Introduction
Morningstar Investment Management LLC launched an open end management investment company consisting of nine separate portfolios (each a Fund) that span the investment opportunity set1. Most of these Funds are designed to provide exposure to a broad asset class, such as U.S. equities, while our active management of each Fund’s asset allocation, allocation to active managers (known as “subadvisers”), and exposures to exchange traded funds (ETFs), or direct equities allow us to adjust sub-asset class allocations (such as small-cap value) based on our valuation views and those of the subadvisers.
Concept and Structure
We created the Morningstar Funds Trust using an open architecture, multimanager approach, hiring as active subadvisers both institutional managers and other managers whose mutual funds were previously used in Morningstar® Managed PortfoliosSM. Our analysts and portfolio managers continually use research, data, and analysis from Morningstar, Inc. and its affiliates to study the subadvisers and their investments closely and determine which fit best with our investment philosophy and the investment objectives of each Morningstar Fund2. We have recommended subadvisers we believed were independent, skilled investors in their respective asset classes to manage the Funds.
Consistent with our investment approach, our asset allocation process for the Morningstar Funds is based on fundamentals and driven by valuations. We look for asset classes and sub-asset classes around the globe that, in our view, offer fundamental value relative to price. Allocations within each Fund are in line with what we believe to reflect the best risk-adjusted opportunities.

Statement of Shareholder Rights
It is important to note that as a shareholder, you have certain rights and protections, chief among them an independent Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"), whose main role is to represent your interests.
The Trustees are responsible for the overall management of the Trust, including general supervision and review of the investment activities of each Fund. The Trustees, in turn, elect the officers of the Trust, who are responsible for administering the day-to-day operations of the Trust and each Fund. The “Independent Trustees” are Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") (e.g. not a Morningstar employee).
For more information about the Independent Trustees, please see the Fund Governance Matters section of this shareholder report.
You may contact the Trustees with comments or concerns about your investment in the Morningstar Funds:

Who is representing you as a shareholder of a Morningstar Fund?
The Morningstar Funds’ Board of Trustees represents shareholder interests. As of November 30,2022, the Morningstar Funds’ Board of Trustees is comprised of 4 trustees – 3 are “independent” trustees and 1 is an “interested” trustee as a result of being an employee of Morningstar. Additional information about the Board can be found in Morningstar Fund Trust's Statement of Additional Information (SAI), available at https://connect.rightprospectus.com/Morningstar. Information about the Trustees and the Board’s policies are available at https://www.morningstar.com/company/morningstar-funds-governance.
What is the diversity of the Board of Trustees?
The 3 Independent Trustees self-identify as follows:
• 2 as women, and 1 as a man; and
• 3 as white
The 1 Interested Trustee self-identifies as a white man.
In terms of leadership positions of the Board:
• Chair of the Board is a white woman;
• Chair of the Governance Committee is a white woman; and
• Chair of the Audit Committee is a white man.
How are Independent Trustees compensated?
The compensation adopted by the Board provides for an annual retainer for Independent Trustees of $141,000 per year. Effective January 1, 2023, the annual retainer for Independent Trustees will be $148,000 per year. The Chair of the Board (an Independent Trustee) is paid an additional retainer of $43,000, while the Chair of the Audit Committee (an Independent Trustee) is paid an additional $15,000 and the Chair of the Governance Committee (an Independent Trustee) is paid an additional $10,000.
All Independent Trustees are reimbursed for expenses connected with attending a Board meeting, most notably airfare and lodging expenses. Independent Trustees’ annual retainer and costs in connection with attending a Board meeting are allocated among each of the nine Morningstar Funds. The Trust has no pension or retirement plan for the Independent Trustees.

Fund Governance Matters (continued)
Are Independent Trustees required to invest in the Morningstar Funds?
Yes, the Independent Trustees have adopted a policy to invest, at a minimum, at least $141,000 in the Funds, which is equal to the base annual retainer to be paid to each Independent Trustee. There is a phase-in period for Independent Trustees who have joined the Board after 2018 that requires them to invest at least $47,000 a year (i.e., one-third of the base annual retainer) until they have invested $141,000 in the Funds. As of October 31, 2022, each Independent Trustee has satisfied this investment requirement. For more information on the Independent Trustees investments in Morningstar Funds, please see the Trustee Ownership of Portfolio Shares table within the Trustees and Executive Officers section of the Statement of Additional Information available at https://connect.rightprospectus.com/Morningstar.

Dear Shareholders:
We are delighted to present you with the Morningstar Funds Trust semi-annual report. This report features data for the previous six months ending October 31, 2022.
Morningstar Investment Management’s mission is to empower investor success. That commitment serves as the foundation for our offerings, a series of nine open-end multimanager mutual funds. We aim to provide our investment team with greater control of asset allocation, operating in a more cost-effective way, while maintaining the same open-architecture access.
We created the Morningstar Funds Trust for use within the Morningstar® Managed PortfoliosSM lineup of products. Our multi-asset portfolios cover a mix of asset classes in a single portfolio, ideal as a core investment. From our Asset Allocation Series designed to diversify core solutions able to match an investor’s risk tolerance, to our Outcome-Based Series built with an investor’s goal in mind, each portfolio targets a consistent approach to help reach their financial goals. Overall, the funds provide access to investment strategies designed to help investors, drawing on our core capabilities in asset allocation, investment selection, and portfolio construction.
At Morningstar Investment Management LLC, we hold ourselves to the same high standards set by our parent company, Morningstar, Inc., which has been a leader in the business of fund manager research for over 35 years. Those standards inform the composition of the Funds’ Board of Trustees, reporting transparency, and more. We hope that as you learn1 about how we operate, you will agree that the Morningstar Funds Trust offers mutual funds the Morningstar way by supporting financial advisors, institutions, and the investors they serve with a fundamentally based investment approach.
We greatly appreciate your trust in these funds and in Morningstar Investment Management—and for that, we thank you. We look forward to continuing to empower investor success together.

(a)Expense ratios are as of the most recent Prospectus dated August 31, 2022. Net expense ratio reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses whereas the gross expense ratio does not. Morningstar Investment Management LLC (“Morningstar” or “adviser” or “we”) has contractually agreed, through at least August 31, 2023, to waive all or a portion of its advisory fees and, if necessary, to assume certain other expenses (to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) to ensure that the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, trading costs, acquired fund fees and expenses (AFFE), short sale dividend and interest expenses, litigation expenses, and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.85% (the Base Expense Limitation Agreement). It is important to note that as a result of the exclusion of the above-listed expenses from the cap, the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses may in certain circumstances be higher than 0.85%. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the adviser’s intent to partially limit AFFE such that when AFFE is included in the expense ratio, the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding the above-listed expenses other than AFFE) do not exceed the amount set forth in the Fund’s original prospectus dated July 11, 2018, as revised August 15, 2018. Accordingly, in addition to the Base Expense Limitation Agreement, Morningstar has contractually agreed, through at least August 31, 2023, to waive all or a portion of its advisory fees and, if necessary, to assume certain other expenses (to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) to ensure that the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, trading costs, short sale dividend and interest expenses, litigation expenses, and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.85% (the Supplemental Expense Limitation Agreement). Prior to August 31, 2023, the Base Expense Limitation Agreement and Supplemental Expense Limitation Agreement may be terminated only upon mutual agreement between the Trust (which would require the approval of the Trust’s board of trustees) and the adviser, or automatically upon the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Trust and the adviser.

Fund Information (continued)
Morningstar U.S. Equity Fund
Investment Objective
Morningstar U.S. Equity Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.
Investment Strategies
In seeking long-term capital appreciation, the Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of U.S.-based companies, and may invest up to 100% of its assets in such securities. The Fund seeks to provide broad U.S. equity exposure across market capitalizations and investment styles and has the flexibility to invest in large-cap, mid-cap, and small-cap common stocks across the growth and value style spectrum. The Fund may also invest in real estate investment trusts (REITs), master limited partnerships and non-U.S. companies. To meet its objective, the Fund may invest in investment companies such as mutual funds and ETFs, which could represent a significant percentage of assets. The Fund may invest in derivatives, including futures and forward foreign currency contracts, for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies.
Multimanager Approach—The Fund uses a multimanager approach, meaning the adviser may allocate assets to one or more subadvisers, in addition to open and closed-end investment companies, ETFs, and individual securities (collectively “Allocation Decisions”). Each subadviser acts independently from the others and uses its own investment style and process to select securities, within the constraints of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and restrictions. Morningstar is responsible for selecting the investment strategies and making Allocation Decisions with the goal of maximizing return with a prudent level of risk for the strategy. Subject to the oversight of the board of trustees, Morningstar may change subadvisers and sell holdings at any time.

If none of these three rating agencies has assigned a rating, the Fund will assign a rating of not rated. The ratings, expressed in S&P Global’s nomenclature, range from AAA (extremely strong capacity to meet its financial commitment) to D (in default). Short-term ratings, expressed in S& P Global’s nomenclature, range from A1 to D (in default). The ratings represent the rating agencies’ opinions of the quality of the securities they rate. Ratings are relative and subjective and are not absolute standards of quality.

Fund Information (continued)
Morningstar Global Income Fund
Investment Objective
Morningstar Global Income Fund seeks current income and long-term capital appreciation.
Investment Strategies
In seeking current income and long-term capital appreciation, the Fund has significant flexibility and invests across asset classes and geographies, according to the adviser’s assessment of their valuations, fundamental characteristics, and income levels. The Fund invests in investment companies such as open, closed-end or ETFs which could represent a significant percentage of the Fund’s assets. The Fund generally expects to invest at least 20% (or, if market conditions are unfavorable, at least 10%) of its assets in securities of issuers domiciled outside of the United States and may invest up to 100% of its assets in such securities.
The Fund invests in income-generating equity securities, which may include common stocks, preferred stocks, real estate investment trusts (REITs), and master limited partnerships (MLPs). The Fund may invest in companies of any size from any country, including emerging markets.
The Fund also invests in fixed-income securities of varying maturity, duration, and quality. These may include U.S. and non-U.S. corporate debt securities, U.S. and non-U.S. government debt securities, emerging market debt securities, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, convertible securities and floating-rate notes. The Fund may invest up to 60% of its assets in fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (commonly known as junk bonds) or, if unrated, are determined by the Fund's subadviser(s) to be of comparable quality.
The Fund may also invest in derivatives, including options, futures, swaps, and forward foreign currency contracts, for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies.
The nature of the strategies in this Fund is to engage in active and frequent trading of its portfolio securities which may result in higher portfolio turnover. Turnover is mainly driven by a few strategies employed to help manage duration and curve risk.
Multimanager Approach—The Fund uses a multimanager approach, meaning the adviser may allocate assets to one or more subadvisers, in addition to open and closed-end investment companies, ETFs, and individual securities (collectively “Allocation Decisions”). Each subadviser acts independently from the others and uses its own investment style and process to select securities, within the constraints of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and restrictions. Morningstar is responsible for selecting the investment strategies and Allocation Decisions, with the goal of maximizing return with a prudent level of risk for the strategy. Subject to the oversight of the board of trustees, Morningstar may change subadvisers and sell holdings at any time.

(a) Expense ratios are as of the most recent Prospectus dated August 31, 2022. Net expense ratio reflects fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses whereas the gross expense ratio does not. Morningstar Investment Management LLC (“Morningstar” or “adviser” or “we”) has contractually agreed, through at least August 31, 2023, to waive all or a portion of its advisory fees and, if necessary, to assume certain other expenses (to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) to ensure that the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, trading costs, acquired fund fees and expenses (AFFE),

short sale dividend and interest expenses, litigation expenses, and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.53% (the Base Expense Limitation Agreement). It is important to note that as a result of the exclusion of the above-listed expenses from the cap, the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses may in certain circumstances be higher than 0.53%, including as a result of AFFE borne by the Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the adviser’s intent to partially limit AFFE such that when AFFE is included in the expense ratio, the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding the above-listed expenses other than AFFE) do not exceed the amount set forth in the Fund’s original prospectus dated July 11, 2018, as revised August 15, 2018. Accordingly, in addition to the Base Expense Limitation Agreement, Morningstar has contractually agreed, through at least August 31, 2023, to waive all or a portion of its advisory fees and, if necessary, to assume certain other expenses (to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) to ensure that the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, trading costs, short sale dividend and interest expenses, litigation expenses, and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.54% (the Supplemental Expense Limitation Agreement). Prior to August 31, 2023, the Base Expense Limitation Agreement and Supplemental Expense Limitation Agreement may be terminated only upon mutual agreement between the Trust (which would require the approval of the Trust’s board of trustees) and the adviser, or automatically upon the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Trust and the adviser.
(b) Effective duration is a measure of a Fund's interest-rate sensitivity—the longer a Fund's duration, the more sensitive the Fund is to shifts in interest rates. Duration is determined by a formula that includes coupon rates and bond maturities. Small coupons tend to increase duration, while shorter maturities and higher coupons shorten duration.
(c) Percentages shown are based on Net Assets.
(d) Excludes Investment Companies and Other.
(e) Non-USD currency exposure for the Fund reflects the value of the portfolio’s non-U.S. dollar denominated investments, as well as the impact of currency derivatives.
(f) The Fund’s portfolio holdings are subject to change without notice. The mention of specific securities is not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any particular security and is not indicative of current or future trading activity.
(g) Credit quality ratings are based on the conservative average of Moody’s, S&P Global and Fitch ratings. If ratings from all three rating agencies disagree, the model assigns the middle rating to the security. If two of the three agree, the model assigns the rating from those two to the security. If none of these three rating agencies has assigned a rating, the Fund will assign a rating of not rated. The ratings, expressed in S&P Global’s nomenclature, range from AAA (extremely strong capacity to meet its financial commitment) to D (in default). Short-term ratings, expressed in S& P Global’s nomenclature, range from A‐1 to D (in default). The ratings represent the rating agencies’ opinions of the quality of the securities they rate. Ratings are relative and subjective and are not absolute standards of quality.

Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund
Investment Objective
Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund seeks to maximize total return while also generating income and preserving capital.
Investment Strategies
In seeking to maximize total return while also generating income and preserving capital, the Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its assets in debt securities (commonly referred to as “bonds”) of varying maturity, duration, and quality. To meet its objective, the Fund may invest in investment companies such as mutual funds and ETFs, which could represent a significant percentage of assets.
The Fund invests primarily in investment-grade fixed-income securities. These may include U.S. and non-U.S. investment-grade corporate debt securities, U.S. government debt securities, including Treasury Inflation Protected Bond Securities and zero-coupon securities, non-U.S. government debt securities, emerging-market debt securities, and mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its assets in fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (commonly known as junk bonds), or if unrated, are determined by the Fund’s subadviser(s) to be of comparable quality.
In addition, the Fund may invest up to 15% of its assets in collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), of which 10% (as a percentage of the Fund’s assets) may be in collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). CDOs are types of asset-backed securities. CLOs are ordinarily issued by a trust or other special purpose entity and are typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and non-U.S. senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans, held by such issuer.
The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in securities denominated in foreign currencies. The Fund may also invest in securities acquired in a private placement, such as Rule 144A securities, as well as derivatives, including options, futures, swaps, and forward foreign currency contracts, for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies. The Fund may also enter into reverse repurchase agreements and dollar rolls. The Fund may also invest in short-term, high-quality fixed-income securities, cash or cash equivalents, including money market funds.
The nature of the strategies in this Fund is to engage in active and frequent trading of its portfolio securities which may result in higher portfolio turnover. Turnover is mainly driven by a few strategies employed to help manage duration and curve risk.
Multimanager Approach—The Fund uses a multimanager approach, meaning the adviser may allocate assets to one or more subadvisers, in addition to open and closed-end investment companies, ETFs, and individual securities (collectively “Allocation Decisions”).

Investment Objective
Morningstar Municipal Bond Fund seeks income exempt from federal income taxes as well as capital preservation.
Investment Strategies
In seeking income exempt from federal income taxes consistent with the preservation of capital, the Fund will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in securities of municipal issuers within the United States and its territories, the income of which is exempt from U.S. taxation. To meet its objective, the Fund may invest in investment companies such as mutual funds and ETFs, which could represent a significant percentage of assets.
The Fund intends to invest primarily in investment-grade municipal securities, but may invest up to 35% of assets in high-yield fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (commonly known as junk bonds) or, if unrated, are determined by the Fund’s subadviser(s) to be of comparable quality. The Fund may also invest in derivatives, including options, futures, swaps, and inverse floating-rate debt instruments (inverse floaters), for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies.

Fund Information (continued)
Morningstar Defensive Bond Fund
Investment Objective
Morningstar Defensive Bond Fund seeks capital preservation.
Investment Strategies
In seeking capital preservation, the Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of debt securities (commonly referred to as “bonds”) of varying maturity, duration, and quality. Under normal conditions, the Fund intends to pursue a defensive strategy of limiting its interest-rate sensitivity by maintaining a portfolio duration of three years or less. The Fund may also invest in investment companies such as mutual funds and ETFs, which could represent a significant percentage of assets.
The Fund invests primarily in short- and intermediate-term investment-grade fixed-income securities. These may include U.S. and non-U.S. investment-grade corporate debt securities, U.S. and non-U.S. government debt securities, and mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. In most market environments, the Fund will not invest more than 20% of assets in fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (commonly known as junk bonds), or if unrated, are determined by the Fund’s subadviser(s) to be of comparable quality.
In addition, the Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), including collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). CDOs are types of asset-backed securities. CLOs are ordinarily issued by a trust or other special purpose entity and are typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and non-U.S. senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans, held by such issuer.
Multimanager Approach—The Fund uses a multimanager approach, meaning the adviser may allocate assets to one or more subadvisers, in addition to open and closed-end investment companies, ETFs, and individual securities (collectively “Allocation Decisions”). Each subadviser acts independently from the others and uses its own investment style and process to select securities, within the constraints of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and restrictions. Morningstar is responsible for selecting the investment strategies and Allocation Decisions, with the goal of maximizing return with a prudent level of risk for the strategy. Subject to the oversight of the board of trustees, Morningstar may change subadvisers and sell holdings at any time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the adviser’s intent to partially limit AFFE such that when AFFE is included in the expense ratio, the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding the above-listed expenses other than AFFE) do not exceed the amount set forth in the Fund’s original prospectus dated July 11, 2018, as revised August 15, 2018. Accordingly, in addition to the Base Expense Limitation Agreement, Morningstar has contractually agreed, through at least August 31, 2023, to waive all or a portion of its advisory fees and, if necessary, to assume certain other expenses (to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) to ensure that the Fund’s Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, trading costs, short sale dividend and interest expenses, litigation expenses, and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.80% (the Supplemental Expense Limitation Agreement). Prior to August 31, 2023, the Base Expense Limitation Agreement and Supplemental Expense Limitation Agreement may be terminated only upon mutual agreement between the Trust (which would require the approval of the Trust’s board of trustees) and the adviser, or automatically upon the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Trust and the adviser.
(b) Effective duration is a measure of a Fund's interest-rate sensitivity—the longer a Fund's duration, the more sensitive the Fund is to shifts in interest rates. Duration is determined by a formula that includes coupon rates and bond maturities. Small coupons tend to increase duration, while shorter maturities and higher coupons shorten duration.
(c) Percentages shown are based on Net Assets.
(d) Excludes Common Stocks, Convertible Preferred Stocks and Other.
(e) Non-USD currency exposure for the Fund reflects the value of the portfolio’s non-U.S. dollar denominated investments, as well as the impact of currency derivatives.
(f) The Fund’s portfolio holdings are subject to change without notice. The mention of specific securities is not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any particular security and is not indicative of current or future trading activity.
(g) Credit quality ratings are based on the conservative average of Moody’s, S&P Global and Fitch ratings. If ratings from all three rating agencies disagree, the model assigns the middle rating to the security. If two of the three agree, the model assigns the rating from those two to the security. If none of these three rating agencies has assigned a rating, the Fund will assign a rating of not rated. The ratings, expressed in S&P Global’s nomenclature, range from AAA (extremely strong capacity to meet its financial commitment) to D (in default). Short-term ratings, expressed in S& P Global’s nomenclature, range from A‐1 to D (in default). The ratings represent the rating agencies’ opinions of the quality of the securities they rate. Ratings are relative and subjective and are not absolute standards of quality.

Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund
Investment Objective
Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund seeks total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation.
Investment Strategies
In seeking total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation, the Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its assets in debt securities (commonly referred to as “bonds”) of varying maturity, duration, and quality across various sectors of the fixed-income market. These may include U.S. and non- U.S. corporate debt securities, U.S. and non-U.S. government debt securities, emerging-market debt securities, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, municipal securities, and floating-rate notes.
The Fund invests in investment grade and below investment grade fixed-income securities. The Fund may invest without limit in fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (commonly known as junk bonds), or if unrated, are determined by the Fund’s subadviser(s) to be of comparable quality. The Fund may invest without limit in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers.
The Fund may invest in securities acquired in a private placement, such as Rule 144A securities, as well as derivatives, including options, futures, swaps, forward foreign currency contracts and currency options, for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies. Due to the opportunistic nature of its strategy, the Fund may also invest up to 20% of its assets in equity securities, including common stocks and convertible securities.
Multimanager Approach—The Fund uses a multimanager approach, meaning the adviser may allocate assets to one or more subadvisers, in addition to open and closed-end investment companies, ETFs, and individual securities (collectively “Allocation Decisions”). Each subadviser acts independently from the others and uses its own investment style and process to select securities, within the constraints of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and restrictions. Morningstar is responsible for selecting the investment strategies and Allocation Decisions, with the goal of maximizing return with a prudent level of risk for the strategy. Subject to the oversight of the board of trustees, Morningstar may change subadvisers and sell holdings at any time.

Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund
Investment Objective
Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation over a full market cycle.
Investment Strategies
In seeking long-term capital appreciation over a full market cycle, the Fund has significant flexibility and invests predominantly in equities across asset classes and geographies according to the portfolio management team’s assessment of their valuations and fundamental characteristics. The Fund will normally invest at least 80% of its assets in equity securities. The Fund invests in investment companies such as mutual funds and ETFs, which could represent a significant percentage of assets.
The Fund invests in equity securities, which may include common stocks and real estate investment trusts (REITs). The Fund may invest in companies of any size from any country, including emerging markets. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest significantly (e.g., at least 40% of its assets, unless market conditions are not deemed favorable, in which case the Fund would invest at least 30% of its assets) in companies organized or located in multiple countries outside the United States or doing a substantial amount of business in multiple countries outside the United States.
To meet its objective, the Fund may also invest up to 20% of its assets in fixed-income securities of varying maturity, duration, and quality. These may include U.S. and non-U.S. corporate debt securities, U.S. government debt securities, including Treasury Inflation Protected Bond Securities and zero-coupon securities, non-U.S. government debt securities, emerging-market debt securities, and mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in fixed-income securities that are rated below investment grade (commonly known as junk bonds) or, if unrated, are determined by the Fund’s subadviser(s) to be of comparable quality.
The Fund may also invest in derivatives, including options, futures, swaps, and forward foreign currency contracts, for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies.

Morningstar Alternatives Fund
Investment Objective
Morningstar Alternatives Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation and low sensitivity to traditional U.S. asset classes.
Investment Strategies
In seeking long-term capital appreciation and low sensitivity to traditional U.S. asset classes, the Fund allocates assets to strategies that provide alternative sources of return including (i) long/short macro strategies; (ii) long/short alpha strategies; (iii) merger arbitrage strategy; and (iv) convertible arbitrage strategy. The Fund will normally invest in both U.S. and non-U.S. securities, including securities of companies located in emerging markets. The Fund may invest in non-U.S. dollar denominated investments, including investments denominated in European and Asian currencies and in other non-U.S. and emerging market currencies. The Fund may also seek returns through core allocation across fixed income and equity markets.
In particular, the Fund has the latitude to invest in the following alternative strategies:
Long-Short Equity—Combines long equity positions with short equity positions (selling borrowed securities). Since the strategy is both long and short, total net exposure is typically less than 100%.
Convertible Arbitrage—Includes the purchase of convertible securities and the sale of the underlying common stock. These securities tend to be convertible bonds or convertible preferred stocks that may be converted into the stock of the same company.
Merger Arbitrage—Seeks to profit from the successful completion of corporate re-organizations. The process typically involves purchasing shares of an announced acquisition target company at a discount to its expected value upon completion of the acquisition. Hedging strategies may be used to reduce market exposure and volatility.
Credit Arbitrage—Seeks to exploit the mispricing of different classes of securities that are usually of the same company, and may include investments in investment-grade and/or non-investment-grade corporate debt (otherwise known as junk bonds), credit derivatives, loans, equities, credit index securities, and private debt.
Global Macro—Establishes long (number of contracts bought exceeds number sold) with a short (number of contracts sold exceeds number bought) exposures around the globe to take advantage of what the subadvisers believe to be attractive opportunities. This strategy may include investments in fixed-income and equity securities and a wide variety of derivative instruments. Such investments will likely have significant exposure to foreign investments and may be concentrated in a geographic region or country.
Hedged Equity—Seeks to limit investment loss by creating a transaction that offsets an existing position in a contract that provides the right to buy or sell shares of a security at a specific price for a certain time. Specifically, this strategy attempts to reduce the systematic risk created by factors such as exposures to sectors, market-cap ranges, investment styles, currencies, and/or countries; the strategy strives to achieve this by matching short positions within each area against long positions. This strategy may be managed as beta-neutral, dollar-neutral, or sector-neutral in order to achieve low beta exposures to certain market indexes.

Fund Information (continued)
Morningstar Alternatives Fund
Market Neutral—Attempts to significantly reduce the systematic risk created by factors such as exposures to sectors, market-cap ranges, investment styles, currencies, and/or countries. This strategy seeks to achieve this by matching short positions within each area against long positions, and the strategy may be managed as beta-neutral, dollar-neutral, or sector-neutral. In attempting to significantly reduce systematic risk, issue selection may be emphasized, with profits dependent on the ability to sell short and buy long the chosen securities.
Nontraditional Bond—Pursues strategies that diverge in one or more ways from conventional practice in the broader bond-fund universe. In pursuing this strategy, the Fund may seek to avoid losses and produce returns uncorrelated with the overall bond market and may employ a variety of methods to achieve those aims, including investing tactically across a wide swath of individual sectors, including high-yield and foreign debt.
Debt Securities—Investment in debt securities may include U.S. Government and agency securities, foreign government and supranational debt securities, corporate bonds, mortgage-related securities and asset-backed securities, mortgage to-be-announced (“TBA”) securities, emerging market debt securities, preferred securities, structured products, credit-linked notes, mezzanine securities, senior secured floating rate and fixed rate loans or debt, second lien or other subordinated or unsecured floating rate and fixed rate loans or debt, convertible debt securities, and derivatives with similar economic characteristics. These debt securities may be of any credit quality, which may include investment grade securities and high yield securities, including unrated securities (commonly called “junk bonds”). The Fund may invest in fixed, variable and floating rate instruments, including participations and assignments, of any duration or maturity.
Equity Securities—Investment in equity securities may include common stock, preferred stock, securities convertible into common stock, including contingent convertible bonds which are securities convertible into equity if a pre-specified trigger event occurs, and non-convertible preferred stock.
Derivatives—Exposure to equity securities may be done through derivatives which at times may be significant. Types of derivatives include, but are not limited to, swaps, (including total return some of which may be referred to as contracts for difference), credit default, index and interest rate swaps; options; forward contracts; futures; options on futures and swaps; and foreign exchange transactions, for hedging purposes, as well as to enhance returns. Use of derivatives may be to maintain a portion of its portfolio long and short positions. Investments in indexed and inverse securities may also be made to provide a potential return based on a particular index of value or interest rates. This strategy may also include investments in repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements and dollar rolls.
Short Sales—Short sales may be used for hedging purposes or to enhance total return. Short sales “against the box” may also be used. In this type of short sale, at the time of the sale, the Fund owns or has the immediate and unconditional right to acquire the identical security at no additional cost.
Currency—The Fund may invest in non-U.S. dollar denominated investments, including investments denominated in European and Asian currencies and in other non-U.S. and emerging market currencies. As a result, the Fund may have significant exposure to foreign currencies and investments in non-U.S. dollar-based assets may be made on a currency hedged or unhedged basis.

Morningstar Alternatives Fund
To meet its objective, the Fund may invest in investment companies such as mutual funds and ETFs, which could represent a significant percentage of assets.
Multimanager Approach—The Fund uses a multimanager approach, meaning the adviser may allocate assets to one or more subadvisers, in addition to open and closed-end investment companies, ETFs, and individual securities (collectively “Allocation Decisions”). Each subadviser acts independently from the others and uses its own investment style and process to select securities, within the constraints of the Fund’s investment objective, strategies, and restrictions. Morningstar is responsible for selecting the investment strategies and Allocation Decisions, with the goal of maximizing return with a prudent level of risk for the strategy. Subject to the oversight of the board of trustees, Morningstar may change subadvisers and sell holdings at any time.
The nature of the strategies in this Fund is to engage in active and frequent trading of its portfolio securities which may result in higher portfolio turnover. Turnover is mainly driven by a few strategies employed to help manage duration and curve risk.

1. Organization
Morningstar Funds Trust (the "Trust") was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on March 1, 2017. The Trust is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as an open end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Trust has authorized capital of unlimited shares of beneficial interest at no par value, which may be issued in one or more series of the Trust.
The Trust is currently authorized to offer shares in nine separate series which commenced operations on November 2, 2018 (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"):
Morningstar U.S. Equity Fund | Morningstar Defensive Bond Fund |
Morningstar International Equity Fund | Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund |
Morningstar Global Income Fund | Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund |
Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund | Morningstar Alternatives Fund |
Morningstar Municipal Bond Fund | |
Each Fund represents a distinct portfolio with its own investment objectives and is treated as a separate legal entity. Each Fund is classified and operates as a diversified fund under the 1940 Act. Morningstar Investment Management LLC (“MIM” or “Adviser”) serves as the investment adviser of each Fund.
The investment objective of each Fund is as follows:
Fund | Investment Objective |
Morningstar U.S. Equity Fund | Long-term capital appreciation |
Morningstar International Equity Fund | Long-term capital appreciation |
Morningstar Global Income Fund | Current income and long-term capital appreciation |
Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund | Total return maximization, income generation and capital preservation |
Morningstar Municipal Bond Fund | Income exempt from federal income taxes as well as capital preservation |
Morningstar Defensive Bond Fund | Capital preservation |
Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund | Total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation |
Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund | Long-term capital appreciation over a full market cycle |
Morningstar Alternatives Fund | Long-term capital appreciation and low sensitivity to traditional U.S. asset classes |
On March 9, 2022, after consideration and evaluation of various factors and information, the Board of Trustees approved to change the name of the Morningstar Unconstrained Allocation Fund to the Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund. The Board of Trustees also approved an adoption of a non-fundamental policy to invest at least 80% of the Fund's assets in equity securities. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest significantly (e.g., at least 40% of its assets, unless market conditions are not deemed favorable, in which case the Fund would invest at least 30% of its assets) in companies organized or located in multiple countries outside the United States or doing a substantial amount of business in multiple countries outside the United States. The name change and the adoption of the non-fundamental policy change became effective May 2, 2022.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of the financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").
The Trust follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services-Investment Companies.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.
Valuation of Investments: All securities and other investments are valued at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 4.
Cash and Foreign Currencies: Cash comprises U.S. Dollar and foreign currency deposits held at a bank(s) or custodian bank(s) which may exceed insured limits.
Due to/from Brokers: Due to/from brokers represents cash balances and securities on deposit with, or cash balances owed to, the Funds’ prime brokers and counterparties. The Funds are subject to credit risk should the prime brokers and counterparties be unable to meet their obligations to the Funds.
| Morningstar Global Income Fund | Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund | Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund | Morningstar Alternatives Fund |
Assets | | | | |
Cash collateral for derivatives | $ 595,379 | $11,544,081 | $650,013 | $10,281,949 |
Deposits with broker for futures contracts | 888,690 | 3,850,386 | 71,035 | 1,091,671 |
Due from broker | $1,484,069 | $15,394,467 | $721,048 | $11,373,620 |
| | | | |
Liabilities | | | | |
Cash collateral for derivatives | $ 341,931 | $10,232,884 | $614,755 | $ 1,844,327 |
Deposits with broker for futures contracts | — | 86,890 | — | 5,000 |
Due to broker | $ 341,931 | $10,319,774 | $614,755 | $ 1,849,327 |
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. Dollars. The Funds’ assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. Dollars at the prevailing exchange rate at the valuation date. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. Dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of the transaction. The Funds’ income earned and expense incurred in foreign denominated currencies are translated into U.S. Dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the date of such activity.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in the foreign exchange rates on investments and derivatives from the fluctuations that result from changes in the market prices of investments and derivatives held or sold during the period. Accordingly, such foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the reported net realized gain (loss) from transactions in investment securities and derivatives and net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment securities and derivatives on the Statements of Operations.
Realized gains (losses) from settlement of foreign currency and foreign currency transactions reported on the Statements of Operations arise from the disposition of foreign currency and a change between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books on the transaction date and the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Changes in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency and foreign currency translations reported on the Statements of Operations arise from changes (due to the changes in the exchange rate) in the value of foreign currency and assets and liabilities (other than investments) denominated in foreign currencies, which are held at period end.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Investment transactions are accounted as of trade date. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are recorded on a specifically identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums using the effective yield method. In the case of the defaulted debt obligation, the accrual of interest income is halted when management becomes aware that the interest income is not collectible. Dividend income (expense) net of foreign taxes withheld, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date or when a Fund first learns of the ex-date dividend notification. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Funds' understanding of the applicable country's tax rules and rates. Other non-cash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the assets received.
Expenses: Each Fund is charged for those expenses that are directly attributable to that Fund. Expenses incurred which do not specifically relate to an individual Fund generally are allocated among all Funds in the Trust in proportion to each Fund’s relative average net assets.
Federal Income Taxes: Each Fund’s policy is to comply with all sections of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"), necessary to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and capital gains to shareholders as required. No provision for federal income or excise taxes is thus required. Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes.
The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries on securities sold or held in certain foreign jurisdictions. Such taxes are generally based on income and/or capital gains earned or repatriated. The Funds accrue such taxes when the related income is earned. Gains realized by the Funds on the sale of securities in certain countries are subject to non-U.S. taxes. The Funds record a liability based on unrealized gains to provide for potential non-U.S. taxes payable upon the sale of these securities. As of October 31, 2022, the International Equity Fund and the Global Income Fund had non-U.S. taxes accrued in the amount of $142,997 and $24,963 respectively, which are included as payable for deferred capital gains tax in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Management evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds' tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds are required to analyze all open tax years. Open tax years are those years that are open for examination by the relevant income taxing authority. The Funds have concluded that there is no tax liability/benefit resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken. The Funds are not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will materially change in the next twelve months. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. The returns of the Funds for the prior two fiscal years as well as current year are open for examination. As of October 31, 2022, the Funds had no examinations in progress.
Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions of net investment income, if any, are declared and paid as follows:
Fund | Frequency |
Morningstar U.S. Equity Fund | Annually |
Morningstar International Equity Fund | Annually |
Morningstar Global Income Fund | Monthly |
Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund | Monthly |
Morningstar Municipal Bond Fund | Monthly |
Morningstar Defensive Bond Fund | Monthly |
Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund | Monthly |
Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund | Annually |
Morningstar Alternatives Fund | Annually |
Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid at least annually. Income and capital gain distributions will be determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes. These differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes. As a result, income dividends and capital gain distributions declared during a fiscal period may differ significantly from the net investment income (loss) and realized gain (loss) reported on the Funds’ financial statements presented under U.S. GAAP.
Indemnifications: Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business the Trust enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties.
3. Investment Types
The Funds may utilize the following types of investments described below to execute their investment strategy to the extent permitted by the Funds' investment policies.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Borrowed Bond Agreements: Repurchase agreements may be referred to as borrowed bond agreements when entered into in connection with short sales of bonds. In a borrowed bond agreement, a Fund borrows a bond from a counterparty in exchange for cash collateral. The agreement contains a commitment that the security and the cash will be returned to the counterparty and a Fund at a mutually agreed upon date. Certain agreements have no stated maturity and can be terminated by either party at any time. Earnings on cash collateral and compensation to the lender of the bond are based on agreed upon rates between a Fund and the counterparty. The value of the underlying cash collateral approximates the market value and accrued interest of the borrowed bond. To the extent that a borrowed bond transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the cash collateral in the possession of the counterparty is monitored on a daily basis to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. As the market value of the borrowed bond changes, the cash collateral is periodically increased or decreased with a frequency and in amounts prescribed in the borrowed bond agreement. A Fund may also experience delays in gaining access to the collateral.
Collateralized Bond Obligations (CBOs), Collateralized Loan Obligations (CLOs), and Other Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDOs): A CBO is a trust which is often backed by a pool of high risk, below investment grade fixed-income securities, such as high-yield bonds, privately issued mortgage-related securities, commercial mortgage-related securities, trust preferred securities, or emerging-market debt. A CLO is a trust typically backed by a pool of loans, which may include senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be below investment grade. Other CDOs are trusts backed by other types of assets. The assets backing a CBO, CLO, or CDO trust may be referred to as “the collateral.” CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs may charge management fees and administrative expenses. The cash flows from the trust are split into two or more portions, called tranches, varying in risk and yield. Senior tranches can often be rated investment grade. CBO, CLO or other CDO tranches can experience substantial losses due to defaults, deterioration of protecting tranches, market participants’ perception of credit risk, as well as aversion to these securities generally. The risks of an investment in a CBO, CLO or other CDO often depend on the collateral securities and the particular tranche in which a Fund invests. These securities are often privately offered and not registered under securities laws. In addition to the normal risks associated with fixed-income securities (e.g., interest-rate risk and credit risk), CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs carry additional risks including the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments, the possibility that the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default, the risk that a Fund may invest in CBOs, CLOs or other CDOs that are subordinate to other tranches, as well as risks related to the complexity of the security and its structure.
Federal, state and local government officials and representatives as well as certain private parties have proposed actions to assist homeowners who own or occupy property subject to mortgages. Certain of those proposals involve actions that would affect the mortgages that underlie or relate to certain mortgage-related securities, including securities or other instruments which a Fund may hold or in which they may invest. Some of those proposals include, among other things, lowering or forgiving principal balances; forbearing, lowering or eliminating interest payments; or utilizing eminent domain powers to seize mortgages, potentially for below market compensation. The prospective or actual implementation of one or more of these proposals may significantly and adversely affect the value and liquidity of securities held by a Fund and could cause the Fund’s net asset value to decline, potentially significantly. Uncertainty remains in the market concerning the resolution of these issues; the range of proposals and the potential implications of any implemented solution is impossible to predict.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Convertible Securities and Warrants: Convertible securities are securities (such as debt securities or preferred stock) that may be converted into or exchanged for a specified amount of common stock of the same or different issuer within a particular period of time at a specified price or formula. Convertible securities also include corporate bonds, notes, and preferred stock. A convertible security entitles the holder to receive interest paid or accrued on debt or dividends paid on preferred stock until the convertible stock matures or is redeemed, converted or exchanged. While no investment is without some risk, investments in convertible securities generally entail less risk than an issuer’s common stock. However, any reduction in risk depends in large measure upon the degree to which the convertible security sells above its value as a fixed-income security. In addition to the general risks associated with equity securities discussed above, the market value of convertible securities is also affected by prevailing interest rates, the credit quality of the issuer, and any call provisions. While convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than nonconvertible debt securities of similar quality, they do enable the investor to benefit from increases in the market price of the underlying common stock.
Warrants and similar rights are instruments that give a Fund the right to purchase certain securities from an issuer at a specific price (the strike price) for a limited period of time. The strike price of warrants typically is much lower than the current market price of the underlying securities, yet they are subject to similar price fluctuations. As a result, warrants may be more volatile investments than the underlying securities and may offer greater potential for capital appreciation as well as capital loss. Warrants do not entitle a holder to dividends or voting rights with respect to the underlying securities and do not represent any rights in the assets of the issuing company. Also, the value of the warrant does not necessarily change with the value of the underlying securities and a warrant ceases to have value if it is not exercised before the expiration date. These factors can make warrants more speculative than other types of investments. Certain warrants may permit, without legal obligation, net settlement for stock or cash. The Funds' have no obligation to exercise the warrant and buy the stock.
Equity-Linked Investments: Equity-linked investments are subject to the same risks as direct investments in securities of the underlying investment. If the underlying investment decreases in value, the value of the equity-linked investment will decrease; however, the performance of such investments may not correlate exactly to the performance of the underlying investment that they seek to replicate. Equity-linked investments are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the issuer of such investment — which is different from the issuer of the underlying investment — may be unwilling or unable to fulfill its obligations. There is no guarantee that a liquid market will exist or that the counterparty or issuer of such investments will be willing to repurchase them when a Fund wishes to sell them.
Forward Commitments and Dollar Rolls: A Fund may enter into contracts to purchase mortgage securities for a fixed price at a future date beyond customary settlement time (forward commitments). In the case of to-be-announced (TBA) mortgage purchase commitments, the unit price and the estimated principal amount are established when a Fund enters into a contract, with the actual principal amount being within a specified range of the estimate. TBA mortgages shall not exceed 20% of a Fund’s net assets. Forward commitments may be considered securities in themselves and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines before the settlement date, which is in addition to the risk of decline in the value of a Fund’s other assets. Where such purchases are made through dealers, a Fund relies on the dealer to consummate the sale. The dealer’s failure to do so may result in the loss to a Fund of an advantageous yield or price. Although a Fund
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
will generally enter into forward commitments with the intention of acquiring securities for its portfolio, the Fund may dispose of a commitment before settlement if a subadviser deems it appropriate to do so. A Fund may realize short-term profits or losses upon the sale of forward commitments.
A Fund may enter into TBA sale commitments to hedge its portfolio positions or to sell securities it owns under delayed delivery arrangements. Proceeds of TBA sale commitments are not received until the contractual settlement date. Unsettled TBA sale commitments are valued at current market value of the underlying securities. If the TBA sale commitment is closed through the acquisition of an offsetting purchase commitment, a Fund realizes a gain or loss on the commitment without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security. If a Fund delivers securities under the commitment, the Fund realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the securities based upon the unit price established at the date the commitment was entered into.
A Fund may enter into mortgage dollar roll transactions (generally using TBAs) in which it sells a fixed-income security for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts to purchase similar securities (for example, same type, coupon and maturity) at an agreed upon future time. By engaging in a dollar roll transaction, a Fund foregoes principal and interest paid on the security that is sold but receives the difference between the current sales price and the forward price for the future purchase. A Fund would also be able to earn interest on the proceeds of the sale before they are reinvested. A Fund accounts for dollar rolls as purchases and sales. Dollar rolls may be used to create investment leverage and may increase a Fund’s risk and volatility.
The obligation to purchase securities on a specified future date involves the risk that the market value of the securities that a Fund is obligated to purchase may decline below the purchase price. In addition, in the event the other party to the transaction files for bankruptcy, becomes insolvent or defaults on its obligation, a Fund may be adversely affected.
Inflation-Protected Securities: A Fund may invest in U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (U.S. TIPS), which are fixed-income securities issued by the U.S. Department of Treasury, the principal amounts of which are adjusted daily based upon changes in the rate of inflation. A Fund may also invest in other inflation-protected securities issued by non-U.S. governments or by private issuers. U.S. TIPS pay interest on a semi-annual basis, equal to a fixed percentage of the inflation-adjusted principal amount. The interest rate on these bonds is fixed at issuance, but over the life of the bond this interest may be paid on an increasing or decreasing principal value that has been adjusted for inflation.
Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed for U.S. TIPS, even during a period of deflation. However, because the principal amount of U.S. TIPS would be adjusted downward during a period of deflation, a Fund will be subject to deflation risk with respect to its investments in these securities. In addition, the current market value of the bonds is not guaranteed and will fluctuate. If a Fund purchases in the secondary market U.S. TIPS whose principal values have been adjusted upward due to inflation since issuance, a Fund may experience a loss if there is a subsequent period of deflation. A Fund may also invest in other inflation-related bonds which may or may not provide a guarantee of principal. If a guarantee of principal is not provided, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal amount.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
The periodic adjustment of U.S. TIPS is currently tied to the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers ("CPI-U"), which is calculated by the U.S. Department of Treasury. The CPI-U is a measurement of changes in the cost of living, made up of components such as housing, food, transportation and energy. Inflation-protected bonds issued by a non-U.S. government are generally adjusted to reflect a comparable inflation index, calculated by that government. There can be no assurance that the CPI-U or any non-U.S. inflation index will accurately measure the real rate of inflation in the prices of goods and services. If interest rates rise due to reasons other than inflation (for example, due to changes in currency exchange rates), investors in these securities may not be protected to the extent that the increase is not reflected in the bond’s inflation measure. In addition, there can be no assurance that the rate of inflation in a non-U.S. country will be correlated to the rate of inflation in the United States.
In general, the value of inflation-protected bonds is expected to fluctuate in response to changes in real interest rates, which are in turn tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if inflation were to rise at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates might decline, leading to an increase in value of inflation-protected bonds. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increased at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-protected bonds. If inflation is lower than expected during the period a Fund holds the security, the Fund may earn less on the security than on a conventional bond. Any increase in principal value is taxable in the year the increase occurs, even though holders do not receive cash representing the increase at that time. As a result, if a Fund invests in inflation-protected securities, it could be required at times to liquidate other investments, including when it is not advantageous to do so, to satisfy its distribution requirements as a Registered Investment Company (RIC) and to eliminate any fund level income tax liability under the Code.
Distressed Companies, Loan Participations, Assignments and Unfunded Commitments: From time to time, a Fund may purchase the direct indebtedness of various companies (Indebtedness), or participation interests in Indebtedness (Participations), including Indebtedness and Participations of reorganizing companies. Indebtedness can be distinguished from traditional debt securities in that debt securities are part of a large issue of securities to the general public which is typically registered with a securities registration organization, such as the SEC, and which is held by a large group of investors. Indebtedness may not be a security, but rather, may represent a specific commercial loan or portion of a loan which has been given to a company by a financial institution such as a bank or insurance company. The company is typically obligated to repay such commercial loan over a specified time period. By purchasing the Indebtedness of companies, a Fund in effect steps into the role of the lender which made the loan to the company before its restructuring or refinancing. Indebtedness purchased by a Fund may be in the form of loans, notes or bonds.
The length of time remaining until maturity on the Indebtedness is one factor the subadvisers consider in purchasing a particular Indebtedness. Indebtedness which represents a specific Indebtedness of the company to a bank, is not considered to be a security issued by the bank selling it. A Fund may purchase loans from national and state-chartered banks as well as foreign banks, and they normally invest in the Indebtedness of a company which has the highest priority in terms of payment by the company, although on occasion lower priority Indebtedness also may be acquired.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Participations represent fractional interests in a company’s Indebtedness. The financial institutions that typically make Participations available are banks or insurance companies, governmental institutions, such as the Resolution Trust Corporation, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, or certain organizations such as the World Bank, which are known as “supranational organizations.” Supranational organizations are entities established or financially supported by the national governments of one or more countries to promote reconstruction or development. Indebtedness and Participations may be illiquid as described below.
When a Fund purchases a loan participation, the Fund enters into a contractual relationship with the lender or a third party selling such participations (“Selling Participant”), but not the borrower. In this case, the Fund assumes the credit risk of the borrower and the Selling Participant and any other persons inter-positioned between the Fund and the borrower (“Intermediate Participants”). In contrast, when one of the Funds purchases an assignment, the contractual relationship is with the borrower and the credit risk assumed by the Fund is only with the borrower. Although certain loan participations or assignments are secured by collateral, the Fund could experience delays or limitations in realizing such collateral or have its interest subordinated to other indebtedness of the obligor.
The Funds may also enter into unfunded commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding. These unfunded commitments represent a future obligation in full, even though a percentage of the commitment may not be utilized by the borrower. Loan commitments are made pursuant to a term loan, a revolving credit line or a combination thereof. A term loan is generally a loan in a fixed amount that borrowers repay in a scheduled series of repayments or a lump-sum payment at maturity. A revolving credit line permits borrowers to draw down, repay, and re-borrow specified amounts on demand. These types of investments may include standby financing commitments, which obligate the Fund to supply additional cash to the borrower on demand. The value of the unfunded portion of the investment is determined using a pro-rata allocation, based on its par value relative to the par value of the entire investment. The unfunded commitments are marked to market daily and any unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from unfunded commitments is reported in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as well as the Statements of Operations in the Funds’ Financial Statements. When investing in a loan participation, the Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the loan agreement and only upon receipt of payments by the lender from the borrower. The Fund may receive a commitment fee based on the undrawn portion of the underlying line of credit portion of a loan. In certain circumstances, the Fund may receive a penalty fee upon the prepayment of a loan by a borrower. Fees earned or paid are recorded as a component of interest income or interest expense, respectively, on the Statements of Operations. In addition, loan participations and assignments are vulnerable to market conditions such that economic conditions or other events may reduce the demand for loan participations and assignments and certain loan participations and assignments which were liquid, when purchased, may become illiquid.
Potential lack of investor protections under federal and state securities laws. If a corporate loan purchased by a Fund is not considered to be a “security,” the Fund will not receive the same investor protections with respect to such investment that are available to purchasers of investments that are considered “securities” under federal and state securities laws, including any possible recourse against an underwriter.

Mortgage Dollar Rolls: A Fund may enter into mortgage dollar rolls with a bank or a broker-dealer. A mortgage dollar roll is a transaction in which a Fund sells mortgage-related securities for immediate settlement and simultaneously purchases the same type of securities for forward settlement at a discount. While a Fund begins accruing interest on the newly purchased securities from the purchase or trade date, it is able to invest the proceeds from the sale of its previously owned securities, which will be used to pay for the new securities. The use of mortgage dollar rolls is a speculative technique involving leverage and can have an economic effect similar to borrowing money for investment purposes.
Private Placement and Restricted Securities: A Fund may invest in securities that are purchased in private placements and, accordingly, are subject to restrictions on resale as a matter of contract or under federal securities laws. Private placement and restricted securities are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act"), as amended, and may be neither listed on an exchange nor traded in other established markets. Some of these securities are new and complex, and trade only among institutions; the markets for these securities are still developing and may not function as efficiently as established markets. Because there may be relatively few potential purchasers for such investments, especially under adverse market or economic conditions or in the event of adverse changes in the financial condition of the issuer, a Fund could find it more difficult to sell such securities when a subadviser believes it advisable to do so or may be able to sell such securities only at prices lower than if such securities were more widely held, and potentially at prices lower than their fair market value. At times, it may also be more difficult to determine the fair value of such securities for purposes of computing a Fund’s net asset value.
Certain of the Funds’ investments in private placements may consist of direct investments and may include investments in smaller, less seasoned issuers, which may involve greater risks. These issuers may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources, or they may be dependent on a limited management group. In making investments in such securities, a Fund may obtain access to material non-public information, which may restrict the Fund’s ability to conduct portfolio transactions in such securities.
While such private placements may offer attractive opportunities for investment not otherwise available on the open market, the securities so purchased are often restricted securities, i.e., securities which cannot be sold to the public without registration under the Securities Act or the availability of an exemption from registration (such as Rules 144 or 144A), or which are not readily marketable because they are subject to other legal or contractual delays in or restrictions on resale.
The absence of a trading market can make it difficult to ascertain a market value for illiquid investments. Disposing of illiquid investments may involve time-consuming negotiation and legal expenses, and it may be difficult or impossible for a Fund to sell them promptly at an acceptable price. A Fund may have to bear the extra expense of registering such securities for resale and the risk of substantial delay in effecting such registration. In addition, market quotations are less readily available. The judgment of the adviser may at times play a greater role in valuing these securities than in the case of publicly traded securities.
Generally speaking, restricted securities may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers, or in a privately negotiated transaction to a limited number of purchasers, or in limited quantities after they have been held for a specified period of time and other conditions are met pursuant to an exemption from registration, or in a public
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
offering for which a registration statement is in effect under the Securities Act. Issuers whose securities are not publicly traded may not be subject to the disclosure and other investor protection requirements that may be applicable if their securities were registered or publicly traded.
From time to time, a restricted security may be registered for resale. A considerable time period may elapse between the time a Fund decides to sell the security and the time it is actually permitted to sell the security freely under an effective registration statement. If during such period, adverse market conditions were to develop, the Fund might obtain less favorable pricing terms than when it decided to sell the security. Transactions in restricted securities may entail other transaction costs that are higher than those for transactions in unrestricted securities.
When selling restricted securities to the public, a Fund may be deemed to be an underwriter for purposes of the Securities Act, and in such event the Fund may be liable to purchasers of such securities if the registration statement prepared by the issuer, or the Prospectuses forming a part of it, is materially inaccurate or misleading.
Restricted securities held by each Fund at October 31, 2022 are disclosed in the Schedules of Investments.
Securities Sold Short: Certain Funds may sell securities they do not own (a short sale) as a hedge against some of their long positions and/or in anticipation of a decline in the market value of that security. When a Fund makes a short sale, it must borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker through which it made the short sale. A Fund may have to pay a fee to borrow the particular security and may be obligated to remit any interest or dividends received on such borrowed securities. Dividends declared on short positions are recorded on the ex-date as an expense. A gain, limited to the price at which the Fund sold the security short, or a loss, which could be unlimited in magnitude, will be recognized upon the termination of a short sale if the market price at termination is less than or greater than, respectively, the proceeds originally received. The Fund is also subject to the risk that it may be unable to reacquire a security to terminate a short position except at a price substantially in excess of the last quoted price. A Fund is also subject to risk of loss if the broker were to fail to perform its obligations under the contractual terms. Liabilities for securities sold short are reported at market value on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and the change in market value is recorded as net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Statements of Operations.
The Funds are required to pledge cash or liquid securities to the broker as collateral for securities sold short. Collateral requirements are calculated daily based on the current market value of the short positions. Daily market fluctuations and trading activity could cause the value of securities sold short to be more or less than the value of the collateral segregated. Cash deposited with the broker for collateral for securities sold short is recorded as an asset on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and securities segregated as collateral are denoted in the Schedules of Investments. The Funds may receive or pay the net of the following amounts: (i) a portion of the income from the investment of cash collateral; (ii) the broker’s fee on the borrowed securities; and (iii) a financing charge for the difference in the market value of the short position and cash collateral deposited with the broker. This income or fee is calculated daily based upon the market value of each borrowed security and a variable rate that is dependent on the availability of the security.

Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs): The Morningstar Alternatives Fund may invest in the common stock of and other interests (e.g., warrants and rights) in special purpose acquisition companies or similar special purpose entities (collectively, “SPACs”). A SPAC is a special purpose vehicle that seeks to identify and effect an acquisition of, or merger with, an operating company in a particular industry or sector. SPACs typically issue public shares and warrants or rights pursuant to an initial public offering, and also typically issue “founders” shares and warrants or rights to the SPAC sponsor. During the period when management of the SPAC seeks to identify a potential acquisition or merger target, typically most of the capital raised for that purpose (less a portion retained to cover expenses) is invested in income-producing investments. The Morningstar Alternatives Fund may invest in SPACs for a variety of investment purposes, including to achieve income. These investments may include investments in the public shares, warrants or rights issued directly with a SPAC or may include founder’s shares, warrants or rights, either directly or indirectly through shares of a holding company. Some SPACs provide the opportunity for public common shareholders to have some or all of their shares redeemed by the SPAC at or around the time a proposed merger or acquisition is expected to occur. If not subject to a restriction on resale, the Fund may sell its investments in SPACs at any time, including before, at or after the time of a merger or acquisition. The Morningstar Alternatives Fund may invest in certain SPAC founder investments where the SPAC securities or the securities of a holding company owning SPAC securities will not be registered under the Securities Act, as amended and/or no public market may exist for such securities. Such investments involve a high degree of risk which could cause the Fund to lose all or part of its investment. The restrictions on resale of certain unregistered SPAC investments may be for an extended time (e.g., two to three years). The Morningstar Alternatives Fund does not presently intend to invest more than 5% of its net assets in unregistered SPACs at time of purchase, but reserves the right to increase that amount in appropriate situations.
Because SPACs and similar entities have no operating history or ongoing business other than seeking acquisitions, the value of their securities is particularly dependent on the ability of the entity’s management to identify and complete a profitable acquisition. Some SPACs may pursue acquisitions only within certain industries or regions, which may increase the volatility of their prices. In addition, these securities, which are typically traded in the over-the-counter market, may be considered illiquid and/or may be subject to restrictions on resale. An investment in a SPAC is subject to a variety of risks, including that (i) a significant portion of the monies raised by the SPAC for the purpose of identifying and effecting an acquisition or merger may be expended during the search for a target transaction; (ii) an attractive acquisition or merger target may not be identified at all and the SPAC will be required to return any remaining monies to shareholders; (iii) any proposed merger or acquisition may be unable to obtain the requisite approval, if any, of SPAC shareholders; (iv) an acquisition or merger once effected may prove unsuccessful and an investment in the SPAC may lose value; (v) the warrants or other rights with respect to the SPAC held by the Fund may expire worthless or may be repurchased or retired by the SPAC at an unfavorable price; (vi) the Fund will 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) no or only a thinly traded market for shares of or interests in a SPAC may develop, 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) founders shares, warrants or rights are subject to a greater risk of loss than public securities issued by a SPAC, and (x) the values of investments in SPACs may be highly volatile and may depreciate significantly over time. As of October 31, 2022, there were no SPACs held by the Funds.

Zero Coupon and Payment In-Kind Bonds: A Fund may invest without limit in so-called zero-coupon bonds and payment-in-kind bonds. Zero-coupon bonds are issued at a significant discount from their principal amount in lieu of paying interest periodically. Payment-in-kind bonds allow the issuer, at its option, to make current interest payments on the bonds either in cash or in additional bonds. Because zero-coupon and payment-in-kind bonds do not pay current interest in cash, their value is subject to greater fluctuation in response to changes in market interest rates than bonds that pay interest currently. Both zero-coupon and payment-in-kind bonds allow an issuer to avoid the need to generate cash to meet current interest payments. Accordingly, such bonds may involve greater credit risks than bonds paying interest currently in cash. A Fund is required to accrue interest income on such investments and to distribute such amounts at least annually to shareholders even though the investments do not make any current interest payments. Thus, it may be necessary at times for the Fund to liquidate other investments to satisfy its distribution requirements under the Code. The daily market quotations of the original bonds may include the accrued interest (referred to as a dirty price) and require a pro rata adjustment, if any, from the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments to interest receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
4. Investment Valuation and Fair Value Measurements
Investment Valuation Policies: The NAV of the Funds’ shares are valued as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each day that the NYSE is open (each a “Business Day”). The NAV per share of each Fund is computed by dividing the total current value of the assets of such Fund, less liabilities, by the total number of shares of the Fund outstanding at the time the computation is made. In general, investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at current market value, while investments whose market quotations are not readily available (as defined by Rule 2a-5 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) are fair valued.
As permitted under Rule 2a-5, the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) designated Morningstar Investment Management LLC to serve as the valuation designee. MIM, as valuation designee, carries out its day-to-day fair value responsibilities required under Rule 2a-5 through its Pricing Committee (the “Pricing Committee”) in accordance with procedures approved by the Board.
U.S. exchange-traded equity securities for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued at the regular trading session’s closing price on the exchange or system in which such securities are principally traded. Securities not traded on the valuation date are priced at the most recent quoted bid price. Non-U.S. exchange-traded equity securities prices are based on primary local market quotations. Depending upon local market convention or regulation, the price may represent the last sale price or the mean between the last bid and ask price at the close of the appropriate exchange or at designated times as determined by the appropriate governing body. For countries that allow securities to trade on multiple exchanges (e.g., U.S., Japan, Germany and India), the value of the security will be taken to be the last reported closing price from the security’s primary exchange. Over the Counter (“OTC”) securities which are not traded in the NASDAQ Global Market® shall be valued at the most recent trade price. Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available (including restricted securities which are subject to limitations as to their sale) are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee under procedures approved by the Board.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Short-term debt obligations with remaining maturities in excess of 60 days are typically valued using evaluated prices provided by a pricing service provider. To reflect their fair value, short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity may, unless conditions indicate otherwise, utilize amortized cost to maturity based on their cost to a Fund.
Each Fund may invest in foreign securities, and as a result, the calculation of the Fund’s NAV may not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of certain of the Fund securities used in the calculation. Occasionally, events which affect the values of such securities and such exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and the close of the NYSE and will therefore not be reflected in the computation of a Fund’s NAV. If events materially affecting the value of such securities occur during such period, then these securities may be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Pricing Committee under procedures approved by the Board. Portfolio securities that are traded both on an exchange and in the OTC market will be valued according to the broadest and most representative market. All assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currency values will be converted into U.S. Dollar values at the mean between the bid and offered quotations of the currencies against U.S. Dollars as last quoted by any recognized dealer.
To address this issue, the Pricing Committee uses independently provided quantitative models that may adjust the closing prices of certain foreign equity and fixed income securities based on information that becomes available after the foreign market closes, through the application of an adjustment factor to such securities’ closing price. Adjustment factors may be greater than, less than, or equal to 1. Thus, use of these quantitative models could cause a Fund to value a security higher, lower or equal to its closing market price, which in turn could cause the Fund’s NAV per share to differ from that which would have been calculated using closing market prices. The use of these quantitative models is also intended to decrease the opportunities for persons to engage in ‘‘time zone arbitrage,’’ i.e., trading intended to take advantage of stale closing prices in foreign markets that could affect the NAV of the Funds. Securities subjected to an adjustment factor due to the use of these quantitative models are not specifically designated as such on the Funds’ Schedule of Investments.
All other assets of a Fund are valued in such manner as the Pricing Committee in good faith deems appropriate to reflect their fair value. U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price the Funds would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable are fair valued by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the methodologies approved by such Committee.
Valuation Techniques: The following inputs and techniques may be used by the Funds to value their portfolio holdings and to evaluate how to classify each major category of assets and liabilities into the appropriate fair value hierarchy in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Equity securities, including securities sold short, rights, warrants, exchange traded funds (“ETFs”) and closed-end investment companies, are valued at the last quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market, or composite in which each security trades.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
An equity for which no sales are reported, as in the case of a security that is traded in the OTC market or a less liquid listed equity, is generally valued at its last bid price (in the case of short sales, at the asked price).
Listed options are generally valued at the last reported settlement price on the exchange or OTC market on which they principally trade. If the settlement price is not available, then listed options will be valued at the last traded price if the last traded price falls between bid/ask spread; and if the last traded price falls outside of the bid/ask spread, then the calculated mean based on bid/ ask prices obtained from the primary exchange will be used.
Futures contracts are generally valued at the last reported settlement price on the exchange or OTC market on which they principally trade. If the settlement price is not available, then futures contracts will be valued at the last traded price.
Fixed income securities (other than certain short-term investments maturing in 60 days or less) and other investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, are valued based on a methodology approved by the Pricing Committee. This includes certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds and less liquid listed equities. Corporate and sovereign bonds and other fixed-income instruments are valued at estimated fair value using the latest bid prices or evaluated quotes furnished by independent pricing services, as well as quotations from counterparties and other market participants. Evaluated quotes are based on a matrix system, which may consider such factors as quoted prices for identical or similar assets, yields, maturities and ratings and are not necessarily reliant on quoted prices. Short-term debt investments of sufficient credit quality maturing in 60 days or less are generally valued at amortized cost (unless conditions indicate otherwise), which approximates fair value.
Investments classified within Level 3, if any, have significant unobservable inputs, as they trade infrequently or not at all. Level 3 instruments may include illiquid securities. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the Pricing Committee may use one or more valuation approaches (e.g., the market approach or the income approach), including proprietary models for which sufficient and reliable data is available. Within Level 3, the market approach generally is based on the technique of using comparable market transactions/multiples, while the use of the income approach includes the estimation of future cash flows discounted to calculate fair value. Discounts may also be applied due to the nature or durations of any restrictions on the disposition of the investment or adjusted as appropriate for credit, market and/or other risk factors.
The inputs used by the Pricing Committee in estimating the value of Level 3 investments may include, if applicable, such factors as described in the procedures approved by the Board, including, but not limited to, the original transaction price, recent transactions in the same or similar instruments, completed or pending third party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, third party broker quotes, deal terms, subsequent rounds of financing, recapitalizations and other transactions across the capital structure, offerings in the equity or debt capital markets, changes in financial ratios or cash flows, benchmark yield curves, credit spreads, estimated default rates, underlying collateral, and other unique security features. Level 3 investments may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by Pricing Committee in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the Pricing Committee due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the fair value of the investment.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Exchange-traded derivatives, such as futures contracts and exchange-traded option contracts, are typically classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on whether or not they are deemed to be actively traded. Futures and option contracts that are listed on national exchanges and are freely transferable are valued at fair value based on their last reported settlement price on the date of determination on the exchange their constitutes the principal market or, if the settlement price is not available, generally at the last traded price. For listed options contracts, if the last traded price falls outside the bid/ask spread, then the calculated mean based on bid/ask prices obtained from the primary exchange will be used. Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are valued on a daily basis using quotations provided by an independent pricing service.
Forward contracts are typically classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
OTC derivatives, including options on forward contracts, put and call options, contracts for differences and swap contracts, are valued by the Pricing Committee on a daily basis using observable inputs, such as quotations provided by an independent pricing service, the counterparty, dealers or brokers, whenever available and considered reliable.
The U.S. Dollar value of forward foreign currency exchange contracts is determined using current forward currency exchange rates supplied by an independent pricing service.
Shares of open end investment companies, other than exchange-traded funds, are valued at their NAV.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are unreliable are fair valued by the Pricing Committee in accordance with the methodologies approved by such Committee. Attempts to determine the fair value of securities introduce an element of subjectivity to the pricing of securities. This fair value may be higher or lower than any available market price or quotation for such security and, because this process necessarily depends upon judgment, this value also may vary from valuations determined by other funds using their own valuation procedures. While each Fund’s use of fair value pricing is intended to result in calculation of a NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing, a Fund cannot guarantee that any fair value price will, in fact, approximate the amount the Fund would actually realize upon the sale of the securities in question. If a reliable market quotation becomes available for a security formerly valued through fair valuation techniques, a Fund would compare the new market quotation to the fair value price to evaluate the effectiveness of its fair valuation procedures. If any significant discrepancies are found, the fair valuation procedures may be reviewed or adjusted.
The price a Fund could receive upon the sale of any particular portfolio investment may differ from the Fund’s valuation of the investment, particularly for securities that trade in thin or volatile markets or that are valued using a fair valuation methodology or a price provided by an independent pricing service. As a result, the price received upon the sale of an investment may be less than the value ascribed by a Fund, and the Fund could realize a greater than expected loss or lesser than expected gain upon the sale of the investment. Pricing services that value fixed-income securities generally utilize a range of market-based and security-specific inputs and assumptions, as well as considerations about general market conditions, to establish a price. Pricing services generally value fixed-income securities assuming orderly transactions of an institutional round lot size,
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
but may be held or transactions may be conducted in such securities in smaller, odd lot sizes. Odd lots often trade at lower prices than institutional round lots. A Fund’s ability to value its investments may also be impacted by technological issues and/or errors by pricing services or other third-party service providers.
Fair Valuation Hierarchy: Fair value is defined as the price that a Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It establishes a framework and requires disclosure of a fair value hierarchy, separately for each major category of assets and liabilities that segregates fair value measurements into levels (Levels 1, 2, and 3). Categorizations of fair value measurements, and the criteria used to determine each categorization, are as follows:
• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (e.g. equity securities and open end investment companies).
• Level 2 – prices determined using other significant observable inputs including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) or other market corroborated inputs.
• Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs (including the Pricing Committee’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).
Valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. Transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the end of the reporting period.
A valuation hierarchy including information regarding Level 3 securities, where applicable, is shown at the end of each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
The Pricing Committee determined that based on their analysis of the market and access to market participants, the Russian equity securities held by the Funds had little or no value at October 31, 2022. Refer to Market Risk in Note 10.
5. Investment Advisory and Other Agreements
The Trust has an Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Adviser, with whom certain officers and trustees of the Trust are affiliated, to furnish certain portfolio management services to the Funds.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Funds have contractually agreed to pay the Adviser a management fee calculated on the average daily net assets for each Fund, in the annual ratios below.
Fund | Ratio |
Morningstar U.S. Equity Fund | 0.67% |
Morningstar International Equity Fund | 0.83% |
Morningstar Global Income Fund | 0.35% |
Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund | 0.44% |

Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund | 0.61% |
Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund | 0.47% |
Morningstar Alternatives Fund | 0.85% |
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Adviser is responsible for performing and overseeing portfolio management services to the Funds. In addition to selecting the overall investment strategies of the Funds, the Adviser oversees and monitors the selection and performance of the subadvisers and allocates assets among the subadvisers. The subadvisers manage each Fund’s investment portfolio pursuant to subadvisory agreements with the Adviser. The Adviser manages a portion of each Fund which may include equities, ETFs, mutual funds and money market fund investments.
The Trust and the Adviser have entered into a contractual expense limitation agreement (Base Expense Limitation Agreement) whereby the Adviser agreed to waive all or a portion of its fees or assume certain other expenses of each Fund at least through August 31, 2023, to the extent necessary to ensure that the total annual fund operating expenses (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, trading costs, acquired fund fees and expenses, short sale dividend and interest expenses, litigation expenses, and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed the following rates, based on each Fund’s average daily net assets. The amount the Adviser owes a Fund as of the reporting date is recorded as a Receivable from Adviser in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Adviser reimburses the Funds on a monthly basis. This management fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement will not be subject to future recoupment. For the six months ended October 31, 2022, the Funds’ Adviser waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses pursuant to the Base Expense Limitation Agreement for each of the Funds as follows:
Fund | Base Expense Cap | Management Fees Waived |
Morningstar U.S. Equity Fund | 0.85% | $191,127 |

Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund | 0.80% | 184,016 |
Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund | 1.00% | — |
Morningstar Alternatives Fund | 1.29% | — |
The Trust and the Adviser have entered into a supplemental expense limitation agreement (Supplemental Expense Limitation Agreement) whereby the Adviser has agreed to waive all or a portion of its fees or assume certain other expenses of each Fund at least through August 31, 2023, to the extent necessary to ensure that the total annual fund operating expenses (excluding the above listed expenses other than acquired fund fees and expenses) do not exceed the following rates, based on each Fund’s average daily net assets. The amount the Adviser owes a Fund as of the reporting date is recorded as a Receivable from Adviser in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Adviser reimburses the Funds on a monthly basis. This management fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement will not be subject to future recoupment. For the six months ended October 31,

7. Securities Lending
The Morningstar Defensive Bond Fund, Morningstar Global Income Fund, Morningstar International Equity Fund, Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund, Morningstar U.S. Equity Fund, and Morningstar Global Opportunistic Equity Fund participate in a securities lending program. Under the securities lending program, Northern Trust serves as the Securities Lending Agent (or "Agent") pursuant to a Securities Lending Authorization Agreement (the “Securities Lending Agreement”). The Securities Lending Agent provides the following services for the Funds listed above in connection with securities lending activities: (i) entering into loans with approved entities subject to guidelines or restrictions contained in the Securities Lending Agreement; (ii) selecting securities to be loaned pursuant to the Securities Lending Agent’s impartial sequencing; (iii) reviewing creditworthiness of securities lending counterparties; (iv) receiving and holding collateral from borrowers, and facilitating the investment and reinvestment of cash collateral; (v) each business day, monitoring the value of the loaned securities and collateral, including receiving and delivering additional collateral as necessary from/to borrowers; (vi) negotiating loan terms; (vii) recordkeeping and account servicing; (viii) monitoring dividend/distribution activity relating to loaned securities; and (ix) arranging for return of loaned securities to the Funds at loan termination.
Each Fund will limit lending to be less than one third of the value of its total assets. The Funds’ securities held at the Securities Lending Agent as custodian shall be available to be lent except those securities the Funds specifically identify in writing as not being available for lending. The borrower pledges and maintains with each Fund collateral consisting of cash and securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities. The initial collateral received by each Fund is required to have a value of no less than 102% of the market value of the loaned securities for U.S. securities and a value of no less than 105% of the market value for non-U.S. securities. The collateral is maintained thereafter, at a market value equal to not less than 102% of the current value of the U.S. securities on loan and not less than 105% of the current value of the non-U.S. securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of each business day and any additional required collateral is delivered to each Fund on the next business day. During the term of the loan, each Fund is entitled to all distributions made on or in respect of the loaned securities. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the customary time period for settlement of securities transactions.
Cash collateral received is invested in a money market fund managed by Northern Trust Investments, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Northern Trust Corporation as disclosed in each Fund’s Schedule of Investments and reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as a payable for collateral upon return of securities loaned. The remaining contractual maturity of securities lending transactions with cash collateral is overnight and continuous. Non-cash collateral, in the form of securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, is held by the Securities Lending Agent on behalf of each Fund, and each Fund does not have the ability to re-hypothecate these securities. Each Fund receives compensation for lending securities from interest or dividends earned on the cash, cash equivalents or U.S. government securities held as collateral, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower and reasonable administrative and custody fees paid to the lending agent. Such compensation is accrued daily and payable to the Fund monthly. The dividend and interest income earned on the securities loaned is accounted for in the same manner as other dividend and interest income. The borrower pays to the Funds an amount equal to any dividends or interest received on loaned

securities. These payments from the borrower are not eligible for reduced tax rates as "qualified dividend income" under the Jobs and Growth Tax Reconciliation Act of 2003. The securities lending income earned by the Funds is disclosed on the Statement of Operations.
The following is a summary of the Funds' securities on loan and related cash and non-cash collateral received as of October 31, 2022:

Securities lending involves two primary risks: “investment risk” and “borrower default risk.” Investment risk is the risk that a Fund will lose money from the investment of the cash collateral received from the borrower. Borrower default risk is the risk that a Fund will lose money due to the failure of a borrower to return a borrowed security in a timely manner. There also may be risks of delay in receiving additional collateral, in recovering the securities loaned, or a loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. In the event a Fund is unsuccessful in seeking to enforce the contractual obligation to deliver additional collateral, then the Fund could suffer a loss. To mitigate borrower default risk, the Funds benefit from a borrower default indemnity provided by the Securities Lending Agent. The Securities Lending Agent’s indemnity allows for full replacement of securities lent wherein the Agent will purchase the unreturned loaned securities on the open market applying the proceeds of the collateral, or to the extent such proceeds are insufficient or the collateral is unavailable, the Securities Lending Agent will purchase the unreturned loan securities at the Agent’s expense. However, the Funds could suffer a loss if the value of the investments purchased with cash collateral falls below the value of the cash collateral received.
Due to the absence of a master netting agreement related to the Funds' participation in securities lending, no offsetting disclosure has been made on behalf of the Funds.

8. Financial Derivative Instruments
Certain Funds may invest in derivatives as part of their principal investment strategies in an attempt to achieve their investment objective. The Funds’ derivative contracts are not accounted for as hedging instruments under U.S. GAAP. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset financial assets and financial liabilities that are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts: A forward foreign currency contract is an obligation to purchase or sell a specific non-U.S. currency in exchange for another currency, which may be U.S. dollars, at an agreed exchange rate (price) at a future date. Currency forwards are typically individually negotiated and privately traded by currency traders and their customers in the interbank market. A forward foreign currency contract will tend to reduce or eliminate exposure to the currency that is sold, and increase exposure to the currency that is purchased, similar to when a Fund sells a security denominated in one currency and purchases a security denominated in another currency.
At the maturity of a forward foreign currency contract, a Fund may either exchange the currencies specified at the maturity of a forward foreign currency contract or, prior to maturity, the Fund may enter into a closing transaction involving the purchase or sale of an offsetting contract. Closing transactions with respect to forward foreign currency contract are usually effected with the counterparty to the original forward contract. A Fund may also enter into forward foreign currency contracts that do not provide for physical settlement of the two currencies but instead provide for settlement by a single cash payment calculated as the difference between the agreed upon exchange rate and the spot rate at settlement based upon an agreed upon notional amount (non-deliverable forwards).
Under definitions adopted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and SEC, non-deliverable forwards are considered swaps, and therefore are included in the definition of “commodity interests.” Although non-deliverable forwards have historically been traded in the OTC market, as swaps they may in the future be required to be centrally cleared and traded on public facilities. Forward foreign currency contracts that qualify as deliverable forwards are not regulated as swaps for most purposes, and are not included in the definition of “commodity interests.” However these forwards are subject to some requirements applicable to swaps, including reporting to swap data repositories, documentation requirements, and business conduct rules applicable to swap dealers.
CFTC regulation of forward foreign currency contracts, especially non-deliverable forwards, may restrict a Fund’s ability to use these instruments in the manner described above or subject the adviser to CFTC registration and regulation as a commodity pool operator with respect to that Fund.
The successful use of these transactions will usually depend on the adviser’s or a subadviser’s ability to accurately forecast currency exchange rate movements. Should exchange rates move in an unexpected manner, a Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the transaction, or it may realize losses. In addition, these techniques could result in a loss if the counterparty to the transaction does not perform as promised, including because of the counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. In unusual or extreme market conditions, a counterparty’s creditworthiness and ability to perform may deteriorate rapidly, and the availability of suitable
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
replacement counterparties may become limited. Moreover, investors should bear in mind that the Funds are not obligated to actively engage in hedging or other currency transactions. For example, a Fund may not have attempted to hedge its exposure to a particular foreign currency at a time when doing so might have avoided a loss.
Forward foreign currency contracts may limit potential gain from a positive change in the relationship between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies. Unanticipated changes in currency prices may result in poorer overall performance for a Fund than if it had not engaged in such contracts. Moreover, there may be an imperfect correlation between a Fund’s portfolio holdings of securities denominated in a particular currency and the currencies bought or sold in the forward foreign currency contract entered into by the Fund. This imperfect correlation may cause a Fund to sustain losses that will prevent the Fund from achieving a complete hedge or expose the Fund to risk of foreign exchange loss.
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments. Any resulting unrealized gains or losses are recorded in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on forward foreign currency exchange contracts in the Statements of Operations. Gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until settlement date. Realized gains or losses, if any, are included in Net realized gains (losses) on forward foreign currency exchange contracts in the Statements of Operations.
Futures Contracts: A Fund may enter into futures contracts. Generally, a futures contract is a standard binding agreement to buy or sell a specified quantity of an underlying reference instrument, such as a specific security, rate, currency or commodity, at a specified price at a specified later date. Each Fund may purchase or sell interest rate futures for the purpose of hedging some or all of the value of its portfolio securities against changes in prevailing interest rates or to manage its duration or effective maturity. If MIM or a subadviser anticipates that interest rates may rise and, concomitantly, the price of certain of its portfolio securities may fall, a Fund may sell futures contracts. If declining interest rates are anticipated, a Fund may purchase futures contracts to protect against a potential increase in the price of securities the Fund intends to purchase. Subsequently, appropriate securities may be purchased by a Fund in an orderly fashion; as securities are purchased, corresponding futures positions would be terminated by offsetting sales of contracts.
When a Fund enters into a futures contract, it must deliver to an account controlled by a futures commission merchant ("FCM") an amount referred to as “initial margin” that is typically calculated as an amount equal to the volatility in market value of a contract over a fixed period. Initial margin requirements are determined by the respective exchanges on which the futures contracts are traded and the FCM. Thereafter, a “variation margin” amount may be required to be paid by a Fund or received by the Fund in accordance with margin controls set for such accounts, depending upon changes in the marked-to-market value of the futures contract. The account is marked-to-market daily and the variation margin is monitored by a Fund’s investment manager and custodian on a daily basis. When the futures contract is closed out, if a Fund has a loss equal to or greater than the margin amount, the margin amount is paid to the FCM along with any loss in excess of the margin amount. If a Fund has a loss of less than the margin amount, the excess margin is returned to the Fund. If a Fund has a gain, the full margin amount and the amount of the gain is paid to the Fund.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
A Fund’s use of futures contracts is subject to the risks associated with derivative instruments generally. In addition, if MIM’s or a subadviser’s judgment about the general direction of interest rates or markets is wrong, a Fund’s overall performance may be poorer than if no financial futures contracts had been entered into. For example, in some cases, securities called for by a financial futures contract may not have been issued at the time the contract was written. In addition, the market prices of financial futures contracts may be affected by certain factors.
There is a risk of loss by a Fund of the initial and variation margin deposits in the event of bankruptcy of the FCM with which the Fund has an open position in a futures contract. The assets of a Fund may not be fully protected in the event of the bankruptcy of the FCM or central counterparty because the Fund might be limited to recovering only a pro rata share of all available funds and margin segregated on behalf of an FCM’s customers. If an FCM does not provide accurate reporting, a Fund is also subject to the risk that the FCM could use the Fund’s assets, which are held in an omnibus account with assets belonging to the FCM’s other customers, to satisfy its own financial obligations or the payment obligations of another customer to the central counterparty.
The risk of loss in trading financial futures can be substantial due to the low margin deposits required and the extremely high degree of leverage involved in futures pricing. Relatively small price movements in a financial futures contract could have an immediate and substantial impact, which may be favorable or unfavorable to a Fund. It is possible for a price-related loss to exceed the amount of a Fund’s margin deposit.
Each Fund will incur brokerage fees in connection with its futures transactions. In addition, while futures contracts will be purchased and sold to reduce certain risks, those transactions themselves entail certain other risks. Thus, while a Fund may benefit from the use of futures, unanticipated changes in interest rates or stock price movements may result in a poorer overall performance for the Fund than if it had not entered into any futures contracts. Moreover, in the event of an imperfect correlation between the futures position and the portfolio position that is intended to be protected, the desired protection may not be obtained and the Fund may be exposed to risk of loss.
Although some financial futures contracts by their terms call for the actual delivery or acquisition of securities at expiration, in most cases the contractual commitment is closed out before expiration. The offsetting of a contractual obligation is accomplished by purchasing (or selling as the case may be) on a commodities or futures exchange an identical financial futures contract calling for delivery in the same month. Such a transaction, if effected through a member of an exchange, cancels the obligation to make or take delivery of the securities. A Fund will incur brokerage fees when it purchases or sells financial futures contracts, and will be required to maintain margin deposits. If a liquid secondary market does not exist when a Fund wishes to close out a financial futures contract, it will not be able to do so and will continue to be required to make daily cash payments of variation margin in the event of adverse price movements. There is no assurance that a Fund will be able to enter into closing transactions.
The CFTC and the various exchanges have established limits referred to as “speculative position limits” on the maximum net long or net short position that any person, such as a Fund, may hold or control in a particular futures contract. Trading limits are also imposed on the maximum number of contracts that any person may
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
trade on a particular trading day. An exchange may order the liquidation of positions found to be in violation of these limits and it may impose other sanctions or restrictions. The regulation of futures, as well as other derivatives, is a rapidly changing area of law.
Futures exchanges may also limit the amount of fluctuation permitted in certain futures contract prices during a single trading day. This daily limit establishes the maximum amount that the price of a futures contract may vary either up or down from the previous day’s settlement price. Once the daily limit has been reached in a futures contract subject to the limit, no more trades may be made on that day at a price beyond that limit. The daily limit governs only price movements during a particular trading day and does not limit potential losses because the limit may prevent the liquidation of unfavorable positions. For example, futures prices have occasionally moved to the daily limit for several consecutive trading days with little or no trading, thereby preventing prompt liquidation of positions and subjecting some holders of futures contracts to substantial losses.
Futures contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments. The Statements of Operations include any realized gains or losses on closed futures contracts in Net realized gains (losses) on futures contracts, and any unrealized gains or losses on open futures contracts in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on futures contracts. At October 31, 2022, the Morningstar Global Income Fund, the Morningstar Total Return Bond Fund, the Morningstar Multisector Bond Fund, and the Morningstar Alternatives Fund pledged cash to cover margin requirements for open futures positions in an amount of $888,690, $3,763,496, $71,305 and $1,091,671, respectively, which is included in Due from Broker on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Options on Futures Contracts: Options on futures contracts trade on the same contract markets as the underlying futures contract. When a Fund buys an option, it pays a premium for the right, but does not have the obligation, to purchase (call) or sell (put) a futures contract at a set price (called the exercise price). The purchase of a call or put option on a futures contract, whereby a Fund has the right to purchase or sell, respectively, a particular futures contract, is similar in some respects to the purchase of a call or put option on an individual security or currency. Depending on the premium paid for the option compared to either the price of the futures contract upon which it is based or the price of the underlying reference instrument, the option may be less risky than direct ownership of the futures contract or the underlying reference instrument.
The seller (writer) of an option becomes contractually obligated to take the opposite futures position if the buyer of the option exercises its rights to the futures position specified in the option. In return for the premium paid by the buyer, the seller assumes the risk of taking a possibly adverse futures position. In addition, the seller will be required to post and maintain initial and variation margin with the FCM.
A Fund’s use of options on futures contracts is subject to the risks related to derivative instruments generally. In addition, the amount of risk the Fund assumes when it purchases an option on a futures contract is the premium paid for the option plus related transaction costs. The purchase of an option also entails the risk that changes in the value of the underlying futures contract will not be fully reflected in the value of the option purchased. The seller (writer) of an option on a futures contract is subject to the risk of having to take a possibly adverse futures position if the purchaser of the option exercises its rights. If the seller were required to take such a position, it could bear substantial losses. An option writer has potentially unlimited economic risk
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
because its potential loss, except to the extent offset by the premium received, is equal to the amount the option is “in-the-money” at the expiration date. A call option is in-the-money if the value of the underlying futures contract exceeds the exercise price of the option. A put option is in-the-money if the exercise price of the option exceeds the value of the underlying futures contract.
Options: A Fund may purchase and sell call and put options. An option is a contract that gives the purchaser of the option, in return for the premium paid, the right to buy an underlying reference instrument, such as a specified security, currency, index, or other instrument, from the writer of the option (in the case of a call option), or to sell a specified reference instrument to the writer of the option (in the case of a put option) at a designated price during the term of the option. The premium paid by the buyer of an option will reflect, among other things, the relationship of the exercise price to the market price and the volatility of the underlying reference instrument, the remaining term of the option, supply, demand, interest rates and/or currency exchange rates. An American style put or call option may be exercised at any time during the option period while a European style put or call option may be exercised only upon expiration or during a fixed period prior thereto. Put and call options are traded on national securities exchanges and in the OTC market.
As the buyer of a call option, a Fund has a right to buy the underlying reference instrument (e.g., a currency or security) at the exercise price at any time during the option period (for American style options). A Fund may enter into closing sale transactions with respect to call options, exercise them, or permit them to expire. Unless the price of the underlying reference instrument changes sufficiently, a call option purchased by a Fund may expire without any value to the Fund, in which case the Fund would experience a loss to the extent of the premium paid for the option plus related transaction costs.
As the buyer of a put option, a Fund has the right to sell the underlying reference instrument at the exercise price at any time during the option period (for American style options). Like a call option, a Fund may enter into closing sale transactions with respect to put options, exercise them or permit them to expire. If a put option is not terminated in a closing sale transaction when it has remaining value, and if the market price of the underlying reference instrument remains equal to or greater than the exercise price during the life of the put option, the buyer would not make any gain upon exercise of the option and would experience a loss to the extent of the premium paid for the option plus related transaction costs. In order for the purchase of a put option to be profitable, the market price of the underlying reference instrument must decline sufficiently below the exercise price to cover the premium and transaction costs.
Writing options may permit the writer to generate additional income in the form of the premium received for writing the option. The writer of an option may have no control over when the underlying reference instruments must be sold (in the case of a call option) or purchased (in the case of a put option) because the writer may be notified of exercise at any time prior to the expiration of the option (for American style options). In general, though, options are infrequently exercised prior to expiration. Whether or not an option expires unexercised, the writer retains the amount of the premium. Writing “covered” call options means that the writer owns the underlying reference instrument that is subject to the call option. Call options may also be written on reference instruments that the writer does not own.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
If a call option written by a Fund expires unexercised, the Fund will realize a gain in the amount of the premium received. If the market price of the underlying reference instrument decreases, the call option will not be exercised and the Fund will be able to use the amount of the premium received to hedge against the loss in value of the underlying reference instrument. The exercise price of a call option will be chosen based upon the expected price movement of the underlying reference instrument. The exercise price of a call option may be below, equal to (at-the money), or above the current value of the underlying reference instrument at the time the option is written.
As the writer of a put option, a Fund has a risk of loss should the underlying reference instrument decline in value. If the value of the underlying reference instrument declines below the exercise price of the put option and the put option is exercised, the Fund, as the writer of the put option, will be required to buy the instrument at the exercise price, which will exceed the market value of the underlying reference instrument at that time. A Fund will incur a loss to the extent that the current market value of the underlying reference instrument is less than the exercise price of the put option. However, the loss will be offset in part by the premium received from the buyer of the put. If a put option written by a Fund expires unexercised, the Fund will realize a gain in the amount of the premium received.
Options involve certain risks, including general risks related to derivative instruments. There can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market on an exchange will exist for any particular option, or at any particular time, and a Fund may have difficulty effecting closing transactions in particular options. Therefore, a Fund would have to exercise the options it purchased in order to realize any profit, thus taking or making delivery of the underlying reference instrument when not desired. A Fund could then incur transaction costs upon the sale of the underlying reference instruments. Similarly, when a Fund cannot effect a closing transaction with respect to a put option it wrote, and the buyer exercises, the Fund would be required to take delivery and would incur transaction costs upon the sale of the underlying reference instruments purchased. If a Fund, as a covered call option writer, is unable to effect a closing purchase transaction in a secondary market, it will not be able to sell the underlying reference instrument until the option expires, it delivers the underlying instrument upon exercise, or it segregates enough liquid assets to purchase the underlying reference instrument at the marked-to-market price during the term of the option. When trading options on non-U.S. exchanges or in the OTC market, many of the protections afforded to exchange participants will not be available. For example, there may be no daily price fluctuation limits, and adverse market movements could therefore continue to an unlimited extent over an indefinite period of time.
The effectiveness of an options strategy for hedging depends on the degree to which price movements in the underlying reference instruments correlate with price movements in the relevant portion of a Fund’s portfolio that is being hedged. In addition, a Fund bears the risk that the prices of its portfolio investments will not move in the same amount as the option it has purchased or sold for hedging purposes, or that there may be a negative correlation that would result in a loss on both the investments and the option. If the investment manager is not successful in using options in managing a Fund’s investments, the Fund’s performance will be worse than if the investment manager did not employ such strategies.
Options on Interest-Rate Swaps: An option on an interest-rate swap (sometimes referred to as a “swaption”) is a contract that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, in return for payment of a premium, to enter into a new interest- rate swap. Options on swap agreements involve the risks associated
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
with derivative instruments generally, as well as the additional risks associated with both options and swaps generally. A pay fixed option on an interest-rate swap gives the buyer the right to establish a position in an interest-rate swap where the buyer will pay (and the writer will receive) the fixed-rate cash flows and receive (and the writer will pay) the floating-rate cash flows. In general, most options on interest-rate swaps are “European” exercise, which means that they can only be exercised at the end of the option term.
Depending on the movement of interest rates between the time of purchase and expiration, the value of the underlying interest-rate swap and therefore also the value of the option on the interest-rate swap will change. When a Fund purchases an option on a swap agreement, it risks losing only the amount of the premium it has paid should it decide to let the option expire unexercised, plus any related transaction costs. However, if a Fund writes (sells) a swaption, the Fund is bound by the terms of the underlying swap agreement upon exercise of the option by the buyer, which may result in losses to the Fund in excess of the premium it received.
Options on swap agreements are considered to be swaps for purposes of CFTC regulation. Although they are traded OTC, the CFTC may in the future designate certain options on swaps as subject to mandatory clearing.
When a Fund purchases an option on a swap, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Fund is recorded as an Investment on the Schedules of Investments, the value of which is marked-to-market daily to reflect its current market value. If the option on a swap expires, a Fund realizes a loss equal to the amount of the premium paid.
Options on swap agreements are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers. Changes in the value of an option on a swap are reported as unrealized gains or losses.
Interest Rate, Inflation Index and Total Return Swap Contracts: A Fund may purchase interest-rate swaps. A Fund may use interest-rate swaps to increase or decrease exposure to a particular interest rate or rates, which may result in the Fund experiencing a gain or loss depending on whether the interest rates increased or decreased during the term of the agreement. A Fund may also enter into inflation index swaps to manage exposure to inflation risk. An inflation index swap is an agreement between two parties, whereby one party makes payments based on the cumulative percentage increase in an index that serves as a measure of inflation (typically, the Consumer Price Index) and the other party makes a regular payment based on a compounded fixed rate. The value of an inflation index swap is expected to change in response to changes in the rate of inflation. If inflation increases at a faster rate than anticipated at the time the swap is entered into, the swap will increase in value. Similarly, if inflation increases at a rate slower than anticipated at the time the swap is entered into, the swap will decrease in value. A Fund may also engage in total return swaps, in which payments made by the Fund or the counterparty are based on the total return of a particular reference asset or assets (such as a fixed-income security, a combination of securities, or an index). The value of a Fund’s swap positions would increase or decrease depending on the changes in value of the underlying rates, currency values, volatility or other indexes or measures. Caps and floors have an effect similar to buying or writing options. Depending on how they are used, swap agreements may increase or decrease the overall volatility of a Fund’s investments and its share price. A Fund’s ability to engage in certain swap transactions may be limited by tax considerations.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
A Fund’s ability to realize a profit from such transactions will depend on the ability of the financial institutions with which it enters into the transactions to meet their obligations to the Fund. If a counterparty’s creditworthiness declines, the value of the agreement would be likely to decline, potentially resulting in losses. If a default occurs by the other party to such transaction, a Fund will have contractual remedies pursuant to the agreements related to the transaction, which may be limited by applicable law in the case of a counterparty’s insolvency. Under certain circumstances, suitable transactions may not be available to a Fund, or the Fund may be unable to close out its position under such transactions at the same time, or at the same price, as if it had purchased comparable publicly traded securities. Swaps carry counterparty risks that cannot be fully anticipated. Also, because swap transactions typically involve a contract between the two parties, such swap investments can be extremely illiquid, as it is uncertain as to whether another counterparty would wish to take assignment of the rights under the swap contract at a price acceptable to a Fund.
For centrally cleared swaps, the Schedules of Investments include the cumulative appreciation (depreciation), while only the current day’s variation margin is reported within the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For interest rate contracts, an up-front payment received by a Fund is recorded as a liability and an upfront payment made by a Fund is recorded as an asset on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Upfront payments are amortized over the term of the contract. If there is no upfront payment or receipt, market value will equal unrealized appreciation(depreciation). Periodic payments received (paid) by a Fund are recorded as realized gains (losses) from the expiration or closing of swap contracts on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Interest rate swaps are marked to market daily and the change is recorded as unrealized gain (loss) on swap contracts in the Statements of Operations. The Funds’ risk of loss associated with these instruments may exceed their value, as recorded in the Schedules of Investments. Non-deliverable interest rate swap contracts are settled with the counterparty in U.S. Dollars without the delivery of foreign currency. Centrally cleared interest rate swaps may have forward effective dates. The amortization of the upfront premiums (if applicable) and payments related to these swap contracts begin on the effective date of the contract. Interest rate, inflation index and total return swaps contracts outstanding, including their respective notional amounts at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Credit Default Swaps: A Fund may purchase credit default swaps. A credit default swap is an agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that enables the Fund to buy or sell protection against a credit event related to a particular issuer. One party, acting as a protection buyer, makes periodic payments, which may be based on, among other things, a fixed or floating rate of interest, to the other party, a protection seller, in exchange for a promise by the protection seller to make a payment to the protection buyer if a negative credit event (such as a delinquent payment or default) occurs with respect to a referenced bond or group of bonds. Credit default swaps may also be structured based on the debt of a basket of issuers, rather than a single issuer, and may be customized with respect to the default event that triggers purchase or other factors, or defaults by a particular combination of issuers within the basket, may trigger a payment obligation). As a credit protection seller in a credit default swap contract, a Fund would be required to pay the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced debt obligation to the counterparty following certain negative credit events as to a specified third party debtor, such as default by a U.S. or non-U.S. corporate issuer on its debt obligations. In return for its obligation, a Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments, which may be based on, among other things, a fixed or floating rate of interest, over the term of the contract provided that no event of
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
default has occurred. If no default occurs, a Fund would keep the stream of payments, and would have no payment obligations to the counterparty. A Fund may sell credit protection to earn additional income and/or to take a synthetic long position in the underlying security or basket of securities.
A Fund may enter into credit default swap contracts as protection buyer to hedge against the risk of default on the debt of a particular issuer or basket of issuers or attempt to profit from a deterioration or perceived deterioration in the creditworthiness of the particular issuer(s) (also known as buying credit protection). This would involve the risk that the investment may expire worthless and would only generate gain in the event of an actual default by the issuer(s) of the underlying obligation(s) (or, as applicable, a credit downgrade or other indication of financial instability). It would also involve the risk that the seller may fail to satisfy its payment obligations to a Fund. The purchase of credit default swaps involves costs, which will reduce a Fund’s return.
Credit default swaps involve a number of special risks. A protection seller may have to pay out amounts following a negative credit event greater than the value of the reference obligation delivered to it by its counterparty and the amount of periodic payments previously received by it from the counterparty. When a Fund acts as a seller of a credit default swap, it is exposed to, among other things, leverage risk because if an event of default occurs the seller must pay the buyer the full notional value of the reference obligation. Each party to a credit default swap is subject to the credit risk of its counterparty (the risk that its counterparty may be unwilling or unable to perform its obligations on the swap as they come due). The value of the credit default swap to each party will change based on changes in the actual or perceived creditworthiness of the underlying issuer.
A protection buyer may lose its investment and recover nothing should an event of default not occur. A Fund may seek to realize gains on its credit default swap positions, or limit losses on its positions, by selling those positions in the secondary market. There can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist at any given time for any particular credit default swap or for credit default swaps generally.
The market for credit default swaps has become more volatile in recent years as the creditworthiness of certain counterparties has been questioned and/or downgraded. The parties to a credit default swap may be required to post collateral to each other. If a Fund posts initial or periodic collateral to its counterparty, it may not be able to recover that collateral from the counterparty in accordance with the terms of the swap. In addition, if a Fund receives collateral from its counterparty, it may be delayed or prevented from realizing on the collateral in the event of the insolvency or bankruptcy of the counterparty. A Fund may exit its obligations under a credit default swap only by terminating the contract and paying applicable breakage fees, or by entering into an offsetting credit default swap position, which may cause the Fund to incur more losses.
For centrally cleared swaps, the Schedules of Investments include the cumulative appreciation (depreciation), while only the current day’s variation margin is reported within the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For credit default swap contracts, an up-front payment received by a Fund is recorded as a liability and an upfront payment made by a Fund is recorded as an asset on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Upfront payments are amortized over the term of the contract. If there is no upfront payment or receipt, market value will equal unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Periodic payments received (paid) by a Fund are recorded as realized gains (losses) from the expiration or closing of swap contracts on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
The credit default contracts are marked to market daily and the change, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Changes in market value are accounted for as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized. Upon the occurrence of a credit event, the difference between the par value and market value of the reference obligation, net of any proportional amount of the up-front payment, is recorded as a realized gain or loss on swap contracts in the Statements of Operations.
Each Fund's risk of loss associated with these instruments may exceed their fair value, as recorded in the Schedules of Investments. Credit default swap contracts outstanding, including their respective notional amounts at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of credit default contracts on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of period end are disclosed in the Schedules of Investments and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For credit default contracts on asset-backed securities and credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.
Contracts for Differences: The Morningstar Alternatives Fund may enter into Contracts for Differences (“CFDs”). CFDs are leveraged derivative instruments that allow a Fund to take a position on the change in the market price of an underlying asset, such as a stock, or the value of an index or currency exchange rate. With a short CFD, a Fund is seeking to profit from falls in the market price of the asset. CFDs are subject to liquidity risk because the liquidity of CFDs is based on the liquidity of the underlying instrument, and are subject to counterparty risk, i.e., the risk that the counterparty to the CFD transaction may be unable or unwilling to make payments or to otherwise honor its financial obligations under the terms of the contract. It is also possible that the market price of the CFD will move between the time the order is placed by a Fund and when it is executed by the issuer, which can result in the trade being executed at a less favorable price. CFDs, like many other derivative instruments, involve the risk that, if the derivative security declines in value, additional margin would be required to maintain the margin level. The seller may require a Fund to deposit additional sums to cover this decline in value, and the margin call may be at short notice. If additional margin is not provided in time, the seller may liquidate the positions at a loss for which a Fund is liable. The potential for margin calls and large losses are much greater in CFDs than in other leveraged products. Most CFDs are traded OTC. CFDs are not registered with the SEC or any U.S. regulator, and are not subject to U.S. regulation. In a short position, a Fund will receive or pay an amount based upon the amount, if any, by which the notional amount of the CFD would have decreased or increased in value had it sold the particular stocks short, less the dividends that would have been paid on those stocks, plus a floating rate of interest on the notional amount of the CFD. All of these components are reflected in the market value of the CFD.

Master Netting Agreements: Certain Funds are parties to master netting arrangements with counterparties (“Master Agreements”). Master Agreements govern the terms of certain like transactions, and reduce the counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions by specifying payment netting mechanisms across multiple transactions and providing standardization that improves legal certainty. Since different types of transactions have different mechanics and are sometimes traded by different legal entities of a particular counterparty organization, each type of transaction may be covered by a different Master Agreement, resulting in the need for multiple Master Agreements with a counterparty and its affiliates.
As the Master Agreements are specific to unique operations of different asset types, they allow the Funds to i) close out and net their total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single Master Agreement with a counterparty, ii) exit transactions through means other than sale, such as through a negotiated agreement with the Funds’ counterparty, a transfer to another party, or close out of the position through execution of an offsetting transaction.
Master Repurchase Agreements govern repurchase, or reverse repurchase transactions, relating to government bonds between certain Funds and select counterparties. Master Repurchase Agreements maintain provisions for initiation, income payments, events of default, and maintenance of collateral.
Prime Broker Arrangements may be entered into to facilitate execution and/or clearing of equities, bonds, equity options or short sales of securities between certain Funds and selected counterparties. These arrangements provide financing terms for such transactions and include guidelines surrounding the rights, obligations, and other events, including, but not limited to, margin, execution, and settlement. These agreements maintain provisions for payments, maintenance of collateral, events of default, and termination. Margin and other assets delivered as collateral are typically held by the prime broker and offset any obligations due to the prime broker.
Customer Account Agreements govern cleared derivatives transactions and exchange-traded futures and options transactions. Upon entering into an exchange-traded or centrally cleared derivative contract, the Funds are required to deposit with the relevant clearing organization cash or securities, which is referred to as the initial margin. Securities deposited as initial margin are designated on the Schedules of Investments and cash deposited is recorded as Deposits with brokers for centrally cleared swaps and Deposits with brokers for futures contracts on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For exchange-traded futures or centrally cleared swaps, initial margin is posted, and daily changes in fair value are recorded as a payable or receivable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Variation margin on centrally cleared swaps and Variation margin on futures contracts. Variation margin is determined separately for exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps and cannot be netted.
International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes (“ISDA Master Agreements”) govern OTC derivative transactions entered into between certain Funds and a counterparty. ISDA Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, netting of settlement payments, agreements to deliver supporting documents, collateral transfer and events of default or termination. Events of termination include a decline in a Fund’s net assets below a specified threshold over a certain period of time or a decline in the counterparty’s long-term and short-term credit ratings below a specified level. In each case, upon occurrence, the other party may elect to terminate early and cause
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
settlement of all OTC contracts outstanding, including the payment of any losses and costs resulting from such early termination, as reasonably determined by the terminating party. Any decision by a party to elect early termination could be material to the financial statements and impact a Fund’s future derivative activity.
Collateral and margin requirements differ according to the terms of each type of Master Agreement. Collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure net of existing collateral already in place governed under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specified threshold. Collateral can be in the form of cash, debt securities issued by the U.S. government, money market funds and other securities as agreed to by a Fund and the applicable counterparty, or as permitted by the clearing house or exchange.
Collateral pledged by a Fund for OTC derivatives pursuant to a Master Agreement is segregated by the Fund’s custodian and identified as an asset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities either as a component of Investments in non-affiliates, at value (securities) or in Due from broker (cash). Segregation of a Fund’s collateral in the custodian account helps mitigate counterparty risk.
Collateral posted for the benefit of a Fund pursuant to a Master Agreement is held by a custodian of the Fund. Amounts which can be invested or repledged, are presented in each Fund's Schedule of Investments. Collateral received is reflected as a liability within Due to broker in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
The Funds use derivative instruments as part of their principal investment strategy to achieve their investment objectives. The Funds’ derivative contracts are not accounted for as hedging instruments under GAAP.

The differences between book basis and tax basis appreciation (depreciation) on investments is primarily attributable to wash sale loss deferrals, mark to market on credit default swaps, contracts for difference, futures contracts, foreign exchange contracts, passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”), 305(c) deemed dividends, straddle loss deferrals, investment in interest only ("IO") securities and contingent payment debt instruments ("CPDIs"), and timing of income recognition from Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”).

Income dividends and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations. Such amounts may differ from income and capital gains recorded in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the Funds may periodically make reclassifications among certain of their capital accounts to reflect differences between financial reporting and federal income tax basis distributions. These reclassifications are reported in order to reflect the tax treatment for certain permanent differences that exist between income tax regulations and U.S. GAAP. These reclassifications have no impact on the total net assets or the net asset values per share of the Funds. At April 30, 2022, the following reclassification was recorded:
Fund | Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Losses) | Paid-in Capital |
Morningstar Defensive Bond Fund | $262,291 | $(262,291) |

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022 were as follows:

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. Capital loss carry forwards with no expiration will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses.
At April 30, 2022, the Morningstar Defensive Bond Fund had capital losses incurred that will be carried forward indefinitely under the provisions of the Act in the amount of $261,127 for short-term capital loss carry-forward and $1,303,769 for long-term capital loss carry-forward.
For the period subsequent to October 31, 2021, through the fiscal year ended April 30, 2022, the following Funds incurred net capital losses and/or late year ordinary losses for which the Funds intend to treat as having been incurred in the following fiscal year:

10. Principal Risks and Concentrations
Active Management Risk: The Funds are actively managed with discretion and may underperform market indexes or other mutual funds with similar investment objectives. The Funds' performance depends heavily on Morningstar’s skill and judgments around allocating assets to subadvisers, open- and closed-end investment companies, ETFs and individual securities. A Fund could experience losses if these judgments prove to be incorrect.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Absolute Return Strategy Risk: In seeking low sensitivity to traditional U.S. asset classes, the Alternatives Fund uses an absolute return strategy and a benchmark index of cash-like instruments. Unlike most equity funds, the Fund should not be expected to benefit from broad equity market returns, and unlike traditional bond funds, it may not generate current income or benefit when interest rates decline.
Asset Allocation Risk: In an attempt to invest in areas that look most attractive on a valuation basis, the Funds may favor asset classes or market segments that cause the Funds to underperform their benchmarks.
Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO) Risk: In addition to the typical risks associated with fixed-income securities and asset-backed securities, CDOs carry additional risks including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the risk that the collateral may default or decline in value or be downgraded, if rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization; (iii) the Fund may invest in tranches of CDOs that are subordinate to other tranches; (iv) the structure and complexity of the transaction and the legal documents could lead to disputes among investors regarding the characterization of proceeds; (v) the investment return achieved by a Fund could be significantly different than those predicted by financial models; (vi) the lack of a readily available secondary market for CDOs; (vii) the risk of forced “fire sale” liquidation due to technical defaults such as coverage test failures; and (viii) the CDO’s manager may perform poorly. In addition, investments in CDOs may be characterized by a Fund as illiquid investments.
Call Risk: During periods of falling interest rates, an issuer may call or repay a higher-yielding fixed income security before its maturity date, forcing a Fund to reinvest in fixed income securities with lower interest rates than the original obligations.
Consumer Cyclical Sector Risk: The consumer cyclical sector consists of companies that are involved in areas such as the production, manufacture, distribution, or sale of consumer goods and services that have cyclical characteristics, such as automotive manufacturers, retail companies, and housing-related companies. Consumer cyclical companies rely heavily on business cycles and economic conditions. The consumer cyclical industry can be significantly affected by several factors, including, without limitation, the performance of domestic and international economies, exchange rates, changing consumer tastes and trends, marketing campaigns, cyclical revenue generation, consumer confidence, commodity price volatility, labor relations, interest rates, import and export controls, intense competition, technological developments and government regulation.
Consumer Noncyclical Sector Risk: The consumer noncyclical sector consists of companies that are involved in areas such as the production, manufacture, distribution, or sale of consumer goods and services that have non-cyclical characteristics, such as food and beverage, household goods, personal products, and non-discretionary retail. These companies may be adversely impacted by changes in domestic and global economic conditions, natural and man-made disasters, political, social or labor unrest, consumer confidence and preferences, disposable household income and consumer spending, product cycles, marketing, demographics, production spending, competition, government regulations and factors impacting the supply, demand and prices of raw materials.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Convertible Securities Risk: Convertible securities are generally debt securities or preferred stocks that may be converted into common stock. The value of a convertible security is influenced by changes in interest rates, with investment value declining as interest rates increase and increasing as interest rates decline. The credit standing of the issuer and other factors also may have an effect on the convertible security’s investment value.
Credit Risk: Issuers of fixed-income securities could default or be downgraded if they fail to make required payments of principal or interest.
Currency Risk: Because certain Funds may invest in securities of non-U.S. issuers, changes in currency exchange rates could hurt performance. Morningstar or a subadviser may decide not to hedge, or may not be successful in hedging, its currency exposure.
Cybersecurity Risk: A Fund, like all companies, may be susceptible to operational and information security risks. Cybersecurity failures or breaches of a Fund or its service providers or the issuers of securities in which a Fund invests, have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, and the Funds and their shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result
Derivatives Risk: A derivative is an instrument with a value based on the performance of an underlying currency, security, index, or other reference asset. Derivatives involve risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks of investing in more traditional investments. Derivatives involve costs, may create leverage, and may be illiquid, volatile, or difficult to value. In addition, derivatives could cause losses if the counterparty to the transaction does not perform as promised. The investment results achieved by using derivatives may not match or fully offset changes in the value of the underlying currency, security, index, or other reference asset that a Fund was attempting to hedge or the investment opportunity it was trying to pursue.
Dollar Rolls Risk: Dollar rolls involve the risk that the market value of the securities that a Fund is committed to buy may decline below the price of the securities the Fund has sold. These transactions may involve leverage.
Emerging-Markets Risk: Emerging-market countries may have relatively unstable governments and economies based on only a few industries, which can cause greater instability. These countries are also more likely to experience higher levels of inflation, deflation, or currency devaluations, which could hurt their economies and securities markets.
European Market Risk: Adverse economic and political events in Europe may cause a Fund’s investments to decline in value. Member states of the European Union (“EU”) are subject to restrictions on inflation rates, deficits, interest rates, debt levels and fiscal and monetary controls, each of which may significantly affect every country in Europe. Decreasing imports or exports, changes in governmental or EU regulations on trade, changes in the exchange rate of the euro, the default or threat of default by an EU member country on its sovereign debt, and recessions in an EU member country may have a significant adverse effect on the economies of other EU member countries. In addition, the risk of investing in Europe may be heightened due to Russia's military invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the United Kingdom’s departure from the EU on January 31, 2020. The country’s departure (known as “Brexit”) sparked depreciation in the value of the British pound, short-term declines in the stock markets and heightened risk of continued economic volatility worldwide. While it is not possible to determine the precise impact these events may have on a Fund, during
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
this period and beyond, the impact on the United Kingdom and European economies and the broader global economy could be significant, resulting in negative impacts, such as increased volatility and illiquidity, and potentially lower economic growth, on markets in the United Kingdom, Europe and globally, which may adversely affect the value of a Fund’s investments.
Financials Sector Risk: Financial services companies are subject to extensive government regulation and, as a result, their profitability may be affected by new regulations or regulatory interpretations. Unstable interest rates can have a disproportionate effect on the financial services sector and financial services companies whose securities the Fund may purchase may themselves have concentrated portfolios, which makes them vulnerable to economic conditions that affect that sector. Financial services companies have also been affected by increased competition, which could adversely affect the profitability or viability of such companies.
Floating-Rate Notes Risk: Floating-rate notes are subject to credit risk and interest-rate risk. The interest rate of a floating rate instrument may be based on a known lending rate, such as a bank’s prime rate, and is reset whenever such rate is adjusted. The interest rate on a variable-rate demand note is reset at specified intervals at a market rate. Some floating- and variable-rate securities may be callable by the issuer, meaning that they can be paid off before their maturity date and the proceeds may be required to be invested in lower yielding securities that reduce a Fund’s income.
Foreign Securities Risk: Securities of non-U.S. issuers may be less liquid, more volatile, and harder to value than U.S. securities. They may also be subject to political, economic, and regulatory risks, and market instability.
Geographic Concentration Risk: To the extent that a Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in a particular country, region or continent, economic, political, social and environmental conditions in such country, region or continent will have a greater effect on the Fund’s performance than they would in a more geographically diversified equity fund.
High-Yield Risk: High-yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as junk bonds) are subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risks. High-yield securities are considered speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments.
Indexed and Inverse Securities Risk: Indexed and inverse securities provide a potential return based on a particular index of value or interest rates. A Fund’s return on these securities will be subject to risk with respect to the value of the particular index. These securities are subject to leverage risk and correlation risk. Certain indexed and inverse securities have greater sensitivity to changes in interest rates or index levels than other securities, and the Fund’s investment in such instruments may decline significantly in value if interest rates or index levels move in a way Fund management does not anticipate.
Interest-Rate Risk: The value of fixed-income securities, as well as some income-oriented equity securities that pay dividends, will typically decline when interest rates rise. A Fund may be subject to a greater risk or rising interest rates due to the current period of low interest rates.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Investment Company and ETF Risk: An investment company, including an open or closed-end mutual fund or ETF, in which a Fund invests may not achieve its investment objective or execute its investment strategies effectively, or a large purchase or redemption activity by shareholders might negatively affect the value of the shares. A Fund must also pay its pro rata portion of an investment company’s fees and expenses. Shares of ETFs trade on exchanges and may be bought and sold at market value. ETF shares may be thinly traded, making it difficult for a Fund to sell shares at a particular time or an anticipated price. ETF shares may also trade at a premium or discount to the net asset value of the ETF; at times, this premium or discount could be significant.
LIBOR Risk: Certain instruments in which a Fund, or the underlying funds in which a Fund invests, may utilize the London Interbank Overnight Rate (LIBOR) as a reference rate for various rate calculations. The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, phased out certain LIBOR at the end of 2021 and intends to phase out the remaining LIBOR rate in 2023. The potential effect of a transition away from LIBOR on the investments held by a Fund or underlying funds cannot yet be determined. To the extent that a Fund or underlying funds have exposure to contracts or instruments based on LIBOR that do not include fallback provisions, those investments may have an increased risk of becoming illiquid.
Long/Short Strategy Risk: While the Alternatives Fund may invest in long positions and short positions, there is the risk that the investments will not perform as expected and losses on one type of position could more than offset gains on the other, or the Fund could lose money on both positions, if the portfolio managers judge the market incorrectly.
Market Risk: The value of stocks and other securities can be highly volatile and prices may fluctuate widely, which means you should expect a wide range of returns and could lose money, even over a long time period. Various economic, industry, regulatory, political or other factors (such as natural disasters, epidemics and pandemics, war, terrorism, conflicts or social unrest) may disrupt U.S. and world economies and can dramatically affect markets generally, certain industry sectors, and/or individual companies. The global pandemic outbreak of an infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 has resulted in substantial market volatility, market closures and dislocations, liquidity constraints, supply chain issues, increased trading costs and global business disruption, impacting the global economy and the financial health of individual companies in significant and unforeseen ways. The duration and ongoing future impact of COVID-19 (or other future epidemics or pandemics) are unpredictable, and may exacerbate other types of risks that apply to a Fund and negatively impact a Fund's performance and the value of your investment in a Fund.
Also recently, Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine has significantly amplified already existing geopolitical tensions among Russia, Ukraine, Europe, NATO, and North America. As a result, the U.S., the European Union and other countries have instituted or may in the future institute sanctions against Russia, and could institute broader sanctions on Russia, including banning Russia from global payment systems that facilitate cross‐border payments. These sanctions and any additional sanctions, other intergovernmental actions, or actions by businesses and consumers that may be undertaken against Russia in the future may result in the devaluation of Russian currency, a downgrade in the country’s credit rating, and a decline in the value and liquidity of Russian securities. Any or all of these potential results could have an adverse/recessionary effect on Russia’s economy. Russia’s military incursion and the resulting sanctions could also adversely affect global energy and financial markets and thus could affect the value of a Fund’s investments, even beyond any direct exposure the Fund may have to Russian issuers or the adjoining geographic regions. The extent and duration of
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
the military action, resulting sanctions and resulting future market disruptions, are impossible to predict, but could be significant. Any such disruptions caused by Russian military action, resulting sanctions or other actions (including cyberattacks) may magnify the impact of other risks described in this report.
Master Limited Partnership (MLP) Risk: MLPs are subject to, among other risks, cash flow risks, tax risk, deferred tax risk and capital market risk. Cash flow risk is the risk that MLPs will not make distributions to holders (including us) at anticipated levels or that such distributions will not have the expected tax character. MLPs also are subject to tax risk, which is the risk that an MLP might lose its partnership status for tax purposes. Deferred tax risk is the risk that we incur a current tax liability on that portion of an MLP’s income and gains that is not offset by tax deductions and losses. Capital markets risk is the risk that MLPs will be unable to raise capital to meet their obligations as they come due or execute their growth strategies, complete future acquisitions, take advantage of other business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: Mortgage- and asset-backed securities represent interests in “pools” of mortgages or other assets, including consumer loans or receivables held in trust. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities are subject to credit and interest rate risks, as well as extension and prepayment risks:
Extension Risk: Rising interest rates tend to extend the duration of mortgage-related securities, making them more sensitive to changes in interest rates. As a result, in a period of rising interest rates, if the Fund holds mortgage-related securities, it may exhibit additional volatility.
Prepayment Risk: When interest rates decline, the value of mortgage-related securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed-income securities because borrowers may pay off their mortgages sooner than expected. In addition, the potential impact of prepayment on the price of asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities may be difficult to predict and result in greater volatility.
These securities also are subject to risk of default on the underlying mortgage or asset, particularly during periods of economic downturn. Small movements in interest rates (both increases and decreases) may quickly and significantly reduce the value of certain mortgage-backed securities. TBA (or “to be announced”) commitments are forward agreements for the purchase or sale of securities, including mortgage-backed securities for a fixed price, with payment and delivery on an agreed upon future settlement date. The specific securities to be delivered are not identified at the trade date. However, delivered securities must meet specified terms, including issuer, rate and mortgage terms.
In addition, one of the major economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic has been loss of income, which has left many unable to repay their financial obligations, including their mortgage payments. It is difficult to predict how the effects of COVID-19, or government initiatives relating to COVID-19, may affect the federally backed mortgage market, the U.S. mortgage market as a whole and the price of securities relating to the mortgage markets, and in turn, a Fund’s investments.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Multimanager and Subadviser Selection Risk: To a significant extent, a Fund’s performance depends on Morningstar’s skill in selecting subadvisers and each subadviser’s skill in selecting securities and executing its strategy. Subadviser strategies may occasionally be out of favor and subadvisers may underperform relative to their peers or benchmarks.
Municipal Securities Risk: The municipal securities market could be significantly affected by negative political and legislative changes, as well as uncertainties related to taxation or the rights of municipal security holders. Changes in the financial health of a municipality may make it difficult for it to pay interest and principal when due.
Portfolio Turnover Risk: Certain Funds may engage in active and frequent trading of their portfolio securities. Such a strategy often involves higher transaction costs, including brokerage commissions and dealer mark-ups, and may increase the amount of capital gains (in particular, short-term gains) realized by a Fund. Shareholders may pay tax on such capital gains. These effects of higher than normal portfolio turnover may adversely affect Fund performance.
Preferred Stock Risk: Preferred stocks are subject to issuer-specific and market risks applicable generally to equity securities, however, unlike common stocks, participation in the growth of an issuer may be limited. Distributions on preferred stocks are generally payable at the discretion of the issuer’s board of directors, after the company makes required payments to holders of its bonds and other debt securities. For this reason, the value of preferred stock will usually react more strongly than bonds and other debt securities to actual or perceived changes in the company’s financial condition or prospects. Preferred stock of smaller companies may be more vulnerable to adverse developments than preferred stock of larger companies. Preferred stocks may be less liquid than common stocks. Preferred shareholders may have certain rights if distributions are not paid but generally have no legal recourse against the issuer and may suffer a loss of value if distributions are not paid.
Private Placements Risk: Securities that are purchased in private placements are subject to restrictions on resale as a matter of contract or under federal securities laws. Because there may be relatively few potential purchasers for these investments, especially under adverse circumstances, a Fund could find it more difficult to sell private placements at an advisable time or attractive price. Additionally, such securities may not be listed on an exchange and may have no active trading market. Accordingly, many private placement securities may be illiquid. At times, it may also be more difficult to determine the fair value of such securities for purposes of computing a Fund’s net asset value.
REITs and Other Real Estate Companies Risk: REITs and other real estate company securities are subject to, among other risks: declines in property values; defaults by mortgagors or other borrowers and tenants; increases in property taxes and other operating expenses; overbuilding in their sector of the real estate market; fluctuations in rental income; changes in interest rates; lack of availability of mortgage funds or financing; extended vacancies of properties, especially during economic downturns; changes in tax and regulatory requirements; losses due to environmental liabilities; or casualty or condemnation losses.
Reverse Repurchase Agreements Risk: Reverse repurchase agreements involve the sale of securities held by a Fund with an agreement to repurchase the securities at an agreed-upon price, date and interest payment. Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the other party may fail to return the securities in a timely
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
manner or at all. A Fund could lose money if it is unable to recover the securities and the value of the collateral held by the Fund, including the value of the investments made with cash collateral, is less than the value of securities. These events could also trigger adverse tax consequences to the Fund.
Risks of Investing in Asian Issuers: Investments in securities of Asian issuers involve risks and special considerations not typically associated with investments in the U.S. securities markets. Certain Asian economies have experienced over-extension of credit, currency devaluations and restrictions, high unemployment, high inflation, rapid fluctuations in inflation and interest rates, decreased exports, economic recessions and political unrest. Economic and political events in any one Asian country can have a significant effect on the entire Asian region as well as on major trading partners outside Asia, and any adverse effect on some or all of the Asian countries and regions in which a Fund invests. The securities markets in some Asian economies are relatively underdeveloped and may subject a Fund to a higher degree of risk. To the extent a Fund invests in securities of companies located in or operating in China, the inability of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) to inspect audit work papers and practices of PCAOB-registered accounting firms in China with respect to their audit work of U.S. reporting companies may impose significant additional risks associated with investments in China; therefore, there is no guarantee that the quality of financial reporting or the audits conducted by audit firms of such issuers meet PCAOB standards.
Risks of Investing in Latin American Issuers: The economies of certain Latin American countries have experienced high interest rates, economic volatility, inflation, currency devaluations, government debt defaults and high unemployment rates. Certain Latin American countries have experienced periods of political and economic instability and social unrest in the past. International economic conditions, particularly those in the U.S., Europe and Asia, as well as world prices for oil and other commodities may also influence the development of Latin American economies. These risks, among others, may adversely affect the value of a Fund’s investments.
Short Sales Risk: Short sales involve selling a security a Fund does not own in anticipation that the security’s price will decline. To complete the transaction, the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. The Fund is then obligated to replace the security borrowed by purchasing the security at the market price at the time of replacement. Short sales are highly speculative and may subject a Fund to, at least theoretically, unlimited risk due to the fact that the value of the security underlying the short sale may appreciate indefinitely. Short sales also create leverage which increases a Fund’s exposure to the market.
Smaller Companies Risk: The stocks of small- or mid-sized companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements than stocks of larger, more established companies. Small companies may have limited product lines or financial resources, or may be dependent upon a small or inexperienced management group, and their securities may trade less frequently and in lower volume than the securities of larger companies, which could lead to higher transaction costs.
Sovereign Debt Securities Risk: Sovereign debt instruments are subject to the risk that a governmental entity may delay or refuse to pay interest or repay principal on its sovereign debt, due, for example, to cash flow problems, insufficient foreign currency reserves, political considerations, the relative size of the governmental entity’s debt position in relation to the economy, or the failure to put in place economic reforms required by the International Monetary Fund or other multilateral agencies.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Supranational Entities Risk: A Fund may invest in obligations issued or guaranteed by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (the “World Bank”). The government members, or “stockholders,” usually make initial capital contributions to the World Bank and in many cases are committed to make additional capital contributions if the World Bank is unable to repay its borrowings. There is no guarantee that one or more stockholders of the World Bank will continue to make any necessary additional capital contributions. If such contributions are not made, the entity may be unable to pay interest or repay principal on its debt securities, and the Fund may lose money on such investments.
Technology Sector Risk: Securities issued by technology companies have historically been volatile due to the rapid pace of product change and development within the sector. Technology companies are subject to intense competition, rapid obsolescence of their products or lack of commercial success, issues with obtaining financing or regulatory approvals, product incompatibility, delays in or cancellation of the release of anticipated products, and high required corporate capital expenditure for research and development of new products. The activities of these companies may also be adversely affected by changes in government regulations, worldwide technological developments, and changes in consumer preferences or investor perception of a company and/or its products or services.
U.S. Government Securities Risk: U.S. government obligations have different levels of credit support and, therefore, different degrees of credit risk. The U.S. government does not guarantee the market value of the securities it issues, so those values may fluctuate. Like most fixed-income securities, the prices of government securities typically fall when interest rates increase and rise when interest rates decline. In addition, the payment obligations on certain securities in which a Fund may invest, including securities issued by certain U.S. Government agencies and U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, are not guaranteed by the U.S. Government or supported by the full faith and credit of the United States.
When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities Risk: When-issued and delayed delivery securities and forward commitments involve the risk that the security a Fund buys will lose value prior to its delivery. There also is the risk that the security will not be issued or that the other party to the transaction will not meet its obligation. If this occurs, the Fund may lose both the investment opportunity for the assets it set aside to pay for the security and any gain in the security’s price.
11. Principal Ownership
As of October 31, 2022, the Funds had omnibus accounts owning more than 5% of the total shares outstanding of each Fund as follows:

Investment activities of these shareholders may have a material effect on the Funds.
12. Line of Credit
The Funds have a $50 million line of credit agreement with Northern Trust. Borrowings are made solely to facilitate the handling of redemptions or unusual or unanticipated short-term cash requirements. Because several Funds participate and collateral requirements apply, there is no assurance that an individual Fund will have access to the entire $50 million at any particular time. Interest is charged to each Fund based on its borrowings at an amount above the Federal Funds rate. In addition, an administration fee of $10,000 is payable annually and allocated among the Funds based on net assets.
During the six months ended October 31, 2022, the Funds made no borrowings against the line of credit.
13. Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated subsequent events for the Funds through the date this report was issued.
In October 2022, the SEC adopted rule and form amendments to require mutual funds to transmit concise and visually engaging streamlined annual and semiannual reports to shareholders that highlight key information deemed important for retail investors to assess and monitor their fund investments. Other information, including financial statements, will no longer appear in funds' streamlined shareholder reports but must be available online, delivered free of charge upon request, and filed on a semiannual basis on Form N-CSR. The rule and form amendments are effective January 24, 2023. The compliance date is 18 months following the effective date. At this time, management is evaluating the impact of these rule and form amendment changes on the content of the current shareholder report and the newly created annual and semiannual streamlined shareholder reports. Shareholders should expect that the streamlined shareholder reports transmitted to them after the compliance date of the rule will be different in appearance and content than those transmitted to them today.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
As a shareholder of a series within Morningstar Funds Trust, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees, administration, custody, sub-accounting, trustees and other fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of a six month period and held for the entire period, May 1, 2022 through October 31, 2022.
Actual Expenses
The three columns for each Fund in the table under the "Actual" heading provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns, 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 second column for your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The last three columns for each Fund in the table under the "Hypothetical (5% return)" heading provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the last three columns for each Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| | Actual | Hypothetical (5% return) |

Liquidity Risk Management Program
Consistent with Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as amended), Morningstar Funds Trust (the “Trust”) has established a written liquidity risk management program (“Program”) to govern the approach in managing liquidity risk within each series of the Trust (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). For purposes of the Program, liquidity risk means the risk that a Fund could not meet requests to redeem shares issued by the fund without significant dilution of remaining investors’ interests in the Fund.
The Program is overseen by the Liquidity Committee which is comprised of representatives of the Funds' investment adviser, Morningstar Investment Management LLC (“MIM”) and certain officers of the Trust (e.g., the Trust’s Principal Financial Officer). The Funds’ Board of Trustees (“Board”) has approved the Program on behalf of the Trust as well as the designation of the Liquidity Committee to oversee the Program. In administering the Program, the Liquidity Committee seeks input from MIM and/or subadviser(s) when such input is deemed necessary or appropriate by the Liquidity Committee.
In general, liquidity risk is managed taking into account the investment strategy, liquidity profile, and redemption policy and history of a Fund, with the objective of maintaining a level of liquidity that is appropriate considering the Fund’s obligations to current and future shareholders. Liquidity management for each Fund is based on an assessment of the liquidity of each portfolio asset, considering the time required to liquidate an asset and the price or value at which those assets can be liquidated, in accordance with the requirements of Rule 22e-4.
At a meeting of the Board held on September 20, 2022, a written report from the Liquidity Committee was provided to the Board addressing the operation of the Program and assessing its adequacy and effectiveness of implementation (the “Report”) for the annual period from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 (the “Reporting Period���).
During the Reporting Period, each Fund maintained a high level of liquidity and was deemed to primarily hold assets that are defined as highly liquid investments. As a result, no Fund was required to establish or adopted a Highly Liquid Investment Minimum during the Reporting Period.
The Report did not identify any significant liquidity events that materially affected the performance of any Fund or its ability to timely meet redemptions without dilution to existing shareholders during the Reporting Period. In addition, all Funds complied with the 15% limitation on illiquid investments during the Reporting Period, consistent with the Program and the relevant requirements of Rule 22e-4.
The Liquidity Committee has determined that the Program operated adequately and effectively to manage each Fund’s liquidity risk during the Reporting Period and is reasonably designed to manage each Fund’s liquidity risk. However, please note, there can be no assurance that the Program will achieve its objectives in the future. Please refer to your Fund's prospectus for more information regarding the Fund's exposure to liquidity risk and other principal risks to which an investment in the Fund may be subject.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements (unaudited)
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Morningstar Funds (the “Trust”) on June 22, 2022 (the “June 2022 Meeting”), Morningstar Investment Management LLC (“MIM”) recommended that the Board approve an amendment to the Subadvisory Agreement (the “New Subadvisory Agreement”) by and among the Trust, MIM and TCW Investment Management Company LLC (“TCW”), on behalf of the Multisector Bond Fund (the “Fund”). MIM’s recommendation to amend the subadvisory relationship with TCW was based on a number of factors, including (among others, described below) that the terms of the proposed New Subadvisory Agreement were in all material respects identical to the Original Subadvisory Agreement that was renewed by the Board at the meeting held on March 9, 2022 (the “March Meeting”), except with respect to the reduction in the management fee. In order to permit TCW to continue to provide investment advisory services to the Fund, the Board considered and approved the New Subadvisory Agreement, to become effective June 22, 2022.
The material factors considered and the conclusions that formed the bases of the Board’s approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement are described below. This summary describes the most significant, but not all, of the factors evaluated by the Board. The Board did not quantify or assign relative weights to the factors. Each member of the Board may have assigned different weights to the factors.
In considering the approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement, the Board was able to draw on its knowledge of the Trust, the Fund, MIM, and TCW. The Board considered the recent renewal of the Original Subadvisory Agreement, and considered the nature, extent and quality of services provided by TCW, its investment performance with regard to the management of its allocated portion of the Fund, and the relevant subadvisory fees.
The Board reviewed memoranda and supporting documentation provided by MIM regarding the management fee change, as well as copies of proposed New Subadvisory Agreement. The Board noted that New Subadvisory Agreement provided for the same services as the Original Subadvisory Agreement and that the New Subadvisory Agreement was in all material respects identical to the Original Subadvisory Agreement, except with respect to the reduction in the management fee. Given that the services provided under the New Subadvisory Agreement were identical to the services and fees under the Original Subadvisory Agreement, the Board’s deliberations at the March Meeting remained relevant.
At the March Meeting, the Board considered multiple factors that they deemed relevant, including, but not limited to:
• The form of the Original Subadvisory Agreement with TCW.
• The investment performance of the Fund and the performance of TCW in achieving this performance.
• Whether the Fund had operated in accordance with its investment objective.
• The fairness of the compensation under the Fund's investment advisory agreement and the Original Subadvisory Agreement.
• The expense ratio to be borne by shareholders, considering the combined effect of the pricing structure of the Fund and existing fee waivers and expense reimbursements.
• MIM’s investment principles.

Board Approval of Investment Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements (unaudited) (continued)
• The nature, extent and quality of services that MIM and TCW provided and would be expected to provide to the Fund.
• The background, experience, personnel, operations, technology, policies, procedures and compliance functions of MIM and TCW, including their experience as managers of other funds and accounts, their investment management approaches and resources, their financial condition and their reputation in the industry.
• The compatibility of TCW’s operations, policies, procedures and compliance functions with those of MIM and other service providers to the Fund.
• The Trust's Chief Compliance Officer’s review of the compliance programs and capabilities of MIM and TCW, including the policies and procedures in place to address actual and potential conflicts of interest.
• MIM’s risk management program, especially those aspects of the program related to selecting and overseeing TCW.
• The use of derivatives and other complex instruments to carry out the Fund’s investment goals.
• TCW's risk management program.
• Profitability matters and economies of scale.
MIM recommended the approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement, pursuant to which TCW would continue to serve as a subadviser of the Fund. The approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement was recommended by MIM because, among other factors, (i) the reduction in management fees was not expected to have a material effect on the nature, extent or quality of the services provided by TCW to the Fund; (ii) the TCW personnel who have been responsible for managing the portion of the Fund allocated to TCW would continue to serve in their respective capacities; (iii) the terms of the New Subadvisory Agreement were identical, in all material respects other than the reduction in management fee, to the Original Subadvisory Agreement that was approved by the Board at the March Meeting; and (iv) TCW’s historical investment performance with respect to its management of the Fund had been acceptable.
Morningstar Funds Trust October 31, 2022 (unaudited)
Board Approval of Investment Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements (unaudited) (continued)
Significant factors considered by the Board included the following:
Services Provided
The Board considered their analysis at the March Meeting of the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by TCW to the Fund. At the March Meeting, the Board considered the Fund’s investment goal, MIM’s and TCW’s investment strategy to achieve that goal, and MIM’s and TCW’s success in achieving, and ability to continue to achieve, that investment strategy. The Board also took note of the responsibilities that the Subadviser has with respect to the portion of the Fund’s assets allocated to TCW. The Board noted their consideration at the March Meeting of the other investment advisory services offered by TCW and reviewed the allocation of assets and expenses among those services, as well as its fees, the reasons for differences in fees and any potential conflicts in connection with providing these services. The Board considered MIM’s rationale for recommending the continued retention of TCW, and that the management fee adjustment was not expected to have a material effect on the nature, extent or quality of the services provided by TCW to the Fund.
Based on their consideration and review of the foregoing factors, the Board concluded that they were satisfied with the nature, quality and extent of the overall services provided and to be provided by TCW. The Board was confident in the abilities of TCW to continue to implement the respective investment strategy of the Fund and to continue to provide quality services to the Fund.
Investment Performance
The Board considered their analysis at the March Meeting regarding TCW’s investment performance. The Board considered their prior comparison of this performance to peer groups and relevant benchmarks. The Board concluded that their prior consideration of the performance record for TCW in managing the Fund supported a decision to approve the New Subadvisory Agreement.
The Cost of Services and Fund Expenses
The Board considered their analysis at the March Meeting regarding the cost of services provided and to be provided by MIM and TCW and the losses realized by MIM and TCW from a relationship with the Fund. At the March Meeting the Board had considered profitability information, expenses absorbed by MIM through fee waivers and reimbursements, comparative fee data, and actual and potential benefits (often called “fall-out benefits”) that accrue to MIM and TCW from managing the Fund. The Board further considered the profitability information provided at the June 2022 Meeting and such updated profitability did not change their conclusions from the March Meeting. The Board noted that the subadvisory fees are paid to TCW by MIM and are not additional fees borne by the Fund, and that these fees were the product of arms-length negotiations between MIM and TCW. The Board considered that the subadvisory fees set forth under the proposed New Subadvisory Agreement a lower management fee would apply to the first $500 million in assets of the Fund managed by TCW compared to the management fee schedule set forth under the Original Subadvisory Agreement approved by the Board at the March Meeting, and that the investment advisory fees paid by the Fund would reflect the management fee adjustment. The Board also considered their analysis at the March Meeting regarding fund expenses. The Board concluded that its prior consideration of the cost of services and fund expenses as relevant to TCW and the Fund supported a decision to approve the New Subadvisory Agreement.

Economies of Scale
The Board considered their analysis at the March Meeting of the economies of scale that may be realized by MIM and TCW as the Fund grows larger and the extent to which these economies would be shared with the Fund's shareholders. For the reasons discussed at the March Meeting, the Board concluded that economies of scale continued to not be a significant factor with regard to the management fees paid by the Fund at this time given the current assets in the Fund and the limited operating history of the Fund and the expense limitation arrangements that are in effect.
Conclusion
After consideration of the foregoing factors, and such other matters as were deemed relevant, and with no single factor being determinative to their decision, the Board—including a majority of the Independent Trustees with the assistance of counsel—approved the New Subadvisory Agreement and concluded that the subadvisory fee structure provided for in the agreements continued to be fair and reasonable.
