The following disclosure is added under the "MAIN RISKS" section of the summary prospectus and within the summary section and the "FUND DETAILS" section of the fund's prospectus:

Market disruption risk. Geopolitical and other events, including war, terrorism, economic uncertainty, trade disputes, public health crises and related geopolitical events have led, and in the future may lead, to increased market volatility, which may disrupt US and world economies and markets and may have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on the fund and its investments. Such events include the recent pandemic spread of the novel coronavirus known as COVID-19, the duration and full effects of which are still uncertain.

The fund could lose money due to the effects of a market disruption. Although multiple asset classes may be affected by a market disruption, the duration and effects may not be the same for all types of assets.
