Beyond the Headlines, a Glimpse of Global Economic Recovery
For those of us hoping that 2021 would bring more encouraging headlines, it has been a rough start to the year: political turmoil, surging COVID-19 cases and a new, more virulent strain of the coronavirus. On the surface, economic news also has seemed disappointing: labor markets have cooled, manufacturing and services activity has slowed and consumer sentiment has dropped. Yet, the financial markets continue to march higher, begging the question: Where are the markets getting their news?
Voya investment strategists have written about the uneven pressures that have created a “two-speed” or “K-shaped” economic recovery. Consumers on the higher end of the income distribution have largely kept their jobs and adapted to the pandemic by working from home. By contrast, jobs in lower paying segments of the labor market such as leisure, lodging and retail have been eliminated or furloughed and have yet to return. For lower income consumers, the good news is that the fiscal response to help offset job losses has been enormous — and fiscal relief is expected to grow under a Democratic-controlled government. The initial rollout of the coronavirus vaccines, while slower than many had hoped, still represents a significant milestone as vaccines are the bridge that are expected to allow the economy to reopen fully.
In addition to fiscal support, the response from central banks has been extraordinary. The U.S. Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) has adjusted its policy framework in ways that make the Fed more likely to remain accommodative longer than might otherwise be expected during economic recovery phases, a game changer for financial assets. We believe that analogous developments across the world should help reignite global economic growth in 2021 and breathe new life into struggling sectors. Despite today’s negative headlines, the data is telling us that the future is likely to be better. Looking broadly at the economic picture, in our opinion, it appears that a global synchronous expansion is underway.
Of course there are still risks, and we believe that one should not overlook the potential for episodic market stresses connected to the vaccine rollout or other global factors. As always, we glimpse the future “through a glass darkly,” and must allow for contingencies we can’t foresee. For this reason, we maintain that staying fully invested and broadly diversified is the most likely way to achieve one’s long-term investment goals. Should your goals change, discuss them thoroughly with your investment advisor before making any changes to your portfolio.
We remain humble and realistic in the face of the challenges ahead, but well prepared for and fully committed to serving our clients without disruption. We appreciate your continued confidence in us, and we look forward to serving your investment needs in the future.
Sincerely,
Dina Santoro

Voya Balanced Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks total return consisting of capital appreciation (both realized and unrealized) and current income; the secondary investment objective is long-term capital appreciation. The Portfolio uses an asset allocation strategy (“Target Asset Allocation”) to invest in a diversified portfolio of various asset classes and investment strategies. The Portfolio is managed by Paul Zemsky, CFA, Barbara Reinhard, CFA, and Matthew Toms, CFA, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM”) — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 10.85% compared to the S&P Target Risk® Growth Index Total Return, Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, MSCI EAFE® Index and Russell 3000® Index, which returned 11.83%, 7.51%, 7.82% and 20.89%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio managers attempt to enhance investment returns by tactically deviating from Target Asset Allocations to seek to take advantage of opportunities or reduce risk. The following tactics were among those employed in 2020.
The Portfolio started the year with a neutral stance between equities and fixed income assets. Within the sub-asset class space, the Portfolio favored domestic small cap equities and developed international equities, senior loans, short duration bonds and long government bonds. These positions were funded by underweight positions in domestic large cap equities, core fixed income and high yield bonds.
In January, the Portfolio reversed a trade from the previous quarter that had favored developed international equities over domestic equities. Proceeds from the sale of developed international equities were used to purchase domestic large cap equities. In February, the Portfolio unwound a prior trade that had neutralized their strategic underweight to U.S. small cap equities. Concerns regarding the U.S. small company sector composition and high foreign sales exposure were reasons for re-enacting the underweight.
In March, we had made rotations as a result of extremely oversold conditions due to the negative impact of the coronavirus. Throughout the month, we modestly increased U.S. large cap equities by selling core U.S. fixed income, on our belief that a lot of bad news already was incorporated into equity asset prices. Additionally, we began to increase high

yield bonds by reducing our allocation to short duration bonds and core fixed income. High yield spreads were at extremely distressed levels at the time of the trade and, based on our analysis, we found the risk-reward to be adequate compensation for potential defaults.
At the end of March, we modestly reduced our underweights in developed international and domestic small cap equities, taking from U.S. large cap equities. At the time of the trade, developed international had significantly underperformed U.S. large cap equities.
At the beginning of April, the Portfolio continued scaling into high yield, funded by selling short duration bonds. The Portfolio reduced Treasury inflation-protected securities (“TIPS”) in favor of investment grade (“IG”) bonds, because of the negative yield across the TIPS curve. The objective of the trade was to position the Portfolio to “invest alongside,” i.e., seeking to benefit from, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board’s (“Fed”) commitment to purchasing IG corporate bonds. As part of its annual review process, the Portfolio made modest adjustments to its strategic asset allocation based on our latest long-term capital market assumptions. The updates resulted in a modest decrease in the Portfolio’s equity allocations. In addition, U.S. small cap equities and senior bank loans were removed as strategic asset classes, though the Portfolio remains invested in U.S. small cap equities on a tactical basis.
At the start of May, the Portfolio initiated an underweight to emerging market (“EM”) equities given concerns over the U.S. administration’s, in our view, hawkish stance towards China. Proceeds from the sale were rotated into domestic large cap equities. In mid-May, as the equity markets continued to rally, we lightly trimmed our domestic large cap equity position and moved the proceeds into intermediate bonds. At the end of May and beginning of June, to seek to take advantage of a traditional outperformer in the first year of a recovery, we increased the weighting of domestic small cap equities by selling U.S. large cap stocks and intermediate bonds.
In July, the Portfolio removed long government bond exposure in favor of intermediate term bonds. At the time of the trade, the yield curve had re-flattened and we expected further steepening as economic and COVID-related data, e.g., hospitalizations, continued to improve.
Voya Balanced Portfolio | Portfolio Managers’ Report |
Also, the Portfolio purchased EM equities with proceeds from reducing intermediate bonds. The rationale for the trade lay in the weakening U.S. dollar and the fiscal-led recovery in China.
In October, as part of the semi-annual review of the Portfolio’s strategic asset allocation, the existing tactical underweight to global real estate was incorporated into a longer-term strategic position, resulting in its removal as a strategic asset class. Tactically, the Portfolio neutralized its underweight to emerging market equities and lowered its overweight to domestic small cap equities.
In November, the Portfolio added to developed international equities funded by selling U.S. large cap equities. The rationale for the trade included expectations for EAFE’s recent outperformance to persist, given the continued rise of COVID-19 cases in the United States and further weakening of the U.S. dollar relative to the euro.
During the year, tactical moves relative to the strategic benchmark had a positive impact across the Portfolio.
Underlying sleeves detracted from performance during the year. Underperformers relative to their respective benchmarks included large cap, mid cap and international equities. Core fixed income was the only strategy that outperformed its respective benchmark.
The Portfolio may invest in derivative instruments for different purposes, including to seek to enhance returns, to earn income or as a substitute for a position in an underlying asset class. During the year, the Portfolio utilized futures to implement some tactical positions to avoid significant manager disruption and provide the Portfolio with greater liquidity. The impact of the derivatives was in line with expectations of the tactical asset allocation positions. Overall, tactical positions contributed to performance for the year.
Current Strategy and Outlook: In our opinion, with two COVID-19 vaccines approved for use in the U.S. and a new round of fiscal stimulus on the verge of being deployed, we believe there is a clear bridge (vaccine) to post-COVID-19 normalcy and abutments (stimulus) that should serve to reinforce the recovery and absorb unexpected jolts along the way. We believe highly accommodative monetary policy is likely to be prolonged and act as an additional safety feature to ensure full-employment output is reached without a major accident. The Fed’s new flexible inflation targeting framework should hold short-term rates near their effective lower bound until there is sustained progress towards their 2% inflation goal, in our view. We believe analogous developments taking shape in various forms across the world should help reignite global growth to above-trend levels in 2021, breathe new life into struggling sectors and accelerate the rotation into cyclical assets already underway.
In our view, equity markets look overbought to us, based on certain sentiment indicators, including the Chicago Board Options Exchange put/call ratio. However, we believe the improving medium-term fundamental economic backdrop outweighs any near-term technical weakness. Estimates of U.S. corporate earnings growth for 2021 appear to us to substantially undershoot, particularly in the back half of the year, when we anticipate pent up demand will be unleashed as consumer spending speeds up and ailing services sectors are restored to health.
We recognize most valuation measures that compare broad market stock prices to earnings, cash flows or sales, look historically expensive. Yet, when adjusted for interest rates, we think stocks have more room to run. We believe the Fed will keep the bond market tame in the near term, which will hold earnings multiples afloat while better future financial reports boost numbers in the denominator in the second half of 2021. Another reason we like equities better than bonds is our view that in the next phase of the business cycle, cyclically geared assets will carry more of the load. We also believe the hand-off that began at the end of October is likely to continue; we remain overweight to U.S. small cap and EM equities, which stand to benefit from economic progression, in our view.
The same macro level view guides our positioning in fixed income. The lagged impact of fiscal and monetary policy, combined with a better-controlled global health situation, should in our opinion press corporate credit and securitized spreads tighter. We think accelerating growth will steepen the yield curve, so we are underweighted in duration. But we do not expect long-end yields will shoot so high, so fast, as to meaningfully tighten financial conditions. Given their yield advantage, we continue to prefer U.S. fixed income over non-U.S. developed market bonds. Our view is that the U.S. dollar will continue to weaken, making foreign bonds more attractive, especially EM debt. Nonetheless, we still believe EM equities offer better risk-adjusted return potential than fixed income.

Voya Global High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio* (the “Portfolio”) seeks long-term capital growth and current income. The Portfolio is managed by Steve Wetter, Kai Yee Wong, Peg DiOrio, CFA, and Vincent Costa, CFA, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance*: For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Portfolio’s Class S shares provided a total return of -1.09% compared to the MSCI World Value IndexSM and the MSCI World IndexSM (“MSCI World”), which returned -1.16% and 15.90%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: For the reporting period, the Portfolio underperformed the MSCI World. However, the Portfolio outperformed it’s primary benchmark, the MSCI World Value IndexSM. In terms of the Portfolio’s performance, industry exposure was a positive contributor and the stock ranking model also outperformed. By contrast, low beta was a significant headwind, as was the Portfolio’s small-capitalization tilt.
On the regional level, the underweight and stock selection in Europe and overweight and selection in developed Asia were the strongest contributors, while stock selection was weakest in Japan. On the sector level, the overweight to information technology and underweight to energy contributed positively. Stock selection was strong in information technology but negative in energy. While the overweight to health care detracted from performance, stock selection in the sector was strong, making it the third largest contributor. At the individual stock level, exposure to non-benchmark stocks Microsoft Corporation and Intuit Inc., as well as the underweight to Exxon Mobil Corporation were among the key contributors for the period.
By contrast, at the sector level stock selection was weakest in the industrials and communication services sectors. The

underweight and stock selection in consumer discretionary detracted as well. At the individual stock level, the overweight to ONEOK, Inc., exposure to non-benchmark stock Equitrans Midstream Corp. and not owning Broadcom Inc. were the largest detractors.
Current Strategy and Outlook: This is an actively managed global quantitative equity strategy that seeks to generate higher dividend income and total returns, with lower volatility and better downside capture, than the MSCI World Value IndexSM. The investment process seeks to create a universe of sustainable dividend-paying stocks and utilizes fundamentally driven sector-specific alpha models to identify the most attractive stocks within each region-sector. The managers then seek to optimize the Portfolio’s potential to achieve its dividend, alpha and volatility objectives.

Voya Government Money Market Portfolio* (the “Portfolio”) seeks to provide high current return, consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity, through investment in high-quality money market instruments, while maintaining a stable share price of $1.00 per share. The Portfolio is managed by David S. Yealy, Portfolio Manager of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM”) — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 0.29% compared to the iMoneyNet Government Institutional Index, which returned 0.31% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio has waived fees in order to maintain a zero or positive yield, as have other money market funds. The Portfolio was able to realize some capital gains by primarily buying longer-term new issue T-Bills and selling them after yields declined to market levels over time. These gains were distributed to the shareholders and allowed the Portfolio to increase the total return over the yield of the Portfolio. The Portfolio continued to maintain an exposure to floating rate money market securities, shifting out of floaters tied to 3-month London inter-bank offered rate (“LIBOR”) or 1-month LIBOR, and into floaters tied to 1-day secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), as the market prepares for LIBOR to be replaced by SOFR.
The year ended December 31, 2020, can be summed up by the COVID-19 pandemic and the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”), the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”), the U.S. Treasury and U.S. government’s response to the impact the coronavirus had on the markets and the economy. On March 3, prior to their regularly scheduled meeting on March 15, the FOMC lowered the federal funds rate by 0.50% to a range of 1.00% to 1.25%. They took that action in light of the risks posed to economic activity by the coronavirus despite the current strong economy and low level of unemployment. The FOMC again lowered the federal funds rate another 1% at the March 15 meeting, lowering it to a range of 0% to 0.25%. The FOMC indicated that global financial conditions had been significantly affected by the coronavirus. In addition, the Fed also agreed to purchase $500 billion of U.S. Treasury securities and $200 billion of mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) and expand overnight and term repurchase agreement operations. The Fed and U.S. Treasury were forced to institute various programs in order to stabilize the markets, provide liquidity and support the smooth operations of the various markets. The U.S. government instituted a stimulus program to lessen the impact from the coronavirus on the U.S. economy. The federal funds rate has remained at the 0% to 0.25% range, and the Fed continues to purchase U.S. Treasury securities and MBS, as well as reinvest maturities and paydowns on a monthly basis as the coronavirus continued to have a major impact on the U.S. and global economy. Money market rates of securities purchased by the Portfolio, as well as other money market funds, declined in direct response to the FOMC actions.
Outlook and Current Strategy: Looking ahead we believe that the U.S. economy and employment will take a significant amount of time to fully recover as the effects from the coronavirus continue well into 2021, the vaccine rollout takes time and additional stimulus is needed to bridge the gap. The FOMC has indicated that they expect to hold rates at the current level till at least 2023 based on their dot plot estimates of the federal funds rate. We do not envision a scenario where the FOMC will be in a position to raise rates in the upcoming year. Any increases in short-term money market rates would be viewed by us as temporary and as an opportunity to add a few basis points of yield or the ability to capture some capital gains. We will otherwise maintain a shorter weighted average maturity, an exposure to floating rate securities and look to take advantage of any market dislocations due to temporary supply and demand imbalances for short-term U.S. Treasury and agency securities.

Please see Note 5 for more information regarding the contractual waiver in place to reimburse certain expenses of the Portfolio to the extent necessary to assist the Portfolio in maintaining a net yield of not less than 0.00%.

Voya Growth and Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to maximize total return through investments in a diversified portfolio of common stock and securities convertible into common stocks. It is anticipated that capital appreciation and investment income will both be major factors in achieving total return. The Portfolio is managed by Vincent Costa, CFA, and James Dorment, CFA, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 17.26% compared to the S&P 500® Index, which returned 18.40% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Portfolio underperformed the S&P 500® Index due to weak security selection. On the sector level, stock selection within the health care and consumer discretionary sectors had the largest negative impact on relative performance. Key detractors included overweight positions in MGM Resorts International and L Brands, Inc., and an underweight position in Apple Inc.
By contrast, stock selection within the industrials and real estate sectors had the largest positive impact on performance. At the individual stock level, key contributors were overweight positions in Adobe Inc., ViacomCBS Inc. and AT&T Inc.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We continue to see what we believe are attractive valuations in companies in a variety of

Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to maximize total return consistent with reasonable risk. The Portfolio seeks its objective through investments in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of debt securities.

The Portfolio is managed by David Goodson, Randall Parrish, CFA, and Matthew Toms, CFA, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 7.81% compared to the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 7.51% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, primarily due to security selection decisions, while sector allocation and duration and yield curve positioning modestly detracted from performance.
The strong performance of fixed income markets over the course of 2020, masks the intra-period volatility sparked by the global pandemic early in the year. Fixed income markets witnessed another roller coaster in 2020, as the extraordinary volatility and market performance in the first quarter and ensuing rebound dominated the performance profile for the trailing 12 months. While the news of the COVID-19 pandemic ignited a flight to quality, with the U.S. Treasury market remaining the world’s preferred risk-free asset, the response by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) as well as other global central banks and government agencies was equally swift to stabilize economies and financial markets. The Fed slashed official short-term interest rates to effectively zero, with guidance that zero interest-rate policy would be in place for the foreseeable future. The U.S. 10-yield, which began the year at 1.92%, fell to a low of 0.51% before ending the year at 0.92%. Non-government sectors meaningfully underperformed in the earlier part of the year, only to stage significant rebounds. The first leg of the rebound was supported by various government programs as well as signs of a recovering global economy. The rally was extended with the announcements from both Pfizer

and Moderna regarding a vaccine that fueled further optimism in our opinion for continued progress for the economy going into 2021.
In aggregate, performance was supported by security selection and varied by sector. Positive security selection in investment-grade corporates that reflected tactical shifting in the overall risk profile was partially offset by sector allocation decisions. Having been more defensively positioned early in the period in high-yield (“HY”), the strategy benefited as we increased our exposure in HY after the first quarter of 2020 sell-off. Sector allocations in securitized credits added to performance, and security selection in agency residential mortgage-backed securities benefited from investments in collateralized mortgage obligations, while commercial mortgage-backed securities selection was a headwind as our more credit sensitive investments lagged over concerns regarding the impact of the economy on commercial real estate. Duration positioning that included a tactical defensive positioning in the first quarter of 2020 modestly detracted, while curve positioning helped to offset some of this detraction. During the present low rate environment, we have looked to include additional strategies designed to offset unexpected weakness in credit markets. This included put options on the Australian dollar which typically declines in a risk-off environment. As credit markets rebounded, this hedge, as expected during a stronger market, detracted from our performance over the period. In addition, small currency exposures associated with our investments in emerging markets also detracted.
The Portfolio used derivatives such as used futures, swaps, options and forward contracts for hedging and overall risk management. The use of derivatives positively impacted performance for the period.
Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio | Portfolio Managers’ Report |
Current Strategy and Outlook: Heading into 2021, in our view the market backdrop for cyclical sectors is extraordinarily positive. We believe consumers, supported by excess savings, robust net worth and additional fiscal aid, will drive a recovery in discretionary spending, leading to a full re-engagement of the service sector as the vaccine rollout becomes more widespread. We also believe the recovery in services spending, coupled with resilience in goods demand, should usher in an extended period of synchronous, above-trend global growth, easing pressures on the income divide.
In the near-term, cyclical sectors across non-government sectors are relatively attractive, in our opinion. We believe that a rebound in economic growth, fostered by a duality of fiscal and central bank support, will push spreads uncomfortably tight in 2021.
However, we also recognize the market seems to be very aligned on the near-term positive direction of risk assets. In our opinion, this one-way sentiment opens the door for volatility. The vaccine news is overwhelmingly positive, and we believe the vaccine ultimately will succeed. However, it is our view that the potential for episodic market stresses, whether connected to the vaccine or other global factors, should not be overlooked.
We believe that the heavy use of economic stabilizers creates vulnerability to shocks and will leave investors exposed to increasingly asymmetric risk profiles. Security selection, which is always important, will be critical, as we believe the dispersion between “winning” and “losing” investments within sectors will remain extremely wide. It is our opinion that diversification, tail risk hedging and careful analysis of cyclical versus structural factors are necessary to mitigate downside risks and prepare portfolios for the income-starved world we face ahead.

Voya Small Company Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks growth of capital primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stock of companies with smaller market capitalizations. The Portfolio is managed by Joseph Basset, CFA, and James Hasso, Portfolio Managers of Voya Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 12.28% compared to the Russell 2000® Index, which returned 19.96% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio underperformed the Russell 2000® Index during the reporting period due to unfavorable stock selection effects. Most notably, stock selection in the software and services and consumer services sectors detracted the most value. On an individual stock level, an overweight position in Welbilt Inc., owning a non-benchmark position in WPX Energy, Inc. and not owning Teladoc Health, Inc. had the greatest negative impact on performance. In contrast, holdings in the real estate and retail sectors contributed the most to performance. On an individual stock level, overweight positions in Generac Holdings Inc., Amedisys, Inc. and Repligen Corporation added the most value.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Despite historically weak, choppy economic data and unsettling, pandemic-related headlines, in our opinion risk assets have pushed higher on investor confidence that the future will be better than the present. With two COVID-19 vaccines in distribution and a new round of fiscal stimulus about to be deployed, we believe the U.S. economy is primed to accelerate in 2021. In our view, there is a clear bridge (vaccine) to post-COVID-19 normalcy and abutments (fiscal stimulus and prolonged, accommodative monetary policy) that should keep the recovery on track and

Class R6 incepted on November 24, 2015. The Class R6 shares performance shown for the period prior to their inception date is the performance of Class I shares without adjustment for any differences in the expenses between the two classes. If adjusted for such differences, returns would be different.
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLES (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Portfolio expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Portfolio 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 the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020. The Portfolios’ expenses are shown without the imposition of any charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable annuity contract, variable life insurance policy, qualified pension, or retirement plan. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.
Actual Expenses
The left section of the table shown below, “Actual Portfolio Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The right section of the table shown below, “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses),” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Portfolio’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 a Portfolio and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Voya Global High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio (formerly, Voya Global Equity Portfolio), Voya Government Money Market Portfolio, Voya Growth and Income Portfolio, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Voya Small Company Portfolio and the Boards of Directors/Trustees of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Inc., Voya Variable Funds, Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc., Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Voya Government Money Market Portfolio
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Voya Global High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio (formerly, Voya Global Equity Portfolio), Voya Government Money Market Portfolio, Voya Growth and Income Portfolio, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Voya Small Company Portfolio (collectively referred to as the “Portfolios”) (each a portfolio of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Inc., Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc., Voya Government Money Market Portfolio, Voya Variable Funds, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc., respectively (collectively referred to as the “Registrants”)), including the portfolio of investments and summary portfolios of investments, as applicable, as of December 31, 2020, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolios at December 31, 2020, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and their financial highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The statement of changes in net assets for the year ended December 31, 2019, and the financial highlights for each of the periods in the four-year period then ended, were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated February 26, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on that statement of changes in net assets and those financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Registrants’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolios’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Registrants in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Registrants are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Registrants’ internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Registrants’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and others or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from others were not received. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the auditor of one or more Voya investment companies since 2019.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION
As further detailed below, the Voya Variable Product Funds are series of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Inc., Voya Variable Funds, Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc., Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio, and Voya Government Money Market Portfolio (collectively, the “Registrants”), all of which are open-end investment management companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”).
Voya Balanced Portfolio, Inc. is a company incorporated under the laws of Maryland on December 14, 1988 with one diversified series, Voya Balanced Portfolio (“Balanced”). Voya Variable Funds is a business trust formed under the laws of Massachusetts on January 25, 1984 with one diversified series, Voya Growth and Income Portfolio (“Growth and Income”). Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc. is a company incorporated under the laws of Maryland on June 4, 1996 and has fourteen active separate investment series. The two diversified series of Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc. included in this report are Voya Global High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio (“Global High Dividend Low Volatility”), and Voya Small Company Portfolio (“Small Company”). Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio is a business trust formed under the laws of Massachusetts on January 25, 1984 with one diversified series, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio (“Intermediate Bond”). Voya Government Money Market Portfolio is a business trust formed under the laws of Massachusetts on January 25, 1984 with one diversified series, Voya Government Money Market Portfolio (“Government Money Market”). Each of the Voya Variable Product Funds is a “Portfolio” and collectively, they are the “Portfolios.” The investment objective of the Portfolios is described in the respective Portfolio’s Prospectus. Prior to May 1, 2020, Global High Dividend Low Volatility was known as “Voya Global Equity Portfolio.”
The classes of shares included in this report are: Adviser (“Class ADV”), Class I, Class R6, Class S, Service 2 (“Class S2”) and Class T; however, each Portfolio may not offer all share classes. With the exception of class specific matters, each class has equal voting rights as to voting privileges. For class specific proposals, only the applicable class would have voting privileges. The classes differ principally in the applicable distribution and shareholder service fees. Generally, shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders are allocated the common expenses of a portfolio and earn income and realized gains/losses from a portfolio pro rata based on the daily ending net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses that are specific to a portfolio or a class are charged directly to that portfolio or class. Other operating
expenses shared by several portfolios are generally allocated among those portfolios based on average net assets. Distributions are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocated to each class. Realized gain distributions are allocated to each class pro rata based on the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder service fees, if any, as well as differences in the amount of waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses between the separate classes, if any.
Voya Investments, LLC (“Voya Investments” or the “Investment Adviser”), an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the Investment Adviser to the Portfolios. Voya Investment Management Co. LLC (“Voya IM” or the “Sub-Adviser”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the Sub-Adviser to the Portfolios. Voya Investments Distributor, LLC (“VID” or the “Distributor”), a Delaware limited liability company, serves as the principal underwriter to the Portfolios.
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Portfolio is considered an investment company under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.
A. Security Valuation. Each Portfolio is open for business every day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) opens for regular trading (each such day, a “Business Day”). The net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of each Portfolio, (except Government Money Market), is determined each Business Day as of the close of the regular trading session (“Market Close”), as determined by the Consolidated Tape Association (“CTA”), the central distributor of transaction prices for exchange-traded securities (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time unless otherwise designated by the CTA). The data reflected on the consolidated tape provided by the CTA is generated by various market centers, including all securities exchanges, electronic communications networks, and third-market broker-dealers. The NAV per share of each class of each Portfolio is calculated by taking the value of the Portfolio’s assets attributable to that class, subtracting the Portfolio’s liabilities attributable to that class, and dividing by the number of shares of that class that are outstanding. On days when a Portfolio is closed for business, Portfolio shares will not be priced and a Portfolio does not transact purchase and redemption orders. To the extent a Portfolio’s
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
assets are traded in other markets on days when a Portfolio does not price its shares, the value of a Portfolio’s assets will likely change and you will not be able to purchase or redeem shares of a Portfolio.
Assets for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. A security listed or traded on an exchange is valued at its last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the regular trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded or, if such price is not available, at the last sale price as of the Market Close for such security provided by the CTA. Bank loans are valued at the average of the averages of the bid and ask prices provided to an independent loan pricing service by brokers. Futures contracts are valued at the final settlement price set by an exchange on which they are principally traded. Listed options are valued at the mean between the last bid and ask prices from the exchange on which they are principally traded. Investments in open-end registered investment companies that do not trade on an exchange are valued at the end of day NAV per share. Investments in registered investment companies that trade on an exchange are valued at the last sales price or official closing price as of the close of the regular trading session on the exchange where the security is principally traded.
When a market quotation is not readily available or is deemed unreliable, each Portfolio will determine a fair value for the relevant asset in accordance with procedures adopted by the Portfolios’ Board of Directors/Trustees (“Board”). Such procedures provide, for example, that: (a) Exchange-traded securities are valued at the mean of the closing bid and ask; (b) Debt obligations are valued using an evaluated price provided by an independent pricing service. Evaluated prices provided by the pricing service may be determined without exclusive reliance on quoted prices, and may reflect factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, developments related to specific securities, benchmark yield, quality, type of issue, coupon rate, maturity, individual trading characteristics and other market data; (c) Securities traded in the over-the-counter (“OTC”) market are valued based on prices provided by independent pricing services or market makers; (d) Options not listed on an exchange are valued by an independent source using an industry accepted model, such as Black-Scholes; (e) Centrally cleared swap agreements are valued using a price provided by the central counterparty clearinghouse; (f) OTC swap agreements are valued using a price provided by an independent pricing service; (g) Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued utilizing current and forward rates obtained from an independent pricing service. Such prices from the third party pricing
service are for specific settlement periods and each Portfolio’s forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued at an interpolated rate between the closest preceding and subsequent period reported by the independent pricing service; and (h) Securities for which market prices are not provided by any of the above methods may be valued based upon quotes furnished by brokers.
The prospectuses of the open-end registered investment companies in which each Portfolio may invest explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.
Foreign securities’ (including forward foreign currency exchange contracts) prices are converted into U.S. dollar amounts using the applicable exchange rates as of Market Close. If market quotations are available and believed to be reliable for foreign exchange-traded equity securities, the securities will be valued at the market quotations. Because trading hours for certain foreign securities end before Market Close, closing market quotations may become unreliable. An independent pricing service determines the degree of certainty, based on historical data, that the closing price in the principal market where a foreign security trades is not the current value as of Market Close. Foreign securities’ prices meeting the approved degree of certainty that the price is not reflective of current value will be valued by the independent pricing service using pricing models designed to estimate likely changes in the values of those securities between the times in which the trading in those securities is substantially completed and Market Close. Multiple factors may be considered by the independent pricing service in determining the value of such securities and may include information relating to sector indices, American Depositary Receipts and domestic and foreign index futures.
All other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or became unreliable (or if the above fair valuation methods are unavailable or determined to be unreliable) are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Board following procedures approved by the Board. The Board has delegated to the Investment Adviser responsibility for overseeing the implementation of the Portfolios’ valuation procedures; a “Pricing Committee” comprised of employees of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates has responsibility for applying the fair valuation methods set forth in the procedures and, if a fair valuation cannot be determined pursuant to the fair valuation methods, determining the fair value of assets held by the Portfolios. Issuer specific events, transaction price, position size, nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the security, market trends, bid/ask quotes of brokers and
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
other market data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. Valuations change in response to many factors including the historical and prospective earnings of the issuer, the value of the issuer’s assets, general economic conditions, interest rates, investor perceptions and market liquidity. Because of the inherent uncertainties of fair valuation, the values used to determine each Portfolio’s NAV may materially differ from the value received upon actual sale of those investments. Thus, fair valuation may have an unintended dilutive or accretive effect on the value of shareholders’ investments in each Portfolio.
Government Money Market uses the amortized cost method to value its portfolio securities and seeks to maintain a constant NAV of $1.00 per share, although there may be circumstances under which this goal cannot be achieved. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security at its cost and amortizing any discount or premium over the period until maturity, regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates or the market value of the security. Although the Board has established procedures designed to stabilize, to the extent reasonably possible, the share price of Government Money Market, there can be no assurance that the Portfolio’s NAV can be maintained at $1.00 per share.
Each investment asset or liability of the Portfolios is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1,” inputs other than quoted prices for an asset or liability that are observable are classified as “Level 2” and significant unobservable inputs, including the Sub-Adviser’s or Pricing Committee’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as “Level 3.” The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality are generally considered to be Level 2 securities under applicable accounting rules. A table summarizing the Portfolios’ investments under these levels of classification is included within the Portfolio of Investments.
GAAP requires a reconciliation of the beginning to ending balances for reported fair values that presents changes attributable to total realized and unrealized gains or losses, purchases and sales, and transfers in or out of the Level 3 category during the period. A reconciliation of Level 3 investments within the Portfolio of Investments is presented only when a Portfolio has a significant amount of Level 3 investments.
B. Securities Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Portfolios. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method.
C. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(1)
Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at Market Close.
(2)
Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at Market Close, the Portfolios do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities, which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding tax reclaims recorded on each Portfolio’s book, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments, which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
companies and U.S. government securities. The foregoing risks are even greater with respect to securities of issuers in emerging markets.
D. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. Certain Portfolios’ investment strategies permit the Portfolios to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, a Portfolio will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the level or types of exposure to risk factors. This may allow a Portfolio to pursue its objectives more quickly and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of affecting a similar response to market or credit factors.
In pursuit of its investment objectives, a Portfolio may seek to increase or decrease its exposure to the following market or credit risk factors:
Credit Risk. The price of a bond or other debt instrument is likely to fall if the issuer’s actual or perceived financial health deteriorates, whether because of broad economic or issuer-specific reasons. In certain cases, the issuer could be late in paying interest or principal, or could fail to pay its financial obligations altogether.
Equity Risk. Stock prices may be volatile or have reduced liquidity in response to real or perceived impacts of factors including, but not limited to, economic conditions, changes in market interest rates, and political events. Stock markets tend to be cyclical, with periods when stock prices generally rise and periods when stock prices generally decline. Any given stock market segment may remain out of favor with investors for a short or long period of time, and stocks as an asset class may underperform bonds or other asset classes during some periods. Additionally, legislative, regulatory or tax policies or developments in these areas may adversely impact the investment techniques available to a manager, add to costs and impair the ability of a Portfolio to achieve its investment objectives.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. To the extent that a Portfolio invests directly in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities denominated in, or that trade in, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, it is subject to the risk that those foreign (non-U.S.) currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged by a Portfolio through foreign currency exchange transactions.
Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. Currency rates may be affected by changes in market interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, by the imposition of currency controls, or other political or economic developments in the United States or abroad.
Interest Rate Risk. With bonds and other fixed rate debt instruments, a rise in market interest rates generally causes values to fall; conversely, values generally rise as market interest rates fall. The higher the credit quality of the instrument, and the longer its maturity or duration, the more sensitive it is likely to be to interest rate risk. In the case of inverse securities, the interest rate paid by the securities is a floating rate, which generally will decrease when the market rate of interest to which the inverse security is indexed increases and will increase when the market rate of interest to which the inverse security is indexed decreases. As of the date of this report, the United States experiences a low interest rate environment, which may increase a Portfolio’s exposure to risks associated with rising market interest rates. Rising market interest rates could have unpredictable effects on the markets and may expose fixed-income and related markets to heightened volatility. For a fund that invests in fixed-income securities, an increase in market interest rates may lead to increased redemptions and increased portfolio turnover, which could reduce liquidity for certain investments, adversely affect values, and increase costs. If dealer capacity in fixed-income markets is insufficient for market conditions, it may further inhibit liquidity and increase volatility in the fixed-income markets. Further, recent and potential changes in government policy may affect interest rates.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. A Portfolio’s use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market or credit risk factors and the overall market. In instances where a Portfolio is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market or credit risk factors for securities held by a Portfolio, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
Derivative instruments are subject to a number of risks, including the risk of changes in the market price of the underlying securities, credit risk with respect to the counterparty, risk of loss due to changes in market interest rates and liquidity and volatility risk. The amounts required to purchase certain derivatives may be small relative to the magnitude of exposure assumed by a Portfolio. Therefore, the purchase of certain derivatives may have an economic leveraging effect on a Portfolio and exaggerate any
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
increase or decrease in the NAV. Derivatives may not perform as expected, so a Portfolio may not realize the intended benefits. When used for hedging purposes, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the currency, security or other risk being hedged. When used as an alternative or substitute for direct cash investments, the return provided by the derivative may not provide the same return as direct cash investment. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose a Portfolio to the risk of improper valuation.
Generally, derivatives are sophisticated financial instruments whose performance is derived, at least in part, from the performance of an underlying asset or assets. Derivatives include, among other things, swap agreements, options, forwards and futures. Investments in derivatives are generally negotiated OTC with a single counterparty and as a result are subject to credit risks related to the counterparty’s ability or willingness to perform its obligations; any deterioration in the counterparty’s creditworthiness could adversely affect the value of the derivative. In addition, derivatives and their underlying securities may experience periods of illiquidity which could cause a Portfolio to hold a security it might otherwise sell, or to sell a security it otherwise might hold at inopportune times or at an unanticipated price. A manager might imperfectly judge the direction of the market. For instance, if a derivative is used as a hedge to offset investment risk in another security, the hedge might not correlate to the market’s movements and may have unexpected or undesired results such as a loss or a reduction in gains.
Counterparty Credit Risk and Credit Related Contingent Features. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to a Portfolio. Each Portfolio’s derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. A Portfolio intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that they believe to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. To reduce this risk, a Portfolio has entered into master netting arrangements, established within each Portfolio’s International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements (“Master Agreements”). These Master Agreements are with select counterparties and they govern transactions, including certain OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts, entered into by a Portfolio and the counterparty. The Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event
of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate all of its contracts and affect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable Master Agreement.
A Portfolio may also enter into collateral agreements with certain counterparties to further mitigate counterparty credit risk on OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts. Subject to established minimum levels, collateral is generally determined based on the net aggregate unrealized gain or loss on contracts with a certain counterparty. Collateral pledged to or from a Portfolio is held in a segregated account by a third-party agent and can be in the form of cash or debt securities issued by the U.S. government or related agencies.
As of December 31, 2020, the maximum amount of loss that Balanced and Intermediate Bond would incur if the counterparties to their derivative transactions failed to perform would be $16,995 and $778,564, respectively, which represents the gross payments to be received by the Portfolios on OTC purchased options and open forward foreign currency contracts were they to be unwound as of December 31, 2020. The Portfolios did not receive any cash collateral at December 31, 2020.
Each Portfolio has credit-related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivative counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from a Portfolio. Credit-related contingent features are established between each Portfolio and their derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that a Portfolio will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in a Portfolio’s net assets and/or a percentage decrease in a Portfolio’s NAV, which could cause a Portfolio to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty. The contingent features are established within each Portfolio’s Master Agreements.
As of December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had a liability position of $39,884 and $2,402,473, respectively, on open forward foreign currency contracts and OTC written options. If a contingent feature would have been triggered as of December 31, 2020, these Portfolios could have been required to pay these amounts in cash to their counterparties. At December 31, 2020, Intermediate Bond pledged $1,820,000 in cash collateral to certain counterparties for open OTC derivatives. Balanced did not pledge any cash collateral at December 31, 2020.
E. Forward Foreign Currency Transactions and Futures Contracts. Certain Portfolios may enter into foreign currency exchange transactions to convert to and from different foreign currencies and to and from the U.S.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
dollar in connection with the planned purchases or sales of securities. When entering into a forward foreign currency contract, a Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed upon future date. A Portfolio either enters into these transactions on a spot basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market or uses forward foreign currency contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies. When the contract is fulfilled or closed, gains or losses are realized. Until then, the gain or loss is included in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their forward contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the following Portfolios had average contract amounts on forward foreign currency contracts purchased and sold as disclosed below:
| | | Purchased | | | Sold | |
Balanced | | | | $ | 143,192 | | | | | $ | 1,095,383 | | |
Intermediate Bond | | | | | 6,859,306 | | | | | | 66,587,198 | | |
The above Portfolios entered into forward foreign currency contracts to protect any non-U.S. dollar-denominated holdings from adverse currency movements. Please refer to the tables within each respective Portfolio of Investments for open forward foreign currency contracts at December 31, 2020.
Each Portfolio, with the exception of Government Money Market, may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and security indices. A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future date. A Portfolio may buy and sell futures contracts. Futures contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when each Portfolio’s assets are valued.
Upon entering into a futures contract, a Portfolio is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by a Portfolio each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses and included within Cash collateral for futures contracts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Open futures contracts
are reported on a table within each Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are footnoted in the Portfolio of Investments. Cash collateral held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation is reported in the Statements of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported in the Statements of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.
Futures contracts are exposed to the market risk factor of the underlying financial instrument. During the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond have purchased and sold futures contracts on various bonds and notes as part of their duration management. Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where a Portfolio is unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of a Portfolio’s securities. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Portfolios since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the following Portfolios had average notional values on futures contracts purchased and sold as disclosed below:
| | | Purchased | | | Sold | |
Balanced | | | | $ | 32,912,909 | | | | | $ | 17,764,215 | | |
Intermediate Bond | | | | | 601,766,367 | | | | | | 160,452,960 | | |
Please refer to the tables within each respective Portfolio of Investments for the above Portfolios’ open futures contracts at December 31, 2020.
F. Options Contracts. Certain Portfolios may write call and put options on futures, swaps (“swaptions”), securities, commodities or foreign currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolios exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolios exposure to the underlying instrument. When a Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Forward premium swaptions include premiums that have extended settlement dates. The delayed settlement of the premiums is factored into the daily valuation of the option contracts. Premiums received from writing options which expire are
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying futures, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. A Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying instrument may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the instrument underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolios may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market. The Portfolios may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolios’ exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolios exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolios pay a premium which is included on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying investment transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had purchased foreign currency options to manage their foreign exchange exposure. Balanced and Intermediate Bond had average notional values of $2,530,285 and $129,236,614, respectively, on purchased foreign currency options. Please refer to the tables within each respective Portfolio of Investments for open purchased foreign currency options at December 31, 2020.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had written foreign currency options to generate income. Balanced and Intermediate Bond had average notional values of $1,619,060 and $77,212,101, respectively, on written foreign currency options. Please refer to the tables within each respective Portfolio of Investments for open purchased foreign currency options at December 31, 2020.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had purchased options on exchange-traded funds to gain exposure to certain market sectors. Balanced and Intermediate Bond had an average notional value of $900,382 and $71,371,427, respectively, on
purchased options on exchange-traded funds. The Portfolios did not have any open purchased options on exchange-traded funds at December 31, 2020.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had purchased forward premium swaptions to manage duration and yield curve exposures. Balanced and Intermediate Bond had average notional values of $4,101,000 and $235,427,000, respectively, on purchased forward premium swaptions. The Portfolios did not have any open purchased forward premium swaptions at December 31, 2020.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had purchased credit default swaptions in an attempt to gain exposure to certain credit markets. Balanced and Intermediate Bond had average notional values of $993,500 and $51,797,500, respectively, on purchased credit default swaptions. Please refer to the tables within each respective Portfolio of Investments for open purchased credit default swaptions at December 31, 2020.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had written credit default swaptions to generate income. Balanced and Intermediate Bond had average notional values of $1,529,000 and $84,348,500, respectively, on written credit default swaptions. There were no open written credit default swaptions at year ended December 31, 2020.
G. Distributions to Shareholders. The Portfolios record distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. Government Monday Market declares and pays net short-term capital gain distributions, if any, monthly and net long-term capital gain distributions, if any, annually. All other Portfolios distribute capital gains, if any, annually. Balanced and Small Company declare and pay dividends, if any, annually. Growth and Income declares and pays dividends, if any, semi-annually. Government Money Market and Intermediate Bond declare dividends daily and pay dividends, if any, monthly. Global High Dividend Low Volatility declares and pays dividends, if any, quarterly. The Portfolios may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies.
H. Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of each Portfolio to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and any net realized capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, a federal income tax
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
or excise tax provision is not required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Portfolios’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until the capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized.
The Portfolios may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain.
I. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
J. Repurchase Agreements. Each Portfolio may invest in repurchase agreements only with government securities dealers recognized by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Under such agreements, the seller of the security agrees to repurchase it at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The resale price is in excess of the purchase price and reflects an agreed upon interest rate for the period of time the agreement is outstanding. The period of the repurchase agreements is usually short, from overnight to one week, while the underlying securities generally have longer maturities. Each Portfolio will receive as collateral securities acceptable to it whose market value is equal to at least 100% of the carrying amount of the repurchase agreements, plus accrued interest, being invested by the Portfolio. The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to assure that the value, including accrued interest is at least equal to the repurchase price. There would be potential loss to the Portfolio in the event the Portfolio is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral, and it might incur disposition costs in liquidating the collateral.
Repurchase agreements are entered into by the Portfolios under Master Repurchase Agreements (“MRA”) which permit the Portfolios, under certain circumstances, including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset receivables or payables under the MRA with collateral held and/or pledged by the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from the respective Portfolio. Please refer to the table within the Portfolio of Investments for Government Money Market for open repurchase agreements subject to the MRA on a net basis at December 31, 2020.
K. Securities Lending. Each Portfolio (except Government Money Market) may temporarily loan up to 331∕3% of its total assets to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender’s fee. Securities lending involves two primary risks: “investment risk” and “borrower default risk.” When lending securities, the Portfolios will receive cash or U.S. government securities as collateral. Investment risk is the risk that the Portfolios will lose money from the investment of the cash collateral received from the borrower. Borrower default risk is the risk that the Portfolios will lose money due to the failure of a borrower to return a borrowed security. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Portfolios. Securities lending may result in leverage. The use of leverage may exaggerate any increase or decrease in the NAV, causing the Portfolios to be more volatile. The use of leverage may increase expenses and increase the impact of the Portfolios’ other risks.
L. Restricted Securities. The Portfolios may invest in restricted securities, which include those sold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”) or securities offered pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the 1933 Act, and/or are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may not be publicly sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Restricted securities are fair valued using market quotations when readily available. In the absence of market quotations, the securities are valued based upon their fair value determined in good faith under procedures approved by the Board.
Securities that are not registered for sale to the public under the 1933 Act are referred to as “restricted securities.” These securities may be sold in private placement transactions between issuers and their purchasers and may be neither listed on an exchange nor traded in other established markets. Many times these securities are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. As a result of the absence of a public trading market, the prices of these securities may be more volatile, less liquid and more difficult to value than publicly traded securities. The price realized from the sale of these securities could be less than the amount originally paid or less than their fair value if they are resold in privately negotiated transactions. In addition, these securities may not be subject to disclosure and other investment protection requirements that are afforded to publicly traded securities. Certain investments may include investment in smaller, less seasoned issuers, which may involve greater risk.
M. When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions. Each Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. The price of the
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
underlying securities and date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The fair value of such is identified in the Portfolio of Investments. Losses may arise due to changes in the fair value of the securities or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract. In connection with such purchases, the Portfolios are required to hold liquid assets as collateral with the Portfolios’ custodian sufficient to cover the purchase price.
To mitigate counterparty risk, certain Portfolios have entered into Master Securities Forward Transaction Agreements (“MSFTA”) with their respective counterparties that provide for collateral and the right to offset amounts due to or from those counterparties under specified conditions. Subject to minimum transfer amounts, collateral requirements are determined and transfers made based on the net aggregate unrealized gain or loss on all the when-issued or delayed-delivery transactions with a particular counterparty. Cash collateral, if any, is presented on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset (Cash pledged as collateral for delayed-delivery or when-issued securities) and a liability (Cash received as collateral for delayed-delivery or when-issued securities).
At December 31, 2020, Intermediate Bond had received $270,000 in cash collateral with certain counter parties for open delayed-delivery or when-issued transactions.
N. Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions. Each Portfolio, except Small Company, may engage in dollar roll transactions with respect to mortgage-backed securities issued by Government National Mortgage Association, Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. In a dollar roll transaction, a Portfolio sells a mortgage-backed security to a financial institution, such as a bank or broker/dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a substantially similar (i.e., same type, coupon, and maturity) security from the institution on a delayed delivery basis at an agreed upon price. The mortgage-backed securities that are repurchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories. The Portfolios account for dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales. For fee based roll transactions, the fee is recorded as income.
O. Swap Agreements. Certain Portfolios may enter into swap agreements. A swap is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which each party agrees to make one or more payments to the other at specified future intervals based on the return of an asset (such as a stock, bond or currency) or non-asset reference (such as an interest rate or index). Swap agreements are privately negotiated in the
OTC market and may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered commodities exchange (“centrally cleared swaps”). The swap agreement will specify the “notional” amount of the asset or non-asset reference to which the contract relates. Subsequent changes in fair value, if any, are calculated based upon changes in the performance of the asset or non-asset reference multiplied by the notional value of the contract. A Portfolio may enter into credit default, interest rate, total return and currency swaps to manage its exposure to credit, currency and interest rate risk. All outstanding swap agreements are reported within each Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments.
Swaps are marked to market daily using quotations primarily from third party pricing services, counterparties or brokers. The value of the swap contract is recorded on each Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the swap, if any, are recorded as unrealized gains or losses on the Statement of Operations. Upfront payments paid or received by a Portfolio when entering into the agreements are reported on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and as a component of the changes in unrealized gains or losses on the Statement of Operations. These upfront payments represent the amounts paid or received when initially entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and the prevailing market conditions. The upfront payments are included as a component in the realized gains or losses on each Portfolio’s Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A Portfolio also records net periodic payments paid or received on the swap contract as a realized gain or loss on the Statement of Operations.
In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is novated to a central counterparty (the “CCP”) and the Portfolio’s counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP. The Portfolios are required to interface with the CCP through a broker. Upon entering into a centrally cleared swap, the Portfolios are required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on the size and risk profile of the particular swap. Securities deposited as initial margin are footnoted as pledged on the Portfolio of Investments and cash deposited is recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged for centrally cleared swaps. The daily change in valuation of centrally cleared swaps is recorded as a receivable or payable for variation margin in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received from (paid to) the counterparty, including at termination, are recorded as realized gain (loss) on the Statements of Operations.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Entering into swap agreements involves the risk that the maximum potential loss of an investment exceeds the current value of the investment as reported on each Portfolio’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Other risks involve the possibility that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform, that there will be no liquid market for these investments and that unfavorable changes in the market will have a negative impact on the value of the index or securities underlying the respective swap agreement.
Credit Default Swap Contracts. A credit default swap is a bilateral agreement between counterparties in which the buyer of the protection agrees to make a stream of periodic payments to the seller of protection in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event for a referenced entity, obligation or index. As a seller of protection on credit default swaps, a Portfolio will generally receive from the buyer a fixed payment stream based on the notional amount of the swap contract. This fixed payment stream will continue until the swap contract expires or a defined credit event occurs.
A Portfolio is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. As a seller of protection in a credit default swap, a Portfolio may execute these contracts to manage its exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market. Certain Portfolios may also enter into credit default swaps to speculate on changes in an issuer’s credit quality, to take advantage of perceived spread advantages, or to offset an existing short equivalent (i.e. buying protection on an equivalent reference entity).
Certain Portfolios may sell credit default swaps which expose these Portfolios to the risk of loss from credit risk related events specified in the contract. Although contract specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default or repudiation/moratorium. If a Portfolio is a seller of protection, and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will generally either (i) pay to the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations, or underlying securities comprising a referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising a referenced index. If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular
swap agreement, a Portfolio will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. Recovery values are assumed by market makers considering either industry standard recovery rates or entity specific factors and considerations until a credit event occurs. If a credit event has occurred, the recovery value is determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specified valuation method, are used to calculate the settlement value.
Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues are disclosed in each Portfolio’s Portfolio 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 swaps on asset-backed securities or credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting fair values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing fair 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.
The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreements, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by a Portfolio for the same referenced entity or entities.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond bought and sold credit protection (Balanced only) on credit default swap indices (“CDX”). A CDX is a basket of credit instruments or exposures designed to be representative of some part of the credit market as a whole. Balanced and Intermediate Bond used CDX swaps to gain additional exposure with various
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
sectors of the credit market and to hedge the credit risk associated with various sectors within the credit market.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced had an average notional amount of $1,933,819 on credit default swaps to buy protection and an average notional amount of $483,120 on credit default swaps to sell protection. For the year ended December 31, 2020, Intermediate Bond had an average notional amount of $155,541,793 on credit default swaps to buy protection. Please refer to the tables within the Portfolio of Investments for Intermediate Bond for open credit default swaps to buy protection at December 31, 2020. Balanced did not have any open credit default swaps to buy or sell protection at December 31, 2020.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts. An interest rate swap involves the agreement between counterparties to exchange periodic payments based on interest rates. One payment will be based on a floating rate of a specified interest rate while the other will be a fixed rate. Risks involve the future fluctuations of interest rates in which a Portfolio may make payments that are greater than what a Portfolio received from the counterparty. Other risks include credit, liquidity and market risk.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced has entered into interest rate swaps in which they pay a floating interest rate and receive a fixed interest rate (“Long interest rate swap”) in order to increase exposure to interest rate risk. Average notional amounts on Long interest rate swaps were $1,759,000.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond has entered into interest rate swaps in which they pay a fixed interest rate and receive a floating interest rate (“Short interest rate swap”) in order to decrease exposure to interest rate risk. Average notional amounts on Short interest rate swaps were $1,478,667 and $48,229,000, respectively.
Balanced and Intermediate Bond entered into interest rate swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures and to substitute for physical fixed-income securities. The Portfolios did not have any open interest rate swaps at December 31, 2020.
At December 31, 2020, Intermediate Bond has pledged $4,816,000 in cash collateral for open centrally cleared credit default swaps.
Volatility Swap Contracts. Certain Portfolios may enter into volatility swaps. Volatility swaps are agreements in which the counterparties agree to make payments in connection with changes in the volatility (i.e., the magnitude of change over a specified period of time) of an
underlying referenced instrument, such as a currency, rate, index, security or other financial instrument. Volatility swaps permit the parties to attempt to hedge volatility risk and/or take positions on the projected future volatility of an underlying referenced instrument. As a receiver of the realized price volatility, a Portfolio would receive the payoff amount when the realized price volatility of the referenced instrument is greater than the strike and would owe the payoff amount when the volatility is less than the strike. As a payer of the realized price volatility, a Portfolio would owe the payoff amount when the realized price volatility of the referenced instrument is greater than the strike and would receive the payoff amount when the volatility is less than the strike.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had average notional amounts of $5,500 and $336,000, respectively, on foreign currency volatility swaps (receiver). The Portfolios did not have any open volatility swaps at December 31, 2020.
P. Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Registrants may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. The Registrants’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Portfolios and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, management considers the risk of loss from such claims remote.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES (continued)
The Distributor and the Investment Adviser have contractually agreed to waive a portion of their distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees and management fees, as applicable, and to reimburse certain expenses to the extent necessary to assist Government Money Market in maintaining a yield of not less than zero. There is no guarantee that the Portfolio will maintain such a yield.

NOTE 6 — OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES AND RELATED PARTIES
At December 31, 2020, the following direct or indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Voya Financial, Inc.owned more than 5% of the following Portfolios:
Subsidiary | | | Portfolio | | | Percentage | |
Voya Institutional Trust Company | | | Government Money Market | | | | | 5.25% | | |

| | | Intermediate Bond | | | | | 26.74 | | |
| | | Small Company | | | | | 61.99 | | |
The Investment Adviser may direct the Portfolios’ Sub-Adviser to use its best efforts (subject to obtaining best execution of each transaction) to allocate a Portfolio’s equity security transactions through certain designated broker-dealers. The designated broker-dealer, in turn, will reimburse a portion of the brokerage commissions to pay certain expenses of that Portfolio. Any amounts credited to the Portfolios are reflected as brokerage commission recapture on the accompanying Statements of Operations.
The Portfolios have adopted a deferred compensation plan (the “DC Plan”), which allows eligible independent directors/trustees, as described in the DC Plan, to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the directors’/trustees’ fees that they are entitled to receive from the Portfolios. For purposes of determining the amount owed to the director/trustee under the DC Plan, the amounts deferred are invested in shares of the funds selected by the director/trustee (the “Notional Funds”). When the Portfolios purchase shares of the Notional Funds, which are all advised by Voya Investments, in amounts equal to the directors’/trustees’ deferred fees, this results in a Portfolio asset equal to the deferred compensation liability. Such assets are included as a component of “Other assets” on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Deferral of directors’/trustees’ fees under the DC Plan will not affect net assets of the Portfolios, and will not materially affect the Portfolios’ assets, liabilities or net investment income per share. Amounts will be deferred until distributed in accordance with the DC Plan.
Effective January 1, 2020, the Portfolios may pay per account fees to affiliates of Voya Investments for recordkeeping services provided on certain assets. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the per account fees for affiliated recordkeeping services paid by each Portfolio were as follows:

Pursuant to a side letter agreement through May 1, 2021, the Investment Adviser has further lowered the expense limits to the levels listed below. Any fees waived pursuant to the side letter agreement shall not be eligible for recoupment.

Unless otherwise specified above and with the exception of the non-recoupable management fee waivers for certain Portfolios, the Investment Adviser may at a later date recoup from a Portfolio for fees waived and/or other expenses reimbursed by the Investment Adviser during the previous 36 months, but only if, after such recoupment, the Portfolio’s expense ratio does not exceed the percentage described above. Waived and reimbursed fees net of any recoupment by the Investment Adviser of such waived and reimbursed fees are reflected on the accompanying Statements of Operations.

NOTE 9 — LINE OF CREDIT
Effective May 15, 2020, each Portfolio, in addition to certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser, has entered into a 364-day unsecured committed revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”) for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 through May 14, 2021. The proceeds may be used only to finance temporarily: (1) the purchase or sale of investment securities; or (2) the repurchase or redemption of shares of a Portfolio or certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser. The funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount payable quarterly in arrears. Prior to May 15, 2020, the predecessor line of credit was for an aggregate amount of $400,000,000 and the funds to which the line of credit was available paid a commitment fee equal to 0.15% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount through May 15, 2020.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the federal funds rate plus a specified margin. Repayments generally must be made within 60 days after the date of a revolving credit advance.

NOTE 11 — SECURITIES LENDING
Under a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the “Agreement”) with BNY, each Portfolio (except Government Money Market) can lend their securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. government securities. The collateral is equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at Market Close of the Portfolios at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded and any additional collateral is delivered to the Portfolios on the next business day. The cash collateral received is invested in approved investments as defined in the Agreement with BNY. The Portfolios bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral with the following exception: BNY provides the Portfolios indemnification from loss with respect to the investment of collateral to the extent the cash collateral is invested in overnight repurchase agreements.
Cash collateral received in connection with securities lending is invested in cash equivalents, money market funds, repurchase agreements with maturities of not more than 99 days that are collateralized with U.S. Government securities, or certain short-term investments that have a remaining maturity of 190 days or less (“Permitted
Investments”). Short-term investments include: securities, units, shares or other participations in short-term investment funds, pools or trusts; commercial paper, notes, bonds or other debt obligations, certificates of deposit, time deposits and other bank obligations and asset-backed commercial paper backed by diversified receivables and repurchase-backed programs. Permitted Investments are subject to certain guidelines established by the Adviser regarding liquidity, diversification, credit quality and average credit life/duration requirements. The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Portfolio of Investments under Short-Term Investments.
Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolios have the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security; however, there would be a potential loss to the Portfolios in the event the Portfolios are delayed or prevented from exercising their right to dispose of the collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a portfolio.
The following tables represent a summary of each respective Portfolio’s securities lending agreements by counterparty which are subject to offset under the Agreement as of December 31, 2020:

NOTE 12 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of short-term capital gains, foreign currency transactions, futures contracts, income from passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), paydowns, straddle loss deferrals, swaps, capital loss carryforwards and wash sale deferrals.
Distributions in excess of net investment income and/or net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.
The following permanent tax differences have been reclassified as of December 31, 2020:
| | | Paid-in Capital | | | Distributable Earnings | |
Government Money Market | | | | $ | (66,383) | | | | | $ | 66,383 | | |
Intermediate Bond | | | | | 287,961 | | | | | | (287,961) | | |
Dividends paid by the Portfolios from net investment income and distributions of net realized short-term capital gains are, for federal income tax purposes, taxable as ordinary income to shareholders.

The Portfolios’ major tax jurisdictions are U.S. federal, Arizona state, and Massachusetts state.
As of December 31, 2020, no provision for income tax is required in the Portfolios’ financial statements as a result of tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for open tax years. The Portfolios’ federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue. Generally, the preceding four tax years remain subject to examination by these jurisdictions.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 13 — LONDON INTERBANK OFFERED RATE (“LIBOR”)
The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority has announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021, and it remains unclear whether LIBOR will continue to exist after that date and, if so, in what form. Actions by regulators have resulted in the establishment of alternative reference rates to LIBOR in many major currencies. The U.S. Federal Reserve Board, based on the recommendations of the New York Federal Reserve’s Alternative Reference Rate Committee (comprised of major derivative market participants and their regulators), has begun publishing a Secured Overnight Funding Rate (“SOFR”) that is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR. Proposals for alternative reference rates for other currencies have also been announced or have already begun publication.
Discontinuance of LIBOR and adoption/implementation of alternative rates pose a number of risks, including among others whether any substitute rate will experience the market participation and liquidity necessary to provide a workable substitute for LIBOR; the effect on parties’ existing contractual arrangements, hedging transactions, and investment strategies generally from a conversion from LIBOR to alternative rates; the effect on a Portfolio’s existing investments (including, for example, fixed-income investments; senior loans; CLOs and CDOs; and derivatives transactions), including the possibility that some of those investments may terminate or their terms may be adjusted to the disadvantage of a Portfolio; and the risk of general market disruption during the period of the conversion. It is difficult to predict at this time the likely impact of the transition away from LIBOR on a Portfolio. On November 30, 2020, the administrator of LIBOR announced a delay in the phase out of a majority of the U.S. dollar LIBOR publications until June 30, 2023, with the remainder of LIBOR publications to still end at the end of 2021.
NOTE 14 — MARKET DISRUPTION
A Portfolio is subject to the risk that geopolitical events will disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets. Due to the increasing interdependence among global economies and markets, conditions in one country, market, or region might adversely impact markets, issuers and/or foreign exchange rates in other countries, including the United States. War, terrorism, global health crises and pandemics, and other geopolitical events have led, and in the future may lead, to increased market volatility and may have adverse short- or long-term effects on U.S. and world economies and markets generally. For example, the COVID-19 pandemic
has resulted, and may continue to result, in significant market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, and a substantial economic downturn in economies throughout the world. Natural and environmental disasters and systemic market dislocations are also highly disruptive to economies and markets. Those events as well as other changes in non-U.S. and domestic economic, social, and political conditions also could adversely affect individual issuers or related groups of issuers, securities markets, interest rates, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the value of the investments of the portfolio and of the Portfolios. Any of these occurrences could disrupt the operations of a Portfolio and of the Portfolios’ service providers.
NOTE 15 — OTHER ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Portfolios have adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update 2018-13 (“ASU 2018-13”), Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 introduces new fair value disclosure requirements as well as provides guidance that eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The impact of the Portfolios’ adoption was limited to changes in the Portfolios’ financial statement disclosures regarding fair value, primarily those disclosures related to transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy and disclosure of the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements, when applicable. Upon evaluation, the Portfolios have concluded that the adoption of the new accounting standard does not materially impact the financial statement amounts.
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-04 (“ASU 2020-04”), Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) — Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional temporary financial reporting relief from the effect of certain types of contract modifications due to the planned discontinuation of LIBOR and other interbank-offered based reference rates as of the end of 2021. ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying ASU 2020-04.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of December 31, 2020 (continued)
NOTE 16 — REORGANIZATION
On August 23, 2019, Global High Dividend Low Volatility (“Acquiring Portfolio”) acquired all of the net assets and assumed all liabilities of VY® Templeton Global Growth Portfolio (“Acquired Portfolio”), an open-end investment company that is not included in this report, in a tax-free reorganization in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Portfolio, pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by the shareholders of the Acquired Portfolio on July 30, 2019. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by the Acquiring Portfolio were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Acquired Portfolio were carried forward to align ongoing reporting of the Acquiring Portfolio’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
Assuming the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2019, the beginning of the annual reporting period of the Acquiring Portfolio, the Acquiring Portfolio’s pro forma results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019, are as follows (Unaudited):
| Net investment income | | | | $ | 19,504,276 | | |
| Net realized and unrealized loss on investments | | | | $ | 105,448,232 | | |
| Net decrease in net assets resulting from operations | | | | $ | 124,952,508 | | |
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Acquired Portfolio that have been included in the Acquiring Portfolio’s statement of operations since August 23, 2019. Net assets and unrealized appreciation or depreciation as of the reorganization date were as follows:
| Total Net Assets of Acquired Portfolio (000s) | | | Total Net Assets of Acquiring Portfolio (000s) | | | Acquired Portfolio’ Capital Losss Carryforwards (000s) | | | Acquired Portfolio’s Unrealized Depreciation (000s) | | | Portfolios’ Conversion Ratio | |
| $120,666 | | | $556,430 | | | | $ | 17,820 | | | | $(1,879) | | | | | 0.7298 | | |
The net assets of the Acquiring Portfolio after the acquisition of Acquired Portfolio were $677,095,962.

Other Financial Instruments may include open forward foreign currency contracts, futures, centrally cleared swaps, OTC swaps and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts, futures and centrally cleared swaps are fair valued at the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the instrument. OTC swaps and written options are valued at the fair value of the instrument.
#
The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.
Transactions with Affiliates
An investment of at least 5% of the voting securities of an issuer, or a company which is under common control with the issuer, results in that issuer becoming an affiliated person as defined by the 1940 Act.
The following table provides transactions during the period ended December 31, 2020, where the following issuers were considered an affiliate:

The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a portion of the Portfolio’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.
At December 31, 2020, the aggregate cost of securities and other investments and the composition of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities and other investments on a tax basis were:

(1)
If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will either i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
(2)
Payments made quarterly.
(3)
The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make or receive as a buyer of credit protection under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement.
(4)
The fair values for credit default swap agreements 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. Increasing fair values, in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the agreement, represent a deterioration of the referenced obligation’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring.

ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited)
BOARD CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT CONTRACTS AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACTS
At a meeting held on November 19, 2020, the Board of Directors/Trustees (“Board”) of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Inc., Voya Government Money Market Portfolio, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio, Voya Variable Funds, and Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc. (collectively, the “Registrants”), including a majority of the Board members who have no direct or indirect interest in the management and sub-advisory contracts, and who are not “interested persons” of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Voya Global High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio, Voya Government Money Market Portfolio, Voya Growth and Income Portfolio, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio, and Voya Small Company Portfolio, each a series of the Registrants (the “Portfolios”), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Directors/Trustees”), considered and approved the renewal of the investment management contracts (the “Management Contracts”) between Voya Investments, LLC (the “Manager”) and the Registrants, on behalf of the Portfolios, and the sub-advisory contracts (the “Sub-Advisory Contracts,” and together with the Management Contracts, the “Contracts”) with Voya Investment Management Co. LLC, the sub-adviser to each Portfolio (the “Sub-Adviser”) for an additional one year period ending November 30, 2021.
In addition to the Board meeting on November 19, 2020, the Independent Directors/Trustees also held meetings outside the presence of personnel representing the Manager or Sub-Adviser (collectively, such persons are referred to herein as “management”) on October 8, 2020, and November 17, 2020. At those meetings the Board reviewed and considered materials related to the proposed continuance of the Contracts that they had requested and believed to be relevant to the renewal of the Contracts in light of their own business judgment and the legal advice furnished to them by K&L Gates LLP, their independent legal counsel. The Board also considered information furnished to it throughout the year at meetings of the Board and its committees, including information regarding performance, expenses, and other matters. While the Board considered the renewal of the management contracts and sub-advisory contracts for all of the applicable investment companies in the Voya family of funds at the same meetings, the Board considered each Voya fund’s investment management and sub-advisory relationships separately.
The Board has established a Contracts Committee and Investment Review Committees (the “IRCs”), each of which includes only Independent Directors/Trustees as members. The Contracts Committee meets several times
throughout the year to provide oversight with respect to the management and sub-advisory contracts approval and renewal process for each Voya fund, among other functions, and each IRC meets several times throughout the year with respect to each Voya fund that is assigned to that IRC to provide oversight regarding the investment performance of the sub-advisers, as well as the Manager’s role in monitoring the sub-advisers.
The Contracts Committee oversees, and annually recommends Board approval of updates to, a methodology guide for the Voya funds (“Methodology Guide”), which sets out a framework pursuant to which the Independent Directors/Trustees request, and management provides, certain information that the Independent Directors/Trustees deem to be important or potentially relevant. The Independent Directors/Trustees retain the services of an independent consultant with experience in the mutual fund industry to assist the Contracts Committee in developing and recommending to the Board: (1) a selected peer group of investment companies for each Portfolio (“Selected Peer Group”) based on that Portfolio’s particular attributes, such as fund type and size, fund category (as determined by Morningstar, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data (“Morningstar”)), sales channels and structure and the Portfolio share class being compared to the Selected Peer Group; and (2) updates to the Methodology Guide with respect to the content and format of various data prepared in connection with the renewal process, including, but not limited to, investment performance, fee structure, and expense information. In addition, the Independent Directors/Trustees periodically have retained an independent firm to test and verify the accuracy of certain information presented to the Board for a representative sample of the Voya funds.
The Manager or the Sub-Adviser may not have been able to, or opted not to, provide information in response to certain information requests, in which case the Board conducted its evaluation of the firm based on information that was provided. In such cases, the Board determined that the omission of any such information was not material to its considerations. Additionally, the Board considered the impact of significant market volatility that occurred during and after the period for which information was requested in conducting its evaluation of the Manager and the Sub-Adviser.
Provided below is an overview of certain material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding the renewal of the Contracts and the compensation to be paid thereunder. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was most relevant to its consideration, and each Board member may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching
ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
his or her conclusions with respect to each Portfolio’s investment management and sub-advisory arrangements.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
The Manager oversees, subject to the authority of the Board, and is responsible for the provision of, all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Portfolios, but may delegate certain of these responsibilities to one or more sub-advisers. In addition, the Manager provides administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the Portfolios as set forth in the Management Contracts, including oversight of the Portfolios’ operations and risk management and the oversight of their various other service providers.
The Board considered the “manager-of-managers” platform of the Voya funds that has been developed by the Manager pursuant to which the Manager selects, subject to the Board’s approval, sub-advisers to provide day-to-day management services to all or a portion of each Voya fund. The Board recognized that the Manager is responsible for monitoring the investment program, performance, developments, ongoing operations, and compliance with applicable regulations and investment policies and restrictions of the Sub-Adviser with respect to the Portfolios under this manager-of-managers arrangement. The Board also considered the techniques and resources that the Manager has developed to provide this ongoing oversight and due diligence with respect to the sub-advisers and to advocate or recommend, when it believes appropriate, changes in investment strategies or investment sub-advisers designed to assist in improving a Voya fund’s performance. In connection with the Manager’s performance of these duties, the Board considered that the Manager has developed an oversight process formulated by its Manager Research & Selection Group which reviews, among other matters, performance data, the Sub-Adviser’s management team, portfolio data and attribution analysis related to the Sub-Adviser through various means, including, but not limited to, in-person meetings, on-site or virtual visits, and telephonic meetings with the Sub-Adviser.
Further, the Board considered periodic compliance reports it receives from the Registrants’ Chief Compliance Officer evaluating whether the regulatory compliance systems and procedures of the Manager and the Sub-Adviser are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the federal securities laws and whether the investment policies and restrictions for each Portfolio are consistently complied with, and other periodic reports covering related matters.
The Board considered the portfolio management team assigned by the Sub-Adviser to the Portfolios and the level of resources committed to the Portfolios (and other
relevant funds in the Voya funds) by the Manager and the Sub-Adviser, and whether those resources are sufficient to provide high-quality services to the Portfolios.
Based on their deliberations and the materials presented to them, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the overall services provided by the Manager and the Sub-Adviser under the Contracts were appropriate.
Portfolio Performance
In assessing the investment management and sub-advisory relationships, the Board placed emphasis on the investment returns of each Portfolio, including its investment performance over certain time periods compared to the Portfolio’s Morningstar category and primary benchmark, a broad-based securities market index identified in the Portfolio’s prospectus. In addition, the Board considered Voya Global High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio’s investment performance compared to an additional performance peer group that is approved by the Portfolio’s IRC due to the unique investment structure or strategy of the Portfolio. The Board also considered information from the Manager Research & Selection Group and received reports summarizing a separate analysis of each Portfolio’s performance and risk, including risk-adjusted investment return information, from the Registrants’ Chief Investment Risk Officer.
Economies of Scale
When evaluating the reasonableness of the management fee schedules, the Board considered whether economies of scale have been or likely will be realized by the Manager and the Sub-Adviser as a Portfolio grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are shared with the Portfolio. In this regard, the Board noted any breakpoints in management fee schedules that will result in a lower management fee rate when a Portfolio achieves sufficient asset levels to receive a breakpoint discount. The Board also considered that, while some of the Portfolios do not have management fee breakpoints, the Portfolios may have fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements. The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale realized by the Manager or the Sub-Adviser could be shared with each Portfolio through such fee waivers, expense reimbursements or other expense reductions. The Board also considered the impact of fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements in instances where a share class of a Portfolio is operating such that its expense ratio is below the expense limit applicable to that share class. In evaluating these matters, the Independent Directors/Trustees also considered periodic management reports, Selected Peer Group comparisons, and industry information regarding economies of scale. In the case of sub-advisory fees, the
ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
Board considered that breakpoints, if any, would inure to the benefit of the Manager.
Information Regarding Services, Performance, and Fee Schedules Offered to Other Clients
The Board considered comparative information regarding the nature of services, performance, and fee schedules offered by the Manager and the Sub-Adviser to other clients with similar investment objectives, if applicable, including other registered investment companies and relevant institutional accounts. When the fee schedules offered to or the performance of such other clients differed materially from a Portfolio, the Board took into account the underlying rationale provided by the Manager or the Sub-Adviser, as applicable, for these differences.
Fee Schedules, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits
The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee schedule and net management fee rate payable by each Portfolio to the Manager compared to the Portfolio’s Selected Peer Group. The Board also considered the compensation payable by the Manager to the Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services for each Portfolio, including the portion of the contractual and net management fee rates that are paid to the Sub-Adviser, as compared to the compensation paid to the Manager. In addition, the Board considered any fee waivers, expense limitations, and recoupment arrangements that apply to the fees payable by the Portfolios, including whether the Manager intends to propose any changes thereto. For each Portfolio, the Board separately determined that the fees payable to the Manager and the fee schedule payable to the Sub-Adviser are reasonable for the services that each performs, which were considered in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services that each has performed and is expected to perform.
For each Portfolio, the Board considered information on revenues, costs and profits or losses realized by the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser related to their services to the Portfolio. In analyzing the profitability of the Manager and its affiliated service providers in connection with services they render to a Portfolio, the Board took into account the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Manager to the Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered the profitability of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser attributable to servicing each Portfolio both with and without taking into account the profitability of the distributor of the Portfolios and any revenue sharing payments made by the Manager and both before and after giving effect to any expenses incurred by the Manager or the affiliated Sub-Adviser in making payments to affiliated insurance companies.
Although the Methodology Guide establishes a framework for profit calculation, the Board recognized that there is no uniform methodology within the asset management industry for determining profitability for this purpose. The Board also recognized that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to dramatically different reported profit and loss results with respect to the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser, as well as other industry participants with whom the profits of the Manager and its affiliated Sub-Adviser could be compared. In addition, the Board recognized that management’s calculations regarding its costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the Portfolios’ operations may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to each Portfolio in determining profitability, and that the information presented may not portray all of the costs borne by the Manager or reflect all risks, including entrepreneurial, regulatory, legal and operational risks, associated with offering and managing a mutual fund complex in the current regulatory and market environment.
The Board also considered that the Manager and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser are entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for the services that they provide to the Portfolios. The Board also considered information regarding the potential fall-out benefits to the Manager and Sub-Adviser and their respective affiliates from their association with the Portfolios, including their ability to engage in soft-dollar transactions on behalf of the Portfolios. Following its reviews, the Board determined that the Manager’s and the Voya-affiliated Sub-Adviser’s profitability with respect to their services to the Portfolios and the Manager and Sub-Adviser’s potential fall-out benefits were not unreasonable.
Portfolio-by-Portfolio Analysis
Set forth below are certain of the specific factors that the Board considered at its October 7, 2020, November 17, 2020, and/or November 19, 2020 meetings in relation to approving each Portfolio’s Contracts and the conclusions reached by the Board. These specific factors are in addition to those considerations discussed above. In each case, the Portfolio’s performance was compared to its Morningstar category, as well as its primary benchmark and, as applicable, a performance peer group. The performance data provided to the Board primarily was for various periods ended March 31, 2020. In addition, the Board also considered at its October 7, 2020, November 17, 2020, and November 19, 2020 meetings certain additional data regarding each Portfolio’s more recent performance, asset levels and asset flows. Each Portfolio’s management fee rate and expense ratio were compared to the management fee rates and expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. With respect
ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
to the quintile rankings noted below, the first quintile represents the range of funds with the highest performance or the lowest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable, and the fifth quintile represents the range of funds with the lowest performance or the highest management fee rate or expense ratio, as applicable.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
Appendix A
AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
PRE-APPROVAL POLICY
I. Statement of Principles
Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”), the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors or Trustees (the “Committee”) of the Voya funds (each a “Fund,” collectively, the “Funds”) set out on Exhibit A to this Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (“Policy”) is responsible for the oversight of the work of the Funds’ independent auditors. As part of its responsibilities, the Committee must pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the auditors in order to assure that the provision of these services does not impair the auditors’ independence from the Funds. The Committee has adopted, and the Board has ratified, this Policy, which sets out the procedures and conditions under which the services of the independent auditors may be pre-approved.
Under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules promulgated in accordance with the Act, the Funds may establish two different approaches to pre-approving audit and non-audit services. The Committee may approve services without consideration of specific case-by-case services (“general pre-approval”) or it may pre-approve specific services (“specific pre-approval”). The Committee believes that the combination of these approaches contemplated in this Policy results in an effective and efficient method for pre-approving audit and non-audit services to be performed by the Funds’ independent auditors. Under this Policy, services that are not of a type that may receive general pre-approval require specific pre-approval by the Committee. Any proposed services that exceed pre-approved cost levels or budgeted amounts will also require the Committee’s specific pre-approval.
For both types of approval, the Committee considers whether the subject services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence and that such services are compatible with maintaining the auditors independence. The Committee also considers whether a particular audit firm is in the best position to provide effective and efficient services to the Funds. Reasons that the auditors are in the best position include the auditors’ familiarity with the Funds’ business, personnel, culture, accounting systems, risk profile, and other factors, and whether the services will enhance the Funds’ ability to manage and control risk or improve audit quality. Such factors will be considered as a whole, with no one factor being determinative.
The appendices attached to this Policy describe the audit, audit-related, tax-related, and other services that have the Committee’s general pre-approval. For any service that has been approved through general pre-approval, the general pre-approval will remain in place for a period 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Committee determines that a different period is appropriate. The Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the independent auditors without specific pre-approval. The Committee will revise the list of services subject to general pre-approval as appropriate. This Policy does not serve as a delegation to Fund management of the Committee’s duty to pre-approve services performed by the Funds’ independent auditors.
II. Audit Services
The annual audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the Committee’s specific pre-approval. Audit services are those services that are normally provided by auditors in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements or those that generally only independent auditors can reasonably provide. They include the Funds’ annual financial statement audit and procedures that the independent auditors must perform in order to form an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements (e.g., information systems and procedural reviews and testing). The Committee will monitor the audit services engagement and approve any changes in terms, conditions or fees deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate.
The Committee may grant general pre-approval to other audit services, such as statutory audits and services associated with SEC registration statements, periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or issued in connection with securities offerings.
The Committee has pre-approved the audit services listed on Appendix A. The Committee must specifically approve all audit services not listed on Appendix A.
III. Audit-related Services
Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or the review of the Funds’ financial statements or are traditionally performed by the independent auditors. The Committee believes that the provision of audit-related services will not impair the independent auditors’ independence, and therefore may grant pre-approval to audit-related services. Audit-related services include accounting consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as “audit services;” assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; agreed-upon or expanded audit procedures relating to accounting and/or billing records required to respond to or comply with financial, accounting or regulatory reporting matters; and assistance with internal control reporting requirements under Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR.
The Committee has pre-approved the audit-related services listed on Appendix B. The Committee must specifically approve all audit-related services not listed on Appendix B.
IV. Tax Services
The Committee believes the independent auditors can provide tax services to the Funds, including tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice, without compromising the auditors’ independence. Therefore, the Committee may grant general pre-approval with respect to tax services historically provided by the Funds’ independent auditors that do not, in the Committee’s view, impair auditor independence and that are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.
The Committee will not grant pre-approval if the independent auditors initially recommends a transaction the sole business purpose of which is tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Committee may consult outside counsel to determine that tax planning and reporting positions are consistent with this Policy.
The Committee has pre-approved the tax-related services listed on Appendix C. The Committee must specifically approve all tax-related services not listed on Appendix C.
V. Other Services
The Committee believes it may grant approval of non-audit services that are permissible services for independent auditors to a Fund. The Committee has determined to grant general pre-approval to other services that it believes are routine and recurring, do not impair auditor independence, and are consistent with SEC rules on auditor independence.
The Committee has pre-approved the non-audit services listed on Appendix D. The Committee must specifically approve all non-audit services not listed on Appendix D.
A list of the SEC’s prohibited non-audit services is attached to this Policy as Appendix E. The SEC’s rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise definitions of these impermissible services and the applicability of exceptions to certain of the SEC’s prohibitions.
VI. Pre-approval of Fee levels and Budgeted Amounts
The Committee will annually establish pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for audit, audit-related, tax and non-audit services to be provided to the Funds by the independent auditors. Any proposed services exceeding these levels or amounts require the Committee’s specific pre-approval. The Committee considers fees for audit and non-audit services when deciding whether to pre-approve services. The Committee may determine, for a pre-approval period of 12 months, the appropriate ratio between the total amount of fees for the Fund’s audit, audit-related, and tax services (including fees for services provided to Fund affiliates that are subject to pre-approval), and the total amount of fees for certain permissible non-audit services for the Fund classified as other services (including any such services provided to Fund affiliates that are subject to pre-approval).
VII. Procedures
Requests or applications for services to be provided by the independent auditors will be submitted to management. If management determines that the services do not fall within those services generally pre-approved by the Committee and set out in the appendices to these procedures, management will submit the services to the Committee or its delagee. Any such submission will include a detailed description of the services to be rendered. Notwithstanding this paragraph, the Committee will, on a quarterly basis, receive from the independent auditors a list of services provided for the previous calendar quarter on a cumulative basis by the auditors during the Pre-Approval Period.
VIII. Delegation
The Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of the Committee’s members. Any member or members to whom such pre-approval authority is delegated must report any pre-approval decisions, including any pre-approved services, to the Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Committee will identify any member to whom pre-approval authority is delegated in writing. The member will retain such authority for a period of 12 months from the date of pre-approval unless the Committee determines that a different period is appropriate. The period of delegated authority may be terminated by the Committee or at the option of the member.
IX. Additional Requirements
The Committee will take any measures the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to oversee the work of the independent auditors and to assure the auditors’ independence from the Funds. This may include reviewing a formal written statement from the independent auditors delineating all relationships between the auditors and the Funds, consistent with Independence Standards Board No. 1, and discussing with the auditors their methods and procedures for ensuring independence.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Voya Global High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio (formerly, Voya Global Equity Portfolio), Voya Government Money Market Portfolio, Voya Growth and Income Portfolio, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Voya Small Company Portfolio and the Boards of Directors/Trustees of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Inc., Voya Variable Funds, Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc., Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Voya Government Money Market Portfolio
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Voya Global High Dividend Low Volatility Portfolio (formerly, Voya Global Equity Portfolio), Voya Government Money Market Portfolio, Voya Growth and Income Portfolio, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Voya Small Company Portfolio (the “Portfolios”) (each a portfolio of Voya Balanced Portfolio, Inc., Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc., Voya Government Money Market Portfolio, Voya Variable Funds, Voya Intermediate Bond Portfolio and Voya Variable Portfolios, Inc., respectively (collectively referred to as the “Registrants”)), including the portfolio of investments and summary portfolios of investments, as applicable, as of December 31, 2020, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the year then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”) (the financial statements are included in Item 1 of this Form N-CSR) and the portfolios of investments as of December 31, 2020 (included in Item 6 of this Form N-CSR). In our opinion, the financial statements and portfolios of investments present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Portfolios at December 31, 2020, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and their financial highlights for the year then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The statement of changes in net assets for the year ended December 31, 2019, and the financial highlights for each of the periods in the four-year period then ended, were audited by another independent registered public accounting firm whose report, dated February 26, 2020, expressed an unqualified opinion on that statement of changes in net assets and those financial highlights.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements and portfolios of investments are the responsibility of the Registrants’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Portfolios’ financial statements and portfolios of investments based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Registrants in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and portfolios of investments are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Registrants are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Registrants’ internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Registrants’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and portfolios of investments, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and portfolios of investments. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2020, by correspondence with the custodian and others or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from others were not received. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and portfolios of investments. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
