MARKET REVIEW

Active Equity Multi-Manager Funds

Market Review

The global equity markets broadly declined during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”), as persistent inflation, supply-chain shortages, recession fears and tightening central bank monetary policy created a challenging backdrop for investors.

Global equities started the Reporting Period strongly, with the MSCI All Country World Index (“MSCI ACWI”) Investable Market Index rising 1.2% in November and December 2021 overall to post a double-digit gain for the 2021 calendar year. For the remainder of the Reporting Period, however, global equity markets were volatile and broadly negative on the back of elevated inflation, rising interest rates and global supply-chain disruptions. In response to stubbornly high inflation, major central banks around the world picked up the pace of interest rate hikes, including the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”), which raised the targeted federal funds rate to a range between 3.00% and 3.25% by the end of October 2022, its highest level since 2008. Uncertainty about whether central banks could successfully combat inflation and also avoid an economic recession kept equity valuations depressed. Geopolitical tensions further dampened market sentiment, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 pushed up energy prices and as ongoing COVID-19-related lockdowns in China continued to disrupt global supply chains.

For the Reporting Period overall, the MSCI ACWI Investable Market Index, representing global equities, returned -19.96%, with growth stocks broadly underperforming value stocks. From a sector perspective, the higher interest rate environment and macroeconomic uncertainty contributed to a sell-off in long-duration growth stocks within the information technology and consumer discretionary sectors. (Long-duration stocks are those that tend to deliver a higher proportion of their cash flows in the distant future. Duration is a measure of sensitivity to changes in interest rates.) Energy was the best performing sector in the MSCI ACWI Investable Market Index during the Reporting Period, benefiting from rising commodity prices. From a regional standpoint, North American stocks performed better than European, Australian and Asian stocks, but each global region recorded negative absolute returns overall. Within the U.S. equity market, small-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000^® Total Return Index, outperformed large-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000^® Index. However, all capitalization segments of the U.S. equity market posted negative absolute returns during the Reporting Period. Emerging markets equities were particularly challenged during the Reporting Period, mainly by the uncertain geopolitical environment and the sharp decline in China’s stock market. The MSCI China All Shares Index returned -42.58% during the Reporting Period overall, as economic growth concerns fueled by the Chinese government’s “zero-COVID” policies and its continuing regulatory crackdown weighed on investor sentiment. Instability within Eastern Europe was also a drag on the performance of emerging markets equities, with a number of index providers, including MSCI Inc., excluding Russian securities from their indices in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and also as geopolitical concerns drove significant equity declines in Eastern Europe, especially in Hungary and Poland.

Looking Ahead

At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed investors would continue to face headwinds from tightening monetary policy, as persistent inflation kept central banks on their interest rate hiking paths. While many observers anticipated some kind of economic slowdown, they continued to debate whether central bankers could engineer a “soft landing” or if a more protracted economic decline would be the likely outcome. (A soft landing, in economics, is a cyclical downturn that avoids recession. It typically describes attempts by central banks to raise interest rates just enough to stop an economy from overheating and experiencing high inflation, without causing a significant increase in unemployment, or a hard landing.) In our view, the war in Ukraine and its broader geopolitical risks were likely to remain threats to the global capital markets in the near term and could also push energy and food prices higher. Although supply-chain issues appeared to be moderating at the end of the Reporting Period, we expected them to remain obstacles in the fight against inflation.

FUND RESULTS

Multi-Manager International Equity Fund

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Alternative Investments & Manager Selection (“AIMS”) Group discusses the Multi-Manager International Equity Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class P Shares generated an average annual total return of -23.15%. This return compares to the -23.00% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East (“EAFE”) Index (Net, USD, Unhedged) (the “MSCI^® EAFE^® Index”), during the same time period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund uses a multi-manager approach and generally seeks to achieve its investment objective by dynamically allocating its assets among unaffiliated investment managers (“Underlying Managers”) that employ an international equity investment strategy. The AIMS Group is responsible for making recommendations with respect to hiring, terminating or replacing the Fund’s Underlying Managers as well as for determining the Fund’s asset allocations. The AIMS Group applies a multifaceted process with respect to manager due diligence, portfolio construction and risk management.

During the Reporting Period, the Fund generated a negative absolute return, underperforming the Index on a relative basis. These relative results can be attributed to the performance of the Fund’s Underlying Managers overall. During the Reporting Period, the Fund allocated capital to four Underlying Managers as part of its top-level strategy allocation—Causeway Capital Management LLC (“Causeway”), Lazard Asset Management LLC (“Lazard”), Massachusetts Financial Services Company doing business as MFS Investment Management (“MFS”) and WCM Investment Management (“WCM”).

All four of the Underlying Managers produced negative absolute returns during the Reporting Period. On a relative basis, growth-oriented Underlying Manager WCM and core-oriented Underlying Manager Lazard underperformed their respective benchmark indices. Value-oriented Underlying Manager Causeway and core-oriented Underlying Manager MFS outperformed their respective benchmark indices during the Reporting Period.

Q Which international equity strategies most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Growth-oriented Underlying Manager WCM underperformed its benchmark index, the MSCI ACWI ex-USA Index, during the Reporting Period, due to weak stock selection and a relative overweight in information technology as well as a lack of exposure to the energy sector. These losses were partly offset by a lack of exposure to the communication services and real estate sectors, which added value. From a regional perspective, poor stock selection across the board detracted from performance, though allocation decisions contributed positively.

Lazard, a core-oriented Underlying Manager, underperformed its benchmark index, the MSCI^® EAFE^® Index, primarily because of poor stock selection within the consumer discretionary and real estate sectors. On a regional basis, weak stock selection in continental Europe and Japan detracted the most from relative returns. These negative results were partially offset by effective stock selection in the financials and consumer staples sectors, out-of-benchmark exposure to North America, primarily Canada, and a relative overweight to and stock selection in the U.K.

Value-oriented Underlying Manager Causeway outperformed its benchmark index, the MSCI^® EAFE^® Index, during the Reporting Period, largely as a result of strong stock selection within the consumer discretionary and financials sectors. These gains were slightly offset by weak stock selection in the materials and industrials sectors. From a regional perspective, the majority of its outperformance was driven by strong stock selection in Europe, while a lack of exposure to Asia ex-Japan detracted from relative performance.

Core-oriented Underlying Manager MFS outperformed the MSCI^® EAFE^® Index, its benchmark index, due largely to broad-based positive stock selection across the consumer discretionary, information technology, financials and industrials sectors. Additionally, the strategy benefited from a lack of exposure to the real estate sector. Conversely, a relative underweight position in energy, along with challenged stock selection within communication services, detracted from relative performance. From a regional perspective, stock selection was strong in continental Europe.

FUND RESULTS

Modest out-of-benchmark exposure to North America, especially Canada, added further to returns. Meanwhile, stock selection in the emerging markets—namely, modest out-of-benchmark exposure to China and Taiwan—detracted somewhat from relative performance.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund used forward foreign currency exchange contracts during the Reporting Period to take positions in select non-U.S. markets. Rights were employed to give the Fund the opportunity, but not the obligation, to buy additional shares of specific stocks at a discount. The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts had a positive impact on the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period, while the use of rights had a neutral impact.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period?

A There were no notable changes to the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period. At the beginning and end of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated approximately 30% to MFS, 29% to Causeway, 20% to WCM and 20% to Lazard, with the remainder invested in cash and cash equivalents.

Q What is the Fund’s tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A We intend to continue to position the Fund in alignment with our longer-term strategic views within the international equity complex. We further intend to continue to monitor allocations and Underlying Manager performance as we seek to generate long-term capital growth.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Alternative Investments & Manager Selection (“AIMS”) Group discusses the Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class P Shares generated an average annual total return of -15.77%. This return compares to the -18.54% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Russell 2000^® Total Return Index (the “Index”), during the same time period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund uses a multi-manager approach and generally seeks to achieve its investment objective by dynamically allocating its assets among unaffiliated investment managers (“Underlying Managers”) that employ a small-cap equity investment strategy. The AIMS Group is responsible for making recommendations with respect to hiring, terminating or replacing the Fund’s Underlying Managers as well as for determining the Fund’s asset allocations. The AIMS Group applies a multifaceted process with respect to manager due diligence, portfolio construction and risk management.

The Fund generated a negative absolute return during the Reporting Period but outperformed the Index. The relative outperformance can be attributed to the performance of the Fund’s Underlying Managers overall. During the Reporting Period, the Fund allocated capital to three Underlying Managers, one of which managed two strategies, as part of its top-level strategy allocation—Boston Partners Global Investors (“Boston Partners”), Brown Advisory, LLC (“Brown Advisory”) and Victory Capital Management, Inc. (“Victory RS” and “Victory Sycamore”).

All four of the strategies managed by these Underlying Managers generated negative absolute returns during the Reporting Period. On a relative basis, growth-oriented Underlying Manager Brown Advisory, value-oriented Underlying Manager Boston Partners and value-oriented Underlying Manager Victory Sycamore outperformed their

respective benchmark indices. Growth-oriented Underlying Manager Victory RS underperformed its benchmark index during the Reporting Period.

Q Which small-cap equity strategies most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Growth-oriented Underlying Manager Brown Advisory outperformed its benchmark index, the Russell 2000^® Growth Index, during the Reporting Period, driven primarily by strong stock selection within the information technology and financials sectors. Conversely, an allocation to the energy sector and stock selection within consumer discretionary partly offset these positive results.

Value-oriented Underlying Manager Boston Partners outperformed its benchmark index, the Russell 2000^® Value Index. Strong stock selection in and a relative underweight to health care, as well as stock selection in communication services, added to performance. Meanwhile, stock selection within consumer staples, along with an overweight in information technology, detracted from returns.

Victory Sycamore, the other value-oriented Underlying Manager, outperformed its benchmark index, the Russell 2000^® Value Index, mainly because of strong stock selection in and a relative overweight to the industrials sector. Effective stock selection in and an underweight to the health care sector was also advantageous. These positive results were offset somewhat by an underweight in energy, as well as stock selection within consumer staples, which detracted.

Victory RS, the other growth-oriented Underlying Manager, underperformed its benchmark index, the Russell 2000^® Growth Index during the Reporting Period. The negative results were primarily attributable to weak stock selection within the health care and information technology sectors. On the other hand, the strategy benefited from stock selection in the real estate sector.

FUND RESULTS

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund did not use derivatives or similar instruments.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period?

A At the beginning of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated approximately 32% to Brown Advisory, 29% to Boston Partners, 24% to Victory Sycamore and 14% to Victory RS, with the remainder invested in cash and cash equivalents.

In April 2022, the AIMS Group decided to trim the Fund’s allocation to growth-oriented Underlying Manager Victory RS. The assets were reallocated to growth-oriented Brown Advisory and value-oriented Victory Sycamore. This redeployment helped the AIMS Group keep the Fund in balance from both a risk budget and style perspective.

At the end of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated approximately 36% to Brown Advisory, 29% to Boston Partners, 25% to Victory Sycamore and 9% to Victory RS, with the remainder invested in cash and cash equivalents.

Q What is the Fund’s tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A We intend to continue to position the Fund in alignment with our longer-term strategic views within the U.S. small-cap equity complex. We further intend to continue to monitor allocations and Underlying Manager performance as we seek to generate long-term capital growth.

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2022

  1.   ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The following table lists those series of the Trust that are included in this report (collectively, the “Funds” or individually a “Fund”), along with their corresponding share classes and respective diversification status under the Act:

Fund	Share Classes Offered	Diversified/ Non-diversified
Multi-Manager International Equity	Class P	Diversified
Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity	Class P	Diversified

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust. As of October 31, 2022, GSAM had sub-advisory agreements (the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) for the Multi-Manager International Equity Fund with Causeway Capital Management LLC, Lazard Asset Management LLC, Massachusetts Financial Services Company, doing business as MFS Investment Management, and WCM Investment Management, LLC and for the Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund with Boston Partners Global Investors, Inc., Brown Advisory LLC and Victory Capital Management, Inc., (the “Underlying Managers”). Pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Underlying Managers are responsible for making investment decisions and managing the investments of the applicable Fund. GSAM compensates the Underlying Managers directly in accordance with the terms of the applicable Sub-Advisory Agreements. The Funds are not charged any separate or additional investment advisory fees by the Underlying Managers.

  2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Each Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A.  Investment Valuation — The Funds’ valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.

B.  Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments. Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in U.S. real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain and/or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Funds as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

For derivative contracts, unrealized gains and losses are recorded daily and become realized gains and losses upon disposition or termination of the contract.

C.  Expenses — Expenses incurred directly by a Fund are charged to the Fund, and certain expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated across the applicable Funds on a straight-line and/or pro-rata basis, depending upon the nature of the expenses, and are accrued daily.

26

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

  2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

D.  Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies (mutual funds) and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Fund is not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually.

Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from GAAP. The source of each Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from distributable earnings or capital. Certain components of the Funds’ net assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities reflect permanent GAAP/tax differences based on the appropriate tax character.

E.  Foreign Currency Translation — The accounting records and reporting currency of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates at the close of each business day. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is included within net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. Changes in the value of other assets and liabilities as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are included in the Statements of Operations within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency translation. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date the transaction occurred, the effects of which are included within net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

F.  Commission Recapture — GSAM, on behalf of certain Funds, may direct portfolio trades, subject to seeking best execution, to various brokers who have agreed to rebate a portion of the commissions generated. Such rebates are made directly to a Fund as cash payments and are included in net realized gain (loss) from investments on the Statements of Operations.

  3.   INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

U.S. GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Funds’ policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, volatility and credit spreads), either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require significant unobservable inputs (including GSAM’s assumptions in determining fair value measurement).

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Funds, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. With respect to the Funds’ investments that do not have readily available market quotations, the Trustees have designated the Adviser as the valuation designee to perform

  3.   INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

fair valuations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Valuation Designee”).GSAM has day-today responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Funds’ investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

A.  Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value Investments — The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities will be valued at the valid closing bid price for long positions and at the valid closing ask price for short positions (i.e., where there is sufficient volume, during normal exchange trading hours). If no valid bid/ask price is available, the equity security will be valued pursuant to the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. Certain equity securities containing unique attributes may be classified as Level 2.

Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price for long positions or the last ask price for short positions, and are generally classified as Level 2. Securities traded on certain foreign securities exchanges are valued daily at fair value determined by an independent fair value service (if available) under the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. The independent fair value service takes into account multiple factors including, but not limited to, movements in the securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign currency exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign securities exchange. These investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Underlying Funds (including Money Market Funds) — Underlying funds (“Underlying Funds”) include other investment companies and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). Investments in the Underlying Funds (except ETFs) are valued at the NAV per share on the day of valuation. ETFs are valued daily at the last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which the investment is traded. Because the Funds invest in Underlying Funds that fluctuate in value, the Funds’ shares will correspondingly fluctuate in value. Underlying Funds are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. To the extent that underlying ETFs are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. For information regarding an Underlying Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Fund’s shareholder report.

Derivative Contracts — A derivative is an instrument whose value is derived from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors. A Fund enters into derivative transactions to hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices, and/or currency exchange rates, to increase total return, or to gain access to certain markets or attain exposure to other underliers. For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund and cash collateral received, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as either due to broker/receivable for collateral on certain derivative contracts. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments.

Exchange-traded derivatives, including futures and options contracts, are generally valued at the last sale or settlement price on the exchange where they are principally traded. Exchange-traded options without settlement prices are generally valued at the midpoint of the bid and ask prices on the exchange where they are principally traded (or, in the absence of two-way trading, at the last bid price for long positions and the last ask price for short positions). Exchange-traded derivatives typically fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) and centrally cleared derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value OTC and centrally cleared derivatives depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the

28

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

  3.   INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

availability of pricing information in the market. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC and centrally cleared derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC and centrally cleared derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence.

i.  Forward Contracts — A forward contract is a contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a specified price on a future date. A forward contract settlement can occur on a cash or delivery basis. Forward contracts are marked-to-market daily using independent vendor prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Cash and certain investments may be used to collateralize forward contracts.

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a forward contract in which the Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked to market daily by using the outright forward rates or interpolating based upon maturity dates, where available. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

B.  Level 3 Fair Value Investments — To the extent that significant inputs to valuation models and other alternative pricing sources are unobservable, or if quotations are not readily available, or if GSAM believes that such quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of a Fund’s investments may be determined under the Valuation Procedures. GSAM, consistent with its procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may make an adjustment to the most recent valuation prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining a Fund’s NAV. To the extent investments are valued using single source broker quotations obtained directly from the broker or passed through from third party pricing vendors, such investments are classified as Level 3 investments.

C.  Fair Value Hierarchy — The following is a summary of the Funds’ investments and derivatives classified in the fair value hierarchy as of October 31, 2022:

  4.   INVESTMENTS IN DERIVATIVES

The following tables set forth, by certain risk types, the Funds’ gains (losses) related to these derivatives and their indicative volumes for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022. These gains (losses) should be considered in the context that these derivative contracts may have been executed to create investment opportunities and/or economically hedge certain investments, and accordingly, certain gains (losses) on such derivative contracts may offset certain (losses) gains attributable to investments. These gains (losses) are included in “Net realized gain (loss)” or “Net change in unrealized gain (loss)” on the Statements of Operations:

MULTI-MANAGER INTERNATIONAL EQUITY

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the relevant values for each derivative type was as follows:
	Notional Amounts(a)
	Forward contracts
Multi-Manager International Equity		$83,159

(a) Amounts disclosed represent notional amounts for forward contracts, based on absolute values, which is indicative of volume for this derivative type, for the months that the Funds held such derivatives for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022.

  5.   AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreement — Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Funds, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Funds’ business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

30

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

    5.  AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS ( continued)

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, contractual and effective net management fees with GSAM were at the following rates:

Fund	Effective Rate	Effective Net Management Rate#*
Multi-Manager International Equity	0.60%		0.44	%
Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity	0.75		0.58

^*  GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee for each Fund in order to achieve an effective net management fee rate that is equal to the actual cost of fees paid to the Fund’s Underlying Managers. These arrangements will remain in effect through at least February 28, 2023, and prior to such date, GSAM may not terminate the applicable arrangement without the approval of the Trustees.

^#  Effective Net Management Rate includes impact of management fee waivers of underlying funds, if any.

The Funds invest in Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, which is an affiliated Underlying Fund. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Funds in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the affiliated Underlying Fund in which the Funds invest. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the management fee waived by GSAM for each Fund was as follows:

Fund	Management Fee Waived
Multi-Manager International Equity	$77,264
Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity	60,673

B.  Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Funds for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates as follows: 0.02% of the average daily net assets of Class P Shares.

C.  Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees and shareholder administration fees, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Funds are not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Total Annual Operating Expense limitations as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for the Multi-Manager International Equity and Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Funds are 0.57% and 0.80%, respectively. These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least February 28, 2023, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Funds’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, these expense reductions, including any fee waivers and Other Expense reimbursements, were as follows:

Fund	Management Fee Waiver		Other Expense Reimbursements		Total Expense Reductions
Multi-Manager International Equity		$2,042,804		$28,535		2,071,339
Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity		1,097,048		—		1,097,048

D.  Line of Credit Facility — As of October 31, 2022, the Funds participated in a $1,250,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the Funds did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 22, 2022, the facility was $1,000,000,000.

E.  Other Transactions with Affiliates — For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, Goldman Sachs earned $3,861 and $2,046 in brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions, including futures transactions executed with Goldman Sachs as the Futures Commission Merchant, on behalf of the Multi-Manager International Equity and Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Funds, respectively..

The following table provides information about the Funds’ investments in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund as of and for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022:

	Multi-Manager International Equity Fund		Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income		$10,201,242		$1,238,041

As of October 31, 2022, the components of accumulated earnings (losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

	Multi-Manager International Equity Fund		Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund
Undistributed ordinary income — net		$  15,217,540		$    2,008,045

Total accumulated earnings (loss) net		$(31,275,034)		$    6,225,575

As of October 31, 2022, the Funds’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

	Multi-Manager International Equity Fund			Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund
Tax Cost		$1,190,577,567			$663,014,392
Gross unrealized gain		151,544,347			67,953,666
Gross unrealized loss		(190,370,520	)		(51,714,749	)
Net unrealized gain (loss)		$  (38,826,173	)		$  16,238,917

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales and differences in the tax treatment of passive foreign investment company investments.

GSAM has reviewed the Funds’ tax positions for all open tax years (the current and prior three years, as applicable) and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

    8.   OTHER RISKS

The Funds’ risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Derivatives Risk — The Funds’ use of derivatives and other similar instruments (together, referred to in this paragraph as “derivatives”) may result in loss, including due to adverse market movements. Derivatives, which may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in securities, currencies or other instruments, may be illiquid or less liquid, volatile, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying instruments may produce disproportionate losses to the Funds. Changes in the value of a derivative may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for the Funds. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not, or lacks the capacity or authority to, fulfill its contractual obligation. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and

33

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2022

  8.  OTHER RISKS (continued)

instruments. The use of derivatives is also subject to operational and legal risks. Operational risks refer to risks related to potential operational issues, including documentation issues, settlement issues, system failures, inadequate controls, and human error. Legal risks refer to the risks of loss resulting from insufficient documentation, or legality or enforceability of a contract. Losses from derivatives can also result from a lack of correlation between changes in the value of derivative instruments and the portfolio assets (if any) being hedged.

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the U.S. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation; less public information; less stringent investor protections; less stringent accounting, corporate governance, financial reporting and disclosure standards; and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which a Fund invests. The imposition of sanctions, exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscation of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the U.S. or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is impossible to predict. For example, the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities issued by the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country and increase market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent a Fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions, and significantly impact a Fund’s liquidity and performance. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which a Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. To the extent that a Fund also invests in securities of issuers located in, or economically tied to, emerging markets, these risks may be more pronounced.

Foreign Custody Risk — A Fund invests in foreign securities, and as such the Fund may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on the Fund’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Geographic Risk — If a Fund focuses its investments in securities of issuers located in a particular country or geographic region, the Fund may be subjected, to a greater extent than if its investments were less focused, to the risks of volatile economic cycles and/or conditions and developments that may be particular to that country or region, such as: adverse securities markets; adverse exchange rates; adverse social, political, regulatory, economic, business, environmental or other developments; or natural disasters.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, including an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), a Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Fund. ETFs are subject to risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including but not limited to the following: (i) the market price of the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their NAV; and (ii) an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include a Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder

34

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

  8.   OTHER RISKS (continued)

redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact a Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Liquidity Risk — A Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that a Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, a Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If a Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect Fund’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. Liquidity risk may be the result of, among other things, the reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities or the lack of an active market. The potential for liquidity risk may be magnified by a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, potentially causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with the Funds’ investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on a Fund’s liquidity.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, a Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). The value of the securities in which a Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors or governments and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats could also significantly impact a Fund and its investments. Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Multi-Manager Approach Risk — The Funds’ performance depends on the ability of the Investment Adviser in selecting, overseeing, and allocating Fund assets to the Underlying Managers. The Underlying Managers’ investment styles may not always be complementary. The Funds’ multi-manager approach may result in the Fund investing a significant percentage of its assets in certain types of investments, which could be beneficial or detrimental to the Funds’ performance depending on the performance of those investments and the overall market environment. The Funds’ Underlying Managers may underperform the market generally or underperform other investment managers that could have been selected for the Funds. Because the Funds’ Underlying Managers may trade with counterparties, prime brokers, clearing brokers or futures commission merchants on terms that are different than those on which the Investment Adviser would trade, and because each Underlying Manager applies its own risk analysis in evaluating potential counterparties for the Funds, the Funds may be subject to greater counterparty risk than if they were managed directly by the Investment Adviser.

  9.   INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, GSAM believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust II and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager International Equity Fund and Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager International Equity Fund and Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund (two of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust II, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of October 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year ended October 31, 2022, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2022, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended October, 2022 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of October 31, 2022, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2022 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended October 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions

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

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended  October 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class P Shares of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from May 1, 2022 through October 31, 2022, which represents a period of 184 days of a 365 day year. This projection assumes that annualized expense ratios were in effect during the period.

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

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

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using each Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended October 31, 2022. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

Fund	Class P
Multi-Manager International Equity		0.58	%
Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity		0.74

+ Hypothetical expenses are based on each Fund’s actual annualized net expense ratios (excluding proxy fee which is not annualized) and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses.

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)

Background

The Multi-Manager International Equity Fund and Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund (the “Funds”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. Each Fund employs a “manager of managers” structure, whereby Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) is responsible for selecting sub-advisers (subject to Board approval), allocating the Fund’s assets among them, and overseeing their day-to-day management of Fund assets. The Board determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Investment Adviser on behalf of the Funds.

The Management Agreement was approved for continuation until June 30, 2023 at a meeting on June 9-10, 2022 and was most recently approved for continuation until September 30, 2023 at a meeting held on September 19-20, 2022 (together, the “Annual Meetings”) by the Board, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”). At the Annual Meetings, the Board also considered the sub-advisory agreements (each a “Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement” and, together with the Management Agreement, the “Agreements”) between the Investment Adviser and (i) each of Causeway Capital Management LLC, Lazard Asset Management LLC, Massachusetts Financial Services Company (d/b/a MFS Investment Management)t, and WCM Investment Management (on behalf of Multi-Manager International Equity Fund); and (ii) each of Boston Partners Global Investors, Inc., Brown Advisory LLC, and Victory Capital Management, Inc. (on behalf of Multi-Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund) (each, a “Designated Sub-Adviser” and collectively, the “Designated Sub-Advisers”).

The review process undertaken by the Trustees spans the course of the year and culminates with the Annual Meetings. To assist the Trustees in their deliberations, the Trustees have established a Contract Review Committee (the “Committee”), comprised of the Independent Trustees. The Committee held five meetings over the course of the year since the Management Agreement was last approved. At those Committee meetings, regularly scheduled Board or other committee meetings, and/or the Annual Meetings, matters relevant to the renewal of the Management Agreement and the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements were considered by the Board, or the Independent Trustees, as applicable. With respect to each Fund, such matters included:

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, and the Designated Sub-Advisers, including, as applicable, information about:

(i) the structure, staff, and capabilities of the Investment Adviser and the Designated Sub-Advisers and the Designated Sub-Advisers’ portfolio management teams;

(ii) the groups within the Investment Adviser and its affiliates that support the portfolio management teams or provide other types of necessary services, including fund services groups (e.g., accounting and financial reporting, tax, shareholder services, and operations); controls and risk management groups (e.g., legal, compliance, valuation oversight, credit risk management, internal audit, compliance testing, market risk analysis, finance, and central funding); sales and distribution support groups, and others (e.g., information technology and training);

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

(iv) the Investment Adviser’s financial resources and ability to hire and retain talented personnel and strengthen its operations; and

(v) the parent company’s support of the Investment Adviser and its mutual fund business, as expressed by the firm’s senior management;

(b) information on the investment performance of the Fund, including comparisons to the performance of similar mutual funds, as provided by a third-party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the contract review process (the “Outside Data Provider”), benchmark performance indices, and commingled investment vehicles with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Adviser, and information on general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Fund invests;

(c) information provided by the Investment Adviser indicating the Investment Adviser’s views on whether the Fund’s peer group and/or benchmark index had high, medium, or low relevance given the Fund’s particular investment strategy;

(d) the terms of the Agreements and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Fund;

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

(i) the relative management fee and expense levels of the Fund as compared to those of comparable funds managed by other advisers, as provided by the Outside Data Provider;

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

(iii) comparative information on the advisory fees charged and services provided by the Investment Adviser to certain collective investment vehicles that it manages with comparable investment strategies;

39

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

(f) with respect to the extensive investment performance and expense comparison data provided by the Outside Data Provider, its processes in producing that data for the Fund;

(g) the undertakings of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to implement fee waivers and expense limitations;

(h) information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreement and the transfer agency arrangements of the Fund to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates;

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;

(j) a summary of the “fall-out” benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund, including the fees received by the Investment Adviser’s affiliates from the Fund for transfer agency, portfolio trading, distribution and other services;

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) with respect to the Investment Adviser, portfolio manager ownership of Fund shares; the manner in which portfolio manager compensation is determined; information on the Designated Sub-Advisers’ compensation arrangements; and the number and types of accounts managed by the portfolio managers;

(m) the nature and quality of the services provided to the Fund by its unaffiliated service providers (as well as the Designated Sub-Advisers), and the Investment Adviser’s general oversight and evaluation (including reports on due diligence) of those service providers as part of the administrative services provided under the Management Agreement; and

(n) the Investment Adviser’s and Designated Sub-Advisers’ processes and policies addressing various types of potential conflicts of interest; their approaches to risk management; the annual review of the effectiveness of the Fund’s compliance program; and periodic compliance reports.

The Trustees also received an overview of the Funds’ distribution arrangements. They received information regarding the Funds’ assets and share purchase and redemption activity. Information was also provided to the Trustees relating to revenue sharing payments made by and services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to intermediaries that promote the sale, distribution, and/or servicing of Fund shares.

The presentations made at the Board and Committee meetings and at the Annual Meetings encompassed the Funds and other mutual funds for which the Board has responsibility. In evaluating the Agreements at the Annual Meetings, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of the Funds and the respective services of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, and the Designated Sub-Advisers. In conjunction with these meetings, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations on the topics covered, and the Investment Adviser addressed the questions and concerns of the Trustees, including concerns regarding the investment performance of certain of the funds they oversee. In addition, the Trustees periodically received written materials and oral presentations from the Funds’ various sub-advisers, including the Designated Sub-Advisers. The Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities and other regulatory requirements related to the approval and continuation of mutual fund investment management agreements under applicable law. In addition, the Investment Adviser and its affiliates provided the Independent Trustees with a written response to a formal request for information sent on behalf of the Independent Trustees by their independent legal counsel. The Trustees reviewed a written response prepared by each Designated Sub-Adviser to a similar request for information submitted to the Designated Sub-Adviser by the Investment Adviser. During the course of their deliberations, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions with their independent legal counsel, without representatives of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates present.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Management Agreements

As part of their review, the Trustees considered the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Investment Adviser. In this regard, the Trustees considered both the investment advisory services and non-advisory services that are provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted the transition in the leadership and changes in personnel of various of the Investment Adviser’s portfolio management teams that had occurred in recent periods, and the ongoing recruitment efforts aimed at bringing high quality investment talent to the Investment Adviser. They also noted the Investment Adviser’s commitment to maintaining high quality systems and expending substantial resources to respond to ongoing changes to the market, regulatory and control environment in which the Funds and their service providers operate, including developments associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical events, and economic sanctions, as well as the efforts of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to combat cyber security risks. The Trustees also considered information regarding the Investment Adviser’s and the Funds’ various sub-advisers’ business continuity planning and remote operations capabilities. The Trustees concluded that the Investment Adviser continued to commit substantial financial and operational resources to the Funds and expressed confidence that the Investment Adviser would continue to do so in the future. The Trustees also recognized that the

40

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

Investment Adviser had made significant commitments to address regulatory compliance requirements applicable to the Funds and the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the sub-adviser oversight process that the Investment Adviser had employed, which included areas such as investment analytics, risk management, and compliance.

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2021, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser as of March 31, 2022. The information on each Fund’s investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, and five-year periods ending on the applicable dates. The Trustees also reviewed each Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Funds over time, and reviewed the investment performance of each Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions. The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s representations that each Fund had significant differences from its Outside Data Provider peer group that caused it to be an imperfect basis for comparison. The Trustees also received information comparing each Fund’s performance to that of comparable unregistered funds managed by the Investment Adviser. They considered that the unregistered funds provide an imperfect performance comparison because they are not subject to the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and the Sub-Advisers’ portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

The Trustees noted that the Multi-Manager International Equity Fund had placed in the top half of its performance peer group for the one-, three, and five-year periods ended December 31, 2021 and had underperformed its benchmarked index for the one-year period and outperformed for the three- and five-year periods ended March 31, 2022. They noted that the Multi Manager U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund had placed in the fourth quartile of its performance peer group for the one-year period and the third quartile for the three- and five-years periods ended December 31, 2021 and had outperformed its benchmark index for the one-year period and underperformed for the three- and five-year periods ended March 31, 2022.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

The Trustees considered the contractual terms of the Management Agreement, the fee rates payable by each Fund thereunder. In this regard, the Trustees considered information on the services rendered by the Investment Adviser to the Funds, which included both advisory and administrative services that were directed to the needs and operations of the Funds as registered mutual funds.

In particular, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider regarding the expense rankings of the Funds, as well as additional information provided by the Investment Adviser throughout the year. The analyses provided a comparison of each Fund’s management fee to those of a relevant peer group and category universe; an expense analysis which compared each Fund’s overall net and gross expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and data comparing each Fund’s net expenses to the peer and category medians. The analyses also compared each Fund’s other expenses and fee waivers/ reimbursements to those of the peer group and category medians. The Trustees also considered comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to collective investment vehicles having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds. The Trustees considered that services provided to the Funds differed in various significant respects from the services provided to these collective investment vehicles, which generally operated under less stringent regulatory and financial reporting requirements and required fewer services from the Investment Adviser. The Trustees concluded that the comparisons provided by the Outside Data Provider and the Investment Adviser were useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees and total expenses paid by the Funds.

The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to waive a portion of the management fee payable by each Fund. In this regard the Trustees noted that shareholders that are invested in the Funds consist of institutional clients that have entered into a separate management agreement with the Investment Adviser and pay a single management fee for the Investment Adviser’s management of their accounts, and that the Investment Adviser waives a portion of the management fee with respect to each Fund in order to achieve an effective net management fee rate that is equal to the actual cost of fees paid to the Fund’s sub-advisers. They also considered the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels. In addition, the Trustees noted that shareholders are able to redeem their shares at any time if shareholders believe that the Fund fees and expenses are too high or if they are dissatisfied with the performance of the Fund.

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for each Fund was provided for 2021 and 2020, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Funds. The Trustees also considered that the Funds are offered to the Investment Adviser’s institutional clients as part of an investment model whereby the Funds and other funds act as core “building blocks” with which the client and the Investment Adviser form an investment strategy for the client’s portfolio. The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s representations that its clients benefit from this investment model with increased liquidity, increased investment oversight, access to new investment strategies, economies of scale, and reduced complexity in managing client portfolios. The Trustees noted that, pursuant to the model, clients pay a management fee for the Investment Adviser’s management of their accounts, and that the fund-level management fees in excess of the weighted average sub-advisory fees are waived in order to avoid charging two layers of management fees.

The Trustees considered that there are no breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement for each of the Funds. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Funds; the Funds’ recent purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and the profits realized by them (if any); information comparing the fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer groups; and the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to waive a portion of its management fee and to limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels. The Trustees also considered the relationship between the advisory and sub-advisory fee rate schedules.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds, as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”); (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities transactions (in its capacity as clearing broker) and futures transactions on behalf of the Funds; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Funds on behalf of its other clients; (d) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (e) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with the Funds’ custodian on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Funds; (f) the investment of cash in money market funds managed by the Investment Adviser that will result in increased assets under management for those money market funds; and (g) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Funds’ third-party service providers (including the Funds’ sub-advisers) may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Funds and Their Shareholders

The Trustees also noted that the Funds receive certain other potential benefits as a result of their relationship with the Investment Adviser, including: (a) enhanced servicing from vendors due to the volume of business generated by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates; (b) the advantages received from the Investment Adviser’s knowledge and experience gained from managing other accounts and products; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to hire and retain qualified personnel to provide services to the Funds because of the reputation of the Goldman Sachs organization; (d) the Funds’ access, through the Investment Adviser, to certain firm-wide resources (e.g., proprietary risk management systems and databases), subject to certain restrictions;

42

ACTIVE EQUITY MULTI-MANAGER FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

(e) the Funds’ ability to aggregate assets managed by certain sub-advisers with those of other clients of the Investment Adviser for purposes of applying breakpoints in a sub-advisory agreement; and (f) the Funds’ access to certain affiliated distribution channels.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Funds were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to each Fund until September 30, 2023.

Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements and Performance

In evaluating the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees relied upon materials furnished and presentations made by the Investment Adviser and the Designated Sub-Advisers. In evaluating the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by each Designated Sub-Adviser, the Trustees considered information on the services provided to the Funds by their respective Designated Sub-Advisers, including information about each Designated Sub-Adviser’s (a) personnel and compensation structure; (b) track record in managing the Fund and, if applicable, other funds and/or accounts with investment strategies similar to those employed on behalf of the Funds; (c) policies and procedures in place to address potential conflicts of interest; and (d) compliance program and code of ethics. In this regard, they also considered assessments provided by the Investment Adviser of each Designated Sub-Adviser, the Designated Sub-Adviser’s investment strategies and personnel, and its compliance program. The Trustees also considered information regarding each Designated Sub-Adviser’s business continuity planning and remote operations capabilities. The Trustees also reviewed the operations and investment performance of each Designated Sub-Adviser’s respective sleeve of the applicable Fund since its inception, including a comparison of each Designated Sub-Adviser to relevant benchmark indices based on various metrics, including realized beta, excess return, alpha, and volatility.

Costs of Services Provided

The Trustees reviewed the terms of each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement, including the schedule of fees payable to the Designated Sub-Advisers. They considered any breakpoints in the sub-advisory fee rate payable under each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees noted that the compensation paid to each Designated Sub-Adviser is paid by the Investment Adviser, not by the Funds. The Trustees considered that certain Designated Sub-Advisers had agreed to reduce their sub-advisory fee rate, which benefited shareholders of the applicable Funds in light of the existing management fee waiver arrangement. The Trustees reviewed the blended average of all sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser with respect to each Fund in light of the overall management fee paid by each Fund. They also considered the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to waive a portion of its management fee which is in excess of the weighted average of each Fund’s sub-advisory fees.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees gave weight to various factors, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser to each Designated Sub-Adviser were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement should be approved and continued until September 30, 2023.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the portfolio management team of GQG Partners LLC, the Goldman Sachs GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund’s (the “Fund”) sub-adviser, discusses the Fund’s performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class R6, Class R and Class P Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of -19.55%, -20.12%, -19.23%, -19.35%, -19.17%, -19.73% and -19.22%, respectively. These returns compare to the -24.73% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index (Net, Unhedged) (the “Index”), during the same time period.

Q What economic and market factors most influenced the Fund during the Reporting Period?

A International (or non-U.S. developed markets) equities and emerging markets equities broadly declined during the Reporting Period, with inflation pressures, tightening central bank monetary policy, recession fears, geopolitical conflict and supply-chain issues creating a challenging backdrop for investors.

When the Reporting Period began in November 2021, international and emerging markets equities retreated, as the Omicron variant of COVID-19 spread across regions, dampening investor sentiment and leading to mixed outlooks for the global economic recovery. Travel restrictions were re-imposed to curtail the variant’s spread, and lockdown measures were re-instituted in Europe. Persistently high inflation and supply-chain issues also weighed on investor sentiment. In December, international and emerging markets equities posted gains, as the initial scare around the Omicron variant dissipated given that studies showed its symptoms were less severe than prior variants. Global economic data were encouraging, though inflation remained top of mind for investors. Still, China’s heightened regulations, mainly in the technology sector, dampened investor sentiment.

During the first quarter of 2022, international and emerging markets equities declined amid concerns about elevated global inflation, planned interest rate hikes by the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”), rising bond yields, valuation concerns, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Major countries around the world took a public stance condemning Russia’s action and imposed various economic sanctions,

including removal of Russian financial institutions from bank connectivity network SWIFT, banning transactions with the Russian central bank and halting trading of Russian securities. Such sanctions boosted the price of crude oil in the global markets. Beyond the broader concerns around the geopolitical crisis, the impact on commodity prices reinforced concerns around supply-side inflation and led markets to worry about a potential stagflation scenario—particularly in Europe. (Stagflation is characterized by slow economic growth and high inflation.) Driven by increased market volatility, the U.S. Fed signaled a slower than anticipated pace of monetary policy tightening while retaining a cautionary focus on rising inflation. Other macroeconomic uncertainties included those around regulation in China, the status of Chinese shares listed in the U.S., and slowing economic growth in China, all exacerbated by the imposition of lockdowns and manufacturing halts due to a rise in COVID-19 cases, leading, in turn, to further supply-chain issues.

During the second quarter of 2022, international and emerging markets equities continued to decline. As inflation loomed internationally, the acceleration in global food prices rivaled the move in oil prices. In this environment, central banks in Europe, Asia and South America announced plans to raise interest rates in the next 12 months in an effort to get ahead of rising consumer prices. Supply-chain issues worsened as China initially instituted lockdowns following a surge in COVID-19 cases. However, as the quarter progressed, China began easing its restrictions, thereby mitigating the disruption. In Europe, the geopolitical crisis persisted as a result of the ongoing war in Ukraine and potential gas shortages due to reduced supply from Russia. This was particularly concerning for countries with high energy dependence, such as Italy, France, Spain and Germany.

International and emerging markets equities were down for the third quarter of 2022. Overall, the markets were volatile and facing a number of macroeconomic headwinds, including inflationary pressures and interest rate hikes as the chances of a recession grew. European economies remained depressed by accelerating inflation, rising interest rates and strained supply chains. Europe also continued to battle an

energy crisis and subsequent mobile network blackouts during the quarter. The European Central Bank raised interest rates in July and September, heightening concerns around slowing economic growth and leading to the depreciation of the euro against the U.S. dollar. In China, new lockdowns placed several million Chinese citizens under heavy COVID-19 restrictions, weighing on industrial activity and consumption. However, elsewhere in Asia, the Indian equity market rose, as flows from foreign portfolio investors were net positive for a second consecutive month after nine months of net outflows. In Latin America, the Brazilian equity market also rose, as its labor market and economic activity remained surprisingly strong despite its central bank raising interest rates.

In October 2022, international equities rallied, while emerging markets equities continued to struggle. In Europe, equities benefited from resilient third quarter 2022 earnings from companies that had reported thus far as well as from optimism that the pace of interest rate increases could soon slow. In the emerging markets, Chinese equities fell dramatically, as lockdowns continued to place several cities under COVID-19 restrictions and the closely watched 20th Party Congress in China offered no signal to investors that this strategy would change in the near future. Investor confidence was further dampened following the news that China’s government planned to maintain its “zero-COVID” policy. Still, lifting emerging markets equities somewhat were major transitions of political power, including in Brazil. As a growing list of opposition leaders recognized Lula’s victory as incoming President in Brazil, markets rallied slightly because investors grew increasingly confident that a peaceful transition of power would take place.

For the Reporting Period overall, global equities, as represented by the Index, posted double-digit negative absolute returns. Energy was the only sector in the Index to record a positive absolute return. Utilities, financials and consumer staples each posted a double-digit negative absolute return but were among those sectors that still outperformed the Index during the Reporting Period. The weakest performing sectors in the Index were information technology, consumer discretionary, communication services and real estate, with each generating substantially larger double-digit negative absolute returns during the Reporting Period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund outperformed the Index during the Reporting Period, driven by our asset allocation decisions. These positive results were partially offset by stock selection, which detracted from performance.

Q Which equity market sectors and countries most significantly affected Fund performance?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund benefited from asset allocation, especially our decision to rotate from certain higher valuation sectors to those that have, in our opinion, more reasonable multiples and higher visibility on earnings. A material overweight versus the Index in energy, the only sector in the Index to post a gain, added most to relative performance. The Fund was also aided by a substantial underweight in consumer discretionary. In addition, as equity markets sold off during the Reporting Period, the Fund was helped by its allocation, albeit small, to cash. Overweight positions in the materials and health care sectors detracted modestly from the Fund’s relative returns.

From a stock selection perspective, the Fund was hurt by investments in four of the 11 sectors in the Index. The largest detractors on a relative basis came from the consumer discretionary sector, followed by the financials, information technology and utilities sectors. Within consumer discretionary, the Fund’s investments for part of the Reporting Period in certain Chinese e-commerce businesses detracted from relative results. In financials, the Fund’s European holdings were adversely affected by the pressure put on Europe’s economy by a shortage of fuel and energy supplies, exacerbated by the Russia/Ukraine war and the resulting sanctions on Russian commodities that made up a significant portion of European imports. In information technology, the hawkish stance of global central banks pressured market multiples, while new licensing requirements announced by the U.S. Department of Commerce for companies exporting computing technology and equipment weighed heavily on the semiconductor and equipment companies held by the Fund during the Reporting Period. (Hawkish tends to imply higher interest rates; opposite of dovish. A multiple is a ratio calculated by dividing the market or estimated value of an asset by a specific item on the financial statements as a way to value a stock, e.g. price/earnings, price/book or price/sales.) On the positive side, the Fund benefited from its investments in the consumer staples, health care and materials sectors during the Reporting Period.

From a country perspective, the Fund was helped on a relative basis by select out-of-benchmark positions in the U.S. (specifically, an investment in ExxonMobil), an overweight position versus the Index in Brazil and an underweight position in China. Brazil benefited from a rather strong economy and current account surplus, a budget surplus and ongoing job growth. Also, its central bank started raising interest rates several calendar quarters in advance of many other global central banks. As for China, its political leadership appeared to migrate from a market-driven economic model to one that pays more attention to social stability and common prosperity to narrow a large and growing wealth gap. We witnessed an increasingly onerous, and unpredictable, regulatory environment that targeted

diverse areas, including anti-trust, data security, social equality and capital markets. On the downside, the Fund was hurt by its exposure to Russia and the U.S. Regarding Russia, increasingly antagonistic government rhetoric and actions in late 2021 started to outweigh the positive fundamentals we saw in many Russian companies, and we began to reduce the Fund’s exposure to Russian stocks. That said, after Russia invaded Ukraine in late February 2022, the Moscow Stock Exchange closed for almost four weeks and then prohibited selling by non-Russian investors. Due to impaired price discovery and sanctions from foreign governments on investing in Russia, index provider MSCI Inc. declared in March that the Russian equity market was “uninvestable” and reduced the price of each Russian stock in the Index to less than one cent. (Price discovery is the process of setting the spot price, but most commonly the proper price, for a security, commodity or currency.) As for the U.S., which is not a constituent of the Index, the poor performance was predominantly among the Fund’s investments in global blue-chip information technology stocks.

Q What were some of the Fund’s best-performing individual stocks during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund’s best-performing individual holdings during the Reporting Period were ExxonMobil, Petróleo Brasileiro (“Petrobras”) and Banco Itaú Unibanco.

ExxonMobil is a Texas-based oil and natural gas producer, which also markets petroleum, petrochemicals and other specialty products. Its stock price increased during the Reporting Period, driven by ExxonMobil’s strong earnings and cash flow, including record earnings in the second quarter of 2022. The production profile from the company’s existing assets in Guyana and the Permian Basin in west Texas appeared to be robust. Meanwhile, investors anticipated elevated refining margins for the next several years until planned capacity additions come online in Asia and the Middle East.

Petrobras is a Brazil-headquartered oil and gas exploration and production company with additional operations in refining, transportation, petrochemicals and power generation. Its stock rallied for much of the Reporting Period after its management announced earnings well ahead of consensus expectations, helped in part by strong margins in the company’s refinery business. In addition, Petrobras declared and paid substantial dividends, which were higher than consensus expected. Petrobras posted a dividend yield of 21% for the third quarter of 2022, noting that this return of capital to shareholders was sustainable.

Banco Itaú Unibanco is a Brazil-based financial institution offering retail, corporate and investment banking services as well as life, property and casualty insurance. The company reported better than market expected earnings, as its total loans increased 19% during the third quarter of 2022 versus the third quarter of 2021, while its net interest income

increased 20% in the third quarter of 2022. Its management also raised guidance for the rest of 2022, increasing loan and fee growth targets, citing positive macro and employment conditions.

Q Which stocks detracted most from the Fund’s relative performance during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, Lukoil, Rosneft Oil and Gazprom—all Russia-based energy-related companies— detracted most from the Fund’s relative returns. As mentioned previously, in March, MSCI Inc. declared the Russian market to be “uninvestable” and reduced the price of each Russian stock in its equity indices to less than one cent. Lukoil, which produces, refines and distributes oil and natural gas, also has power generation and transmission assets. Rosneft Oil is an oil and natural gas producer and has refining, petrochemical and pipeline businesses. Gazprom’s primary business is the production, storage and distribution of natural gas.

Q Were there any significant purchases or sales during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s three largest new purchases were Enbridge, TotalEnergies and Deutsche Telekom.

Enbridge is an energy infrastructure company based in Canada. It operates five business segments: liquids pipelines, natural gas pipelines, natural gas utility operations, renewable power generation and marketing services. Enbridge owns what we consider to be high quality assets, and we believe it has a reduced-risk business model that focuses on pipelines and utility franchises. The company has the highest cash flow stability in the energy sector, in our opinion, and has an enviable record of consistent dividend increases. We expect Enbridge to perform well in the near term based on a combination of earnings per share growth and dividends.

TotalEnergies is a France-headquartered oil and gas producer with additional operations in liquefied natural gas, renewable energy sources, refining and petrochemicals. In our opinion, the company has a strong management team and operates with one of the industry’s lowest breakeven cost structures. We expect Europe to pivot away from Russia as a supplier of natural gas in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and we think that TotalEnergies is well-positioned to facilitate that pivot with its liquefied natural gas assets.

Deutsche Telekom provides voice and data communication services to retail and corporate clients in Europe and the U.S. The company, based in Germany, owns 48% of U.S. mobile communications operator T-Mobile. We purchased the stock because free cash flow at T-Mobile is likely, in our

view, to improve significantly during the next three years as that company’s network infrastructure investments decline and the business realizes synergies from its merger with Sprint in 2020.

Among the Fund’s largest sales during the Reporting Period were payment transactions and electronic funds processing company Visa and technology conglomerate and Google parent company Alphabet, each based in the U.S., as well as European financial companies France-based BNP Paribas and Spain-headquartered Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria. We eliminated these holdings in favor of what we considered to be better risk-adjusted opportunities elsewhere.

Q What changes were made to the Fund’s sector and country weightings during the Reporting Period?

A In terms of sector weightings, we reduced the Fund’s exposures to financials, information technology and communication services during the Reporting Period. In financials, we decreased the Fund’s exposure to European financials stocks, as we re-evaluated our assumptions on loss provisions for existing loans and loan growth in the wake of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In information technology, we believed certain information technology and communication services companies had pulled forward earnings from future periods due to changing end-market behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, we thought the recent earnings growth demonstrated by these companies was at risk of downward revision, while the valuation multiples on their stocks were likely to fall. Also, during the Reporting Period, we increased the Fund’s exposures to the energy and materials sectors. In our view, positive fundamental trends were strong in both sectors, even before the war in Ukraine, because of years of underinvestment that had resulted in lower supplies of certain commodities.

Regarding countries, we increased the Fund’s exposures to Brazil, the U.K., Canada and India during the Reporting Period. As mentioned earlier, we considered the Brazilian economy to be quite strong. In addition, we believed the country’s commodity exporters were well-positioned to address potential shortfalls in some Ukrainian and Russian production, while we thought accommodative monetary policy in China should drive an increase in demand for raw materials. Brazil’s financials were also seeing strong underlying fundamental data, including loan growth from both commercial borrowers and consumers. Conversely, we reduced the Fund’s exposures to China, Russia, Spain and the U.S. during the Reporting Period. Although the Fund has been underweight China for some time, we thought the environment had become more challenging for foreign investors, and as a result, we shifted capital to other regions where we believed we had more earnings visibility and saw the potential for better risk-adjusted returns.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund did not use derivatives or similar instruments as a part of its investment strategy during the Reporting Period.

Q How was the Fund positioned relative to its benchmark index at the end of the Reporting Period?

A At the end of the Reporting Period, the Fund was overweight relative to the Index in the energy, health care, consumer staples and materials sectors. Compared to the Index, it was underweight industrials, consumer discretionary, information technology, financials, communication services, real estate and utilities.

In terms of countries, the Fund had modest exposure to the U.S., which is not a constituent of the Index, at the end of the Reporting Period. The Fund was overweight versus the Index in the U.K., Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Germany, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands and Switzerland at the end of the Reporting Period. Compared to the Index, the Fund was underweight Australia and Spain. At the end of the Reporting Period, the Fund had no exposure to the other country constituents of the Index.

Q Were there any changes to the Fund’s portfolio management team during the Reporting Period?

A Effective July 1, 2022, Brian Kersmanc’s title was updated from deputy portfolio manager for the Fund to portfolio manager for the Fund. On the same date, James Anders and Sudarshan Murthy became portfolio managers for the Fund. At the end of the Reporting Period, Rajiv Jain, James Anders, Brian Kersmanc and Sudarshan Murthy served as portfolio managers of the Fund. (Effective December 5, 2022, after the end of the Reporting Period, James Anders no longer served as a portfolio manager for the Fund. Rajiv Jain, Brian Kersmanc and Sudarshan Murthy continued to serve as portfolio managers of the Fund.)

Q What is the Fund’s tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A Despite the equity bear market that emerged in 2022, we chose to see the glass as half full at the end of the Reporting Period. (A bear market is a condition in which securities prices fall 20% or more from recent highs amid widespread pessimism and negative investor sentiment.) At the end of 2021, we had been early adopters of a higher-for-longer inflation argument and had positioned the Fund accordingly, in our opinion, at that time. By the end of the Reporting Period, our view had evolved, and we expected year-over-year inflation comparisons to be more difficult in the near term, which may lead to a deceleration in consumer price increases. In our view, the investment community did not need 2% inflation, the U.S. Fed’s target, to become more bullish on equity markets. If inflation demonstrated a solid inflection to the downside, we thought it would be enough to

FUND RESULTS

unleash the requisite “animal spirits,” economist John Maynard Keynes’ term for the confidence and willingness to invest. Although we are not economists, we monitor macro data as part of our risk framework. We analyze the existing, and potential, companies in the Fund, with a focus on the visibility of their future free cash flows. Ignoring the macro conditions in which these companies operate would impact the accuracy of any investor’s earnings outlook, in our opinion. If the global economy enters a recession, earnings growth may decline in the near term, but we noted at the end of the Reporting Period that valuation multiples for certain companies had compressed to levels that were discounting more aggressive downward revisions to earnings than were warranted, in our view. Adapting the Fund to reflect new information is a hallmark of our process, and we planned to continue going where the data leads us.

In terms of the Fund’s positioning at the end of the Reporting Period, we intended to maintain its overweight versus the Index in the energy sector. In our view, commodity price cycles can last longer than many investors may appreciate due to supply dynamics. The lack of capital spending on oil and natural gas exploration during the last several years, coupled with what we consider to be real discipline in production growth by the larger energy companies and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and Russia, known as OPEC+, could provide a floor above $75 a barrel for crude oil prices in the medium term. Meanwhile, we did not expect demand for oil and natural gas to decline materially if the global economy continued to slow or even entered a mild recession. At the same time, we noted that the global release of strategic petroleum reserves to address higher prices earlier in 2022 appeared to be nearing its end. We believed these reserves were likely to be re-stocked during the next 12-18 months and should act as a source of incremental demand. In addition, we had observed a renewed focus on profitability from many energy companies, resulting in strong free cash flow and solid balance sheets. We had also witnessed a commitment from their management teams to return capital to shareholders. In our opinion, the energy stocks held by the Fund should pay what we consider to be meaningful dividends, which may cushion some potential volatility in their share prices. That said, if the pace of global economic activity deteriorates in the wake of tighter central bank policy and the threat of a deep recession increases, lower demand is likely to affect the energy sector’s near-term earnings power, in our opinion. We planned to monitor the relevant data closely and adapt to the changing environment.

At the end of the Reporting Period, we planned to maintain the Fund’s underweight in the information technology sector. As mentioned previously, the U.S. Commerce Department has mandated new licensing requirements for the export of high-end semiconductors to China to limit their use in military applications. Which technology companies can sell what products to China, and for how long, depends on the type and amount of technology that is sourced in the U.S.

and the overall role of U.S. citizens. These new export license requirements are subject to broad interpretation, in our opinion, and have created uncertainty around the visibility of earnings for certain technology companies.

In addition, at the end of the Reporting Period, we intended to add to the Fund’s holdings in the financials sector, as we have identified select companies that we expect to benefit from a rising interest rate environment and/or solid loan growth.

 Performance Summary

    October 31, 2022

The following graph shows the value, as of October 31, 2022, of a $1,000,000 investment made on December 15, 2016 (commencement of operations) in Institutional Shares at NAV. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI All Country World Index ex USA Index (Net, Unhedged) is shown. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown and in their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The returns set forth below represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted below. Please visit our web site at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2022

    1.    ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust includes the Goldman Sachs GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”). The Fund is a diversified portfolio that currently offers seven classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class R6, Class R and Class P Shares.

Class A Shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Class C Shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00%, which is imposed on redemptions made within 12 months of purchase. Institutional, Investor, Class R6, Class R, and Class P Shares are not subject to a sales charge.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Fund pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust.

GQG Partners LLC (“GQG Partners” or the “Sub-Adviser”) serves as the sub-adviser to the Fund. GSAM compensates the Sub-Adviser directly in accordance with the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Fund is not charged any separate or additional investment advisory fees by the Sub-Adviser.

    2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. The Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A. Investment Valuation — The Fund’s valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.

B. Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Fund may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments.

C. Class Allocations and Expenses — Investment income, realized and unrealized gain (loss), if any, and non-class specific expenses of the Fund are allocated daily based upon the proportion of net assets of each class. Non-class specific expenses directly incurred by the Fund are charged to the Fund, while such expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated across the Fund on a straight-line and/or pro-rata basis depending upon the nature of the expenses. Class specific expenses, where applicable, are borne by the respective share classes and include Distribution and Service, Transfer Agency and Service and Shareholder Administration fees.

D. Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Fund is not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually.

Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2022

    2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( continued)

The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from GAAP. The source of the Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from distributable earnings or capital. Certain components of the Fund’s net assets on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflect permanent GAAP/tax differences based on the appropriate tax character.

E. Foreign Currency Translation — The accounting records and reporting currency of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates at the close of each business day. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is included within net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. Changes in the value of other assets and liabilities as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are included in the Statement of Operations within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency translation. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date the transaction occurred, the effects of which are included within net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

U.S. GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Fund’s policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, volatility and credit spreads), either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require significant unobservable inputs (including GSAM’s assumptions in determining fair value measurement).

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Fund, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. With respect to the Fund’s investments that do not have readily available market quotations, the Trustees have designated the Adviser as the valuation designee to perform fair valuations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Valuation Designee”). GSAM has day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

A. Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value Investments — The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities will be valued at the valid closing bid price for long positions and at the valid closing ask price for short positions (i.e., where there is sufficient volume, during normal exchange trading hours).

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

If no valid bid/ask price is available, the equity security will be valued pursuant to the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. Certain equity securities containing unique attributes may be classified as Level 2.

Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price for long positions or the last ask price for short positions, and are generally classified as Level 2. Securities traded on certain foreign securities exchanges are valued daily at fair value determined by an independent fair value service (if available) under the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. The independent fair value service takes into account multiple factors including, but not limited to, movements in the securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign currency exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign securities exchange. These investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Money Market Funds — Investments in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Underlying Money Market Fund”) are valued at the NAV per share of the Institutional Share class on the day of valuation. These investments are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For information regarding the Underlying Money Market Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Money Market Fund’s shareholder report.

B. Level 3 Fair Value Investments — To the extent that significant inputs to valuation models and other alternative pricing sources are unobservable, or if quotations are not readily available, or if GSAM believes that such quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of the Fund’s investments may be determined under the Valuation Procedures. GSAM, consistent with its procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may make an adjustment to the most recent valuation prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining the Fund’s NAV. To the extent investments are valued using single source broker quotations obtained directly from the broker or passed through from third party pricing vendors, such investments are classified as Level 3 investments.

C. Fair Value Hierarchy — The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments classified in the fair value hierarchy as of October 31, 2022:

Investment Type	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets
Common Stock and/or Other Equity Investments(a)
Asia	$	493,638,498	$	1,688,161,365	$	—	(b)

Total	$	7,892,961,935	$	14,549,918,444	$	—

(a) Amounts are disclosed by continent to highlight the impact of time zone differences between local market close and the calculation of NAV. Security valuations are based on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, which may differ from country of domicile. The Fund utilizes fair value model prices provided by an independent fair value service for international equities, resulting in a Level 2 classification.

(b) Amount includes valuations of Russian investments for which GSAM has determined include significant unobservable inputs as of October 31, 2022. To the extent that the same positions were held as of the Fund’s prior fiscal year end, October 31, 2021, they were classified as either Level 1 or Level 2.

    4.    AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A. Management Agreement — Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Fund, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Fund’s business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, contractual and effective net management fees with GSAM were at the following rates:

	Contractual Management Rate
Fund	First $1 billion			Next $1 billion			Next $3 billion			Next $3 billion			Over $8 billion			Effective Rate			Effective Net Management Rate^
GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund		0.85	%		0.77	%		0.73	%		0.71	%		0.70	%		0.72	%		0.71%

^ Effective Net Management Rate includes the impact of management fee waivers of affiliated underlying funds, if any.

The Fund invests in Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, which is an affiliated Underlying Fund. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Fund in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the affiliated Underlying Fund in which the Fund invests, except those management fees it earns from the Fund’s investments of cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, GSAM waived $1,484,432 of the Fund’s management fee.

B. Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Plans — The Trust, on behalf of Class A and Class R Shares of the Fund, has adopted Distribution and Service Plans subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plans, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A or Class R Shares of the Fund, as applicable, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of Class C Shares of the Fund, has adopted a Distribution Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution Plan, Goldman Sachs as Distributor is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C Shares of the Fund, as set forth below.

	Distribution and/or Service Plan Rates
	Class A*		Class C		Class R*
Distribution and/or Service Plan		0.25%		0.75%		0.50%

* With respect to Class A and Class R Shares, the Distributor at its discretion may use compensation for distribution services paid under the Distribution Plan to compensate service organizations for personal and account maintenance services and expenses as long as such total compensation does not exceed the maximum cap on “service fees” imposed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

C. Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Fund pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class A Shares’ front end sales charge and Class C Shares’ CDSC. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, Goldman Sachs retained the following amounts:

	Front End Sales Charge
Fund	Class A
GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund		$51,303

24                    

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

    4.    AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS ( continued)

During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, Goldman Sachs did not retain any portion of Class C Shares’ CDSC.

D. Service Plan — The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has adopted a Service Plan to allow Class C Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing varying levels of personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan provides for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C Shares of the Fund.

E. Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Fund for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates as follows: 0.16% of the average daily net assets of Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares; 0.03% of the average daily net assets of Class R6 and Class P Shares; and 0.04% of the average daily net assets of Institutional Shares. Goldman Sachs has agreed to waive a portion of its transfer agency fees equal to 0.01% as an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class R6 Shares of the Fund. These arrangements will remain in effect through at least February 28, 2023. Prior to July 1, 2022, fees charged for such transfer agency services were 0.17% of the average daily net assets of Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares.

F. Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Fund (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees and shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of the Fund. Such Other Expense reimbursements, if any, are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Fund is not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Other Expense limitation as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for the Fund is 0.014%. The Other Expense limitation will remain in place through at least February 28, 2023, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangement without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Fund has entered into certain offset arrangements with the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Fund’s expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

GSAM may voluntarily waive a portion of any payments under the Fund’s Distribution and Service Plan, Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan, and Transfer Agency Agreement, and these waivers are in addition to what is stipulated in any contractual fee waiver arrangements (as applicable). These temporary waivers may be modified or terminated at any time at the option of Goldman Sachs without shareholder approval.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, these expense reductions, including any fee waivers and Other Expense reimbursements, were as follows:

Fund	Management Fee Waiver	Transfer Agency Waivers/Credits	Other Expense Reimbursements	Total Expense Reductions
GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund	$1,484,432	$320,788	$4,485,855	$6,291,075

G. Line of Credit Facility — As of October 31, 2022, the Fund participated in a $1,250,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Fund based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 22, 2022, the facility was $1,000,000,000.

H. Other Transactions with Affiliates — For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, Goldman Sachs did not earn any brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions, on behalf of the Fund.

    4.    AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS ( continued)

The table below provides information about the Fund’s investments in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022:

Fund	Underlying Fund	Beginning Value as of October 31, 2021		Purchases at Cost		Proceeds from Sales			Ending Value as of October 31, 2022		Shares as of October 31, 2022		Dividend Income
GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund	Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund — Institutional Shares	$	386,087,268	$	10,613,779,909	$	(10,044,421,862	)	$	955,445,315		955,445,315	$	9,147,476

    5.    PORTFOLIO SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales and maturities of long-term securities for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, were $34,958,526,537 and $29,469,338,810, respectively.

    6.    SECURITIES LENDING

Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the terms and conditions contained therein, the Fund may lend its securities through a securities lending agent, Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Goldman Sachs, to certain qualified borrowers including Goldman Sachs and affiliates. In accordance with the Fund’s securities lending procedures, the Fund receives cash collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund, at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded, and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may experience delay in the recovery of its securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Fund or become insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Dividend income received from securities on loan may not be subject to withholding taxes and therefore withholding taxes paid may differ from the amounts listed in the Statement of Operations. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and as such 1) the remaining contractual maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous and 2) the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions.

The Fund invests the cash collateral received in connection with securities lending transactions in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Government Money Market Fund”), an affiliated series of the Goldman Sachs Trust. The Government Money Market Fund is registered under the Act as an open end investment company, is subject to Rule 2a-7 under the Act, and is managed by GSAM, for which GSAM may receive a management fee of up to 0.16% on an annualized basis of the average daily net assets of the Government Money Market Fund.

In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, GSAL will exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Fund whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If GSAL is unable to purchase replacement securities, GSAL will indemnify the Fund by paying the Fund an amount equal to the market value of the securities loaned minus the value of cash collateral received from the borrower for the loan, subject to an exclusion for any shortfalls resulting from a loss of value in such cash collateral due to reinvestment risk. The Fund’s master netting agreements with certain borrowers provide the right, in the event of a default (including bankruptcy or insolvency), for the non-defaulting party to liquidate the collateral and calculate net exposure to the defaulting party or request additional collateral. However, in the event of a default by a borrower, a resolution authority could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of set-off that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws. The Fund’s loaned securities were all subject to enforceable Securities Lending Agreements and the value of the collateral was at least equal to the value of the cash received. The amounts of the Fund’s overnight and continuous agreements, which represent the gross

    6.    SECURITIES LENDING (continued)

amounts of recognized liabilities for securities lending transactions outstanding as of October 31, 2022, are disclosed as “Payable upon return of securities loaned” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, where applicable.

    7.    TAX INFORMATION (continued)

As of October 31, 2022, the Fund’s aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Tax Cost	$	22,705,208,607
Gross unrealized gain		1,461,446,690
Gross unrealized loss		(1,726,513,524	)
Net unrealized loss	$	(265,066,834	)

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales and differences in the tax treatment of passive foreign investment company investments.

GSAM has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for all open tax years (the current and prior three years, as applicable) and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

    8.    OTHER RISKS

The Fund’s risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Depositary Receipts Risk — Foreign securities may trade in the form of depositary receipts (“Depositary Receipts”), which include American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). To the extent the Fund acquires Depositary Receipts through banks which do not have a contractual relationship with the foreign issuer of the security underlying the Depositary Receipts to issue and service such unsponsored Depositary Receipts, there may be an increased possibility that the Fund would not become aware of and be able to respond to corporate actions such as stock splits or rights offerings involving the foreign issuer in a timely manner. In addition, the lack of information may result in inefficiencies in the valuation of such instruments. Investment in Depositary Receipts does not eliminate all the risks inherent in investing in securities of non-U.S. issuers. The market value of Depositary Receipts is dependent upon the market value of the underlying securities and fluctuations in the relative value of the currencies in which the Depositary Receipts and the underlying securities are quoted.

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the U.S. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation; less public information; less stringent investor protections; less stringent accounting, corporate governance, financial reporting and disclosure standards; and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which a Fund invests. The imposition of sanctions, exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscation of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the U.S. or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is impossible to predict. For example, the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities issued by the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country and increase market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent a Fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions, and significantly impact a Fund’s liquidity and performance. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which a Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. To the extent that a Fund also invests in securities of issuers located in, or economically tied to, emerging markets, these risks may be more pronounced.

28                    

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

    8.    OTHER RISKS (continued)

Foreign Custody Risk — The Fund invests in foreign securities, and as such the Fund may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on the Fund’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Geographic Risk — If the Fund focuses its investments in securities of issuers located in a particular country or geographic region, the Fund may be subjected, to a greater extent than if its investments were less focused, to the risks of volatile economic cycles and/or conditions and developments that may be particular to that country or region, such as: adverse securities markets; adverse exchange rates; adverse social, political, regulatory, economic, business, environmental or other developments; or natural disasters.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, the Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Fund.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — The Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include the Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in the Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Liquidity Risk — The Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If the Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect the Fund’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with the Fund’s investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on the Fund’s liquidity.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, the Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). The value of the securities in which the Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors or governments and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats could also significantly impact the Fund and its investments. Additionally, the Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

    9.    INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, GSAM believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

    10.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events after the Statement of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated, and GSAM has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

    11.    OTHER MATTERS

In late February 2022, Russia began an invasion of Ukraine. Following such invasion, the United States, the European Union, and other countries and entities imposed wide-ranging sanctions on Russia and related entities. Certain Funds have limited market value in Russian and Ukrainian securities, which are being valued to reflect the limited liquidity and transferability in the current environment. With the closure of local Russian markets and imposition of sanctions in late February and early March, there are currently limited portfolio management actions possible as many of these assets are either sanctioned and/or cannot be transferred or settled. These sanctions and current environment could impair the ability of these Funds to buy, sell, hold, receive, deliver or otherwise transact in certain securities and other instruments. The full impact of the sanctions and the conflict on these Funds, the financial markets and the global economy is not yet known. Management is continuing to monitor these developments and evaluate other impacts they may have on these Funds.

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust II and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Goldman Sachs GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund (one of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust II, referred to hereafter as the “Fund”) as of October 31, 2022, the related statement of operations for the year ended October 31, 2022, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2022, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of October 31, 2022, 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 ended October 31, 2022 and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

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

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended October 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class A, Class C, Administration, Preferred, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class R6, Class R or Class P Shares of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments (with respect to Class A Shares for certain Funds), contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions (generally with respect to Class C Shares), and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A, Class C, and Class R and Service Shares); and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class A, Class C, Administration, Preferred, Institutional, Service, Investor, Class R6, Class R or Class P Shares of the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from May 1, 2022 through October 31, 2022, which represents a period of 184 days of a 365-day year. This projection assumes that annualized expense ratios were in effect during the period.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using the Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended October 31, 2022. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory

Agreement (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs GQG Partners International Opportunities Fund (the “Fund”) is an investment portfolio of Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Fund at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. In addition, the Board determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) on behalf of the Fund.

The Management Agreement was approved for continuation until June 30, 2023 at a meeting on June 9-10, 2022 and was most recently approved for continuation until September 30, 2023 at a meeting held on September 19-20, 2022 (together, the “Annual Meetings”) by the Board, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”). At the Annual Meetings, the Board also considered the sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement” and, together with the Management Agreement, the “Agreements”) between the Investment Adviser and GQG Partners LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”).

The review process undertaken by the Trustees spans the course of the year and culminates with the Annual Meetings. To assist the Trustees in their deliberations, the Trustees have established a Contract Review Committee (the “Committee”), comprised of the Independent Trustees. The Committee held five meetings over the course of the year since the Management Agreement was last approved. At those Committee meetings, regularly scheduled Board or other committee meetings, and/or the Annual Meetings, matters relevant to the renewal of the Management Agreement and the Sub-Advisory Agreement were considered by the Board, or the Independent Trustees, as applicable. With respect to the Fund, such matters included:

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and the Sub-Adviser, including, as applicable, information about:

(i) the structure, staff, and capabilities of the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio management teams;

(ii) the groups within the Investment Adviser and its affiliates that support the portfolio management teams or provide other types of necessary services, including fund services groups (e.g., accounting and financial reporting, tax, shareholder services, and operations); controls and risk management groups (e.g., legal, compliance, valuation oversight, credit risk management, internal audit, compliance testing, market risk analysis, finance, and central funding); sales and distribution support groups, and others (e.g., information technology and training);

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

(iv) the Investment Adviser’s financial resources and ability to hire and retain talented personnel and strengthen its operations; and

(v) the parent company’s support of the Investment Adviser and its mutual fund business, as expressed by the firm’s senior management;

(b) information on the investment performance of the Fund, including comparisons to the performance of similar mutual funds, as provided by a third-party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the contract review process (the “Outside Data Provider”), and a benchmark performance index; and information on general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Fund invests;

(c) information provided by the Investment Adviser indicating the Investment Adviser’s views on whether the Fund’s peer group and/or benchmark index had high, medium, or low relevance given the Fund’s particular investment strategy;

(d) the terms of the Agreements and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Fund;

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

(i) the relative management fee and expense levels of the Fund as compared to those of comparable funds managed by other advisers, as provided by the Outside Data Provider; and

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time;

(f) with respect to the extensive investment performance and expense comparison data provided by the Outside Data Provider, its processes in producing that data for the Fund;

(g) the undertakings of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to implement fee waivers and expense limitations;

(h) information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreement and the transfer agency and distribution and service arrangements of the Fund to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates;

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;

(j) a summary of the “fall-out” benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund, including the fees received by the Investment Adviser’s affiliates from the Fund for transfer agency, securities lending, portfolio trading, distribution and other services;

34                    

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory

Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) portfolio manager ownership of Fund shares; the manner in which portfolio manager compensation is determined; information on the Sub-Adviser’s compensation arrangements; and the number and types of accounts managed by the portfolio managers;

(m) the nature and quality of the services provided to the Fund by its unaffiliated service providers (as well as the Sub-Adviser), and the Investment Adviser’s general oversight and evaluation (including reports on due diligence) of those service providers as part of the administrative services provided under the Management Agreement; and

(n) the Investment Adviser’s and Sub-Adviser’s processes and policies addressing various types of potential conflicts of interest; their approaches to risk management; the annual review of the effectiveness of the Fund’s compliance program; and periodic compliance reports.

The Trustees also received an overview of the Fund’s distribution arrangements. They received information regarding the Fund’s assets, share purchase and redemption activity, and payment of distribution and service fees. Information was also provided to the Trustees relating to revenue sharing payments made by and services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to intermediaries that promote the sale, distribution, and/or servicing of Fund shares. The Trustees also discussed the broad range of other investment choices that are available to Fund investors, including the availability of comparable funds managed by other advisers.

The presentations made at the Board and Committee meetings and at the Annual Meetings encompassed the Fund and other mutual funds for which the Board has responsibility. In evaluating the Agreements at the Annual Meetings, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of the Fund and the respective services of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, and the Sub-Adviser. In conjunction with these meetings, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations on the topics covered, and the Investment Adviser addressed the questions and concerns of the Trustees, including concerns regarding the investment performance of certain of the funds they oversee. In addition, the Trustees periodically received written materials and oral presentations from the Sub-Adviser. The Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities and other regulatory requirements related to the approval and continuation of mutual fund investment management agreements under applicable law. In addition, the Investment Adviser and its affiliates provided the Independent Trustees with a written response to a formal request for information sent on behalf of the Independent Trustees by their independent legal counsel. The Trustees reviewed a written response prepared by the Sub-Adviser to a similar request for information submitted to the Sub-Adviser by the Investment Adviser. During the course of their deliberations, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions with their independent legal counsel, without representatives of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates present.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Management Agreement

As part of their review, the Trustees considered the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser. In this regard, the Trustees considered both the investment advisory services and non-advisory services that are provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted the transition in the leadership and the changes in personnel of various of the Investment Adviser’s portfolio management teams that had occurred in recent periods, and the ongoing recruitment efforts aimed at bringing high quality investment talent to the Investment Adviser. They also noted the Investment Adviser’s commitment to maintaining high quality systems and expending substantial resources to respond to ongoing changes to the market, regulatory and control environment in which the Fund and its service providers operate, including developments associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical events, and economic sanctions, as well as the efforts of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to combat cyber security risks. The Trustees also considered information regarding the Investment Adviser’s and the Sub-Adviser’s business continuity planning and remote operations capabilities. The Trustees concluded that the Investment Adviser continued to commit substantial financial and operational resources to the Fund and expressed confidence that the Investment Adviser would continue to do so in the future. The Trustees also recognized that the Investment Adviser had made significant commitments to address regulatory compliance requirements applicable to the Fund and the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the Sub-Adviser oversight process that the Investment Adviser had employed, which included areas such as investment analytics, risk management and compliance.

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Fund. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of the Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2021, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser as of March 31, 2022. The information on the Fund’s

                35

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory

Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

investment performance was provided for the one-, three-, and five-year periods ending on the applicable dates. The Trustees also reviewed the Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Fund over time, and reviewed the investment performance of the Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Fund’s risk profile, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

The Trustees noted that the Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s performance peer group for the one- and five-year periods and in the third quartile for the three-year period ended December 31, 2021 and had outperformed the Fund’s benchmark index for the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended March 31, 2022.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

The Trustees considered the contractual terms of the Management Agreement, the fee rates payable by the Fund thereunder, and the net amount retained by the Investment Adviser after payment of sub-advisory fees. In this regard, the Trustees considered information on the services rendered by the Investment Adviser to the Fund, which included both advisory and administrative services that were directed to the needs and operations of the Fund as a registered mutual fund.

In particular, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider regarding the expense rankings of the Fund, as well as additional information provided by the Investment Adviser throughout the year. The analyses provided a comparison of the Fund’s management fee and breakpoints to those of a relevant peer group and category universe; an expense analysis which compared the Fund’s overall net and gross expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and data comparing the Fund’s net expenses to the peer and category medians. The analyses also compared the Fund’s other expenses and fee waivers/reimbursements to those of the peer group and category medians. The Trustees concluded that the comparisons provided by the Outside Data Provider and the Investment Adviser were useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees and total expenses paid by the Fund.

The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to limit certain expenses of the Fund that exceed a specified level. In addition, the Trustees noted that shareholders are able to redeem their shares at any time if shareholders believe that the Fund fees and expenses are too high or if they are dissatisfied with the performance of the Fund.

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed the Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for the Fund was provided for 2021 and 2020, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability. They noted the impact that the substantial asset growth of the Fund had on the associated revenues and expenses.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund. The Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement for the Fund at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of the Fund:

36                    

GOLDMAN SACHS GQG PARTNERS INTERNATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory

Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

Average Daily Net Assets	Management Fee Annual Rate
First $1 billion	0.85%
Next $1 billion	0.77
Next $3 billion	0.73
Next $3 billion	0.71
Over $8 billion	0.70

The Trustees noted that the breakpoints were designed to share potential economies of scale, if any, with the Fund and its shareholders as assets under management reach those asset levels. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Fund; the Fund’s recent purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and the profits realized by them (if any); information comparing the fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer group; and the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to waive certain fees and to limit certain expenses of the Fund that exceed a specified level, as well as Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC’s (“Goldman Sachs”) undertaking to waive a portion of the transfer agency fees paid by the Fund’s Class R6 Shares. The Trustees also considered the relationship between the advisory and sub-advisory fee rate schedules. Upon reviewing these matters at the Annual Meetings, the Trustees concluded that the fee breakpoints represented a means of assuring that benefits of scalability, if any, would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels. They also noted that the Investment Adviser had passed along savings to shareholders of the Fund, which had asset levels above the highest breakpoint.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs; (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities transactions (in its capacity as clearing broker) and futures transactions on behalf of the Fund; (c) fees earned by Goldman Sachs Agency Lending (“GSAL”), an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, as securities lending agent (and fees earned by the Investment Adviser for managing the fund in which the Fund’s cash collateral is invested); (d) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Fund on behalf of its other clients; (e) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (f) Goldman Sachs’ retention of certain fees as Fund distributor; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with the Fund’s custodian on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Fund; (h) the investment of cash and cash collateral in money market funds managed by the Investment Adviser that will result in increased assets under management for those money market funds; and (i) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Fund’s third-party service providers (including the Sub-Adviser) may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Fund and Its Shareholders

The Trustees also noted that the Fund receives certain other potential benefits as a result of their relationship with the Investment Adviser, including: (a) enhanced servicing from vendors due to the volume of business generated by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates; (b) the advantages received from the Investment Adviser’s knowledge and experience gained from managing other accounts and products; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to hire and retain qualified personnel to provide services to the Fund because of the reputation of the Goldman Sachs organization; (d) the Fund’s access, through the Investment Adviser, to certain firm-wide resources (e.g., proprietary risk management systems and databases), subject to certain restrictions; (e) the Fund’s ability to participate in the securities lending program administered by GSAL, as measured by the revenue received by the Fund in connection with the program; and (f) the Fund’s access to certain affiliated distribution channels.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by the Fund were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to the Fund until September 30, 2023.

Agreement (Unaudited) (continued)

Sub-Advisory Agreement with GQG Partners LLC

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement

In evaluating the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees relied upon materials furnished and presentations made by the Investment Adviser and Sub-Adviser. In evaluating the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by the Sub-Adviser, the Trustees considered information on the services provided to the Fund by the Sub-Adviser, including information about the Sub-Adviser’s (a) personnel and compensation structure; (b) track record in managing the Fund and other funds and/or accounts with investment strategies similar to those employed on behalf of the Fund; (c) policies and procedures in place to address potential conflicts of interest; and (d) compliance program and code of ethics. In this regard, they also considered assessments provided by the Investment Adviser of the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser’s investment strategies and personnel, and its compliance program. The Trustees also considered information regarding the Sub-Adviser’s business continuity planning and remote operations capabilities.

Costs of Services Provided

The Trustees reviewed the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, including the schedule of fees payable to the Sub-Adviser. They considered the breakpoints in the sub-advisory fee rate payable under the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees noted that the compensation paid to the Sub-Adviser is paid by the Investment Adviser, not by the Fund. They also considered the expense limitations that substantially reduce the fees retained by the Investment Adviser, and that the retention of the Sub-Adviser does not directly increase the fees incurred by the Fund for advisory services. They considered the Investment Adviser’s belief that the relationship between the management fees paid by the Fund and the sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser is appropriate given the level of services the Investment Adviser provides to the Fund and significant differences in cost drivers and risks associated with the respective services offered by the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to various factors, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser to the Sub-Adviser were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that the Sub-Advisory Agreement should be approved and continued until September 30, 2023.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

As of the close of business on January 12, 2022, the HFRXTM Global Hedge Fund Index was no longer used as a secondary benchmark of the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Alternatives Fund (the “Fund”). Below, the Goldman Sachs Alternative Investments & Manager Selection (“AIMS”) Group discusses the Fund’s performance and positioning for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class R6, Class R and Class P Shares generated average annual total returns, without sales charges, of -5.31%, -6.08%, -5.07%, -5.10%, -5.06%, -5.57% and -5.07%, respectively. These returns compare to the 0.79% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the ICE BofAML Three-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index (the “ICE BofA Index”), which reflects no deductions for fees or expenses, during the same time period.

References to the Fund’s benchmark mentioned herein are for informational purposes only, and unless otherwise noted, are not an indication of how the Fund is managed. The use of the ICE BofA Index as the Fund’s benchmark does not imply the Fund is being managed like cash and does not imply low risk or low volatility.

Q What economic and market factors most influenced the financial markets as a whole during the Reporting Period?

A The capital markets broadly declined during the Reporting Period, as persistent inflation, supply-chain shortages, recession fears and tightening central bank monetary policy created a challenging backdrop for investors.

Global equity markets started the Reporting Period strongly, with the MSCI All Country World Index (“MSCI ACWI”) Investable Market Index rising 1.2% in November and December 2021 overall to post a double-digit gain for the 2021 calendar year. For the remainder of the Reporting Period, however, global equity markets were volatile and broadly negative on the back of elevated inflation, rising interest rates and global supply-chain disruptions. In response to stubbornly high inflation, major central banks around the world picked up the pace of interest rate hikes,

including the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”), which raised the targeted federal funds rate to a range between 3.00% and 3.25% by the end of October 2022, its highest level since 2008. Uncertainty about whether central banks could successfully combat inflation and also avoid an economic recession kept equity valuations depressed. Geopolitical tensions further dampened market sentiment, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 pushed up energy prices and as ongoing COVID-19-related lockdowns in China continued to disrupt global supply chains. For the Reporting Period overall, the MSCI ACWI Investable Market Index, representing global equities, returned -19.96%, with growth stocks broadly underperforming value stocks. From a sector perspective, the higher interest rate environment and macroeconomic uncertainty contributed to a sell-off in long-duration growth stocks within the information technology and consumer discretionary sectors. (Long-duration stocks are those that tend to deliver a higher proportion of their cash flows in the distant future. Duration is a measure of sensitivity to changes in interest rates.) Energy was the best performing sector in the MSCI ACWI Investable Market Index during the Reporting Period, benefiting from rising commodity prices. From a regional standpoint, North American stocks performed better than European, Australian and Asian stocks, but each global region recorded negative absolute returns overall. Emerging markets equities were particularly challenged during the Reporting Period, mainly by the uncertain geopolitical environment and the sharp decline in China’s stock market. The MSCI China All Shares Index returned -42.58% during the Reporting Period overall, as economic growth concerns fueled by the Chinese government’s “zero-COVID” policies and its continuing regulatory crackdown weighed on investor sentiment. Instability and geopolitical concerns within Eastern Europe were also a drag on the performance of emerging markets equities, especially in Hungary and

1

Poland, with a number of index providers, including MSCI Inc., excluding Russian securities from their indices in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Credit markets broadly fell during the Reporting Period, as interest rates rose and credit spreads widened. (Credit spreads are yield differentials between corporate bonds and U.S. Treasury securities of comparable maturity.) Other headwinds included the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, elevated inflation, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, supply-chain disruptions and changing central bank monetary policies. Bank loans held up better than most other fixed income sectors during the Reporting Period, benefiting from their floating rate nature and strong investor demand. On the other hand, investment grade corporate bonds, which tend to be of longer duration, were hurt by higher interest rates and lagged most other segments of the fixed income market. High yield corporate bonds also weakened during the Reporting Period. Within the emerging markets, U.S. dollar-denominated bonds trailed local currency-denominated bonds due to rising U.S. interest rates and widening credit spreads. Additionally, the exclusion of Russian debt from a number of fixed income indices, along with the resulting fallout on other index constituents, broadly weighed on emerging markets debt. Commodity-rich regions, such as the Middle East and Latin America, generally outperformed Asia and Europe as commodity prices increased during the Reporting Period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund generally seeks to achieve its investment objective by allocating its assets among multiple unaffiliated investment managers (“Underlying Managers”) that employ one or more non-traditional and alternative investment strategies. The AIMS Group is responsible for making recommendations with respect to hiring, terminating or replacing the Fund’s Underlying Managers as well as for determining the Fund’s asset allocations. The AIMS Group applies a multifaceted process with respect to manager due diligence, portfolio construction and risk management.

During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s results can be attributed to the performance of the Fund’s Underlying Managers.

At various points during the Reporting Period, the Fund had 13 Underlying Managers, though not all were allocated capital. The 13 Underlying Managers were Algert Global LLC (“Algert”); Artisan Partners LP (“Artisan”); Bardin Hill Arbitrage IC Management LP (“Bardin Hill”); Brigade Capital Management, LP (“Brigade”); Crabel

Capital Management, LLC (“Crabel”); GQG Partners LLC (“GQG Partners”); Longfellow Investment Management Co., LLC (“Longfellow”); Marathon Asset Management, L.P. (“Marathon”); River Canyon Fund Management LLC (“River Canyon”); Russell Investments Commodity Advisor, LLC (“RICA”); TCW Investment Management Company LLC (“TCW”), Trium Capital LLP (“Trium”), and Wellington Management Company LLC (“Wellington”).

These 13 Underlying Managers represented five strategies—equity long/short (Wellington); event driven and credit (Bardin Hill, Brigade, Longfellow, Marathon and River Canyon); tactical trading (Crabel); relative value (Algert, TCW and Trium); and dynamic equity (Artisan and GQG Partners). RICA managed a beta completion mandate for the Fund, which provided us with an additional tool to manage the beta of the Fund and is not used to override any views and/or decisions of the Fund’s Underlying Managers. (Beta is a measure of the sensitivity of a portfolio’s returns to broad market returns.)

Of the five Underlying Managers with allocated capital for the entire Reporting Period, three produced negative absolute returns and two produced positive absolute returns. Wellington generated negative absolute returns between the start of the Reporting Period and January 6, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. Marathon produced negative absolute returns between the beginning of the Reporting Period and December 2, 2021, when its assets were redeemed. Longfellow generated negative absolute returns from December 2, 2021, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. TCW produced negative absolute returns from May 27, 2022, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. RICA generated a positive absolute return between November 17, 2021, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. Algert, Brigade and Trium did not have allocated capital during the Reporting Period.

Q Which strategies most significantly affected Fund performance?

A Five strategies were employed by the Underlying Managers at various points during the Reporting Period. Four of these five strategies generated negative absolute returns and one generated a positive absolute return. The Fund did not have an allocation to the opportunistic fixed income strategy during the Reporting Period.

The Fund’s dynamic equity strategy detracted most from performance, with both Underlying Managers recording negative returns. From a sector perspective, these results were driven by losses in the information technology,

2

consumer discretionary, financials and communication services sectors. Among the largest detractors were managed health care company UnitedHealth Group, technology and e-commerce company Amazon.com and financial software maker Intuit—all U.S. companies. At the regional level, exposure to North America, predominantly the U.S., hurt performance, offset slightly by exposure to the emerging markets. Dynamic equity strategies generally involve investing in equity instruments, often with a long-term view, and may have low excess return correlations to traditional long-only equity strategies. Dynamic equity strategies are less likely to track a benchmark than traditional long-only strategies, and dynamic equity managers are less constrained than traditional long-only managers with respect to factors such as position concentration, sector and country weights, style and market capitalization.

The event driven and credit strategy overall also detracted from the Fund’s returns, as gains within merger arbitrage were more than offset by losses in structured credit. Meanwhile, the performance of special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) strategies was rather flat during the Reporting Period amid economic uncertainty and regulatory concerns that had the effect of decreasing SPAC initial public offering (“IPO”) activity. Within merger arbitrage, positions in the industrials and energy sectors added to results. Within structured credit, losses were concentrated among mortgage-backed securities and, to a much lesser extent, asset-backed securities. A top contributor during the Reporting Period was a U.S. information, data and market measurement firm that performed well on news that a large shareholder had stopped opposing an acquisition deal and had agreed to vote in favor of it. A top detractor was an Australian supplier of information solutions to the global auto industry, which was pressured by delays in the signing of a definitive acquisition agreement. Event driven and credit strategies seek to achieve gains from market movements in security prices caused by specific corporate events or changes in perceived relative value. These strategies may include, among others, merger arbitrage, distressed credit, opportunistic credit and value with a catalyst investing style.

The equity long/short strategy had a slightly negative impact on the Fund’s performance between the beginning of the Reporting Period and January 2022, when we removed the Fund’s allocation to the strategy. The Underlying Manager’s exposure to the information technology sector detracted most. Equity long/short strategies generally involve long and short investing, based on fundamental evaluations, research and various analytical measurements, in equity and equity-related investments. Equity long/short managers may,

for example, buy stocks they expect to outperform or they believe are undervalued, and may also sell short stocks they believe will underperform or they believe are overvalued. Long positions benefit from an increase in the price of the underlying instrument or asset class, while short positions benefit from a decrease in that price.

The relative value strategy detracted slightly from the Fund performance between May 2022, when we reestablished the Fund’s allocation, and the end of the Reporting Period. Exposure to the financials and communications services sectors added most to returns during this time period, while short index hedges detracted. (A short index hedge is an investment strategy used to protect (hedge) against the risk of a declining index price in the future.) Relative value strategies seek to identify and capitalize on price discrepancies between related assets (assets that share a common financial factor, such as interest rates, an issuer or an index). Relative value strategies generally rely on arbitrage (the simultaneous purchase and sale of related assets) and may exist between two issuers or within the capital structure of a single issuer. These strategies attempt to exploit a source of return with low correlation to the market and include, among others, fixed income arbitrage, convertible arbitrage, volatility arbitrage, statistical arbitrage and equity market neutral strategies.

The tactical trading strategy added to the Fund’s returns during the Reporting Period, as the Underlying Manager’s gains in foreign currency positions and fixed income more than offset marginal losses in equities and commodities. Within commodities, performance was mixed overall, with positive returns in metals but losses across the broader commodities complex, including livestock, energy and agriculture. Crude oil was one of the most challenging market segments during the Reporting Period. Within macro strategies, opportunistic models contributed positively to performance, primarily across the equity markets, while factor timing, reversal and volatility breakout models detracted from returns. Broadly speaking, the whipsawing of the equity markets during the Reporting Period hurt volatility breakout models but benefited opportunistic models. Tactical trading strategies seek to produce total return by long and short investing across global fixed income, currency, equity and commodity markets. Tactical trading managers may employ various investment styles of which the two major strategies are macro and managed futures. Tactical trading managers that employ a global macro style may select their investments based upon fundamental and/or technical analysis. Tactical trading managers that employ a managed futures investing style may use quantitative modeling

    3

techniques, e.g., determining an asset’s value based upon an analysis of price history, price momentum and the asset’s value relative to that of other assets, among other factors. Some tactical trading managers may employ both fundamental analysis and quantitative modeling techniques. Tactical trading managers typically have no bias to be long, short or neutral, but at any given time may have significant long or short exposures in a particular market or asset.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A The Underlying Managers of the Fund employ derivatives and similar instruments as part of their underlying strategies to hedge market exposure and/or to gain implicit leverage, subject to the constraints of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The derivatives used most by Underlying Managers during the Reporting Period were equity futures, interest rate futures, options (single name and index), warrants, rights, interest rate swaps, total return swaps (single name and index), forward contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, structured securities, commodity-linked derivatives, inverse floaters and their related floaters, interest only securities and stripped mortgage-backed securities. Overall, the use of derivatives and similar instruments by the Underlying Managers had a positive impact on the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s allocations and Underlying Managers during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, shifts in the Fund’s asset allocation were made in response to the market environment and were also the result of changes in allocations to the Fund’s various strategies. One of the shifts in strategy allocation during the Reporting Period was an increase in the Fund’s exposure to the tactical trading strategy, accomplished through a larger allocation to Crabel. We also reinitiated the Fund’s exposure to the relative value strategy, accomplished by allocating assets to TCW. We funded these increases by decreasing the Fund’s exposure to the event driven and credit strategy and by reducing, and then removing, exposure to the equity long/short strategy. In the process of removing the allocation to the equity long/short strategy, we fully redeemed assets from Wellington, though Wellington remained an Underlying Manager of the Fund. In addition, during November 2021, we reestablished the Fund’s allocation to a beta completion mandate, managed by RICA.

During the Reporting Period overall, we added three Underlying Managers and did not remove any Underlying Managers. In November 2021, Longfellow was added as an Underlying Manager, joining Bardin Hill, Brigade, Marathon and River Canyon, within the event driven and credit strategy, and was allocated capital in December 2021. Longfellow focuses on the equity or fixed income securities of companies involved in corporate event-driven activities, specifically SPAC arbitrage. We funded the allocation to Longfellow by fully redeeming Marathon, though Marathon remained an Underlying Manager of the Fund. During February 2022, TCW became an Underlying Manager within the relative value strategy, focusing on high dividend-paying stock sectors, including real estate and financials. TCW was allocated capital in May 2022. In June, Trium became an Underlying Manager of the Fund within the relative value strategy, joining TCW. Trium, which focuses on opportunities created by index and capital market arbitrage, did not have allocated capital during the Reporting Period.

At the start of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated 7.2% to the equity long/short strategy, 40.0% to the event driven and credit strategy, 20.8% to the tactical trading strategy and 32.0% to the dynamic equity strategy, with the remainder in cash and cash equivalents. At the end of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated 55.8% to the event driven and credit strategy, 22.2% to the tactical trading strategy, 11.4% to the dynamic equity strategy and 10.6% to the relative value strategy.

Q What is the Fund’s tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A We intend to continue to closely monitor global economic growth, monetary policy and market volatility, while using active portfolio management and alternative investment strategies to position the Fund as we aim to deliver long-term growth of capital across a variety of market environments. We believe the flexibility to allocate tactically across these alternative strategies may enable us to navigate a variety of market conditions and provide investors with significant diversification benefits. We intend to continue to actively explore adding new managers with what we consider to be unique alternative capabilities as market conditions warrant.

 Index Definitions

The ICE BofA Three-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index is comprised of a single issue purchased at the beginning of the month and held for a full month. At the end of the month that issue is sold and rolled into a newly selected issue. The issue selected at each month-end rebalancing is the outstanding Treasury Bill that matures closest to, but not beyond, three months from the rebalancing date. To qualify for selection, an issue must have settled on or before the month-end rebalancing date. While the index will often hold the Treasury Bill issued at the most recent 3-month auction, it is also possible for a seasoned 6-month Bill to be selected.

# The Fund pays/receives annual coupon payments in accordance with the swap contract(s). On the termination date of the swap contract(s), the Fund will either receive from or pay to the counterparty an amount equal to the net of the accrued financing fees and the value of the reference security subtracted from the original notional cost (notional multiplied by the price change of the reference security, converted to U.S. Dollars).

* There are no upfront payments on the swap contracts, therefore the unrealized gain (loss) on the swap contracts is equal to their market value.

(a) Payments made monthly.

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2022

    1.    ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust includes the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Alternatives Fund (the “Fund”). The Fund is a diversified portfolio and currently offers seven classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class R6 Shares, Class R and Class P Shares.

Class A Shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Class C Shares are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00%, which is imposed on redemptions made within 12 months of purchase. Institutional, Investor, Class R6, Class R and Class P Shares are not subject to a sales charge.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Fund pursuant to a management agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust. As of October 31, 2022, GSAM had sub-advisory agreements (the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) for the Fund with Algert Global LLC (“Algert”), Artisan Partners Limited Partnership (“Artisan Partners”), Bardin Hill Arbitrage IC Management LP (“Bardin Hill”), Brigade Capital Management, LP (“Brigade”), Crabel Capital Management, LLC (“Crabel”), GQG Partners LLC (“GQG Partners”), Longfellow Investment Management Co., LLC (“Longfellow”), Marathon Asset Management, L.P. (“Marathon”), River Canyon Fund Management LLC (“River Canyon”), Russell Investments Commodity Advisor, LLC (“RICA”), TCW Investment Management Company LLC (“TCW”), Trium Capital LLP (“Trium”) and Wellington Management Company LLP (“Wellington”) (the “Underlying Managers”). Crabel also serves as an Underlying Manager for the Subsidiary (as defined below). Pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Underlying Managers are responsible for making investment decisions and managing the investments of the Fund. GSAM compensates the Underlying Managers directly in accordance with the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements. The Fund is not charged any separate or additional investment advisory fees by the Underlying Managers.

    2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. The Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A. Basis of Consolidation for the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Alternatives Fund — The Cayman Commodity — MMA IV, LLC (the “Subsidiary”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, is currently a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund. The Subsidiary acts as an investment vehicle for the Fund to enable the Fund to gain exposure to certain types of commodity-linked derivative instruments. The Fund is the sole shareholder of the Subsidiary and it is intended that the Fund will remain the sole shareholder and will continue to control the Subsidiary. All inter-fund balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of October 31, 2022, the Fund’s net assets were $150,990,378 of which, $3,368,029, or 2.2%, represented the Subsidiary’s net assets.

B. Investment Valuation — The Fund’s valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.

C. Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Fund may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments.

Distributions received from the Fund’s investments in U.S. real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Fund as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2022

    2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

For derivative contracts, unrealized gains and losses are recorded daily and become realized gains and losses upon disposition or termination of the contract. Upfront payments, if any, are made or received upon entering into a swap agreement and are reflected in the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Upfront payments are recognized over the contract’s term/event as realized gains or losses, with the exception of forward starting swap contracts whose realized gains or losses are recognized from the effective start date. For securities with paydown provisions, principal payments received are treated as a proportionate reduction to the cost basis of the securities, and excess or shortfall amounts are recorded as income. For treasury inflation protected securities (“TIPS”), adjustments to principal due to inflation/ deflation are reflected as increases/decreases to interest income with a corresponding adjustment to cost.

Class Allocations and Expenses — Investment income, realized and unrealized gain (loss), if any, and non-class specific expenses of the Fund are allocated daily based upon the proportion of net assets of each class. Non-class specific expenses directly incurred by the Fund are charged to the Fund, while such expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated across the Fund on a straight-line and/or pro-rata basis depending upon the nature of the expenses. Class specific expenses, where applicable, are borne by the respective share classes and include Distribution and Service and Transfer Agency fees.

D. Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Fund is not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually.

The Subsidiary is classified as a controlled foreign corporation under the Code. Therefore, the Fund is required to increase its taxable income by its share of the Subsidiary’s income. Net losses of the Subsidiary cannot be deducted by the Fund in the current period nor carried forward to offset taxable income in future periods.

Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from GAAP. The source of the Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from distributable earnings or capital. Certain components of the Fund’s net assets on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflect permanent GAAP/tax differences based on the appropriate tax character.

E. Foreign Currency Translation — The accounting records and reporting currency of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates at the close of each business day. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is included within net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. Changes in the value of other assets and liabilities as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency translation. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date the transaction occurred, the effects of which are included within net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

F. Commission Recapture — GSAM, on behalf of certain Funds, may direct portfolio trades, subject to seeking best execution, to various brokers who have agreed to rebate a portion of the commissions generated. Such rebates are made directly to the Fund as cash payments and are included in net realized gain (loss) from investments on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

U.S. GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Fund’s policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair

36                    

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, volatility and credit spreads), either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require significant unobservable inputs (including GSAM’s assumptions in determining fair value measurement).

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Fund, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. With respect to the Fund’s investments that do not have readily available market quotations, the Trustees have designated the Adviser as the valuation designee to perform fair valuations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Valuation Designee”).GSAM has day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Fund’s investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

A. Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value Investments — The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities will be valued at the valid closing bid price for long positions and at the valid closing ask price for short positions (i.e., where there is sufficient volume, during normal exchange trading hours). If no valid bid/ask price is available, the equity security will be valued pursuant to the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. Certain equity securities containing unique attributes may be classified as Level 2.

Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price for long positions or the last ask price for short positions, and are generally classified as Level 2. Securities traded on certain foreign securities exchanges are valued daily at fair value determined by an independent fair value service (if available) under the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. The independent fair value service takes into account multiple factors including, but not limited to, movements in the securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign currency exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign securities exchange. These investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Special Purpose Acquisition Companies — The Fund may invest in stock of, warrants to purchase stock of, and other interests in, special purpose acquisition companies or similar special purpose entities that pool funds to seek potential merger and acquisition opportunities (collectively, “SPACs”). SPACs are companies that have no operations but go public with the intention of merging with or acquiring a company using the proceeds of the SPAC’s initial public offering. Stock purchased in a SPAC’s initial public offering are valued the same as other equity securities as noted above. Certain private SPAC investments (e.g. “founder shares” and private warrants), however, may be subject to forfeiture or expire worthless if certain events do not take place. A Probability Value Adjustment (PVA) is applied to such securities until such contingencies have been satisfied. An LVA may also be applied to securities which are subject to externally imposed and legally enforceable trading restrictions. Such positions are

                37

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2022

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

generally classified as Level 3. The Fund may also enter into an unfunded commitment to purchase securities in a PIPE transaction and will satisfy the commitment if and when the SPAC completes its merger or acquisition. The Fund may purchase securities in a SPAC PIPE transaction only upon such contingencies being satisfied. Such investments are valued similar to founder shares mentioned above and are generally classified as Level 3.

Money Market Funds — Investments in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund (“Underlying Money Market Fund”) are valued at the NAV per share of the Institutional Share class on the day of valuation. These investments are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. For information regarding the Underlying Money Market Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Money Market Fund’s shareholder report.

Debt Securities — Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued daily on the basis of quotations supplied by dealers or an independent pricing service. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider: (i) yield or price with respect to bonds that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value. With the exception of treasury securities of G7 countries, which are generally classified as Level 1, these investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

i. Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities — Mortgage-backed securities represent direct or indirect participations in, or are collateralized by and payable from, mortgage loans secured by residential and/or commercial real estate property. Asset-backed securities include securities whose principal and interest payments are collateralized by pools of other assets or receivables. The value of certain mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities (including adjustable rate mortgage loans) may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates. The value of these securities may also fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers.

Asset-backed securities may present credit risks that are not presented by mortgage-backed securities because they generally do not have the benefit of a security interest in collateral that is comparable to mortgage assets. Some asset-backed securities may only have a subordinated claim on collateral.

Stripped mortgage-backed securities are usually structured with two different classes: one that receives substantially all interest payments (interest-only, or “IO” and/or high coupon rate with relatively low principal amount, or “IOette”), and the other that receives substantially all principal payments (principal-only, or “PO”) from a pool of mortgage loans. Little to no principal will be received at the maturity of an IO; as a result, periodic adjustments are recorded to reduce the cost of the security until maturity. These adjustments are included in interest income.

Securities Sold Short — Securities sold short are those securities which the Fund has sold but which it does not own. When the Fund sells a security it does not own, it must borrow the security that was sold and generally delivers the proceeds from the short sale to the broker through which it made the short sale. In addition, cash and certain investments in securities may be used to collateralize the securities sold short. Each day the securities sold short transaction is open, the liability to replace the borrowed security is marked to market and an unrealized gain or loss is recorded. While the transaction remains open, the Fund may also incur expenses for any dividends or interest which will be paid to the lender of the securities as well as a fee to borrow the delivered security. During the term of the short sale, the value of the securities pledged as collateral on short sales is required to exceed the value of the securities sold short. The market value of securities pledged as collateral is included in the Schedule of Investments.

Derivative Contracts — A derivative is an instrument whose value is derived from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors. The Fund enters into derivative transactions to hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices, and/or currency exchange rates, to increase total return, or to gain access to certain markets or attain exposure to other underliers. For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Fund and cash collateral received, if any, is reported separately on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities as either due to broker/receivable for collateral on certain derivative contracts. Non-cash collateral pledged by the Fund, if any, is noted in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

Exchange-traded derivatives, including futures and options contracts, are generally valued at the last sale or settlement price on the exchange where they are principally traded. Exchange-traded options without settlement prices are generally valued at the midpoint of the bid and ask prices on the exchange where they are principally traded (or, in the absence of two-way trading, at the last bid price for long positions and the last ask price for short positions). Exchange-traded derivatives typically fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) and centrally cleared derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value OTC and centrally cleared derivatives depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC and centrally cleared derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC and centrally cleared derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence.

i. Forward Contracts — A forward contract is a contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a specified price on a future date. A forward contract settlement can occur on a cash or delivery basis. Forward contracts are marked-to-market daily using independent vendor prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Cash and certain investments may be used to collateralize forward contracts.

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a forward contract in which the Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked to market daily by using the outright forward rates or interpolating based upon maturity dates, where available. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

ii. Futures Contracts — Futures contracts are contracts to buy or sell a standardized quantity of a specified commodity or security. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund deposits cash or securities in an account on behalf of the broker in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin requirement. Subsequent payments are made or received by the Fund equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable with a corresponding offset to unrealized gains or losses.

iii. Options — When the Fund writes call or put options, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. Swaptions are options on swap contracts.

Upon the purchase of a call option or a put option by the Fund, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms.

iv. Swap Contracts — Bilateral swap contracts are agreements in which the Fund and a counterparty agree to exchange periodic payments on a specified notional amount or make a net payment upon termination. Bilateral swap transactions are privately negotiated in the OTC market and payments are settled through direct payments between the Fund and the counterparty. By contrast, certain swap transactions are subject to mandatory central clearing. These swaps are executed through a derivatives clearing member (“DCM”), acting in an agency capacity, and submitted to a central counterparty (“CCP”) (“centrally cleared swaps”), in which case all payments are settled with the CCP through the DCM. Swaps are marked-to-market daily using pricing vendor quotations, counterparty or clearinghouse prices or model prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Upon entering into a swap contract, the Fund is required to satisfy an initial margin requirement by delivering cash or securities to the counterparty (or in some cases, segregated in a triparty

account on behalf of the counterparty), which can be adjusted by any mark-to-market gains or losses pursuant to bilateral or centrally cleared arrangements. For centrally cleared swaps the daily change in valuation, if any, is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin.

A total return swap is an agreement that gives the Fund the right to receive or pay the appreciation or depreciation, as applicable, in the value of a specified security, an index, a basket of securities or indices or other instrument in return for a fee paid to the counterparty, which will typically be an agreed upon interest rate. If the underlying asset declines in value over the term of the swap, the Fund may also be required to pay the dollar value of that decline to the counterparty.

B. Level 3 Fair Value Investments — To the extent that significant inputs to valuation models and other alternative pricing sources are unobservable, or if quotations are not readily available, or if GSAM believes that such quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of the Fund’s investments may be determined under the Valuation Procedures. GSAM, consistent with its procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may make an adjustment to the most recent valuation prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining the Fund’s NAV. To the extent investments are valued using single source broker quotations obtained directly from the broker or passed through from third party pricing vendors, such investments are classified as Level 3 investments.

C. Fair Value Hierarchy — The following is a summary of the Fund’s investments and derivatives classified in the fair value hierarchy as of October 31, 2022:

(b) Aggregate of amounts include $13,977, which represents the payments to be made pursuant to bilateral agreements should counterparties exercise their “right to terminate” provisions based on, among others, the Fund’s performance, their failure to pay on their obligations or failure to pledge collateral. Such amount does not include incremental charges directly associated with the close-out of the agreements. It also does not reflect the fair value of any assets pledged as collateral which, through the daily margining process, substantially offsets the aforementioned amounts and for which the Fund is entitled to a full return.

The following tables set forth, by certain risk types, the Fund’s gains (losses) related to these derivatives and their indicative volumes for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022. These gains (losses) should be considered in the context that these derivative contracts may have been executed to create investment opportunities and/or economically hedge certain investments, and accordingly, certain gains (losses) on such derivative contracts may offset certain (losses) gains attributable to investments. These

gains (losses) are included in “Net realized gain (loss)” or “Net change in unrealized gain (loss)” on the Consolidated Statement of Operations:

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the relevant values for each derivative type was as follows:

	Average Number of Contracts, Notional Amounts, or Shares/Units(a)
Futures contracts	Forward contracts	Swap Agreements	Purchased Options	Written Options
664	$94,333,893	$17,438,829	65,365	38,218

(a) Amounts disclosed represent average number of contracts for futures contracts, notional amounts for forward contracts, swap agreements for purchased options and written options, based on absolute values, which is indicative of volume for this derivative type, for the months that the Fund held such derivatives during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Fund mitigate its counterparty risk, the Fund may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivatives counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Fund and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives (including forward foreign currency exchange contracts, and certain options and swaps), and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

Collateral and margin requirements differ between exchange traded derivatives and OTC derivatives. Margin requirements are established by the broker or clearing house for exchange-traded and centrally cleared derivatives (financial futures contracts, options and centrally cleared swaps) pursuant to governing agreements for those instrument types. Brokers can ask for margin in excess of the minimum in certain circumstances. Collateral terms are contract-specific for OTC derivatives. For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the marked to market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by the Fund and the counterparty. Additionally, the Fund may be required to post initial margin to the counterparty, the terms of which would be outlined in the confirmation of the OTC transaction.

Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to the Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance. The Fund attempts to mitigate

42                    

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

    4.    INVESTMENTS IN DERIVATIVES ( continued)

counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that the Underlying Managers believe to be of good standing and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

Additionally, the netting of assets and liabilities and the offsetting of collateral pledged or received are based on contractual netting/set-off provisions in the ISDA Master Agreement or similar agreements. However, in the event of a default or insolvency of a counterparty, a court could determine that such rights are not enforceable due to the restrictions or prohibitions against the right of setoff that may be imposed in accordance with a particular jurisdiction’s bankruptcy or insolvency laws.

The following table sets forth the Fund’s net exposure for derivative instruments that are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements as of October 31, 2022:

     5.    AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreement — Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Fund, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Fund’s business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, contractual and effective net management fees with GSAM were at the following rates:

	Contractual Management Rate								Effective Net Management Rate*^(a)
First	Next		Next		Over
$2 billion	$3 billion		$3 billion		$8 billion		Effective Rate
1.90%		1.80%		1.71%		1.68%		1.90%	1.51%

* GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee in order to achieve a net management fee rate of 1.57% as an annual percentage of the average daily net assets of the Fund as defined in the Fund’s most recent prospectus. This arrangement will be effective through at least February 28, 2023, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangement without the approval of the Trustees.

^ Effective Net Management Rate includes the impact of management fee waivers of affiliated underlying funds, if any.

(a) Reflects combined management fees paid to GSAM under the Agreement and the Subsidiary Agreements as defined below after waivers.

The Fund invests in Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, which is an affiliated Underlying Fund. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Fund in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the affiliated Underlying Fund in which the Fund invests. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, GSAM waived $98,402 of the Fund’s management fee.

GSAM also provides management services to the Subsidiary pursuant to a Subsidiary Management Agreement (the “Subsidiary Agreement”) and is entitled to a management fee accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of 0.42% of the Subsidiary’s average daily net assets. In consideration of the Subsidiary’s management fee, and for as long as the Subsidiary Agreement remains in effect, GSAM has contractually agreed to waive irrevocably a portion of the Fund’s management

     5.    AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS ( continued)

fee in an amount equal to the management fee accrued and paid to GSAM by the Subsidiary under the Subsidiary Agreement. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, GSAM waived $16,417 of the Fund’s management fee.

B.  Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Plans — The Trust, on behalf of Class A and Class R Shares of the Fund, has adopted Distribution and Service Plans subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution and Service Plans, Goldman Sachs, which serves as distributor (the “Distributor”), is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services and personal and account maintenance services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A or Class R Shares of the Fund, as applicable, as set forth below.

The Trust, on behalf of Class C Shares of the Fund, has adopted a Distribution Plan subject to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Distribution Plan, Goldman Sachs as Distributor is entitled to a fee accrued daily and paid monthly for distribution services, which may then be paid by Goldman Sachs to authorized dealers. These fees are equal to an annual percentage rate of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C Shares of the Fund, as set forth below.

	Distribution and/or Service Plan Rates
	Class A*			Class C			Class R*
Distribution and/or Service Plan		0.25	%		0.75	%		0.50%

* With respect to Class A and Class R Shares, the Distributor at its discretion may use compensation for distribution services paid under the Distribution Plan to compensate service organizations for personal and account maintenance services and expenses as long as such total compensation does not exceed the maximum cap on “service fees” imposed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

C. Distribution Agreement — Goldman Sachs, as Distributor of the shares of the Fund pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, may retain a portion of the Class A Shares’ front end sales charge and Class C Shares’ CDSC. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, Goldman Sachs retained the following amounts:

	Front End Sales Charge
Fund	Class A
Multi-Manager Alternatives		$138

During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, Goldman Sachs did not retain any portion of Class C Shares’ CDSC.

D. Service Plan — The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has adopted a Service Plan to allow Class C Shares to compensate service organizations (including Goldman Sachs) for providing varying levels of personal and account maintenance services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan provides for compensation to the service organizations equal to an annual percentage rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C Shares of the Fund.

E. Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Fund for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates as follows: 0.16% of the average daily net assets of Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares; 0.04% of the average daily net assets of Institutional Shares; and 0.03% of the average daily net assets of Class R6 and Class P Shares. Goldman Sachs has agreed to waive a portion of the transfer agency fees equal to 0.06% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares of the Fund through at least February 28, 2023 (the “TA Fee Waiver”). Prior to such date, Goldman Sachs may not terminate the arrangement without approval of the Board of Trustees.

F. Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Fund (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees and shareholder administration fees (as applicable), taxes, dividends and interest payments on securities sold short, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to 0.194% of the average daily net

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

     5.    AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS ( continued)

assets of the Fund and limit the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and interest payments on securities sold short, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) of Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class R6, Class R and Class P Shares to (after the application of the TA Fee Waiver described above) 2.12%, 2.87%, 1.80%, 1.87%, 1.79%, 2.37%, and 1.79%, respectively. These Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least February 28, 2023, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees.

In addition, the Fund has entered into certain offset arrangements with the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Fund’s expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, these expense reductions, including any fee waivers and Other Expense reimbursements, were as follows:

			Other	Total
	Management	Transfer Agency	Expense	Expense
Fund	Fee Waiver	Waivers/Credits	Reimbursements	Reductions
Multi-Manager Alternatives	$630,857	$10,526	$1,199,743		$1,841,126

G. Line of Credit Facility — As of October 31, 2022, the Fund participated in a $1,250,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Fund based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the Fund did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 22, 2022, the facility was $1,000,000,000.

H. Other Transactions with Affiliates — For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, Goldman Sachs earned $8,834 in brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions, including futures transactions executed with Goldman Sachs as the Futures Commission Merchant, on behalf of the Fund.

As of October 31, 2022, The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. was the beneficial owner of approximately 31% of Class R6 and 99% of Class R Shares of the Fund.

     7.    TAX INFORMATION

There were no distributions by the Fund during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021.

As of October 31, 2022, the components of accumulated earnings (losses) on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income — net	$       626,258
Capital loss carryforwards(1):
Perpetual Short-Term	(38,910,611)
Timing differences (Straddle Loss Deferral)	(67,381)
Unrealized gains (loss) — net	(1,240,027)
Total accumulated earnings (loss) net	$(39,591,761)

(1) The Fund utilized $5,449,098 of capital losses in the current fiscal year.

As of October 31, 2022, the Funds’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Tax Cost	$139,161,341
Gross unrealized gain	3,284,781
Gross unrealized loss	(4,524,808)
Net unrealized loss	$  (1,240,027)

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales, net mark to market gains/(losses) on regulated futures contracts, net mark to market gains/(losses) on foreign currency contracts, and differences in the tax treatment of underlying fund investments, passive foreign investment company investments, and swap transactions.

The Fund reclassed $575,965 from paid in capital to distributable earnings for the year ending October 31, 2022. In order to present certain components of the Funds’ capital accounts on a tax-basis, certain reclassifications have been recorded to the Funds’ accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset value of the Funds’ and result primarily from primarily from net operating losses and differences in the tax treatment of underlying fund investments.

GSAM has reviewed the Fund’s tax positions for all open tax years (the current and prior three years, as applicable) and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

    8.    OTHER RISKS

The Fund’s risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Derivatives Risk — The Fund’s use of derivatives and other similar instruments (together, referred to in this paragraph as “derivatives”) may result in loss, including due to adverse market movements. Derivatives, which may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in securities, currencies or other instruments, may be illiquid or less liquid, volatile, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying instruments may produce disproportionate losses to the Fund. Changes in the value of a derivative may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for the Fund. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will not, or lacks the capacity or authority to, fulfill its contractual obligation. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and instruments. The use of derivatives is also subject to operational and legal risks. Operational risks refer to risks related to potential operational issues, including documentation issues, settlement issues, system failures, inadequate controls, and human error. Legal risks refer to the risks of loss resulting from insufficient documentation, or legality or enforceability of a contract. Losses from derivatives can also result from a lack of correlation between changes in the value of derivative instruments and the portfolio assets (if any) being hedged.

Floating and Variable Rate Obligations Risk — Floating rate and variable rate obligations are debt instruments issued by companies or other entities with interest rates that reset periodically (typically daily, monthly, quarterly, or semiannually) in response to changes in the market rate of interest on which the interest rate is based. Such market rates are generally the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), the Prime Rate of a designated U.S. bank, the Federal Funds Rate, or another base lending rate used by commercial lenders. For floating and variable rate obligations, there may be a lag between an actual change in the underlying interest rate benchmark and the reset time for an interest payment of such an obligation, which could harm or benefit the Fund, depending on the interest rate environment or other circumstances. In a rising interest rate environment, for example, a floating or variable rate obligation that does not reset immediately would prevent the Fund from taking full advantage of rising interest rates in a timely manner. However, in a declining interest rate environment, the Fund may benefit from a lag due to an obligation’s interest rate payment not being immediately impacted by a decline in interest rates.

At the end of 2021, certain LIBORs were discontinued, but the most widely used LIBORs may continue to be provided on a representative basis until June 2023. The unavailability or replacement of LIBOR may affect the value, liquidity or return on certain Fund investments and may result in costs incurred in connection with closing out positions and entering into new trades. Any pricing adjustments to a Fund’s investments resulting from a substitute reference rate may also adversely affect the Fund’s performance and/or NAV.

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the U.S. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation; less public information; less stringent investor protections; less stringent accounting, corporate governance, financial reporting and disclosure standards; and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which a Fund invests. The imposition of sanctions, exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscation of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the U.S. or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is impossible to predict. For example, the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities issued by the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country and increase market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent a Fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions, and significantly impact a Fund’s liquidity and performance. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which a Fund has exposure to foreign

                47

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

      Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

              October 31, 2022

    8.    OTHER RISKS (continued)

currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. To the extent that a Fund also invests in securities of issuers located in, or economically tied to, emerging markets, these risks may be more pronounced.

Foreign Custody Risk — The Fund invests in foreign securities, and as such the Fund may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on the Fund’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, fixed income securities or instruments held by the Fund will generally decline in value. The Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk in connection with the type and extent of certain monetary policy changes made by the Federal Reserve, such as target interest rate changes. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short-term fixed income securities or instruments. A wide variety of market factors can cause interest rates to rise, including central bank monetary policy, rising inflation and changes in general economic conditions. The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and the Fund’s investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Fund. A sudden or unpredictable increase in interest rates may cause the volatility in the market and may decease the liquidity of the Fund’s investments, which would make it harder for the Fund to sell the investments at an advantageous time.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, the Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Fund.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — The Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include the Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause the Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact the Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in the Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Liquidity Risk — The Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, the Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If the Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect the Fund’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with the Fund’s investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on the Fund’s liquidity.

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

    8.    OTHER RISKS (continued)

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, the Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). The value of the securities in which the Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors or governments and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats could also significantly impact the Fund and its investments. Additionally, the Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Multi-Manager Approach Risk — The Fund’s performance depends on the ability of the Investment Adviser in selecting, overseeing, and allocating Fund assets to the Underlying Managers. The Underlying Managers’ investment styles may not always be complementary. The Fund’s multi-manager approach may result in the Fund investing a significant percentage of its assets in certain types of investments, which could be beneficial or detrimental to the Fund’s performance depending on the performance of those investments and the overall market environment. The Fund’s Underlying Managers may underperform the market generally or underperform other investment managers that could have been selected for the Fund. Because the Fund’s Underlying Managers may trade with counterparties, prime brokers, clearing brokers or futures commission merchants on terms that are different than those on which the Investment Adviser would trade, and because each Underlying Manager applies its own risk analysis in evaluating potential counterparties for the Fund, the Fund may be subject to greater counterparty risk than if it was managed directly by the Investment Adviser.

Short Position Risk — The Fund may enter into a short position through a futures contract, an option or swap agreement or through short sales of any instrument that the Fund may purchase for investment. Taking short positions involves leverage of a Fund’s assets and presents various risks, including counterparty risk. If the value of the underlying instrument or market in which the Fund has taken a short position increases, then the Fund will incur a loss equal to the increase in value from the time that the short position was entered into plus any related interest payments or other fees. Taking short positions involves the risk that losses may be disproportionate, may exceed the amount invested, and may be unlimited. To the extent that the Fund uses the proceeds it receives from a short position to take additional long positions, the risks associated with the short position, including leverage risks, may be heightened, because doing so increases the exposure of the Fund to the markets and therefore could magnify changes to the Fund’s NAV.

Special Purpose Acquisition Companies Risk — The Fund may invest in stock, warrants, and other securities of SPACs or similar special purpose entities that pool funds to seek potential acquisition opportunities. Because SPACs and similar entities are in essence blank check companies without operating history or ongoing business other than seeking acquisitions, in a predetermined time frame (typically 18-24 months) the value of their securities is particularly dependent on the ability of the entity’s management to identify and complete a profitable acquisition. An investment in a SPAC is subject to a variety of risks, including that (i) a portion of the monies raised by the SPAC for the purpose of effecting an acquisition or merger may be expended prior to the transaction for payment of taxes and other purposes; (ii) prior to any acquisition or merger, a SPAC’s assets are typically invested in U.S. government securities, money market funds and similar investments whose returns or yields may be significantly lower than those of the Fund’s other investments; (iii) the Fund generally will not receive significant income from its investments in SPACs and, therefore, the Fund’s investments in SPACs will not significantly contribute to the Fund’s distributions to shareholders; (iv) an attractive acquisition or merger target may not be identified at all, in which case the SPAC will be required to return any remaining monies to shareholders, or an attractive acquisition target may become scarce if the number of SPACs seeking to acquire operating businesses increases, which could negatively impact the value of SPAC shares held by the Fund; (v) under any circumstances in which the Fund receives a refund of all or a portion of its original investment (which typically represents a pro rata share of the proceeds of the SPAC’s assets, less any applicable taxes), the returns on that investment may be negligible, and the Fund may be subject to opportunity costs to the extent that alternative investments would have produced higher returns; (vi) the Fund may be delayed in receiving any redemption or liquidation proceeds from a SPAC to which it is entitled; (vii) an investment in a SPAC may be diluted by additional later offerings of interests in the SPAC or by other investors exercising existing rights to purchase shares of the SPAC; (viii) only a thinly traded market for shares of or interests in a SPAC may develop,

or there may be no market at all, leaving the Fund unable to sell its interest in a SPAC or to sell its interest only at a price below what the Fund believes is the SPAC interest’s intrinsic value; and (ix) the values of investments in SPACs may be highly volatile and may depreciate significantly over time.

Tax Risk — The Fund will seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in the Subsidiary and/ or commodity index-linked structured notes, as applicable. Historically, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) issued private letter rulings (“PLRs”) in which the IRS specifically concluded that income and gains from investments in commodity index-linked structured notes (the “Notes Rulings”) or a wholly-owned foreign subsidiary that invests in commodity-linked instruments are “qualifying income” for purposes of compliance with Subchapter M of the Code. However, the Fund has not received a PLR, and is/are not able to rely on PLRs issued to other taxpayers. The IRS recently issued final regulations that, would generally treat the Fund’s income inclusion with respect to a subsidiary as qualifying income either if (A) there is a distribution out of the earnings and profits of a subsidiary that are attributable to such income inclusion or (B) such inclusion is derived with respect to the Fund’s business of investing in stock, securities, or currencies.

    The IRS also issued a revenue procedure, which states that the IRS will not in the future issue PLRs that would require a determination of whether an asset (such as a commodity index-linked note) is a “security” under the Investment Company Act of 1940. In connection with issuing such revenue procedure, the IRS has revoked the Notes Ruling on a prospective basis. In light of the revocation of the Notes Rulings, the Fund has limited its investments in commodity index-linked structured notes. The Fund has obtained an opinion of counsel that the Fund’s income from investments in the Subsidiary should constitute “qualifying income.” However, no assurances can be provided that the IRS would not be able to successfully assert that the Fund’s income from such investments was not “qualifying income,” in which case the Fund would fail to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Code if over 10% of its gross income were derived from these investments. If the Fund failed to qualify as a RIC, it would be subject to federal and state income tax on all of its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates with no deduction for any distributions paid to shareholders, which would significantly adversely affect the returns to, and could cause substantial losses for, Fund shareholders.

    9.    INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, GSAM believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

    10.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events after the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated, and GSAM has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

    11.    OTHER MATTERS

In late February 2022, Russia began an invasion of Ukraine. Following such invasion, the United States, the European Union, and other countries and entities imposed wide-ranging sanctions on Russia and related entities. Certain Funds have limited market value in Russian and Ukrainian securities, which are being valued to reflect the limited liquidity and transferability in the current environment. With the closure of local Russian markets and imposition of sanctions in late February and early March, there are currently limited portfolio management actions possible as many of these assets are either sanctioned and/or cannot be transferred or settled. These sanctions and current environment could impair the ability of these Funds to buy, sell, hold, receive, deliver or otherwise transact in certain securities and other instruments. The full impact of the sanctions and the conflict on these Funds, the

financial markets and the global economy is not yet known. Management is continuing to monitor these developments and evaluate other impacts they may have on these Funds.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust II and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Alternatives Fund

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statement of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated schedule of investments, of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Alternatives Fund and its subsidiary (one of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust II, referred to hereafter as the “Fund”) as of October 31, 2022, the related consolidated statement of operations for the year ended October 31, 2022, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2022, including the related notes, and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of October 31, 2022, 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 ended October 31, 2022 and the consolidated financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

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

We conducted our audits of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended October 31,  2022 (Unaudited)    

As a shareholder of Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class R6, Class R or Class P Shares of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments (with respect to Class A Shares), contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions (with respect to Class C Shares), and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A and Class R Shares); and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class A, Class C, Institutional, Investor, Class R6, Class R or Class P Shares of the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from May 1, 2022 through October 31, 2022, which represents a period of 184 days of a 365 day year. This projection assumes that annualized expense ratios were in effect during the period.

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

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

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using the Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended October 31, 2022. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

Fund	Class A	Class C	Institutional	Investor	Class R6	Class R	Class P
Multi-Manager Alternatives	2.10%	2.79%	1.79%	1.82%	1.67%	2.33%	1.76%

+ Hypothetical expenses are based on the Fund’s actual annualized net expenses ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses.

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Alternatives Fund (the “Fund”) is an investment portfolio of Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Fund at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. The Fund employs a “manager of managers” structure, whereby Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) is responsible for selecting sub-advisers (subject to Board approval), allocating the Fund’s assets among them, and overseeing their day-to-day management of Fund assets. In addition, the Board determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Investment Adviser on behalf of the Fund.

The Management Agreement was approved for continuation until June 30, 2023 at a meeting on June 9-10, 2022 and was most recently approved for continuation until September 30, 2023 at a meeting held on September 19-20, 2022 (together, the “Annual Meetings”) by the Board, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”). At the Annual Meetings, the Board also considered the sub-advisory agreements (each a “Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement” and, together with the Management Agreement, the “Agreements”) between the Investment Adviser and each of Algert Global LLC, Artisan Partners Limited Partnership, Bardin Hill Arbitrage IC Management LP, Brigade Capital Management, LP, Crabel Capital Management, LLC, GQG Partners LLC, Marathon Asset Management, L.P., River Canyon Fund Management LLC, Russell Investments Commodity Advisor, LLC, and Wellington Management Company LLP (each a “Designated Sub-Adviser” and collectively, the “Designated Sub-Advisers”).

The review process undertaken by the Trustees spans the course of the year and culminates with the Annual Meetings. To assist the Trustees in their deliberations, the Trustees have established a Contract Review Committee (the “Committee”), comprised of the Independent Trustees. The Committee held five meetings over the course of the year since the Management Agreement was last approved. At those Committee meetings, regularly scheduled Board or other committee meetings, and/or the Annual Meetings, matters relevant to the renewal of the Management Agreement and the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements were considered by the Board, or the Independent Trustees, as applicable. With respect to the Fund, such matters included:

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, and the Designated Sub-Advisers, including, as applicable, information about:

(i) the structure, staff, and capabilities of the Investment Adviser and the Designated Sub-Advisers and the Designated Sub-Advisers’ portfolio management teams;

(ii) the groups within the Investment Adviser and its affiliates that support the portfolio management teams or provide other types of necessary services, including fund services groups (e.g., accounting and financial reporting, tax, shareholder services, and operations); controls and risk management groups (e.g., legal, compliance, valuation oversight, credit risk management, internal audit, compliance testing, market risk analysis, finance, and central funding); sales and distribution support groups, and others (e.g., information technology and training);

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

(iv) the Investment Adviser’s financial resources and ability to hire and retain talented personnel and strengthen its operations; and

(v) the parent company’s support of the Investment Adviser and its mutual fund business, as expressed by the firm’s senior management;

(b) information on the investment performance of the Fund, including comparisons to the performance of similar mutual funds, as provided by a third-party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the contract review process (the “Outside Data Provider”), benchmark performance indices, and commingled investment vehicles with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Adviser, and information on general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Fund invests;

(c) information provided by the Investment Adviser indicating the Investment Adviser’s views on whether the Fund’s peer group and/or benchmark index had high, medium, or low relevance given the Fund’s particular investment strategy;

(d) the terms of the Agreements and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Fund;

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

(i) the relative management fee and expense levels of the Fund as compared to those of comparable funds managed by other advisers, as provided by the Outside Data Provider;

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

(iii) comparative information on the advisory fees charged and services provided by the Investment Adviser to certain collective investment vehicles that it manages with comparable investment strategies;

54                    

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

(f) with respect to the extensive investment performance and expense comparison data provided by the Outside Data Provider, its processes in producing that data for the Fund;

(g) the undertakings of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to implement fee waivers and/or expense limitations;

(h) information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreement and the transfer agency arrangements of the Fund to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates;

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;

(j) a summary of the “fall-out” benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund, including the fees received by the Investment Adviser’s affiliates from the Fund for transfer agency, portfolio trading, distribution and other services;

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) with respect to the Investment Adviser, portfolio manager ownership of Fund shares; the manner in which portfolio manager compensation is determined; information on the Designated Sub-Advisers’ compensation arrangements; and the number and types of accounts managed by the portfolio managers;

(m) the nature and quality of the services provided to the Fund by its unaffiliated service providers (as well as the Designated Sub-Advisers), and the Investment Adviser’s general oversight and evaluation (including reports on due diligence) of those service providers as part of the administrative services provided under the Management Agreement; and

(n) the Investment Adviser’s and Designated Sub-Advisers’ processes and policies addressing various types of potential conflicts of interest; their approaches to risk management; the annual review of the effectiveness of the Fund’s compliance program; and periodic compliance reports.

The Trustees also received an overview of the Fund’s distribution arrangements. They received information regarding the Fund’s assets, share purchase and redemption activity, and payment of distribution and service fees. Information was also provided to the Trustees relating to revenue sharing payments made by and services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to intermediaries that promote the sale, distribution, and/or servicing of Fund shares.

The presentations made at the Board and Committee meetings and at the Annual Meetings encompassed the Fund and other mutual funds for which the Board has responsibility. In evaluating the Agreements at the Annual Meetings, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of the Fund and the respective services of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, and the Designated Sub-Advisers. In conjunction with these meetings, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations on the topics covered, and the Investment Adviser addressed the questions and concerns of the Trustees, including concerns regarding the investment performance of certain of the funds they oversee. In addition, the Trustees periodically received written materials and oral presentations from the Designated Sub-Advisers. The Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities and other regulatory requirements related to the approval and continuation of mutual fund investment management agreements under applicable law. In addition, the Investment Adviser and its affiliates provided the Independent Trustees with a written response to a formal request for information sent on behalf of the Independent Trustees by their independent legal counsel. The Trustees reviewed a written response prepared by each Designated Sub-Adviser to a similar request for information submitted to the Designated Sub-Adviser by the Investment Adviser. During the course of their deliberations, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions with their independent legal counsel, without representatives of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates present.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Management Agreement

As part of their review, the Trustees considered the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser. In this regard, the Trustees considered both the investment advisory services and non-advisory services that are provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted the transition in the leadership and changes in personnel of various of the Investment Adviser’s portfolio management teams that had occurred in recent periods, and the ongoing recruitment efforts aimed at bringing high quality investment talent to the Investment Adviser. They also noted the Investment Adviser’s commitment to maintaining high quality systems and expending substantial resources to respond to ongoing changes to the market, regulatory and control environment in which the Fund and its service providers operate, including developments associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical events, and economic sanctions, as well as the efforts of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to combat cyber security risks. The Trustees also considered information regarding the Investment Adviser’s and the Fund’s various sub-advisers’ business continuity planning and remote operations capabilities. The Trustees concluded that the Investment Adviser continued to commit substantial financial and operational resources to the Fund and expressed confidence that the Investment Adviser would continue to do so in the future. The Trustees also recognized that the Investment Adviser had made significant commitments to address regulatory compliance requirements applicable to the Fund and

                55

GOLDMAN SACHS MULTI-MANAGER ALTERNATIVES FUND

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the Sub-Adviser oversight process that the Investment Adviser had employed, which included areas such as investment analytics, risk management and compliance.

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Fund. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of the Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2021, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser as of March 31, 2022. The information on the Fund’s investment performance prepared by the Outside Data Provider was provided for the one-, three-, and five-year periods. The Trustees also reviewed the Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Fund over time, and reviewed the investment performance of the Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions. The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s representations that the Fund had significant differences from its Outside Data Provider peer group and benchmark index that caused them to be imperfect bases for comparison. The Trustees also compared the investment performance of the Fund to the performance of comparable unregistered funds for which the Investment Adviser also serves as investment adviser. They considered that the unregistered funds provide an imperfect performance comparison because they are not subject to the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and the Sub-Advisers’ portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Fund’s risk profile, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

The Trustees noted that the Fund’s Institutional Shares had placed in the top half of the Fund’s performance peer group for the one-, three-, and five-year periods and had outperformed the Fund’s U.S. Treasury-based benchmark index for the one-year period ended December 31, 2021.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

The Trustees considered the contractual terms of the Management Agreement, the fee rates payable by the Fund thereunder, and the net amount retained by the Investment Adviser after payment of sub-advisory fees. In this regard, the Trustees considered information on the services rendered by the Investment Adviser to the Fund, which included both advisory and administrative services that were directed to the needs and operations of the Fund as a registered mutual fund.

In particular, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider regarding the expense rankings of the Fund, as well as additional information provided by the Investment Adviser throughout the year. The analyses provided a comparison of the Fund’s management fee and breakpoints to those of a relevant peer group and category universe; an expense analysis which compared the Fund’s overall net and gross expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and data comparing the Fund’s net expenses to the peer and category medians. The analyses also compared the Fund’s other expenses and fee waivers/reimbursements to those of the peer group and category medians. The Trustees also considered comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to collective investment vehicles having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Fund. They also noted that, in some cases, these collective investment vehicles have a compensation structure that includes performance fees and also pay additional asset-based fees and performance fees to the managers of underlying hedge funds. The Trustees considered that services provided to the Fund differed in various significant respects from the services provided to these collective investment vehicles, which generally operated under less stringent regulatory and financial reporting requirements, required fewer services from the Investment Adviser to a smaller number of client contact points, and were less time-sensitive. The Trustees concluded that the comparisons provided by the Outside Data Provider and the Investment Adviser were useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees and total expenses paid by the Fund.

In addition, the Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to implement fee waivers and expense limitations. The Trustees noted that the Investment Adviser had agreed to waive a portion of its management fee in an amount equal to the aggregate management fees paid to the Investment Adviser as the investment adviser to the Fund’s wholly-owned subsidiaries. In addition, the Trustees noted that shareholders are able to redeem their shares at any time if shareholders believe that the Fund fees and expenses are too high or if they are dissatisfied with the performance of the Fund.

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed the Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for the Fund was provided for 2021 and 2020, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund. The Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement for the Fund at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of the Fund:

Average Daily Net Assets	Management Fee Annual Rate
First $2 billion	1.90%
Next $3 billion	1.80
Next $3 billion	1.71
Over $8 billion	1.68

The Trustees noted that the breakpoints were designed to share potential economies of scale, if any, with the Fund and its shareholders as assets under management reach those asset levels. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Fund; the Fund’s recent purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and the profits realized by them (if any); information comparing the fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer group; and the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to waive a portion of its management fee and to limit certain expenses of the Fund that exceed a specified level, as well as Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC’s (“Goldman Sachs”) undertaking to waive a portion of the transfer agency fees paid by the Fund’s Class A, Class C, Investor and Class R Shares. The Trustees also considered the relationship between the advisory and sub-advisory fee rate schedules. Upon reviewing these matters at the Annual Meetings, the Trustees concluded that the fee breakpoints represented a means of assuring that benefits of scalability, if any, would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund, as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs; (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities transactions (in its capacity as clearing broker) and futures transactions on behalf of the Fund; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Fund on behalf of its other clients; (d) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (e) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with the Fund’s custodian on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Fund; (f) the investment of cash and cash collateral in money market funds managed by the Investment Adviser that will result in increased assets under management for those money market funds; (g) the Investment Adviser’s ability to aggregate client assets, including those of the Fund, to reach breakpoints that result in an overall reduction of sub-advisory fees owed by the Investment Adviser; and (h) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Fund’s third-party service providers (including the Sub-Advisers) may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Fund and Its Shareholders

The Trustees also noted that the Fund receives certain other potential benefits as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser, including: (a) enhanced servicing from vendors due to the volume of business generated by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates; (b) the advantages received from the Investment Adviser’s knowledge and experience gained from managing other accounts and products; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to hire and retain qualified personnel to provide services to the Fund because of the reputation of the Goldman Sachs organization; (d) the Fund’s access, through the Investment Adviser, to certain firm-wide resources (e.g., proprietary risk management systems and databases), subject to certain restrictions; and (e) the Fund’s access to certain affiliated distribution channels.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by the Fund were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to the Fund until September 30, 2023.

Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements and Performance

In evaluating the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees relied upon materials furnished and presentations made by the Investment Adviser and the Designated Sub-Advisers. In evaluating the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by each Designated Sub-Adviser, the Trustees considered information on the services provided to the Fund by each Designated Sub-Adviser, including information about each Designated Sub-Adviser’s (a) personnel and compensation structure; (b) track record in managing the Fund and, if applicable, other funds and/or accounts with investment strategies similar to those employed on behalf of the Fund; (c) policies and procedures in place to address potential conflicts of interest; and (d) compliance program and code of ethics. In this regard, they also considered assessments provided by the Investment Adviser of each Designated Sub-Adviser, the Designated Sub-Adviser’s investment strategies and personnel, and its compliance program. The Trustees also considered information regarding each Designated Sub-Adviser’s business continuity planning and remote operations capabilities. The Trustees also reviewed the operations and investment performance of each Designated Sub-Adviser’s respective sleeve of the Fund since its inception, including a comparison of each Designated Sub-Adviser to relevant benchmark indices based on various metrics, including realized beta, excess return, alpha, and volatility.

Costs of Services Provided

The Trustees reviewed the terms of each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement, including the schedule of fees payable to the Designated Sub-Advisers. They considered any breakpoints in the sub-advisory fee rate payable under each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees noted that the compensation paid to each Designated Sub-Adviser is paid by the Investment Adviser, not by the Fund, and that the retention of the Designated Sub-Advisers does not directly increase the fees incurred by the Fund for advisory services. They considered the Investment Adviser’s belief that the relationship between the management fees paid by the Fund and the sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser is appropriate given the level of services the Investment Adviser provides to the Fund and significant differences in cost drivers and risks associated with the respective services offered by the Investment Adviser and each Designated Sub-Adviser. They also considered the management fee waivers and expense limitations that substantially reduce the fees retained by the Investment Adviser. The Trustees reviewed the blended average of all sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser with respect to the Fund in light of the overall management fee paid by the Fund.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees gave weight to various factors, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser to each Designated Sub-Adviser were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement should be approved and continued until September 30, 2023.

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Alternatives Fund (the “Fund”) is an investment portfolio of Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Fund at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. The Fund employs a “manager of managers” structure, whereby Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) is responsible for selecting sub-advisers (subject to Board approval), allocating the assets of the Fund among them, and overseeing their day-to-day management of Fund assets.

Upon the recommendation of the Investment Adviser, at a meeting held on June 9-10, 2022, the Trustees, including those Trustees who are not “interested persons” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Trustees”), approved a sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between the Investment Adviser and Trium Capital LLP (the “Sub-Adviser”) on behalf of the Fund. In connection with their evaluation of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations prepared by the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser on the topics covered, and were advised by their independent legal counsel. In addition, the Trustees received information prepared by the Sub-Adviser in a written response to a formal request from the Investment Adviser.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services to be Provided Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement

In evaluating the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees relied on the information provided by the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. In evaluating the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by the Sub-Adviser, the Trustees considered information about the Sub-Adviser’s (a) personnel and compensation structure; (b) track record in managing other funds and accounts with investment strategies similar to those to be employed on behalf of the Fund; (c) policies and procedures in place to address potential conflicts of interest; and (d) compliance program and code of ethics. In this regard, they considered assessments provided by the Investment Adviser of the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser’s investment strategies and personnel, and its compliance program. They noted that, because the Sub-Adviser had not previously provided services to the Fund, there was no performance information to evaluate with respect to the Fund.

Costs of Services to be Provided

The Trustees reviewed the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement and the proposed fee schedule. They noted that the compensation to be paid to the Sub-Adviser would be paid by the Investment Adviser, not by the Fund. They also noted that the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement were the result of arms’ length negotiations between the Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser. The Trustees reviewed the anticipated blended average of all sub-advisory fees to be paid by the Investment Adviser with respect to the Fund and how it would change upon hiring the Sub-Adviser. The Trustees considered this information in light of the overall management fee expected to be retained by the Investment Adviser.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to various factors, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the sub-advisory fees to be paid by the Investment Adviser to the Sub-Adviser were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that the Sub-Advisory Agreement, and the terms thereof, should be approved for a period of two years from its effective date.

In this regard, they considered assessments provided by the Investment Adviser of the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser’s investment strategies and personnel, and its compliance program. The Trustees considered that the Sub-Adviser currently manages a sleeve of another series of the Trust using a different strategy. They noted that, because the Sub-Adviser had not previously provided services to the Fund, there was no performance information to evaluate with respect to the Fund.

The Trustees reviewed the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreement and the proposed fee schedule, which includes breakpoints.

MARKET REVIEW

Goldman Sachs Strategic Multi-Asset Class Funds

Market Review

The capital markets broadly declined during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”), as persistent inflation, supply-chain shortages, recession fears and tightening central bank monetary policy created a challenging backdrop for investors.

Global equity markets started the Reporting Period strongly, with the MSCI All Country World Index (“MSCI ACWI IMI”) Investable Market Index rising 1.2% in November and December 2021 overall to post a double-digit gain for the 2021 calendar year. For the remainder of the Reporting Period, however, global equity markets were volatile and broadly negative on the back of elevated inflation, rising interest rates and global supply-chain disruptions. In response to stubbornly high inflation, major central banks around the world picked up the pace of interest rate hikes, including the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”), which raised the targeted federal funds rate to a range between 3.00% and 3.25% by the end of October 2022, its highest level since 2008. Uncertainty about whether central banks could successfully combat inflation and avoid an economic recession kept equity valuations depressed. Geopolitical tensions further dampened market sentiment, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 pushed up energy prices and as ongoing COVID-19-related lockdowns in China continued to disrupt global supply chains. For the Reporting Period overall, the MSCI ACWI Investable Market Index, representing global equities, returned -19.96%, with growth stocks broadly underperforming value stocks. From a sector perspective, the higher interest rate environment and macroeconomic uncertainty contributed to a sell-off in long-duration growth stocks within the information technology and consumer discretionary sectors. (Long-duration stocks are those that tend to deliver a higher proportion of their cash flows in the distant future. Duration is a measure of sensitivity to changes in interest rates.) Energy was the best performing sector in the MSCI ACWI Investable Market Index during the Reporting Period, benefiting from rising commodity prices. From a regional standpoint, North American stocks performed better than European, Australian and Asian stocks, but each global region recorded negative absolute returns overall. Emerging markets equities were particularly challenged during the Reporting Period, mainly by the uncertain geopolitical environment and the sharp decline in China’s stock market. The MSCI China All Shares Index returned -42.58% during the Reporting Period overall, as economic growth concerns fueled by the Chinese government’s “zero-COVID” policies and its continuing regulatory crackdown weighed on investor sentiment. Instability and geopolitical concerns within Eastern Europe were also a drag on the performance of emerging markets equities, especially in Hungary and Poland, with a number of index providers, including MSCI Inc., excluding Russian securities from their indices in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Credit markets broadly fell during the Reporting Period, as interest rates rose and credit spreads widened. (Credit spreads are yield differentials between corporate bonds and U.S. Treasury securities of comparable maturity.) Other headwinds included the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, elevated inflation, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, supply-chain disruptions and changing central bank monetary policies. Bank loans held up better than most other fixed income sectors during the Reporting Period, benefiting from their floating rate nature and strong investor demand. On the other hand, investment grade corporate bonds, which tend to be of longer duration, were hurt by higher interest rates and lagged most other segments of the fixed income market. High yield corporate bonds also weakened during the Reporting Period. Within the emerging markets, U.S. dollar-denominated bonds trailed local currency-denominated bonds due to rising U.S. interest rates and widening credit spreads. Additionally, the exclusion of Russian debt from a number of fixed income indices, along with the resulting fallout on other index constituents, broadly weighed on emerging markets debt. Commodity-rich regions, such as the Middle East and Latin America, generally outperformed Asia and Europe as commodity prices increased during the Reporting Period.

Global real estate securities dropped during the Reporting Period and underperformed the broader global equity markets. Rising interest rates, driven by the Fed’s accelerated, aggressive monetary policy tightening, and energy supply constraints driven by the Russia/Ukraine war fueled the decline. Historically, global real estate securities are hurt more than global equities as a whole by higher interest rates. Geography was the most critical determinant of performance during the Reporting Period. Continental Europe and U.K. real estate securities were sharply lower compared to global real estate securities broadly, while Asia-Pacific real estate securities generally performed in line with global real estate securities and North American real estate securities outperformed global real estate securities. Investor sentiment in Europe was notably impacted by the Russia/Ukraine war, concerns about energy scarcity and fears about a recession in the region. Regarding property types, those with more favorable secular growth characteristics, such as industrial and residential real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), largely generated weaker results than property types with more “value-like” characteristics, such as retail REITs. Office REITs experienced substantial declines during

MARKET REVIEW

the Reporting Period, as a drop in post-COVID-19 occupancy levels dampened investor sentiment. Lease duration was also top of mind for investors. For example, short-duration leased property types, such as self-storage facilities, held up relatively well compared to long-duration leased assets, such as cell towers.

Global infrastructure securities declined during the Reporting Period, but they significantly outperformed the broader global equity market. From a sector perspective, utilities held up well despite rising interest rates, as their business models generally have explicit, regulated cost pass-through mechanisms. Furthermore, utilities, particularly in North America, benefited from anticipation of higher renewables capital expenditure spending, which could translate directly into earnings growth for a sector not known historically for its earnings growth potential. Certain provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, signed into law during August, may also have contributed to the shift in investor perceptions. Elsewhere, midstream energy stocks performed strongly during the Reporting Period, primarily due to sharply higher global energy prices but also because of significant fundamental improvements, including better governance structures and a strong focus by management teams on free cash flow. (The midstream component of the energy industry is usually defined as those companies providing products or services that help link the supply side, i.e., energy producers, and the demand side, i.e., energy end-users, for any type of energy commodity. Such midstream businesses can include, but are not limited to, those that process, store, market and transport various energy commodities.) Meanwhile, cell towers, which are considered both infrastructure and real estate assets, were negatively impacted during the Reporting Period by higher interest rates and the strong performance of value-oriented equities. Transportation-related infrastructure securities were modestly weak amid investor concerns that a possible global recession could lead to cyclical pressures, especially in Europe.

Looking Ahead

At the end of the Reporting Period, we believed investors would continue to face headwinds from tightening monetary policy, as persistent inflation kept central banks on their interest rate hiking paths. While many observers anticipated some kind of economic slowdown, they continued to debate whether central bankers could engineer a “soft landing” or if a more protracted economic decline would be the likely outcome. (A soft landing, in economics, is a cyclical downturn that avoids recession. It typically describes attempts by central banks to raise interest rates just enough to stop an economy from overheating and experiencing high inflation, without causing a significant increase in unemployment, or a hard landing.) In our view, the war in Ukraine and its broader geopolitical risks were likely to remain threats to the global capital markets in the near term and could also push energy and food prices higher. Although supply-chain issues appeared to be moderating at the end of the Reporting Period, we expect them to remain obstacles in the fight against inflation.

FUND RESULTS

  Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Multi-Asset Solutions (“MAS”) Group and the Goldman Sachs Alternative Investments & Manager Selection (“AIMS”) Group discuss the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class R6 Shares generated an average annual total return of -19.61%. This return compares to the -18.04% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI All Country World Index Investable Market Index (“MSCI ACWI IMI”) (Net, USD, 50% Non-U.S. Developed Hedged to USD) (the “Index”), during the same time period.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund uses a multi-manager approach and generally seeks to achieve its investment objective by dynamically allocating its assets among unaffiliated investment managers (“Underlying Managers”) that employ a mix of international, emerging markets and U.S.-focused equity investment strategies. The MAS Group is responsible for the Fund’s asset allocation, wherein it applies a risk-based approach that draws from both fundamental and quantitative disciplines with the intention of dynamically accessing a diversified set of risks and returns in a market cycle aware manner. The AIMS Group is responsible for making recommendations with respect to hiring, terminating or replacing the Fund’s Underlying Managers and applying a multifaceted process for manager due diligence, portfolio construction and risk management. The MAS Group also provides certain risk management services to the Fund.

During the Reporting Period, the Fund generated a negative absolute return and underperformed the Index. The Fund’s relative results can be attributed to the performance of the Fund’s Underlying Managers overall. Strategic asset allocation outperformed the Index during the Reporting Period.

At various points during the Reporting Period, the Fund had capital allocated to the following Underlying Managers—Axiom International Investors LLC (“Axiom”); Boston Partners Global Investors, Inc. (“Boston Partners”), Causeway Capital Management LLC (“Causeway”), Diamond Hill Capital Management Inc. (“Diamond Hill”); DWS Investment Management Americas, Inc. (“DIMA”),

GW&K Investment Management, LLC (“GW&K”), Massachusetts Financial Services Company, doing business as MFS Investment Management, (“MFS”), Principal Global Investors, LLC (“Principal”), T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (“T. Rowe Price”), Vaughan Nelson Investment Management, L.P. (“Vaughan Nelson”), Vulcan Value Partners, LLC (“Vulcan”), WCM Investment Management, LLC (“WCM”) and Wellington Management Company LLP (“Wellington”).

These Underlying Managers represented five market segments across global equity as part of the Fund’s top-level strategy allocation—U.S. large cap (Diamond Hill, T. Rowe Price, Vaughan Nelson and Vulcan); Europe, Australasia and Far East (“EAFE”) large cap (Causeway, MFS and WCM); U.S. small cap (Boston Partners and GW&K); EAFE small cap (Principal); and emerging markets (Axiom and Wellington). DIMA managed a diversified beta strategy for the Fund from the beginning of the Reporting Period through February 8, 2022, when its assets were redeemed.

Nine of these Underlying Managers had allocated capital for the entire Reporting Period, with all nine generating negative absolute returns. Diamond Hill and T. Rowe Price each generated a negative absolute return between December 7, 2021, when they were both allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. Vulcan generated a negative absolute return between the beginning of the Reporting Period and June 23, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. DIMA generated a negative absolute return from the start of the Reporting Period until February 8, 2022, when its assets were redeemed.

On a relative basis, five Underlying Managers outperformed their respective benchmark indices and four underperformed their respective benchmark indices during the Reporting Period. Diamond Hill and T. Rowe Price underperformed their respective benchmark indices between December 7, 2021, when they were each allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. Vulcan underperformed its benchmark index from the beginning of the Reporting Period through June 23, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. DIMA underperformed its benchmark index between the beginning of the Reporting Period and February 8, 2022, when its assets were redeemed.

FUND RESULTS

During the Reporting Period, the MAS Group managed a passive currency overlay, which is designed to hedge exposure to non-U.S. currencies by selling the currencies in which the Fund’s equity securities are traded and investing in the U.S. dollar. The currency overlay seeks to minimize unintended currency exposures for the Fund. Also, in connection with the risk management services it provides, the MAS Group maintained passive equity exposure to the Fund in order to keep the Fund’s beta closer to that of the Index. (Beta refers to the component of the returns that is attributable market risk exposure, rather than manager skill.)

Strategic asset allocation, which reflects a longer-term perspective to diversify and invest across global equity markets, outperformed the Index during the Reporting Period. The outperformance was driven largely by the Fund’s overweight relative to the Index in U.S. large-cap equities and its underweights in global small-cap equities and EAFE equities, as non-U.S. developed markets equities were hurt by geopolitical tensions in Eastern Europe and China’s continued “zero-Covid” policies.

Q Which global equity asset classes most significantly affected Fund performance?

A In U.S. large cap, Underlying Manager Vaughan Nelson outperformed the S&P 500^® Index due to strong stock selection within information technology, as well as to a relative underweight to and effective stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector. Underlying Manager Vulcan underperformed the S&P 500^® Index between the start of the Reporting Period and June 23, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. Weak stock selection and an overweight position in information technology, as well as ineffective stock selection within financials drove the negative results. Underlying Manager Diamond Hill underperformed the Russell 1000^® Value Index between December 7, 2021, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. A relative overweight to and weak stock selection in consumer discretionary, along with an underweight to the energy sector, were the largest detractors from relative returns. Conversely, effective stock selection within industrials added to performance. Underlying Manager T. Rowe Price underperformed the Russell 1000^® Growth Index between December 7, 2021, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. Its largest detractor was a relative overweight to communication services, the weakest-performing sector in the Russell 1000^® Growth Index for that time period. An underweight to consumer staples also hurt results. On the positive side, stock selection within the health care sector added to relative returns during the Reporting Period.

In U.S. small cap, Boston Partners, the value-oriented Underlying Manager, outperformed the Russell 2000^® Value Index primarily because of strong stock selection in and a relative underweight to the health care sector. Effective stock selection in the communication services sector also boosted

Boston Partners’ results. Underlying Manager GW&K outperformed the Russell 2000^® Index due largely to strong stock selection in the health care and consumer discretionary sectors.

In EAFE large cap, Underlying Manager WCM underperformed its benchmark index, the MSCI ACWI ex USA Index, because of weak stock selection in and a relative overweight to information technology, as well as a lack of exposure to energy. These losses were partially offset by a lack of exposure to the communication services and real estate sectors, which added value. Underlying Manager MFS outperformed its benchmark index, the MSCI EAFE Index, as a result of broad-based positive stock selection across the consumer discretionary, information technology, financials and industrials sectors. A lack of exposure to the real estate sector was also advantageous. These positive results were offset somewhat by a relative underweight to the energy sector and weak stock selection in communication services, which detracted. Regionally, stock selection was strong in continental Europe, while modest out-of-benchmark exposure to North America—specifically, Canada—added further to relative performance. Conversely, stock selection in the emerging markets—namely, modest out-of-benchmark exposure to China and Taiwan—partially detracted from returns. Underlying Manager Causeway outperformed the MSCI EAFE Index, its benchmark index, due primarily to strong stock selection within the consumer discretionary and financials sectors. These gains were slightly offset by weak stock selection in the materials and industrials sectors, which detracted from relative performance.

In EAFE small cap, Underlying Manager Principal underperformed its benchmark index, the MSCI World ex USA Small Cap Index, largely because of weak stock selection in the consumer staples, consumer discretionary and financials sectors. On a regional basis, stock selection in the U.K. and Japan also detracted from its relative returns.

In emerging markets, which we measure relative to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, Underlying Manager Axiom underperformed the benchmark index due primarily to underweight positions and weak stock selection in the financials and materials sectors. These negative results were partially offset by a relative overweight position and solid stock selection in the information technology sector, as well as effective stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector, all of which added to performance. From a regional perspective, stock selection within Latin America detracted most from relative returns, while effective stock selection within emerging Asia added most. Underlying Manager Wellington also underperformed the benchmark index, largely because of stock-specific effects (i.e., stock returns that are not explainable by Wellington’s models and their factors). Although Wellington’s quantitative equity model’s factors and region-based factors added to performance during the Reporting Period, these positive results were partly offset by weakness in country-based and style-based factors. Within Wellington’s quantitative equity model, the

FUND RESULTS

momentum factor, driven by the strong results of its long-term signals, bolstered relative returns. The value factor, including both the pure value and fair value signals, also added to performance. In addition, the quality factor contributed positively, mainly because of earnings quality signals.

Diversified beta manager DIMA underperformed its benchmark index, the MSCI World Index, between the beginning of the Reporting Period and February 8, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. This performance was largely the result of exposure to the value and low volatility factors, offset by exposure to the momentum and quality factors, as value-oriented equities broadly outpaced growth-oriented equities during this time period.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the MAS Group managed a passive currency overlay that sought to minimize unintended currency exposures for the Fund. As part of this currency overlay, the MAS Group used forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which had a positive impact on performance. The MAS Group also used equity futures within the Fund’s U.S. large-cap equity allocation in an effort to maintain target exposure relative to the Index and to facilitate the capital required for the currency overlay. This had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. In addition, during the Reporting Period, the Fund employed equity futures to equitize its cash holdings and manage investment inflows, which had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s Underlying Managers employed rights and warrants to implement their strategies. The use of rights and warrants did not have a material impact on the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period overall.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period?

A We made a number of changes in the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period. In the second quarter of 2022, we eliminated the Fund’s diversified beta allocation and reallocated the assets to U.S. large-cap equities. In the third calendar quarter, we reduced the Fund’s allocations to international small-cap and large-cap equities and increased its allocations to U.S. and Canadian large-cap equities.

During November 2021, Diamond Hill and T. Rowe Price were added as Underlying Managers for the Fund and both were allocated capital in December. Diamond Hill manages a large-cap value strategy that seeks to invest in companies selling at a discount to its team’s estimation of intrinsic value, with sustainable competitive advantages, conservative balance sheets and a management team with an ownership mentality. T. Rowe Price manages a large-cap growth strategy that invests in emerging and leading growth companies with high-quality earnings, strong free cash flow growth and shareholder-oriented management teams. The

AIMS Group believes the addition of these Underlying Managers should provide greater flexibility in managing the Fund’s factor exposures through market cycles.

On March 21, 2022, related to the elimination of the Fund’s diversified beta allocation, DIMA was removed as an Underlying Manager of the Fund. For the same reason, we removed the Fund’s positions in the iShares^® Edge MSCI Multifactor USA ETF and the iShares^® Edge MSCI Multifactor International ETF during March.

In April 2022, we sold the Fund’s position in the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF, which seeks to track the investment results of the S&P 500^® Index, a measure of the performance of U.S. large-cap stocks. We reallocated the assets to Diamond Hill and T. Rowe Price.

In June 2022, Vulcan was redeemed and the proceeds were reallocated to T. Rowe Price. At the end of the Reporting Period, Vulcan remained an Underlying Manager of the Fund but did not have allocated capital.

Regarding the Fund’s strategic asset allocation, the Fund’s assets were allocated at the beginning of the Reporting Period 50.7% to U.S. large cap, 28.1% to non-U.S. developed large cap, 7.5% to U.S. small cap, 5.1% to non-U.S. developed small cap, 11.9% to emerging markets and 0.4% to cash and cash equivalents. At the end of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated 53.2% to U.S. large cap, 26.3% to non-U.S. developed large cap, 6.5% to U.S. small cap, 4.1% to non-U.S. developed small cap, 11.1% to emerging markets and 0.4% to cash and cash equivalents. This sector breakout is inclusive of derivative exposure across all asset classes.

Q What is the Fund’s tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A Overall, we intend to continue to position the Fund in alignment with our longer-term strategic views within the equity complex as a complement to additional strategic market exposures. We further intend to continue to monitor allocations and Underlying Manager performance as we seek to generate long-term capital growth.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Multi-Asset Solutions (“MAS”) Group and the Goldman Sachs Alternative Investments & Manager Selection (“AIMS”) Group discuss the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class R6 Shares generated an average annual total return of -15.42%. This return compares to the -15.19% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Composite Dynamic Index (the “Index”), during the same time period.

The Index is comprised of the Bloomberg Global High Yield Corporate Index (Gross, USD, Unhedged) (the “Bloomberg Index”), the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index (Gross, USD, Unhedged) (the “Credit Suisse Index”), the J.P. Morgan Emerging Market Bond Index (“EMBI^SM”) Global Diversified Index (Gross, USD, Unhedged) (the “J.P. Morgan EMBI^SM Index”) and the J.P. Morgan Government Bond Index—Emerging Markets (“GBI-EM^SM”) Global Diversified Index (Gross, USD, Unhedged) (the “J.P. Morgan GBI-EM^SM Index”), which are weighted in accordance with the relative market capitalizations of each constituent index (as determined by the constituent index providers) as of the last business day of the previous calendar year. During the Reporting Period, the Bloomberg Index, the Credit Suisse Index, the J.P. Morgan EMBI^SM Index and the J.P. Morgan GBI-EM^SM Index returned -16.31%, -2.03%, -24.19% and -20.27%, respectively.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund uses a multi-manager approach and generally seeks to achieve its investment objective by dynamically allocating its assets among unaffiliated investment managers (“Underlying Managers”) that employ a non-core fixed income investment strategy. (Non-core fixed income includes non-investment grade securities, bank loans and emerging markets debt). The MAS Group is responsible for the Fund’s asset allocation, wherein it applies a risk-based approach that draws from both fundamental and quantitative disciplines with the intention of dynamically accessing a diversified set of risks and returns in a market cycle aware manner. The AIMS Group is responsible for making recommendations

with respect to hiring, terminating or replacing the Fund’s Underlying Managers and applying a multifaceted process for manager due diligence, portfolio construction and risk management.

During the Reporting Period, the Fund recorded a negative absolute return and modestly underperformed the Index. The Fund’s relative results can be attributed to the performance of the Underlying Managers overall. Strategic asset allocation underperformed the Index during the Reporting Period.

At various points during the Reporting Period, the Fund had the following Underlying Managers, though not all were allocated capital—Ares Capital Management II LLC (“Ares”), BlueBay Asset Management LLP (“BlueBay”), Brigade Capital Management, LP (“Brigade”), Marathon Asset Management, L.P. (“Marathon”), Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (“Nuveen”), Pacific Asset Management LLC (“Pacific”), RBC Global Asset Management (U.S.) Inc. (“RBC GAM-US”) (formerly, Blue Bay Asset Management USA LLC), River Canyon Fund Management LLC (“River Canyon”), and TCW Investment Management Company LLC (“TCW”). As a reminder, in August 2021, RBC GAM-US had been added as an Underlying Manager for the Fund to allow us to enhance BlueBay’s ability to coordinate its management services to the Fund, and thus for these reporting purposes are being discussed as one Underlying Manager.

These Underlying Managers represented five sectors across non-core fixed income as part of the Fund’s top-level strategy allocation—high yield (Ares, BlueBay/RBC GAM-US and Brigade), bank loans (Nuveen and Pacific), external emerging markets debt (Marathon), local emerging markets debt (TCW) and structured credit (River Canyon).

Of the Underlying Managers with allocated capital for the entire Reporting Period, all generated negative absolute returns. River Canyon generated negative absolute returns from the beginning of the Reporting Period through March 31, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. Ares produced negative absolute returns between December 16, 2021, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the

FUND RESULTS

Reporting Period. Pacific generated negative absolute returns between January 18, 2022, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period.

On a relative basis, three Underlying Managers underperformed their respective benchmark indices and two outperformed their respective benchmark indices during the Reporting Period. Ares outperformed its benchmark index between December 16, 2021, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. Pacific underperformed its benchmark index between January 18, 2022, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. We do not measure River Canyon against a benchmark index.

Strategic asset allocation, which reflects a longer-term perspective to diversify and invest in non-core fixed income sectors, underperformed the Index during the Reporting Period. The underperformance was due in part to an overweight versus the Index to high yield corporate bonds versus bank loans broadly. During the Reporting Period, high yield corporate bonds underperformed bank loans. In addition, the Fund was hurt by its overweight positions in external emerging markets debt and local emerging markets debt, which were adversely affected during the Reporting Period by the rising interest rate environment.

Q Which non-core fixed income Underlying Managers most significantly affected Fund performance?

A BlueBay/RBC GAM-US, a high yield Underlying Manager, outperformed the ICE BofA Global High Yield Investment Grade Country Constrained Index during the Reporting Period. The outperformance was driven primarily by security selection. Overall, the strategy benefited from its underweight positions versus the benchmark index in cyclical market segments, such as real estate, leisure, automotive and transportation, which were hurt more than most other market segments during the Reporting Period by supply-chain issues and rising inflation. In addition, underweight positions within defensive market segments, including telecommunications, health care and consumer goods, bolstered relative performance. An underweight to emerging markets corporate bonds was also positive for performance. Conversely, overweight positions in banking and financial services detracted from returns, driven primarily by positioning in European banks. From a ratings perspective, a preference for lower-rated credits and selection amongst credits rated B and rated CCC and below added to results, as rising government bond yields led to the underperformance of higher-rated credits. The strategy was further aided by term structure effects, wherein it benefited from its short duration position relative to its benchmark index. (Term structure, most often depicted as a yield curve, refers to the term structure of interest rates, which is the relationship between the yield to maturity and the time to maturity for pure discount bonds. Duration is a measure of sensitivity to changes in interest rates.)

Brigade, another high yield Underlying Manager, outperformed the ICE BofA Global High Yield Investment Grade Country Constrained Index during the Reporting Period. Security selection was the primary driver of outperformance. Credit selection within the energy and basic industry market segments added most to relative performance, as commodity prices rose. An out-of-benchmark allocation to bank loans added further to relative returns. From a ratings perspective, credit selection across rating tiers was advantageous, driven by selection among BB-rated and B-rated credits. Conversely, an overweight versus the benchmark index in CCC-rated credits weighed on performance during the Reporting Period. Regarding sector allocations, an underweight position in real estate, most notably the strategy’s avoidance of Chinese real estate debt, contributed positively.

Ares, another high yield Underlying Manager, outperformed the ICE BofA Global High Yield Investment Grade Country Constrained Index from December 16, 2021 through the end of the Reporting Period. Much of its outperformance was driven by credit selection within the energy market segment, as commodity prices increased significantly. Strong credit selection in the real estate market segment also added to relative returns. Specifically, the strategy avoided Chinese real estate debt, which faced significant pressure during the Reporting Period. Conversely, credit selection within the basic industry, financial services, and services market segments weighed on relative performance. From a ratings perspective, selection among BB-rated and B-rated credits added to returns, while selection of CCC-rated credits detracted from returns. An out-of-benchmark allocation to bank loans further bolstered relative performance.

Nuveen, a bank loans Underlying Manager, underperformed the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index during the Reporting Period. Credit selection in consumer staples, technology and communication services detracted most from relative performance. These negative results were offset somewhat by credit selection in health care and real estate, which contributed positively. Regarding allocations, the strategy’s overweight positions relative to the benchmark index in the communication services and technology market segments weighed on returns. However, an underweight in consumer staples was beneficial. From a credit ratings perspective, selection of CCC-rated credits was a drag on relative performance, though this was partially offset by an underweight allocation to these credits. Additionally, overweight positions in defaulted issuers hurt results, as did credit selection among non-rated issuers.

Pacific, the other bank loans Underlying Manager, underperformed the Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index between January 18, 2022, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period. From an asset allocation perspective, the strategy’s focus on larger and liquid issuers weighed on its relative performance, as smaller issuers outperformed. Exposure to high yield corporate bonds also hurt results, as high yield corporate bonds underperformed

        9

FUND RESULTS

bank loans. However, limited exposure to distressed issuers contributed positively. Additionally, the strategy’s lack of exposure to the metals/minerals and consumer durables market segments added to relative performance. Conversely, an underweight compared to the benchmark index in utilities, as well as an overweight in health care, detracted from results. From a credit ratings perspective, an overweight to B-rated loans and an underweight to BB-rated loans hurt performance. On the other hand, despite an overweight to CCC-rated loans, which lagged BB-rated and B-rated loans, the strategy was concentrated in positively performing second-lien loans, which added to returns overall.

Marathon, the external emerging markets debt Underlying Manager, slightly underperformed the J.P. Morgan EMBI^SM Global Diversified Index during the Reporting Period. Overweight positions versus the benchmark index in Ukraine and Israel detracted from returns. Selection in Egypt, Hungary and Colombia also weighed on relative performance. On the positive side, the strategy benefited from its legacy holdings in Russia, as J.P. Morgan excluded Russian securities from its indices in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and these issues rose in value amidst opportunistic buying. In addition, selection in China, the United Arab Emirates and Chile contributed positively to relative returns.

TCW, the local emerging markets debt Underlying Manager, underperformed the J.P. Morgan GBI-EM^SM Global Diversified Index during the Reporting Period. An underweight versus the benchmark index in Turkey, where local bonds rallied due largely to supply and demand factors, detracted from relative returns. The strategy remains underweight Turkey’s local bonds in light of the country’s unorthodox monetary policy, high inflation and significantly negative real rates. In addition, the timing of certain trades in South Africa and out-of-index exposure to Ukraine in early 2022 hurt relative performance. The Ukraine position was sold in early February as the potential for a Russia/Ukraine conflict grew. Conversely, the strategy benefited from its underweight positioning in Egypt, which reflected TCW’s expectations of weaker fundamentals on the back of food and energy shocks and a potential currency devaluation. A position in Russia’s local bonds added further to returns. Additionally, after J.P. Morgan excluded Russian securities from its indices in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, TCW was able to exit this position in an illiquid market at attractive valuations. Finally, overweight positions in Brazil and Mexico, which were based on positive views about the attractive risk-adjusted carry and supportive commodity environment, were also beneficial to relative performance.

River Canyon, the structured credit Underlying Manager, which we do not measure against a benchmark index, produced negative absolute returns from the beginning of the Reporting Period through March 31, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. (Structured credit refers to instruments that pool debt obligations and sell the resulting cash flows, such as collateralized mortgage obligations or collateralized loan

obligations (“CLOs”).) The negative performance was driven by allocations to CLOs, non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities and agency inverse interest only securities. Overall, the strategy was negatively impacted by the rise in interest rates.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, a specialized index of credit default swaps (“CDX”) was used as a cost-efficient instrument to help manage the Fund’s cash position. The use of CDX had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s Underlying Managers employed credit default swaps, warrants, U.S. Treasury futures, interest-only securities, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and structured securities to implement their strategies. The use of credit default swaps and U.S. Treasury futures by Underlying Managers each had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance. The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, warrants, interest-only securities and structured securities by Underlying Managers each had a neutral impact on the Fund’s results during the Reporting Period.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period?

A We made a number of changes in the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period. In the first quarter of 2022, we eliminated the Fund’s allocation to structured credit and reallocated the assets to high yield corporate bonds and bank loans. During the third calendar quarter, we decreased the Fund’s allocations to external and local emerging markets debt in favor of greater allocations to high yield corporate bonds and bank loans.

Pacific was added as an Underlying Manager of the Fund in November 2021 and allocated capital in January 2022. Pacific manages a bank loan strategy, with a focus on larger issue size loans, which seeks to avoid losses and aims to generate excess returns via relative value trading. The AIMS Group believed it was prudent to diversify the Fund’s bank loan manager exposure beyond existing Underlying Manager Nuveen, which employs an opportunistic approach that may at times invest in lower dollar-priced loans with an expected catalyst.

In December 2021, Ares was allocated capital in an effort to further diversify the Fund’s exposure to high yield corporate bonds and bank loans.

In March 2022, we redeemed River Canyon’s allocated capital due to the elimination of the Fund’s strategic allocation to structured credit. We reallocated the proceeds to the Fund’s high yield and bank loan Underlying Managers. At the end of the Reporting Period, River Canyon remained an Underlying Manager of the Fund but did not have allocated capital.

10    

FUND RESULTS

In terms of the Fund’s strategic allocation, at the start of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated 40.8% to high yield corporate bonds, 22.0% to local emerging markets debt, 18.2% to external emerging markets debt, 16.1% to bank loans, 5.0% to structured credit and 0.7% to cash and cash equivalents. At the end of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated 39.8% to high yield corporate bonds, 23.6% to bank loans, 22.5% to local emerging markets debt, 14.7% to external emerging markets debt and 2.2% to cash and cash equivalents. This sector breakout is inclusive of derivative exposure across all asset classes.

Q What is the Fund’s tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A Overall, we intend to continue to position the Fund in alignment with our longer-term strategic views on the non-core fixed income market as a complement to additional strategic market exposures. We further intend to continue to monitor allocations and Underlying Manager performance as we seek to generate total return consisting of income and capital appreciation.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks to provide long-term capital growth through investments related to real assets.

Portfolio Management Discussion and Analysis

Below, the Goldman Sachs Multi-Asset Solutions (“MAS”) Group and the Goldman Sachs Alternative Investments & Manager Selection (“AIMS”) Group discuss the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund’s (the “Fund”) performance and positioning for 12-month period ended October 31, 2022 (the “Reporting Period”).

Q How did the Fund perform during the Reporting Period?

A During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s Class R6 Shares generated an average annual total return of -19.78%. This return compares to the -18.66% average annual total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Composite Dynamic Index (the “Index”), during the same time period.

The Index is comprised of the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Index (Net, USD, Unhedged) (the “FTSE Index”) and the Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Index (Net, USD, Unhedged) (the “Dow Jones Brookfield Index”), which are weighted in accordance with the relative market capitalizations of each constituent index (as determined by the constituent index providers) as of the last business day of the previous calendar year. During the Reporting Period, the FTSE Index and the Dow Jones Brookfield Index returned -24.82% and -8.10%, respectively.

Q What key factors were responsible for the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period?

A The Fund uses a multi-manager approach and generally seeks to achieve its investment objective by dynamically allocating its assets among unaffiliated investment managers (“Underlying Managers”) that invest primarily in real assets. (Real assets are defined broadly by the Fund and include any assets that have physical properties or inflation sensitive characteristics, such as energy, real estate, infrastructure, commodities and inflation linked or floating rate fixed income securities. Inflation is a sustained increase in prices that erodes the purchasing power of money. Assets with inflation sensitive characteristics are assets that benefit from rising real cash flows in times of rising inflation.) The MAS Group is responsible for the Fund’s asset allocation, wherein it applies a risk-based approach that draws from both fundamental and quantitative disciplines with the intention of dynamically accessing a diversified set of risks and returns in a market cycle aware manner. The AIMS Group is responsible for making recommendations with respect to hiring, terminating or replacing the Fund’s Underlying Managers and applying a multifaceted process for manager due diligence, portfolio construction and risk management.

The Fund posted a negative absolute return during the Reporting Period and underperformed the Index. The Fund’s relative results can be attributed to the performance of the Underlying Managers overall. Strategic asset allocation outperformed the Index during the Reporting Period.

At various points during the Reporting Period, the Fund allocated capital to the following Underlying Managers—Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc. (“Cohen & Steers”), PGIM Real Estate, a business unit of PGIM, Inc. (“PRE”), Presima Inc. (“Presima”), Principal Real Estate Investors, LLC (“PrinREI”) and RREEF America L.L.C. (“RREEF”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of DWS Group GmbH & COVID-19. KgaA, an affiliate of Deutsche Bank AG.

These Underlying Managers represented two sectors of real assets as part of the Fund’s top-level strategy allocation—global real estate (PRE, Presima and PrinREI) and global infrastructure (Cohen & Steers and RREEF).

All three of the Underlying Managers with allocated capital for the entire Reporting Period generated negative absolute returns. Presima produced a negative absolute return from the beginning of the Reporting Period until February 24, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. PrinREI produced a negative absolute return from February 24, 2022, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period.

On a relative basis, three of the Underlying Managers underperformed their respective benchmark indices during the Reporting Period overall. Presima outperformed its benchmark index between the start of the Reporting Period and February 24, 2022, when its assets were redeemed. PrinREI underperformed its benchmark index between February 24, 2022, when it was allocated capital, and the end of the Reporting Period.

Strategic asset allocation, which reflects a longer-term perspective to diversify and invest across real assets, outperformed the Index. During the Reporting Period, the Fund’s strategic allocation to global infrastructure securities was larger than that of the Index, while its strategic allocation to global real estate securities was smaller. As a reminder, the Index has a comparatively larger weighting in global real estate securities than in global infrastructure securities.

                15

FUND RESULTS

During the Reporting Period, global infrastructure securities performed better than global real estate securities, as energy prices remained elevated and rising long-term interest rates hurt the valuations of global real estate securities.

Q Which real assets asset classes most significantly affected Fund performance?

A In global infrastructure, which we measure against the Dow Jones Brookfield Index, Underlying Manager RREEF modestly underperformed the benchmark index during the Reporting Period. A relative overweight to and challenged stock selection within the transportation infrastructure sector detracted from relative returns. In addition, an underweight to North American midstream¹ energy companies hurt performance. Conversely, an underweight position and strong stock selection within North American digital communications infrastructure added to relative returns.

Underlying Manager Cohen & Steers also modestly underperformed its benchmark index during the Reporting Period. The strategy was hampered by ineffective stock selection within utilities as well as by overall positioning within European transportation infrastructure. On the other hand, stock selection within midstream energy and an underweight to non-U.S. cell towers added to relative returns.

In global real estate, which we measure against the FTSE Index, Underlying Manager PRE underperformed the benchmark index during the Reporting Period. The negative results were driven by weak stock selection within specialized real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), especially relative underweight positions in gaming and casino REITs. In addition, challenged stock selection among retail REITs detracted from relative performance. On the positive side, the strategy benefited from an underweight to office REITs.

Also in global real estate, PrinREI moderately underperformed its benchmark index between February 24, 2022, when it was allocated capital as an Underlying Manager for the Fund, and the end of the Reporting Period. Its underperformance was due both to a relative underweight to retail REITs, notably in triple net lease REITs, as well as to an underweight to hotels. Selection within specialized REITs added to returns. Selection among industrial REITs and residential REITs further bolstered performance.

Presima, another global real estate Underlying Manager, outperformed its benchmark index between the beginning of the Reporting Period and February 24, 2022, when it was fully redeemed. Stock selection among real estate operating companies and retail REITs contributed positively to relative returns.

Q How did the Fund use derivatives and similar instruments during the Reporting Period?

A Forward foreign currency exchange contracts were used by Underlying Managers to facilitate equity transactions settling in foreign currencies. The use of forward foreign currency

exchange contracts had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance during the Reporting Period. Real estate index futures were used to equitize the Fund’s cash holdings. In other words, we put the Fund’s cash holdings to work by using them as collateral for the purchase of real estate index futures, which helped us increase the Fund’s exposure to U.S. real estate securities. During the Reporting Period, the use of real estate index futures had a negative impact on the Fund’s performance.

Q Were there any notable changes in the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period?

A We made some changes to the Fund’s allocations during the Reporting Period. In the first quarter of 2022, we reduced the Fund’s overweight allocation relative to the Index in global infrastructure securities. During the third quarter of 2022, we decreased the Fund’s overall allocation to global real estate securities in favor of an increased overall allocation to global infrastructure securities.

In February 2022, Presima was fully redeemed. Presima was removed as an Underlying Manager of the Fund on March 7, 2022.

PrinREI was added as an Underlying Manager in February 2022 and was immediately allocated capital. The AIMS Group selected PrinREI as a replacement for Presima based on its core strategy, which was diversified and which, in the AIMS Group’s view, could be appropriate even on a standalone basis compared to Presima’s more concentrated, satellite approach.

In terms of the Fund’s strategic asset allocation at the start of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated 54.2% to global real estate and 45.8% to global infrastructure, with the remainder in cash and cash equivalents. At the end of the Reporting Period, the Fund’s assets were allocated 59.8% to global real estate and 40.2% to global infrastructure, with the remainder in cash and cash equivalents.

Q What is the Fund’s tactical view and strategy for the months ahead?

A Overall, we intend to continue to position the Fund in alignment with our longer-term strategic views on the real assets complex as a complement to additional strategic market exposures. We further intend to continue to monitor allocations and Underlying Manager performance as we seek to generate long-term capital growth through investments related to real assets.

¹  The midstream component of the energy industry is usually defined as those companies providing products or services that help link the supply side, i.e., energy producers, and the demand side, i.e., energy end-users, for any type of energy commodity. Such midstream businesses can include, but are not limited to, those that process, store, market and transport various energy commodities.

Performance Summary

    October 31, 2022

The following graph shows the value, as of October 31, 2022, of a $1,000,000 investment made on June 30, 2015 (commencement of operations) in Class R6 Shares at NAV. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s current benchmark, the Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Composite Dynamic Index, which is comprised of the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Index (Net, USD, Unhedged) and the Dow Jones Brookfield Global Infrastructure Index (Net, USD, Unhedged), is shown. Performance reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the periods shown and in their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. The returns set forth below represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted below. Please visit our website at www.GSAMFUNDS.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns.

The percentage shown for each investment category reflects the value of investments in that category as a percentage of net assets.

(a) Security with “Call” features with resetting interest rates. Maturity dates disclosed are the final maturity dates.

(b) Exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933.

(c) Pay-in-kind securities.

(d) Variable rate security. Except for floating rate notes (for which final maturity is disclosed), maturity date disclosed is the next interest reset date. Interest rate disclosed is that which is in effect on October 31, 2022.

(e) Guaranteed by a foreign government until maturity. Total market value of these securities amounts to $719,756, which represents approximately 0.1 % of the Fund’s net assets as of October 31, 2022.

These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are subsequently registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time consuming negotiations and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Total market value of Restricted securities amounts to $645,984, which represents approximately 0.1% of the Fund’s net assets as of October 31, 2022. See additional details below:

(k) Actual maturity date is July 28, 2121.

(l) Actual maturity date is April 03, 2120.

(m) Bank Loans often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The degree to which borrowers repay, whether as a contractual requirement or at their election, cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities shown. As bank loan positions may involve multiple underlying tranches for which the aggregate position is presented, the stated interest rate represents the weighted average interest rate of all contracts on October 31, 2022. Bank Loans typically have rates of interest which are predetermined either daily, monthly, quarterly or semi-annually by reference to a base lending rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are primarily the London-Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), and secondarily the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks (the “Prime Rate”) and the certificate of deposit (“CD”) rate or other base lending rates used by commercial lenders.

(n) Represents an affiliated issuer.

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2022

    1.    ORGANIZATION

Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The following table lists those series of the Trust that are included in this report (collectively, the “Funds” or individually a “Fund”), along with their corresponding share classes and respective diversification status under the Act:

Fund	Share Classes Offered	Diversified/ Non-diversified
Multi-Manager Global Equity	Class R6	Diversified
Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income	Class R6	Diversified
Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy	Class R6	Diversified

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”), serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to management agreements (each, an “Agreement”) with the Trust. As of October 31, 2022, GSAM had sub-advisory agreements (the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) for the Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund with Axiom Investors LLC, Boston Partners Global Investors, Inc., Causeway Capital Management LLC, Diamond Hill Capital Management Inc., GW&K Investment Management, LLC, Massachusetts Financial Services Company, doing business as MFS Investment Management, Principal Global Investors, LLC, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., Vaughan Nelson Investment Management, L.P., Vulcan Value Partners, LLC, WCM Investment Management, LLC and Wellington Management Company LLP; for the Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund with Ares Capital Management II LLC, BlueBay Asset Management LLP*, Brigade Capital Management, LP, Marathon Asset Management, L.P., Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, Pacific Asset Management LLC, RBC Global Asset Management (U.S.) Inc.*, River Canyon Fund Management, LLC, and TCW Investment Management Company LLC; and for the Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund with Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc., Principal Real Estate Investors, LLC, PGIM Real Estate, a business unit of PGIM, Inc., and RREEF America L.L.C. (the “Underlying Managers”). Pursuant to the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Underlying Managers are responsible for making investment decisions and managing the investments of the Fund. GSAM compensates the Underlying Managers directly in accordance with the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements. The Funds are not charged any separate or additional investment advisory fees by the Underlying Managers.

*As of November 1, 2021, RBC Global Asset Management (U.S.) Inc. assumed investment management responsibilities from BlueBay Asset Management USA LLC. BlueBay Asset Management LLP and RBC Global Asset Management (U.S.) Inc. co-manage an allocation of global high yield debt for the Fund.

    2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and require management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates and assumptions. Each Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.

A. Investment Valuation — The Funds’ valuation policy is to value investments at fair value.

B. Investment Income and Investments — Investment income includes interest income, dividend income and securities lending income, if any. Interest income is accrued daily and adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign securities, as soon as such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Investment transactions are reflected on trade date. Realized gains and losses are calculated using identified cost. Investment transactions are recorded on the following business day for daily net asset value (“NAV”) calculations. Investment income is recorded net of any foreign withholding taxes, less any amounts reclaimable. The Funds may file withholding tax reclaims in certain jurisdictions to recover a portion of amounts previously withheld. Any foreign capital gains tax is accrued daily based upon net unrealized gains, and is payable upon sale of such investments. Distributions received from the Funds’ investments in U.S. real

                81

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2022

    2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

estate investment trusts (“REITs”) may be characterized as ordinary income, net capital gain and/or a return of capital. A return of capital is recorded by the Funds as a reduction to the cost basis of the REIT.

For derivative contracts, unrealized gains and losses are recorded daily and become realized gains and losses upon disposition or termination of the contract. Upfront payments, if any, are made or received upon entering into a swap agreement and are reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Upfront payments are recognized over the contract’s term/event as realized gains or losses, with the exception of forward starting swap contracts whose realized gains or losses are recognized from the effective start date.

C. Expenses — Expenses incurred directly by a Fund are charged to the Fund, and certain expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated across the applicable Funds on a straight-line and/or pro-rata basis, depending upon the nature of the expenses, and are accrued daily.

D. Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, each Fund is not required to make any provisions for the payment of federal income tax. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gains distributions, if any, are declared and paid according to the following schedule:

Fund	Income Distributions Declared/Paid	Capital Gains Distributions Declared/Paid
Multi-Manager Global Equity	Annually	Annually
Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income	Daily/Monthly	Annually
Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy	Annually	Annually

Net capital losses, if any, are carried forward to future fiscal years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gains distributions.

The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from GAAP. The source of each Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from distributable earnings or capital. Certain components of the Funds’ net assets on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities reflect permanent GAAP/tax differences based on the appropriate tax character.

E. Foreign Currency Translation — The accounting records and reporting currency of a Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates at the close of each business day. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is included within net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investments. Changes in the value of other assets and liabilities as a result of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are included in the Statements of Operations within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency translation. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date the transaction occurred, the effects of which are included within net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

F. Commission Recapture — GSAM, on behalf of certain Funds, may direct portfolio trades, subject to seeking best execution, to various brokers who have agreed to rebate a portion of the commissions generated. Such rebates are made directly to a Fund as cash payments and are included in net realized gain (loss) from investments on the Statements of Operations.

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

U.S. GAAP defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., the exit price); the Funds’ policy is to use the market approach. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to

82                    

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The levels used for classifying investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these investments. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, volatility and credit spreads), either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require significant unobservable inputs (including GSAM’s assumptions in determining fair value measurement).

The Board of Trustees (“Trustees”) has approved Valuation Procedures that govern the valuation of the portfolio investments held by the Funds, including investments for which market quotations are not readily available. With respect to the Funds’ investments that do not have readily available market quotations, the Trustees have designated the Adviser as the valuation designee to perform fair valuations pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Valuation Designee”). GSAM has day-to-day responsibility for implementing and maintaining internal controls and procedures related to the valuation of the Funds’ investments. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, GSAM regularly performs price verification procedures and issues challenges as necessary to third party pricing vendors or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the Valuation Procedures.

A. Level 1 and Level 2 Fair Value Investments — The valuation techniques and significant inputs used in determining the fair values for investments classified as Level 1 and Level 2 are as follows:

Equity Securities — Equity securities traded on a United States (“U.S.”) securities exchange or the NASDAQ system, or those located on certain foreign exchanges, including but not limited to the Americas, are valued daily at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded. If there is no sale or official closing price or such price is believed by GSAM to not represent fair value, equity securities will be valued at the valid closing bid price for long positions and at the valid closing ask price for short positions (i.e., where there is sufficient volume, during normal exchange trading hours). If no valid bid/ask price is available, the equity security will be valued pursuant to the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. To the extent these investments are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are generally classified as Level 2. Certain equity securities containing unique attributes may be classified as Level 2.

Unlisted equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price on the valuation date, or if no sale occurs, at the last bid price for long positions or the last ask price for short positions, and are generally classified as Level 2. Securities traded on certain foreign securities exchanges are valued daily at fair value determined by an independent fair value service (if available) under the Valuation Procedures and consistent with applicable regulatory guidance. The independent fair value service takes into account multiple factors including, but not limited to, movements in the securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign currency exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign securities exchange. These investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Underlying Funds (including Money Market Funds) — Underlying Funds (“Underlying Funds”) include other investment companies and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). Investments in the Underlying Funds (except ETFs) are valued at the NAV per share on the day of valuation. ETFs are valued daily at the last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which the investment is traded. Because the Funds invest in Underlying Funds that fluctuate in value, the Funds’ shares will correspondingly fluctuate in value. Underlying Funds are generally classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. To the extent that underlying ETFs are actively traded, they are classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, otherwise they are

generally classified as Level 2. For information regarding an Underlying Fund’s accounting policies and investment holdings, please see the Underlying Fund’s shareholder report.

Debt Securities — Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued daily on the basis of quotations supplied by dealers or an independent pricing service. The pricing services may use valuation models or matrix pricing, which consider: (i) yield or price with respect to bonds that are considered comparable in characteristics such as rating, interest rate and maturity date or (ii) quotations from securities dealers to determine current value. With the exception of treasury securities of G7 countries, which are generally classified as Level 1, these investments are generally classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

i. Bank Loans — Bank loans (“Loans”) are interests in amounts owed by corporate, governmental, or other borrowers to lenders or lending syndicates. Loans are arranged through private negotiations between the borrower and one or more financial institutions (“Lenders”). A Fund’s investments in Loans are in the form of either participations in Loans (“Participations”) or assignments of all or a portion of Loans from third parties (“Assignments”). With respect to Participations, a Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled from the Lender selling the Participations and only upon receipt by the Lender of the payments from the borrower. A Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement with respect to Participations. Conversely, assignments result in a Fund having a direct contractual relationship with the borrower, and the Fund may be permitted to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement.

The Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund may also enter into certain credit arrangements, all or a portion of which may be unfunded. Unfunded loan commitments represent the remaining obligation of the Fund to the borrower. The Fund is obligated to fund these commitments at the borrower’s discretion. The Fund may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit of a loan. All loans and unfunded loan commitments involve interest rate risk, liquidity risk and credit risk, including the potential default or insolvency of the borrower. Loans, including unfunded loan commitments, are marked to market daily using pricing vendor quotations and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss.

Derivative Contracts — A derivative is an instrument whose value is derived from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors. A Fund enters into derivative transactions to hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices, and/or currency exchange rates, to increase total return, or to gain access to certain markets or attain exposure to other underliers. For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund and cash collateral received, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as either due to broker/receivable for collateral on certain derivative contracts. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedules of Investments.

Exchange-traded derivatives, including futures and options contracts, are generally valued at the last sale or settlement price on the exchange where they are principally traded. Exchange-traded options without settlement prices are generally valued at the midpoint of the bid and ask prices on the exchange where they are principally traded (or, in the absence of two-way trading, at the last bid price for long positions and the last ask price for short positions). Exchange-traded derivatives typically fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) and centrally cleared derivatives are valued using market transactions and other market evidence, including market-based inputs to models, calibration to market-clearing transactions, broker or dealer quotations, or other alternative pricing sources. Where models are used, the selection of a particular model to value OTC and centrally cleared derivatives depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument, as well as the availability of pricing information in the market. Valuation models require a variety of inputs, including contractual terms, market prices, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, voluntary and involuntary prepayment rates, loss severity rates and correlations of such inputs. For OTC and centrally cleared derivatives that trade in liquid markets, model inputs can generally be verified and model selection does not involve significant management judgment. OTC and centrally cleared derivatives are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy when significant inputs are corroborated by market evidence.

i. Forward Contracts — A forward contract is a contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a specified price on a future date. A forward contract settlement can occur on a cash or delivery basis. Forward contracts are marked-to-market daily using independent vendor prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Cash and certain investments may be used to collateralize forward contracts.

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a forward contract in which a Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. All forward foreign currency exchange contracts are marked to market daily by using the outright forward rates or interpolating based upon maturity dates, where available. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in cash without the delivery of foreign currency.

ii. Futures Contracts — Futures contracts are contracts to buy or sell a standardized quantity of a specified commodity or security. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund deposits cash or securities in an account on behalf of the broker in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin requirement. Subsequent payments are made or received by a Fund equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable with a corresponding offset to unrealized gains or losses.

iii. Swap Contracts — Bilateral swap contracts are agreements in which a Fund and a counterparty agree to exchange periodic payments on a specified notional amount or make a net payment upon termination. Bilateral swap transactions are privately negotiated in the OTC market and payments are settled through direct payments between a Fund and the counterparty. By contrast, certain swap transactions are subject to mandatory central clearing. These swaps are executed through a derivatives clearing member (“DCM”), acting in an agency capacity, and submitted to a central counterparty (“CCP”) (“centrally cleared swaps”), in which case all payments are settled with the CCP through the DCM. Swaps are marked-to-market daily using pricing vendor quotations, counterparty or clearinghouse prices or model prices, and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Upon entering into a swap contract, a Fund is required to satisfy an initial margin requirement by delivering cash or securities to the counterparty (or in some cases, segregated in a triparty account on behalf of the counterparty), which can be adjusted by any mark-to-market gains or losses pursuant to bilateral or centrally cleared arrangements. For centrally cleared swaps the daily change in valuation, if any, is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin.

A credit default swap is an agreement that involves one party (the buyer of protection) making a stream of payments to another party (the seller of protection) in exchange for the right to receive protection on a reference security or obligation, including a group of assets or exposure to the performance of an index. A Fund’s investment in credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the Fund had invested in the referenced obligation directly. Credit events are contract specific but may include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring and obligation acceleration. If a Fund buys protection through a credit default swap and no credit event occurs, its payments are limited to the periodic payments previously made to the counterparty. Upon the occurrence of a specified credit event, a Fund, as a buyer of credit protection, is entitled to receive an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver to the seller the defaulted reference obligation in a physically settled trade. A Fund may also receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap reduced by the recovery value of the reference obligation in a cash settled trade.

As a seller of protection, a Fund generally receives a payment stream throughout the term of the swap, provided that there is no credit event. In addition, if a Fund sells protection through a credit default swap, the Fund could suffer a loss because the value of the referenced obligation and the premium payments received may be less than the notional amount of the swap paid to the buyer of protection. Upon the occurrence of a specified credit event, a Fund, as a seller of credit protection, may be required to take possession of the defaulted reference obligation and pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap in a physically settled trade. A Fund may also pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap reduced by the recovery value of the reference obligation in a cash settled trade. Recovery values are at times established through the credit event auction process in which market participants are ensured that a transparent price has been set for the defaulted security or obligation. In addition, a Fund is entitled to a return of any assets, which have been pledged as collateral to the counterparty upon settlement.

    3.    INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (continued)

The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Fund as seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations or net amounts received from a settlement of a credit default swap for the same reference security or obligation where a Fund bought credit protection.

B. Level 3 Fair Value Investments — To the extent that significant inputs to valuation models and other alternative pricing sources are unobservable, or if quotations are not readily available, or if GSAM believes that such quotations do not accurately reflect fair value, the fair value of a Fund’s investments may be determined under the Valuation Procedures. GSAM, consistent with its procedures and applicable regulatory guidance, may make an adjustment to the most recent valuation prices of either domestic or foreign securities in light of significant events to reflect what it believes to be the fair value of the securities at the time of determining a Fund’s NAV. To the extent investments are valued using single source broker quotations obtained directly from the broker or passed through from third party pricing vendors, such investments are classified as Level 3 investments.

C. Fair Value Hierarchy — The following is a summary of the Funds’ investments and derivatives classified in the fair value hierarchy as of October 31, 2022:

     5.    AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS

A.  Management Agreement — Under the Agreement, GSAM manages the Funds, subject to the general supervision of the Trustees.

As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administration of the Funds’ business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, contractual and effective net management fees with GSAM were at the following rates:

	Contractual Management Rate						Effective Net Management Rate^*
Fund	First $1 billion	Next $1 billion	Next $3 billion	Next $3 billion	Over $8 billion	Effective Rate
Multi-Manager Global Equity	1.03%	0.93%	0.89%	0.87%	0.84%	1.03%	0.40%
Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income	0.85	0.85	0.77	0.73	0.71	0.85	0.39
Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy	1.00	0.90	0.86	0.84	0.82	1.00	0.53

* GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee for each Fund in order to achieve an effective net management fee rate that is equal to the actual cost of fees paid to the Fund’s Underlying Managers. These arrangements will remain in effect through at least February 28, 2023, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Board of Trustees.

^ Effective Net Management Rate includes the impact of management fee waivers of affiliated underlying funds, if any.

The Funds invest in Institutional Shares and/or Class R6 Shares of the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund, which is an affiliated Underlying Fund. GSAM has agreed to waive a portion of its management fee payable by the Funds in an amount equal to the management fee it earns as an investment adviser to the affiliated Underlying Fund in which the Funds invest. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, GSAM waived $47,011, $123,194 and $23,791 of the Multi-Manager Global Equity, Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income and Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Funds’ management fees, respectively.

B. Transfer Agency Agreement — Goldman Sachs also serves as the transfer agent of the Funds for a fee pursuant to the Transfer Agency Agreement. The fees charged for such transfer agency services are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates of 0.02% of the average daily net assets of Class R6 Shares.

C. Other Expense Agreements and Affiliated Transactions — GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit each Fund’s “Total Annual Operating Expenses” (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such Total Annual Operating Expense reimbursements, if any,

90                    

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

     5.    AGREEMENTS AND AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS (continued)

are accrued daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Funds are not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any. The Total Annual Operating Expense limitations as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets for the Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund, Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund and Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund are 0.75%, 0.70%, and 0.90% respectively. In addition, GSAM has agreed to reduce or limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses, transfer agency fees and expenses, service fees, taxes, interest, brokerage fees, expenses of shareholder meetings, litigation and indemnification, and extraordinary expenses) to 0.10% of its average daily net assets. The Total Annual Operating Expenses and Other Expense limitations will remain in place through at least February 28, 2023, and prior to such date GSAM may not terminate the arrangements without the approval of the Trustees. In addition, the Funds have entered into certain offset arrangements with the transfer agent, which may result in a reduction of the Funds’ expenses and are received irrespective of the application of the “Other Expense” limitations described above.

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, these expense reductions, including any fee waivers and Other Expense reimbursements, were as follows:

Fund	Management Fee Waiver		Other Expense Reimbursements		Total Expense Reductions
Multi-Manager Global Equity		$2,716,341		$1,413,285		$4,129,626
Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income		5,629,227		—		5,629,227
Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy		2,535,532		—		2,535,532

D. Line of Credit Facility — As of October 31, 2022, the Funds participated in a $1,250,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility (the “facility”) together with other funds of the Trust and certain registered investment companies having management agreements with GSAM or its affiliates. This facility is to be used for temporary emergency purposes, or to allow for an orderly liquidation of securities to meet redemption requests. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the Funds did not have any borrowings under the facility. Prior to April 22, 2022, the facility was $1,000,000,000.

E. Other Transactions with Affiliates — For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, Goldman Sachs earned $206 and $2,068 in brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions, including futures transactions executed with Goldman Sachs as the Futures Commission Merchant, on behalf of the Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund, Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund and Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund, respectively.

The following table provides information about the Funds’ investments in the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Government Fund as of and for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022:

    7.     TAX INFORMATION (continued)

As of the Funds’ most recent fiscal year end, October 31, 2022, the Funds’ capital loss carryforwards and certain timing differences on a tax basis were as follows:

	Multi-Manager Global Equity		Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income		Multi-Manager  Real Assets  Strategy
Undistributed ordinary income — net	$	15,869,607	$	—	$	3,174,048

Total accumulated earnings (loss) net	$	21,761,443	$	(265,583,659)	$	30,064

As of October 31, 2022, the Funds’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:

			Multi-Manager		Multi-Manager
	Multi-Manager		Non-Core		Real Assets
	Global Equity		Fixed Income		Strategy
Tax Cost	$	401,363,123	$	1,135,242,795	$	426,242,388
Gross unrealized gain		36,260,778		6,045,179		33,413,843
Gross unrealized loss		(52,681,733)		(170,911,307)		(56,735,511)
Net unrealized loss on securities	$	(16,420,955)	$	(164,866,128)	$	(23,321,668)

The difference between GAAP-basis and tax basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales, net mark to market gains (losses) on regulated futures, net mark to market gains (losses) on foreign currency contracts, and differences in the tax treatment of swap transactions, material modification of debt securities, market discount accretion and premium amortization, passive foreign investment company investments.

GSAM has reviewed the Funds’ tax positions for all open tax years (the current and prior three years, as applicable) and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

    8.     OTHER RISKS

The Funds’ risks include, but are not limited to, the following:

Derivatives Risk — The Funds’ use of derivatives and other similar instruments (together, referred to in this paragraph as “derivatives”) may result in loss, including due to adverse market movements. Derivatives, which may pose risks in addition to and greater than those associated with investing directly in securities, currencies or other instruments, may be illiquid or less liquid, volatile, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes in the value of the underlying instruments may produce disproportionate losses to the Funds. Changes in the value of a derivative may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for the Funds. Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction

            93

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2022

     8.     OTHER RISKS (continued)

will not, or lacks the capacity or authority to, fulfill its contractual obligation. The use of derivatives is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with investments in more traditional securities and instruments. The use of derivatives is also subject to operational and legal risks. Operational risks refer to risks related to potential operational issues, including documentation issues, settlement issues, system failures, inadequate controls, and human error. Legal risks refer to the risks of loss resulting from insufficient documentation, or legality or enforceability of a contract. Losses from derivatives can also result from a lack of correlation between changes in the value of derivative instruments and the portfolio assets (if any) being hedged.

Dividend-Paying Investments Risk — A Fund’s investments in dividend-paying securities could cause a Fund to underperform other funds. Securities that pay dividends, as a group, can fall out of favor with the market, causing such securities to underperform securities that do not pay dividends. Depending upon market conditions and political and legislative responses to such conditions, dividend-paying securities that meet a Fund’s investment criteria may not be widely available and/or may be highly concentrated in only a few market sectors. In addition, issuers that have paid regular dividends or distributions to shareholders may not continue to do so at the same level or at all in the future. This may limit the ability of a Fund to produce current income.

Floating and Variable Rate Obligations Risk — Floating rate and variable rate obligations are debt instruments issued by companies or other entities with interest rates that reset periodically (typically daily, monthly, quarterly, or semiannually) in response to changes in the market rate of interest on which the interest rate is based. Such market rates are generally the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), the Prime Rate of a designated U.S. bank, the Federal Funds Rate, or another base lending rate used by commercial lenders. For floating and variable rate obligations, there may be a lag between an actual change in the underlying interest rate benchmark and the reset time for an interest payment of such an obligation, which could harm or benefit the Fund, depending on the interest rate environment or other circumstances. In a rising interest rate environment, for example, a floating or variable rate obligation that does not reset immediately would prevent the Fund from taking full advantage of rising interest rates in a timely manner. However, in a declining interest rate environment, the Fund may benefit from a lag due to an obligation’s interest rate payment not being immediately impacted by a decline in interest rates.

At the end of 2021, certain LIBORs were discontinued, but the most widely used LIBORs may continue to be provided on a representative basis until June 2023. The unavailability or replacement of LIBOR may affect the value, liquidity or return on certain Fund investments and may result in costs incurred in connection with closing out positions and entering into new trades. Any pricing adjustments to a Fund’s investments resulting from a substitute reference rate may also adversely affect the Fund’s performance and/or NAV.

Foreign and Emerging Countries Risk — Investing in foreign markets may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in the U.S. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of more or less foreign government regulation; less public information; less stringent investor protections; less stringent accounting, corporate governance, financial reporting and disclosure standards; and less economic, political and social stability in the countries in which a Fund invests. The imposition of sanctions, exchange controls (including repatriation restrictions), confiscation of assets and property, trade restrictions (including tariffs) and other government restrictions by the U.S. or other governments, or from problems in share registration, settlement or custody, may also result in losses. The type and severity of sanctions and other similar measures, including counter sanctions and other retaliatory actions, that may be imposed could vary broadly in scope, and their impact is impossible to predict. For example, the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures could, among other things, cause a decline in the value and/or liquidity of securities issued by the sanctioned country or companies located in or economically tied to the sanctioned country and increase market volatility and disruption in the sanctioned country and throughout the world. Sanctions and other similar measures could limit or prevent a Fund from buying and selling securities (in the sanctioned country and other markets), significantly delay or prevent the settlement of securities transactions, and significantly impact a Fund’s liquidity and performance. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which a Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. To the extent that a Fund also invests in securities of issuers located in, or economically tied to, emerging markets, these risks may be more pronounced.

94    

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

     8.    OTHER RISKS (continued)

Foreign Custody Risk — The Fund invests in foreign securities, and as such the Fund may hold such securities and cash with foreign banks, agents, and securities depositories appointed by the Fund’s custodian (each a “Foreign Custodian”). Some foreign custodians may be recently organized or new to the foreign custody business. In some countries, Foreign Custodians may be subject to little or no regulatory oversight over, or independent evaluation of, their operations. Further, the laws of certain countries may place limitations on the Fund’s ability to recover its assets if a Foreign Custodian enters bankruptcy. Investments in emerging markets may be subject to even greater custody risks than investments in more developed markets. Custody services in emerging market countries are very often undeveloped and may be considerably less well regulated than in more developed countries, and thus may not afford the same level of investor protection as would apply in developed countries.

Industry Concentration Risk — Concentrating Fund investments in a limited number of issuers conducting business in the same industry or group of industries will subject the Fund to a greater risk of loss as a result of adverse economic, business, political, environmental or other developments than if its investments were diversified across different industries.

Interest Rate Risk — When interest rates increase, fixed income securities or instruments held by a Fund will generally decline in value. The Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk in connection with the type and extent of certain monetary policy changes made by the Federal Reserve, such as target interest rate changes. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short-term fixed income securities or instruments. A wide variety of market factors can cause interest rates to rise, including central bank monetary policy, rising inflation and changes in general economic conditions. The risks associated with changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on the markets and a Fund’s investments. Fluctuations in interest rates may also affect the liquidity of fixed income securities and instruments held by the Funds. A sudden or unpredictable increase in interest rates may cause volatility in the market and may decrease the liquidity of the Fund’s investments, which would make it harder for the Fund to sell its investments at an advantageous time.

Investments in Other Investment Companies Risk — As a shareholder of another investment company, including an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”), a Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any net management fees and other expenses paid by such other investment companies, in addition to the fees and expenses regularly borne by the Fund. ETFs are subject to risks that do not apply to conventional mutual funds, including but not limited to the following: (i) the market price of the ETF’s shares may trade at a premium or a discount to their NAV; and (ii) an active trading market for an ETF’s shares may not develop or be maintained.

Large Shareholder Transactions Risk — A Fund may experience adverse effects when certain large shareholders, such as other funds, institutional investors (including those trading by use of non-discretionary mathematical formulas), financial intermediaries (who may make investment decisions on behalf of underlying clients and/or include a Fund in their investment model), individuals, accounts and Goldman Sachs affiliates, purchase or redeem large amounts of shares of a Fund. Such large shareholder redemptions, which may occur rapidly or unexpectedly, may cause a Fund to sell portfolio securities at times when it would not otherwise do so, which may negatively impact a Fund’s NAV and liquidity. These transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income to shareholders if such sales of investments resulted in gains, and may also increase transaction costs. In addition, a large redemption could result in a Fund’s current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, leading to an increase in the Fund’s expense ratio. Similarly, large Fund share purchases may adversely affect a Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash or otherwise maintains a larger cash position than it ordinarily would.

Liquidity Risk — A Fund may make investments that are illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that a Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period or without significant dilution to remaining investors’ interests because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, a Fund may be forced to sell investments at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions. If a Fund is forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions, such sales may adversely affect Fund’s NAV and dilute remaining investors’ interests. Liquidity risk may be the result of, among other things, the reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities or the lack of an active market. The potential for liquidity risk may be magnified by a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where

                95

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

October 31, 2022

     8.     OTHER RISKS (continued)

investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, potentially causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. These risks may be more pronounced in connection with the Funds’ investments in securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. Redemptions by large shareholders may have a negative impact on a Fund’s liquidity.

Loan-Related Investments Risk — In addition to risks generally associated with debt investments (e.g., interest rate risk and default risk), loan-related investments such as loan participations and assignments are subject to other risks. Although a loan obligation may be fully collateralized at the time of acquisition, the collateral may decline in value, or become illiquid or less liquid, or lose all or substantially all of its value subsequent to investment. Many loan investments are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and certain loan investments may be or become illiquid or less liquid and more difficult to value, particularly in the event of a downgrade of the loan or the borrower. There is less readily available, reliable information about most loan investments than is the case for many other types of securities. Substantial increases in interest rates may cause an increase in loan obligation defaults. With respect to loan participations, the Fund may not always have direct recourse against a borrower if the borrower fails to pay scheduled principal and/or interest; may be subject to greater delays, expenses and risks than if the Fund had purchased a direct obligation of the borrower; and may be regarded as the creditor of the agent lender (rather than the borrower), subjecting the Fund to the creditworthiness of that lender as well. Investors in loans, such as the Fund, may not be entitled to rely on the anti-fraud protections of the federal securities laws, although they may be entitled to certain contractual remedies. The market for loan obligations may be subject to irregular trading activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods. Because transactions in many loans are subject to extended trade settlement periods, the Fund may not receive the proceeds from the sale of a loan for a period after the sale. As a result, sale proceeds related to the sale of loans may not be available to make additional investments or to meet the Fund’s redemption obligations for a period after the sale of the loans, and, as a result, the Fund may have to sell other investments or engage in borrowing transactions, such as borrowing from its credit facility, if necessary to raise cash to meet its obligations.

Senior Loans hold the most senior position in the capital structure of a business entity, and are typically secured with specific collateral, but are nevertheless usually rated below investment grade. Because Second Lien Loans are subordinated or unsecured and thus lower in priority of payment to Senior Loans, they are subject to the additional risk that the cash flow of the borrower and property securing the loan or debt, if any, may be insufficient to meet scheduled payments after giving effect to the senior secured obligations of the borrower. Second Lien Loans generally have greater price volatility than Senior Loans and may be less liquid.

Market and Credit Risks — In the normal course of business, a Fund trades financial instruments and enters into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk). The value of the securities in which a Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular sectors or governments and/or general economic conditions throughout the world due to increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. Events such as war, acts of terrorism, social unrest, natural disasters, the spread of infectious illness or other public health threats could also significantly impact a Fund and its investments. Additionally, a Fund may also be exposed to credit risk in the event that an issuer or guarantor fails to perform or that an institution or entity with which the Fund has unsettled or open transactions defaults.

Multi-Manager Approach Risk — The Funds’ performance depends on the ability of the Investment Adviser in selecting, overseeing, and allocating Fund assets to the Underlying Managers. The Underlying Managers’ investment styles may not always be complementary. The Funds’ multi-manager approach may result in the Fund investing a significant percentage of its assets in certain types of investments, which could be beneficial or detrimental to the Funds’ performance depending on the performance of those investments and the overall market environment. The Funds’ Underlying Managers may underperform the market generally or underperform other investment managers that could have been selected for the Funds. Because the Funds’ Underlying Managers may trade with counterparties, prime brokers, clearing brokers or futures commission merchants on terms that are different than those on which the Investment Adviser would trade, and because each Underlying Manager applies its own risk analysis in evaluating potential counterparties for the Funds, the Funds may be subject to greater counterparty risk than if they were managed directly by the Investment Adviser.

     9.    INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees, officers, employees and agents are indemnified, to the extent permitted by the Act and state law, against certain liabilities that may arise out of performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnification clauses. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, GSAM believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.

     10.    SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date have been evaluated, and GSAM has concluded that there is no impact requiring adjustment or disclosure in the financial statements.

     11.    OTHER MATTERS

In late February 2022, Russia began an invasion of Ukraine. Following such invasion, the United States, the European Union, and other countries and entities imposed wide-ranging sanctions on Russia and related entities. Certain Funds have limited market value in Russian and Ukrainian securities, which are being valued to reflect the limited liquidity and transferability in the current environment. With the closure of local Russian markets and imposition of sanctions in late February and early March, there are currently limited portfolio management actions possible as many of these assets are either sanctioned and/or cannot be transferred or settled. These sanctions and current environment could impair the ability of these Funds to buy, sell, hold, receive, deliver or otherwise transact in certain securities and other instruments. The full impact of the sanctions and the conflict on these Funds, the financial markets and the global economy is not yet known. Management is continuing to monitor these developments and evaluate other impacts they may have on these Funds.

Report of Independent Registered Public

Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of Goldman Sachs Trust II and Shareholders of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund, Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund, and Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund, Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund, and Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund (three of the funds constituting Goldman Sachs Trust II, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of October 31, 2022, the related statements of operations for the year ended October 31, 2022, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2022, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended October 31, 2022 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of October 31, 2022, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended October 31, 2022 and each of the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period ended October 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions

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

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2022 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Fund Expenses — Six Month Period Ended October 31, 2022 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of Class R6 Shares of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges on purchase payments, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from May 01, 2022 through October 31, 2022, which represents a period of 184 days of a 365-day year. This projection assumes that annualized expense ratios were in effect during the period.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual net expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

* Expenses for each share class are calculated using each Fund’s annualized net expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended October 31, 2022. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the annualized net expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized net expense ratios for the period were as follows:

Fund	Class R6

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited)

Background

The Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund, Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund, and Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund (the “Funds”) are investment portfolios of Goldman Sachs Trust II (the “Trust”). The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) oversees the management of the Trust and reviews the investment performance and expenses of the Funds at regularly scheduled meetings held throughout the year. Each Fund employs a “manager of managers” structure, whereby Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) is responsible for selecting sub-advisers (subject to Board approval), allocating the Fund’s assets among them, and overseeing their day-to-day management of Fund assets. The Board determines annually whether to approve the continuance of the Trust’s investment management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Investment Adviser on behalf of the Funds.

The Management Agreement was approved for continuation until June 30, 2023 at a meeting on June 9-10, 2022 and was most recently approved for continuation until September 30, 2023 at a meeting held on September 19-20, 2022 (together, the “Annual Meetings”) by the Board, including those Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreement or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”). At the Annual Meetings, the Board also considered the sub-advisory agreements (each a “Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement” and, together with the Management Agreement, the “Agreements”) between the Investment Adviser and (i) each of Axiom Investors LLC, Boston Partners Global Investors, Inc., Causeway Capital Management LLC, GW&K Investment Management, LLC, Massachusetts Financial Services Company (d/b/a MFS Investment Management), Principal Global Investors, LLC, Vaughan Nelson Investment Management, L.P., Vulcan Value Partners, LLC, WCM Investment Management, and Wellington Management Company LLP (on behalf of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund); (ii) each of Ares Capital Management II LLC, BlueBay Asset Management LLP, Brigade Capital Management, LP, Marathon Asset Management, L.P., Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, River Canyon Fund Management LLC, RBC Global Asset Management (U.S.) Inc. and TCW Investment Management Company LLC (on behalf of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund); and (iii) each of Cohen & Steers Capital Management, Inc., PGIM Real Estate, a business unit of PGIM, Inc., and RREEF America L.L.C. (on behalf of Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund) (each, a “Designated Sub-Adviser” and collectively, the “Designated Sub-Advisers”).

The review process undertaken by the Trustees spans the course of the year and culminates with the Annual Meetings. To assist the Trustees in their deliberations, the Trustees have established a Contract Review Committee (the “Committee”), comprised of the Independent Trustees. The Committee held five meetings over the course of the year since the Management Agreement was last approved. At those Committee meetings, regularly scheduled Board or other committee meetings, and/or the Annual Meetings, matters relevant to the renewal of the Management Agreement and the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements were considered by the Board, or the Independent Trustees, as applicable. With respect to each Fund, such matters included:

(a) the nature and quality of the advisory, administrative, and other services provided to the Fund by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, and the Designated Sub-Advisers, including, as applicable, information about:

(i) the structure, staff, and capabilities of the Investment Adviser and the Designated Sub-Advisers and the Designated Sub-Advisers’ portfolio management teams;

(ii) the groups within the Investment Adviser and its affiliates that support the portfolio management teams or provide other types of necessary services, including fund services groups (e.g., accounting and financial reporting, tax, shareholder services, and operations); controls and risk management groups (e.g., legal, compliance, valuation oversight, credit risk management, internal audit, compliance testing, market risk analysis, finance, and central funding); sales and distribution support groups, and others (e.g., information technology and training);

(iii) trends in employee headcount;

(iv) the Investment Adviser’s financial resources and ability to hire and retain talented personnel and strengthen its operations; and

(v) the parent company’s support of the Investment Adviser and its mutual fund business, as expressed by the firm’s senior management;

(b) information on the investment performance of the Fund, including comparisons to the performance of similar mutual funds, as provided by a third-party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the contract review process (the “Outside Data Provider”), benchmark performance indices, and, with respect to the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund, commingled investment vehicles with comparable investment strategies managed by the Investment Adviser, and information on general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Fund invests;

(c) information provided by the Investment Adviser indicating the Investment Adviser’s views on whether the Fund’s peer group and/or benchmark index had high, medium, or low relevance given the Fund’s particular investment strategy;

                101

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

(d) the terms of the Agreements and other agreements with affiliated service providers entered into by the Trust on behalf of the Fund;

(e) fee and expense information for the Fund, including:

(i) the relative management fee and expense levels of the Fund as compared to those of comparable funds managed by other advisers, as provided by the Outside Data Provider;

(ii) the Fund’s expense trends over time; and

(iii) with respect to the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund, comparative information on the advisory fees charged and services provided by the Investment Adviser to certain collective investment vehicles that it manages with comparable investment strategies;

(f) with respect to the extensive investment performance and expense comparison data provided by the Outside Data Provider, its processes in producing that data for the Fund;

(g) the undertakings of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to implement fee waivers and expense limitations;

(h) information relating to the profitability of the Management Agreement and the transfer agency arrangements of the Fund to the Investment Adviser and its affiliates;

(i) whether the Fund’s existing management fee schedule adequately addressed any economies of scale;

(j) a summary of the “fall-out” benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Fund, including the fees received by the Investment Adviser’s affiliates from the Fund for transfer agency, portfolio trading, distribution and other services;

(k) a summary of potential benefits derived by the Fund as a result of its relationship with the Investment Adviser;

(l) with respect to the Investment Adviser, portfolio manager ownership of Fund shares; the manner in which portfolio manager compensation is determined; information on the Designated Sub-Advisers’ compensation arrangements; and the number and types of accounts managed by the portfolio managers;

(m) the nature and quality of the services provided to the Fund by its unaffiliated service providers (as well as the Designated Sub-Advisers), and the Investment Adviser’s general oversight and evaluation (including reports on due diligence) of those service providers as part of the administrative services provided under the Management Agreement; and

(n) the Investment Adviser’s and Designated Sub-Advisers’ processes and policies addressing various types of potential conflicts of interest; their approaches to risk management; the annual review of the effectiveness of the Fund’s compliance program; and periodic compliance reports.

The Trustees also received an overview of the Funds’ distribution arrangements. They received information regarding the Funds’ assets and share purchase and redemption activity. Information was also provided to the Trustees relating to revenue sharing payments made by and services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to intermediaries that promote the sale, distribution, and/or servicing of Fund shares.

The presentations made at the Board and Committee meetings and at the Annual Meetings encompassed the Funds and other mutual funds for which the Board has responsibility. In evaluating the Agreements at the Annual Meetings, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of the Funds and the respective services of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, and the Designated Sub-Advisers. In conjunction with these meetings, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations on the topics covered, and the Investment Adviser addressed the questions and concerns of the Trustees, including concerns regarding the investment performance of certain of the funds they oversee. In addition, the Trustees periodically received written materials and oral presentations from the Funds’ various sub-advisers, including the Designated Sub-Advisers. The Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities and other regulatory requirements related to the approval and continuation of mutual fund investment management agreements under applicable law. In addition, the Investment Adviser and its affiliates provided the Independent Trustees with a written response to a formal request for information sent on behalf of the Independent Trustees by their independent legal counsel. The Trustees reviewed a written response prepared by each Designated Sub-Adviser to a similar request for information submitted to the Designated Sub-Adviser by the Investment Adviser. During the course of their deliberations, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions with their independent legal counsel, without representatives of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates present.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Management Agreements

As part of their review, the Trustees considered the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Funds by the Investment Adviser. In this regard, the Trustees considered both the investment advisory services and non-advisory services that are provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees noted the transition in the leadership and the changes in

102                    

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

personnel of various of the Investment Adviser’s portfolio management teams that had occurred in recent periods, and the ongoing recruitment efforts aimed at bringing high quality investment talent to the Investment Adviser. They also noted the Investment Adviser’s commitment to maintaining high quality systems and expending substantial resources to respond to ongoing changes to the market, regulatory and control environment in which the Funds and their service providers operate, including developments associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical events, and economic sanctions, as well as the efforts of the Investment Adviser and its affiliates to combat cyber security risks. The Trustees also considered information regarding the Investment Adviser’s and the Funds’ various sub-advisers’ business continuity planning and remote operations capabilities. The Trustees concluded that the Investment Adviser continued to commit substantial financial and operational resources to the Funds and expressed confidence that the Investment Adviser would continue to do so in the future. The Trustees also recognized that the Investment Adviser had made significant commitments to address regulatory compliance requirements applicable to the Funds and the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the sub-adviser oversight process that the Investment Adviser had employed, which included areas such as investment analytics, risk management and compliance.

Investment Performance

The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds. In this regard, they compared the investment performance of each Fund to its peers using rankings and ratings compiled by the Outside Data Provider as of December 31, 2021, and updated performance information prepared by the Investment Adviser as of March 31, 2022. The Trustees also reviewed each Fund’s investment performance relative to its performance benchmark. As part of this review, they considered the investment performance trends of the Funds over time, and reviewed the investment performance of each Fund in light of its investment objective and policies and market conditions. The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s representations that each Fund had significant differences from its Outside Data Provider peer group that caused it to be an imperfect basis for comparison. The Trustees also received information comparing the performance of the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund to that of comparable unregistered funds managed by the Investment Adviser. They considered that the unregistered funds provide an imperfect performance comparison because they are not subject to the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

In addition, the Trustees considered materials prepared and presentations made by the Investment Adviser’s senior management and the Designated Sub-Advisers’ portfolio management personnel in which Fund performance was assessed. The Trustees also considered the Investment Adviser’s periodic reports with respect to the Funds’ risk profiles, and how the Investment Adviser’s approach to risk monitoring and management influences portfolio management.

The Trustees noted that the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund had placed in the top half of its performance peer group for the one- and three-year periods and in the third quartile for the five-year period ended December 31, 2021 and had underperformed its benchmark index for the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended March 31, 2022. They observed that Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund had placed in the third quartile of its performance peer group for the one-year period and in the top half for the three- and five-year periods ended December 31, 2021 and had outperformed its composite benchmark index for the one- and three-year periods and underperformed for the five-year period ended March 31, 2022. The Trustees noted that the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund had placed in the top half of its performance peer group for the one-, three, and five-year periods ended December 31, 2021, and had outperformed its composite benchmark index for the one-, three, and five-year periods ended March 31, 2022.

Costs of Services Provided and Competitive Information

The Trustees considered the contractual terms of the Management Agreement and the fee rates payable by each Fund thereunder. In this regard, the Trustees considered information on the services rendered by the Investment Adviser to the Funds, which included both advisory and administrative services that were directed to the needs and operations of the Funds as registered mutual funds.

In particular, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider regarding the expense rankings of the Funds, as well as additional information provided by the Investment Adviser throughout the year. The analyses provided a comparison of each Fund’s management fee and breakpoints to those of a relevant peer group and category universe; an expense analysis which compared each Fund’s overall net and gross expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and data comparing each Fund’s net expenses to the peer and category medians. The analyses also compared each Fund’s other expenses and fee waivers/reimbursements to those of the peer group and category medians. With respect to the Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund, the Trustees also considered comparative fee information for services provided by the Investment Adviser to collective investment vehicles having investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Fund. The Trustees considered that

                103

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

services provided to the Funds differed in various significant respects from the services provided to these collective investment vehicles, which generally operated under less stringent regulatory and financial reporting requirements and required fewer services from the Investment Adviser. The Trustees concluded that the comparisons provided by the Outside Data Provider and the Investment Adviser were useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees and total expenses paid by the Funds.

The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to waive a portion of the management fee payable by each Fund. In this regard the Trustees noted that shareholders that are invested in the Funds consist of institutional clients that have entered into a separate management agreement with the Investment Adviser and pay a single management fee for the Investment Adviser’s management of their accounts, and that the Investment Adviser waives a portion of the management fee with respect to each Fund in order to achieve an effective net management fee rate that is equal to the actual cost of fees paid to the Fund’s sub-advisers. They also considered the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels. In addition, the Trustees noted that shareholders are able to redeem their shares at any time if shareholders believe that the Fund fees and expenses are too high or if they are dissatisfied with the performance of the Fund.

Profitability

The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s contribution to the Investment Adviser’s revenues and pre-tax profit margins. In this regard the Trustees noted that they had received, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules by Fund and by function (i.e., investment management, transfer agency and distribution and service), and information on the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. They observed that the profitability and expense figures are substantially similar to those used by the Investment Adviser for many internal purposes, including compensation decisions among various business groups, and are thus subject to a vigorous internal debate about how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. The Trustees also noted that the internal audit group within the Goldman Sachs organization periodically audits the expense allocation methodology and that the internal audit group was satisfied with the reasonableness, consistency, and accuracy of the Investment Adviser’s expense allocation methodology. Profitability data for each Fund was provided for 2021 and 2020, and the Trustees considered this information in relation to the Investment Adviser’s overall profitability.

Economies of Scale

The Trustees considered the information that had been provided regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Funds. The Trustees also considered that the Funds are offered to the Investment Adviser’s institutional clients as part of an investment model whereby the Funds and other funds act as core “building blocks” with which the client and the Investment Adviser form an investment strategy for the client’s portfolio. The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s representations that its clients benefit from this investment model with increased liquidity, increased investment oversight, access to new investment strategies, economies of scale, and reduced complexity in managing client portfolios. The Trustees noted that, pursuant to the model, clients pay a management fee for the Investment Adviser’s management of their accounts, and that the fund-level management fees in excess of the weighted average sub-advisory fees are waived in order to avoid charging two layers of management fees. The Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the fee rate payable under the Management Agreement for each of the Funds at the following annual percentage rates of the average daily net assets of the Funds:

Average Daily Net Assets	Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Global Equity Fund	Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Non-Core Fixed Income Fund	Goldman Sachs Multi-Manager Real Assets Strategy Fund
First $1 billion	1.03%	0.85%	1.00%
Next $1 billion	0.93	0.85	0.90
Next $3 billion	0.89	0.77	0.86
Next $3 billion	0.87	0.73	0.84
Over $8 billion	0.84	0.71	0.82

The Trustees noted that the breakpoints were designed to share potential economies of scale, if any, with the Funds and their shareholders as assets under management reach those asset levels. The Trustees considered the amounts of assets in the Funds; the Funds’ recent purchase and redemption activity; the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and the profits realized by them (if any); information comparing the fee rates charged by the Investment Adviser with fee rates charged to other funds in the peer groups; and the Investment Adviser’s undertakings to waive a portion of its management fee and to limit certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels. The

104

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

Trustees also considered the relationship between the advisory and sub-advisory fee rate schedules. Upon reviewing these matters at the Annual Meetings, the Trustees concluded that the fee breakpoints represented a means of assuring that benefits of scalability, if any, would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels.

Other Benefits to the Investment Adviser and Its Affiliates

The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationships with the Funds, as stated above, including: (a) transfer agency fees received by Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“Goldman Sachs”); (b) brokerage and futures commissions earned by Goldman Sachs for executing securities transactions (in its capacity as clearing broker) and futures transactions on behalf of the Funds; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to leverage the infrastructure designed to service the Funds on behalf of its other clients; (d) the Investment Adviser’s ability to cross-market other products and services to Fund shareholders; (e) the Investment Adviser’s ability to negotiate better pricing with the Funds’ custodian on behalf of its other clients, as a result of the relationship with the Funds; (f) the investment of cash in money market funds managed by the Investment Adviser that will result in increased assets under management for those money market funds; and (g) the possibility that the working relationship between the Investment Adviser and the Funds’ third-party service providers (including the Funds’ sub-advisers) may cause those service providers to be more likely to do business with other areas of Goldman Sachs. In the course of considering the foregoing, the Independent Trustees requested and received further information quantifying certain of these fall-out benefits.

Other Benefits to the Funds and Their Shareholders

The Trustees also noted that the Funds receive certain other potential benefits as a result of their relationship with the Investment Adviser, including: (a) enhanced servicing from vendors due to the volume of business generated by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates; (b) the advantages received from the Investment Adviser’s knowledge and experience gained from managing other accounts and products; (c) the Investment Adviser’s ability to hire and retain qualified personnel to provide services to the Funds because of the reputation of the Goldman Sachs organization; (d) the Funds’ access, through the Investment Adviser, to certain firm-wide resources (e.g., proprietary risk management systems and databases), subject to certain restrictions; (e) the Funds’ ability to aggregate assets managed by certain sub-advisers with those of other clients of the Investment Adviser for purposes of applying breakpoints in a sub-advisory agreement; and (f) the Funds’ access to certain affiliated distribution channels.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Management Agreement, the Trustees gave weight to each of the factors described above, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of all of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the management fees paid by each of the Funds were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that the Management Agreement should be approved and continued with respect to each Fund until September 30, 2023.

Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements

Nature, Extent, and Quality of the Services Provided Under the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements and Performance

In evaluating the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees relied upon materials furnished and presentations made by the Investment Adviser and the Designated Sub-Advisers. In evaluating the nature, extent, and quality of services provided by each Designated Sub-Adviser, the Trustees considered information on the services provided to the Funds by their respective Designated Sub-Advisers, including information about each Designated Sub-Adviser’s (a) personnel and compensation structure; (b) track record in managing the Fund and, if applicable, other funds and/or accounts with investment strategies similar to those employed on behalf of the Funds; (c) policies and procedures in place to address potential conflicts of interest; and (d) compliance program and code of ethics. In this regard, they also considered assessments provided by the Investment Adviser of each Designated Sub-Adviser, the Designated Sub-Adviser’s investment strategies and personnel, and its compliance program. The Trustees also considered information regarding each Designated Sub-Adviser’s business continuity planning and remote operations capabilities. The Trustees also reviewed the operations and investment performance of each Designated Sub-Adviser’s respective sleeve of the applicable Fund since its inception, including a comparison of each Designated Sub-Adviser to relevant benchmark indices based on various metrics, including realized beta, excess return, alpha, and volatility.

105

GOLDMAN SACHS STRATEGIC MULTI-ASSET CLASS FUNDS

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)

Costs of Services Provided

The Trustees reviewed the terms of each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement, including the schedule of fees payable to the Designated Sub-Advisers. They considered any breakpoints in the sub-advisory fee rate payable under each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Trustees noted that the compensation paid to each Designated Sub-Adviser is paid by the Investment Adviser, not by the Funds. The Trustees considered that certain Designated Sub-Advisers had agreed to reduce their sub-advisory fee rate, which benefited shareholders of the applicable Funds in light of the existing management fee waiver arrangement. The Trustees reviewed the blended average of all sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser with respect to each Fund in light of the overall management fee paid by each Fund. They also considered the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to waive a portion of its management fee which is in excess of the weighted average of each Fund’s sub-advisory fees.

Conclusion

In connection with their consideration of the Designated Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees gave weight to various factors, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. After deliberation and consideration of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously concluded, in the exercise of their business judgment, that the sub-advisory fees paid by the Investment Adviser to each Designated Sub-Adviser were reasonable in light of the factors considered, and that each Designated Sub-Advisory Agreement should be approved and continued until September 30, 2023.

Item 4(e)(1) — Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Pre-Approval of Audit and Non-Audit Services Provided to the Funds of the Goldman Sachs Trust II. The Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the “Policy”) adopted by the Audit Committee of Goldman Sachs Trust II (“GST II”) sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services performed by an independent auditor for GST II may be pre-approved. Services may be pre-approved specifically by the Audit Committee as a whole or, in certain circumstances, by the Audit Committee Chairman or the person designated as the Audit Committee Financial Expert. In addition, subject to specified cost limitations, certain services may be pre-approved under the provisions of the Policy. The Policy provides that the Audit Committee will consider whether the services provided by an independent auditor are consistent with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules on auditor independence. The Policy provides for periodic review and pre-approval by the Audit Committee of the services that may be provided by the independent auditor.

De Minimis Waiver. The pre-approval requirements of the Policy may be waived with respect to the provision of non-audit services that are permissible for an independent auditor to perform, provided (1) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than five percent of the total amount of revenues subject to pre-approval that was paid to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (2) such services were not recognized by GST II 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 and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee to whom authority to grant such approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee, pursuant to the pre-approval provisions of the Policy.

Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services Provided to GST’s Investment Advisers. The Policy provides that, in addition to requiring pre-approval of audit and non-audit services provided to GST II, the Audit Committee will pre-approve those non-audit services provided to GST II’s investment advisers (and entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment advisers that provide ongoing services to GST II) where the engagement relates directly to the operations or financial reporting of GST II.

Item 4(e)(2) – 0% of the audit-related fees, tax fees and other fees listed in Table 1 were approved by GST II’s Audit Committee pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X. In addition, 0% of the non-audit services to the GST II’s service affiliates listed in Table 2 were approved by GST II’s Audit Committee pursuant to the “de minimis” exception of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

Item 4(f) – Not applicable.

Item 4(g) Aggregate Non-Audit Fees Disclosure

The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST II by PwC for the twelve months ended October 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021 were $64,000 and $33,496, respectively. The aggregate non-audit fees billed to GST II’s adviser and service affiliates by PwC for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were approximately $14.4 million and $14.5 million, respectively. The figures for these entities are not yet available for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

Item 4(h) — GST II’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services to GST II’s investment adviser and service affiliates that did not require pre-approval pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.
