PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

Each Fund’s NAV is determined, and the shares of each Fund are priced normally as of the valuation time(s) indicated in the Prospectus on each Business Day. A “Business Day” is a day on which the NYSE is open. In the case of the Bond Fund, a Business Day on which the NYSE and the bond market are open. The Bond Fund is authorized to close earlier than is customary for a Business Day upon the recommendation of both the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association and the Adviser. In the event that the Bond Fund closes earlier than is customary for a Business Day, the Bond Fund’s NAV calculation for that day will occur as of the time of the earlier close.  The NYSE is generally closed in observance of the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents’ Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. In addition to closing in observance of the same holidays as the NYSE, the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland is also closed on Columbus Day and Veterans Day.

In the event of an emergency or other disruption in trading on the NYSE, a Fund’s share price will normally be determined based upon the close of the NYSE. In the event of an emergency or other disruption in trading on the bond market, the Bond Fund's share price will normally be determined based upon the close of the bond market. 

The Funds generally value their investments based upon their last reported sale prices, market quotations, or estimates of value provided by an independent pricing service as of the time as of which the Fund’s share price is calculated.

Investment Company Securities

Shares of another open-end investment company (mutual fund) held by a Fund are valued at the latest closing NAV of such mutual fund. Shares of any ETFs held by a Fund are valued in the manner described below under “Equity Securities.”

Fixed Income Securities

Fixed income securities held by a Fund are valued on the basis of security valuations provided by an independent pricing service, approved by the Board, that determines value by using, among other things, information with respect to transactions of a security, quotations from dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various relationships between securities. Specific investment securities that are not priced by the approved pricing service will be valued according to quotations obtained from dealers who are market makers in those securities. Investment securities with less than 60 days to maturity when purchased are valued at amortized cost that approximates market value. Investment securities not having readily available market quotations will be priced at fair value using a methodology approved in good faith by the Board.

Convertible Fixed Income Securities

Convertible fixed income securities are valued in the same manner as any fixed income security. Non-convertible fixed income securities are valued on the basis of prices provided by independent pricing services. Prices provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices and may reflect appropriate factors such as institution-sized trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to special securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, individual trading characteristics, and other market data. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Trust’s officers in a manner specially authorized by the Board. Short-term obligations having 60 days or less to maturity are valued on the basis of amortized cost, except for convertible fixed income securities.

Equity Securities

Each equity security (including ETFs) held by a Fund is valued at the closing price on the exchange where the security is principally traded. Each security traded in the over-the-counter market (but not including securities the trading activity of which is reported on NASDAQ’s Automated Confirmation Transaction (“ACT”) System) is valued at the bid based upon quotes furnished by market makers for such securities. Each security the trading activity of which is reported on NASDAQ’s ACT System is valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price.

Futures and Options Contracts

For purposes of determining NAV, futures and options contracts generally will be valued 15 minutes after the close of trading of the NYSE.

37

Funds that Invest a Significant Amount of their Assets in Foreign Securities

Time zone arbitrage. Funds that invest a significant amount of their assets in foreign securities, may be exposed to attempts by investors to engage in “time-zone arbitrage.” Using this technique, investors seek to take advantage of differences in the values of foreign securities that might result from events that occur after the close of the foreign securities market on which a security is traded and before the close of the NYSE that day, when the Funds calculate their NAV.

If successful, time zone arbitrage might dilute the interests of other shareholders. These Funds use “fair value pricing” under certain circumstances, to adjust the closing market prices of foreign securities to reflect what the Adviser and the Board consider to be their fair value. Fair value pricing may also help to deter time zone arbitrage.

If market quotations are not readily available, or (in the Adviser’s judgment) do not accurately reflect the fair value of a security, or if after the close of the principal market on which a security held by a Fund is traded and before the time as of which the Fund’s NAV is calculated that day, an event occurs that the Adviser learns of and believes in the exercise of its judgment will cause a material change in the value of that security from the closing price of the security on the principal market on which it is traded, that security may be valued by another method that the Board believes would more accurately reflect the security’s fair value.

The Funds’ use of fair value pricing procedures involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security may be materially different from the value that could be realized upon the sale of that security. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that a Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security at approximately the same time at which the Fund determines its net asset value per share.

Other Valuation Information

Under the 1940 Act, the Funds are required to act in good faith in determining the fair value of portfolio securities. The SEC has recognized that a security’s valuation may differ depending on the method used for determining value. The fair value ascertained for a security is an estimate and there is no assurance, given the limited information available at the time of fair valuation, that a security’s fair value will be the same as or close to the subsequent opening market price for that security.

The Board has adopted valuation procedures for the Funds and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for fair valuation determinations to the Adviser and the Adviser’s Pricing Committee. Those determinations may include consideration of recent transactions in comparable securities, information relating to a specific security, developments in and performance of foreign securities markets, current valuations of foreign or U.S. indices, and adjustment co-efficients based on fair value models developed by independent service providers. The Adviser may, for example, adjust the value of portfolio securities based on fair value models supplied by the service provider when the Adviser believes that the adjustments better reflect actual prices as of the close of the NYSE.

Generally, trading in foreign securities, corporate bonds, U.S. government securities and money market instruments is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the NYSE. The values of such securities used in computing the NAV of each Fund’s shares generally are determined at such times. Foreign currency exchange rates are also generally determined prior the close of the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities and such exchange rates may occur between the times at which such values are determined and the close of the NYSE. If events affecting the value of securities occur during such a period, and a Fund’s NAV is materially affected by such changes in the value of the securities, then these securities will be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Board. Other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which valuation cannot be provided are valued as determined in good faith in accordance with procedures approved by the Board.

PERFORMANCE COMPARISON

Each Fund will calculate performance in accordance with formulas prescribed by the SEC.

In addition, a Fund may publish the ranking of its performance or the performance of a particular class of Fund shares by Thomson Reuters Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”), a widely-recognized independent mutual fund monitoring service. Lipper monitors the performance of regulated investment companies and ranks the performance of the Funds and their classes against all other funds in similar categories, for both equity and “fixed income” funds. The Lipper performance rankings are based on total returns that include the reinvestment of capital gains distributions and income dividends but do not take sales charges or taxes into consideration.

From time to time a Fund may publish its rating or that of a particular class of Fund shares by Morningstar, Inc., an independent mutual fund monitoring service that rates mutual funds, in broad investment categories (e.g., domestic equity, international equity, taxable bond, or municipal bond) monthly, based upon each Fund’s three, five and ten-year average annual total returns (when available) and a risk adjustment factor that reflects Fund performance relative to three-month U.S. Treasury bill monthly returns. Such returns are

38

adjusted for fees and sales loads. There are five rating categories with a corresponding number of stars: highest (5), above average (4), neutral (3), below average (2) and lowest (1).

The total return on an investment made in a Fund or that of a particular class of Fund shares may be compared with the performance for the same period of one or more broad-based securities market indices, as described in a Prospectus. These indices are unmanaged indices of securities that do not reflect reinvestment of capital gains or take investment costs into consideration, as these items are not applicable to indices. The Funds' total returns also may be compared with the Consumer Price Index, a measure of change in consumer prices, as determined by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

From time to time, the yields and the total returns of the Funds or that of a particular class of Fund shares may be quoted in and compared to other mutual funds with similar investment objectives in advertisements, shareholder reports or other communications to shareholders. A Fund also may include calculations in such communications that describe hypothetical investment results. (Such performance examples are based on an express set of assumptions and are not indicative of the performance of any Fund.) Such calculations may from time to time include discussions or illustrations of the effects of compounding in advertisements. “Compounding” refers to the fact that, if dividends or other distributions on a Fund’s investment are reinvested by being paid in additional Fund shares, any future income or capital appreciation of a Fund would increase the value, not only of the original Fund investment, but also of the additional Fund shares received through reinvestment. As a result, the value of a Fund investment would increase more quickly than if dividends or other distributions had been paid in cash.

A Fund also may include discussions or illustrations of the potential investment goals of a prospective investor (including but not limited to tax and/or retirement planning), investment management techniques, policies or investment suitability of a Fund, economic conditions, legislative developments (including pending legislation), the effects of inflation and historical performance of various asset classes, including but not limited to stocks, bonds and U.S. Treasury bills.

From time to time advertisements or communications to shareholders may summarize the substance of information contained in shareholder reports (including the investment composition of a Fund, as well as the views of the Adviser as to current market, economic, trade and interest rate trends, legislative, regulatory and monetary developments, investment strategies and related matters believed to be of relevance to a Fund). A Fund also may include in advertisements, charts, graphs or drawings that illustrate the potential risks and rewards of investment in various investment vehicles, including but not limited to stock, bonds and U.S. Treasury bills, as compared to an investment in shares of a Fund, as well as charts or graphs that illustrate strategies such as dollar cost averaging and comparisons of hypothetical yields of investment in tax-exempt versus taxable investments. In addition, advertisements or shareholder communications may include a discussion of certain attributes or benefits to be derived by an investment in a Fund. Such advertisements or communications may include symbols, headlines or other material that highlight or summarize the information discussed in more detail therein. With proper authorization, a Fund may reprint articles (or excerpts) written regarding a Fund and provide them to prospective shareholders. The Funds’ performance information is generally available by calling toll free 800-539-FUND (800-539- 3863) or at www.VictoryFunds.com. Performance information regarding Member Class shares is also available by calling 800-235-8396.

Investors also may judge, and a Fund may at times advertise, the performance of a Fund or that of a particular class of Fund shares by comparing it to the performance of other mutual funds or mutual fund portfolios with comparable investment objectives and policies, which performance may be contained in various unmanaged mutual fund or market indices or rankings. In addition to yield information, general information about a Fund that appears in a publication may also be quoted or reproduced in advertisements or in reports to shareholders.

Advertisements and sales literature may include discussions of specifics of a portfolio manager’s investment strategy and process, including, but not limited to, descriptions of security selection and analysis. Advertisements may also include descriptive information about the investment adviser, including, but not limited to, its status within the industry, other services and products it makes available, total assets under management and its investment philosophy.

When comparing yield, total return and investment risk of an investment in shares of a Fund with other investments, investors should understand that certain other investments have different risk characteristics than an investment in shares of a Fund. For example, CDs may have fixed rates of return and may be insured as to principal and interest by the FDIC, while a Fund’s returns will fluctuate and its share values and returns are not guaranteed. Money market accounts offered by banks also may be insured by the FDIC and may offer stability of principal. U.S. Treasury securities are guaranteed as to principal and interest by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.

ADDITIONAL PURCHASE, EXCHANGE AND REDEMPTION INFORMATION

The NYSE holiday closing schedule indicated in this SAI under “Determining Net Asset Value (“NAV”) and Valuing Portfolio Securities” is subject to change. When the NYSE is closed or when trading is restricted for any reason other than its customary weekend

39

or holiday closings, or under emergency circumstances as determined by the SEC to warrant such action, the Funds may not be able to accept purchase or redemption requests. A Fund’s NAV may be affected to the extent that its securities are traded on days that are not Business Days. Each Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase order in whole or in part.

The Trust has elected, pursuant to Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, to redeem shares of each Fund solely in cash up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1.00% of the NAV of the Fund during any 90-day period for any one shareholder. The remaining portion of the redemption may be made in securities or other property, valued for this purpose as they are valued in computing the NAV of each class of the Fund. Shareholders receiving securities or other property on redemption may realize a gain or loss for tax purposes and may incur additional costs as well as the associated inconveniences of holding and/or disposing of such securities or other property.

Pursuant to Rule 11a-3 under the 1940 Act, the Funds are required to give shareholders at least 60 days’ notice prior to terminating or modifying a Fund’s exchange privilege. The 60-day notification requirement may, however, be waived if (1) the only effect of a modification would be to reduce or eliminate an administrative fee, redemption fee, or CDSC ordinarily payable at the time of exchange or (2) a Fund temporarily suspends the offering of shares as permitted under the 1940 Act or by the SEC or because it is unable to invest amounts effectively in accordance with its investment objective and policies.

The Funds reserve the right at any time without prior notice to shareholders to refuse exchange purchases by any person or group if, in the Adviser’s judgment, a Fund would be unable to invest effectively in accordance with its investment objective and policies, or would otherwise be adversely affected.

Each Fund has authorized one or more brokers or other financial services institutions to accept on its behalf purchase and redemption orders. Such brokers or other financial services institutions are authorized to designate plan administrators and other intermediaries to accept purchase and redemption orders on a Fund’s behalf. A Fund will be deemed to have received a purchase or redemption order when an authorized broker or other financial services institutions, or, if applicable, a broker’s or other financial services institutions authorized designee, accepts the order. Customer orders will be priced at each Fund’s NAV next computed after they are accepted by an authorized broker or other financial services institutions or the broker’s or other financial services institution’s authorized designee.

If you hold your Fund shares in an account established with a financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary in advance of placing a request for an exchange to confirm your ability to exchange with a particular Victory Fund.

Purchasing Shares

Alternative Sales Arrangements — Class A, C, I, R, R6, Y and Member Class Shares. Alternative sales arrangements permit an investor to choose the method of purchasing shares that is more beneficial depending on the amount of the purchase, the length of time the investor expects to hold shares and other relevant circumstances. When comparing the classes of shares, when more than one is offered in the same Fund, investors should understand that the purpose and function of the Class C and Class R shares asset-based sales charge are the same as those of the Class A initial sales charge. Any salesperson or other person entitled to receive compensation for selling Fund shares may receive different compensation with respect to one class of shares in comparison to another class of shares. Generally, Class A shares have lower ongoing expenses than Class C shares, but are subject to an initial sales charge. Which class would be advantageous to an investor depends on the number of years the shares will be held. Over very long periods of time, the lower expenses of Class A shares may offset the cost of the Class A initial sales charge. Not all Investment Professionals (as described in each Fund’s Prospectus) will offer all classes of shares.

Each class of shares represents interests in the same portfolio investments of a Fund. However, each class has different shareholder privileges and features. The net income attributable to a particular class and the dividends payable on these shares will be reduced by incremental expenses borne solely by that class, including any asset-based sales charge to which these shares may be subject.

Currently, each share class of the Munder Small Cap Growth Fund is not currently registered in all 50 states, including Montana, Nebraska and Oklahoma.

No initial sales charge is imposed on Class C shares. The Distributor may pay sales commissions to dealers and institutions who sell Class C shares of the Funds at the time of such sales. Payments with respect to Class C shares will equal 1.00% of the purchase price of the Class C shares sold by the dealer or institution. The Distributor will retain all payments received by it relating to Class C shares for the first year after they are purchased. After the first full year, the Distributor will make monthly payments in the amount of 0.75% for distribution services and 0.25% for personal shareholder services to dealers and institutions based on the average NAV of Class C shares, which are attributable to shareholders for whom the dealers and institutions are designated as dealers of record. Some of the compensation paid to dealers and institutions is recouped through the CDSC imposed on shares redeemed within 12 months of their purchase. Class C shares are subject to the Rule 12b-1 fees described in the SAI under “Rule 12b-1 Distribution and Service Plans.” Class C shares of the Funds will automatically convert to Class A shares under circumstances described in the Funds’ Prospectuses. Financial institutions may be permitted to exchange Class C shares for a share class with lower expenses under circumstances described

40

in a Fund’s Prospectus. Any options with respect to the reinvestment of distributions made by the Funds to Class C shareholders are offered only by the broker through whom the shares were acquired.

No initial sales charges or CDSCs are imposed on Class R shares. Class R shares are subject to the Rule 12b-1 fees described in this SAI under “Rule 12b-1 Distribution and Service Plans.” There is no automatic conversion feature applicable to Class R shares. Distributions paid to holders of a Fund’s Class R shares may be reinvested in additional Class R shares of that Fund or Class R shares of a different Fund. Only certain investors are eligible to buy Class R shares, as set forth in the Prospectus, and your financial adviser or other financial intermediary can help you determine whether you are eligible to invest.

No initial sales charges or CDSCs are imposed on Class R6 shares. Class R6 shares are not subject to the Rule 12b-1 fees described in this SAI under “Rule 12b-1 Distribution and Service Plans.” There is no automatic conversion feature applicable to Class R6 shares. Distributions paid to holders of a Fund’s Class R6 shares may be reinvested in additional Class R6 shares of that Fund or Class R6 shares of a different Fund. Class A shareholders, Class C shareholders whose shares are not subject to a CDSC and Class I shareholders may exchange into Class R6 shares of a Fund offering such shares provided they meet the eligibility requirements applicable to Class R6. Only certain investors are eligible to buy Class R6 shares, as set forth in a Fund’s Prospectus, and your financial adviser or other financial intermediary can help you determine whether you are eligible to invest.

No initial sales charges or CDSCs are imposed on Class I shares. Class I shares are not subject to the Rule 12b-1 fees described in this SAI under “Rule 12b-1 Distribution and Service Plans.” There is no automatic conversion feature applicable to Class I shares. Distributions paid to holders of a Fund’s Class I shares may be reinvested in additional Class I shares of that Fund or Class I shares of a different Fund.

The minimum investment required to open an account for Class I shares is $2,000,000. Class I shares are also available for purchase by retirement plans, including Section 401 and 457 Plans sponsored by a Section 501(c)(3) organization and certain non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements that operate in a similar manner to qualified plans. The Fund will consider a lower initial investment if, in the opinion of the Distributor, the investor has the adequate intent and availability of assets to reach a future level of investment of $2,000,000. Only certain investors are eligible to buy Class I shares and your financial adviser or other financial intermediary can help you determine whether you are eligible to invest.

Only certain investors are eligible to buy Member Class shares, as set forth in a Fund's Prospectus, and your financial adviser or other financial intermediary can help you determine whether you are eligible to invest.

No initial sales charges or CDSCs are imposed on Class Y shares. Class Y shares are not subject to the Rule 12b-1 fees described in this SAI under “Rule 12b-1 Distribution and Service Plans.” There is no automatic conversion feature applicable to Class Y shares. Distributions paid to holders of a Fund’s Class Y shares may be reinvested in additional Class Y shares of that Fund or Class Y shares of a different Fund. Only certain investors are eligible to buy Class Y shares, as set forth in a Fund’s Prospectus, and your financial adviser or other financial intermediary can help you determine whether you are eligible to invest.

Each Fund reserves the right to change the criteria for eligible investors and the investment minimums related to each class of shares. Each Fund also reserves the right to refuse a purchase order for any reason, including if it believes that doing so would be in the best interest of the Fund and shareholders.

The methodology for calculating the NAV, dividends and distributions of the share classes of each Fund recognizes two types of expenses. General expenses that do not pertain specifically to a class are allocated to the shares of each class, based upon the percentage that the net assets of such class bears to a Fund’s total net assets and then pro rata to each outstanding share within a given class. Such general expenses include (1) management fees, (2) legal, bookkeeping and audit fees, (3) printing and mailing costs of shareholder reports, prospectuses, statements of additional information and other materials for current shareholders, (4) fees to the Trustees who are not affiliated with the Adviser, (5) custodian expenses, (6) share issuance costs, (7) organization and start-up costs, (8) interest, taxes and brokerage commissions, and (9) non-recurring expenses, such as litigation costs. Other expenses that are directly attributable to a class are allocated equally to each outstanding share within that class. Such expenses include (1) Rule 12b-1 distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees, (2) incremental transfer and shareholder servicing agent fees and expenses, (3) registration fees, and (4) shareholder meeting expenses, to the extent that such expenses pertain to a specific class rather than to a Fund as a whole.

Dealer Reallowances. The following table shows the amount of the front-end sales load that is reallowed to dealers as a percentage of the offering price of Class A shares of the Equity Funds excluding the S&P 500 Index Fund.  

Amount of Purchase	Initial Sales Charge: % of Offering Price	Concession to Dealers: % of Offering Price
Up to $49,999	5.75%	5.00%
$ 50,000 to $99,999	4.50%	4.00%
$ 100,000 to $249,999	3.50%	3.00%

$ 500,000 to $999,999	2.00%	1.75%
$ 1,000,000 and above*	0.00%	**

*

There is no initial sales charge on purchases of $1 million or more; however a sales concession and/or advance of a Rule 12b-1 fee may be paid and such purchases are potentially subject to a CDSC, as set forth below.

**

Investment Professionals may receive payment on purchases of $1 million or more of Class A shares that are sold at NAV as follows: 0.75% of the current purchase amount if cumulative prior purchases sold at NAV plus the current purchase is less than $3 million; 0.50% of the current purchase amount if the cumulative prior purchases sold at NAV plus the current purchase is $3 million to $4,999,999; and 0.25% on of the current purchase amount if the cumulative prior purchases sold at NAV plus the current purchase is $5 million or more. In addition, in connection with such purchases, the Distributor or its affiliates may advance Rule 12b-1 fees of 0.25% of the purchase amount to Investment Professionals for providing services to shareholders.

Except as noted in this SAI, a CDSC of up to 0.75% may be imposed on any such shares redeemed within the first 18 months after purchase. CDSCs are based on the lower of the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption. No CDSC is imposed on reinvested distributions.

The Distributor reserves the right to pay the entire commission to dealers. If that occurs, the dealer may be considered an “underwriter” under federal securities laws.

The following table shows the amount of the front-end sales load that is reallowed to dealers as a percentage of the offering price of the Class A shares of the Victory S&P 500 Index Fund:

There is no initial sales charge on purchases of $250,000 or more; however a sales concession and/or advance of a Rule 12b-1 fee may be paid and such purchases are potentially subject to a CDSC, as set forth below.

**

Investment Professionals may receive payment on purchases of $250,000 or more of Class A shares that are sold at NAV as follows: 0.75% of the current purchase amount if cumulative prior purchases sold at NAV plus the current purchase is less than $3 million; 0.50% of the current purchase amount if the cumulative prior purchases sold at NAV plus the current purchase is $3 million to $4,999,999; and 0.25% on of the current purchase amount if the cumulative prior purchases sold at NAV plus the current purchase is $5 million or more. In addition, in connection with such purchases, the Distributor or its affiliates may advance Rule 12b-1 fees of 0.25% of the purchase amount to Investment Professionals for providing services to shareholders.

Except as noted in this SAI, a CDSC of up to 0.75% may be imposed on any such shares redeemed within the first 18 months after purchase. CDSCs are based on the lower of the cost of the shares or NAV at the time of redemption. No CDSC is imposed on reinvested distributions.

The Distributor reserves the right to pay the entire commission to dealers. If that occurs, the dealer may be considered an “underwriter” under federal securities laws.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries. If you purchase the Fund through a financial intermediary (including broker-dealers, banks, third party administrators, retirement plan record-keepers or other financial intermediaries) the Fund may pay for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and/or similar administrative services (administrative services) for all classes other than Class R6. Depending upon the particular share class and/or contractual agreement, these payments may be calculated based on average net assets of the Fund that are serviced by the intermediary or on a per account basis. The administrative services may be related to investments by participants in retirement and benefit plans, investors in mutual fund advisory programs, and clients of financial intermediaries that maintain omnibus or other accounts for their clients. Services provided include but are not limited to the following: transmitting net purchase and redemption orders; maintaining separate records for shareholders that reflect purchases, redemptions and share balances; mailing shareholder confirmations and periodic statements; and furnishing proxy materials and periodic fund reports, prospectuses and other communications to shareholders as required.

42

In addition, the Adviser (or its affiliates), from its own resources, may make substantial payments to various financial intermediaries for the sale of Fund shares and related services for investments in all classes other than Class R6. The Adviser also may reimburse the Distributor (or the Distributor’s affiliates) for making these payments. Depending on the particular share class and/or contractual arrangement, these payments may be calculated based on average net assets of the Fund that are serviced by the intermediary or on a per account basis.

These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the financial intermediary and its salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

As of June 30, 2021, the Adviser and its affiliates had arrangements in place with respect to the Funds with the following intermediaries:

Sample Calculation of Maximum Offering Price

Each Class A shares of the Equity Funds (except the S&P 500 Index Fund) are sold with a maximum initial sales charge of 5.75%, Class A shares of the S&P 500 Index Fund and the Bond Funds are sold with a maximum initial sales charge of 2.25%. Set forth below is an example of the method of computing the offering price of the Class A shares of the Funds. The example assumes a purchase of Class A shares aggregating less than $50,000 subject to the schedule of sales charges set forth in the Prospectus at a price based upon the NAV of the Class A shares.

 

All Equity Funds except Victory S&P 500 Index Fund
NAV per Share	$ 10.00
Per Share Sales Charge—5.75% of public offering price (6.10% of net asset value per share) for each Fund	0.61
Per Share Offering Price to the Public	$ 10.61

 

Fixed Income Funds and Victory S&P 500 Index Fund
NAV per Share	$ 10.00
Per Share Sales Charge—2.25% of public offering price (2.30% of net asset value per share) for each Fund	0.23
Per Share Offering Price to the Public	$ 10.23

Class C shares of each relevant Fund are sold at NAV without any initial sales charges and with a 1.00% CDSC on shares redeemed within 12 months of purchase. Class R, Class R6 Class Y, Class I and Member Class shares of each relevant Fund are sold at NAV without any initial sales charges or CDSCs.

Reinstatement Privilege. Within 90 days of a redemption, a shareholder may reinvest all or part of the redemption proceeds of Class A or Class C shares in the same class of shares of a Fund or any of the other Funds into which shares of the Fund are exchangeable, as described above, at the NAV next computed after receipt by the transfer agent of the reinvestment order. No service charge is currently made for reinvestment in shares of the Funds. Class C share proceeds reinstated do not result in a refund of any CDSC paid by the shareholder, but the reinstated shares will be treated as CDSC exempt upon reinstatement. The shareholder must ask the Distributor for such privilege at the time of reinvestment. Any capital gain that was realized when the shares were redeemed is taxable, even if the proceeds are reinvested. Depending on the timing and amount of a potential reinvestment, some or all of a capital loss from redemption may not be deductible. If the redemption proceeds of Fund shares on which a sales charge was paid are reinvested in shares

43

of the same Fund or another Fund offered by the Trust within 90 days of payment of the sales charge, the shareholder’s basis in the redeemed shares may not include the amount of the sales charge paid. Without the additional basis, the shareholder will have more gain or less loss upon redemption. The Funds may amend, suspend, or cease offering this reinvestment privilege at any time as to shares redeemed after the date of such amendment, suspension, or cessation. The reinstatement must be into an account bearing the same registration.

Redemptions in Kind. Subject to its election under Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act, each Fund reserves the right to honor requests for redemption or repurchase orders by making payment in whole or in part in readily marketable securities (“redemption in kind”) if the amount of such request is large enough to affect operations (for example, if the request is greater than $250,000 or 1% of the Fund’s assets). The securities will be chosen by the Fund and valued at the price used in calculating the Fund’s NAV on the day of redemption. A shareholder may incur transaction expenses in converting these securities to cash.

MANAGEMENT OF THE TRUST

Board Leadership Structure

The Trust is governed by the Board, which is comprised of nine Trustees, eight of whom are not “interested persons” of the Trust within the meaning of that term under the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”). The Chair of the Board is an Independent Trustee, who functions as the lead Trustee. The Chair serves as liaison between the Board and its Committees, the Adviser and other service providers. The Chair is actively involved in setting the Board meeting agenda, and participates on certain Board Committees.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

In considering risks related to the Funds, the Board consults and receives reports from officers of the Funds and personnel of the Adviser, who are charged with the day-to-day risk oversight function. Matters regularly reported to the Board or a designated committee include certain risks involving, among other things, the Funds’ investment portfolios, trading practices, operational matters, financial and accounting controls, and legal and regulatory compliance. The Board has delegated to each of the Compliance Committee and Audit and Risk Oversight Committee certain responsibilities for reviewing reports relating to compliance and enterprise risk, including operational risk, liquidity and personnel. The Board relies on the Investment Committee to review reports relating to investment risks, that is, risks to the Funds resulting from pursuing the Funds’ investment strategies (e.g., credit risk and market risk).

Trustees and Officers

The following tables list the Trustees and Officers, their ages, position with the Trust, length of time served, principal occupations during the past five years and, where applicable, any directorships of other investment companies or companies whose securities are registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“1934 Act”), or who file reports under the 1934 Act. Each Trustee currently oversees 74 portfolios comprised of 41 portfolios in the Trust, 25 portfolios in Victory Portfolios II and 8 portfolios in Victory Variable Insurance Funds, each of which is a registered investment company that, together with the Trust, are referred to as the Victory Fund Complex. Mr. Brown is a trustee of USAA Mutual Funds Trust, a registered investment company, and oversees 46 portfolios of USAA Mutual Funds Trust. There is no defined term of office and each Trustee serves until the earlier of his or her resignation, retirement, removal, death, or the election of a qualified successor. Each Trustee’s and Officer’s address is c/o Victory Funds, 4900 Tiedeman Road, 4th Floor, Brooklyn, Ohio 44144.

The Committee (or a designated sub-committee) will screen shareholder recommendations in the same manner as it screens nominations received from other sources, such as current Trustees, management of the Fund or other individuals, including professional recruiters. The Committee need not consider any recommendations when no vacancy on the Board exists, but the Committee will consider any such recommendation if a vacancy occurs within six months after receipt of the recommendation. In administering the shareholder recommendation process, the Chair, in the Chair’s sole discretion, may retain the services of counsel to the Trust or to the Independent Trustees, management of the Fund or any third party. The Committee will communicate the results of the evaluation of any shareholder recommendation to the shareholder who made the recommendation.

• The Agenda Committee consists of the Chair of the Board and the Chair of each other Committee.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, the Board held seven meetings. The Audit and Risk Oversight Committee held four meetings; the Compliance Committee held four meetings; the Investment Committee held five meetings; the Service Provider Committee held four meetings; and the Board Governance and Nominating Committee held four meetings.

The Adviser’s principal business address is 15935 La Cantera Parkway, San Antonio, TX 78256. Subject to the authority of the Board, the Adviser is responsible for the overall management and administration of the Funds’ business affairs. Each of the Adviser’s multiple investment teams, referred to separately as investment franchises utilizes its own independent approach to investing.

50

The Adviser is a diversified global asset manager comprised of multiple investment teams, referred to as investment franchises, each of which utilizes an independent approach to investing.

The Advisory Agreement

The Adviser serves as the Funds’ investment adviser pursuant to an advisory agreement dated as of August 1, 2013 (the “Advisory Agreement”). Unless sooner terminated, the Advisory Agreement between the Adviser and the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, provides that it will continue in effect as to the Funds for two years and for consecutive one-year terms thereafter, provided that such renewal is approved at least annually by the Trustees or by vote of the majority of the outstanding shares of each such Fund (as defined under “Miscellaneous” below) and, in either case, by a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Advisory Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of any party to the Advisory Agreement, by votes cast in person at a meeting called for such purpose. The Advisory Agreement is terminable as to any particular Fund at any time on 60 days’ written notice without penalty by a vote of the majority of the outstanding shares of a Fund, by vote of the Trustees, or as to all applicable Funds by the Adviser. The Advisory Agreement also terminates automatically in the event of any assignment, as defined by the 1940 Act.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, on March 13, 2020, the SEC issued an order (subsequently modified and extended on March 25, 2020 and June 19, 2020) (the “Order”) providing temporary relief from in person voting requirements subject to meeting certain conditions of the Order.

The Advisory Agreement provides that the Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Funds in connection with the performance of the services pursuant thereto, except a loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services or a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence on the part of the Adviser in the performance of its duties, or from reckless disregard by the Adviser of its duties and obligations thereunder.

Under the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser may delegate a portion of its responsibilities to a sub-adviser. In addition, the agreements provide that the Adviser may render services through its own employees or the employees of one or more affiliated companies that are qualified to act as an investment adviser of the Fund provided all such persons are functioning as part of an organized group of persons, managed by authorized officers of the Adviser.

The following schedule lists the advisory fees for each Fund, as an annual percentage of its average daily net assets:  

Fund	Advisory Fee
Victory INCORE Total Return Bond Fund	0.40%

Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund	0.75% on the first $500 million and 0.70% on assets in excess of $500 million

Management Fee Waiver/Expense Reimbursement

For some of the Funds, the Adviser has contractually agreed to waive its management fee and/or reimburse Fund expenses so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding any acquired fund fees and expenses and certain other items such as interest, taxes, dividend and interest expenses on short sales and brokerage commissions) of a Fund (by share class) do not exceed a certain percentage for a predetermined amount of time. In these instances, the fee and expense table in the Fund’s Prospectus provides more details about this arrangement and shows the impact it will have on the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses. Under its contractual agreement with the Funds, the Adviser is permitted to recoup advisory fees waived and expenses reimbursed for up to three years after the date of the waiver or reimbursement, subject to the lesser of any operating expense limits in effect at the time of: (a) the original waiver or expense reimbursement; or (b) the recoupment, after giving effect to the recoupment amount. This agreement may only be terminated by the Board. From time to time, the Adviser may also voluntarily waive its management fee and/or reimburse expenses for a Fund. These voluntary reductions are not reflected in the fee and expense table in the Fund’s Prospectus.

From time to time, the Manager may, without prior notice to shareholders, waive all or any portion of fees or agree to reimburse expenses incurred by a Fund. As a result of the Funds’ expense limitation agreement, for the last three fiscal years ended June 30, Victory Capital reimbursed the Funds in the table below.

Manager of Managers Structure

Subject to the review and approval of the Board, and notice to shareholders, the Funds may adopt a "manager of managers" structure in the future. In a manager of managers structure, the Adviser implements the Funds' investment strategies primarily by selecting one or more sub-advisers, rather than relying on its portfolio managers. To the extent that the Funds rely on a manager of managers structure in the future, the Adviser could enter into one or more sub-advisory agreements without first obtaining shareholder approval when the Adviser and the Board believe that the selection of the sub-adviser would benefit a Fund and its shareholders. In evaluating a prospective sub-adviser, the Adviser would consider, among other things, the firm's experience, investment philosophy and historical performance. The Adviser would remain ultimately responsible for supervising, monitoring and evaluating the performance of any sub-adviser retained to manage a Fund. The Funds have received an order from the SEC enabling them to adopt a manager of managers structure, and they may rely on that order or any amended or superseding order obtained in the future (together, the "SEC Order").

To the extent a Fund relies on the SEC Order, the Fund and the Adviser will comply with the relevant restrictions and conditions contained in the SEC Order, which are designed to protect Fund shareholders from potential conflicts of interests, including a

52

requirement that the Fund notify shareholders and provide them with certain information connection with the retention of any new sub-adviser or a material amendment of any existing sub-adviser agreement.

Portfolio Manager Compensation

The Adviser has designed the structure of its portfolio managers’ compensation to (1) align portfolio managers’ interests with those of the Adviser’s clients with an emphasis on long-term, risk-adjusted investment performance, (2) help the Adviser attract and retain high-quality investment professionals, and (3) contribute to the Adviser’s overall financial success. Each of the portfolio managers receives a base salary plus an annual incentive bonus for managing a Fund, separate accounts, other investment companies, other pooled investment vehicles and other accounts (including any accounts for which the Adviser receives a performance fee) (together, “Accounts”). A portfolio manager’s base salary is dependent on the manager’s level of experience and expertise. The Adviser monitors each manager’s base salary relative to salaries paid for similar positions with peer firms by reviewing data provided by various independent third-party consultants that specialize in competitive salary information. Such data, however, is not considered to be a definitive benchmark.

Each of the Adviser’s investment franchises may earn incentive compensation based on a percentage of the Adviser’s revenue attributable to fees paid by Accounts managed by the team. The chief investment officer of each team, in coordination with the Adviser, determines the allocation of the incentive compensation earned by the team among the team’s portfolio managers by establishing a “target” incentive for each portfolio manager based on the manager’s level of experience and expertise in the manager’s investment style. Individual performance is based on objectives established annually using performance metrics such as portfolio structure and

55

positioning, research, stock selection, asset growth, client retention, presentation skills, marketing to prospective clients and contribution to the Adviser’s philosophy and values, such as leadership, risk management and teamwork. The annual incentive bonus also factors in individual investment performance of each portfolio manager’s portfolio or Fund relative to a selected peer group(s). The overall performance results for a manager are based on the composite performance of all Accounts managed by that manager on a combination of one, three and five year rolling performance periods as compared to the performance information of a peer group of similarly-managed competitors.

The Adviser’s portfolio managers may participate in the equity ownership plan of the Adviser’s parent company. There is an ongoing annual equity pool granted to certain employees based on their contribution to the firm. Eligibility for participation in these incentive programs depends on the manager’s performance and seniority.

Conflicts of Interest

The Adviser’s portfolio managers are often responsible for managing one or more Funds as well as other accounts, such as separate accounts, and other pooled investment vehicles, such as collective trust funds or unregistered hedge funds. A portfolio manager may manage other accounts which have materially higher fee arrangements than a Fund and may, in the future, manage other accounts which have a performance-based fee. A portfolio manager also may make personal investments in accounts he or she manages or supports. The side-by-side management of the Funds along with other accounts may raise potential conflicts of interest by incenting a portfolio manager to direct a disproportionate amount of: (1) their attention; (2) limited investment opportunities, such as less liquid securities or initial public offering; and/or (3) desirable trade allocations, to such other accounts. In addition, certain trading practices, such as cross-trading between Funds or between a Fund and another account, raise conflict of interest issues. The Adviser has adopted numerous compliance policies and procedures, including a Code of Ethics, and brokerage and trade allocation policies and procedures, which seek to address the conflicts associated with managing multiple accounts for multiple clients. In addition, the Adviser has a designated Chief Compliance Officer (selected in accordance with the federal securities laws) and compliance staff whose activities are focused on monitoring the activities of the Adviser’s investment franchises and employees in order to detect and address potential and actual conflicts of interest. However, there can be no assurance that the Adviser’s compliance program will achieve its intended result.

Compliance Services

The Trust and the Adviser are parties to the Agreement to Provide Compliance Services (“Compliance Agreement”) pursuant to which the Adviser furnishes its compliance personnel, including the services of the CCO, and other resources reasonably necessary to provide the Trust with compliance oversight services related to the design, administration and oversight of a compliance program for the Trust in accordance with Rule 38a-1 under 1940 Act. The funds in the Victory Fund Complex, in the aggregate, compensate the Adviser for these services.

For the three most recent fiscal years ended June 30, the Funds paid the Adviser the following fees under the terms of the Compliance Agreement:

 

Fund	2021 Fees Paid	2020 Fees Paid	2019 Fees Paid

Administrator and Fund Accountant

Victory Capital serves as the administrator and fund accountant to the Trust pursuant to an agreement dated July 1, 2006, as amended (the “Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement”). Citi Fund Services Ohio, Inc. (“Citi”) serves as sub-administrator and sub-fund accountant to the Trust pursuant to an agreement with Victory Capital dated October 1, 2015, as amended (the “Sub-Administration and Sub-Fund Accounting Agreement”). As administrator, Victory Capital supervises the Trust’s operations,

56

including the services that Citi provides to the Funds as sub-administrator and sub-fund accountant, but excluding those that Victory Capital supervises as investment adviser, subject to the supervision of the Board.

Under the Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement, for the administration and fund accounting services that Victory Capital renders to the Funds, the Trust, Victory Portfolios II (“VP II”) and Victory Variable Insurance Funds (“VVIF”) pay Victory Capital an annual fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at the following annual rates based on the aggregate average daily net assets of the Trust, VP II and VVIF: 0.08% of the first $15 billion in aggregate Trust, VP II and VVIF net assets, plus 0.05% of aggregate Trust, VP II and VVIF net assets in excess of $15 billion to $30 billion, plus 0.04% of aggregate Trust, VP II and VVIF net assets in excess of $30 billion. Victory Capital may periodically waive all or a portion of the amount of its fee that is allocated to any Fund in order to increase the Fund’s net income available for distribution to shareholders. In addition, the Trust, VP II and VVIF reimburse Victory Capital for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred as a result of providing the services under the Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement, including costs associated with implementing new reports required by the new RIC Modernization rules adopted by the SEC under the 1940 Act.

Except as otherwise provided in the Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement, Victory Capital pays all expenses that it incurs in performing its services and duties as administrator. Unless sooner terminated, the Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement continues in effect for a period of three years and for consecutive one-year terms thereafter, provided that such continuance is approved by the Board or by vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of each Fund and, in either case, by a majority of the Independent Trustees. The Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement provides that Victory Capital shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or any loss suffered by the Trust in connection with the matters to which the Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from bad faith, willful misfeasance, negligence or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the Agreement.

Under the Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement, Victory Capital, among other things, coordinates the preparation, filing and distribution of amendments to the Trust’s registration statement on Form N-1A, supplements to prospectuses and SAIs, and proxy materials in connection with shareholder meetings; drafts shareholder communications, including annual and semi-annual reports; administers the Trust’s other service provider contracts; monitors compliance with investment restrictions imposed by the 1940 Act, each Fund’s investment objective, defined investment policies, and restrictions, tax diversification, and distribution and income requirements; coordinates the Funds’ service arrangements with financial institutions that make the Funds’ shares available to their customers; assists with regulatory compliance; supplies individuals to serve as Trust officers; prepares Board meeting materials; and annually determines whether the services that it provides (or the services that Citi provides as sub-administrator) are adequate and complete.

Victory Capital also performs fund accounting services for each Fund, excluding those services that Citi performs as sub-fund accountant. The fund accountant calculates each Fund’s NAV, its dividend and capital gain distribution, if any, and its yield. The fund accountant also provides a current security position report, a summary report of transactions and pending maturities, a current cash position report, and maintains the general ledger accounting records for the Funds. The fees that Citi receives for sub-administration and sub-fund accounting services are described in the SAI section entitled “Sub-Administrator and Sub-Fund Accountant.”

Each of the following Funds accrued the following amounts in administrative, fund accountant fees for the three most recent fiscal years ended June 30.

Sub-Administrator and Sub-Fund Accountant

Citi serves as sub-administrator and sub-fund accountant to the Funds pursuant to the Sub-Administration and Sub-Fund Accounting Agreement. Citi assists in supervising all operations of the Funds (other than those performed by Victory Capital either as investment adviser or administrator), subject to the supervision of the Board.

57

Unless sooner terminated, the Sub-Administration and Sub-Fund Accounting Agreement continues in effect as to each Fund for a period of three years and for consecutive one-year terms thereafter. The Sub-Administration and Sub-Fund Accounting Agreement provides that Citi shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or any loss suffered by the Trust in connection with the matters to which the Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from bad faith, willful misfeasance, negligence, or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the Agreement.

Under the Sub-Administration and Sub-Fund Accounting Agreement, Citi calculates Trust expenses and make disbursements; calculates capital gain and distribution information; registers the Funds’ shares with the states; prepares shareholder reports and reports to the SEC on Forms N-CEN and N-PORT; coordinates dividend payments; calculates the Funds’ performance information; files the Trust’s tax returns; supplies individuals to serve as Trust officers; monitors the Funds’ status as regulated investment companies under the Code; assists in developing portfolio compliance procedures; reports to the Board amounts paid under shareholder service agreements; assists with regulatory compliance; obtains, maintains and files fidelity bonds and Trustees’ and officers’/errors and omissions insurance policies for the Trust; assists with liquidity risk management services; and assists in the annual audit of the Funds, among other services.

Transfer Agent

FIS Investor Services LLC (“FIS”), 4249 Easton Way, Suite 400, Columbus, Ohio 43219, serves as transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the Funds. Under its agreement with the Funds, FIS has agreed to (1) issue and redeem shares of the Funds; (2) address and mail all communications by the Funds to their shareholders, including reports to shareholders, dividend and distribution notices and proxy material for its meetings of shareholders; (3) respond to correspondence or inquiries by shareholders and others relating to its duties; (4) maintain shareholder accounts and certain sub-accounts; and (5) make periodic reports to the Board concerning the Funds’ operations.

Custodian

General. Citibank, 388 Greenwich St., New York, New York 10013, serves as the custodian of the assets of each Fund pursuant to the Global Custodial Services Agreement dated August 5, 2008, as amended (the “Custody Agreement”). The Custodian’s responsibilities include safeguarding and controlling each Fund’s cash and securities, handling the receipt and delivery of securities, and collecting interest and dividends on the Fund’s investments. Pursuant to the Custody Agreement, the Custodian also maintains original entry documents and books of record and general ledgers; posts cash receipts and disbursements; and records purchases and sales based upon communications from the Adviser. The Custodian may, with the approval of a Fund and at its own expense, open and maintain a sub-custody account or accounts on behalf of a Fund, provided that it shall remain liable for the performance of all of its duties under the Custody Agreement.

Foreign Custody. Rule 17f-5 under the 1940 Act, which governs the custody of investment company assets outside the United States, allows a mutual fund’s board of directors to delegate to a “Foreign Custody Manager” the selection and monitoring of foreign sub-custodian arrangements for the Trust’s assets. Accordingly, the Board delegated these responsibilities to the Custodian pursuant to the Custody Agreement. As Foreign Custody Manager, the Custodian must (a) determine that the assets of the Funds held by a foreign sub-custodian will be subject to reasonable care, based on the standards applicable to custodians in the relevant market; (b) determine that the Trust’s foreign custody arrangements are governed by written contracts in compliance with Rule 17f-5 (or, in the case of a compulsory depository, by such a contract and/or established practices or procedures); and (c) monitor the appropriateness of these arrangements and any material change in the relevant contract, practices or procedures. In determining appropriateness, the Custodian will not evaluate a particular country’s investment risks, such as (a) the use of compulsory depositories, (b) such country’s financial infrastructure, (c) such country’s prevailing custody and settlement practices, (d) nationalization, expropriation or other governmental actions, (e) regulation of the banking or securities industry, (f) currency controls, restrictions, devaluations or fluctuations, and (g) market conditions that affect the orderly execution of securities transactions or affect the value of securities. The Custodian will provide to the Board quarterly written reports regarding the Trust’s foreign custody arrangements.

Line of Credit. Each Fund, along with other funds managed by the Adviser, participates in a 364 day committed credit facility and a 364-day uncommitted, demand credit facility with Citibank, N.A. (Citibank). Each such credit facility may be renewed if so agreed by the parties. Under the agreement with Citibank, the Funds may borrow up to $600 million, of which $300 million is committed and $300 million is uncommitted. Of this amount, $40 million of the committed line of credit and $60 million of the uncommitted line of credit are reserved for use by the Victory Floating Rate Fund (a series of Victory Portfolios), with that Fund paying the related commitment fees for that amount. The purpose of each agreement is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs. For the committed credit facility, Citibank received an annual commitment fee of 0.15%. Each Fund pays a pro-rata portion (adjusted for the amount of credit reserved for the Victory Floating Rate Fund) of these fees and pays the interest on any amount that it borrows. Each Fund paid a pro-rata portion of the renewal fee.

58

Securities Lending

The Trust has entered into a Master Securities Lending Agreement (“MSLA”) with Citibank whereby Citibank serves as the Funds’ lending agent and facilitates the Funds’ lending program. Under the terms of the MSLA, each Fund may lend securities to certain broker-dealers and banks in exchange for collateral in the amount of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned or at least 105% of the value of non-U.S. securities loaned, marked to market daily. The collateral can be received in the form of cash collateral and/or non-cash collateral. Non-cash collateral can include U.S. Government Securities, letters of credit and certificates of deposit. The Funds earn interest or dividends on the securities loaned and may also earn a return from the collateral.

The Funds pay various fees in connection with the investment of cash collateral. The Funds pay Citibank fees based on the investment income received from securities lending activities. In its role as securities lending agent, Citibank (1) arranges and administers the loan of securities when establishing a loan and the return of securities upon termination of a loan, (2) collects from borrowers cash, securities or other instruments to serve as collateral for the loans, (3) monitors the value of securities on loan and the value of the corresponding collateral, (4) communicates to each borrower the minimum amount of collateral required for each loan and collects additional collateral as required on a daily basis to maintain such minimum, (5) collects or arranges for the collection of any interest, dividends or other distributions related to loaned securities, and (6) performs other necessary services related to the establishment and maintenance of the Funds’ securities lending program.

The following reflects the dollar amounts of income and fees/compensation related to the Funds’ securities lending activities during the Funds’ last completed fiscal year:

Distributor

Victory Capital Services, Inc. (the “Distributor”), located at 4900 Tiedeman Road, 4th Floor, Brooklyn OH 44144, serves as distributor for the continuous offering of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement between the Distributor and the Trust dated August 1, 2013, as amended (the “Distribution Agreement”). Unless otherwise terminated, the Distribution Agreement will remain in effect with respect to each Fund for two years and will continue thereafter for consecutive one-year terms, provided that the renewal is approved at least annually (1) by the Board or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of each Fund, and (2) by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Distribution Agreement or interested persons of any such party, cast in person

59

at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. The Distribution Agreement will terminate in the event of its assignment, as defined under the 1940 Act.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the SEC issued the Order providing temporary relief from in person voting requirements subject to meeting certain conditions of the Order.

The following table reflects the total underwriting commissions and the amount of those commissions retained by the Distributor in connection with the sale of shares of each Fund for the last three fiscal years ended June 30.

RULE 12b-1 DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLANS

The Trust has adopted distribution and service plans in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (each a “Rule 12b-1 Plan”) on behalf of Class A, Class C and Class R shares of various Funds. Rule 12b-1 provides in substance that a mutual fund may not engage directly or indirectly in financing any activity that is primarily intended to result in the sale of shares of such mutual fund except pursuant to a plan adopted by the fund under the Rule.

Class A Rule 12b-1 Plan. Under the Trust’s Class A Rule 12b-1 Plan, Class A shares of each Fund pay the Distributor a distribution and service fee of up to 0.25%. Under the Class A Rule 12b-1 Plan, the Distributor may use Rule 12b-1 fees for: (a) costs of printing and distributing each such Fund’s Prospectus, SAI and reports to prospective Class A investors in these Funds; (b) costs involved in preparing, printing and distributing sales literature pertaining to Class A shares of the Funds; (c) an allocation of overhead and other branch office distribution-related expenses of the Distributor; (d) payments to persons who provide support services in connection with the distribution of each such Fund’s Class A shares, including but not limited to, office space and equipment, telephone facilities, answering routine inquiries regarding the Funds, processing shareholder transactions and providing any other shareholder services not otherwise provided by the Funds’ transfer agent; (e) accruals for interest on the amount of the foregoing expenses that exceed the distribution fee and the contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSCs”) received by the Distributor; and (f) any other expense primarily intended to result in the sale of the Funds’ Class A shares, including, without limitation, payments to salespersons and selling dealers at the time of the sale of such shares, if applicable, and continuing fees to each such salesperson and selling dealers, which fee shall begin to accrue immediately after the sale of such Class A shares.

The Class A Rule 12b-1 Plan specifically recognizes that either the Adviser or the Distributor, directly or through an affiliate, may use its fee revenue, past profits, or other resources, without limitation, to pay promotional and administrative expenses in connection with the offer and sale of Class A shares of the Funds. In addition, the Class A Rule 12b-1 Plan provides that the Adviser and the Distributor may use their respective resources, including fee revenues, to make payments to third parties that provide assistance in selling the Funds’ Class A shares, or to third parties, including banks, that render shareholder support services to holders of Class A shares, or to third parties, including banks, that render shareholder support services.

60

Class C Rule 12b-1 Plan. Under the Trust’s Class C Rule 12b-1 Plan, Class C shares of each of applicable Fund pay the Distributor a distribution and service fee of 1.00%. The Distributor may use fees received under the Class C Rule 12b-1 Plan to pay for activities primarily intended to result in the sale of Class C shares, including but not limited to: (i) costs of printing and distributing a Fund’s Prospectus, SAI and reports to prospective investors in Class C shares of the Fund; (ii) costs involved in preparing, printing and distributing sales literature pertaining to a Class C shares of a Fund; and (iii) payments to salespersons and selling dealers at the time of the sale of Class C shares, if applicable, and continuing fees to each such salesperson and selling dealers, which fees shall begin to accrue immediately after the sale of such Class C shares. Fees may also be used to pay persons, including but not limited to the Funds’ transfer agent, any sub-transfer agents, or any administrators, for providing services to the Funds and their Class C shareholders, including but not limited to: (i) maintaining shareholder accounts; (ii) answering routine inquiries regarding a Fund; (iii) processing shareholder transactions; and (iv) providing any other shareholder services not otherwise provided by a Fund’s transfer agent. In addition, the Distributor may use the Rule 12b-1 fees paid under the Class C Rule 12b-1 Plan for an allocation of overhead and other branch office distribution-related expenses of the Distributor such as office space and equipment and telephone facilities, and for accruals for interest on the amount of the foregoing expenses that exceed the Distribution Fee and the CDSC received by the Distributor. Of the 1.00% permitted under the Class C Rule 12b-1 Plan, no more than the maximum amount permitted by the NASD Conduct Rules will be used to finance activities primarily intended to result in the sale of Class C shares.

Class R Rule 12b-1 Plan. Under the Trust’s Class R Rule 12b-1 Plan, Class R shares of each applicable Fund pay the Distributor a distribution and service fee of up to 0.50%. Under the Class R Rule 12b-1 Plan, the Distributor may use Rule 12b-1 fees for: (a) costs of printing and distributing each such Fund’s Prospectus, SAI and reports to prospective investors in Class R shares of the Funds; (b) costs involved in preparing, printing and distributing sales literature pertaining to Class R shares of the Funds; (c) an allocation of overhead and other branch office distribution-related expenses of the Distributor; (d) payments to persons who provide support services in connection with the distribution of each such Fund’s Class R shares, including but not limited to, office space and equipment, telephone facilities, answering routine inquiries regarding the Funds, processing shareholder transactions and providing any other shareholder services not otherwise provided by the Funds’ transfer agent; (e) accruals for interest on the amount of the foregoing expenses that exceed the distribution fee and the CDSCs received by the Distributor; and (f) any other expense primarily intended to result in the sale of the Funds’ Class R shares, including, without limitation, payments to salespersons and selling dealers at the time of the sale of Class R shares, if applicable, and continuing fees to each such salespersons and selling dealers, which fee shall begin to accrue immediately after the sale of such Class R shares.

The Class R Rule 12b-1 Plan specifically recognizes that either the Adviser or the Distributor, directly or through an affiliate, may use its fee revenue, past profits, or other resources, without limitation, to pay promotional and administrative expenses in connection with the offer and sale of Class R shares of these Funds. In addition, the Class R Rule 12b-1 Plan provides that the Adviser and the Distributor may use their respective resources, including fee revenues, to make payments to third parties that provide assistance in selling these Funds’ Class R shares, or to third parties, including banks, that render shareholder support services to holders of Class R shares. To the extent that a Plan gives the Adviser or the Distributor greater flexibility in connection with the distribution of Class R shares of the Funds, additional sales of these shares may result.

Rule 12b-1 Plans. The amount of the Rule 12b-1 fees payable by any share class of a Fund under these Rule 12b-1 Plans is considered compensation and is not related directly to expenses incurred by the Distributor. None of the Rule 12b-1 Plans obligate a Fund to reimburse the Distributor for such expenses. The fees set forth under any Rule 12b-1 Plan will be paid by the respective share class of a Fund to the Distributor unless and until such Plan is terminated or not renewed with respect to the relevant share class of a Fund; any distribution or service expenses incurred by the Distributor on behalf of the Funds in excess of payments of the distribution fees specified above that the Distributor has accrued through the termination date are the sole responsibility and liability of the Distributor and not an obligation of any such Fund.

Each of the Rule 12b-1 Plans has been approved by the Board, including the Independent Trustees, at a meeting called for that purpose. As required by Rule 12b-1, the Board carefully considered all pertinent factors relating to the implementation of the Plans prior to their approval and determined that there was a reasonable likelihood that the Plans would benefit the Funds and shareholders of the applicable class. Additionally, certain support services covered under a Plan may be provided more effectively under the Plan by local entities with whom shareholders have other relationships or by the shareholder’s broker.

In response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, the SEC issued the Order providing temporary relief from in person voting requirements subject to meeting certain conditions of the Order.

The following table reflects the aggregate payment of Rule 12b-1 fees to the Distributor pursuant to the Plans for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. All such payments consisted of compensation to broker-dealers.

CODE OF ETHICS

The Trust and the Adviser each have adopted a Code of Ethics in accordance with Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act. The Adviser’s Code of Ethics applies to all of the Adviser’s directors and officers and employees with investment advisory duties (“Access Personnel”) and all of the Adviser’s directors, officers and employees (“Supervised Personnel”). Each Code of Ethics provides that Access Personnel must refrain from certain trading practices. Each Code also requires all Access Personnel (and, in the Adviser Code, all Supervised Personnel) to report certain personal investment activities, including, but not limited to, purchases or sales of securities that may be purchased or held by a Fund. Violations of any Code of Ethics can result in penalties, suspension, or termination of employment.

PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

In accordance with the 1940 Act, the Trust has adopted policies and procedures for voting proxies related to equity securities held by the Funds (the “Proxy Voting Policy”). The Trust’s Proxy Voting Policy is designed to: (i) ensure that proxies are voted in the best interests of shareholders of the Funds with a view toward maximizing the value of their investments; (ii) address conflicts of interests

62

between these shareholders, on the one hand, and affiliates of the Fund, the Adviser or the Distributor, on the other, that may arise regarding the voting of proxies; and (iii) provide for the disclosure of the Funds’ proxy voting records and the Proxy Voting Policy.

The Proxy Voting Policy delegates to the Adviser the obligation to vote the Funds’ proxies in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders, subject to oversight by the Board.

To assist the Adviser in making proxy-voting decisions, the Adviser has adopted a Proxy Voting Policy (“Policy”) that establishes voting guidelines (“Proxy Voting Guidelines”) with respect to certain recurring issues. The Policy is reviewed on an annual basis by the Adviser’s Proxy Committee (“Proxy Committee”) and revised when the Committee determines that a change is appropriate. The Board annually reviews the Trust’s Proxy Voting Policy and the Adviser’s Policy and determines whether amendments are necessary or advisable. Voting under the Adviser’s Policy may be executed through administrative screening per established guidelines with oversight by the Proxy Committee or upon vote by a quorum of the Proxy Committee. The Adviser delegates to Institutional Shareholder Services (“ISS”), an independent service provider, the non-discretionary administration of proxy voting for the Trust, subject to oversight by the Adviser’s Proxy Committee. In no circumstances shall ISS have the authority to vote proxies except in accordance with standing or specific instructions given to it by the Adviser.

The Adviser votes proxies in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders. This entails voting client proxies with the objective of increasing the long-term economic value of Fund assets. The Adviser’s Proxy Committee determines how proxies are voted by following established guidelines, which are intended to assist in voting proxies and are not considered to be rigid rules. The Proxy Committee is directed to apply the guidelines as appropriate. On occasion, however, a contrary vote may be warranted when such action is in the best interests of the Funds or if required by the Board or the Funds’ Proxy Voting Policy. In such cases, the Adviser may consider, among other things:

•  the effect of the proposal on the underlying value of the securities

• the effect on marketability of the securities

• the effect of the proposal on future prospects of the issuer

• the composition and effectiveness of the issuer’s board of directors

• the issuer’s corporate governance practices

• the quality of communications from the issuer to its shareholders

The following examples illustrate the Adviser’s policy with respect to some common proxy votes. This summary is not an exhaustive list of all the issues that may arise or of all matters addressed in the Guidelines, and whether the Adviser supports or opposes a proposal will depend upon the specific facts and circumstances described in the proxy statement and other available information.

Directors

• The Adviser generally supports the election of directors in uncontested elections, except when there are issues of accountability, responsiveness, composition, and/or independence.

• The Adviser generally supports proposals for an independent chair taking into account factors such as the current board leadership structure, the company’s governance practices, and company performance.

• The Adviser generally supports proxy access proposals that are in line with the market standards regarding the ownership threshold, ownership duration, aggregation provisions, cap on nominees, and do not contain any other unreasonably restrictive guidelines.

• The Adviser reviews contested elections on a case-by-case basis taking into account such factors as the company performance, particularly the long-term performance relative to the industry; the management track record; the nominee qualifications and compensatory arrangements; the strategic plan of the dissident and its critique of the current management; the likelihood that the proposed goals and objectives can be achieved; the ownership stakes of the relevant parties; and any other context that is particular to the company and the nature of the election.

Capitalization & Restructuring

• The Adviser generally supports capitalization proposals that facilitate a corporate transaction that is also being supported and for general corporate purposes so long as the increase is not excessive and there are no issues of superior voting rights, company performance, previous abuses of capital, or insufficient justification for the need for additional capital.

63

Mergers and Acquisitions

• The Adviser reviews mergers and acquisitions on a case-by-case basis to balance the merits and drawbacks of the transaction and factors such as valuation, strategic rationale, negotiations and process, conflicts of interest, and the governance profile of the company post-transaction.

Compensation

• The Adviser reviews all compensation proposals for pay-for-performance alignment, with emphasis on long-term shareholder value; arrangements that risk pay for failure; independence in the setting of compensation; inappropriate pay to non-executive directors, and the quality and rationale of the compensation disclosure.

• The Adviser will generally vote FOR advisory votes on executive compensation (“say on pay”) unless there is a pay-for-performance misalignment; problematic pay practice or non-performance based element; incentive for excessive risk-taking, options backdating; or a lack of compensation committee communication and/or responsiveness to shareholder concerns.

• The Adviser will vote case-by-case on equity based compensation plans taking into account factors such as the plan cost; the plan features; and the grant practices as well as any overriding factors that may have a significant negative impact on shareholder interests.

Social and Environmental Issues

• The Adviser will vote case-by-case on topics such as consumer and product safety; environment and energy; labor standards and human rights; workplace and board diversity; and corporate and political issues, taking into account factors such as the implementation of the proposal is likely to enhance or protect shareholder value; whether the company has already responded in an appropriate and sufficient manner to the issue raised; whether the request is unduly burdensome; and whether the issue is more appropriately or effectively handled through legislation or other regulations.

The Adviser may also take into account independent third-party, general industry guidance or other corporate governance review sources when making decisions. It may additionally seek guidance from other senior internal sources with special expertise on a given topic where it is appropriate. The investment team’s opinion concerning the management and prospects of the issuer may be taken into account in determining whether a vote for or against a proposal is in a Fund’s best interests. Insufficient information, onerous requests or vague, ambiguous wording may indicate that a vote against a proposal is appropriate, even when the general principal appears to be reasonable. Occasionally, conflicts of interest arise between the Adviser’s interests and those of a Fund or another client. When this occurs, the Proxy Committee must document the nature of the conflict and vote the proxy in accordance with the Proxy Voting Guidelines unless such guidelines are judged by the Proxy Committee to be inapplicable to the proxy matter at issue. In the event that the Proxy Voting Guidelines are inapplicable or do not mitigate the conflict, the Adviser will seek the opinion of the Adviser’s Chief Compliance Officer or consult with an external independent adviser. In the case of a Proxy Committee member having a personal conflict of interest (e.g. a family member is on the board of the issuer), such member will abstain from voting. Finally, the Adviser reports to the Board annually any proxy votes that took place involving a conflict, including the nature of the conflict and the basis or rationale for the voting decision made.

The Funds’ Proxy Voting Policy provides that the Funds, in accordance with SEC rules, annually will disclose on Form N- PX the Funds’ proxy voting record. Information regarding how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30th is updated each year by August 31st and is available without charge, upon request, by calling toll free 800-539-FUND (800-539-3863) or by accessing the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS AND BROKERAGE

Subject to the general supervision of the Board, the Adviser is responsible for making decisions with respect to the purchase and sale of portfolio securities on behalf of the Funds. The Adviser is also responsible for the implementation of those decisions, including the selection of broker/dealers to effect portfolio transactions, the negotiation of commissions, and the allocation of principal business and portfolio brokerage. Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser may delegate these responsibilities to a sub-adviser.

Transactions on stock exchanges involve the payment of brokerage commissions. In transactions on stock exchanges in the United States, these commissions are negotiated. Traditionally, commission rates have generally been fixed for trades on stock markets outside the United States. In recent years, however, an increasing number of overseas stock markets have adopted a system of negotiated commission rates. It is expected that equity securities will ordinarily be purchased in the primary markets for such securities, whether over-the-counter or listed, and that listed securities may be purchased in the over-the-counter market if such market is deemed the primary market. In the case of securities traded on the over-the- counter markets, there is generally no stated commission, but the

64

price usually includes an undisclosed commission or markup. In underwritten offerings, the price includes a disclosed, fixed commission (the underwriter’s concession) or discount.

Fixed income and convertible securities are bought and sold through broker-dealers acting on a principal basis. These trades generally are not charged a commission, but rather are marked up or marked down by the executing broker-dealer. The Adviser does not know the actual value of the markup/markdown. However, the Adviser attempts to ascertain whether the overall price of a security is reasonable through the use of competitive bids.

Subject to its obligation to seek best execution, the Adviser may use brokerage commissions generated from client transactions to obtain services and/or research from broker-dealers to assist in the Adviser’s investment management decision-making process. These services and research are in addition to and do not replace the services and research that the Adviser is required to perform and do not reduce the investment advisory fees payable to the Adviser by the Funds. Such information may be useful to the Adviser in serving both the Funds and other clients and, conversely, such supplemental research information obtained by the placement of orders on behalf of other clients may be useful to the Adviser in carrying out its obligations to the Funds.

Brokerage commissions may never be used to compensate a third party for client referrals unless the client has directed such an arrangement. In addition, brokerage commissions may never be used to obtain research and/or services for the sole benefit of any employee or non-client entity.

It is the policy of the Adviser to seek the “best execution” of its clients’ securities transactions. The Adviser strives to execute each client’s securities transactions in such a manner that the client’s total costs or proceeds in each transaction are the most favorable under the circumstances. Commission rates paid on securities transactions for client accounts must reflect comparative market rates.

The Adviser will consider the full range and quality of a broker’s services in placing brokerage including, but not limited to, the value of research provided, execution capability, commission rate, willingness and ability to commit capital, ownership and responsiveness. The lowest possible commission cost alone does not determine broker selection. The transaction that represents the best quality execution for a client account will be executed. Commission ranges and the actual commission paid for trades of listed stocks and over-the-counter stocks may vary depending on, but not limited to, the liquidity and volatility of the stock and services provided to the Adviser by the broker.

The Adviser will make a good faith determination that the commissions paid are reasonable in relationship to the value of the services received. The continuous review of stock commissions is the responsibility of the Adviser’s Head of Capital Markets and client trading, brokerage and soft-dollar oversight is performed by the Trade Oversight Committee. Quarterly, the Adviser’s research analysts and portfolio managers will participate in a broker vote. The Adviser’s Equity Trading Desk will utilize the vote results during the broker selection process. Some brokers executing trades for the Adviser’s clients may, from time to time, receive liquidity rebates in connection with the routing of trades to Electronic Communications Networks. Since the Adviser is not a broker, however, it is ineligible to receive such rebates and does not obtain direct benefits for its clients from this broker practice.

Investment decisions for each Fund are made independently from those made for the other Funds or any other investment company or account managed by the Adviser. Such other investment companies or accounts may also invest in the same securities and may follow similar investment strategies as the Funds. The Adviser may combine transaction orders (“bunching” or “blocking” trades) for more than one client account where such action appears to be equitable and potentially advantageous for each account (e.g., for the purpose of reducing brokerage commissions or obtaining a more favorable transaction price.) The Adviser will aggregate transaction orders only if it believes that the aggregation is consistent with its duty to seek best execution for its clients and is consistent with the terms of investment advisory agreements with each client for whom trades are being aggregated. Both equity and fixed income securities may be aggregated. When making such a combination of transaction orders for a new issue or secondary market trade in an equity security, the Adviser adheres to the following objectives:

•  Fairness to clients both in the participation of execution of orders for their account, and in the allocation of orders for the accounts of more than one client.

• Allocation of all orders in a timely and efficient manner.

In some rare cases, “bunching” or “blocking” trades may affect the price paid or received by a Fund or the size of the position obtained by the Fund in an adverse manner relative to the result that would have been obtained if only that particular Fund had participated in or been allocated such trades.

The aggregation of transactions for advisory accounts and proprietary accounts (including partnerships and other accounts in which the Adviser or its associated persons are partners or participants, and managed employee accounts) is permissible. However, no proprietary account may be favored over any other participating account and such practice must be consistent with the Adviser’s policies and procedures including its Code of Ethics.

65

Equity trade orders are executed based only on trade instructions received from portfolio managers by the trading desk. Portfolio managers may enter trades to meet the full target allocation immediately or may meet the allocation through moves in incremental blocks. Orders are processed on a “first-come, first-served” basis. At times, a rotation system may determine “first-come, first-served” treatment when the equity trading desk receives the same order for multiple accounts simultaneously. The Adviser will utilize a rotation whereby the Funds, even if aggregated with other orders, are in the first block(s) to trade within the rotation. To aggregate orders, the equity trading desk must determine that all accounts in the order will benefit. Any new trade that can be blocked with an existing open order may be added to the open order to form a larger block. The Adviser receives no additional compensation or remuneration of any kind as a result of the aggregation of trades. All accounts participating in a block execution receive the same execution price, an average share price, for securities purchased or sold on a trading day. Execution prices may not be carried overnight. Any portion of an order that remains unfilled at the end of a given day shall be rewritten (absent contrary instructions) on the following day as a new order. Accounts with trades executed the next day will receive a new daily average price to be determined at the end of the following day.

If the order is filled in its entirety, securities purchased in the aggregate transaction will be allocated among accounts participating in the trade in accordance with an Allocation Statement prepared at the time of order entry. If the order is partially filled, the securities will be allocated pro rata based on the Allocation Statement. Portfolio managers may allocate executed trades in a different manner than indicated on the Allocation Statement (e.g., non-pro rata) only if all client accounts receive fair and equitable treatment.

In some instances, such as trading in fixed income securities, it may not be practical to complete the Allocation Statement prior to the placement of the order. In that case, the trading desk will complete the Allocation Statement as soon as practicable, but no later than the end of the same business day on which the securities have been allocated to the trading desk by the broker.

Where the full amount of a block execution is not executed, the partial amount actually executed will be allocated on a pro rata basis whenever possible. The following execution methods may be used in place of a pro rata procedure: relative size allocations, security position weighting, priority for specialized accounts, or a special allocation based on compliance approval.

In making investment decisions for the Funds, the Adviser will not inquire or take into consideration whether an issuer of securities proposed for purchase or sale by a Fund is a customer of the Adviser, its parents, subsidiaries or affiliates, and, in dealing with their commercial customers, the Adviser, its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates will not inquire or take into consideration whether securities of such customers are held by the Funds. Portfolio securities will not be purchased from or sold to the Adviser, or the Distributor, or any affiliated person of any of them acting as principal, except to the extent permitted by rule or order of the SEC.

The following table shows the dollar amount of brokerage commissions paid by each Fund during the last three fiscal years ended June 30, all of which were paid to entities that are not affiliated with the Funds, the Adviser or the Distributor.

Affiliated Brokerage. The Board has authorized the allocation of brokerage to affiliated broker-dealers on an agency basis to effect portfolio transactions. The Board has adopted procedures incorporating the standards of Rule 17e-1 under the 1940 Act, which require that the commission paid to affiliated broker-dealers must be “reasonable and fair compared to the commission, fee or other remuneration received, or to be received, by other broker-dealers in connection with comparable transactions involving similar securities during a comparable period of time.”

The Trust will not acquire portfolio securities issued by, make savings deposits in, or enter into repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements with the Adviser or its affiliates. From time to time, when determined by the Adviser to be advantageous to the Funds, the Adviser may execute portfolio transactions through affiliated broker-dealers. All such transactions must be consistent with best execution and completed in accordance with procedures approved by the Board. For the last three fiscal years ended June 30, the Funds paid no commissions to affiliated broker-dealers.

66

Allocation of Brokerage in Connection with Research Services. During the last fiscal year ended June 30, the Adviser, through agreements or understandings with brokers, or otherwise through an internal allocation procedure, did not direct brokerage transactions of the Funds to brokers due to research services provided.

Portfolio Turnover

Each Fund may sell a portfolio investment soon after its acquisition if the Adviser believes that such a disposition is consistent with attaining the investment objective of the Fund. The Funds’ portfolio turnover rates stated in the Prospectuses are calculated by dividing the lesser of each Fund’s purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the year by the monthly average value of the portfolio securities. The calculation excludes all securities whose maturities, at the time of acquisition, were one year or less. Portfolio turnover is calculated on the basis of a Fund as a whole without distinguishing between the classes of shares issued.

The turnover rate for a Fund will vary from year-to-year, and, depending on market conditions, could be greater in periods of unusual market movement and volatility. Transaction costs associated with turnover are borne directly by the Fund and, ultimately, by its shareholders. A high rate of portfolio turnover (generally, over 100% annually) will generally involve correspondingly greater transaction costs. High portfolio turnover may result in the realization of substantial net capital gains. To the extent short-term capital gains are realized, distributions attributable to such gains will be ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

67

The following table shows the portfolio turnover rates for each Fund for the two most recent fiscal years ended June 30.

 

Fund	2021	2020
Victory Integrity Discovery Fund	41%	40%
Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund	67%	82%
Victory Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund	56%	80%
Victory Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund	61%	72%
Victory Munder Multi-Cap Fund	70%	100%
Victory S&P 500 Index Fund	3%	4%
Victory Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund	103%	86%
Victory Munder Small Cap Growth Fund	28%	56%
Victory Trivalent International Fund-Core Equity	47%	49%
Victory Trivalent International Small-Cap Fund	64%	52%
Victory INCORE Total Return Bond Fund	79%	74%

DIVIDENDS, CAPITAL GAINS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

The Funds distribute substantially all of their net investment income and net capital gains, if any, to shareholders within each calendar year as well as on a fiscal year basis to the extent required for the Funds to qualify for favorable federal tax treatment. The Funds ordinarily declare and pay dividends separately for each class of shares, from their net investment income. The S&P 500 Index Fund declares and pays dividends quarterly. The INCORE Total Return Bond Fund pays dividends monthly. Each of the Integrity Discovery Fund, Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund, Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund, Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund, Munder Multi-Cap Fund, Munder Small Cap Growth, Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund and International Funds declare and pay dividends annually.

The amount of a class’s distributions may vary from time to time depending on market conditions, the composition of a Fund’s portfolio and expenses borne by a Fund or borne separately by a class. Dividends are calculated in the same manner, at the same time and on the same day for shares of each class. However, dividends attributable to a particular class will differ due to differences in distribution expenses and other class-specific expenses.

For this purpose, the net income of a Fund, from the time of the immediately preceding determination thereof, shall consist of all interest income accrued on the portfolio assets of the Fund, dividend income, if any, income from securities loans, if any and realized capital gains and losses on the Fund’s assets, less all expenses and liabilities of the Fund chargeable against income. Interest income shall include discount earned, including both original issue and market discount, on discount paper accrued ratably to the date of maturity. Expenses, including the compensation payable to the Adviser, are accrued each day. The expenses and liabilities of a Fund shall include those appropriately allocable to the Fund as well as a share of the general expenses and liabilities of the Trust in proportion to the Fund’s share of the total net assets of the Trust.

TAXES

Information set forth in the Prospectuses that relates to federal income taxation is only a summary of certain key federal income tax considerations generally affecting purchasers of shares of the Funds. The following is only a summary of certain additional income and excise tax considerations generally affecting each Fund and its shareholders that are not described in the Prospectuses. No attempt has been made to present a complete explanation of the federal tax treatment of the Funds or the implications to shareholders and the discussions here and in each Fund’s Prospectus are not intended as substitutes for careful tax planning. Accordingly, potential purchasers of shares of the Funds are urged to consult their tax advisers with specific reference to their own tax circumstances. Special tax considerations may apply to certain types of investors subject to special treatment under the Code (including, for example, insurance companies, banks and tax-exempt organizations). In addition, the following summary does not describe the tax consequences to foreign trusts, foreign estates and foreign partnerships. Lastly, the tax discussion in the Prospectuses and this SAI is based on tax law in effect on the date of the Prospectuses and this SAI; such laws and regulations may be changed by legislative, judicial, or administrative action, sometimes with retroactive effect.

Qualification as a Regulated Investment Company

Each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code. As a regulated investment company, a Fund is not subject to federal income tax on the portion of its net investment income (i.e., taxable interest, dividends and other taxable ordinary income, net of expenses) and net capital gain (i.e., the excess of long-term capital gains over short-term capital losses) that it distributes to shareholders, provided that it distributes at least the sum of 90% of its investment company taxable income (i.e., net investment income and the excess of net short-term capital gain over net long-term capital loss) and 90% of its tax-exempt income (net of expenses allocable thereto) for the taxable year (the “Distribution Requirement”) and satisfies certain other requirements of the Code

68

that are described below. Distributions by a Fund made during the taxable year or, under specified circumstances, within twelve months after the close of the taxable year, will be considered distributions of income and gains for the taxable year and will therefore count toward satisfaction of the Distribution Requirement.

If a Fund has a net capital loss (i.e., an excess of capital losses over capital gains), the amount thereof may be carried forward and would retain its character as either a short-term capital loss or a long-term capital loss that can be used to offset such capital gains in future years. There is no limitation on the number of years to which net capital losses may be carried. However, the amount of capital loss that can be carried forward and used in any single year is subject to an annual limitation if there is a more than 50% “change in ownership” of the Fund.

The following table summarizes the capital loss carryforwards not subject to expiration for the applicable Funds as of June 30, 2021.

 

Fund	Short-Term Amount	Long-Term Amount
Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund	$931	$-
Victory Trivalent International Fund-Core Equity	$2,216	$-
Victory INCORE Total Return Bond Fund	$460	$ 3,285

In addition to satisfying the Distribution Requirement, a regulated investment company must derive at least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, certain payments with respect to securities loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities or foreign currencies (to the extent such currency gains are directly related to the regulated investment company’s principal business of investing in stock or securities), other income (including but not limited to gains from options, futures, or forward contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in such stock, securities, or currencies and net income from interests in qualified publicly traded partnerships (the “Income Requirement”).

A regulated investment company, in determining its investment company taxable income and net capital gain (i.e., the excess of net long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) for any taxable year, may elect (unless it has made a taxable year election for excise tax purposes as discussed below, in which case different rules apply) to treat all or any part of certain net capital losses incurred after October 31 of a taxable year, and certain net ordinary losses incurred after October 31 or December 31 of a taxable year, as if they had been incurred in the succeeding taxable year.

In addition to satisfying the Income and Distribution Requirements described above, a Fund must satisfy an asset diversification test in order to qualify as a regulated investment company. Under this test, at the close of each quarter of a Fund’s taxable year, at least 50% of the value of the Fund’s assets must consist of cash and cash items, U.S. government securities, securities of other regulated investment companies and securities of other issuers (provided that, with respect to each issuer, the Fund has not invested more than 5% of the value of the Fund’s total assets in securities of each such issuer and the Fund does not hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of each such issuer), and no more than 25% of the value of its total assets may be invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. government securities and securities of other regulated investment companies), two or more issuers that the Fund controls and that are engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses (other than securities of other regulated investment companies), or the securities of one or more qualified publicly traded partnerships. Generally, an option (call or put) with respect to a security is treated as issued by the issuer of the security, not the issuer of the option. For purposes of asset diversification testing, obligations issued or guaranteed by certain agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government, such as the Federal Agricultural Mortgage Corporation, the Federal Farm Credit System Financial Assistance Corporation, FHLB, FHLMC, FNMA, GNMA and SLMA, are treated as U.S. government securities.

Certain Funds may invest in futures contracts, options on futures contracts and other similar investments that provide exposure to commodities such as gold or other precious metals, energy or other commodities. Income or gain, if any, from such investments may not be qualifying income for purposes of the Income Requirements and a Fund’s investments in such instruments may not be treated as an investment in a “security” for purposes of the asset diversification test.

If for any taxable year a Fund does not qualify as a regulated investment company after taking into account cure provisions available for certain failures to so qualify (certain of which would result in the imposition of a tax on the Fund), all of its taxable income (including its net capital gain) will be subject to tax at the regular corporate rate without any deduction for distributions to shareholders and such distributions will be taxable to the shareholders as dividends to the extent of the Fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits. Such distributions may be eligible for: (i) the dividends-received deduction, in the case of corporate shareholders; or (ii) treatment as “qualified dividend income,” in the case of non-corporate shareholders. In addition, to qualify again to be taxed as a regulated investment company in a subsequent year, the Fund would be required to distribute to shareholders its earnings and profits attributable to non-qualifying years. Further, if the Fund failed to qualify for a period greater than two taxable years, then, in order to qualify as a regulated investment company in a subsequent year, the Fund would be required to elect to recognize and pay tax on any net built-in gain (i.e., the excess of aggregate gain, including items of income, over aggregate loss that would have been realized if the Fund had been liquidated) or, alternatively, be subject to taxation on such built-in gain recognized for a period of five years.

69

Excise Tax on Regulated Investment Companies

A 4% non-deductible excise tax is imposed on a regulated investment company that fails to distribute in each calendar year an amount equal to at least the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary taxable income for the calendar year and (ii) 98.2% of its capital gain net income for the one-year period ended on October 31 of such calendar year (or, with respect to capital gain net income, at the election of a regulated investment company having a taxable year ending November 30 or December 31, for its taxable year (a “taxable year election”)). Tax-exempt interest on municipal obligations is not subject to the excise tax. The balance of such income must be distributed during the next calendar year. For the foregoing purposes, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by a regulated investment company that is subject to corporate income tax will be treated as having been distributed during the taxable year ending in such calendar year.

Each Fund intends to make sufficient distributions or deemed distributions of its ordinary taxable income and capital gain net income prior to the end of each calendar year to avoid liability for the excise tax. However, investors should note that a Fund may in certain circumstances be required to liquidate portfolio investments to make sufficient distributions to avoid excise tax liability.

Fund Investments

In general, gain or loss recognized by a Fund on the disposition of an asset will be a capital gain or loss. In addition, gain will be recognized as a result of certain constructive sales, including short sales “against the box.” However, gain recognized on the disposition of a debt obligation (including municipal obligations) purchased by a Fund at a market discount (generally, at a price less than its principal amount) will be treated as ordinary income to the extent of the portion of the market discount that accrued while the Fund held the debt obligation. In addition, under the rules of Code Section 988, gain or loss recognized on the disposition of a debt obligation denominated in a foreign currency or an option with respect thereto, and gain or loss recognized on the disposition of a foreign currency forward contract, futures contract, option or similar financial instrument, or of foreign currency itself, except for regulated futures contracts or non-equity options subject to Code Section 1256 (unless a Fund elects otherwise), generally will be treated as ordinary income or loss to the extent attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Certain transactions that may be engaged in by a Fund (such as regulated futures contracts, certain foreign currency contracts and options on stock indexes and futures contracts) will be subject to special tax treatment as “Section 1256 Contracts.” Section 1256 Contracts are treated as if they are sold for their fair market value on the last business day of the taxable year, even though a taxpayer’s obligations (or rights) under such Section 1256 Contracts have not terminated (by delivery, exercise, entering into a closing transaction, or otherwise) as of such date. Any gain or loss recognized as a consequence of the year-end deemed disposition of Section 1256 Contracts is taken into account for the taxable year together with any other gain or loss that was recognized previously upon the termination of Section 1256 Contracts during that taxable year. Any capital gain or loss for the taxable year with respect to Section 1256 Contracts (including any capital gain or loss arising as a consequence of the year-end deemed sale of such Section 1256 Contracts) generally is treated as 60% long-term capital gain or loss and 40% short-term capital gain or loss. A Fund, however, may elect not to have this special tax treatment apply to Section 1256 Contracts that are part of a “mixed straddle” with other investments of the Fund that are not Section 1256 Contracts.

A Fund may enter into notional principal contracts, including interest rate swaps, caps, floors and collars. Treasury Regulations provide, in general, that the net income or net deduction from a notional principal contract for a taxable year is included in or deducted from gross income for that taxable year. The net income or deduction from a notional principal contract for a taxable year equals the total of all of the periodic payments (generally, payments that are payable or receivable at fixed periodic intervals of one year or less during the entire term of the contract) that are recognized from that contract for the taxable year, all of the non-periodic payments (including premiums for caps, floors and collars) that are recognized from that contract for the taxable year and any termination payments that are recognized from that contract for the taxable year. No portion of a payment by a party to a notional principal contract is recognized prior to the first year to which any portion of a payment by the counterparty relates. A periodic payment is recognized ratably over the period to which it relates. In general, a non-periodic payment must be recognized over the term of the notional principal contract in a manner that reflects the economic substance of the contract. A non-periodic payment that relates to an interest rate swap, cap, floor, or collar is recognized over the term of the contract by allocating it in accordance with the values of a series of cash-settled forward or option contracts that reflect the specified index and notional principal amount upon which the notional principal contract is based (or under an alternative method provided in Treasury Regulations). A termination payment is recognized in the year the notional principal contract is extinguished, assigned, or terminated (i.e., in the year the termination payment is made).

Income from options on individual securities written by a Fund will not be recognized by the Fund for tax purposes until an option is exercised or lapses. Any gain recognized by a Fund on the lapse of, or any gain or loss recognized by a Fund from a closing transaction with respect to, an option written by the Fund will be treated as a short-term capital gain or loss. If the Fund enters into a closing transaction, the difference between the premiums received and the amount paid by the Fund to close out its position will generally be treated as short-term capital gain or loss. If an option written by the Fund is exercised, thereby requiring the Fund to sell the underlying security, the premium will increase the amount realized upon the sale of the security, and the character of any gain on such sale of the underlying security as short-term or long-term capital gain will depend on the holding period of the Fund in the

70

underlying security. Because the Fund will not have control over the exercise of the options it writes, such exercises or other required sales of the underlying securities may cause the Fund to realize gains or losses at inopportune times.

A Fund may purchase securities of certain foreign investment funds or trusts that constitute passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”) for federal income tax purposes. If a Fund invests in a PFIC, it has three separate options. First, it may elect to treat the PFIC as a qualified electing fund (a “QEF”), in which event the Fund will each year have ordinary income equal to its pro rata share of the PFIC’s ordinary earnings for the year and long-term capital gain equal to its pro rata share of the PFIC’s net capital gain for the year, regardless of whether the Fund receives distributions of any such ordinary earnings or capital gains from the PFIC, and such amounts would be subject to the 90% and excise tax distribution requirements described above. In order to make this election with respect to a PFIC in which it invests, a Fund must obtain certain information from the PFIC on an annual basis, which the PFIC may be unwilling or unable to provide. Second, a Fund that invests in marketable stock of a PFIC may make a mark-to-market election with respect to such stock. Pursuant to such election, the Fund will include as ordinary income any excess of the fair market value of such stock at the close of any taxable year over the Fund’s adjusted tax basis in the stock. If the adjusted tax basis of the PFIC stock exceeds the fair market value of the stock at the end of a given taxable year, such excess will be deductible as ordinary loss in an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such excess or the net mark-to-market gains on the stock that the Fund included in income in previous years. Solely for purposes of Code Sections 1291 through 1298, the Fund’s holding period with respect to its PFIC stock subject to the election will commence on the first day of the first taxable year beginning after the last taxable year for which the mark-to-market election applied. If the Fund makes the mark-to-market election in the first taxable year it holds PFIC stock, it will not incur the tax described below under the third option.

Finally, if a Fund does not elect to treat the PFIC as a QEF and does not make a mark-to-market election, then, in general, (1) any gain recognized by the Fund upon the sale or other disposition of its interest in the PFIC or any excess distribution received by the Fund from the PFIC will be allocated ratably over the Fund’s holding period of its interest in the PFIC stock, (2) the portion of such gain or excess distribution so allocated to the year in which the gain is recognized or the excess distribution is received shall be included in the Fund’s gross income for such year as ordinary income (and the distribution of such portion by the Fund to shareholders will be taxable as a dividend, but such portion will not be subject to tax at the Fund level), (3) the Fund shall be liable for tax on the portions of such gain or excess distribution so allocated to prior years in an amount equal to, for each such prior year, (i) the amount of gain or excess distribution allocated to such prior year multiplied by the highest corporate tax rate in effect for such prior year, plus (ii) interest on the amount determined under clause (i) for the period from the due date for filing a return for such prior year until the date for filing a return for the year in which the gain is recognized or the excess distribution is received, at the rates and methods applicable to underpayments of tax for such period, and (4) the distribution by the Fund to its shareholders of the portions of such gain or excess distribution so allocated to prior years (net of the tax payable by the Fund thereon) will be taxable to the shareholders as a dividend.

Some of the debt securities (with a fixed maturity date of more than one year from the date of issuance) that may be acquired by the Fund may be treated as debt securities that are issued originally at a discount. Generally, the amount of the original issue discount (“OID”) is treated as interest income and is included in income over the term of the debt security, even though payment of that amount is not received until a later time, usually when the debt security matures. A portion of the OID includable in income with respect to certain high-yield corporate debt securities (including certain pay-in-kind securities) may be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Some of the debt securities (with a fixed maturity date of more than one year from the date of issuance) that may be acquired by the Fund in the secondary market may be treated as having market discount. Generally, any gain recognized on the disposition of, and any partial payment of principal on, a debt security having market discount is treated as ordinary income to the extent the gain, or principal payment, does not exceed the “accrued market discount” on such debt security. Market discount generally accrues in equal daily installments. The Fund may make one or more of the elections applicable to debt securities having market discount, which could affect the character and timing of recognition of income.

A Fund that holds the foregoing kinds of securities may be required to pay out as an income distribution each year an amount, which is greater than the total amount of cash interest the Fund actually received. Such distributions may be made from the cash assets of the Fund or by liquidation of portfolio securities, if necessary (including when it is not advantageous to do so). The Fund may realize gains or losses from such liquidations. In the event the Fund realizes net capital gains from such transactions, its shareholders may receive a larger capital gain distribution, if any, than they would in the absence of such transactions.

Gain or loss on the sale of securities by the Fund will generally be long-term capital gain or loss if the securities have been held by the Fund for more than one year. Gain or loss on the sale of securities held for one year or less will be short-term capital gain or loss.

The Fund may invest in preferred securities or other securities the federal income tax treatment of which may not be clear or may be subject to recharacterization by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). To the extent the tax treatment of such securities or the income from such securities differs from the tax treatment expected by the Fund, it could affect the timing or character of income recognized by the Fund, potentially requiring the Fund to purchase or sell securities, or otherwise change its portfolio, in order to comply with the tax rules applicable to regulated investment companies under the Code.

71

The Fund may invest a portion of its net assets in below investment grade securities. Investments in these types of securities may present special tax issues for the Fund. Federal income tax rules are not entirely clear about issues such as when the Fund may cease to accrue interest, original issue discount or market discount, when and to what extent deductions may be taken for bad debts or worthless securities, how payments received on obligations in default should be allocated between principal and interest and whether modifications or exchanges of debt obligations in a bankruptcy or workout context are taxable. These and other issues could affect the Fund’s ability to distribute sufficient income to preserve its status as a regulated investment company or to avoid the imposition of U.S. federal income or excise tax.

Fund Distributions

Each Fund anticipates distributing substantially all of its investment company taxable income for each taxable year. Such distributions will be treated as dividends for federal income tax purposes and may be taxable to non-corporate shareholders as long-term capital gains (a “qualified dividend”), provided that certain requirements, as discussed below, are met. Dividends received by corporate shareholders and dividends that do not constitute qualified dividends are taxable as ordinary income. The portion of dividends received from a Fund that are qualified dividends generally will be determined on a look-through basis. If the aggregate qualified dividends received by the Fund are less than 95% of the Fund’s gross income (as specially computed), the portion of dividends received from the Fund that constitute qualified dividends will be reported by the Fund and cannot exceed the ratio that the qualified dividends received by the Fund bears to its gross income. If the aggregate qualified dividends received by the Fund equal at least 95% of its gross income, then all of the dividends received from the Fund will constitute qualified dividends.

No dividend will constitute a qualified dividend (1) if it has been paid with respect to any share of stock that the Fund has held for less than 61 days (91 days in the case of certain preferred stock) during the 121-day period (181-day period in the case of certain preferred stock) beginning on the date that is 60 days (90 days in the case of certain preferred stock) before the date on which such share becomes ex-dividend with respect to such dividend, excluding for this purpose, under the rules of Code Section 246(c), any period during which the Fund has an option to sell, is under a contractual obligation to sell, has made and not closed a short sale of, is the grantor of an option to buy, or has otherwise diminished its risk of loss by holding other positions with respect to, such (or substantially identical) stock; (2) if the non-corporate shareholder fails to meet the holding period requirements set forth in (1) with respect to its shares in the Fund to which the dividend is attributable; or (3) to the extent that the Fund (or shareholder, as applicable) is under an obligation (pursuant to a short sale or otherwise) to make related payments with respect to positions in property substantially similar or related to stock with respect to which an otherwise qualified dividend is paid.

Qualified dividends are, in general, dividends from taxable U.S. corporations and certain foreign corporations. Dividends from a foreign corporation may be qualified dividends if (1) the stock with respect to which the dividend is paid is readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, (2) the foreign corporation is incorporated in a possession of the United States or (3) the foreign corporation is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive income tax treaty with the United States that includes an exchange of information program (and that the Treasury Department determines to be satisfactory for these purposes). The Treasury Department has issued guidance identifying which treaties are satisfactory for these purposes. Notwithstanding the above, dividends received from a foreign corporation that for the taxable year of the corporation in which the dividend was paid, or the preceding taxable year, is a PFIC will not constitute qualified dividends.

Distributions attributable to dividends received by a Fund from domestic corporations will qualify for the 50% dividends-received deduction (“DRD”) for corporate shareholders only to the extent discussed below. Distributions attributable to dividends paid by a foreign corporation, a REIT or a corporation exempt from tax generally do not qualify for the DRD.

Ordinary income dividends paid by a Fund with respect to a taxable year may qualify for the 50% DRD generally available to corporations (other than corporations such as S corporations, which are not eligible for the deduction because of their special characteristics, and other than for purposes of special taxes such as the accumulated earnings tax and the personal holding company tax) to the extent of the amount of dividends received by the Fund from domestic corporations for the taxable year. No DRD will be allowed with respect to any dividend (1) if it has been received with respect to any share of stock that the Fund has held for less than 46 days (91 days in the case of certain preferred stock) during the 91-day period (181-day period in the case of certain preferred stock) beginning on the date that is 45 days (90 days in the case of certain preferred stock) before the date on which such share becomes ex-dividend with respect to such dividend, excluding for this purpose under the rules of Code Section 246(c) any period during which the Fund has an option to sell, is under a contractual obligation to sell, has made and not closed a short sale of, is the grantor of an option to buy, or has otherwise diminished its risk of loss by holding other positions with respect to, such (or substantially identical) stock; (2) to the extent that the Fund is under an obligation (pursuant to a short sale or otherwise) to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property; or (3) to the extent the stock on which the dividend is paid is treated as debt-financed under the rules of Code Section 246A. Moreover, the DRD for a corporate shareholder may be disallowed or reduced (1) if the corporate shareholder fails to satisfy the foregoing requirements with respect to its shares of the Fund or (2) by application of Code Section 246(b), which in general limits the DRD to 50% of the shareholder’s taxable income (determined without regard to the DRD and certain other items).

72

If a Fund receives a dividend (other than a capital gain dividend) in respect of any share of REIT stock, then Fund dividends attributable to that REIT dividend income (as reduced by certain fund expenses) may be reported by the Fund as eligible for the 20% deduction for “qualified REIT dividends” generally available to non-corporate shareholders under the Code. However, a dividend from a Fund may not be treated as a qualified REIT dividend (1) if it has been paid with respect to any share of REIT stock that the Fund has held for less than 46 days during the 91-day period beginning on the date that is 45 days before the date on which such share becomes ex-dividend with respect to such dividend, excluding for this purpose, under the rules of Code Section 246(c), any period during which the Fund has an option to sell, is under a contractual obligation to sell, has made and not closed a short sale of, is the grantor of an option to buy, or has otherwise diminished its risk of loss by holding other positions with respect to, such (or substantially identical) stock; (2) if the non-corporate shareholder fails to meet the holding period requirements set forth in (1) with respect to its shares in the Fund to which the dividend is attributable; or (3) to the extent that the Fund (or shareholder, as applicable) is under an obligation (pursuant to a short sale or otherwise) to make related payments with respect to positions in property substantially similar or related to stock with respect to which an otherwise qualified dividend is paid.

A Fund may either retain or distribute to shareholders its net capital gain for each taxable year. Each Fund currently intends to distribute any such amounts. If net capital gain is distributed and reported as a capital gain dividend, it will be taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gain, regardless of the length of time the shareholder has held his shares or whether such gain was recognized by the Fund prior to the date on which the shareholder acquired his shares. The Code provides, however, that under certain conditions none of the capital gain recognized upon a Fund’s disposition of domestic qualified “small business” stock will be subject to tax (with certain limitations).

Conversely, if a Fund elects to retain its net capital gain, the Fund will be subject to tax thereon (except to the extent of any available capital loss carryovers) at the corporate tax rates. If a Fund elects to retain its net capital gain, it is expected that the Fund also will elect to have shareholders of record on the last day of its taxable year treated as if each received a distribution of his pro rata share of such gain, with the result that each shareholder will be required to report his pro rata share of such gain on his tax return as long-term capital gain, will receive a refundable tax credit for his pro rata share of tax paid by the Fund on the gain, and will increase the tax basis for his shares by an amount equal to the deemed distribution less the tax credit. Organizations or persons not subject to U.S. federal income tax on such capital gains will be entitled to a refund of their pro rata share of such taxes paid by the Fund upon filing appropriate returns or claims for refund with the IRS.

Distributions by a Fund in excess of its current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of (and in reduction of) the shareholder’s tax basis in his shares; any excess will be treated as gain from the sale of his shares, as discussed below.

Distributions by a Fund will be treated in the manner described above regardless of whether such distributions are paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the Fund (if that option is available). Distributions reinvested in additional shares of the Fund will be taxable to shareholders acquiring the additional shares to the same extent as if such distributions had been received in cash. In addition, if the NAV at the time a shareholder purchases shares of a Fund reflects undistributed net investment income, recognized net capital gain, or unrealized appreciation in the value of the assets of the Fund, distributions of such amounts will be taxable to the shareholder in the manner described above, although such distributions economically constitute a return of capital to the shareholder.

Ordinarily, shareholders are required to take distributions by a Fund into account in the year in which the distributions are made. However, dividends declared in October, November or December of any year and payable to shareholders of record on a specified date in such a month will be deemed to have been received by the shareholders (and paid by a Fund) on December 31 of such calendar year if such dividends are actually paid in January of the following year. In addition, certain other distributions made after the close of the Fund’s taxable year may be “spilled back” and treated as paid by the Fund (except for the purposes of the 4% nondeductible excise tax) during such taxable year. In such case, a shareholder will be treated as having received such dividends in the taxable year in which the distributions were actually made. Shareholders will be advised annually as to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of distributions made (or deemed made) during the year.

Certain U.S. shareholders, including individuals and estates and trusts, are subject to an additional 3.8% Medicare tax on all or a portion of their “net investment income,” which should include dividends from a Fund and net gains from the disposition of shares of a Fund. U.S. shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisers regarding the implications of the additional Medicare tax resulting from an investment in a Fund.

Each Fund will be required in certain cases to withhold and remit to the U.S. Treasury backup withholding taxes at the applicable rate on distributions paid to any shareholder (1) who has failed to provide a correct taxpayer identification number, (2) who is subject to backup withholding for failure to report the receipt of interest or dividend income properly, or (3) who has failed to certify to the Fund that it is not subject to backup withholding or is an “exempt recipient” (such as a corporation). Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against a shareholder’s U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is furnished to the IRS.

73

Sale or Redemption of Shares

A shareholder will generally recognize gain or loss on the sale or redemption of shares of a Fund (including an exchange of shares of a Fund for shares of another Fund) in an amount equal to the difference between the proceeds of the sale or redemption and the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in the shares. All or a portion of any loss may be disallowed if the shareholder purchases other shares of the same Fund within 30 days before or after the sale or redemption. In such a case, the basis of the shares acquired will be increased to reflect the disallowed loss. In general, any gain or loss arising from (or treated as arising from) the sale or redemption of shares of a Fund will be considered capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the shares were held for longer than one year. However, any capital loss arising from the sale or redemption of shares held for six months or less will be disallowed to the extent of the amount of exempt-interest dividends received on such shares (unless the loss is with respect to shares of a Fund for which the holding period began after December 22, 2010, and the Fund declares exempt-interest dividends on a daily basis in an amount equal to at least 90% of its net tax-exempt interest and distributes such dividends at least monthly) and (to the extent not disallowed) will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of the amount of capital gain dividends received on such shares. For these purposes, the special holding period rules of Code Section 246(c) (discussed above in connection with qualified dividends, qualified REIT dividends and the dividends-received deduction) generally will apply in determining the holding period of shares. Capital losses in any year are deductible only to the extent of capital gains plus, in the case of a noncorporate taxpayer, $3,000 of ordinary income.

If a shareholder (1) incurs a sales load in acquiring shares of a Fund, (2) disposes of such shares less than 91 days after they are acquired and (3) subsequently acquires, during the period beginning on the date of the disposition referred to in clause (2) and ending on January 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year that includes the date of such disposition, shares of the Fund or another Fund at a reduced sales load pursuant to a right acquired in connection with the acquisition of the shares disposed of, then the sales load on the shares disposed of (to the extent of the reduction in the sales load on the shares subsequently acquired) shall not be taken into account in determining gain or loss on such shares but shall be treated as incurred on the acquisition of the subsequently acquired shares.

Tax Shelter and Other Reporting Requirements

If a shareholder realizes a loss on the disposition of shares of a Fund of at least $2 million in any single taxable year or at least $4 million in any combination of taxable years for an individual shareholder, or at least $10 million in any single taxable year or at least $20 million in any combination of taxable years for a corporate shareholder, the shareholder must file with the IRS a disclosure statement on Form 8886. Shareholders should consult their tax advisers to determine the applicability of this requirement in light of their individual circumstances.

Foreign Taxation

Income received by a Fund from sources within foreign countries may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by such countries. Tax treaties and conventions between certain countries and the United States may reduce or eliminate such taxes. If more than 50% of the value of a Fund’s total assets at the close of its taxable year consists of securities of foreign corporations, the Fund may be able to elect to “pass through” to the Fund’s shareholders the amount of eligible foreign income and similar taxes paid by the Fund. If this election is made, a shareholder generally subject to tax will be required to include in gross income (in addition to taxable dividends actually received) his or her pro rata share of the foreign taxes paid by the Fund, and may be entitled either to deduct (as an itemized deduction) his or her pro rata share of foreign taxes in computing his or her taxable income or to use it as a foreign tax credit against his or her U.S. federal income tax liability, subject to certain limitations. In particular, a shareholder must hold his or her shares (without protection from risk of loss) on the ex-dividend date and for at least 15 more days during the 30-day period surrounding the ex-dividend date to be eligible to claim a foreign tax credit with respect to a gain dividend. No deduction for foreign taxes may be claimed by a non-corporate shareholder who does not itemize deductions. Each shareholder will be notified days after the close of the Fund’s taxable year whether the foreign taxes paid by the Fund will “pass through” for that year.

Generally, a credit for foreign taxes is subject to the limitation that it may not exceed the shareholder’s U.S. tax attributable to his or her total foreign source taxable income. For this purpose, if the pass-through election is made, the source of the Fund’s income will flow through to shareholders of the Fund. With respect to a Fund, gains from the sale of securities will be treated as derived from U.S. sources and certain currency fluctuation gains, including fluctuation gains from foreign currency-denominated debt securities, receivables and payables will be treated as ordinary income derived from U.S. sources. The limitation on the foreign tax credit is applied separately to foreign source passive income, and to certain other types of income. A shareholder may be unable to claim a credit for the full amount of his or her proportionate share of the foreign taxes paid by the Fund.

Foreign Shareholders

Taxation of a shareholder who, as to the United States, is a nonresident alien individual or foreign corporation (“foreign shareholder”), depends on whether the income from a Fund is “effectively connected” with a U.S. trade or business carried on by such shareholder.

74

If the income from a Fund is not effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business carried on by a foreign shareholder, subject to the discussion below with respect to “interest-related dividends” and “short-term capital gain dividends,” ordinary income dividends (including dividends that would otherwise be treated as qualified dividends to an applicable non-foreign shareholder) paid to such foreign shareholder would be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax (or lower applicable treaty rate) upon the gross amount of the dividend. Such foreign shareholder would generally be exempt from U.S. federal income tax, including withholding tax, on gains realized on the sale of shares of a Fund or capital gain dividends unless the foreign shareholder is a nonresident alien individual present in the United States for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more during the calendar year.

U.S. withholding tax generally does not apply to amounts properly designated by a Fund as an “interest-related dividend” or a “short-term capital gain dividend.” The aggregate amount treated as an interest-related dividend for a year is limited to the Fund’s qualified net interest income for the year, which is the excess of the sum of the Fund’s qualified interest income (generally, its U.S.-source interest income) over the deductions properly allocable to such income. The aggregate amount treated as a “short-term capital gain dividend” is limited to the excess of the Fund’s net short-term capital gain over its net long-term capital loss. In order to qualify for this exemption from withholding, a foreign investor needs to comply with applicable certification requirements relating to its non-U.S. status (including, in general, furnishing an IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or substitute Form). In the case of shares held through an intermediary, the intermediary may withhold even if the Fund reported the payment as qualified net interest income or qualified short-term capital gain. Foreign investors should contact their intermediaries with respect to the application of these rules to their accounts.

If the income from a Fund is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business carried on by a foreign shareholder, then any dividends, and any gains realized upon the sale or redemption of shares of the Fund will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the rates applicable to U.S. citizens or domestic corporations, and, if the foreign shareholder is a corporation, the shareholder may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” imposed at the rate of 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate).

In the case of foreign noncorporate shareholders, a Fund may be required to withhold backup withholding taxes at the applicable rate on distributions that are otherwise exempt from withholding tax (or taxable at a reduced treaty rate) unless such shareholders furnish the Fund with proper notification of their foreign status.

Under the “Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act” and existing guidance thereunder, commonly known as “FATCA,” a 30% withholding tax on dividends paid by the Fund generally applies if paid to a foreign entity unless: (i) if the foreign entity is a “foreign financial institution” as defined under FATCA, the foreign entity undertakes certain due diligence, reporting, withholding, and certification obligations, (ii) if the foreign entity is not a “foreign financial institution,” it identifies certain of its U.S. investors or (iii) the foreign entity is otherwise excepted under FATCA. If withholding is required under FATCA on a payment related to any Fund distribution, investors that otherwise would not be subject to withholding (or that otherwise would be entitled to a reduced rate of withholding) on such payment generally will be required to seek a refund or credit from the IRS to obtain the benefit of such exemption or reduction. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country, or future Treasury regulations or other guidance, may modify the foregoing requirements. The Funds will not pay any additional amounts in respect of amounts withheld under FATCA. Each investor should consult its tax adviser regarding the effect of FATCA based on its individual circumstances.

The tax consequences to a foreign shareholder entitled to claim the benefits of an applicable tax treaty might be different from those described herein. Foreign shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisers with respect to the particular tax consequences to them of an investment in a Fund, including the applicability of foreign taxes.

Cost Basis Reporting

A Fund is generally required by law to report to shareholders and the IRS on Form 1099-B “cost basis” information for shares of the Fund acquired on or after January 1, 2012, and sold or redeemed after that date. Upon a disposition of such shares, a Fund will be required to report the adjusted cost basis, the gross proceeds from the disposition, and the character of realized gains or losses attributable to such shares. These requirements do not apply to investments through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement plan. The “cost basis” of a share is generally its purchase price adjusted for dividend reinvestments, returns of capital, and other corporate actions. “Cost basis” is used to determine whether a sale or other disposition of the shares results in a gain or loss.

The Fund will permit shareholders to elect among several IRS-accepted cost basis methods to determine the cost basis in their shares. If a shareholder does not affirmatively elect a cost basis method, then the Fund’s default cost basis calculation method, which is currently the average cost method, will be applied to their account. Non-covered shares (those shares purchased before January 1, 2012 and those shares that do not have complete cost basis information, regardless of purchase date) will be used first for any redemptions made after January 1, 2012, regardless of your cost basis method of election unless you have chosen the specific identification method and have designated covered shares (those purchased after January 1, 2012) at the time of your redemption. The cost basis method elected or applied may not be changed after the settlement date of a sale of shares.

75

If a shareholder holds shares through a broker, the shareholder should contact that broker with respect to the reporting of cost basis information.

Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisers regarding specific questions with respect to the application of the new cost basis reporting rules and, in particular, which cost basis calculation method to elect.

Effect of Future Legislation, Foreign, State and Local Tax Considerations

The foregoing general discussion of U.S. federal income and excise tax consequences is based on the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder as in effect on the date of this SAI. Future legislative or administrative changes or court decisions may significantly change the conclusions expressed herein and any such changes or decisions may have a retroactive effect.

Rules of foreign, state and local taxation of ordinary income dividends, qualified dividends, exempt-interest dividends and capital gain dividends from regulated investment companies may differ from the rules for U.S. federal income taxation described above. Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisers as to the consequences of these and other foreign, state and local tax rules affecting an investment in a Fund.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Description of Shares

The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust. The Trust’s Second Amended and Restated Trust Instrument, dated as of February 26, 2019 (“Trust Instrument”), authorizes the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of shares, which are units of beneficial interest, with a par value of $0.001 per share. The Trust Instrument authorizes the Trustees to divide or redivide any unissued shares of the Trust into one or more additional series by setting or changing in any one or more aspects their respective preferences, conversion or other rights, voting power, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications and terms and conditions of redemption. The Trust is currently authorized to offer Class A, C, I, R, R6, Y and Member Class shares of the Funds. A Fund may not offer all such share classes. Shares have no subscription or preemptive rights and only such conversion or exchange rights as the Trustees may grant in their discretion. When issued for payment as described in the Prospectuses and this SAI, the Trust’s shares will be fully paid and non-assessable. In the event of a liquidation or dissolution of the Trust, shares of each Fund are entitled to receive the assets available for distribution belonging to the Fund, and a proportionate distribution, based upon the relative asset values of the respective series, of any general assets not belonging to any particular series that are available for distribution.

Each share class of a Fund represents an interest in the same assets of the Fund, has the same rights and is identical in all material respects except that (i) each class of shares may be subject to different (or no) sales loads; (ii) each class of shares may bear different (or no) distribution fees; (iii) each class of shares may have different shareholder features, such as minimum investment amounts; (iv) certain other class-specific expenses will be borne solely by the class to which such expenses are attributable, including transfer agent fees attributable to a specific class of shares, printing and postage expenses related to preparing and distributing materials to current shareholders of a specific class, registration fees paid by a specific class of shares, the expenses of administrative personnel and services required to support the shareholders of a specific class, litigation or other legal expenses relating to a class of shares, Trustees’ fees or expenses paid as a result of issues relating to a specific class of shares and accounting fees and expenses relating to a specific class of shares; and (v) each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to matters relating to its own distribution arrangements. The Board may classify and reclassify the shares of the Fund into additional classes of shares at a future date.

Fund shareholders are entitled to one vote per share (with proportional voting for fractional shares) on such matters as shareholders are entitled to vote (“share-based voting”). Alternatively (except where the 1940 Act requires share-based voting), the Trustees in their discretion may determine that shareholders are entitled to one vote per dollar of NAV (with proportional voting for fractional dollar amounts). Shareholders of all series and classes will vote together as a single class on all matters except (1) when required by the 1940 Act or when the Trustees have determined that a matter affects one or more series or classes materially differently, shares shall be voted by individual series or class; and (2) when the Trustees have determined that the matter affects only the interests of a particular series or class, then only shareholders of such series or class shall be entitled to vote thereon.

There will normally be no meetings of shareholders for the purpose of electing Trustees unless and until such time as less than a majority of the Trustees have been elected by the shareholders, at which time the Trustees then in office will call a shareholders’ meeting for the election of Trustees. A meeting shall be held for such purpose upon the written request of the holders of not less than 10% of the outstanding shares. Upon written request by ten or more shareholders of record meeting the qualifications of Section 16(c) of the 1940 Act, (i.e., persons who have been shareholders of record for at least six months, and who hold shares having an NAV of at least $25,000 or constituting 1% of the outstanding shares, whichever is less) stating that such shareholders wish to communicate with the other shareholders for the purpose of obtaining the signatures necessary to demand a meeting to consider removal of a Trustee,

76

the Trust will provide a list of shareholders or disseminate appropriate materials (at the expense of the requesting shareholders). Except as set forth above, the Trustees shall continue to hold office and may appoint their successors.

The Trust Instrument permits the Trustees to take certain actions without obtaining shareholder approval, if the Trustees determine that doing so would be in the best interests of shareholders. These actions include: (a) reorganizing a Fund with another investment company or another series of the Trust; (b) liquidating a Fund; (c) restructuring a Fund into a “master/feeder” structure, in which a Fund (the “feeder”) would invest all of its assets in a separate “master” fund; and (d) amending the Trust Instrument, unless shareholder consent is required by law.

Rule 18f-2 under the 1940 Act provides that any matter required to be submitted to the holders of the outstanding voting securities of an investment company such as the Trust shall not be deemed to have been effectively acted upon unless approved by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares, as defined under the 1940 Act, of the series affected by the matter. For purposes of determining whether the approval of a majority of the outstanding shares of a Fund will be required in connection with a matter, a Fund will be deemed to be affected by a matter unless it is clear that the interests of the Fund and any other series in the matter are identical, or that the matter does not affect any interest of other series of the Trust. Under Rule 18f-2, the approval of an investment advisory agreement or any change in investment policy would be effectively acted upon with respect to a Fund only if approved by a majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund. However, Rule 18f-2 also provides that the ratification of independent accountants, the approval of principal underwriting contracts, and the election of Trustees may be effectively acted upon by shareholders of the Trust voting without regard to series.

Shareholder and Trustee Liability

The Delaware Statutory Trust Act provides that a shareholder of a Delaware statutory trust shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to shareholders of Delaware corporations, and the Trust Instrument provides that shareholders of the Trust shall not be liable for the obligations of the Trust. The Trust Instrument also provides for indemnification out of the trust property of any shareholder held personally liable solely by reason of his or her being or having been a shareholder. The Trust Instrument also provides that the Trust shall, upon request, assume the defense of any claim made against any shareholder for any act or obligation of the Trust, and shall satisfy any judgment thereon. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is considered to be extremely remote.

The Trust Instrument states further that no Trustee, officer, or agent of the Trust shall be personally liable in connection with the administration or preservation of the assets of the Funds or the conduct of the Trust’s business; nor shall any Trustee, officer, or agent be personally liable to any person for any action or failure to act except for his own bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of his duties. The Trust Instrument also provides that all persons having any claim against the Trustees or the Trust shall look solely to the assets of the Trust for payment.

Derivative Actions Brought by Shareholders

Pursuant to the Trust Instrument, and in addition to the requirements of Delaware law, a shareholder may bring a derivative action on behalf of the Trust only if the following conditions are met: (a) The shareholder or shareholders must make a pre-suit demand upon the Trustees to bring the subject action unless an effort to cause the Trustees to bring such an action is not likely to succeed. For this purpose, a demand on the Trustees shall only be deemed not likely to succeed and therefore excused if a majority of the Board of Trustees, or a majority of any committee established to consider the merits of such action, is composed of Trustees who are not “independent trustees” (as such term is defined in the Delaware Act); (b) Unless a demand is not required under paragraph (a) above, shareholders eligible to bring such derivative action under the Delaware Act who collectively hold at least 10% of the total combined net asset value of the outstanding shares of the Trust, or 10% of the total combined net asset value of the outstanding shares of the Fund or Class to which such action relates if it does not relate to all Funds and Classes, shall join in the request for the Trustees to commence such action; and (c) Unless a demand is not required under paragraph (a) above, the Trustees must be afforded a reasonable amount of time to consider such shareholder request and to investigate the basis of such claim. The Trustees shall be entitled to retain counsel or other advisors in considering the merits of the request and shall require an undertaking by the shareholders making such request to reimburse the Trust for the expense of any such advisors in the event that the Trustees determine not to bring such action.

The Board of Trustees may designate a committee of one Trustee to consider a shareholder demand if necessary to create a committee with a majority of Trustees who do not have a personal financial interest in the transaction at issue. In addition to all suits, claims or other actions (collectively, “claims”) that under applicable law must be brought as derivative claims, each shareholder of the Trust or any Fund or Class agrees that any claim that affects all shareholders of a Fund or Class equally, that is, proportionately based on their number of shares in such Fund or Class, must be brought as a derivative claim subject to these provisions irrespective of whether such claim involves a violation of the shareholders’ rights under the Trust Instrument or any other alleged violation of contractual or individual rights that might otherwise give rise to a direct claim. The provision requiring at least 10% of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust, applicable Fund or Class to join in the request to bring the derivative action and the provision requiring an

77

undertaking by the requesting shareholders to reimburse the Trust for the expense of any advisors retained by the Board of Trustees in the event that the Trustees determine not to bring such action, may not apply to claims brought under federal securities laws.

Disclosure of Portfolio Holdings

The Board has adopted policies with respect to the disclosure of each Fund’s portfolio holdings by the Fund, the Adviser, or their affiliates. These policies provide that each Fund’s portfolio holdings information generally may not be disclosed to any party prior to the information becoming public. Certain limited exceptions are described below. These policies apply to disclosures to all categories of persons, including individual investors, institutional investors, intermediaries who sell shares of a Fund, third parties providing services to the Funds (accounting agent, print vendors, etc.), rating and ranking organizations (Lipper, Morningstar, etc.) and affiliated persons of the Funds.

The Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer is responsible for monitoring each Fund’s compliance with these policies and for providing regular reports (at least annually) to the Board regarding the adequacy and effectiveness of the policy and recommend changes, if necessary.

Public Disclosure

The Funds disclose their complete portfolio holdings in its annual and semiannual reports to shareholders, which are sent to shareholders no later than 60 days after the relevant fiscal period (June 30th and December 31st, respectively) and are available on the Funds' website, VictoryFunds.com. The Funds also file their complete portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third fiscal quarters on Form N-PORT. You can find these filings on the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov, and the Funds' portfolio holdings are available at VictoryFunds.com in accordance with Rule 30e-3 under the 1940 Act.

In addition, the Funds disclose their complete portfolio holdings as of the quarter-end on the Funds’ website no earlier than the 15th day following the end of the calendar quarter. The Funds may also publish other information on the Funds’ website relating to its portfolio holdings (e.g., top ten holdings) on a monthly basis no earlier than the 10th day following the end of the month.

Non-Public Disclosures

The Adviser may authorize the disclosure of non-public portfolio holdings information under certain limited circumstances. The Funds’ policies provide that non-public disclosures of a Fund’s portfolio holdings may only be made if: (i) the Fund has a “legitimate business purpose” (as determined by the President of the Trust) for making such disclosure; and (ii) the party receiving the non-public information enters into a confidentiality agreement, which includes a duty not to trade on the non-public information and describes any compensation to be paid to the Fund or any “affiliated person” of the Adviser or Distributor, including any arrangement to maintain assets in the Fund or in other investment companies or accounts managed by the Adviser or by any “affiliated person” of the Adviser or Distributor.

The Adviser will consider any actual or potential conflicts of interest between the Adviser and a Fund’s shareholders and will act in the best interest of the Fund’s shareholders with respect to any such disclosure of portfolio holdings information. If a potential conflict can be resolved in a manner that does not present detrimental effects to Fund shareholders, the Adviser may authorize release of portfolio holdings information. Conversely, if the potential conflict cannot be resolved in a manner that does not present detrimental effects to Fund shareholders, the Adviser will not authorize such release.

Ongoing Arrangements to Disclose Portfolio Holdings

As previously authorized by the Board and/or the Trust’s executive officers, a Fund periodically discloses non-public portfolio holdings on a confidential basis to various service providers that require such information in order to assist the Fund in its day-to-day operations, as well as public information to certain ratings organizations. These entities are described in the following table. The table also includes information as to the timing of these entities receiving the portfolio holdings information from a Fund. In none of these arrangements does a Fund or any “affiliated person” of the Adviser or Distributor receive any compensation, including any arrangement to maintain assets in the Fund or in other investment companies or accounts managed by the Adviser or by any “affiliated person” of the Adviser or Distributor.

These service providers are required to keep all non-public information confidential and are prohibited from trading based on the information or otherwise using the information, except as necessary in providing services to a Fund.

There is no guarantee that a Fund’s policies on use and dissemination of holdings information will protect the Fund from the potential misuse of holdings by individuals or firms in possession of such information.

Principal Holders of Fund Shares

As of September 30, 2021, the following shareholders owned 5% or more of a particular share class of the indicated Funds. Each shareholder that beneficially owns more than 25% of the voting securities of a Fund may be deemed a control person of that class of the Fund’s outstanding shares and, thereby, may influence the outcome of matters on which shareholders are entitled to vote. Since the economic benefit of investing in a Fund is passed through to the underlying investors of the record owners of 25% or more of the Fund shares, these record owners are not considered the beneficial owners of the Fund’s shares or control persons of the Fund.

The names and addresses of the record holders and the percentage of the outstanding shares held by such holders are set forth in the following table. Any control persons known to the Funds are identified below.

Miscellaneous

As used in the Prospectuses and in this SAI, “assets belonging to a fund” (or “assets belonging to the Fund”) means the consideration received by the Trust upon the issuance or sale of shares of a Fund, together with all income, earnings, profits and proceeds derived from the investment thereof, including any proceeds from the sale, exchange, or liquidation of such investments and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds and any general assets of the Trust, which general liabilities and expenses are not readily identified as belonging to a particular series that are allocated to that series by the Trustees. The Trustees may allocate such general assets in any manner they deem fair and equitable. It is anticipated that the factor that will be used by the Trustees in making allocations of general assets to a particular series will be the relative NAV of each respective series at the time of allocation. Assets belonging to a particular series are charged with the direct liabilities and expenses in respect of that series and with a share of the general liabilities and expenses of each of the series not readily identified as belonging to a particular series, which are allocated to each series in accordance with its proportionate share of the NAVs of the Trust at the time of allocation. The timing of allocations of general assets and general liabilities and expenses of the Trust to a particular series will be determined by the Trustees and will be in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Determinations by the Trustees as to the timing of the allocation of general liabilities and expenses and as to the timing and allocable portion of any general assets with respect to a particular series are conclusive.

As used in the Prospectuses and in this SAI, a “vote of a majority of the outstanding shares” of the Fund means the affirmative vote of the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the shares of the Fund present at a meeting at which the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund are represented in person or by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

APPENDIX A

Description of Security Ratings

Set forth below are descriptions of the relevant ratings of each of the NRSROs. These NRSROs and the descriptions of the ratings are as of the date of this SAI and may subsequently change.

Ratings represent a rating agency’s opinion regarding the quality of the security and are not a guarantee of quality. In addition, rating agencies may fail to make timely changes to credit ratings in response to subsequent events and a rating may become stale in that it fails to reflect changes in an issuer’s financial condition.

Moody’s

Global Long-Term Ratings. Ratings assigned on Moody’s global long-term rating scales are forward-looking opinions of the relative credit risk of financial obligations issued by non-financial corporates, financial institutions, structured finance vehicles, project finance vehicles, and public sector entities. Long-term ratings are assigned to issuers or obligations with an original maturity of one year or more and reflect both on the likelihood of a default on contractually promised payments and the expected financial loss suffered in the event of default. The following describes the global long- term ratings by Moody’s.

Aaa — Obligations rated Aaa are judged to be of the highest quality, subject to the lowest level of credit risk.

Aa — Obligations rated Aa are judged to be of high quality and are subject to very low credit risk.

A — Obligations rated A are judged to be upper-medium grade and are subject to low credit risk.

Baa — Obligations rated Baa are judged to be medium-grade and subject to moderate credit risk and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics.

Ba — Obligations rated Ba are judged to be speculative and are subject to substantial credit risk.

B — Obligations rated B are considered speculative and are subject to high credit risk.

Caa — Obligations rated Caa are judged to be speculative of poor standing and are subject to very high credit risk.

Ca — Obligations rated Ca are highly speculative and are likely in, or very near, default, with some prospect of recovery of principal and interest.

C — Obligations rated C are the lowest rated and are typically in default, with little prospect for recovery of principal or interest.

Medium-Term Note Program Ratings. Moody’s assigns provisional ratings to medium-term note (MTN) programs and definitive ratings to the individual debt securities issued from them (referred to as drawdowns or notes). MTN program ratings are intended to reflect the ratings likely to be assigned to drawdowns issued from the program with the specified priority of claim (e.g. senior or subordinated). To capture the contingent nature of a program rating, Moody’s assigns provisional ratings to MTN programs. A provisional rating is denoted by a (P) in front of the rating.

The rating assigned to a drawdown from a rated MTN or bank/deposit note program is definitive in nature, and may differ from the program rating if the drawdown is exposed to additional credit risks besides the issuer’s default, such as links to the defaults of other issuers, or has other structural features that warrant a different rating. In some circumstances, no rating may be assigned to a drawdown.

Moody’s encourages market participants to contact Moody’s Ratings Desks or visit www.moodys.com directly if they have questions regarding ratings for specific notes issued under a medium-term note program. Unrated notes issued under an MTN program may be assigned an NR (not rated) symbol.

Note: Moody’s appends numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 to each generic rating classification from Aa through Caa. The modifier 1 indicates that the obligation ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid- range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates a ranking in the lower end of that generic rating category. Additionally, a “(hyb)” indicator is appended to all ratings of hybrid securities issued by banks, insurers, finance companies, and securities firms.

Global Short-Term Ratings. Ratings assigned on Moody’s global short-term rating scales are forward-looking opinions of the relative credit risk of financial obligations issued by non-financial corporates, financial institutions, structured finance vehicles, project finance vehicles, and public sector entities. Short-term ratings are assigned to obligations with an original maturity of thirteen months or less and reflect the likelihood of a default on contractually promised payments. The following describes Moody’s global short-term ratings.

Moody’s employs the following designations to indicate the relative repayment ability of rated issuers:

96

P-1. — Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-1 have a superior ability to repay short-term debt obligations.

P-2. — Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-2 have a strong ability to repay short-term debt obligations.

P-3. — Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-3 have an acceptable ability to repay short-term obligations.

NP. — Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Not Prime do not fall within any of the Prime rating categories.

Speculative Grade Liquidity Ratings. Moody’s Speculative Grade Liquidity Ratings are opinions of an issuer’s relative ability to generate cash from internal resources and the availability of external sources of committed financing, in relation to its cash obligations over the coming 12 months. Speculative Grade Liquidity Ratings will consider the likelihood that committed sources of financing will remain available. Other forms of liquidity support will be evaluated and consideration will be given to the likelihood that these sources will be available during the coming 12 months. Speculative Grade Liquidity Ratings are assigned to speculative grade issuers that are by definition Not Prime issuers.

SGL-1 — Issuers rated SGL-1 possess very good liquidity. They are most likely to have the capacity to meet their obligations over the coming 12 months through internal resources without relying on external sources of committed financing.

SGL-2 — Issuers rated SGL-2 possess good liquidity. They are likely to meet their obligations over the coming 12 months through internal resources but may rely on external sources of committed financing. The issuer’s ability to access committed sources of financing is highly likely based on Moody’s evaluation of near-term covenant compliance.

SGL-3 — Issuers rated SGL-3 possess adequate liquidity. They are expected to rely on external sources of committed financing. Based on its evaluation of near-term covenant compliance, Moody’s believes there is only a modest cushion, and the issuer may require covenant relief in order to maintain orderly access to funding lines.

SGL-4 — Issuers rated SGL-4 possess weak liquidity. They rely on external sources of financing and the availability of that financing is, in Moody’s opinion, highly uncertain.

Short-Term Obligation Ratings. While the global short-term ‘prime’ rating scale is applied to U.S. municipal tax-exempt commercial paper, these programs are typically backed by external letters of credit or liquidity facilities and their short-term prime ratings usually map to the long-term rating of the enhancing bank or financial institution and not to the municipality’s rating. Other short-term municipal obligations, which generally have different funding sources for repayment, are rated using two additional short-term rating scales (i.e., the MIG and VMIG scales discussed below).

The Municipal Investment Grade (MIG) scale is used to rate U.S. municipal bond anticipation notes of up to three years maturity. Municipal notes rated on the MIG scale may be secured by either pledged revenues or proceeds of a take- out financing received prior to note maturity. MIG ratings expire at the maturity of the obligation, and the issuer’s long- term rating is only one consideration in assigning the MIG rating. MIG ratings are divided into three levels—MIG 1 through MIG 3—while speculative grade short-term obligations are designated SG.

MIG-1. This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by established cash flows, highly reliable liquidity support, or demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.

MIG-2. This designation denotes strong credit quality. Margins of protection are ample, although not as large as in the preceding group.

MIG-3. This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Liquidity and cash-flow protection may be narrow, and market access for refinancing is likely to be less well-established.

SG. This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Debt instruments in this category may lack sufficient margins of protection.

Demand Obligation Ratings. In the case of variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs), a two-component rating is assigned: a long or short-term debt rating and a demand obligation rating. The first element represents Moody’s evaluation of risk associated with scheduled principal and interest payments. The second element represents Moody’s evaluation of risk associated with the ability to receive purchase price upon demand (“demand feature”). The second element uses a rating from a variation of the MIG scale called the Variable Municipal Investment Grade (VMIG) scale. The rating transitions on the VMIG scale, as shown in the diagram below, differ from those on the Prime scale to reflect the risk that external liquidity support generally will terminate if the issuer’s long-term rating drops below investment grade.

VMIG-1. This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by the superior short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand.

97

VMIG-2. This designation denotes strong credit quality. Good protection is afforded by the strong short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand.

VMIG-3. This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Adequate protection is afforded by the satisfactory short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand.

SG. This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Demand features rated in this category may be supported by a liquidity provider that does not have an investment grade short-term rating or may lack the structural and/or legal protections necessary to ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand.

Standard & Poor’s

A Standard & Poor’s issue credit rating is a forward-looking opinion about the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a specific financial obligation, a specific class of financial obligations, or a specific financial program (including ratings on medium-term note programs and commercial paper programs). It takes into consideration the creditworthiness of guarantors, insurers, or other forms of credit enhancement on the obligation and takes into account the currency in which the obligation is denominated. The opinion reflects Standard & Poor’s view of the obligor’s capacity and willingness to meet its financial commitments as they come due, and may assess terms, such as collateral security and subordination, which could affect ultimate payment in the event of default.

Issue credit ratings can be either long-term or short-term. Short-term ratings are generally assigned to those obligations considered short-term in the relevant market. In the U.S., for example, that means obligations with an original maturity of no more than 365 days—including commercial paper. Short-term ratings are also used to indicate the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to put features on long-term obligations. Medium-term notes are assigned long- term ratings.

Long-Term Issue Credit Ratings. Issue credit ratings are based, in varying degrees, on Standard & Poor’s analysis of the following considerations:

•  Likelihood of payment—capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on an obligation in accordance with the terms of the obligation;

• Nature of and provisions of the obligation, and the promise imputed by Standard & Poor’s;

• Protection afforded by, and relative position of, the obligation in the event of bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors’ rights.

Issue ratings are an assessment of default risk, but may incorporate an assessment of relative seniority or ultimate recovery in the event of default. Junior obligations are typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority in bankruptcy, as noted above. (Such differentiation may apply when an entity has both senior and subordinated obligations, secured and unsecured obligations, or operating company and holding company obligations.)

AAA — An obligation rated ‘AAA’ has the highest rating assigned by Standard & Poor’s. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is extremely strong.

AA — An obligation rated ‘AA’ differs from the highest-rated obligations only to a small degree. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is very strong.

A — An obligation rated ‘A’ is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is still strong.

BBB — An obligation rated ‘BBB’ exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

BB, B, CCC, CC, and C — Obligations rated ‘BB’, ‘B’, ‘CCC’, ‘CC’, and ‘C’ are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics. ‘BB’ indicates the least degree of speculation and ‘C’ the highest. While such obligations will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large uncertainties or major exposures to adverse conditions.

BB — An obligation rated ‘BB’ is less vulnerable to nonpayment than other speculative issues. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions which could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

98

B — An obligation rated ‘B’ is more vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations rated ‘BB’, but the obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. Adverse business, financial, or economic conditions will likely impair the obligor’s capacity or willingness to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

CCC — An obligation rated ‘CCC’ is currently vulnerable to nonpayment, and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation. In the event of adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, the obligor is not likely to have the capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

CC — An obligation rated ‘CC’ is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment. The ‘CC’ rating is used when a default has not yet occurred, but Standard & Poor’s expects default to be a virtual certainty, regardless of the anticipated time to default.

C — An obligation rated ‘C’ is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment, and the obligation is expected to have lower relative seniority or lower ultimate recovery compared to obligations that are rated higher.

D — An obligation rated ‘D’ is in default or in breach of an imputed promise. For non-hybrid capital instruments, the ‘D’ rating category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due, unless Standard & Poor’s believes that such payments will be made within five business days in the absence of a stated grace period or within the earlier of the stated grace period or 30 calendar days. The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of similar action and where default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay provisions. An obligation’s rating is lowered to ‘D’ if it is subject to a distressed exchange offer.

NR — This indicates that no rating has been requested, or that there is insufficient information on which to base a rating, or that Standard & Poor’s does not rate a particular obligation as a matter of policy.

Plus (+) or minus (-) — The ratings from ‘AA’ to ‘CCC’ may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories.

Short-Term Issue Credit Ratings. The following describes Standard & Poor’s short-term issue credit ratings.

A-1 — A short-term obligation rated ‘A-1’ is rated in the highest category by Standard & Poor’s. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is strong. Within this category, certain obligations are designated with a plus sign (+). This indicates that the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on these obligations is extremely strong.

A-2 — A short-term obligation rated ‘A-2’ is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher rating categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation is satisfactory.

A-3 — A short-term obligation rated ‘A-3’ exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

B — A short-term obligation rated ‘B’ is regarded as vulnerable and has significant speculative characteristics. The obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitments; however, it faces major ongoing uncertainties which could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitments.

C — A short-term obligation rated ‘C’ is currently vulnerable to nonpayment and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

D — A short-term obligation rated ‘D’ is in default or in breach of an imputed promise. For non-hybrid capital instruments, the ‘D’ rating category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due, unless Standard & Poor’s believes that such payments will be made within any stated grace period. However, any stated grace period longer than five business days will be treated as five business days. The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of a similar action and where default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay provisions. An obligation’s rating is lowered to ‘D’ if it is subject to a distressed exchange offer.

Municipal Short-Term Note Ratings. The following describes Standard & Poor’s Municipal Short-Term Note Ratings.

A Standard & Poor’s U.S. municipal note rating reflects Standard & Poor’s opinion about the liquidity factors and market access risks unique to the notes. Notes due in three years or less will likely receive a note rating. Notes with an original maturity of more than three years will most likely receive a long-term debt rating. In determining which type of rating, if any, to assign, Standard & Poor’s analysis will review the following considerations:

•  Amortization schedule — the larger the final maturity relative to other maturities, the more likely it will be treated as a note; and

99

• Source of payment — the more dependent the issue is on the market for its refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note.

SP-1. Strong capacity to pay principal and interest. An issue determined to possess a very strong capacity to pay debt service is given a plus (+) designation.

SP-2. Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest, with some vulnerability to adverse financial and economic changes over the term of the notes.

SP-3. Speculative capacity to pay principal and interest.

Active Qualifiers

L — Ratings qualified with ‘L’ apply only to amounts invested up to federal deposit insurance limits.

p — This suffix is used for issues in which the credit factors, the terms, or both, that determine the likelihood of receipt of payment of principal are different from the credit factors, terms or both that determine the likelihood of receipt of interest on the obligation. The ‘p’ suffix indicates that the rating addresses the principal portion of the obligation only and that the interest is not rated.

pi — Ratings with a ‘pi’ suffix are based on an analysis of an issuer’s published financial information, as well as additional information in the public domain. They do not, however, reflect in-depth meetings with an issuer’s management and therefore may be based on less comprehensive information than ratings without a ‘pi’ suffix. Ratings with a ‘pi’ suffix are reviewed annually based on a new year’s financial statements, but may be reviewed on an interim basis if a major event occurs that may affect the issuer’s credit quality.

prelim — Preliminary ratings, with the ‘prelim’ suffix, may be assigned to obligors or obligations, including financial programs, in the circumstances described below. Assignment of a final rating is conditional on the receipt by Standard & Poor’s of appropriate documentation. Standard & Poor’s reserves the right not to issue a final rating. Moreover, if a final rating is issued, it may differ from the preliminary rating.

•  Preliminary ratings may be assigned to obligations, most commonly structured and project finance issues, pending receipt of final documentation and legal opinions.

• Preliminary ratings are assigned to Rule 415 Shelf Registrations. As specific issues, with defined terms, are offered from the master registration, a final rating may be assigned to them in accordance with Standard & Poor’s policies.

• Preliminary ratings may be assigned to obligations that will likely be issued upon the obligor’s emergence from bankruptcy or similar reorganization, based on late-stage reorganization plans, documentation and discussions with the obligor. Preliminary ratings may also be assigned to the obligors. These ratings consider the anticipated general credit quality of the reorganized or post-bankruptcy issuer as well as attributes of the anticipated obligation(s).

• Preliminary ratings may be assigned to entities that are being formed or that are in the process of being independently established when, in Standard & Poor’s opinion, documentation is close to final. Preliminary ratings may also be assigned to the obligations of these entities.

• Preliminary ratings may be assigned when a previously unrated entity is undergoing a well-formulated restructuring, recapitalization, significant financing or other transformative event, generally at the point that investor or lender commitments are invited. The preliminary rating may be assigned to the entity and to its proposed obligation(s). These preliminary ratings consider the anticipated general credit quality of the obligor, as well as attributes of the anticipated obligation(s), assuming successful completion of the transformative event. Should the transformative event not occur, Standard & Poor’s would likely withdraw these preliminary ratings.

• A preliminary recovery rating may be assigned to an obligation that has a preliminary issue credit rating.

t — This symbol indicates termination structures that are designed to honor their contracts to full maturity or, should certain events occur, to terminate and cash settle all their contracts before their final maturity date.

100

Fitch

International Long-Term Ratings

Investment Grade

AAA — Highest credit quality. ‘AAA’ ratings denote the lowest expectation of default risk. They are assigned only in cases of exceptionally strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This capacity is highly unlikely to be adversely affected by foreseeable events.

AA — Very high credit quality. ‘AA’ ratings denote expectations of very low default risk. They indicate very strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This capacity is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events.

A — High credit quality. ‘A’ ratings denote expectations of low default risk. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings.

BBB — Good credit quality. ‘BBB’ ratings indicate that expectations of default risk are currently low. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate but adverse business or economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity.

Speculative Grade

BB — Speculative. ‘BB’ ratings indicate an elevated vulnerability to default risk, particularly in the event of adverse changes in business or economic conditions over time; however, business or financial flexibility exists which supports the servicing of financial commitments.

B — Highly speculative. ‘B’ ratings indicate that material default risk is present, but a limited margin of safety remains. Financial commitments are currently being met; however, capacity for continued payment is vulnerable to deterioration in the business and economic environment.

CCC, CC, C — High levels of credit risk. “CCC” ratings indicates that default is a real possibility. ‘CC’ ratings indicates that default of some kind appears probable. ‘C’ ratings indicate that default is imminent or inevitable, or the issuer is in standstill. Conditions that are indicative of a ‘C’ category rating for an issuer include:

a. the issuer has entered into a grace or cure period following non-payment of a material financial obligation;

b. the issuer has entered into a temporary negotiated waiver or standstill agreement following a payment default on a material financial obligation; or

c. Fitch Ratings otherwise believes a condition of ‘RD’ or ‘D’ to be imminent or inevitable, including through the formal announcement of a distressed debt exchange.

RD — Restricted default. ‘RD’ ratings indicate an issuer that in Fitch Ratings’ opinion has experienced an uncured payment default on a bond, loan or other material financial obligation but which has not entered into bankruptcy filings, administration, receivership, liquidation or other formal winding-up procedure, and which has not otherwise ceased operating. This would include:

a. the selective payment default on a specific class or currency of debt;

b. the uncured expiry of any applicable grace period, cure period or default forbearance period following a payment default on a bank loan, capital markets security or other material financial obligation;

c. the extension of multiple waivers or forbearance periods upon a payment default on one or more material financial obligations, either in series or in parallel; or

d. execution of a distressed debt exchange on one or more material financial obligations.

D — Default. ‘D’ ratings indicate an issuer that in Fitch Ratings’ opinion has entered into bankruptcy filings, administration, receivership, liquidation or other formal winding-up procedure, or which has otherwise ceased business.

Default ratings are not assigned prospectively to entities or their obligations; within this context, non-payment on an instrument that contains a deferral feature or grace period will generally not be considered a default until after the expiration of the deferral or grace period, unless a default is otherwise driven by bankruptcy or other similar circumstance, or by a distressed debt exchange.

“Imminent” default typically refers to the occasion where a payment default has been intimated by the issuer, and is all but inevitable. This may, for example, be where an issuer has missed a scheduled payment, but (as is typical) has a grace period during which it may

101

cure the payment default. Another alternative would be where an issuer has formally announced a distressed debt exchange, but the date of the exchange still lies several days or weeks in the immediate future.

In all cases, the assignment of a default rating reflects the agency’s opinion as to the most appropriate rating category consistent with the rest of its universe of ratings, and may differ from the definition of default under the terms of an issuer’s financial obligations or local commercial practice.

International Short-Term Ratings. The following describes Fitch’s two highest short-term ratings:

F1. Highest short-term credit quality. Indicates the strongest intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments; may have an added “+” to denote any exceptionally strong credit feature.

F2. Good short-term credit quality. Good intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments.

Notes to Long- and Short-term ratings:

The modifiers “+” or “-” may be appended to a rating to denote relative status within major rating categories. Such suffixes are not added to the ‘AAA’ Long-Term Issuer Default Ratings category, or to Long-Term Issuer Default Ratings categories below ‘B’.

NR — A designation of “Not Rated” or “NR” is used to denote securities not rated by Fitch where Fitch has rated some, but not all, securities comprising an issuance capital structure.

Withdrawn — The rating has been withdrawn and the issue or issuer is no longer rated by Fitch Ratings. Indicated in rating databases with the symbol ‘WD’.

Rating Watch — Rating Watches indicate that there is a heightened probability of a rating change and the likely direction of such a change. These are designated as “Positive”, indicating a potential upgrade, “Negative”, for a potential downgrade, or “Evolving”, if ratings may be raised, lowered or affirmed. However, ratings that are not on Rating Watch can be raised or lowered without being placed on Rating Watch first, if circumstances warrant such an action.

A Rating Watch is typically event-driven and, as such, it is generally resolved over a relatively short period. The event driving the Watch may be either anticipated or have already occurred, but in both cases, the exact rating implications remain undetermined. The Watch period is typically used to gather further information and/or subject the information to further analysis. Additionally, a Watch may be used where the rating implications are already clear, but where a triggering event (e.g. shareholder or regulatory approval) exists. The Watch will typically extend to cover the period until the triggering event is resolved or its outcome is predictable with a high enough degree of certainty to permit resolution of the Watch.

Rating Watches can be employed by all analytical groups and are applied to the ratings of individual entities and/or individual instruments. At the lowest categories of speculative grade (‘CCC’, ‘CC’ and ‘C’) the high volatility of credit profiles may imply that almost all ratings should carry a Watch. Watches are nonetheless only applied selectively in these categories, where a committee decides that particular events or threats are best communicated by the addition of the Watch designation.

Rating Outlook — trends that have not yet reached the level that would trigger a rating action, but which may do so if such trends continue. The majority of Outlooks are generally Stable, which is consistent with the historical migration experience of ratings over a one- to two-year period. Positive or Negative rating Outlooks do not imply that a rating change is inevitable and, similarly, ratings with Stable Outlooks can be raised or lowered without a prior revision to the Outlook, if circumstances warrant such an action. Occasionally, where the fundamental trend has strong, conflicting elements of both positive and negative, the Rating Outlook may be described as “Evolving”.

Outlooks are currently applied on the long-term scale to issuer ratings in corporate finance (including sovereigns, industrials, utilities, financial institutions and insurance companies) and public finance outside the U.S.; to issue ratings in public finance in the U.S.; to certain issues in project finance; to Insurer Financial Strength Ratings; to issuer and/or issue ratings in a number of National Rating scales; and to the ratings of structured finance transactions and covered bonds. Outlooks are not applied to ratings assigned on the short-term scale and are applied selectively to ratings in the ‘CCC’, ‘CC’ and ‘C’ categories. Defaulted ratings typically do not carry an Outlook.

Item 29. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with Registrant.

None.

Item 30. Indemnification

Article X, Section 10.02 of Registrant’s Delaware Trust Instrument, incorporated herein as Exhibit (a)(2) hereto, provides for the indemnification of Registrant’s Trustees and officers, as follows:

Section 10.02 Indemnification.  

(a)		Subject to the exceptions and limitations contained in Subsection 10.02(b):
	(i)	every person who is, or has been, a Trustee or officer of the Trust (hereinafter referred to as a “Covered Person”) shall be indemnified by the Trust to the fullest extent permitted by law against liability and against all expenses reasonably incurred or paid by him in connection with any claim, action, suit or proceeding in which he becomes involved as a party or otherwise by virtue of his being or having been a Trustee or officer and against amounts paid or incurred by him in the settlement thereof;
	(ii)	the words “claim,” “action,” “suit,” or “proceeding” shall apply to all claims, actions, suits or proceedings (civil, crimi- nal or other, including appeals), actual or threatened while in office or thereafter, and the words “liability” and “expenses” shall include, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, costs, judgments, amounts paid in settlement, fines, penal- ties and other liabilities.
(b)		No indemnification shall be provided hereunder to a Covered Person:
	(i)	who shall have been adjudicated by a court or body before which the proceeding was brought (A) to be liable to the Trust or its Shareholders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office or (B) not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of the Trust; or
	(ii)	in the event of a settlement, unless there has been a determination that such Trustee or officer did not engage in willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office, (A) by the court or other body approving the settlement; (B) by at least a majority of those Trustees who are neither inter- ested persons of the Trust nor are parties to the matter based upon a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry); or (C) by written opinion of independent legal counsel based upon a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry).
(c)		The rights of indemnification herein provided may be insured against by policies maintained by the Trust, shall be sev- erable, shall not be exclusive of or affect any other rights to which any Covered Person may now or hereafter be entitled, shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Covered Person and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. Nothing contained herein shall affect any rights to indemnification to which Trust personnel, other than Covered Persons, and other persons may be entitled by contract or otherwise under law.
(d)		Expenses in connection with the preparation and presentation of a defense to any claim, action, suit or proceeding of the character described in Subsection (a) of this Section 10.02 may be paid by the Trust or Series from time to time prior to final disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Covered Person that such amount will be paid over by him to the Trust or Series if it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to indemni- fication under this Section 10.02; provided, however, that either (i) such Covered Person shall have provided appropri- ate security for such undertaking, (ii) the Trust is insured against losses arising out of any such advance payments or (iii) either a majority of the Trustees who are neither interested persons of the Trust nor parties to the matter, or inde- pendent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall have determined, based upon a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a trial-type inquiry or full investigation), that there is reason to believe that such Covered Person will be found entitled to indemnification under this Section 10.02. The advancement of any expenses pursuant to this Sec- tion 10.02(d) shall under no circumstances be considered a “loan” under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or for any other reason.

Indemnification of the Fund’s principal underwriter, custodian, fund accountant, and transfer agent is provided for, respectively, in Section V of the Distribution Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit (e)(1) hereto, Section 12 of the Global Custodial Services Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit (g)(1) hereto, Section 9 of the Administration and Fund Accounting Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit (h)(2) hereto and Section 9 of the Transfer Agency Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit (h)(4) hereto. Registrant has obtained from a major insurance carrier a trustees’ and officers’ liability policy covering certain types of errors and omissions. In no event will Registrant indemnify any of its trustees, officers, employees or agents against any liability to which such person would otherwise be subject by reason of his willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his duties, or by reason of his reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of

C-4

his office or under his agreement with Registrant. Registrant will comply with Rule 484 under the Securities Act of 1933 and Release 11330 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 in connection with any indemnification.

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers, and controlling persons of Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer, or controlling person of Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO THE

INVESTMENT SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDMENT NO. 2 dated as of August 24, 2021, to the Sub-Advisory Agreement dated as of July 29, 2016, as amended ("Agreement"), is made by and among Victory Capital Management Inc., a New York corporation ("Adviser"), and Park Avenue Institutional Advisers, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Sub-Adviser").

WHEREAS, the Parties entered into the Agreement pursuant to which the Sub-Adviser provides investment management services to the Funds listed on Annex A (each "Fund"), a separate series of Victory Portfolios; and

WHEREAS, the Parties desire to revise the compensation payable to the Sub-Adviser under the Agreement effective September 1, 2021;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, it is agreed as follow:

1.Item 7 — Compensation of the Agreement is revised in its entirety to read as follows:

7.Compensation. As compensation for the services which the Sub-Adviser is to provide or cause to be provided pursuant to Paragraph 3, the Adviser shall pay to the Sub-Adviser out of the Adviser's assets attributable to each Fund a fee, computed and accrued daily and paid monthly in arrears within the first five (5) business days of every month, at the annual rate set forth opposite such Fund's name set forth on Annex A. The fee to be paid to the Sub-Adviser shall be determined as of the close of business on each business day throughout the month, multiplied by the portion of that Fund's assets allocated by the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser for investment during such month. The Adviser shall not be required to make any payment hereunder in respect of services rendered by the Sub-Adviser relating to any Fund for any period unless and until the Adviser has received payment under the Advisory Agreement from such Fund for such period. At the request of the Adviser, for administrative convenience, some or all of such fee shall be paid directly by the Funds to the Sub-Adviser from fees payable to the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement. However, neither the Trust nor the Funds shall be liable to the Sub-Adviser for the compensation of the Sub-Adviser. The fee for any partial month under this Agreement shall be calculated on a proportionate basis.

2.Annex A of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the attached new Annex A.

Victory INCORE Total Return Bond Fund

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">INCORE Total Return Bond Fund </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;">Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory INCORE Total Return Bond Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide a high level of current income.

Its secondary objective is capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 17 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:0%;">The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.</span>

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 79% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objectives by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in a broad range of bonds.The Adviser uses bond market sector allocation, yield curve positioning, and comprehensive credit analysis to select securities for the Fund. When making investment decisions for corporate bonds, in addition to considering traditional financial and non-financial factors, the Adviser also considers material Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) related risks and opportunities, both positive and negative, that it believes have the potential to impact a company’s financial performance over an investment’s time horizon. In evaluating ESG factors, the Adviser seeks to quantify how ESG factors affect a corporate bond issuer’s credit quality, but ESG is not a primary factor in the team’s investment decision-making process. ESG factors can vary across companies and industries and may include, but are not limited to, environmental impact, corporate governance, ethical business practices, compliance with regulatory requirements, as well as the use of human, natural, and physical capital.Under normal market conditions, the average duration of the Fund’s portfolio is expected to be between 3 and 7 years. Bonds, also known as fixed income securities, in which the Fund may invest include without limitation: U.S. government securities, including securities issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government; long- and short-term corporate debt obligations; mortgage-backed securities, including collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS); asset-backed securities, including collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) and collateralized loan obligations (CLOs); convertible bonds and notes; and U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of foreign governments, corporations and banks (i.e., Yankee Bonds).The bonds in which the Fund will invest will generally be rated investment-grade or better (Baa3 and above by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or BBB- and above by Standard & Poor’s), or if unrated, have been determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in below-investment-grade debt securities, commonly known as “high yield” securities or “junk bonds.”The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, to-be-announced (TBA), delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short-term trading of portfolio securities. There is no limitation on the maturity of any specific security the Fund may purchase, and the Fund may sell any security before it matures.The Fund may enter into exchange-traded or over-the-counter derivatives transactions of any kind, such as futures contracts (both long and short positions) and options on futures and swap contracts, including, for example, interest rate swaps and credit default swaps. The Fund also may enter into exchange-traded or over-the-counter foreign currency exchange transactions, including currency futures, forward, and options transactions. The Fund may enter into any of these transactions for a variety of purposes, including, but not limited to, hedging various risks such as credit risk, interest rate risk, currency risk, and liquidity risk; taking a net long or short position in certain investments or markets; providing liquidity in the Fund; equitizing cash; minimizing transaction costs; generating income; adjusting the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate risk, currency risk, or other risk; replicating certain direct investments; and asset and sector allocation. Some of these strategies may be considered speculative and involve additional risks.The Fund may invest in investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (ETFs), for cash management purposes or to seek exposure to a particular asset class.Although the Fund will primarily be invested in domestic securities, up to 20% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, which may be denominated in foreign currencies.The Adviser regularly reviews the Fund’s investments and may sell investments when it believes they are no longer attractive due to valuation, changes in the fundamental outlook of the company or other investments are considered more attractive.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Debt Securities Risk — The value of a debt security or other income-producing security changes in response to various factors, including, for example, market-related factors (such as changes in interest rates or changes in the risk appetite of investors generally) and changes in the actual or perceived ability of the issuer (or of issuers generally) to meet its (or their) obligations. Other factors that may affect the value of debt securities, include, among others, public health crises and responses by governments and companies to such crises. These and other events may affect the creditworthiness of the issuer of a debt security and may impair an issuer's ability to timely meet its debt obligations as they come due.High-Yield/Junk Bond Risk — Lower-quality debt securities can involve a substantially greater risk of default than higher quality debt securities, and their values can decline significantly over short and longer periods of time. Lower-quality debt securities tend to be more sensitive to adverse news about the issuer, or the market or economy in general.Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk — During periods of falling interest rates, mortgage- and asset-backed securities may be called or prepaid, which may result in the Fund having to reinvest proceeds in other investments at a lower interest rate. During periods of rising interest rates, the average life of mortgage- and asset-backed securities may extend, which may lock in a below-market interest rate, increase the security's duration, and reduce the value of the security. Enforcing rights against the underlying assets or collateral may be difficult, or the underlying assets or collateral may be insufficient if the issuer defaults.When-Issued, TBA and Delayed Delivery Risk — The market value of a security issued on a when-issued, to-be-announced or delayed-delivery basis may change before the delivery date, which may adversely impact the Fund’s net asset value. There is also the risk that a party fails to deliver the security on time or at all.Derivatives Risk — Derivative instruments and strategies, including futures and selling securities short, may not perfectly replicate direct investment in the security. Derivatives also entail exposure to counterparty credit risk, the risk of mispricing or improper valuation, and the risk that small price movements can result in substantial gains or losses.Credit Derivatives Risk – Credit default swaps can create investment leverage and may create additional investment risks that may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in more traditional securities.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Investment Company Risk — An investment company or similar vehicle (including an ETF) in which the Fund invests may not achieve its investment objective. Underlying investment vehicles are subject to investment advisory and other expenses, which will be indirectly paid by the Fund. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.Portfolio Turnover Risk — Higher portfolio turnover ratios resulting from additional purchases and sales of portfolio securities will generally result in higher transaction costs and Fund expenses and can lead to distribution of additional short-term capital gains to investors, which are taxed as ordinary income.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Performance</span>

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com. Performance of Class A, C and Y shares reflects the performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C and Y shares of the Munder Bond Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund that was managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Bond Fund.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Calendar Year Returns for Class Y Shares</span>

(The annual return in the bar chart is for the Fund’s least expensive class of shares, Class Y shares.)

After-tax returns use the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the effect of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant if you own your Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. After-tax returns are shown for only one share class. The after-tax returns for other classes will vary.

The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy [Heading]	rr_StrategyHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>
Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objectives by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in a broad range of bonds.The Adviser uses bond market sector allocation, yield curve positioning, and comprehensive credit analysis to select securities for the Fund. When making investment decisions for corporate bonds, in addition to considering traditional financial and non-financial factors, the Adviser also considers material Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) related risks and opportunities, both positive and negative, that it believes have the potential to impact a company’s financial performance over an investment’s time horizon. In evaluating ESG factors, the Adviser seeks to quantify how ESG factors affect a corporate bond issuer’s credit quality, but ESG is not a primary factor in the team’s investment decision-making process. ESG factors can vary across companies and industries and may include, but are not limited to, environmental impact, corporate governance, ethical business practices, compliance with regulatory requirements, as well as the use of human, natural, and physical capital.Under normal market conditions, the average duration of the Fund’s portfolio is expected to be between 3 and 7 years. Bonds, also known as fixed income securities, in which the Fund may invest include without limitation: U.S. government securities, including securities issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. government; long- and short-term corporate debt obligations; mortgage-backed securities, including collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS); asset-backed securities, including collateralized debt obligations (CDOs) and collateralized loan obligations (CLOs); convertible bonds and notes; and U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of foreign governments, corporations and banks (i.e., Yankee Bonds).The bonds in which the Fund will invest will generally be rated investment-grade or better (Baa3 and above by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or BBB- and above by Standard & Poor’s), or if unrated, have been determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in below-investment-grade debt securities, commonly known as “high yield” securities or “junk bonds.”The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, to-be-announced (TBA), delayed delivery or forward commitment basis and may engage in short-term trading of portfolio securities. There is no limitation on the maturity of any specific security the Fund may purchase, and the Fund may sell any security before it matures.The Fund may enter into exchange-traded or over-the-counter derivatives transactions of any kind, such as futures contracts (both long and short positions) and options on futures and swap contracts, including, for example, interest rate swaps and credit default swaps. The Fund also may enter into exchange-traded or over-the-counter foreign currency exchange transactions, including currency futures, forward, and options transactions. The Fund may enter into any of these transactions for a variety of purposes, including, but not limited to, hedging various risks such as credit risk, interest rate risk, currency risk, and liquidity risk; taking a net long or short position in certain investments or markets; providing liquidity in the Fund; equitizing cash; minimizing transaction costs; generating income; adjusting the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate risk, currency risk, or other risk; replicating certain direct investments; and asset and sector allocation. Some of these strategies may be considered speculative and involve additional risks.The Fund may invest in investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (ETFs), for cash management purposes or to seek exposure to a particular asset class.Although the Fund will primarily be invested in domestic securities, up to 20% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, which may be denominated in foreign currencies.The Adviser regularly reviews the Fund’s investments and may sell investments when it believes they are no longer attractive due to valuation, changes in the fundamental outlook of the company or other investments are considered more attractive.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Debt Securities Risk — The value of a debt security or other income-producing security changes in response to various factors, including, for example, market-related factors (such as changes in interest rates or changes in the risk appetite of investors generally) and changes in the actual or perceived ability of the issuer (or of issuers generally) to meet its (or their) obligations. Other factors that may affect the value of debt securities, include, among others, public health crises and responses by governments and companies to such crises. These and other events may affect the creditworthiness of the issuer of a debt security and may impair an issuer's ability to timely meet its debt obligations as they come due.High-Yield/Junk Bond Risk — Lower-quality debt securities can involve a substantially greater risk of default than higher quality debt securities, and their values can decline significantly over short and longer periods of time. Lower-quality debt securities tend to be more sensitive to adverse news about the issuer, or the market or economy in general.Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk — During periods of falling interest rates, mortgage- and asset-backed securities may be called or prepaid, which may result in the Fund having to reinvest proceeds in other investments at a lower interest rate. During periods of rising interest rates, the average life of mortgage- and asset-backed securities may extend, which may lock in a below-market interest rate, increase the security's duration, and reduce the value of the security. Enforcing rights against the underlying assets or collateral may be difficult, or the underlying assets or collateral may be insufficient if the issuer defaults.When-Issued, TBA and Delayed Delivery Risk — The market value of a security issued on a when-issued, to-be-announced or delayed-delivery basis may change before the delivery date, which may adversely impact the Fund’s net asset value. There is also the risk that a party fails to deliver the security on time or at all.Derivatives Risk — Derivative instruments and strategies, including futures and selling securities short, may not perfectly replicate direct investment in the security. Derivatives also entail exposure to counterparty credit risk, the risk of mispricing or improper valuation, and the risk that small price movements can result in substantial gains or losses.Credit Derivatives Risk – Credit default swaps can create investment leverage and may create additional investment risks that may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in more traditional securities.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Investment Company Risk — An investment company or similar vehicle (including an ETF) in which the Fund invests may not achieve its investment objective. Underlying investment vehicles are subject to investment advisory and other expenses, which will be indirectly paid by the Fund. Lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in an ETF being more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities.Portfolio Turnover Risk — Higher portfolio turnover ratios resulting from additional purchases and sales of portfolio securities will generally result in higher transaction costs and Fund expenses and can lead to distribution of additional short-term capital gains to investors, which are taxed as ordinary income.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Performance Narrative [Text Block]	rr_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock	The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com. Performance of Class A, C and Y shares reflects the performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C and Y shares of the Munder Bond Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund that was managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Bond Fund.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Integrity Discovery Fund Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Integrity Discovery Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 34 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:0%;">The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.</span>

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 41% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of micro-capitalization companies. Micro-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase lower than the largest company in the bottom 75% (based on index weightings) of the Russell 2000® Index, which as of September 30, 2021 included companies with market capitalizations below $4.3 billion. The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund focuses on undiscovered, micro-capitalization companies in its attempt to provide investors with potentially higher returns than a fund that invests primarily in larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization companies are generally not as well known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies, the Adviser believes these inefficiencies in the marketplace may provide higher returns.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the financials sector.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Micro-Capitalization Stock Risk – Micro-capitalization companies tend to be less seasoned and may lose market share or profits to a greater extent than larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be more difficult to purchase and sell. Micro-capitalization companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Performance</span>

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.Performance of Class A, C, R and Y shares reflects the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, R and Y shares of the Munder Micro-Cap Equity Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management and subadvised by Integrity Asset Management, LLC). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Micro-Cap Fund.

After-tax returns use the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the effect of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant if you own your Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. After-tax returns are shown for only one share class. The after-tax returns for other classes will vary.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of micro-capitalization companies. Micro-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase lower than the largest company in the bottom 75% (based on index weightings) of the Russell 2000® Index, which as of September 30, 2021 included companies with market capitalizations below $4.3 billion. The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund focuses on undiscovered, micro-capitalization companies in its attempt to provide investors with potentially higher returns than a fund that invests primarily in larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization companies are generally not as well known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies, the Adviser believes these inefficiencies in the marketplace may provide higher returns.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the financials sector.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Micro-Capitalization Stock Risk – Micro-capitalization companies tend to be less seasoned and may lose market share or profits to a greater extent than larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be more difficult to purchase and sell. Micro-capitalization companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 34 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:0%;">The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.</span>

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 67% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.Mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com. The performance figures for Class A and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A and Y shares of the Munder Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management and subadvised by Integrity Asset Management, LLC). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund.

The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.Mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons.

Victory Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;">Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Integrity Small-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide long-term capital growth.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 34 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:0%;">The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.</span>

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 56% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small-capitalization companies.Small-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2000® Index ($40.0 million to $19.5 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Small-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Performance</span>

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.The performance figures for Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares of the Munder Veracity Small-Cap Value Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management and sub-advised by Integrity Asset Management, LLC) (“Munder Fund”). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Fund. The historical performance for the Munder Fund’s Class A and Y shares in the bar chart and table below for the periods prior to May 14, 2011 is that of the Class R and I shares, respectively, of the Veracity Small Cap Value Fund (the predecessor to the Munder Fund) (“Veracity Fund”). The performance for Class A and Y shares have not been restated to reflect any difference in the expenses of the Veracity Fund’s Class R and I shares, respectively. The performance for Class C and R shares in the table below for the periods prior to May 14, 2011 is the performance and inception date of the Veracity Fund’s Class I shares adjusted for differences in the applicable sales loads and Rule 12b-1 fees of these classes.

Portfolio Turnover [Text Block]	rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock	The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 56% of the average value of its portfolio.
Portfolio Turnover, Rate	rr_PortfolioTurnoverRate	56.00%
Expenses Deferred Charges [Text Block]	rr_ExpensesDeferredChargesTextBlock	A contingent deferred sales charge of 0.75% may be imposed on Class A shares with respect to purchases of $1,000,000 or more that are redeemed within 18 months of purchase. For additional information, see the section entitled Choosing a Share Class.Applies to shares sold within 12 months of purchase.

Expense Example Narrative [Text Block]	rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock	The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy [Heading]	rr_StrategyHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>
Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small-capitalization companies.Small-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2000® Index ($40.0 million to $19.5 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Small-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Performance Narrative [Text Block]	rr_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock	The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.The performance figures for Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares of the Munder Veracity Small-Cap Value Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management and sub-advised by Integrity Asset Management, LLC) (“Munder Fund”). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Fund. The historical performance for the Munder Fund’s Class A and Y shares in the bar chart and table below for the periods prior to May 14, 2011 is that of the Class R and I shares, respectively, of the Veracity Small Cap Value Fund (the predecessor to the Munder Fund) (“Veracity Fund”). The performance for Class A and Y shares have not been restated to reflect any difference in the expenses of the Veracity Fund’s Class R and I shares, respectively. The performance for Class C and R shares in the table below for the periods prior to May 14, 2011 is the performance and inception date of the Veracity Fund’s Class I shares adjusted for differences in the applicable sales loads and Rule 12b-1 fees of these classes.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 34 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 61% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small- to mid-capitalization companies. Small- to mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2500® Index ($40.0 million to $30.5 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- and mid-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Performance</span>

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.The performance figures for Class A and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A and Y shares of the Munder Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management and subadvised by Integrity Asset Management, LLC). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Integrity Discovery Fund Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Integrity Discovery Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 41% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of micro-capitalization companies. Micro-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase lower than the largest company in the bottom 75% (based on index weightings) of the Russell 2000® Index, which as of September 30, 2021 included companies with market capitalizations below $4.3 billion. The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund focuses on undiscovered, micro-capitalization companies in its attempt to provide investors with potentially higher returns than a fund that invests primarily in larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization companies are generally not as well known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies, the Adviser believes these inefficiencies in the marketplace may provide higher returns.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the financials sector.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Micro-Capitalization Stock Risk – Micro-capitalization companies tend to be less seasoned and may lose market share or profits to a greater extent than larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be more difficult to purchase and sell. Micro-capitalization companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Performance</span>

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund.The information presented is for that of the Fund’s Class Y shares (which are not offered by this prospectus). The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the average annual total returns of the Fund’s Class Y shares over the same period to a broad measure of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.While no information is shown for the Member Class shares (because they do not yet have a full calendar year of performance), annual returns for Member Class shares would have been substantially similar to those shown here. Member Class shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.

Micro-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase lower than the largest company in the bottom 75% (based on index weightings) of the Russell 2000® Index, which as of September 30, 2021 included companies with market capitalizations below $4.3 billion. The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund focuses on undiscovered, micro-capitalization companies in its attempt to provide investors with potentially higher returns than a fund that invests primarily in larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization companies are generally not as well known to investors and have less of an investor following than larger companies, the Adviser believes these inefficiencies in the marketplace may provide higher returns.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the financials sector.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Micro-Capitalization Stock Risk – Micro-capitalization companies tend to be less seasoned and may lose market share or profits to a greater extent than larger, more established companies. Since micro-capitalization company stocks typically have narrower markets and are traded in lower volumes than larger company stocks, they may be more difficult to purchase and sell. Micro-capitalization companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the average annual total returns of the Fund’s Class Y shares over the same period to a broad measure of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.While no information is shown for the Member Class shares (because they do not yet have a full calendar year of performance), annual returns for Member Class shares would have been substantially similar to those shown here. Member Class shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Integrity Mid-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 67% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.Mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund.The information presented is for that of the Fund’s Class Y shares (which are not offered by this prospectus). The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the average annual total returns of the Fund’s Class Y shares over the same period to a broad measure of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.While no information is shown for the Member Class shares (because they do not yet have a full calendar year of performance), annual returns for Member Class shares would have been substantially similar to those shown here. Member Class shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.

Portfolio Turnover [Text Block]	rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock	The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 67% of the average value of its portfolio.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.Mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Performance Narrative [Text Block]	rr_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock	The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund.The information presented is for that of the Fund’s Class Y shares (which are not offered by this prospectus). The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the average annual total returns of the Fund’s Class Y shares over the same period to a broad measure of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.While no information is shown for the Member Class shares (because they do not yet have a full calendar year of performance), annual returns for Member Class shares would have been substantially similar to those shown here. Member Class shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Integrity Small/Mid-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 61% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small- to mid-capitalization companies. Small- to mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2500® Index ($40.0 million to $30.5 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund.The information presented is for that of the Fund’s Class Y shares (which are not offered by this prospectus). The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the average annual total returns of the Fund’s Class Y shares over the same period to a broad measure of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.While no information is shown for the Member Class shares (because they do not yet have a full calendar year of performance), annual returns for Member Class shares would have been substantially similar to those shown here. Member Class shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.

Portfolio Turnover [Text Block]	rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock	The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 61% of the average value of its portfolio.

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small- to mid-capitalization companies. Small- to mid-capitalization companies are those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2500® Index ($40.0 million to $30.5 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in the index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.When selecting securities for a Fund, the Adviser seeks out companies that appear to be undervalued according to certain financial measurements of their intrinsic net worth or business prospects. The Adviser employs a value-oriented approach that focuses on securities that offer value with improving investor sentiment.The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, the Fund may focus its investments in companies in one or more economic sectors, including the financials sector.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the financials sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Financials Sector Risk — The Fund’s investments in companies within the financials sector means that market or economic factors impacting that sector could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile. Financial companies, such as retail and commercial banks, insurance companies and financial services companies, are especially subject to the adverse effects of economic recession, currency exchange rates, extensive government regulation, decreases in the availability of capital, volatile interest rates, portfolio concentrations in geographic markets, industries or products (such as commercial and residential real estate loans) and competition from new entrants in their fields of business.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Performance Narrative [Text Block]	rr_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock	The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund.The information presented is for that of the Fund’s Class Y shares (which are not offered by this prospectus). The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the average annual total returns of the Fund’s Class Y shares over the same period to a broad measure of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.While no information is shown for the Member Class shares (because they do not yet have a full calendar year of performance), annual returns for Member Class shares would have been substantially similar to those shown here. Member Class shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.

Victory Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 31 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:0%;">The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.</span>

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 103% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund's objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.Mid-capitalization companies means those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the S&P MidCap 400® Index ($1.3 billion to $17.8 billion as of September 30, 2021) or within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in an index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.The Fund’s investment style, which focuses on both growth prospects and valuation, is known as GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price). This blended process seeks to perform better than either a pure growth or pure value approach over a complete market cycle.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund's assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the information technology sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons.

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.The performance figures for Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C, R, R6 and Y shares of the Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund's performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Mid-Cap Core Growth Fund.

Expense Example Narrative [Text Block]	rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock	The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund's objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's assets in equity securities of mid-capitalization companies.Mid-capitalization companies means those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the S&P MidCap 400® Index ($1.3 billion to $17.8 billion as of September 30, 2021) or within the range of companies included in the Russell Midcap® Index ($1.6 billion to $69.6 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in an index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.The Fund’s investment style, which focuses on both growth prospects and valuation, is known as GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price). This blended process seeks to perform better than either a pure growth or pure value approach over a complete market cycle.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund's assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Mid-Capitalization Stock Risk — Mid-sized companies may be subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the information technology sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Victory Munder Multi-Cap Fund

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Munder Multi-Cap Fund Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Munder Multi-Cap Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 31 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:0%;">The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.</span>

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 70% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by identifying secular growth trends and investing in equity securities of companies the Adviser believes will benefit from these trends. The Fund invests in companies with market capitalization of $1 billion and above.In selecting individual securities for the Fund, the Adviser employs a bottom-up analysis, which involves a thorough review of a company’s products and services, competitive positioning, balance sheet and financial stability. In addition, in selecting securities for the Fund, the Adviser attempts to identify and evaluate underlying growth drivers for each company and to arrive at a projected fair value for the company’s equity securities.As a result of the Fund’s focus on secular growth trends, a significant portion of the Fund’s assets may be invested in one or more sectors, including the information technology sector, industries and types of companies that the Adviser believes have significant growth opportunities and exhibit attractive long-term growth characteristics.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- and mid-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Large-Capitalization Stock Risk — The securities of large-capitalization companies may underperform the securities of smaller-capitalization companies or the market as a whole. The growth rate of larger, more established companies may lag those of smaller companies, especially during periods of economic expansion.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the information technology sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Portfolio Turnover Risk — Higher portfolio turnover ratios resulting from additional purchases and sales of portfolio securities will generally result in higher transaction costs and Fund expenses and can lead to distribution of additional short-term capital gains to investors, which are taxed as ordinary income.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Performance</span>

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.The performance figures for Class A, C and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C and Y shares of the Munder Growth Opportunities Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund that was managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Growth Opportunities Fund.

After-tax returns use the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the effect of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant if you own your Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. After-tax returns are shown for only one share class. The after-tax returns for other classes will vary.

A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 70% of the average value of its portfolio.

Expense Example Narrative [Text Block]	rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock	The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund’s investment objective by identifying secular growth trends and investing in equity securities of companies the Adviser believes will benefit from these trends. The Fund invests in companies with market capitalization of $1 billion and above.In selecting individual securities for the Fund, the Adviser employs a bottom-up analysis, which involves a thorough review of a company’s products and services, competitive positioning, balance sheet and financial stability. In addition, in selecting securities for the Fund, the Adviser attempts to identify and evaluate underlying growth drivers for each company and to arrive at a projected fair value for the company’s equity securities.As a result of the Fund’s focus on secular growth trends, a significant portion of the Fund’s assets may be invested in one or more sectors, including the information technology sector, industries and types of companies that the Adviser believes have significant growth opportunities and exhibit attractive long-term growth characteristics.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- and mid-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Large-Capitalization Stock Risk — The securities of large-capitalization companies may underperform the securities of smaller-capitalization companies or the market as a whole. The growth rate of larger, more established companies may lag those of smaller companies, especially during periods of economic expansion.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the information technology sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Portfolio Turnover Risk — Higher portfolio turnover ratios resulting from additional purchases and sales of portfolio securities will generally result in higher transaction costs and Fund expenses and can lead to distribution of additional short-term capital gains to investors, which are taxed as ordinary income.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Performance Narrative [Text Block]	rr_PerformanceNarrativeTextBlock	The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.The performance figures for Class A, C and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, C and Y shares of the Munder Growth Opportunities Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund that was managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any differences in the expenses of the Munder Growth Opportunities Fund.

Victory Munder Small Cap Growth Fund

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Munder Small Cap Growth Fund </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;">Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Munder Small Cap Growth Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 31 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 28% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues long-term capital appreciation in the Fund by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small capitalization companies. Small capitalization companies means those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2000® Growth Index ($40.0 million to $17.0 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in an index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.The Fund’s investment style, which focuses on both growth prospects and valuation, is known as GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price). This blended process seeks to perform better than either a pure growth or pure value approach over a complete market cycle.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the healthcare sector.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Small-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the healthcare sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Healthcare — The profitability of companies in the healthcare sector may be affected by government regulations and government healthcare programs, increases or decreases in the cost of medical products and services, an increased emphasis on outpatient services, demand for medical products and services and product liability claims, among other factors.◼Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance.

Expense Example Narrative [Text Block]	rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock	The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same.

Strategy [Heading]	rr_StrategyHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>
Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues long-term capital appreciation in the Fund by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in equity securities of small capitalization companies. Small capitalization companies means those companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase within the range of companies included in the Russell 2000® Growth Index ($40.0 million to $17.0 billion as of September 30, 2021). The size of companies in an index changes with market conditions and the composition of the index.The Fund’s investment style, which focuses on both growth prospects and valuation, is known as GARP (Growth at a Reasonable Price). This blended process seeks to perform better than either a pure growth or pure value approach over a complete market cycle.Although the Fund will be invested primarily in domestic securities, up to 25% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in foreign securities, including depositary receipts such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs).From time to time, due to changes in sector weights of the benchmark index, the Fund’s investments can be more focused in companies in one or more economic sectors, such as the healthcare sector.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Small-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Sector Risk — To the extent the Fund focuses in one or more sectors, such as the healthcare sector, market or economic factors impacting those sectors could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments and could make the Fund’s performance more volatile.◼Healthcare — The profitability of companies in the healthcare sector may be affected by government regulations and government healthcare programs, increases or decreases in the cost of medical products and services, an increased emphasis on outpatient services, demand for medical products and services and product liability claims, among other factors.◼Information Technology Risk — Information Technology companies tend to significantly rely on technological events or advances in their product development, production or operations and are particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technological product cycles, government regulation and competition.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax.

An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

Victory SP 500 Index Fund

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">S&P 500 Index Fund Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory S&P 500 Index Fund (the “Fund”)  seeks to provide performance and income that is comparable to the S&P 500® Index (the “Index”).

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 12 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 3% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

Victory Capital Management Inc. (“Adviser”) pursues the Fund’s objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of companies in the S&P 500® Index (“Index”). The Index is an unmanaged index of 500 common stocks selected by Standard & Poor’s as representative of a broad range of industries within the U.S. economy, including foreign securities. The Index is composed primarily of stocks issued by large-capitalization companies.To replicate the performance of the Index, the Adviser purchases and maintains all or substantially all of the securities included in the Index, in approximately the same percentages as such securities are included in the Index. Because the Fund seeks to track the performance of the Index, the Adviser does not actively determine the stock selection or sector allocation. The percentage weighting of a particular security in the Index is determined by that security’s relative total market capitalization, which is the market price per share of the security multiplied by the number of shares outstanding.To track the Index as closely as possible, the Fund attempts to remain fully invested in stocks. The Fund normally invests at least 95% of its net assets in the stocks of companies included in the Index. The Adviser uses futures contracts to manage cash, accrued dividends and other non-performing assets in an effort to minimize performance disparity between the Fund and the Index.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Passive Investment Risk/Index Risk — The Fund is designed to track the Index and is not actively managed. The Fund will not buy or sell shares of an equity security due to current or projected performance of a security, industry or sector, unless that security is added to or removed, respectively, from the Index. The Fund does not, therefore, seek returns in excess of the Index, and does not attempt to take defensive positions or hedge against potential risks unless such defensive positions are also taken by the Index.Tracking Risk — The Fund's return may not match the return of the Index for a number of reasons, including: the Fund incurs operating expenses not applicable to the Index, and incurs costs in buying and selling securities; the Fund may not be fully invested at times; differences in the valuation of securities; and differences between the Fund's portfolio and the Index resulting from legal restrictions, cost or liquidity constraints.Futures Contracts Risk – The Fund's use of futures contracts exposes the Fund to leverage and tracking risks because a small investment in futures contracts may produce large losses and futures contracts may not be perfect substitutes for securities.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Performance</span>

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.The performance figures for Class A, R and Y shares reflect the historical performance prior to October 31, 2014 of, respectively, the Class A, R and Y shares of the Munder Index 500 Fund, a series of Munder Series Trust (the predecessor to the Fund managed by Munder Capital Management). The Fund’s performance has not been restated to reflect any difference in the expenses of the Munder Index 500 Fund.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Calendar Year Returns for Class Y Shares</span>

(The annual return in the bar chart is for the Fund’s least expensive class of shares, Class Y shares.)

After-tax returns use the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the effect of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant if you own your Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. After-tax returns are shown for only one share class. The after-tax returns for other classes will vary.

Victory Trivalent International Fund-Core Equity

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Trivalent International Fund — Core </span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:20.50pt;font-weight:bold;">Equity Summary</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Objective</span>

The Victory Trivalent International Fund — Core Equity (the “Fund”) seeks to provide long-term growth of capital.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Fund Fees and Expenses</span>

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold, and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the tables and examples below. You may qualify for sales charge discounts if you and your immediate family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in the Victory Funds. More information about these and other discounts is available in Investing with the Victory Funds on page 22 of the Fund's Prospectus, in Appendix A — Variations in Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers Available Through Certain Intermediaries and from your financial intermediary.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Shareholder Fees</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(paid directly from your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.62%;">Annual Fund Operating Expenses</span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;">(expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)</span>

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:0%;">The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.</span>

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 47% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund's investment objective by investing primarily in securities of companies in countries represented in the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (“Index”), but may also invest in companies from other countries. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's assets will be invested in equity securities.The Adviser employs a bottom-up investment approach that emphasizes individual stock selection. The Adviser's investment process uses a combination of quantitative and traditional qualitative, fundamental analysis to identify attractive stocks with low relative price multiples, positive trends in earnings forecasts, high profitability and companies with a strong or positively trending environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) profile. The stock selection process is designed to produce a diversified portfolio that, relative to the Index, tends to have a below-average price-to-earnings ratio, above-average earnings growth trend and above-average return on invested capital. ESG investing considerations are not a primary or exclusive factor, but rather an additional inclusive consideration to the Adviser's process.The Fund's investment allocation to countries and sectors tends to approximate the country and sector allocations of the Index, which may focus its exposure in one or more countries, regions or sectors. The Index captures large and mid-cap representation across 22 of 23 developed markets countries (excluding the United States) and 27 emerging markets countries. The Index covers approximately 85% of the global equity opportunity set outside the United States. The Fund normally invests in a minimum of 10 countries.There is no limit on the market capitalization in which the Fund may invest; therefore, the Fund's investments may include small-, mid- and large-capitalization companies.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Emerging Markets Risk — The risks related to investing in foreign securities are generally greater with respect to securities of companies that conduct their business activities in emerging markets or whose securities are traded principally in emerging markets. The risks of investing in emerging markets include the risks of illiquidity, increased price volatility, smaller market capitalizations, limited reliable access to capital, less government regulation (including limitations on the available rights and remedies), market manipulation concerns, less extensive and less frequent recordkeeping,accounting, financial and other reporting requirements, risk of loss resulting from problems in share registration and custody, risks related to foreign investment structures, substantial economic and political disruptions and the nationalization of foreign deposits or assets.Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- and mid-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Large-Capitalization Stock Risk — The securities of large-capitalization companies may underperform the securities of smaller-capitalization companies or the market as a whole. The growth rate of larger, more established companies may lag those of smaller companies, especially during periods of economic expansion.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Investment Performance</span>

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Calendar Year Returns for Class Y Shares</span>

(The annual return in the bar chart is for the Fund’s least expensive class of shares, Class Y shares.)

After-tax returns use the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the effect of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns shown are not relevant if you own your Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. After-tax returns are shown for only one share class. The after-tax returns for other classes will vary.

Portfolio Turnover [Text Block]	rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock	The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 47% of the average value of its portfolio.

Expense Example Narrative [Text Block]	rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock	The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Strategy [Heading]	rr_StrategyHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>
Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock	The Adviser pursues the Fund's investment objective by investing primarily in securities of companies in countries represented in the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (“Index”), but may also invest in companies from other countries. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's assets will be invested in equity securities.The Adviser employs a bottom-up investment approach that emphasizes individual stock selection. The Adviser's investment process uses a combination of quantitative and traditional qualitative, fundamental analysis to identify attractive stocks with low relative price multiples, positive trends in earnings forecasts, high profitability and companies with a strong or positively trending environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) profile. The stock selection process is designed to produce a diversified portfolio that, relative to the Index, tends to have a below-average price-to-earnings ratio, above-average earnings growth trend and above-average return on invested capital. ESG investing considerations are not a primary or exclusive factor, but rather an additional inclusive consideration to the Adviser's process.The Fund's investment allocation to countries and sectors tends to approximate the country and sector allocations of the Index, which may focus its exposure in one or more countries, regions or sectors. The Index captures large and mid-cap representation across 22 of 23 developed markets countries (excluding the United States) and 27 emerging markets countries. The Index covers approximately 85% of the global equity opportunity set outside the United States. The Fund normally invests in a minimum of 10 countries.There is no limit on the market capitalization in which the Fund may invest; therefore, the Fund's investments may include small-, mid- and large-capitalization companies.
Risk [Heading]	rr_RiskHeading	<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>
Risk Narrative [Text Block]	rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock	The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Emerging Markets Risk — The risks related to investing in foreign securities are generally greater with respect to securities of companies that conduct their business activities in emerging markets or whose securities are traded principally in emerging markets. The risks of investing in emerging markets include the risks of illiquidity, increased price volatility, smaller market capitalizations, limited reliable access to capital, less government regulation (including limitations on the available rights and remedies), market manipulation concerns, less extensive and less frequent recordkeeping,accounting, financial and other reporting requirements, risk of loss resulting from problems in share registration and custody, risks related to foreign investment structures, substantial economic and political disruptions and the nationalization of foreign deposits or assets.Smaller-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- and mid-capitalization companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Large-Capitalization Stock Risk — The securities of large-capitalization companies may underperform the securities of smaller-capitalization companies or the market as a whole. The growth rate of larger, more established companies may lag those of smaller companies, especially during periods of economic expansion.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Large Shareholder Risk — Certain large shareholders, including other funds advised by the Adviser, may from time to time own a substantial amount of the Fund’s shares. The actions by one shareholder or multiple shareholders may have an impact on the Fund and, therefore, indirectly on other shareholders. Shareholder purchase and redemption activity may affect the per share amount of the Fund’s distributions of its net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, thereby affecting the tax burden on the Fund’s shareholders subject to federal income tax. To the extent a larger shareholder (including, for example, an affiliated fund that operates as a fund-of-funds or 529 college savings plan) is permitted to invest in the Fund, the Fund may experience large inflows or outflows of cash from time to time. This activity could magnify these adverse effects on the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Example:</span>

The following example is designed to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods shown and then sell or continue to hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The amounts shown reflect any fee waiver/expense reimbursement in place through its expiration date. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

<span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;margin-left:0%;">The following example makes the same assumptions as the example above, except that it assumes you </span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;">do not sell your Class C shares at the end of the period.</span>

The example does not reflect sales charges (loads) on reinvested dividends and other distributions. If these sales charges (loads) were included, your costs would be higher.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:8.20pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Portfolio Turnover:</span>

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover will generally indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal period, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 64% of the average value of its portfolio.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Investment Strategy</span>

The Adviser pursues the Fund's investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of companies principally in countries represented in the S&P® Developed ex-U.S. SmallCap Index (“Index”).Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's assets will be invested in securities of small-capitalization companies. The Adviser considers any company with a market capitalization at the time of purchase that is within such country's smallest 15% based on market capitalization to be a small-capitalization company. The size of companies in the Index changes with market conditions and the composition of the Index.The Adviser employs a bottom-up investment approach that emphasizes individual stock selection. The Adviser's investment process uses a combination of quantitative and traditional qualitative, fundamental analysis to identify attractive stocks with low relative price multiples, positive trends in earnings forecasts, high profitability and companies with a strong or positively trending environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) profile. The stock selection process is designed to produce a diversified portfolio that, relative to the Index, tends to have a below-average price-to-earnings ratio and an above-average earnings growth trend and above average return on invested capital. ESG investing considerations are not a primary or exclusive factor, but rather an additional inclusive consideration to the Adviser's process.The Fund's investment allocation to countries and sectors tends to approximate the country and sector allocations of the Index, which concentrates its exposure in one or more countries, regions or sectors. The Index consists of the stocks representing the lowest 15% of float-adjusted market capitalization in each country other than the U.S. represented in the S&P® Developed Broad Market Index (BMI). The S&P® Developed BMI includes all listed shares of companies from 24 developed countries with float-adjusted market capitalizations of at least US$100 million and annual trading value of at least US$50 million. The Fund normally invests in a minimum of 10 countries.

<span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:13.12pt;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0%;">Principal Risks</span>

The Fund’s investments are subject to the following principal risks:Equity Risk — The value of the equity securities in which the Fund invests may decline in response to developments affecting individual companies and/or general economic conditions in the United States or abroad. A company’s earnings or dividends may not increase as expected (or may decline) because of poor management, competitive pressures, reliance on particular suppliers or geographical regions, labor problems or shortages, corporate restructurings, fraudulent disclosures, man-made or natural disasters, military confrontations or wars, terrorism, public health crises, or other events, conditions and factors. Price changes may be temporary or last for extended periods.Stock Market Risk — Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Fund. Domestic and international factors such as political events, war, trade disputes, interest rate levels and other fiscal and monetary policy changes, pandemics and other public health crises and related geopolitical events, as well as environmental disasters such as earthquakes, fires and floods, may add to instability in world economies and markets generally. The impact of these and other factors may be short-term or may last for extended periods.Foreign Securities Risk — Foreign securities (including depositary receipts) are subject to political, regulatory, and economic risks not present in domestic investments. Foreign securities could be affected by factors not present in the U.S., including expropriation, confiscation of property, and difficulties in enforcing contracts. Compared to U.S. companies, there generally is less publicly available information about foreign companies and there may be less governmental regulation and supervision of foreign companies. Foreign securities generally experience more volatility than their domestic counterparts. Depositary receipts may have additional risks, including creditworthiness of the depositary bank and the risk of an illiquid market. In addition, to the extent investments are made in a limited number of countries, events in those countries will have a more significant impact on the Fund. Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment.Small-Capitalization Stock Risk — Small- companies are subject to a number of risks not associated with larger, more established companies, potentially making their stock prices more volatile and increasing the risk of loss. Smaller companies may have limited markets, product lines, or financial resources and lack management experience and may experience higher failure rates than larger companies.Investment Style Risk — Different types of investment styles, for example growth or value, tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions. As a result, the Fund’s performance may at times be worse than the performance of other mutual funds that invest more broadly or that have different investment styles.Liquidity Risk — Lack of a ready market or restrictions on resale may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of the Adviser. In addition, the Fund, by itself or together with other accounts managed by the Adviser, may hold a position in an investment that is large relative to the typical trading volume for that investment, which can make it difficult for the Fund to dispose of the position at an advantageous time or price. Illiquid investments and relatively less liquid investments may also be difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund may not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, unusually high volume of redemptions, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests or to raise cash to pursue other investment opportunities, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, which may adversely affect the Fund.Management Risk — The portfolio managers may not execute the Fund's principal investment strategy effectively.You may lose money by investing in the Fund. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency.By itself, the Fund does not constitute a complete investment plan and should be considered a long-term investment for investors who can afford to weather changes in the value of their investment.

The bar chart and table that follow are intended to help you understand some of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows you how the Fund’s calendar year performance has varied over the past 10 years (or the life of the Fund if shorter). The table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns of the Fund's share classes, including applicable maximum sales charges, over the same period to one or more broad measures of market performance. We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.

We assume reinvestment of dividends and distributions.Performance data for the classes varies based on differences in their fee and expense structures. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information is available on the Fund’s website at VictoryFunds.com.
