In February 2020, the Board of Trustees of each Fund, having determined that a reorganization of that Fund was in the best interest of the Fund, voted to approve an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to reorganize the Fund (each, a Target Fund) with and into the corresponding acquiring fund presented in the table below (each, an Acquiring Fund). Pursuant to applicable law (including the Investment Company Act of 1940), each reorganization may be implemented without obtaining shareholder approval. The reorganizations are expected to occur in the third quarter of 2020 and are expected to be a tax-free reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Additional information about the reorganizations will be made available to shareholders in a Combined Information Statement/Prospectus prior to the reorganization date.

The foregoing is not an offer to sell, nor a solicitation of an offer to buy, shares of any Acquiring Fund, nor is it a solicitation of any proxy. Because each Target Fund will reorganize into the corresponding Acquiring Fund on its reorganization date, you should consider the appropriateness of making a new or subsequent investment in the Target Fund prior to its reorganization date. You should consider the investment objectives, risks, strategies, fees and expenses of an Acquiring Fund and/or Target Fund carefully before investing. To obtain an Acquiring Fund's current prospectus, shareholder reports and other regulatory filings, contact your financial intermediary or visit columbiathreadneedleus.com.
Shareholders should retain this Supplement for future reference.
