Management's Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)

The total return of Federated International Bond Strategy Portfolio (the “Fund”), based on net asset value for the 12-month reporting period ended November 30, 2016, was 5.16%. The total return of the Fund's blended benchmark (Blended Index)¹ was 5.87% for the same period. The performance of the Bloomberg Barclays Emerging Markets USD Aggregate Index (BBEMAI),² the Fund's broad-based securities market index, was 7.12%. The Fund's total return for the most recently completed fiscal year reflected actual cash flows, transaction costs and other expenses which were not reflected in the total return of the BBEMAI or the Blended Index.

The Fund's investment strategy focused on three central factors which helped define the Fund's performance relative to the Blended Index: (1) the currency denomination of the selected securities; (2) the effective duration³ of the portfolio and yield curve;⁴ and (3) country selection.⁵ These market elements were the most significant factors affecting the Fund's performance relative to the Blended Index.

MARKET OVERVIEW

During the reporting period, a host of traditional economic forces helped to define global financial markets. Oil volatility, Chinese economic uncertainty, European Union (EU) deflationary threats, and U.S. monetary expectations all forged a hand in shaping global risk premiums. However, if one had to describe just one subject that best summarized global markets in 2016, it could probably be achieved with just one word: “geopolitics.” The U.K. opting to end its membership in the EU (“Brexit”) and the Donald Trump U.S. presidential victory dwarfed practically every other market narrative in 2016.

At the start of 2016, the world's third largest economy, Japan, unhinged global markets when it introduced negative deposit rates. By doing so, Japan effectively placed itself among the growing number of countries where investors now pay governments to buy their bonds. Ongoing concern over supply imbalances in oil inventories added to the turmoil, and sent WTI valuations reeling lower early in the quarter. The unprecedented volatility in oil prices provided yet another incentive for investors to continue to reduce their equity holdings. At the crest of the deleveraging, most global equity markets were down in excess of 11%. Global government bond markets were on the receiving end of this equity sell-off, and benefited from the general flight to safety.

The reporting period also saw political transition, and its attendant hope/expectation of political reform, support bond prices in Brazil and Argentina. The expectation that more rational executive and legislative decision making will drive the upcoming years in these countries led to the hopes that controlled inflation, credit growth and external investment would be the prevalent factors in the short-to-long-term. As Brazil showed signs of political stability, there was hope that its central bank could once again resume an accommodative monetary policy. Argentina appeared primed, through political reform and resolution of the holdout crisis, to open its doors and industries to external investment. The situation in Venezuela remained more complex, but with asset prices having started the year at depressed levels, the hints of a populist overtake of President Maduro allowed the deep resource values of the country to become a focal point of international investors. This helped lead to flows into Venezuelan bonds.

Away from Latin America, China growth worries, which were once front and center of all emerging market investors, abated over the reporting period. At the March National People's Congress meeting, the government announced its intention to keep GDP growth at a minimum of 6.5%. This was followed by a series of pro-growth monetary and fiscal measures, which have ensured the 2016 minimum growth target is kept on track. In the face of such strong government commitment to its growth target, at the expense of an increase in inefficient government expenditure and the creation of asset bubbles on the back of monetary stimulus, a hard landing should be avoided.

In the early summer months of 2016, markets were riddled with volatility, and the bulk of the instability was a byproduct of the U.K. referendum vote to either leave or remain in the EU. Lurking in the shadow of Brexit, economic data among the developed economies was generally tepid, and despite the run-up in oil prices, disinflationary pressures remained stubbornly anchored. With all the uncertainty looming around the U.K., most major central banks wisely adopted a “wait and see” posture, and kept their mandates unchanged. The wave of uncertainty further galvanized the demand for secure investment vehicles, and nowhere was this more evidenced than in the safety of developed government bonds.

Soon after the U.K.'s decision to opt out of the EU, it grew clear to many that the result would not necessarily translate into systematic financial shock. Accordingly, most developed equity markets reaped healthy gains. Additionally, both the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan refrained from major changes to their respective monetary programs. Ironically, the sheer absence of additional stimulus began to fuel conclusions that the era of endless quantitative easing was possibly coming to an end. Consequently, benchmark yields in most developed bond markets began to rise in the late summer months of the reporting period.

Defying nearly all predictions, Donald Trump secured the nomination for President of the United States in the closing days of the reporting period. Trump's nomination fueled a rise to the U.S. dollar and yields on promises of massive fiscal spending and tax reform. The combination of nationalism, reflation and deregulation were also seen as good for U.S. equities and the U.S. dollar. However, the news was not so kind to U.S. Treasuries, and to global yields in general. In the days that followed the election, and lead by the U.S. treasury market, global yields began to rise materially.

CURRENCY DENOMINATION

The most influential factor affecting the Fund's performance during the reporting period was the currency denomination of the selected securities. Early in the reporting period, removal of a substantial overweight allocation to the U.S. dollar greatly benefited performance relative to the Blended Index, as the U.S. dollar began to weaken against a host of currencies. At the onset of the Fund's fiscal year, an overweight allocation to the Japanese yen, relative to the Blended Index, helped Fund performance. As the reporting period progressed, Japanese yen appreciation appeared excessive and unsustainable. Consequently, the Fund's overweight allocation to the yen was reduced to an underweight. Soon after, the Trump U.S. presidential victory catalyzed a sizable sell-off in the Japanese currency and helped to enhance Fund performance.

DURATION and yield curve

The effective duration of the portfolio also played a sizable role in the Fund's performance. The Fund's weighted average duration at the end of the reporting period was 4.13 years. Fund duration is effectively the Fund's sensitivity to movements in interest rates; the lower the duration the less the net asset value of the fund will fluctuate due to changes in interest rates. The Fund generally maintained an underweight allocation relative to the Blended Index throughout the reporting period. The composition of duration generally favored European peripheral countries, mainly Spain. In contrast, the Fund had a lower duration sensitivity to countries with negative interest rates, namely Germany and Japan. On the basis that investors were not being compensated adequately for the inherent volatility of long dated bonds, the Fund was generally underweight 30-year Japanese government bonds. Yield curve selection, however, was a primary detractor from performance.

COUNTRY SELECTION

During the reporting period, an overweight allocation to Sweden detracted from Fund performance relative to the Blended Index, as did allocations to Venezuela. Lastly the Fund's active management of commodity-linked countries, namely in Canada and Norway, benefited overall Fund performance.

1	The Blended Index is a custom blended index comprised of 50% of the Bloomberg Barclays Emerging Markets USD Aggregate Index and 50% of the J.P. Morgan Global (ex-U.S.) Government Bond Index. Please see the footnotes to the line graphs under “Fund Performance and Growth of a $10,000 Investment” below for the definition of, and more information about, the Blended Index.
2	Please see the footnotes to the line graphs under “Fund Performance and Growth of a $10,000 Investment” below for the definition of, and more information about, the BBEMAI.
3	Duration is a measure of a security's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities of shorter durations.
4	Bond prices are sensitive to changes in interest rates, and a rise in interest rates can cause a decline in their prices.
5	International investing involves special risks including currency risk, increased volatility, political risks and differences in auditing and other financial standards. Prices of emerging market securities can be significantly more volatile than the prices of securities in developed countries, and currency risk and political risks are accentuated in emerging markets.

1

Represents a hypothetical investment of $10,000 in the Fund. The Fund's performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions. The BBEMAI and the JPMGXUS have been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends on securities in the indexes.

2

The BBEMAI tracks total returns for external-currency-denominated debt instruments of the emerging markets. Effective August 24, 2016, the name of the “Barclays Emerging Markets USD Aggregate Index” changed to “Bloomberg Barclays Emerging Markets USD Aggregate Index.” The JPMGXUS is a broad measure of bond performance in developed countries, excluding the U.S. The indexes are not adjusted to reflect sales loads, expenses or other fees that the Securities and Exchange Commission requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The indexes are unmanaged and, unlike the Fund, are not affected by cash flows. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

TOTAL	100.0%	100.0%

1	The fixed-income securities of some issuers may not be denominated in the currency of the issuer's designated country. Therefore, the two columns above “Country Exposure as a Percentage of Total Net Assets” and “Currency Exposure as a Percentage of Total Net Assets” may not be equal.
2	This column depicts the Fund's exposure to various countries through its investment in foreign fixed-income securities, along with the Fund's holdings of cash equivalents and other assets and liabilities. With respect to foreign corporate fixed-income securities, country allocations are based primarily on the country in which the issuing company has registered the security. However, the Fund's Adviser may allocate the company to a country based on other factors such as the location of the company's head office, the jurisdiction of the company's incorporation, the location of the principal trading market for the company's securities or the country from which a majority of the company's revenue is derived.
3	As of the date specified above, the Fund owned shares of one or more affiliated investment companies. For purposes of this table, the affiliated investment company (other than an affiliated money market fund) is not treated as a single portfolio security, but rather the Fund is treated as owning a pro rata portion of each security and each other asset and liability owned by the affiliated investment company. Accordingly, the percentages of total net assets shown in the table will differ from those presented on the Portfolio of Investments.
4	This column depicts the Fund's exposure to various currencies through its investment in foreign fixed-income securities, currency derivative contracts and foreign exchange contracts (which for purposes of this report includes any currency options sold by the Fund and currency forward contracts).
5	Cash Equivalents include any investments in money market mutual funds and/or overnight repurchase agreements. This does not include cash held in the Fund that is denominated in foreign currencies. See the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for information regarding the Fund's foreign cash position.
6	Represents less than 0.1%.
7	Based upon net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) or value of the derivative contracts as applicable. Derivative contracts may consist of futures, forwards, options and swaps. The impact of a derivative contract on the Fund's performance may be larger than its unrealized appreciation (depreciation) or value may indicate. In many cases, the notional value or amount of a derivative contract may provide a better indication of the contract's significance to the portfolio. More complete information regarding the Fund's direct investment in derivative contracts, including unrealized appreciation (depreciation), value and notional values or amounts of such contracts, can be found in the table at the end of the Portfolio of Investments included in this Report.
8	Assets, other than investments in securities and derivative contracts, less liabilities. See Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

At November 30, 2016, these restricted securities amounted to $524,392, which represented 4.1% of total net assets.
2	Denotes a restricted security that may be resold without restriction to “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 and that the Fund has determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”). At November 30, 2016, these liquid restricted securities amounted to $524,392, which represented 4.1% of total net assets.
3	Affiliated holding.
4	The cost of investments for federal tax purposes amounts to $13,494,299.
5	Assets, other than investments in securities, less liabilities. See Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Note: The categories of investments are shown as a percentage of total net assets at November 30, 2016.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Notes to Financial Statements

November 30, 2016

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Managed Pool Series (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of six portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated International Bond Strategy Portfolio (the “Fund”), a non-diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. Each portfolio pays its own expenses. The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve a total return on its assets, by investing primarily in foreign government and corporate bonds in both developed and emerging markets.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Investment Valuation

In calculating its net asset value (NAV), the Fund generally values investments as follows:

■ Shares of other mutual funds or non-exchange-traded investment companies are valued based upon their reported NAVs.

■ Equity securities listed on an exchange or traded through a regulated market system are valued at their last reported sale price or official closing price in their principal exchange or market.

■ Fixed-income securities are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.

■ Derivative contracts listed on exchanges are valued at their reported settlement or closing price, except that options are valued at the mean of closing bid and asked quotations.

■ Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.

■ For securities that are fair valued in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: the last traded or purchase price of the security, information obtained by contacting the issuer or dealers, analysis of the issuer's financial statements or other available documents, fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, the movement of the market in which the security is normally traded, public trading in similar securities or derivative contracts of the issuer or comparable issuers, movement of a relevant index, or other factors including but not limited to industry changes and relevant government actions.

If any price, quotation, price evaluation or other pricing source is not readily available when the NAV is calculated, or if the Fund cannot obtain price evaluations from a pricing service or from more than one dealer for an investment within a reasonable period of time as set forth in the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, the Fund uses the fair value of the investment determined in accordance with the procedures described below. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it sold the investment at approximately the time at which the Fund determines its NAV per share.

Fair Valuation and Significant Events Procedures

The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for determining the fair value of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have appointed a valuation committee (“Valuation Committee”) comprised of officers of the Fund, Federated Investment Management Company (“Adviser”) and certain of the Adviser's affiliated companies to assist in determining fair value and in overseeing the calculation of the NAV. The Trustees have also authorized the use of pricing services recommended by the Valuation Committee to provide fair value evaluations of the current value of certain investments for purposes of calculating the NAV. The Valuation Committee employs various methods for reviewing third-party pricing-service evaluations including periodic reviews of third-party pricing services' policies, procedures and valuation methods (including key inputs, methods, models and assumptions), transactional back-testing, comparisons of evaluations of different pricing services and review of price challenges by the Adviser based on recent market activity. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the Valuation Committee determines the fair value of the investment in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees. The Trustees periodically review and approve the fair valuations made by the Valuation Committee and any changes made to the procedures.

Factors considered by pricing services in evaluating an investment include the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions. Some pricing services provide a single price evaluation reflecting the bid-side of the market for an investment (a “bid” evaluation). Other pricing services offer both bid evaluations and price evaluations indicative of a price between the prices bid and asked for the investment (a “mid” evaluation). The Fund normally uses bid evaluations for any U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities. The Fund normally uses mid evaluations for any other types of fixed-income securities and any OTC derivative contracts. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the fair value of the investment is determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees.

Annual Shareholder Report

14

The Trustees also have adopted procedures requiring an investment to be priced at its fair value whenever the Adviser determines that a significant event affecting the value of the investment has occurred between the time as of which the price of the investment would otherwise be determined and the time as of which the NAV is computed. An event is considered significant if there is both an affirmative expectation that the investment's value will change in response to the event and a reasonable basis for quantifying the resulting change in value. Examples of significant events that may occur after the close of the principal market on which a security is traded, or after the time of a price evaluation provided by a pricing service or a dealer, include:

■ With respect to securities traded principally in foreign markets, significant trends in U.S. equity markets or in the trading of foreign securities index futures contracts;

■ Political or other developments affecting the economy or markets in which an issuer conducts its operations or its securities are traded;

■ Announcements concerning matters such as acquisitions, recapitalizations, litigation developments or a natural disaster affecting the issuer's operations or regulatory changes or market developments affecting the issuer's industry.

The Trustees have adopted procedures whereby the Valuation Committee uses a pricing service to determine the fair value of equity securities traded principally in foreign markets when the Adviser determines that there has been a significant trend in the U.S. equity markets or in index futures trading. For other significant events, the Fund may seek to obtain more current quotations or price evaluations from alternative pricing sources. If a reliable alternative pricing source is not available, the Fund will determine the fair value of the investment in accordance with the fair valuation procedures approved by the Trustees. The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for any fair valuations made in response to a significant event.

Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may invest in repurchase agreements for short-term liquidity purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to require the other party to a repurchase agreement to transfer to the Fund's custodian or sub-custodian eligible securities or cash with a market value (after transaction costs) at least equal to the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement. The eligible securities are transferred to accounts with the custodian or sub-custodian in which the Fund holds a “securities entitlement” and exercises “control” as those terms are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code. The Fund has established procedures for monitoring the market value of the transferred securities and requiring the transfer of additional eligible securities if necessary to equal at least the repurchase price. These procedures also allow the other party to require securities to be transferred from the account to the extent that their market value exceeds the repurchase price or in exchange for other eligible securities of equivalent market value.

The insolvency of the other party or other failure to repurchase the securities may delay the disposition of the underlying securities or cause the Fund to receive less than the full repurchase price. Under the terms of the repurchase agreement, any amounts received by the Fund in excess of the repurchase price and related transaction costs must be remitted to the other party.

The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements in which eligible securities are transferred into joint trading accounts maintained by the custodian or sub-custodian for investment companies and other clients advised by the Fund's Adviser and its affiliates. The Fund will participate on a pro rata basis with the other investment companies and clients in its share of the securities transferred under such repurchase agreements and in its share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of such securities.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified-cost basis. Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions of net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually. Foreign dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date or when the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Amortization/accretion of premium and discount is included in investment income. During part of the fiscal year, the Fund invested in Emerging Markets Fixed Income Core Fund (EMCORE), a portfolio of Federated Core Trust II, L.P., which was a limited partnership established under the laws of the state of Delaware. The Fund recorded its daily proportionate share of income, expenses, realized and unrealized gains and losses from EMCORE. The detail of the total fund expense waiver and reimbursement of $226,069 is disclosed in various locations in this Note 2 and Note 5.

For the year ended November 30, 2016, an unaffiliated third-party waived $9,597 of portfolio accounting fees.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the Subchapter M provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is necessary. As of and during the year ended November 30, 2016, the Fund did not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of November 30, 2016, tax years 2013 through 2016 remain subject to examination by the Fund's major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

The Fund may be subject to taxes imposed by governments of countries in which it invests. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or repatriated. The Fund accrues and applies such taxes to net investment income, net realized gains and net unrealized gains as income and/or gains are earned.

When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed-delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Fund may enter into foreign exchange contracts for the delayed delivery of securities or foreign currency exchange transactions. The Fund may enter into foreign exchange contracts to protect assets against adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations. Purchased contracts are used to acquire exposure to foreign currencies, whereas, contracts to sell are used to hedge the Fund's securities against currency fluctuations. Risks may arise upon entering into these transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their commitments and from unanticipated movements in security prices or foreign exchange rates. The foreign exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the settlement date.

Foreign exchange contracts are subject to Master Netting Agreements (MNA) which are agreements between the Fund and its counterparties that provide for the net settlement of all transactions and collateral with the Fund, through a single payment, in the event of default or termination. Amounts presented on the Portfolio of Investments and Statement of Assets and Liabilities are not net settlement amounts but gross.

Foreign exchange contracts outstanding at period end, including net unrealized appreciation/depreciation or net settlement amounts, are listed after the Fund's Portfolio of Investments.

The average value at settlement date payable and receivable of foreign exchange contracts purchased and sold by the Fund throughout the period was $262,788 and $298,744, respectively. This is based on the contracts held as of each month-end throughout the fiscal year.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies (FCs) are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rates of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange quoted on the respective date that such transactions are recorded. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of FCs, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at period end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

Futures Contracts

The Fund purchases and sells financial futures contracts to manage country and market risk. Upon entering into a financial futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a “variation margin” account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying securities. There is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since futures contracts are exchange traded and the exchange's clearing house, as counterparty to all exchange-traded futures, guarantees the futures contracts against default.

At November 30, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding futures contracts.

Option Contracts

The Fund buys or sells put and call options to increase return and manage market risk. The seller (“writer”) of an option receives a payment or premium, from the buyer, which the writer keeps regardless of whether the buyer exercises the option. When the Fund writes a put or call option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. The Fund, as a writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the underlying reference instrument. When the Fund purchases a put or call option, an amount equal to the premium paid is recorded as an increase to the cost of the investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option purchased. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Premiums received/paid for writing/ purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying reference instrument to determine the realized gain or loss. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Options can trade on securities or commodities exchanges. In this case, the exchange sets all the terms of the contract except for the price. Most exchanges require investors to maintain margin accounts through their brokers to cover their potential obligations to the exchange. This protects investors against potential defaults by the counterparty.

Purchased option contracts outstanding at period end are listed in the Fund's Portfolio of Investments. The average market value of purchased options held by the Fund throughout the period was $3,480. This is based on amounts held as of each month-end throughout the fiscal year.

Restricted Securities

The Fund may purchase securities which are considered restricted. Restricted securities are securities that either: (a) cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, or being able to take advantage of an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act of 1933; or (b) are subject to contractual restrictions on public sales. In some cases, when a security cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, the issuer of the restricted security has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer's expense, either upon demand by the Fund or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many such restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Trustees. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Fund's restricted securities, like other securities, are priced in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees.

As indicated above, certain derivative investments are transacted subject to MNA. These agreements permit the Fund to offset with a counterparty certain derivative payables and/or receivables with collateral held and create one single net payment in the event of default or termination of the agreement by either the Fund or the counterparty. Amounts presented on the Portfolio of Investments and Statement of Assets and Liabilities are not net settlement amounts but gross. As of November 30, 2016, the impact of netting assets and liabilities and the collateral pledged or received based on MNA are detailed below:

Other

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated. The Fund applies Investment Company accounting and reporting guidance.

3. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

The following table summarizes share activity:

Year Ended November 30	2016	2015
Shares sold	146,500	243,482
Shares issued to shareholders in payment of distributions declared	—	317
Shares redeemed	(88,733)	(309,617)
NET CHANGE RESULTING FROM FUND SHARE TRANSACTIONS	57,767	(65,818)

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities and partnership income reclassifications.

For the year ended November 30, 2016, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Undistributed Net Investment Income (Loss)	Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss)
$85,672	$(85,672)

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses) and net assets were not affected by the reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended November 30, 2016 and 2015, was as follows:

	2016	2015
Ordinary income	$—	$488,334
Long-term capital gains	—	$ 48,445

Annual Shareholder Report

18

As of November 30, 2016, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income	$ 526,367
Net unrealized depreciation	$(505,205)
Capital loss carryforwards	$(407,646)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable to differing treatments for the partnership adjustments and discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

At November 30, 2016, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $13,494,299. The net unrealized depreciation of investments for federal tax purposes excluding any unrealized appreciation/depreciation resulting from: (a) the translation of FCs to U.S. dollars of assets and liabilities other than investment in securities; and (b) foreign currency commitments was $503,635. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $111,986 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $615,621.

At November 30, 2016, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $407,646 which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, thereby reducing the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income tax. Pursuant to the Code, a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, retains its character as either short-term or long-term and does not expire. All of the Fund's capital loss carryforwards were incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010.

The following schedule summarizes the Fund's capital loss carryforwards and expiration years:

Expiration Year	Short-Term	Long-Term	Total
No Expiration	$407,646	$—	$407,646

The Fund used capital loss carryforwards of $33,232 to offset capital gains realized during the year ended November 30, 2016.

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

The Adviser provides investment adviser services at no fee, because all eligible investors are: (1) in separately managed or wrap-free programs, who often pay a single aggregate fee to the wrap program sponsor for all costs and expenses of the wrap-free programs; or (2) in certain other separately managed accounts and discretionary investment accounts. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reimburse all expenses of the Fund, excluding extraordinary expenses. Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are not direct obligations of the Fund and are not contractual reimbursements under the investment advisory contract. For the year ended November 30, 2016, the Adviser reimbursed $216,472 of other expenses.

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. For purposes of determining the appropriate rate breakpoint, “Investment Complex” is defined as all of the Federated Funds subject to a fee under the Administrative Services Agreement. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average daily net assets of the Investment Complex as specified below, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses:

Administrative Fee	Average Daily Net Assets of the Investment Complex
0.150%	on the first $5 billion
0.125%	on the next $5 billion
0.100%	on the next $10 billion
0.075%	on assets in excess of $20 billion

FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. For the year ended November 30, 2016, the annualized fee paid to FAS was 0.078% of average daily net assets of the Fund. Fees paid to FAS by the Fund were reimbursed by the Adviser.

General

Certain Officers and Trustees of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of certain of the above companies. To efficiently facilitate payment, Directors'/Trustees' fees and certain expenses related to conducting meetings of the Directors/Trustees and other miscellaneous expenses are paid by an affiliate of the Adviser which in due course is reimbursed by the Fund. Such expenses may be included in Accrued and Miscellaneous Expenses on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations, respectively.

Transactions Involving Affiliated Holdings

Affiliated holdings are investment companies which are managed by the Adviser or an affiliate of the Adviser. Transactions involving the affiliated holdings during the year ended November 30, 2016, were as follows:

	Emerging Markets Fixed Income Core Fund	Emerging Markets Core Fund
Balance of Shares Held 11/30/2015	191,298	—
Purchases/Additions	6,406	777,313
Sales/Reductions	(197,704)	(183,911)

Value	$—	$5,868,749
Allocated Investment Income	$224,883	$130,720

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Fund invests in a portfolio of Federated Core Trust (“Core Trust”), which is managed by the Adviser. Core Trust is an open-end management company, registered under the Act, available only to registered investment companies and other institutional investors. The investment objective of Emerging Markets Core Fund (“EMCOR”), a portfolio of Core Trust, is to achieve a total return on its assets. EMCOR's secondary objective is to achieve a high level of income. Distributions of net investment income from EMCOR are declared daily and paid monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, from EMCOR are declared and paid annually, and are recorded by the Fund as capital gains. Federated Investors Inc. (“Federated”) receives no advisory or administrative fees from EMCOR. A copy of the EMCOR financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's website or upon request from the Fund.

Additionally, as reflected above in Note 2 under Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions, the Fund invested in EMCORE, a portfolio of Federated Core Trust II, L.P. (Core Trust II), which was managed by Federated Investment Counseling, an affiliate of the Adviser. Core Trust II was a limited partnership registered under the Act, available only to registered investment companies and other institutional investors. On June 17, 2016, EMCORE was converted to Emerging Markets Core Fund, switching from a partnership structure to a regulated investment company structure. The primary investment objective of EMCORE was to achieve a total return on its assets. Its secondary investment objective was to achieve a high level of income. It pursued these objectives by investing primarily in a portfolio of emerging market fixed-income securities. Federated received no advisory or administrative fees from Core Trust II. The performance of the Fund was directly affected by the performance of Core Trust II. A copy of Core Trust II's financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's website or upon request from the Fund.

6. Investment TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations, for the year ended November 30, 2016, were as follows:

Purchases	$4,898,896
Sales	$3,994,035

7. INTERFUND LENDING

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by SEC, the Fund, along with other funds advised by subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc., may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from other participating affiliated funds. As of November 30, 2016, there were no outstanding loans. During the year ended November 30, 2016, the program was not utilized.

8. LINE OF CREDIT

The Fund participates with certain other Federated Funds, on a several basis, in an up to $500,000,000 unsecured, 364-day, committed, revolving line of credit (LOC) agreement. The LOC was made available to finance temporarily the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Fund, failed trades, payment of dividends, settlement of trades and for other short-term, temporary or emergency general business purposes. The Fund cannot borrow under the LOC if an inter-fund loan is outstanding. The Fund's ability to borrow under the LOC also is subject to the limitations of the Act and various conditions precedent that must be satisfied before the Fund can borrow. Loans under the LOC are charged interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest, on any day, of (a) (i) the federal funds effective rate, (ii) the one month London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR), and (iii) 0.0%, plus (b) a margin. The LOC also requires the Fund to pay, quarterly in arrears and at maturity, its pro rata share of a commitment fee based on the amount of the lenders' commitment that has not been utilized. As of November 30, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding loans. During the year ended November 30, 2016, the Fund did not utilize the LOC.

9. Regulatory UPDATES

On October 13, 2016, the SEC amended existing rules intended to modernize reporting and disclosure of information. These amendments relate to Regulation S-X which sets forth the form and content of financial statements. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of adopting these amendments and their impact on the financial statements and accompanying notes.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF trusteeS OF Federated managed pool series AND SHAREHOLDERS OF federated INTERNATIONAL bond Strategy portfolio:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Federated International Bond Strategy Portfolio (the “Fund”) (one of the portfolios constituting Federated Managed Pool Series), including the portfolio of investments, as of November 30, 2016, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. 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 conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2016, by correspondence with the custodian and others. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Federated International Bond Strategy Portfolio, a portfolio of Federated Managed Pool Series, at November 30, 2016, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Shareholder Expense Example (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including to the extent applicable, management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or other service fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to 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. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2016 to November 30, 2016.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

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

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second section 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. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with 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 second section 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 6/1/2016	Ending Account Value 11/30/2016	Expenses Paid During Period1
Actual	$1,000	$986.40	$0.00
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses)	$1,000	$1,025.00	$0.00

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized net expense ratio of 0.00%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/366 (to reflect the one-half-year period). Federated Investment Management Company, the Adviser, has contractually agreed to reimburse all operating expenses excluding extraordinary expenses and expenses allocated from affiliated holdings, incurred by the Fund. This agreement has no fixed term.

Evaluation and Approval of Advisory Contract–May 2016

Federated International Bond Strategy Portfolio (the “Fund”)

Following a review and recommendation of approval by the Fund's independent trustees, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Board”) reviewed and unanimously approved at its May 2016 meetings the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract for an additional one-year term. The Board's decision regarding the contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment after consideration of all of the information received on whether to continue the existing arrangements. The Fund is distinctive in that it is used to implement particular investment strategies that are offered to investors in certain separately managed or wrap fee accounts or programs or certain other discretionary investment accounts, and may also be offered to other Federated funds.

In addition, Federated Investment Management Company (the “Adviser”) does not charge an investment advisory fee for its services although it or its affiliates may receive compensation for managing assets invested in the Fund.

The Board had previously appointed a Senior Officer, whose duties include specified responsibilities relating to the process by which advisory fees are to be charged to a Federated fund. The Senior Officer has the authority to retain consultants, experts, or staff as may be reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of his duties, reports directly to the Board, and may be terminated only with the approval of a majority of the independent members of the Board. The Senior Officer prepared and furnished to the Board an independent, written evaluation that covered topics discussed below (the “Senior Officer's Evaluation”). The Board considered the Senior Officer's Evaluation, along with other information, in deciding to approve the investment advisory contract.

As previously noted, the Adviser does not charge an investment advisory fee for its services; however, the Board did consider compensation and benefits received by the Adviser, including fees received for services provided to the Fund by Federated Investors, Inc. and its affiliates (“Federated”) and research services received by the Adviser from brokers that execute Federated fund trades. The Board is also familiar with and considered judicial decisions concerning allegedly excessive investment advisory fees which have indicated that the following factors may be relevant to an Adviser's fiduciary duty with respect to its receipt of compensation from a fund: the nature and quality of the services provided by an adviser to a fund and its shareholders, including the performance and fees and expenses of the fund and of comparable funds; an adviser's cost of providing the services, including the profitability to an adviser of providing advisory services to a fund; the extent to which an adviser may realize “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger and, if such economies of scale exist, whether they have been shared with a fund and its shareholders or the family of funds; any “fall-out financial benefits” that accrue to an adviser because of its relationship with a fund (including research services received from brokers that execute fund trades and any fees paid to affiliates of an adviser for services rendered to a fund); comparative fee and expense structures, including a comparison of fees paid to an adviser with those paid by similar funds; and the extent of care, conscientiousness and independence with which board members perform their duties and their expertise, including whether they are fully informed about all facts the board deems relevant to its consideration of the Adviser's services and fees. The Board noted that Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements regarding the basis for the Board's approval of the Fund's investment advisory contract generally track the factors listed above. Consistent with these judicial decisions and SEC disclosure requirements, the Board also considered management fees charged to institutional and other clients of the Adviser for what might be viewed as like services. The Board was aware of these factors and was guided by them in its review of the Fund's investment advisory contract to the extent it considered them to be appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.

The Board considered and weighed these circumstances in light of its substantial accumulated experience in governing the Fund and working with Federated on matters relating to the Federated funds, and was assisted in its deliberations by independent legal counsel. Throughout the year and in connection with its May meetings, the Board requested and received substantial and detailed information about the Fund and the Federated organization that was in addition to the extensive materials that comprise and accompany the Senior Officer's Evaluation. Federated provided much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnished additional substantial information in connection with the May meetings at which the Board's formal review of the investment advisory contract occurred. At the May meetings, in addition to meeting in separate sessions of the independent trustees without management present, senior management of the Adviser also met with the independent trustees and their counsel to discuss the materials presented and any other matters thought relevant by the Adviser or the trustees. Between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board also received information on particular matters as the need arose. Thus, the Board's consideration of the investment advisory contract included review of the Senior Officer's Evaluation, accompanying data and additional information covering such matters as: the Adviser's investment philosophy, revenue, profitability, personnel and processes; investment and operating strategies; the Fund's short- and long-term performance (in absolute terms, both on a gross basis and net of expenses, as well as in relationship to its particular investment program and certain competitor or “peer group” funds and/or other benchmarks, as appropriate), and comments on the reasons for performance; the Fund's investment objectives; the Fund's expenses (including the advisory fee itself and the overall expense structure of the Fund, both in absolute terms and relative to similar and/or competing funds, with due

regard for contractual or voluntary expense limitations); the use and allocation of brokerage commissions derived from trading the Fund's portfolio securities (if any); and the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and its affiliates. The Board also considered the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders; the entrepreneurial risk assumed by the Adviser in sponsoring the Fund; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry and market practices; the range of comparable fees for similar funds in the mutual fund industry; the Fund's relationship to the Federated funds which include a comprehensive array of funds with different investment objectives, policies and strategies which are generally available for exchange without the incurrence of additional sales charges; compliance and audit reports concerning the Federated funds and the Federated companies that service them (including communications from regulatory agencies), as well as Federated's responses to any issues raised therein; and relevant developments in the mutual fund industry and how the Federated funds and/or Federated are responding to them. The Board's evaluation process is evolutionary. The criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria change in recognition of changing circumstances in the mutual fund marketplace.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser and the resources of the Adviser and its affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In this regard, the Board evaluated, among other things, the Adviser's personnel, experience, track record, overall reputation and willingness to invest in personnel and infrastructure that benefit the Fund. In addition, the Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board noted the compliance programs of and the compliance-related resources provided to the Fund by the Adviser. The Fund's ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its benchmark index was also deemed to be relevant by the Board as a useful indicator of how the Adviser is executing the Fund's investment program, which in turn was one of the Board's considerations in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Adviser's investment management services were such as to warrant continuation of the investment advisory contract.

The Board was informed by the Adviser that, for the periods covered by the Senior Officer's Evaluation, the Fund outperformed its benchmark index for the five-year period, and underperformed its benchmark index for the one-year and three-year periods. The Board discussed the Fund's performance with the Adviser and recognized the efforts being taken by the Adviser in the context of the other factors considered relevant by the Board.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

Because the Adviser does not charge the Fund an investment advisory fee, the Board does not consider fee comparisons to other mutual funds or other institutional or separate accounts to be relevant to its deliberations.

The Board also received financial information about Federated, including information regarding the compensation and ancillary (or “fall-out”) benefits Federated derived from its relationships with the Federated funds. Because the Adviser does not charge an investment advisory fee for its services, this information generally covered fees received by Federated's subsidiaries for providing other services to the Federated funds under separate contracts (e.g., for serving as the Federated funds' administrator). The information also detailed any indirect benefit Federated may derive from its receipt of research services from brokers who execute Federated fund trades. In addition, the Board considered the fact that, in order for a fund to be competitive in the marketplace, Federated and its affiliates frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and have disclosed to fund investors and/or indicated to the Board their intention to do so in the future, where appropriate. Moreover, the Board receives regular reporting as to the institution, adjustment or elimination of these voluntary waivers. The Board considered Federated's previous reductions in contractual management fees to certain funds in response to the Senior Officer's recommendations.

The Board and the Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated comparing profitability information for Federated to other publicly held fund management companies. In this regard, the Senior Officer concluded that Federated's profit margins did not appear to be excessive. The Senior Officer also noted that Federated appeared financially sound, with the resources to fulfill its obligations under its contracts with the Fund.

The Senior Officer noted that, subject to the comments and recommendations made within the Senior Officer's Evaluation, his observations and the information accompanying the Senior Officer's Evaluation supported a finding by the Board that the management fee for the Fund was reasonable.

The Board based its decision to approve the investment advisory contract on the totality of the circumstances and relevant factors and with a view to past and future long-term considerations. Not all of the factors and considerations identified above were necessarily relevant to the Fund, nor did the Board consider any one of them to be determinative. In particular, due to the unusual nature of the Fund as primarily an internal product with no advisory fee, the Board does not consider the assessment of whether economies of scale would be realized if the Fund were to grow to a sufficient size to be particularly relevant. With respect to the factors that were relevant, the Board's decision to approve the continuation of the contract reflects its determination that Federated's performance and actions provided a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangement.

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)

The total return of Federated Managed Volatility Strategy Portfolio (the “Fund”), based on net asset value for the 12-month reporting period ending November 30, 2016, was 0.08%. The total return of the S&P 500 Index (S& P 500),¹ the Fund's broad-based securities market index, was 8.06% over the period. The Fund's total return reflected actual cash flows, transaction costs and other expenses, which were not reflected in the total return of the S&P 500.

During the reporting period, the Fund's investment performance relative to the S&P 500 was most affected by the futures volatility² overlay strategy.

MARKET OVERVIEW

The reporting period was best categorized as an oscillating market environment caused by multiple macro-economic headlines. The most notable was a response to the increase in the Federal Reserve's target interest rate hike, which caused the S&P 500 to decline -11.75% from December 29 through February 11. Despite the rate-hike, U.S. 10-Year yields³ only increased marginally during the reporting period, boosting bond returns and favoring longer-duration⁴ bonds. U.S. equities continued to outperform those of the rest of the world, with value stocks strongly outperforming growth stocks, as illustrated by the 12.02% return of the Russell 1000^® Value Index⁵ versus the 4.22% return of the Russell 1000^® Growth Index⁶ over the reporting period.

Market volatility declined during the reporting period, with the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) Volatility Index (VIX),⁷ a measure of implied forward volatility of the S&P 500, moving from 16.13 to 13.33. This slight drop in the VIX belied the large swings of volatility during the year, with rate fears escalating in early 2016, the U.K.'s vote to exit the EU (“Brexit”) in June 2016 and election concerns in early November. In the first instance, the closing VIX peaked at 28.14 on February 11, 2016, before dropping down as low as 13.10 on April 1, 2016; another spike occurred on June 24 at 25.76, following the Brexit referendum; finally, election concerns caused the VIX to spike to 22.51 on November 4.

TACTICAL OVERLAY

For the reporting period, the volatility targeting overlay was the primary detractor from Fund performance. The Fund uses an S&P 500 futures and options⁸ overlay to manage the Fund's volatility, increasing volatility in calm markets and decreasing volatility in turbulent markets.

Due to the high market volatility in the beginning of the month of December 2015, the Fund began the since-inception period with virtually only a slight long futures overlay. As the reporting period progressed, the large drawdown in the first quarter caused the Fund to implement a short futures overlay in February 2016. Eventually, calm market conditions emerged and the overlay slowly increased in order to keep the projected annualized volatility of the Fund within its 8% to 12% range. However, in June, market volatility spiked and the overlay was quickly reduced to lower projected Fund volatility. Market exposure was increased in both July and August as extreme market returns dissipated; but, nevertheless, the Fund did not participate fully in the quick market rebound.

2	Volatility is a statistical measurement of the frequency and level of changes in the value of an asset, index or instrument without regard to the direction of those changes. Volatility may result from rapid and dramatic price swings. There can be no guarantee that the Fund will maintain its target annualized volatility. Furthermore, while the volatility management portion of the strategy seeks enhanced returns with more consistent volatility levels over time, attaining and maintaining the target volatility does not ensure that the Fund will deliver enhanced returns.
3	Bond prices are sensitive to changes in interest rates, and a rise in interest rates can cause a decline in their prices.
4	Duration is a measure of a security's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities of shorter durations.
5	The Russell 1000® Value measures the performance of the large-cap value segment of the U.S. equity universe.*

7	The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) is a key measure of market expectations of near-term volatility conveyed by S&P 500 stock index option prices.*
8	The Fund's use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional instruments.

1	See the Fund's Prospectus for a description of the principal types of securities in which the Fund invests. As of the date specified above, the Fund owned shares of one or more affiliated investment companies. For purposes of this table, the affiliated investment company (other than an affiliated money market mutual fund) is not treated as a single portfolio security, but rather the Fund is treated as owning a pro rata portion of each security and each other asset and liability owned by the affiliated investment company. Accordingly, the percentages of total net assets shown in the table will differ from those presented on the Portfolio of Investments.
2	Based upon net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) or value of the derivative contracts as applicable. Derivative contracts may consist of futures, forwards, options and swaps. The impact of a derivative contract on the Fund's performance may be larger than its unrealized appreciation (depreciation) or value may indicate. In many cases, the notional value or amount of a derivative contract may provide a better indication of the contract's significance to the portfolio. More complete information regarding the Fund's direct investments in derivative contracts, including unrealized appreciation (depreciation), value, and notional values or amounts of such contracts, can be found in the table at the end of the Portfolio of Investments included in this Report.
3	Other Security Type consists of purchased options.
4	Cash Equivalents include any investments in money market mutual funds and/or overnight repurchase agreements.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

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.). Also includes securities valued at amortized cost.

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

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

As of November 30, 2016, all investments of the Fund excluding Emerging Markets Core Fund and High Yield Bond Portfolio utilized Level 1 inputs in valuing the Fund's assets carried at fair value. As permitted by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Investment Companies valued at $1,481,817 are measured at fair value using the net asset value (NAV) per share practical expedient. The price of shares redeemed in these Investment Companies is the next determined NAV after receipt of a shareholder redemption request.

The following acronyms are used throughout this portfolio:

ETF	—Exchange-Traded Fund
SPDR	—Standard & Poor's Depositary Receipt

Notes to Financial Statements

November 30, 2016

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Managed Pool Series (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. Federated Global Investment Management Corp., Federated Investment Management Company and Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania (collectively, the “Co-Advisers”) are each registered as a “commodity pool operator” with respect to operation of the Fund. The Trust consists of five portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Managed Volatility Strategy Portfolio (the “Fund”), a non-diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. Each portfolio pays its own expenses. The investment objective of the Fund is total return while seeking to provide volatility management.

The Fund commenced operations on December 16, 2014.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Investment Valuation

In calculating its net asset value (NAV), the Fund generally values investments as follows:

■ Shares of other mutual funds or non-exchange-traded investment companies are valued based upon their reported NAVs.

■ Equity securities listed on an exchange or traded through a regulated market system are valued at their last reported sale price or official closing price in their principal exchange or market.

■ Fixed-income securities are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.

■ Derivative contracts listed on exchanges are valued at their reported settlement or closing price, except that options are valued at the mean of closing bid and asked quotations.

■ Over-the-counter (OTC) derivative contracts are fair valued using price evaluations provided by a pricing service approved by the Trustees.

■ For securities that are fair valued in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees, certain factors may be considered such as: the last traded or purchase price of the security, information obtained by contacting the issuer or dealers, analysis of the issuer's financial statements or other available documents, fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, the movement of the market in which the security is normally traded, public trading in similar securities or derivative contracts of the issuer or comparable issuers, movement of a relevant index, or other factors including but not limited to industry changes and relevant government actions.

If any price, quotation, price evaluation or other pricing source is not readily available when the NAV is calculated, or if the Fund cannot obtain price evaluations from a pricing service or from more than one dealer for an investment within a reasonable period of time as set forth in the Fund's valuation policies and procedures, the Fund uses the fair value of the investment determined in accordance with the procedures described below. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to an investment if it sold the investment at approximately the time at which the Fund determines its NAV per share.

Fair Valuation and Significant Events Procedures

The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for determining the fair value of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Trustees have appointed a valuation committee (“Valuation Committee”) comprised of officers of the Fund, the Co-Advisers and certain of the Co-Advisers' affiliated companies to assist in determining fair value and in overseeing the calculation of the NAV. The Trustees have also authorized the use of pricing services recommended by the Valuation Committee to provide fair value evaluations of the current value of certain investments for purposes of calculating the NAV. The Valuation Committee employs various methods for reviewing third-party pricing-service evaluations including periodic reviews of third-party pricing services' policies, procedures and valuation methods (including key inputs, methods, models and assumptions), transactional back-testing, comparisons of evaluations of different pricing services, and review of price challenges by the Co-Advisers based on recent market activity. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the Valuation Committee determines the fair value of the investment in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees. The Trustees periodically review and approve the fair valuations made by the Valuation Committee and any changes made to the procedures.

Factors considered by pricing services in evaluating an investment include the yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, call rights and other potential prepayments, terms and type, reported transactions, indications as to values from dealers and general market conditions. Some pricing services provide a single price evaluation reflecting the bid-side of the market for an investment (a “bid” evaluation). Other pricing services offer both bid evaluations and price evaluations indicative of a price between the prices bid and asked for the investment (a “mid” evaluation). The Fund normally uses bid evaluations for any U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities. The Fund normally uses mid evaluations for any other types of fixed-income securities and any OTC derivative contracts. In the event that market quotations and price evaluations are not available for an investment, the fair value of the investment is determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Trustees.

Annual Shareholder Report

10

The Trustees also have adopted procedures requiring an investment to be priced at its fair value whenever the Co-Advisers determine that a significant event affecting the value of the investment has occurred between the time as of which the price of the investment would otherwise be determined and the time as of which the NAV is computed. An event is considered significant if there is both an affirmative expectation that the investment's value will change in response to the event and a reasonable basis for quantifying the resulting change in value. Examples of significant events that may occur after the close of the principal market on which a security is traded, or after the time of a price evaluation provided by a pricing service or a dealer, include:

■ With respect to securities traded principally in foreign markets, significant trends in U.S. equity markets or in the trading of foreign securities index futures contracts;

■ Political or other developments affecting the economy or markets in which an issuer conducts its operations or its securities are traded;

■ Announcements concerning matters such as acquisitions, recapitalizations, litigation developments, or a natural disaster affecting the issuer's operations or regulatory changes or market developments affecting the issuer's industry.

The Trustees have adopted procedures whereby the Valuation Committee uses a pricing service to determine the fair value of equity securities traded principally in foreign markets when the Co-Advisers determine that there has been a significant trend in the U.S. equity markets or in index futures trading. For other significant events, the Fund may seek to obtain more current quotations or price evaluations from alternative pricing sources. If a reliable alternative pricing source is not available, the Fund will determine the fair value of the investment in accordance with the fair valuation procedures approved by the Trustees. The Trustees have ultimate responsibility for any fair valuations made in response to a significant event.

Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may invest in repurchase agreements for short-term liquidity purposes. It is the policy of the Fund to require the other party to a repurchase agreement to transfer to the Fund's custodian or sub-custodian eligible securities or cash with a market value (after transaction costs) at least equal to the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement. The eligible securities are transferred to accounts with the custodian or sub-custodian in which the Fund holds a “securities entitlement” and exercises “control” as those terms are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code. The Fund has established procedures for monitoring the market value of the transferred securities and requiring the transfer of additional eligible securities if necessary to equal at least the repurchase price. These procedures also allow the other party to require securities to be transferred from the account to the extent that their market value exceeds the repurchase price or in exchange for other eligible securities of equivalent market value.

The insolvency of the other party or other failure to repurchase the securities may delay the disposition of the underlying securities or cause the Fund to receive less than the full repurchase price. Under the terms of the repurchase agreement, any amounts received by the Fund in excess of the repurchase price and related transaction costs must be remitted to the other party.

The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements in which eligible securities are transferred into joint trading accounts maintained by the custodian or sub-custodian for investment companies and other clients advised by the Fund's Co-Advisers and their affiliates. The Fund will participate on a pro rata basis with the other investment companies and clients in its share of the securities transferred under such repurchase agreements and in its share of proceeds from any repurchase or other disposition of such securities.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified-cost basis. Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Foreign dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date or when the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Distributions of net investment income are declared and paid monthly. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. Amortization/accretion or premium and discount are included in investment income. The Fund invested in Emerging Markets Fixed Income Core Fund (EMCORE), a portfolio of Federated Core Trust II, L.P. which was a limited partnership established under the laws of the state of Delaware. The Fund recorded daily its proportionate share of income, expenses, realized and unrealized gains and losses from EMCORE.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the Subchapter M provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is necessary. As of and during the year ended November 30, 2016, the Fund did not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to tax liabilities as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. As of November 30, 2016, tax years 2015 and 2016 remain subject to examination by the Fund's major tax jurisdictions, which include the United States of America and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed-delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Futures Contracts

The Fund purchases and sells financial futures contracts to seek to manage market, duration and yield curve risks. Upon entering into a financial futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of U.S. government securities or cash which is shown as Restricted Cash in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a “variation margin” account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in

Annual Shareholder Report

11

the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying securities. There is minimal counterparty risk to the Fund since futures are exchange traded and the exchange's clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

Futures contracts outstanding at period end are listed after the Fund's Portfolio of Investments.

The average notional value of long and short futures contracts held by the Fund throughout the period was $982,070 and $153,273, respectively. This is based on amounts held as of each month-end throughout the fiscal period.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Fund enters into foreign exchange contracts to manage currency risk. Purchased contracts are used to acquire exposure to foreign currencies, whereas, contracts to sell are used to hedge the Fund's securities against currency fluctuations. Risks may arise upon entering into these transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their commitments and from unanticipated movements in security prices or foreign exchange rates. The foreign exchange contracts are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the settlement date.

At November 30, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding foreign exchange contracts.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies (FCs) are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rates of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange quoted on the respective date that such transactions are recorded. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of FCs, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

Restricted Securities

The Fund may purchase securities which are considered restricted. Restricted securities are securities that either: (a) cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, or being able to take advantage of an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act of 1933; or (b) are subject to contractual restrictions on public sales. In some cases, when a security cannot be offered for public sale without first being registered, the issuer of the restricted security has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer's expense, either upon demand by the Fund or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many such restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Trustees. The Fund will not incur any registration costs upon such resales. The Fund's restricted securities, like other securities, are priced in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees.

Option Contracts

The Fund buys or sells put and call options to seek to manage market risk. The seller (“writer”) of an option receives a payment or premium, from the buyer, which the writer keeps regardless of whether the buyer exercises the option. When the Fund writes a put or call option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. The Fund, as a writer of an option, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the underlying reference instrument. When the Fund purchases a put or call option, an amount equal to the premium paid is recorded as an increase to the cost of the investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option purchased. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Premiums received/paid for writing/purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying reference instrument to determine the realized gain or loss. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Options can trade on securities or commodities exchanges. In this case, the exchange sets all the terms of the contract except for the price. Most exchanges require investors to maintain margin accounts through their brokers to cover their potential obligations to the exchange. This protects investors against potential defaults by the counterparty.

The following is a summary of the Fund's written option activity:

Contracts	Number of Contracts	Premium
Outstanding at 11/30/2015	—	$—

Other

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated. The Fund applies Investment Company accounting and reporting guidance.

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due to differing treatments for allocated income from partnerships.

Annual Shareholder Report

13

For the year ended November 30, 2016, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Undistributed Net Investment Income (Loss)	Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss)
$2,378	$(2,378)

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended November 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows:

	2016	2015
Ordinary income	$89,798	$100,998

As of November 30, 2016, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income	$2,116
Net unrealized depreciation	$(14,068)
Capital loss carryforwards	$(324,374)

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable to differing treatments for the deferral of losses on wash sales and partnership adjustments.

At November 30, 2016, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $1,974,837. The net unrealized depreciation of investments for federal tax purposes excluding any unrealized appreciation/depreciation resulting from: a) futures contracts and b) written options was $22,625. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $31,849 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $54,474.

At November 30, 2016, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $324,374 which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, thereby reducing the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal income tax. Pursuant to the Code, a net capital loss incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, retains its character as either short-term or long-term and does not expire. All of the Fund's capital loss carryforwards were incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010.

The following schedule summarizes the Fund's capital loss carryforwards:

Short-Term	Long-Term	Total
$183,083	$141,291	$324,374

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

The Co-Advisers provide investment adviser services at no fee, because all eligible investors are: (1) in separately managed or wrap-free programs, who often pay a single aggregate fee to the wrap program sponsor for all costs and expenses of the wrap-free programs; or (2) in certain other separately managed accounts and discretionary investment accounts. The Co-Advisers have contractually agreed to reimburse all operating expenses, excluding extraordinary expenses, incurred by the Fund. Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses are not direct obligations of the Fund and are not contractual reimbursements under the investment advisory contract. For the year ended November 30, 2016, the Co-Advisers reimbursed $252,505 of other operating expenses. The Fund's proportionate share of expenses from EMCORE as reported in the Fund's Statement of Operations are treated as Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses.

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. For purposes of determining the appropriate rate breakpoint, “Investment Complex” is defined as all of the Federated Funds subject to a fee under the Administrative Services Agreement. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average daily net assets of the Investment Complex as specified below, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses:

Administrative Fee	Average Daily Net Assets of the Investment Complex
0.150%	on the first $5 billion
0.125%	on the next $5 billion
0.100%	on the next $10 billion
0.075%	on assets in excess of $20 billion

In addition to the fees described above, the Fund agrees to pay FAS an annual Administrative Service Charge of $125,000 for administrative and compliance services related to commodities Futures Trading Commission Rule 4.50. For the year ended November 30, 2016, the annualized fee paid to FAS was 6.497% of average daily net assets of the Fund. For the year ended November 30, 2016, the Fund's Co-Advisers reimbursed the Fund for any fee paid to FAS.

7. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

The Fund invests in securities of non-U.S. issuers. Political or economic developments may have an effect on the liquidity and volatility of portfolio securities and currency holdings.

8. LINE OF CREDIT

The Fund participates with certain other Federated Funds, on a several basis, in an up to $500,000,000 unsecured, 364-day, committed, revolving line of credit (LOC) agreement. The LOC was made available to finance temporarily the repurchase or redemption of shares of the Fund, failed trades, payment of dividends, settlement of trades and for other short-term, temporary or emergency general business purposes. The Fund cannot borrow under the LOC if an inter-fund loan is outstanding. The Fund's ability to borrow under the LOC also is subject to the limitations of the Act and various conditions precedent that must be satisfied before the Fund can borrow. Loans under the LOC are charged interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest, on any day, of (a) (i) the federal funds effective rate, (ii) the one month London Interbank Offer Rate (LIBOR), and (iii) 0.0%, plus (b) a margin. The LOC also requires the Fund to pay, quarterly in arrears and at maturity, its pro rata share of a commitment fee based on the amount of the lenders' commitment that has not been utilized. As of November 30, 2016, the Fund had no outstanding loans. During the year ended November 30, 2016, the Fund did not utilize the LOC.

9. INTERFUND LENDING

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Fund, along with other funds advised by subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc., may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Fund to borrow from other participating affiliated funds. As of November 30, 2016, there were no outstanding loans. During the year ended November 30, 2016, the program was not utilized.

10. Regulatory updates

On October 13, 2016, the SEC amended existing rules intended to modernize reporting and disclosure of information. These amendments relate to Regulation S-X which sets forth the form and content of financial statements. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of adopting these amendments and their impact on the financial statements and accompanying notes.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE FEDERATED managed pool series AND SHAREHOLDERS OF FEDERATED MANAGED Volatility Strategy Portfolio:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of the Federated Managed Volatility Strategy Portfolio (the “Fund”), a portfolio of Federated Managed Pool Series, as of November 30, 2016, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, and the statement of changes in net assets and financial highlights for each of the years or periods from December 16, 2014 (commencement of operations) through November 30, 2016. 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 conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2016, by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent, and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Federated Managed Volatility Strategy Portfolio as of November 30, 2016, and the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets and financial highlights for each of the years or periods from December 16, 2014 through November 30, 2016, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Shareholder Expense Example (unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including to the extent applicable, management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or other service fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to 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. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2016 to November 30, 2016.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

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

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second section 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. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are required to be provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with 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 and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads) on purchase or redemption payments. Therefore, the second section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

	Beginning Account Value 6/1/2016	Ending Account Value 11/30/2016	Expenses Paid During Period1
Actual	$1,000	$1,017.30	$0.00
Hypothetical (assuming a 5% return before expenses)	$1,000	$1,025.00	$0.00

1 Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized net expense ratio of 0.00%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 183/366 (to reflect the one-half-year period). The Co-Advisers have contractually agreed to reimburse all operating expenses, excluding extraordinary expenses, incurred by the Fund. This agreement has no fixed term.

Evaluation and Approval of Advisory Contract–May 2016

Federated Managed Volatility Strategy Portfolio (the “Fund”)

Following a review and recommendation of approval by the Fund's independent trustees, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the “Board”) reviewed and unanimously approved at its May 2016 meetings the continuation of the Fund's investment advisory contract, under which Federated Global Investment Management Corp., Federated Investment Management Company and Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania will serve as co-advisers to the Fund (“Co-Advisers”), for an additional one-year term. The Board's decision regarding the contract reflects the exercise of its business judgment after consideration of all of the information received on whether to continue the existing arrangements.

The Fund is distinctive in that it is used to implement particular investment strategies that are offered to investors in certain separately managed or wrap fee accounts or programs, or certain other discretionary investments accounts, and may also be offered to other Federated funds.

In addition, the Co-Advisers do not charge an investment advisory fee for their services although the Co-Advisers or their affiliates may receive compensation for managing assets invested in the Fund.

The Board had previously appointed a Senior Officer, whose duties include specified responsibilities relating to the process by which advisory fees are to be charged to a Federated fund. The Senior Officer has the authority to retain consultants, experts, or staff as may be reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of his duties, reports directly to the Board, and may be terminated only with the approval of a majority of the independent members of the Board. The Senior Officer prepared and furnished to the Board an independent, written evaluation that covered topics discussed below (the “Senior Officer's Evaluation”). The Board considered the Senior Officer's Evaluation, along with other information, in deciding to approve the investment advisory contract.

As previously noted, the Co-Advisers do not charge an investment advisory fee for their services; however, the Board did consider compensation and benefits received by the Co-Advisers, including fees received for services provided to the Fund by Federated Investors, Inc. and its affiliates (“Federated”) and research services received by the Co- Advisers from brokers that execute Federated fund trades. The Board is also familiar with and considered judicial decisions concerning allegedly excessive investment advisory fees, which have indicated that the following factors may be relevant to an adviser's fiduciary duty with respect to its receipt of compensation from a fund: the nature and quality of the services provided by an adviser to a fund and its shareholders, including the performance and fees and expenses of the fund and of comparable funds; an adviser's cost of providing the services, including the profitability to an adviser of providing advisory services to a fund; the extent to which an adviser may realize “economies of scale” as a fund grows larger and, if such economies of scale exist, whether they have been shared with a fund and its shareholders or the family of funds; any “fall-out financial benefits” that accrue to an adviser because of its relationship with a fund (including research services received from brokers that execute fund trades and any fees paid to affiliates of an adviser for services rendered to a fund); comparative fee and expense structures, including a comparison of fees paid to an adviser with those paid by similar funds; and the extent of care, conscientiousness and independence with which board members perform their duties and their expertise, including whether they are fully informed about all facts the board deems relevant to its consideration of an adviser's services and fees. The Board noted that the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements regarding the basis for the Board's approval of the Fund's investment advisory contract generally track the factors listed above. Consistent with these judicial decisions and SEC disclosure requirements, the Board also considered management fees charged to institutional and other clients of each Co-Adviser for what might be viewed as like services. The Board was aware of these factors and was guided by them in its review of the Fund's investment advisory contract to the extent it considered them to be appropriate and relevant, as discussed further below.

The Board considered and weighed these circumstances in light of its substantial accumulated experience in governing the Fund and working with Federated on matters relating to the Federated funds, and was assisted in its deliberations by independent legal counsel. Throughout the year, and in connection with its May meetings, the Board requested and received substantial and detailed information about the Fund and the Federated organization that was in addition to the extensive materials that comprise and accompany the Senior Officer's Evaluation. Federated provided much of this information at each regular meeting of the Board, and furnished additional substantial information in connection with the May meetings at which the Board's formal review of the investment advisory contract occurred. At the May meetings, in addition to meeting in separate sessions of the independent trustees without management present, senior management of the Co-Advisers also met with the independent trustees and their counsel to discuss the materials presented and any other matters thought relevant by the Co-Advisers or the trustees. Between regularly scheduled meetings, the Board also received information on particular matters as the need arose. Thus, the Board's consideration of the investment advisory contract included review of the Senior Officer's Evaluation, accompanying data and additional information covering such matters as: the Co-Advisers' investment philosophy, revenue, profitability, personnel and processes; investment and operating strategies; the Fund's performance (in absolute terms, both on a gross basis and net of expenses, as well as in relationship to its particular investment program and certain competitor or “peer group” funds and/or other benchmarks, as appropriate), and comments

on the reasons for performance; the Fund's investment objectives; the Fund's expenses; the use and allocation of brokerage commissions derived from trading the Fund's portfolio securities (if any); and the nature, quality and extent of the advisory and other services provided to the Fund by the Co-Advisers and their affiliates. The Board also considered the preferences and expectations of Fund shareholders; the entrepreneurial risk assumed by the Co-Advisers in sponsoring the Fund; the continuing state of competition in the mutual fund industry and market practices; the Fund's relationship to the Federated funds which include a comprehensive array of funds with different investment objectives, policies and strategies which are generally available for exchange without the incurrence of additional sales charges; compliance and audit reports concerning the Federated funds and the Federated companies that service them (including communications from regulatory agencies), as well as Federated's responses to any issues raised therein; and relevant developments in the mutual fund industry and how the Federated funds and/or Federated are responding to them. The Board's evaluation process is evolutionary. The criteria considered and the emphasis placed on relevant criteria change in recognition of changing circumstances in the mutual fund marketplace.

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Co-Advisers and the resources of the Co-Advisers and their affiliates dedicated to the Fund. In particular, the Board considered the services provided by the Co-Advisers in the aggregate, to the extent that the Co-Advisers collaborate with respect to the implementation of the Fund's strategy, as well as separately, to the extent to which specific services provided by a Co-Adviser are distinguishable and subject to meaningful assessment. In this regard, the Board evaluated, among other things, the Co-Advisers' personnel, experience, track record, overall reputation and willingness to invest in personnel and infrastructure that benefit the Fund. In addition, the Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board noted the compliance programs of and the compliance-related resources provided to the Fund by the Co-Advisers. The Fund's ability to deliver competitive performance when compared to its benchmark index was also deemed to be relevant by the Board as a useful indicator of how the Co-Advisers are executing the Fund's investment program, which in turn was one of the Board's considerations in reaching a conclusion that the nature, extent, and quality of the Co-Advisers' investment management services were such as to warrant continuation of the investment advisory contract.

The Board was informed by the Co-Advisers that, for the period covered by the Senior Officer's Evaluation, the Fund underperformed its benchmark index for the one-year period. The Board discussed the Fund's performance with the Co-Advisers and recognized the efforts being taken by the Co-Advisers in the context of the other factors considered relevant by the Board.

Following such evaluation, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the performance of the Fund supported renewal of the investment advisory contract with respect to the Fund.

Because the Co-Advisers do not charge the Fund an investment advisory fee, the Board does not consider fee comparisons to other mutual funds or other institutional or separate accounts to be particularly relevant to its deliberations.

The Board also received financial information about Federated, including information regarding the compensation and ancillary (or “fall-out”) benefits Federated derived from its relationships with the Federated funds.

Because the Co-Advisers do not charge an investment advisory fee for their services, this information generally covered fees received by Federated's subsidiaries for providing other services to the Federated funds under separate contracts (e.g., for serving as the Federated funds' administrator). The information also detailed any indirect benefit Federated may derive from its receipt of research services from brokers who execute Federated fund trades. In addition, the Board considered the fact that, in order for a fund to be competitive in the marketplace, Federated and its affiliates frequently waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses and have disclosed to fund investors and/or indicated to the Board their intention to do so in the future, where appropriate. Moreover, the Board receives regular reporting as to the institution, adjustment or elimination of these voluntary waivers. The Board considered Federated's previous reductions in contractual management fees to certain funds in response to the Senior Officer's recommendations.

The Board and the Senior Officer also reviewed information compiled by Federated comparing profitability information for Federated to other publicly held fund management companies. In this regard, the Senior Officer concluded that Federated's profit margins did not appear to be excessive. The Senior Officer also noted that Federated appeared financially sound, with the resources to fulfill its obligations under its contracts with the Fund.

The Senior Officer noted that, subject to the comments and recommendations made within the Senior Officer's Evaluation, his observations and the information accompanying the Senior Officer's Evaluation supported a finding by the Board that the management fee for the Fund was reasonable. Under these circumstances, no changes were recommended to, and no objection was raised to the continuation of the Funds investment advisory contract.

Annual Shareholder Report

The Board based its decision to approve the investment advisory contract on the totality of the circumstances and relevant factors and with a view to past and future long-term considerations. Not all of the factors and considerations identified above were necessarily relevant to the Fund, nor did the Board consider any one of them to be determinative. In particular, due to the unusual nature of the Fund as primarily an internal product with no advisory fee, the Board does not consider the assessment of whether economies of scale would be realized if the Fund were to grow to a sufficient size to be particularly relevant. With respect to the factors that were relevant, the Board's decision to approve the continuation of the contract reflects its determination that Federated's performance and actions provided a satisfactory basis to support the decision to continue the existing arrangement.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Policies regarding Pre-approval of Services.

The Audit Committee is required to pre-approve audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditor in order to assure that the provision of such services do not impair the auditor’s independence. Unless a type of service to be provided by the independent auditor has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

Certain services have the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The term of the general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period. The Audit Committee will annually review the services that may be provided by the independent auditor without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee and may grant general pre-approval for such services. The Audit Committee will revise the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations. The Audit Committee will not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent auditor to management.

The Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to its Chairman. The Chairman will report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Committee will designate another member with such pre-approval authority when the Chairman is unavailable.

AUDIT SERVICES

The annual Audit services engagement terms and fees will be subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee must approve any changes in terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, registered investment company (RIC) structure or other matters.

In addition to the annual Audit services engagement specifically approved by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval for other Audit Services, which are those services that only the independent auditor reasonably can provide. The Audit Committee has pre-approved certain Audit services, all other Audit services must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

AUDIT-RELATED SERVICES

Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company’s financial statements or that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee believes that the provision of Audit-related services does not impair the independence of the auditor, and has pre-approved certain Audit-related services, all other Audit-related services must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

TAX SERVICES

The Audit Committee believes that the independent auditor can provide Tax services to the Company such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor’s independence. However, the Audit Committee will not permit the retention of the independent auditor in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the independent auditor, the purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Audit Committee has pre-approved certain Tax services, all Tax services involving large and complex transactions must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

ALL OTHER SERVICES

With respect to the provision of services other than audit, review or attest services the pre-approval requirement is waived if:

(1) The aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than five percent of the total amount of revenues paid by the registrant, the registrant’s adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant to its accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided;

(2) Such services were not recognized by the registrant, the registrant’s adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and

(3) Such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee of the issuer and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee who are members of the board of directors to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to those permissible non-audit services classified as All Other services that it believes are routine and recurring services, and would not impair the independence of the auditor.

The SEC’s rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise definitions of prohibited non-audit services and the applicability of exceptions to certain of the prohibitions.

PRE-APPROVAL FEE LEVELS

Pre-approval fee levels for all services to be provided by the independent auditor will be established annually by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding these levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

PROCEDURES

Requests or applications to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by both the independent auditor and the Principal Accounting Officer and/or Internal Auditor, and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.

(e)(2) Percentage of services identified in items 4(b) through 4(d) that were approved by the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X:

4(b)

Fiscal year ended 2016 – 0%

Fiscal year ended 2015 - 0%

Percentage of services provided to the registrants investment adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were approved by the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, 0% and 0% respectively.

4(c)

Fiscal year ended 2016 – 0%

Fiscal year ended 2015 – 0%

Percentage of services provided to the registrants investment adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were approved by the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, 0% and 0% respectively.

4(d)

Fiscal year ended 2016 – 0%

Fiscal year ended 2015 – 0%

Percentage of services provided to the registrants investment adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were approved by the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, 0% and 0% respectively.

(f) NA

(g) Non-Audit Fees billed to the registrant, the registrant’s investment adviser, and certain entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser:

Fiscal year ended 2016 - $302,667

Fiscal year ended 2015 - $71,058

(h) The registrant’s Audit Committee has considered that the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

In their respective required communications to the Audit Committee of the registrant’s Board, Ernst & Young LLP (“EY”) and KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) (as applicable, “EY/KPMG”), the registrant’s independent public accountants, informed the Audit Committee that EY/KPMG and/or covered person professionals within EY/KPMG maintain lending relationships with certain owners of greater than 10% of the shares of the registrant and/or certain investment companies within the “investment company complex” as defined under Rule 2-01(f)(14) of Regulation S-X, which are affiliates of the registrant. EY/KPMG has advised the Audit Committee that these lending relationships implicate Rule 2-01(c)(1)(ii)(A) of Regulation S-X (referred to as the “Loan Rule”). The Loan Rule prohibits an independent public accountant, or covered person professionals at such firm, from having a financial relationship (such as a loan) with a lender that is a record or beneficial owner of more than 10% of an audit client’s equity securities. For purposes of the Loan Rule, audit clients include the registrant, as well as all registered investment companies advised by advisory subsidiaries of Federated Investors, Inc., the Adviser (for which EY serves as independent public accountant), and their respective affiliates (collectively, the “Federated Fund Complex”).

EY/KPMG informed the Audit Committee that EY/KPMG believes that these lending relationships described above do not and will not impair EY/KPMG’s ability to exercise objective and impartial judgment in connection with financial statement audits of their respective funds of the registrant and a reasonable investor with knowledge of all relevant facts and circumstances would conclude that EY/KPMG has been and is capable of objective and impartial judgment on all issues encompassed within EY/KPMG’s audits.

On June 20, 2016, the Division of Investment Management of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued a no-action letter to another mutual fund complex (see Fidelity Management & Research Company et al., No-Action Letter) related to similar Loan Rule matters as those described above. In that letter, the SEC Staff confirmed that it would not recommend enforcement action against an investment company that relied on the audit services performed by an independent public accountant where the Loan Rule was implicated in certain specified circumstances. In that letter, the SEC staff indicated that it would not recommend enforcement action against the investment company complex if the Loan Rule is implicated provided that: (1) the auditor has complied with PCAOB Rule 3526(b)(1) and 3526(b)(2); (2) the Loan Rule is implicated because of lending relationships; and (3) notwithstanding such lending relationships that implicate the Loan Rule, the auditor has concluded that it is objective and impartial with respect to the issues encompassed within its engagement as auditor of the funds. The circumstances described in the no-action letter are substantially similar to the circumstances that implicated the Loan Rule with respect to EY/KPMG and the registrant. The relief provided in the SEC no-action letter is effective for 18 months from its June 20, 2016 issuance date.

If it were to be determined that the relief available under the no-action letter was improperly relied upon, or that the independence requirements under the federal securities laws were not otherwise complied with regarding the registrant, for certain periods, any of the registrant’s filings with the SEC which contain financial statements of the registrant for such periods may not comply with applicable federal securities laws, the registrant’s ability to offer shares under its current registration statement may be impacted, and certain financial reporting and/or other covenants with, and representations and warranties to, the registrant’s lender under its committed line of credit may be impacted. Such events could have a material adverse effect on the registrant and the Federated Fund Complex.
