2	Generally, no ordinary fees or expenses are charged to the Fund. Allspring Funds Management, LLC has contractually committed to irrevocably absorb and pay or reimburse all ordinary operating expenses of the Fund, except portfolio transactions or other investment related costs (e.g., commissions), fees payable for services provided by the Fund’s securities lending agent (if any), interest, taxes, leverage expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. This commitment has an indefinite term.
3	The Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of long-term tax-exempt bonds with a minimum credit rating of Baa. You cannot invest directly in an index.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect taxes that a shareholder may pay on an investment in a fund. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available by calling 1-888-877-9275.

Index returns do not include transaction costs associated with buying and selling securities, any mutual fund fees or expenses, or any taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.

Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This fund is exposed to high-yield securities risk and municipal securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

CoreBuilder Shares are a series of investment options within the separately managed accounts advised or subadvised by Allspring Funds Management, LLC. The shares are fee-waived mutual funds that enable certain separately managed account investors to achieve greater diversification than smaller managed accounts might otherwise achieve.

Please remember that shares of the Fund may be purchased only by or on behalf of separately managed account clients where Allspring Funds Management, LLC has an agreement to serve as investment adviser or subadviser to the account with the separately managed account sponsor (typically a registered investment adviser or broker/dealer) or directly with the client.

MANAGER'S DISCUSSION

Fund highlights

■ The Fund outperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index, for the 12-month period that ended December 31, 2021.

■ Credit positioning and security selection were the primary drivers of performance.

■ Duration and sector positioning were also modestly positive, but their contributions were dwarfed by credit and selection.

■ While our yield-curve positioning was generally positive, our underweight to the long end of the yield curve detracted.

Inflation and the Omicron variant were key drivers of performance.

The year began with a change of control in Washington with Democrats taking control of the Senate and the Presidency. Political theatre became too real as insurrection had to be put down quickly but not without significant property damage and human causalities. Democrats hit the ground running introducing and passing the American Rescue Plan early in the year providing $350 billion in direct payments to state and local governments. This combined with previous stimulus packages in 2020 and a dovish U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) policy for most of the year set the US economy up for continued recovery in face of a raging epidemic. Economic data was initially mixed but had a positive bent albeit with clear signs of supply chain and labor market issues and building inflationary pressures. With more widespread testing and vaccine rollouts optimism prevailed and economic data turned decidedly positive although previously mentioned issues remained.

The second half of the period was characterized by volatile U.S. markets as consumers weighed positive unemployment and growth trends against fears surrounding the latest Omicron variant of COVID-19 cases, supply chain disruptions, and inflationary data. Annualized real gross domestic product was estimated to grow 6.5% in the last three months of the calendar year. U.S. inflation climbed 6.8% in November, the highest level in nearly 40 years, as strong consumer demand battled ongoing supply constraints. The U.S. unemployment rate fell to 4.2% and initial jobless claims reached a pandemic low. On the fiscal policy front Congress passed additional stimulus in the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act but was not able to gain sufficient support for the Build Back Better Act, which is largely perceived to be dead at this point. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will decrease the monthly asset purchases of Treasury and Mortgage Backed Securities by March 2022. Following the December meeting, 12 of 18 FOMC members expect at least three rate hikes next year.

Credit quality as of December 31, 2021¹

¹ The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of the three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified.

The stock market was on a tear for most of the year with the S&P 500 returning 28.71%.  Fixed income struggled as changes in Fed policy and inflation fears weighed on fixed income and the 10 year Treasury which started the year at 0.91% ended at 1.51%.  According to the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index, municipal bonds returned 1.52% in 2021, outpacing investment-grade corporates, Treasuries, and aggregate bonds. As expected, income drove performance as price returns were negative. Demand for municipal paper helped anchor yields and mitigate much of the volatility witnessed in the U.S. Treasury and corporate fixed-income markets. Municipal-to-Treasury ratios

remained rich as a record $100 billion of investor inflows provided technical support to the municipal bond market. Fundamentals were also supported by fiscal stimulus, which continued to wind its way through to the real economy. Concerns surrounding inflation, economic growth, fiscal policy, infrastructure, and COVID-19 continue to remain in focus.

Allocations to A-rated and BBB-rated bonds, as well as a modest allocation to high-yield bonds, drove performance.

Overall, the Fund’s credit allocation was the largest driver of performance. Our underweight to high-quality AAA-rated and AA-rated bonds in favor of lower-quality, investment-grade A-rated and BBB-rated bonds was positive as lower-quality, investment-grade bonds outperformed by a wide margin. In addition to providing higher levels of income, both rating categories outperformed higher-quality investment-grade bonds on a price basis, with the BBB rating category the only investment-grade category with positive price performance. Our modest high-yield exposure was also additive as high-yield bonds outperformed high-quality bonds for the year.

Security selection was the second-largest driver of performance. Rigorous credit analysis by our research team sought to identify credits that could benefit the Fund by recognizing opportunities and avoiding pitfalls, especially for credits that were tied to the reopening of the economy. Relative-value trading also sought to enhance performance as we optimized buys and sells in certain issuers.

Duration positioning was a modest contributor to performance. While we moved duration around within a narrow band during the period to take advantage of anticipated seasonal opportunities, our overall short position was positive as price returns were negative for the period.

Effective maturity distribution as of December 31, 2021¹

¹ Figures represent the percentage of the Fund's long-term investments. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified.

A strong technical backdrop and demand may benefit municipal bonds.

Absent a significant increase in Treasury rates, municipal bonds should benefit in the first couple months of the year from the strong technical backdrop with limited tax-exempt supply and continued strong demand. It will be a challenge to meet or exceed the record level of inflows experienced in 2021, but we do expect demand for municipals to remain solid due to the favorable credit and higher recovery rates compared with other fixed-income asset classes. We also expect the extraordinary fiscal support provided to municipals to continue to work its way through the economy and provide credit support. The passage of some version of the Biden Economic Agenda in the form of the Build Back Better bill could also provide support for municipals.

We expect the Federal Reserve to raise rates, with the actual number of times largely data dependent with a focus on inflation, supply chain issues, and COVID-19. Municipals have historically outperformed other fixed-income asset classes in a rising-rate environment, and we expect that to continue. However, actual returns could be more modest than in recent years. Security selection and sector rotation will continue to be keys in driving returns for 2022 as we navigate rich municipal-to-Treasury ratios, tight credit spreads, and a potentially volatile rates market.

Fund expenses (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021.

Actual expenses

The “Actual” line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the “Actual” line under the heading entitled “Expenses paid during period” for your applicable class of shares to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The “Hypothetical” line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the “Hypothetical” line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

	Beginning account value 7-1-2021	Ending account value 12-31-2021	Expenses paid during the period1	Annualized net expense ratio
Actual	$1,000.00	$1,007.32	$0.00*	0.00%*
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)	$1,000.00	$1,025.21	$0.00*	0.00%*

¹ Expenses paid is equal to the annualized net expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year divided by the number of days in the fiscal year (to reflect the one-half-year period).

*  Generally, no ordinary fees or expenses are charged to the Fund. Allspring Funds Management, LLC has contractually committed to irrevocably absorb and pay or reimburse all ordinary operating expenses of the Fund, except portfolio transactions or other investment related costs (e.g., commissions), fees payable for services provided by the Fund’s securities lending agent (if any), interest, taxes, leverage expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. This commitment has an indefinite term.

Notes to financial statements

1. ORGANIZATION

Allspring Funds Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on March 10, 1999, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Allspring Managed Account CoreBuilder Shares - Series M (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.

The Fund is a special purpose municipal bond fund that is used in combination with selected individual securities to effectively model institutional-level investment strategies. The Fund is intended to help enable certain separately managed account investors to achieve greater diversification than small managed accounts might otherwise achieve.

Effective on November 1, 2021, the sale transaction of Wells Fargo Asset Management ("WFAM") by Wells Fargo & Company to GTCR LLC and Reverence Capital Partners, L.P. was closed. In connection with the closing of the transaction, WFAM became known as Allspring Global Investments (“Allspring”) and various entities that provided services to the Fund changed their names to "Allspring", including Allspring Funds Management, LLC, the investment manager to the Fund, Allspring Global Investments, LLC and Allspring Global Investments (UK) Limited, both registered investment advisers providing subadvisory services to certain funds, and Allspring Funds Distributor, LLC. Consummation of the transaction resulted in a new investment management agreement and subadvisory agreement became effective on November 1, 2021.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Fund, are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Securities valuation

All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.

Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service (e.g. taking into account various factors, including yields, maturities, or credit ratings) or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.

Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.

Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Allspring Global Investments Pricing Committee at Allspring Funds Management, LLC ("Allspring Funds Management"). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Allspring Global Investments Pricing Committee which may include items for ratification.

When-issued transactions

The Fund may purchase securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis. The Fund records a when-issued transaction on the trade date and will segregate assets in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund's commitment to purchase when-issued securities. Securities purchased on a when-issued basis are marked-to-market daily and the Fund begins earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

Security transactions and income recognition

Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.

Interest income is accrued daily and bond discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized daily. To the extent debt obligations are placed on non-accrual status, any related interest income may be reduced by writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures

Allspring Managed Account  |  35

Notes to financial statements

and the fair value has decreased. If the issuer subsequently resumes interest payments or when the collectability of interest is reasonably assured, the debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status.

Distributions to shareholders

Distributions to shareholders from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date and paid at least annually. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund's fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund's distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital at year end.

Federal and other taxes

The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its investment company taxable and tax-exempt income and any net realized capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required.

The Fund’s income and federal excise tax returns and all financial records supporting those returns for the prior three fiscal years are subject to examination by the federal and Delaware revenue authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

As of December 31, 2021, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $844,035,596 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:

Gross unrealized gains	$57,799,577
Gross unrealized losses	(2,613,925)
Net unrealized gains	$55,185,652

As of December 31, 2021, the Fund had capital loss carryforwards which consisted of $9,762,169 in short-term capital losses and $5,459,591 in long-term capital losses.

3. FAIR VALUATION MEASUREMENTS

Fair value measurements of investments are determined within a framework that has established a fair value hierarchy based upon the various data inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. The three-level hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The Fund’s investments are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs are summarized into three broad levels as follows:

■ Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

■ Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

■ Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

36  |  Allspring Managed Account

Notes to financial statements

The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2021:

	Quoted prices (Level 1)	Other significant observable inputs (Level 2)	Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)	Total
Assets
Investments in:
Closed end municipal bond fund obligations	$ 0	$ 2,000,000	$0	$ 2,000,000
Municipal obligations	0	885,554,889	0	885,554,889
Short-term investments
Investment companies	11,666,359	0	0	11,666,359
Total assets	$11,666,359	$887,554,889	$0	$899,221,248

Additional sector, industry or geographic detail, if any, is included in the Portfolio of Investments.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 3.

4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Trust has entered into an investment management contract with Allspring Funds Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of Allspring Global Investments Holdings, LLC, a holding company indirectly owned by certain private funds of GTCR LLC and Reverence Capital Partners, L.P. The manager is responsible for implementing investment policies and guidelines and for supervising the subadviser, who is responsible for day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. For providing these services, Allspring Funds Management does not receive a fee from the Fund but is entitled to receive fees from separately managed account sponsors of the wrap-fee programs. Out of these fees, Alllspring Funds Management pays Allspring Global Invesments, LLC, an affiliate of Allspring Funds Management and a wholly owned subsidiary of Allspring Global Investments Holdings, LLC, for its services as the subadviser to the Fund.

Generally, no ordinary operating fees or expenses are charged to the Fund. Allspring Funds Management has contractually committed to irrevocably absorb and pay or reimburse all ordinary operating expenses of the Fund, except portfolio transactions or other investment-related costs (e.g., commissions), fees payable for services provided by the Fund’s securities lending agent (if any), interest, taxes, leverage expenses, and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. This commitment has an indefinite term.

Interfund transactions

The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $0, $7,275,000 and $0 in interfund purchases, sales and net realized gains (losses), respectively, during the year ended December 31, 2021.

5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $132,773,210 and $75,431,619, respectively.

6. BANK BORROWINGS

The Trust (excluding the money market funds), Allspring Master Trust and Allspring Variable Trust are parties to a $350,000,000 revolving credit agreement whereby the Fund is permitted to use bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes, such as to fund shareholder redemption requests. Interest under the credit agreement is charged to the Fund based on a borrowing rate equal to the higher of the Federal Funds rate in effect on that day plus 1.25% or the overnight bank funding rate in effect on that day plus 1.25%. In addition, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.

Notes to financial statements

7. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

The tax character of distributions paid was $27,407,495 and $27,496,579 of tax-exempt income for the years ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

As of December 31, 2021, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax-exempt income	Unrealized gains	Capital loss carryforward
$2,403,544	$55,185,652	$(15,221,760)

8. CONCENTRATION RISK

Concentration risk exists when a shareholder owns a large amount of shares of the Fund. A fund with a concentration of ownership may be more affected by the investment activity of those shareholders than would be a fund that does not have any ownership concentration. As of December 31, 2021, two unaffiliated shareholders owned in aggregate 51% of the Fund.

9. INDEMNIFICATION

Under the Fund's organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. The Fund has entered into a separate agreement with each Trustee that converts indemnification rights currently existing under the Fund’s organizational documents into contractual rights that cannot be changed in the future without the consent of the Trustee. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts with service providers that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated.

10. CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) PANDEMIC

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization announced that it had made the assessment that coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) is a pandemic. The impacts of COVID-19 are affecting the entire global economy, individual companies and investment products, the funds, and the market in general. There is significant uncertainty around the extent and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19 and the impacts may last for an extended period of time. COVID-19 has led to significant uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

To the Shareholders of the Fund and Board of Trustees
Allspring Funds Trust:

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Allspring Managed Account CoreBuilder Shares - Series M (formerly, Wells Fargo Managed Account CoreBuilder Shares - Series M) (the Fund), one of the funds constituting Allspring Funds Trust (formerly, Wells Fargo Funds Trust), including the portfolio of investments, as of December 31, 2021, the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the related notes (collectively, the financial statements) and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2021, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Such procedures also included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2021, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have not been able to determine the specific year that we began serving as the auditor of one or more Allspring Funds investment companies; however, we are aware that we have served as the auditor of one or more Allspring Funds investment companies since at least 1955.

2	Generally, no ordinary fees or expenses are charged to the Fund. Allspring Funds Management, LLC has contractually committed to irrevocably absorb and pay or reimburse all ordinary operating expenses of the Fund, except portfolio transactions or other investment related costs (e.g., commissions), fees payable for services provided by the Fund’s securities lending agent (if any), interest, taxes, leverage expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. This commitment has an indefinite term.
3	The Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of long-term tax-exempt bonds with a minimum credit rating of Baa. You cannot invest directly in an index.

Figures quoted represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results, and do not reflect taxes that a shareholder may pay on an investment in a fund. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted, which assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Current month-end performance is available by calling 1-888-877-9275.

Index returns do not include transaction costs associated with buying and selling securities, any mutual fund fees or expenses, or any taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

Shares are sold without a front-end sales charge or contingent deferred sales charge.

Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the Fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This fund is exposed to high-yield securities risk and municipal securities risk. Consult the Fund’s prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. A portion of the Fund’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the alternative minimum tax. Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.

CoreBuilder Shares are a series of investment options within the separately managed accounts advised or subadvised by Allspring Funds Management, LLC. The shares are fee-waived mutual funds that enable certain separately managed account investors to achieve greater diversification than smaller managed accounts might otherwise achieve.

Investing in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) carries the risk that, under certain market conditions, the investments may underperform products that invest in a broader array of investments. In addition, some ESG investments may be dependent on government tax incentives and subsidies and on political support for certain environmental technologies and companies. The ESG sector also may have challenges such as a limited number of issuers and liquidity in the market, including a robust secondary market. Investing primarily in responsible investments carries the risk that, under certain market conditions, an investment may underperform funds that do not use a responsible investment strategy.

MANAGER'S DISCUSSION

Fund highlights

■ The Fund underperformed the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index for the period from May 26, 2021 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2021. The first half of the period was spent getting the Fund invested with most of the holdings in variable-rate demand bonds. Once fully invested, the Fund generally performed in line with the benchmark.

■ The duration profile varied over the period the Fund was invested and was a detractor relative to the benchmark.

■ Contributors to performance include an overweight to A-rated and BBB-rated bonds and small out-of-benchmark exposure to nonrated bonds, which both outperformed. An overweight to revenue bonds also contributed.

Inflation and the Omicron variant drove performance.

The first 3 months of the period began with annualized rates of inflation being elevated. The spread of the Delta variant appeared to dampen the initial price pressures from reopening, suggesting the spike in inflation might have peaked. The U.S. unemployment rate fell to 5.2% and initial jobless claims reached a pandemic low. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) held rates steady and maintained its pace of monthly asset purchases. However, the committee took a more hawkish tone and offered comments that tapering could begin in November. Initially, the fate of the $1 trillion U.S. infrastructure deal remained uncertain as congressional infighting persisted surrounding the terms and scope of the plan. Ultimately, the deal was signed into law in November.

The last 4 months of the period was characterized by volatile U.S. markets as consumers weighed positive unemployment and growth trends against fears surrounding the latest Omicron variant of COVID-19 cases, supply chain disruptions, and inflationary data. Annualized real gross domestic product was estimated to grow 6.5% in the last three months of the calendar year. U.S. inflation climbed 6.8% in November, the highest level in nearly 40 years, as strong consumer demand battled ongoing supply constraints. The U.S. unemployment rate fell to 4.2% and initial jobless claims reached a pandemic low. The FOMC will decrease the monthly asset purchases of Treasury and Mortgage Backed Securities by March 2022. Following the December meeting, 12 of 18 FOMC members expect at least three rate hikes next year.

Demand for municipal paper anchored yields and helped mitigate much of the volatility witnessed in the U.S. Treasury and corporate fixed-income markets. Municipal-to-Treasury ratios remained rich as a record $100 billion of investor inflows provided technical support to the municipal bond market. Fundamentals were also supported by fiscal stimulus, which continued to wind its way through to the real economy. Concerns surrounding inflation, economic growth, fiscal policy, infrastructure, and COVID-19 continue to remain in focus.

Credit quality as of December 31, 2021¹

¹ The credit quality distribution of portfolio holdings reflected in the chart is based on ratings from Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s Investors Service, and/or Fitch Ratings Ltd. Credit quality ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not to the Fund itself. The percentages of the portfolio with the ratings depicted in the chart are calculated based on the market value of fixed income securities held by the Fund. If a security was rated by all three rating agencies, the middle rating was utilized. If rated by two of the three rating agencies, the lower rating was utilized, and if rated by one of the rating agencies, that rating was utilized. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Ratings from A to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. Standard & Poor’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term notes from SP-1 (highest) to SP-3 (lowest). Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from Aaa (highest) to C (lowest). Ratings Aa to B may be modified by the addition of a number 1 (highest) to 3 (lowest) to show relative standing within the ratings categories. Moody’s rates the creditworthiness of short-term U.S. tax-exempt municipal securities from MIG 1/VMIG 1 (highest) to SG (lowest). Fitch rates the creditworthiness of bonds, ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest). Credit quality distribution is subject to change and may have changed since the date specified.

We used our environmental, social, and governance impact framework to source bonds that provide positive impact as we began the period investing the Fund’s liquidity positions into fixed-rate bonds. Certain revenue sectors are more in alignment with green and social bond principals, which resulted in overweights to the hospital and education sectors. Conversely, there is less alignment in the airport and state general obligation sectors, which resulted in an underweight or no exposure. Overall, the Fund ended the period with a material overweight to revenue bonds and an underweight to general obligation bonds. Valuations were

more expensive in California and New York, which resulted in underweights in those states. Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Illinois provided better opportunities, so the Fund ended the period with an overweight to those states. We positioned the Fund with a neutral-duration profile and targeted purchases in the steeper parts of the yield curve to maximize roll-down opportunities. The Fund ended the period overweight the 5- to 7-year maturity segment and neutral the long-bond segment.

Overweights to BBB-rated bonds and revenue bonds contributed to performance.

An overweight to the best-performing BBB-rated segment and small out-of-benchmark exposure to nonrated bonds contributed to performance. The overweight to the 5- to 7-year maturity segment detracted from performance while the neutral exposure to the long-bond segment contributed. The Fund’s overweight to revenue bonds contributed, with the health care and education subsector overweights outperforming the benchmark.

Effective maturity distribution as of December 31, 2021¹

¹ Figures represent the percentage of the Fund's long-term investments. These amounts are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified.

A strong technical backdrop and demand may benefit municipal bonds.

Absent a significant increase in Treasury rates, municipal bonds should benefit in the first couple months of the year from the strong technical backdrop with limited tax-exempt supply and continued strong demand. It will be a challenge to meet or exceed the record level of inflows experienced in 2021, but we do expect demand for municipals to remain solid due to the favorable credit and higher recovery rates compared with other fixed-income asset classes. We also expect the extraordinary fiscal support provided to municipals to continue to work its way through the economy and provide credit support. The passage of some version of the Biden Economic Agenda in the form of the Build Back Better bill could also provide support for municipals.

We do expect the Federal Reserve to raise rates, with the actual number of times largely data dependent with a focus on inflation, supply chain issues, and COVID-19. Municipals tend to outperform other fixed-income asset classes in a rising-rate environment, and we expect that to continue. However, actual returns could be more modest than in recent years. Security selection and sector rotation will continue to be keys in driving returns for 2022 as we navigate rich municipal-to-Treasury ratios, tight credit spreads, and a potentially volatile rates market. We do expect to continue to source value in lower-rated and select high-yield bonds by using our credit research team.

Fund expenses (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021.

Actual expenses

The “Actual” line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the “Actual” line under the heading entitled “Expenses paid during period” for your applicable class of shares to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes

The “Hypothetical” line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the “Hypothetical” line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

	Beginning account value 7-1-2021	Ending account value 12-31-2021	Expenses paid during the period1	Annualized net expense ratio
Actual	$1,000.00	$ 998.86	$0.00*	0.00%*
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)	$1,000.00	$1,025.21	$0.00*	0.00%*

¹ Expenses paid is equal to the annualized net expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year divided by the number of days in the fiscal year (to reflect the one-half-year period).

*  Generally, no ordinary fees or expenses are charged to the Fund. Allspring Funds Management, LLC has contractually committed to irrevocably absorb and pay or reimburse all ordinary operating expenses of the Fund, except portfolio transactions or other investment related costs (e.g., commissions), fees payable for services provided by the Fund’s securities lending agent (if any), interest, taxes, leverage expenses and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. This commitment has an indefinite term.

Notes to financial statements

1. ORGANIZATION

Allspring Funds Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust organized on March 10, 1999, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). As an investment company, the Trust follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. These financial statements report on the Allspring Managed Account CoreBuilder Shares - Series SM Fund (the “Fund”) which is a diversified series of the Trust.

The Fund is a special purpose fund invested primarily in municipal securities determined to have a positive ESG impact and is intended to be used in combination with selected individual securities to effectively model institutional-level investment strategies. The Fund is intended to help enable certain separately managed account investors to achieve greater diversification than smaller managed accounts might otherwise achieve.

Effective on November 1, 2021, the sale transaction of Wells Fargo Asset Management ("WFAM") by Wells Fargo & Company to GTCR LLC and Reverence Capital Partners, L.P. was closed. In connection with the closing of the transaction, WFAM became known as Allspring Global Investments (“Allspring”) and various entities that provided services to the Fund changed their names to "Allspring", including Allspring Funds Management, LLC, the investment manager to the Fund, Allspring Global Investments, LLC and Allspring Global Investments (UK) Limited, both registered investment advisers providing subadvisory services to certain funds, and Allspring Funds Distributor, LLC.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Fund, are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Securities valuation

All investments are valued each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time), although the Fund may deviate from this calculation time under unusual or unexpected circumstances.

Debt securities are valued at the evaluated bid price provided by an independent pricing service (e.g. taking into account various factors, including yields, maturities, or credit ratings) or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer.

Investments in registered open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.

Investments which are not valued using any of the methods discussed above are valued at their fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees has established a Valuation Committee comprised of the Trustees and has delegated to it the authority to take any actions regarding the valuation of portfolio securities that the Valuation Committee deems necessary or appropriate, including determining the fair value of portfolio securities, unless the determination has been delegated to the Allspring Global Investments Pricing Committee at Allspring Funds Management, LLC ("Allspring Funds Management"). The Board of Trustees retains the authority to make or ratify any valuation decisions or approve any changes to the Valuation Procedures as it deems appropriate. On a quarterly basis, the Board of Trustees receives reports on any valuation actions taken by the Valuation Committee or the Allspring Global Investments Pricing Committee which may include items for ratification.

When-issued transactions

The Fund may purchase securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis. The Fund records a when-issued transaction on the trade date and will segregate assets in an amount at least equal in value to the Fund's commitment to purchase when-issued securities. Securities purchased on a when-issued basis are marked-to-market daily and the Fund begins earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

Security transactions and income recognition

Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses are recorded on the basis of identified cost.

Interest income is accrued daily and bond discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized daily. To the extent debt obligations are placed on non-accrual status, any related interest income may be reduced by writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has been determined to be doubtful based on consistently applied procedures

Allspring Managed Account  |  19

Notes to financial statements

and the fair value has decreased. If the issuer subsequently resumes interest payments or when the collectability of interest is reasonably assured, the debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status.

Distributions to shareholders

Distributions to shareholders from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date and paid at least annually. Such distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations and may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Dividend sources are estimated at the time of declaration. The tax character of distributions is determined as of the Fund's fiscal year end. Therefore, a portion of the Fund's distributions made prior to the Fund’s fiscal year end may be categorized as a tax return of capital at year end.

Federal and other taxes

The Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its investment company taxable and tax-exempt income and any net realized capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes was required.

The Fund’s income and federal excise tax returns and all financial records supporting those returns for the fiscal years since commencement of operations are subject to examination by the federal and Delaware revenue authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state, and foreign tax returns for all open tax years and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

As of December 31, 2021, the aggregate cost of all investments for federal income tax purposes was $25,024,907 and the unrealized gains (losses) consisted of:

Gross unrealized gains	$ 18,954
Gross unrealized losses	(179,679)
Net unrealized losses	$(160,725)

3. FAIR VALUATION MEASUREMENTS

Fair value measurements of investments are determined within a framework that has established a fair value hierarchy based upon the various data inputs utilized in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. The three-level hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The Fund’s investments are classified within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs are summarized into three broad levels as follows:

■ Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

■ Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

■ Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments in securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2021:

	Quoted prices (Level 1)	Other significant observable inputs (Level 2)	Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)	Total
Assets
Investments in:
Municipal obligations	$ 0	$ 24,719,497	$0	$ 24,719,497
Short-term investments
Investment companies	144,685	0	0	144,685
Total assets	$144,685	$24,719,497	$0	$24,864,182

Additional sector, industry or geographic detail, if any, is included in the Portfolio of Investments.

20  |  Allspring Managed Account

Notes to financial statements

For the period from May 26, 2021 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2021, the Fund did not have any transfers into/out of Level 3.

4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Trust has entered into an investment management contract with Allspring Funds Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of Allspring Global Investments Holdings, LLC, a holding company indirectly owned by certain private funds of GTCR LLC and Reverence Capital Partners, L.P. The manager is responsible for implementing investment policies and guidelines and for supervising the subadviser, who is responsible for day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. For providing these services, Allspring Funds Management does not receive a fee from the Fund but is entitled to receive fees from separately managed account sponsors of the wrap-fee programs. Out of these fees, Alllspring Funds Management pays Allspring Global Invesments, LLC, an affiliate of Allspring Funds Management and a wholly owned subsidiary of Allspring Global Investments Holdings, LLC, for its services as the subadviser to the Fund.

Generally, no ordinary operating fees or expenses are charged to the Fund. Allspring Funds Management has contractually committed to irrevocably absorb and pay or reimburse all ordinary operating expenses of the Fund, except portfolio transactions or other investment-related costs (e.g., commissions), fees payable for services provided by the Fund’s securities lending agent (if any), interest, taxes, leverage expenses, and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business. This commitment has an indefinite term.

Interfund transactions

The Fund may purchase or sell portfolio investment securities to certain affiliates pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act and under procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that these interfund transactions, which do not incur broker commissions, are effected at current market prices. Pursuant to these procedures, the Fund had $17,350,000, $4,650,000 and $0 in interfund purchases, sales and net realized gains (losses), respectively, during the period from May 26, 2021 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2021.

5. INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding U.S. government obligations (if any) and short-term securities, for the period from May 26, 2021 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2021 were $28,163,046 and $3,018,670, respectively.

6. BANK BORROWINGS

The Trust (excluding the money market funds), Allspring Master Trust and Allspring Variable Trust are parties to a $350,000,000 revolving credit agreement whereby the Fund is permitted to use bank borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes, such as to fund shareholder redemption requests. Interest under the credit agreement is charged to the Fund based on a borrowing rate equal to the higher of the Federal Funds rate in effect on that day plus 1.25% or the overnight bank funding rate in effect on that day plus 1.25%. In addition, an annual commitment fee equal to 0.25% of the unused balance is allocated to each participating fund.

For the period from May 26, 2021 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2021, there were no borrowings by the Fund under the agreement.

7. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

The tax character of distributions paid for the period from May 26, 2021 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2021 was $3,905 of ordinary income and $140,664 of tax-exempt income.

As of December 31, 2021, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax-exempt income	Unrealized losses
$1,467	$(160,725)

8. CONCENTRATION RISK

Concentration risk exists when a shareholder owns a large amount of shares of the Fund. A fund with a concentration of ownership may be more affected by the investment activity of those shareholders than would be a fund that does not have any ownership concentration. As of December 31, 2021, Allspring owned 100% of the Fund.

Allspring Managed Account  |  21

Notes to financial statements

9. INDEMNIFICATION

Under the Fund's organizational documents, the officers and Trustees have been granted certain indemnification rights against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. The Fund has entered into a separate agreement with each Trustee that converts indemnification rights currently existing under the Fund’s organizational documents into contractual rights that cannot be changed in the future without the consent of the Trustee. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts with service providers that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be estimated.

10. CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) PANDEMIC

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization announced that it had made the assessment that coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) is a pandemic. The impacts of COVID-19 are affecting the entire global economy, individual companies and investment products, the funds, and the market in general. There is significant uncertainty around the extent and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19 and the impacts may last for an extended period of time. COVID-19 has led to significant uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets.
