Introduction
March 18, 2016
Dear PACE Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide you with the semiannual report for the PACE portfolios (the "Portfolios"), comprising the PACE Select Advisors Trust. This report includes summaries of the performance of each Portfolio, as well as commentaries from the investment advisor and subadvisors regarding the events that affected Portfolio performance during the six months ended January 31, 2016. Please note that the opinions of the subadvisors do not necessarily represent those of UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc.
Generally moderate global growth
The US economy continued to expand, but the pace was uneven during the reporting period. The US Commerce Department reported that gross domestic product ("GDP") expanded at a 3.9% seasonally adjusted annualized rate during the second quarter of 2015. GDP growth then slowed to a 2.0% rate for the third quarter of the year. Finally, the Commerce Department's initial estimate for fourth-quarter GDP growth was 0.7%.
The US Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed") took its initial step toward normalizing monetary policy during the reporting period. In December 2015, the Fed raised the fed funds rate for the first time in nearly a decade. The US central bank boosted the fed funds rate from a range of 0% to 0.25% to a range between 0.25% and 0.50%.1 In its official statement the Fed said, "The stance of monetary policy remains accommodative after this increase, thereby supporting further improvement in labor market conditions and a return to 2% inflation...The Committee expects that economic conditions will evolve in a manner that will warrant only gradual increases in the federal funds rate; the federal funds rate is likely to remain, for some time, below levels that are expected to prevail in the longer run."
Growth outside the US was mixed during the reporting period. In its January 2016 World Economic Outlook Update, the International Monetary Fund ("IMF") said, "In advanced economies, a modest and uneven recovery is expected to continue, with a gradual further narrowing of output gaps. The picture for emerging market and developing economies is diverse but in many cases challenging." From a regional perspective, the IMF estimates that 2015 growth in the eurozone was 1.5%, versus 0.9% in 2014. Japan's economy was believed to have expanded 0.6% in 2015, versus 0.0% in 2014. Elsewhere, the IMF estimated that overall growth in emerging market countries moderated in 2015, with growth of 4.0% versus 4.6% in 2014.
Global equities post poor results
The global equity market experienced several periods of heightened volatility over the six months ended January 31, 2016. Investor sentiment fluctuated given mixed economic data and corporate earnings reports, uncertainties regarding future monetary policy and numerous geopolitical issues. Risk aversion was elevated during the third quarter of 2015, as the global equity market experienced its first correction (a decline of at least 10%) since 2011. The market then rallied sharply in October 2015 but ended the period on a weak note, as there was another correction in January 2016. All told, the US stock market, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, fell 6.77% for the six months ended January 31, 2016.2 International equities produced very poor results, as they were negatively impacted by moderating growth, fears of a "hard landing" for China's economy and sharply falling commodity prices. International developed equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index (net), declined
1 The federal funds rate, or the "fed funds rate," is the rate banks charge one another for funds they borrow on an overnight basis.

14.58% during the period.3 Emerging market equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net), fell 16.96% over the same period.4
Mixed returns in the fixed income market
The global fixed income markets were not immune from periodic bouts of risk aversion during the reporting period. Mixed signals from the Fed regarding the timing for interest rate "liftoff" was just one of the factors impacting fixed income prices. The yield on the US 10-year Treasury fell from 2.20% to 1.94% during the reporting period and the overall US bond market, as measured by the Barclays US Aggregate Index, gained 1.33%.5 Returns of riskier fixed income securities were generally weak for the six months ended January 31, 2016. High yield bonds, as measured by the BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Cash Pay Constrained Index declined 7.76%, while emerging markets debt, as measured by the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (EMBI Global), fell 1.13% during the reporting period.6,7

This report is intended to assist investors in understanding how the Portfolios performed during the six-month period ended January 31, 2016. The views expressed in the Advisor's and Subadvisors' comments sections are as of the end of the reporting period, reflect performance results gross of fees and expenses, and are those of the investment advisor (with respect to PACE Government Money Market Investments only) and subadvisors. Subadvisors' comments on Portfolios that have more than one subadvisor are reflective of their portion of the Portfolio only. The views and opinions in this report were current as of March 18, 2016. They are not guarantees of future performance or investment results and should not be taken as investment advice. Investment decisions reflect a variety of factors, and the investment advisor and subadvisors reserve the right to change their views about individual securities, sectors and markets at any time. As a result, the views expressed should not be relied upon as a forecast of a Portfolio's future investment intent.
3 The MSCI EAFE Index (net) is an index of stocks designed to measure the investment returns of developed economies outside of North America. Net total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties. The index is constructed and managed with a view to being fully investable from the perspective of international institutional investors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
4 The MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net) is a market-capitalization-weighted index composed of different emerging market countries in Europe, Latin America and the Pacific Basin. Net total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties. The index is constructed and managed with a view to being fully investable from the perspective of international institutional investors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
5 The Barclays US Aggregate Index is an unmanaged broad-based index designed to measure the US dollar-denominated, investment grade, taxable bond market. The index includes bonds from the Treasury, government-related, corporate, mortgage-backed, asset-backed and commercial mortgage-backed sectors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
6 The BofA Merrill Lynch US High Yield Cash Pay Constrained Index is an unmanaged index of publicly placed non-convertible, coupon-bearing, US dollar-denominated, below investment grade corporate debt with a term to maturity of at least one year. The index is market-capitalization weighted, so that larger bond issuers have a greater effect on the index's return. However, the representation of any single bond issue is restricted to a maximum of 2% of the total index. The index is not leveraged. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
7 The J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (EMBI Global) is an unmanaged index which is designed to track total returns for US dollar-denominated debt instruments issued by emerging market sovereign and quasi-sovereign entities: Brady bonds, loans and Eurobonds. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.

PACE Government Money Market Investments
On September 22, 2015, the Portfolio's Board of Trustees ("the Board") approved a new policy on behalf of the Portfolio to invest at least 99.5% of its total assets in cash, government securities and/or repurchase agreements that are collateralized fully by cash or government securities to allow the Portfolio to qualify as a government money market fund, as defined under the amended Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. In addition, the Board approved changing the Portfolio's name to PACE Government Money Market Investments to ensure that the Portfolio is understood to be a government money market fund. In connection with the change to the Portfolio's name, the Portfolio also adopted a nonfundamental investment policy that the Portfolio invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in government securities, including government securities subject to repurchase agreements. The changes became effective on November 28, 2015.
Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio returned 0.01% before the deduction of the maximum PACE program fee.1 Please remember that the PACE program fee is assessed outside the Portfolio at the PACE program account level. The program fee does not impact the determination of the Portfolio's net asset value per share. For comparison purposes, the median return of the Lipper Money Market Funds category was 0.01%. (Returns over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 6. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.) For a detailed commentary on the market environment in general during the period, please refer to page 2.
Advisor's comments
In December 2015, the US Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed") modestly raised the federal funds rate from a historically low range between 0% and 0.25% to a range between 0.25% and 0.50%.The federal funds rate or the "fed funds rate," is the rate US banks charge one another for funds they borrow on an overnight basis. (For more details on the Fed's actions, see page 2.) While the yields on a wide range of short-term investments moved higher over the period as the market anticipated the Fed action as well as potential future actions into 2016, yields still remain low by historical comparison. As a result, the Portfolio's yields remained low during the reporting period.
We tactically adjusted the Portfolio's weighted average maturity ("WAM") throughout the six-month review period. When the reporting period began, the Portfolio had a WAM of 38 days. This was decreased to 20 days at the end of the reporting period.

Advisor's comments – concluded
Several adjustments were made to the Portfolio's sector and issuer positioning during the six-month period due to the Fund's aforementioned change to a government money market fund. We significantly increased the Portfolio's exposures to, US government and agency obligations and repurchase agreements. Conversely, we eliminated our allocation to commercial paper, certificates of deposit and short-term corporate obligations. (Repurchase agreements are transactions in which the seller of a security agrees to buy it back at a predetermined time and price or upon demand.)

Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio's Class P shares gained 1.53% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Barclays US Mortgage-Backed Securities Index (the "benchmark") rose 1.87%, and the Lipper US Mortgage Funds category posted a median return of 1.25%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 12. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.) For a detailed commentary on the market environment in general during the reporting period, please refer to page 2.
Subadvisor's comments2
(Please note that while the subadvisor outperformed the benchmark on a gross-of-fees basis, the Portfolio underperformed net of fees, as reported in the "Performance at a glance" table. As stated in footnote two, the comments that follow address performance on a gross-of-fees basis.)
We outperformed the Fund's benchmark during the reporting period. An underweight to US duration was negative for performance as the yield on the 10-year US Treasury fell 26 basis points (0.26%) over the six-month period. (Duration measures a portfolio's sensitivity to interest rate changes.)
An overall overweight to agency mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") was positive for results as the sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. Relative value positioning within agency MBS also added to returns, as lower coupon securities generally outperformed their higher coupon counterparts. An underweight to 15-year conventional securities (Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac) detracted from performance as this segment outperformed 30-year conventional securities. Additionally, an overweight to Ginnie Mae bonds for most of the period contributed to performance as they outperformed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgages. Elsewhere, an allocation to non-agency MBS was beneficial for results as prices on selected securities rose amid continued limited supply.
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All subadvisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Objective:
Current income
Investment process:
The Portfolio invests primarily in government fixed income securities which include US bonds, including those backed by mortgages, and related repurchase agreements. Mortgage-backed securities include "to be announced" or "TBA" securities, which usually are traded on a forward commitment basis with an approximate principal amount and no defined maturity date; issued or guaranteed by US government agencies and instrumentalities. The Portfolio also invests, to a lesser extent, in investment grade bonds of private issuers, including those backed by mortgages or other assets. The Portfolio may invest in bonds of varying maturities, but normally limits its duration to within +/- 50% of the effective duration of the Portfolio's benchmark index.3 (Duration is a measure of a portfolio's sensitivity to interest rate changes.) The Portfolio may engage in short selling with respect to securities issued by the US Treasury and certain TBA securities coupon trades. PIMCO establishes duration targets

Subadvisor's comments – concluded
Overall, derivative usage was positive during the period, primarily due to income generated from selling mortgage pool options as a way to manage interest rate and volatility risk within the sector. The Portfolio also used interest rate swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures, as well as to substitute for physical securities. Additionally, options on swaps (swaptions) were used to manage interest rate and volatility exposures, as well as to generate income in expected interest rate scenarios. Government treasury futures were utilized to adjust interest rate exposures and replicate government bond positions.
Investment process (concluded)
based on its expectations for changes in interest rates, and then positions the Portfolio to take advantage of yield curve shifts. PIMCO decides to buy and sell specific bonds based on an analysis of their values relative to other similar securities.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking current income who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the fixed income markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The yield and value of the Portfolio change every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the issuers in which the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.07% and 0.97%; Class C—1.59% and 1.47% ; Class Y—0.86% and 0.72%; and Class P—0.91% and 0.72% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to: (1) waive its management fees through November 30, 2016 to the extent necessary to reflect the lower subadvisory fee paid by UBS AM to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC, the Portfolio's investment advisor; and (2) waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—0.97%; Class C—1.47% ; Class Y—0.72%; and Class P—0.72%. The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses (pursuant to item (2)) to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed this expense cap and that UBS AM has not waived the right to do so. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 4.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 0.75% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Barclays US Mortgage-Backed Securities Index is an unmanaged index which primarily covers the mortgage-backed pass-through securities issued by Ginnie Mae (formally known as the Government National Mortgage Association or GNMA), Freddie Mac (formally known as Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation or FHLMC), and Fannie Mae (formally known as Federal National Mortgage Association or FNMA). Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

4 Variable or floating rate security. The interest rate shown is the current rate as of January 31, 2016 and changes periodically.
5 Security exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. These securities, which represent 9.15% of net assets as of January 31, 2016, are considered liquid and may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers.
6 Step bond that converts to the noted fixed rate at a designated future date.
7 Principal Only Security. This security entitles the holder to receive principal payments from an underlying pool of assets. High prepayments return principal faster than expected and cause the yield to increase. Low prepayments return principal more slowly than expected and cause the yield to decrease.
8 Interest Only Securities. These securities entitle the holder to receive interest payments from an underlying pool of mortgages. The risk associated with this security is related to the speed of the principal paydowns. High prepayments would result in a smaller amount of interest being received and cause the yield to decrease. Low prepayments would result in a greater amount of interest being received and cause the yield to increase.
9 Payments made or received are based on the notional amount.

Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio's Class P shares gained 0.34% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Barclays US Intermediate Government/Credit Index (the "benchmark") rose 1.12%, and the Lipper Core Bond Funds category posted a median return of 0.45%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 30. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.) For a detailed commentary on the market environment in general during the reporting period, please refer to page 2.
Subadvisors' comments2
(Please note that while the subadvisor outperformed the benchmark on a gross-of-fees basis, the Portfolio underperformed net of fees, as reported in the "Performance at a glance" table. As stated in footnote two, the comments that follow address performance on a gross-of-fees basis.)
BlackRock
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. The largest detractor from results was our allocation to commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"), followed by our Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities ("TIPS") exposure. Our high yield credit allocation and security selection of investment grade credit also slightly detracted from returns. Our barbell positioning in the energy sector of being overweight the midstream sub-sector against exploration and production ("E&P") names failed to materialize, leading to selection underperformance for the period. Spread sectors generally widened over the period, in-line with the broad sentiment of risk aversion present in the market. Helping to offset the underperformance was our duration positioning, largely due to timely trades around key event dates over the period. Underweight positioning to emerging markets, as well as superior security selection in the sector, also aided our results. This was predominantly driven by our favorable view of Mexico versus Brazil and Turkey. Credit markets, including emerging markets, have become bifurcated and volatility has ticked up, leading to attractive opportunities,

Investment process:
BlackRock The Portfolio invests primarily in fixed income securities. BlackRock decides to buy specific bonds based on its credit analysis and review. BlackRock strives to add value by controlling the Portfolio's duration within a narrow band relative to the Barclays US Intermediate Government/Credit Index. To accomplish this, BlackRock employs an analytical process that involves evaluating macroeconomic trends, technical market factors, yield-curve exposure and market
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.

Subadvisors' comments – continued
if timed well. We believe our portion of the Portfolio is poised to take advantage of the dispersion in the marketplace given its low risk positioning entering the latter half of the reporting period.
A number of derivatives instruments were used during the reporting period, primarily to adjust our duration and curve exposure, as well as to hedge risk. We believe that derivatives are beneficial for performance as they help us manage our portion of the Portfolio more efficiently. Interest rate swaps are the most common type of swap and they were useful in managing exposure to interest rates by adding duration to or subtracting it at particular points on the yield curve. Credit default swaps were used to provide insurance or protection against a particular issuer or basket of issuers defaulting. Credit default swaps were used as a way to express a negative or positive view on an issuer's or group of issuers' credit strength. Options on interest rate swaps (swaptions) were used to hedge convexity, as well as take a view on volatility and interest rates. Foreign exchange forward contracts were typically used to hedge non-US dollar currency risk back to the US dollar, as well as to implement active currency positions.
Babson Capital Management
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. Fixed income markets struggled in the second half of 2015, less so from rising rates than from heightened credit concerns. Spread volatility over the past six months has been high and spreads have widened relative to US Treasury bonds due to similar themes cited previously, including slow economic activity globally and in the US, along with a sell-off in commodity-related sectors. Corporate spreads widened significantly in December 2015 and January 2016, with BB-rated high yield bonds, investment grade bonds and convertible securities bearing the brunt of the decline. Oil & gas producers and oil service companies, across ratings, were our main detractors from our results. We have been reducing exposure to these sectors over the last two months of the reporting period. Conversely, the asset management, satellite TV and real estate investment trust ("REIT") sectors contributed to performance. From a positioning standpoint, our allocation to banking has increased, as the regulatory environment has resulted in improved capital levels and less exposure to higher risk business lines. This supports our favorable view of both senior and subordinated bank paper over the intermediate term.
The securitized sector contributed to performance over the period. This was fairly broad-based, as US agency mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities and non-agency residential mortgage-backed securities ("RMBS") all added value. However, our consumer asset-backed securities ("ABS") detracted from results due to weak student loan performance and rating agency actions.
Investment process (concluded)
volatility. Once BlackRock establishes the investment themes on duration, yield curve exposure, convexity, sector weighting, credit quality and liquidity, the Portfolio's investments are diversified by sector, subsector and security.
Babson seeks to invest primarily in a diversified portfolio of short-term fixed income securities through an investment process that consists of a top-down, macroeconomic view, coupled with a bottom-up perspective driven by rigorous fundamental credit analysis. Babson seeks to add value through security selection, sector rotation, convexity biases and yield curve positioning. Finally, Babson employs a quantitative rules-based approach to manage duration, which involves limiting the portfolio duration to a range of 0-3 years, driven by the dynamics and shape of the yield curve.

Subadvisors' comments – concluded
The front end of the yield curve, particularly the two- to three-year area, flattened as the market priced in lower probability of an extended series of Federal Reserve Board interest rate hikes. The flattening in front-end interest rates was a contributor to performance. Our portion of the Portfolio was at its maximum duration of approximately 2.90 years for much of the period, but we may begin to shorten duration should the front end of the yield curve continue to flatten.
Our portion of the Portfolio uses derivative instruments for yield curve, duration and credit risk management. During the period, Treasury futures and options on credit default swaps were used to manage our portion of the Portfolio. Derivatives were a modest detractor from performance.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking current income and a reasonable stability of principal. Investors should be able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the fixed income markets. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.03% and 0.93%; Class C—1.53% and 1.43%; Class Y—0.86% and 0.68%; and Class P—0.83% and 0.68% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—0.93%; Class C—1.43%; Class Y—0.68%; and Class P—0.68% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed this expense cap and that UBS AM has not waived the right to do so. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 4.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 0.75% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Barclays US Intermediate Government/Credit Index is an unmanaged subset of the Barclays US Government/Credit Index covering all investment grade issues with maturities from one up to (but not including) 10 years. The average-weighted maturity is typically between four and five years. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Portfolio footnotes
1 In US Dollars unless otherwise indicated.
2 Security, or portion thereof, was on loan at January 31, 2016.
3 Variable or floating rate security. The interest rate shown is the current rate as of January 31, 2016 and changes periodically.
4 Security exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. These securities, which represent 18.72% of net assets as of January 31, 2016, are considered liquid and may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers.
5 Interest Only Securities. These securities entitle the holder to receive interest payments from an underlying pool of mortgages. The risk associated with this security is related to the speed of the principal paydowns. High prepayments would result in a smaller amount of interest being received and cause the yield to decrease. Low prepayments would result in a greater amount of interest being received and cause the yield to increase.
6 Security exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. These securities, which represent 0.01% of net assets as of January 31, 2016, are considered illiquid and restricted (see table below for more information).

Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio's Class P shares declined 0.58% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Barclays US Government/Credit Index (the "benchmark") rose 1.12% and the Lipper Core Plus Bond Funds category posted a median return of -0.35%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 56. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.)

Subadvisors' comments2
PIMCO
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. An underweight to US duration was negative for results as the yield on the 10-year US Treasury fell 26 basis points (0.26%) over the six month period. (Duration measures a portfolio's sensitivity to interest rate changes.) Additionally, yield curve positioning, with an overall underweight to the long end of the yield curve, was negative for returns as longer-term rates outperformed short rates. European interest rate strategies were also negative for results. A short exposure to UK duration was a detractor as yields fell in the country. This was partially offset by an allocation to European peripherals, especially Italy, as yields in the region declined. An allocation to Mexican local rates was positive for performance as these securities benefited from stable yields and high coupon payments.
An underweight to corporate bonds was beneficial as the sector lagged like-duration Treasuries during the period. The asset class' performance deteriorated amid a sell-off in oil and heavy primary market supply. However, our returns were hurt by an allocation to high yield credit as the sector underperformed like-duration Treasuries.
Exposure to non-agency mortgages was positive for returns as prices on selected securities generally increased. Conversely, security selection of agency mortgages detracted from returns. An allocation to US Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities ("TIPS") detracted from performance as inflation expectations

Investment process:
PIMCO The Portfolio invests primarily in investment grade fixed income securities of governmental and private issuers in the United States and foreign countries. Its duration (a measure of a portfolio's sensitivity to interest rate changes) is normally limited to within +/- 50% of the effective duration of the Portfolio's benchmark index. PIMCO seeks to invest in the areas of the bond market it considers undervalued, based on such factors as quality, sector, coupon and maturity. PIMCO decides to buy or sell specific bonds based
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.

declined. Lastly, our portion of the Portfolio benefited from its long US dollar position against the euro and a basket of emerging market currencies.
Overall, derivative usage was negative during the period as our portion of the Portfolio was short swap rates, which outperformed Treasury rates. The selling of interest rate swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures, as well as to substitute for physical securities, detracted from performance as swap spreads tightened. Credit default swaps were also utilized to manage credit exposure in lieu of the direct buying or selling of securities. Options and options on swaps were primarily used to manage interest rate and volatility exposures, but they were also used to generate income in expected interest rate scenarios. Currency options and forwards were used to gain exposure to foreign currency markets. Government treasury futures were utilized to adjust interest rate exposures and replicate government bond positions.
Neuberger Berman
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. With continued conviction that the economy is stronger than what is priced into the market, we maintained an overweight to spread sectors (non-US Treasury fixed income securities) versus US Treasury securities. Spread sectors can provide an incremental source of yield and they generally perform better in a stronger economy. However, our spread sector allocations underperformed Treasuries during the period as concerns of a continued economic slowdown and anticipated delays in the path of Federal Reserve Board rate hikes boosted safe haven Treasuries at the expense of other sectors.
The largest detractor from our results was an overweight to high yield corporate bonds, as they performed poorly amid widening spreads. Concerns that declining growth in China will affect other markets and declining commodity prices weighed on the high yield market. Positioning in investment grade corporate bonds was positive for performance, but our portion of the Portfolio was tilted more toward higher beta names which negatively impacted performance. (Beta is a measure of volatility or risk relative to the market as a whole.) Overweights to TIPS and emerging market debt also detracted from results as "risk-off" sentiment weighed on inflation expectations and emerging markets. Finally, our defensive duration positioning was not rewarded as longer-term interest rates declined during the period. Yield curve positioning was also negative for results. On the upside, an overweight to non-agency mortgage-backed securities was positive for performance.

on an analysis of their values relative to other similar bonds. PIMCO monitors the prepayment experience of the Portfolio's mortgage-backed bonds and will also buy and sell securities to adjust the average portfolio duration, credit quality, yield curve, sector and prepayment exposure, as appropriate.
Neuberger Berman employs a consistently applied, risk-managed approach to portfolio management that leverages its proprietary fundamental research capabilities, decision-making frameworks, and quantitative risk management tools. Neuberger Berman establishes the investment profile for its portion of the Portfolio's assets, which it monitors on an ongoing basis, including exposures to sectors and duration/yield curve positioning, utilizing internally generated data that are produced by specialty sector investment teams in conjunction with asset allocation tools. Once the investment profile is established, Neuberger Berman determines industry/sub-sector weightings and makes securities selections.

Subadvisors' comments – concluded
Several adjustments were made to our portion of the Portfolio during the reporting period. We reduced our underweight to US Treasuries, while increasing our allocations to non-agency mortgage-backed securities and investment grade corporate financial bonds. Elsewhere, we reduced our exposures to emerging market debt, investment grade corporate industrials sector bonds and global sovereigns.
Financial derivatives were used during the reporting period to manage interest rate risk and shorten our overall portfolio duration relative to the benchmark. The use of these instruments detracted from performance.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking total return consisting of income and capital appreciation and who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the fixed income markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. In addition, investments in foreign bonds involve special risks. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.07% and 0.98%; Class C—1.54% and 1.45%; Class Y—0.93% and 0.81%; and Class P—0.82% and 0.73% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to: (1) waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.06%; Class C—1.56%; Class Y—0.81%; and Class P—0.81%; and (2) waive its management fees through November 30, 2016 to reflect a lower management fee paid by the Portfolio to UBS AM. The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses (pursuant to item (1)) to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed this expense cap and that UBS AM has not waived the right to do so. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 4.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 0.75% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Barclays US Government/Credit Index is an unmanaged index which is composed of all investment-grade bonds that have at least one year to maturity. The Index's total return comprises price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. The Index is rebalanced monthly by market capitalization. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

17 If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of the particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation 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.
18 Payments from/to the counterparty will be received/made upon the occurrence of a failure to pay, obligation acceleration, repudiation or restructuring of the referenced obligation.
19 Payments made or received are based on the notional amount.
20 Credit spreads, where applicable, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value as of period end 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 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. Wider credit spreads 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. A credit spread identified as "Defaulted" indicates a credit event has occurred for the referenced entity. Credit spreads are unaudited.

Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio's Class P shares gained 4.01% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Barclays US Municipal 3-15 Year Blend Index (the "benchmark") rose 3.52%, and the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds category posted a median return of 3.09%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 91. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.) For a detailed commentary on the market environment in general during the reporting period, please refer to page 2.
Subadvisor's comments2
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. The primary drivers of performance were contributions from sector allocation and yield curve positioning. Security selection was also a modest positive for results.
From a sector standpoint, an overweight to revenue bonds was beneficial, as they outperformed the benchmark. In addition, underweights to general obligation ("GO") bonds and pre-refunded bonds, both of which lagged the benchmark, were additive for results. Within the revenue bond sector, the Portfolio's strongest results came from our hospital bonds, along with airport bonds, tobacco bonds and financial institution-backed gas bonds. Conversely, our essential service water and special tax bonds, to which the Portfolio had modest overweights, detracted from results. Our security selection was positive overall, with water and sewer bonds from Detroit, Michigan and Houston, Texas doing particularly well. Strong security selection was partially offset by our lagging Missouri hospital bond exposure. We also achieved favorable results from bonds backed by the states' settlement of litigation with US tobacco companies.

UBS AM: Mabel Lung, CFA, Gina Toth, CFA, Fred Lee, CFA, Diana To and Anthony Karaminas
Standish: Christine L. Todd
Objective:
High current income exempt from federal income tax
Investment process:
In deciding which securities to buy for the Portfolio, Standish seeks to identify undervalued sectors or geographical regions of the municipal market, or undervalued individual securities. To do this, Standish uses credit research and valuation analysis, and monitors the relationship of the municipal yield curve to the Treasury yield curve. Standish may also make modest duration adjustments based on economic analyses and interest rate forecasts. Standish generally sells securities if it identifies more attractive investment opportunities within its investment criteria that may improve the Portfolio's return. Standish also may sell securities with weakening credit profiles or to adjust the average duration of the Portfolio.
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All subadvisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Subadvisor's comments – concluded
Fundamentally, overall municipal credit quality continued to improve, as fund and cash balances grew at the local level, and state and local tax collections exceeded pre-recession levels. We expect to see continued divergence in credit spreads for issuers, with weak pension funding levels as costs weigh on state and local finances. We were underweight state and local GO bonds and will pursue opportunities where relatively cheap valuations are inconsistent with fundamental views and technical conditions. We avoided Puerto Rico bond exposure during the period, which lagged amidst negative credit headlines as the territory continued its inexorable march toward restructuring its debt. From a credit quality perspective, lower investment grade bonds rated A and BBB outperformed higher-quality AAA-rated and AA-rated bonds. The Portfolio was modestly overweight A-rated bonds, with an offsetting underweight mostly to AA-rated, while also being underweight BBB-rated bonds.
Yield curve exposure was additive to performance due to our relatively higher exposure to long-intermediate maturity bonds, particularly within the seven-to-15-year range. Having less exposure to shorter maturities inside of five years was also beneficial, as price pressures were fueled by investor anticipation of Federal Reserve Board rate hikes. Having a slightly longer duration was also positive as the market rallied, with 10-year municipal rates declining 48 basis points (0.48%) during the reporting period.
No derivatives were used during the reporting period.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking high current income exempt from federal income taxes. Investors should be able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the fixed income markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The yield and value of the Portfolio change every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the issuers in which the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to: (1) waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—0.90%; Class C—1.40%; Class Y—0.65%; and Class P—0.65% ; and (2) waive its management fees through November 30, 2016 to reflect a lower management fee paid by the Portfolio to UBS AM. The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses (pursuant to item (1)) to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps and that UBS AM has not waived the right to do so. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 4.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 0.75% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Barclays US Municipal 3-15 Year Blend Index is an unmanaged total return performance benchmark for the tax-exempt bond market. The Index includes municipal bonds with an effective maturity between 2 and 17 years that have at least one year to maturity and are investment grade. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder could pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio's Class P shares declined 0.11% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Barclays Global Aggregate ex US Index (the "benchmark") returned 0.01%, the Barclays Global Aggregate ex USD 50% Hedged Index gained 1.23%, and the Lipper International Income Funds category posted a median return of -2.10%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 102. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.) For a detailed commentary on the market environment in general during the reporting period, please refer to page 2.
Subadvisor's comments2
The Portfolio performed largely in line with the primary benchmark during the reporting period, including the structural unwinding of the remainder of the USD hedge. Our overweight allocation to the European periphery (including Spain and Italy) contributed to performance. Another positive driver was our exposure to Mexican local bonds. Although our bias to be underweight duration versus the benchmark via shorts in Germany, Japan and the US performed well in the fourth quarter of 2015, it was unable to offset meaningful losses earlier in the reporting period. In January 2016, we closed out our 10-year German bund underweight.
In terms of currency positioning, we maintained our short euro versus the Norwegian krone and short US dollar versus the Mexican peso. Our net US dollar exposure was broadly flat over the period. However, we had a modest long position in the US dollar in August 2015 versus the Australian dollar, which we closed at a profit after the Australian dollar fell 4%. In our view, we felt that the US dollar had become quite expensive on a trade-weighted basis versus its 10-year moving average. We had long planned to move the Portfolio to a neutral position in the US dollar ahead of policy normalization from the US Federal Reserve Board. We took the view that there was a significant chance of additional easing from the European Central Bank ("ECB") at its December 2015 meeting and we took the opportunity to implement a tactical short euro versus the US dollar. The euro subsequently declined in November. We were cognizant of the significant move

Objective:
High total return
Investment process:
Rogge Global Partners seeks to invest the Portfolio's assets in fixed income securities of financially healthy issuers, because it believes that these investments produce the highest bond and currency returns over time. In deciding which fixed income securities to buy for the Portfolio, Rogge Global Partners uses a top-down analysis to find value across countries and to forecast interest and currency-exchange rates over a one-year horizon in those countries. Rogge Global Partners generally sells securities that no longer meet these selection criteria or when it identifies more attractive investment opportunities, and may also sell securities to adjust the average duration of the Portfolio.
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All subadvisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Subadvisor's comments – concluded
lower in the euro as it fell back to levels not seen since the first quarter of 2015, and we unwound the tactical trade, taking profits ahead of the ECB's December meeting. Within emerging market currencies, we had a short Taiwanese dollar versus the Indian rupee. We shifted this to an outright short in the Taiwanese dollar in early 2016, due to growing concerns about the economic slowdown in China.
An overweight credit position was positive for results. Industrials were the weakest performing corporate sub-sector, driven by poor results in metals and mining, as well as energy. Hence, our sector selection (financials bias) worked well for us. Additionally, we were more overweight euro-denominated credit as opposed to US dollar-denominated credit. Euro-denominated credit outperformed its US counterpart during the period. This was largely driven by the poor results from energy and metals and mining, both of which are much more represented in the US than in the eurozone. Finally, an allocation to high yield credit was positive as strong security and sector selection outweighed our long credit beta exposure. (Beta is a measure of volatility or risk relative to the market as a whole.) We continue to believe that picking the correct sectors in credit and differentiating will be the key to outperformance in 2016.
Futures were used in the Portfolio to take positions in various government bond markets, hedge interest rate exposure and take yield curve positions. Overall, the use of futures was beneficial to the Portfolio.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking high total return and who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the fixed income markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The yield and value of the Portfolio change every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the issuers in which the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan. The value of the Portfolio's investments in foreign securities may fall due to adverse political, social and economic developments abroad and due to decreases in foreign currency values relative to the US dollar. These risks are greater for investments in emerging markets than in more developed countries.

The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses (pursuant to item (2)) to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps and that UBS AM has not waived the right to do so. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 4.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 0.75% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Barclays Global Aggregate ex USD Index is an unmanaged index which provides a broad-based measure of the global investment grade fixed income markets excluding the US dollar denominated debt market.

6 The Barclays Global Aggregate ex USD 50% Hedged Index, is an index which provides a broad-based measure of the global investment grade fixed income markets excluding US dollar-denominated debt and provides 50% of its currency exposure in the US dollar. The other major currency exposures in this index are the Euro, the Japanese yen and, to a lesser extent, the British pound and the Canadian dollar. The two major components of this index are the Pan-European Aggregate and the Asian-Pacific Aggregate indices. The index also includes Canadian, Euro-yen, and other non-USD-denominated investment grade aggregate index eligible securities not already in the indices already noted. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio's Class P shares declined 6.51% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Index (Hedged in USD) (the "benchmark") fell 6.25%, and the Lipper High Yield Funds category posted a median return of -7.11%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 113. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.) For a detailed commentary on the market environment in general during the reporting period, please refer to page 2.
Subadvisor's comments2
(Please note that while the subadvisor outperformed the benchmark on a gross-of-fees basis, the Portfolio underperformed net of fees, as reported in the "Performance at a glance" table. As stated in footnote two, the comments that follow address performance on a gross-of-fees basis.)
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Our posture in the Portfolio emphasized concerns over volatility in the commodity sectors and a December 2015 Federal Reserve Board rate hike. Our focus during this period was to shift to non-cyclical sectors of the global high yield market. From a regional perspective, we maintained an overweight to US high yield and European high yield, while being underweight Asia and emerging markets high yield. An overweight to Europe was beneficial for results, as was our credit selection in the US. However, an overweight to US high yield detracted from relative performance, as did an underweight to emerging markets due to its sharp rebound in the fourth quarter of 2015.
An underweight to the energy sector helped the Portfolio as concerns about commodity price volatility ensued, leading the sector to fall more than 21% for the period. Overweights to capital goods and leisure also contributed to performance. While we had an underweight in energy, several individual holdings within the sector were negative for results. In particular, Chesapeake Energy, Linn Energy and Berry Petroleum were our largest detractors from performance.

Nomura Corporate Research and Asset Management Inc. and Nomura Asset Management Management Singapore Limited ("NCRAM")

NCRAM: David Crall, CFA, Stephen Kotsen, CFA, Steven Rosenthal, CFA, Elizabeth Gunning, CFA, Simon Tan, CFA
Objective:
Total return
Investment process:
NCRAM seeks to capture the global high yield bond market's attractive total returns while minimizing losses by identifying "Strong Horse" companies that can carry their debt load through the economic cycle. NCRAM invests in the debt of such companies to seek yield and capital appreciation while managing the overall risk of the portfolio.
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All Subadvisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Subadvisor's comments – concluded
The Portfolio lost ground relative to the benchmark because it held less banking securities. In addition, our basic industry and telecomm sector securities did not perform as well as those in the benchmark. However, Neptune Finco and Charter Communications, both telecommunication companies, contributed to performance. Gains from these two companies were offset by Sprint Nextel Corp. and Intelsat in the telecomm sector.
Currency forwards were used during the reporting period to hedge the currency exposure of our non-US currency into US dollars.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking total return and who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the fixed income markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The Portfolio seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in a professionally managed, diversified portfolio of fixed income securities rated below investment grade or considered to be of comparable quality (commonly referred to as "junk bonds"). These securities are subject to higher risks than investment grade securities, including greater price volatility and a greater risk of loss of principal and nonpayment of interest. Issuers of such securities are typically in poor financial health, and their ability to pay interest and principal is uncertain. The prices of such securities may be more vulnerable to bad economic news, or even the expectation of bad news, than higher-rated or investment grade bonds and other fixed income securities. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the issuers in which the Portfolio invests. In addition, investments in foreign bonds involve special risks. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.26% and 1.16%; Class C—1.73% and 1.63%; Class Y—1.03% and 0.93%; and Class P—1.09% and 0.99% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to: (1) waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.28%; Class C—1.78%; Class Y—1.03%; and Class P—1.03%; and (2) waive its management fees through November 30, 2016 to reflect a lower management fee paid by the Portfolio to UBS AM. The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses (pursuant to item (1)) to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed this expense cap and that UBS AM has not waived the right to do so. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Since inception returns are calculated as of commencement of issuance on April 10, 2006 for Class P shares, May 1, 2006 for Class A shares and January 21, 2009 for Class C shares. Class Y shares commenced issuance on April 3, 2006 and had fully redeemed by July 24, 2006 remaining inactive through December 25, 2008. The inception return of Class Y shares is calculated from December 26, 2008, which is the date the Class Y shares recommenced investment operations. Since inception returns for the Index and Lipper median are shown as of April 30, 2006, which is the month-end after the inception date of the oldest share class (Class P).
2 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 4.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
3 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 0.75% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
5 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
6 The BofA Merrill Lynch Global High Yield Index (hedged in USD) is an unmanaged index which covers US dollar, Canadian dollar, sterling and euro-denominated fixed rate debt of corporate issuers domiciled in an investment grade rated country (i.e., BBB or higher foreign currency long-term debt rating). Individual bonds must be rated below investment grade (i.e., BB or lower based on a composite of Moody's and S&P) but not in default; and must have at least one year remaining term to maturity; a minimum face value outstanding of $100 million, C$100 million, 50 million pounds sterling or 100 million euros; and have available price quotations. New issues qualify for inclusion after they settle. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days.
Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Subadvisors' Comments2
Pzena
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. The main detractors from results were stock selection in financial services and lack of exposure to consumer staples and utilities. Our financial holdings consist of global banks, insurers, asset managers and wealth management companies. We see the sector as offering the most compelling risk/reward opportunities in the US equity markets today. Global banks now trade at or below book value, with extremely well-capitalized and highly liquid balance sheets. In addition, rising interest rates, increased securities trading and expense rationalization offer multiple paths to earnings improvement. Energy and technology holdings were our biggest contributors to performance and included Microsoft, Intel and Exxon Mobil. Energy holdings added to performance, as our portion of the Portfolio was positioned mainly in integrated energy companies which held up better than independent energy producers and oilfield services companies. Microsoft, our top contributor during the reporting period, had been judged a loser to the Cloud just two years ago. However, its stock price surged higher as the company reported significant increases in Cloud-based revenues.
Outside of these sectors, we have exposure to advertising, autos, media and office supplies in the consumer discretionary sector. Elsewhere, while industrial cyclicals are being impacted by the slowdown in emerging markets, we have identified
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All subadvisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

companies that we deem to have outstanding businesses. We have significantly less exposure to sectors considered to be "safe" by investors, such as health care, consumer staples, utilities and telecom services, as we believe valuations are unattractive.
It has been five years of a growth-dominated market and, as a result, the valuation spread between value stocks and the broad market is elevated. In addition, the leadership of growth stocks reversed at the end of the reporting period. Although the timing of turning points in the value cycle are impossible to predict and are only in hindsight, history would suggest this is a good time to be in value.
No derivatives were used in the portfolio during the reporting period.
Robeco (doing business as Boston Partners)
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period, mainly driven by sector allocation and stock selection. The majority of our underperformance was due to stock section in the basic industries sector. In particular, our overweights in chemical company Huntsman Corp. and paper forest and packaging company WestRock Company were our biggest individual detractors from results. In the health care sector, shares of biotechnology company Gilead Sciences declined sharply and was another top detractor from performance. In addition, our short positions in the health care sector were large detractors from returns. For example, a short in health care supply company Henry Schein was a negative as it posted a positive return during the reporting period.
Areas that contributed to performance were capital goods, consumer non-durables and transportation, all driven by strong stock selection. In the capital goods sector, aerospace & defense companies Raytheon and Lockheed Martin produced positive returns and were top contributors to performance. In the consumer non-durables sector, shares of gaming company Activision Blizzard rallied sharply and continued to do well among its peers. Another top contributor within this sector was Tyson Foods. This high quality company has good positive momentum and should trade at a larger premium to its peers. Within the transportation sector, Delta Airlines added value, as it produced a strong return during the period. Delta Airlines possesses good positive momentum and fundamentals. The company uses its free cash flow to pay down debt and buy back shares. In addition, our short positions in the capital
Investment process (concluded)
Robeco invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of common stocks of issuers identified as having attractive value characteristics with strong fundamentals and positive business momentum. Robeco establishes a sell discipline for each security in the portfolio based on its target price, and may also sell a security if business fundamentals weaken or if an expected catalyst fails to materialize. The short side of the portfolio is selected by identifying the contra-characteristics that we look for on the long portfolio and covering a short if the stock reaches its fair value or there is a positive change in fundamentals or business momentum.
Los Angeles Capital employs a "long/short" or "130/30" equity strategy. Los Angeles Capital buys securities "long" that it believes will outperform the market or decrease portfolio risk, and sells securities "short" that it believes will underperform the market. Los Angeles Capital uses a proprietary quantitative model that includes fundamental data inputs for a universe of equity securities and, through the use of statistical tools, estimates expected returns based on each security's risk characteristics and the expected return to each characteristic in the current market environment.
River Road utilizes a fundamentally driven research process to identify attractive purchase candidates from an all cap universe of high yielding equity securities. The firm invests in well-managed, financially strong companies with high and growing dividends, targeting companies that are also trading at a meaningful discount to River Road's assessed valuation. The stock selection process is complemented by a risk averse approach that employs balanced diversification and a structured sell discipline.

Our portion of the Portfolio outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period, with fundamental factor exposures contributing to performance, whereas sector tilts detracted from results. For the period, our high-quality posture contributed significantly to returns. Tilts toward securities with positive analyst insight, higher earnings yield and strong one-year momentum, which are currently correlated with quality characteristics, were among the primary drivers of returns. Pursuant to the quality preference, both volatility and financial risk unwound during the period and a tilt away from both of those factors also proved beneficial. Among the detracting factors, companies with larger market capitalizations rallied and, consequently, a tilt toward smaller-cap companies negatively impacted performance. Despite the strong US dollar, companies with large sources of foreign revenue also recovered during the latter half of 2015. As such, a tilt away from such companies was a further headwind for performance. Within industries, underweights to diversified financials, energy, and pharmaceuticals & biotechnology added value, while overweights to banks and insurance detracted from results.
As of the end of the reporting period, our portion of the Portfolio was overweight finance, consumer staples and basic materials, while being underweight capital goods, cyclicals and energy. Our portion of the Portfolio exhibited a lower price-to-earnings multiple and higher dividend yield relative to the benchmark. Additionally, our portion of the Portfolio had a lower beta and was tilted toward smaller companies. (Beta is a measure of volatility or risk relative to the market as a whole.)

Our portion of the Portfolio outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. Overall, stock selection and sector allocation were both responsible for our outperformance and resulted in a positive total effect relative to the benchmark in seven of 10 sectors. The most significant contributors to performance were stock selection in the information technology and consumer staples sectors. The outperformance in information technology was driven by Microsoft and Motorola Solutions, two of our top three contributors during the period. Among our six holdings in consumer staples, four outperformed the broader sector, including Molson Coors Brewing Co., our second-highest contributor during the period.
While we outperformed the benchmark, we couldn't avoid the weakness in the overall market, as eight of the 10 sectors in the benchmark posted a negative absolute return during the period. The most significant negative impacts on our results were stock selection in the industrials and utilities sectors. Six of our nine holdings in industrials and all three holdings in utilities underperformed their respective broader sector returns. The three

holdings that were the largest detractors from performance during the period were Qualcomm, Macy's and Kohl's. We eliminated Macy's, Inc. from our portion of the Portfolio during the reporting period.
We did not use derivatives during the reporting period.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking capital appreciation and dividend income and who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the equity markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.48% and 1.48%; Class C—2.25% and 2.25%; Class Y—1.23% and 1.23%; and Class P—1.24% and 1.24% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.27%; Class C—2.02%; Class Y—1.02%; and Class P—1.02% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 1% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Russell 1000 Value Index measures the performance of the large-cap value segment of the US equity universe. It includes those Russell 1000 Index companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower expected growth values. The Russell 1000 Value Index is constructed to provide a comprehensive and unbiased barometer for the large-cap value segment. The Index is completely reconstituted annually to ensure new and growing equities are included and that the represented companies continue to reflect value characteristics. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Subadvisors' Comments2
Jackson Square
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Strong performance in the information technology and financial services sectors was unable to overcome weak results in the health care and consumer discretionary sectors.
Our largest detractors from performance were Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, QUALCOMM and Biogen. Valeant Pharmaceuticals was negatively impacted by allegations of wrongdoing at its specialty pharmacy partner, Philidor. Investors' lack of familiarity with this relationship left the stock vulnerable when questions were raised, and a short seller's analogy to Enron put incremental pressure on the stock and raised investor scrutiny. Our best assessment at this point is that Philidor was a relatively small part of Valeant Pharmaceuticals' total business. Furthermore, third-quarter 2015 cash generation was positive and would indicate the company is what we thought it was: a cash-generating business with solid medium-term growth prospects. Valeant Pharmaceuticals is now trading at a very high free cash-flow yield on our 2016 projections, despite our having revised those projections downward to reflect the transition away from Philidor and to their new pharmacy partner, Walgreens. We also note that the shareholder base—and board—include large owners with an interest in reaching the right economic
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.

Objective:
Capital appreciation
Investment process:
Jackson Square invests primarily in common stocks of large capitalization growth-oriented companies that Jackson Square believes have long-term capital appreciation potential and are expected to grow faster than the US economy. Using a bottom-up approach, Jackson Square seeks to select securities of companies that it believes have attractive large end-market potential, dominant business models and strong free cash flow generation that are attractively priced compared to the intrinsic value of the securities. Jackson Square also considers a company's operational efficiencies, management's plans for capital allocation and the company's shareholder

outcome. Considering both risk and reward, as well as the remaining unknowns, we believe we have the stock appropriately weighted in our portion of the Portfolio.
In terms of individual holdings, top contributors to performance included Equinix, Visa and Alphabet. Equinix reported relatively strong financial results and increased its 2016 outlook. Additionally, the company is pursuing several strategic acquisitions, which should further strengthen its global presence. Equinix continues to benefit from significant opportunities associated with Cloud computing and its role in the information technology supply chain. Increased globalization and the robust need for a secure and accessible network to meet the needs of a dispersed user base is creating significant demand for a company like Equinix. We believe the company's innovative product offerings make it well positioned in a technology spending environment that is focused on addressing the needs of enterprises struggling to maintain the highest level of network performance and quality of service for global users.

(Please note that while the subadvisor outperformed the benchmark on a gross-of-fees basis, the Portfolio underperformed net of fees, as reported in the "Performance at a glance" table. As stated in footnote two, the comments that follow address performance on a gross-of-fees basis.)
Our portion of the Portfolio outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. Despite every sector within the benchmark posting negative returns for the period, positive stock selection was additive to our relative results.
Strong stock selection and an underweight in health care, along with positive stock selection in financials and materials, contributed the most to performance, while consumer staples and information technology hindered results. Our leading performers were Amazon.com, Alphabet, Unilever, Adobe and Starbucks. Conversely, Liberty Global, Kansas City Southern, Apple, Allergan and Berkshire Hathaway detracted from returns. In the fourth quarter of 2015, we reduced our weighting in Amazon.com as we believe its price raced ahead of its intrinsic value growth. The secular drivers of the company are well understood: penetration of e-commerce and Cloud computing. In January 2016, we sold our remaining small position in Amazon.com.
Over time, the expected returns of our portfolio should reflect two components: (1) the intrinsic value growth of our businesses and (2) the discount we are paying relative to fair value. There will be times, like the last few years, when the sentiment pendulum swings towards euphoria, portfolio returns exceed the underlying intrinsic value growth, and margins of safety contract. Conversely, fear, skepticism and lower stock prices provide opportunities

orientation.
Mar Vista employs a bottom-up approach to stock selection, seeking high quality growth companies whose stocks are trading at discounts to fair value. Mar Vista looks for companies with sustainable competitive advantages and opportunities to grow and reinvest capital at higher rates than their cost of capital. Mar Vista also seeks to invest in companies with management teams with a proven ability to allocate capital in ways that maximize shareholder value. Mar Vista's investment approach seeks to balance both the protection of capital as well as the appreciation potential of a stock.
J.P. Morgan invests primarily in a focused portfolio of equity securities of large capitalization companies. J.P. Morgan considers large capitalization companies to be companies with market capitalizations equal to those within the universe of the Russell 1000 Growth Index at the time of purchase. Although J.P. Morgan will invest primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies, it may invest in foreign securities, including depositary receipts. J.P. Morgan utilizes a combination of qualitative analysis and quantitative metrics in order to seek to achieve target returns which are higher than those of the fund's benchmark while attempting to maintain a moderate risk profile.

for both higher expected returns and less risk. Early results from this year suggest the pendulum is rapidly swinging toward the latter.

J.P. Morgan
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. All of the underperformance occurred in January 2016, as we witnessed a challenging market environment characterized by companies with higher growth and higher valuations coming under pressure. From an overall perspective, underperformance was driven by a mix of security selection and sector allocation.
Stock selection and sector allocation in the health care sector, which was an overweight exposure, and the consumer staples sector, which was an underweight exposure, were the largest detractors from performance. Stock selection in the technology and energy sectors were the largest contributors to results during the period. At the individual stock level, overweight positions in BioMarin Pharmaceutical and Charles Schwab detracted from performance. An overweight position in Facebook and an underweight in Apple contributed to relative results. With the exception of Apple, we continue to hold positions in the securities mentioned above.
We remain focused on identifying companies that possess these three key characteristics: 1) a large addressable market undergoing meaningful change, 2) a sustainable competitive advantage and is executing well, and 3) positive earnings revisions. We continue to find attractive opportunities in technology and financial services, which represent our largest overweight exposures. We are also overweight the health care sector. Our greatest underweight exposures are in consumer staples, producer durables and utilities. These are sectors where we are finding limited growth opportunities.
Derivatives were not part of our investment strategy during the reporting period.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking capital appreciation who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the equity markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. Also, to the extent the Portfolio invests a large portion of its assets in a particular sector, the Portfolio may experience greater volatility and risk of loss due to unfavorable developments in that sector. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.18% and 1.18%; Class C—1.99% and 1.99%; Class Y—0.92% and 0.92%; and Class P—0.92% and 0.92% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.30%; Class C—2.05%; Class Y—1.05%; and Class P—1.05% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 1% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Russell 1000 Growth Index measures the performance of the large-cap growth segment of the US equity universe. It includes those Russell 1000 Index companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Russell 1000 Growth Index is constructed to provide a comprehensive and unbiased barometer for the large-cap growth segment. The Index is completely reconstituted annually to ensure new and growing equities are included and that the represented companies continue to reflect growth characteristics. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Subadvisors' Comments2
MetWest Capital
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection in the financials and information technology sectors were the largest detractors from returns. Within financials, Encore Capital Group was our worst performer. Despite a solid third quarter in 2015 and positive guidance for 2016, as well as positive markups on estimated collections, shares of Encore Capital Group declined in sympathy with its competitor, PRA Group. In general, the consumer finance industry continues to be plagued by fears of heightened regulatory scrutiny and potential punishments, which has created a near-term headwind for the group. Longer term, we believe the company's returns should improve as larger banks (e.g., J.P. Morgan, Bank of America and Wells Fargo) restart selling their debt collection paper to Encore Capital Group and other players. In information technology, Endurance International Group Holdings detracted the most from returns. During the period, the company announced a debt-financed acquisition of email marketing platform provider Constant Contact. While on the surface this acquisition appears expensive, the valuation becomes more attractive after incorporating the potential cost synergies that should result from the deal. Additionally, Endurance International Group employs a roll-up strategy, which typically requires a more leveraged business model. This strategy is supported by both the company's attractive free cash flow generation and high

recurring revenue stream, which represents nearly 90% of its revenues.
Our security selection was the strongest in the consumer staples sector, with Treasury Wine Estates Ltd. being the best performer. During the period, Treasury Wine Estates announced it would be acquiring a majority of Diageo's US and European wine business. Treasury Wine Estates will be acquiring brands such as Beaulieu Vineyards, Sterling Vineyards, Hewitt and Blossom Hill. This attractive acquisition, as well as stronger-than-expected results in the first half of the company's fiscal year 2016, have driven its stock price higher. These results and actions underscore Chief Executive Officer Michael Clarke's solid leadership and execution. We closed our position in Treasury Wine Estates Ltd. in January 2016, as the stock approached our estimate of intrinsic value.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting period.
Systematic
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. This was due to sector allocation, primarily an underweight to the utilities sector. Conversely, stock selection overall was beneficial for results. This was led by our holdings within the materials, energy and information technology sectors. Conversely, security selection within the utilities and financials sectors had a negative impact on our performance.
One stock that benefited our results was Cirrus Logic, a supplier of high-performance semiconductor solutions for consumer electronics. In addition to posting third-quarter 2015 earnings that exceeded Wall Street's expectations, the company gave strong guidance, leading to positive estimate revisions. We also gained confidence in the company as our expectation was that Cirrus Logic won a contract for iPhone headsets—a significant step in expanding its product categories. We believe the company's earnings can continue to increase in excess of current expectations as Cirrus Logic is entering a significant new product cycle and migrating to a newer technology cycle.
An example of a stock that underperformed during the period was Dynegy, Inc., an independent electricity generator. We purchased shares of Dynegy after uncovering a positive earnings catalyst in some new electricity market-capacity rules. Beginning in the summer of 2015, however, abnormal weather conditions caused forward power prices to deteriorate, offsetting these catalysts. Negative weather trends continued into the fourth quarter of 2015 and we sold the position after an unexpected rule change further impaired the company's outlook.

Subadvisors' Comments – concluded
Our portion of the Portfolio outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. Within the small and midcap markets, higher-quality and lower beta stocks outperformed the Russell 2500 Value Index. (Beta is a measure of volatility or risk relative to the market as a whole.) Our outperformance was due to strong stock selection and the high-quality tailwinds. In particular, stock selection in the energy and producer durables sectors contributed to results. Conversely, an underweight and weak stock selection in the utilities sector detracted from relative performance.
The stocks that were the largest contributors during the period were Jack Henry & Associates and WD-40. Jack Henry & Associates's shares performed strongly, supported by the company's consistently strong operating results, driven by solid top-line growth and positive operating leverage. Importantly, technology spending by community banks and credit unions remained strong and the company continued to benefit from solid growth in complementary products and services. Shares of WD-40 performed strongly following the company's reports of consistently solid operating results. WD-40's new "specialist" product line continues to gain traction, while lower commodity prices (mainly oil) have further improved the company's already strong profitability.
The stocks that were the largest detractors from performance during the period were Cinemark Holdings and Artisan Partners Asset Management. Shares of Cinemark Holdings lagged due to investor concerns over the company's international segment being impacted by unfavorable currency fluctuations. Importantly, Cinemark Holdings continues to outperform the broader exhibitor industry, and the international segment's profitability expanded recently, driven by concession revenue growth and local currency-denominated costs' deflation. While volatility in the emerging markets could present currency headwinds and modestly lower demand, we remain confident in the company's long-term positioning both in the US and abroad. Artisan Partners Asset Management has been hurt by net outflows in a particular investment strategy that caused overall assets under management to decline. We believe the company's business model will enable strategies with growth in assets to offset potential outflows in other strategies over time, such that overall growth in assets will be attractive.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting period.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking capital appreciation who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the equity markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan. In addition, small and midcap companies are typically subject to a greater degree of change in earnings and business prospects than are larger, more established companies. Therefore, they are considered to have a higher level of volatility and risk.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.27% and 1.27%; Class C—2.01% and 2.01%; Class Y—1.13% and 1.13%; and Class P—1.12% and 1.12% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.41%; Class C—2.16% ; Class Y—1.16% ; and Class P—1.16% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 1% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Russell 2500 Value Index measures the performance of the small to mid-cap value segment of the US equity universe. It includes those Russell 2500 Index companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. The Russell 2500 Value Index is constructed to provide a comprehensive and unbiased barometer of the small to mid-cap value market. The Index is completely reconstituted annually to ensure larger stocks do not distort the performance and characteristics of the true small to mid-cap opportunity set and that the represented companies continue to reflect value characteristics. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio's Class P shares declined 21.82% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 2500 Growth Index (the "benchmark") fell 17.77%, and the Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds category posted a median return of -19.36%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 166. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.)

(Please note that while the subadvisor outperformed the benchmark on a gross-of-fees basis, the Portfolio underperformed net of fees, as reported in the "Performance at a glance" table. As stated in footnote two, the comments that follow address performance on a gross-of-fees basis.)
Our portion of the Portfolio outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. This may have been expected given our investment style and the market environment that prevailed during the period. Historically, our portfolios have performed the best relative to the benchmark during difficult market and economic environments. This has been due to our focus on companies that we believe can grow for an extended period of time, independent of economic conditions. In the third quarter of 2015, stocks fell sharply as investors reacted to slowing growth in China and in several European countries. The fourth quarter featured a resumption of strong returns in the US equity market, but it again fell sharply in January 2016.
Our top performing sector for the reporting period was health care. One holding, athenahealth, which provides software and services to the health care industry, performed well after the company reported new contracts in both large enterprises and small group practices. In addition, our lack of exposure to biotechnology, which typically does not meet our investment
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.

criteria, helped performance. The biotechnology industry sold off in the third quarter of 2015 after leading the market for several quarters. Industrials was the second-best performing sector and perhaps the most illustrative of the typical relative performance of our portfolios. The industrial companies we invest in are those that we believe can grow even when the economy does not. For example, Beacon Roofing Supply, a leading distributor of residential and non-residential roofing and exterior building products, outperformed, in part due to its focus on repair and remodeling as opposed to new construction.
Our financial holdings detracted from performance during the period. PRA Group, a leading purchaser of debt receivables, declined as a result of industry disruptions caused by pending regulatory changes. We believe the company's business practices are industry leading and that looming regulations will be directed toward questionable behavior on the part of other industry participants. Financial Engines, which provides independent investment and retirement advice to participants in large employer-sponsored defined contribution retirement plans, also detracted from results. Its shares fell as the stock market's decline reduced the company's assets under management, upon which its revenues are derived.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting period.
LMCG Investments, LLC
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. As in the past, stock selection was the primary driver of our results. In particular, weakness in some key holdings in health services and non-bank financials meaningfully detracted from performance. Our overweight to health services was also a headwind for results. On the positive side, although we had only limited exposure to energy and telecommunication services, both of these sectors contributed to results during the period.
In financials, PRA Group (consumer finance, debt collection) and Marcus & Millichap (real estate) underperformed for the period. Our underweight to real estate investment trusts ("REITs") also detracted from results. In health services, the final few months of 2015 was an especially challenging period, particularly for public hospital companies. The hospitals group and other health services stocks declined due to growing concerns about how the Affordable Care Act may impact hospital admissions, patient volumes and health care staffing needs going forward. In particular, Team Health, an outsourced health care staffing company, and hospital operators Tenet Healthcare and Community Health Systems were among our key positions and declined alongside the group. Higher staffing costs were a drag on third-quarter 2015 earnings reports for Community Health, as well as the larger, bellwether names in the group. Conversely, telecommunications firm Cogent Communications was the primary outperformer in that sector.

Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection drove the bulk of the underperformance.

key characteristics LMCG seeks in its holdings.
Timpani seeks to invest in small cap companies where growth is robust, sustainable and underestimated by the market. Timpani uses fundamental research, focusing on companies that it believes have superior management and whose business models have a high potential for earnings upside. Timpani forms an investment decision based on this reasearch and an assessment of the market's perception of these companies.

Subadvisors' comments – concluded
This profit-taking represented a broad-based headwind to our results, causing us to lose value in nearly every sector within the benchmark. This was especially pronounced in health care, which had been one of our strongest areas of outperformance in the prior six-month period. Prior health care winners, including Adeptus Health, Horizon Pharma and ANI Pharmaceuticals, were our biggest detractors from results over the reporting period. ANI Pharmaceuticals and Horizon Pharma were completely sold from our portion of the Portfolio, as its growth profile came into question, while Adeptus Health is still held but at a much smaller weight. We had several individual winners, but the magnitude of contribution was dulled by the aforementioned positioning. Notable winners during the period included Euronet Worldwide and Motorcar Parts of America.
In recent weeks, US equities have experienced increased volatility and poor absolute performance, mainly due to rising fears of a global recession. Investor sentiment has weakened and valuations have compressed. However, overall company fundamental data points continue to suggest the US economy is on reasonably solid ground. We continue to focus on finding stocks with robust and sustainable growth profiles where the growth is being underestimated. That research has resulted in sector weights that vary from the benchmark weights. Key overweights in our portion of the Portfolio include consumer discretionary and technology, while notable underweights include financial services and producer durables.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting period.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking capital appreciation who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the equity markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan. In addition, small and midcap companies are typically subject to a greater degree of change in earnings and business prospects than are larger, more established companies. Therefore, they are considered to have a higher level of volatility and risk. Also, to the extent the Portfolio invests a large portion of its assets in a particular sector, the Portfolio may experience greater volatility and risk of loss due to unfavorable developments in that sector.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.24% and 1.24%; Class C—1.99% and 1.99%; Class Y—1.13% and 1.13%; and Class P—1.10% and 1.10% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.38%; Class C—2.13%; Class Y—1.13%; and Class P—1.13% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 1% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The Russell 2500 Growth Index measures the performance of the small to mid-cap growth segment of the US equity universe. It includes those Russell 2500 Index companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Russell 2500 Growth Index is constructed to provide a comprehensive and unbiased barometer of the small to mid-cap growth market. The Index is completely reconstituted annually to ensure larger stocks do not distort the performance and characteristics of the true small to mid-cap opportunity set and that the represented companies continue to reflect growth characteristics. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Subadvisors' Comments2
Mondrian
Our portion of the Portfolio modestly outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection within markets added to our returns, led by holdings in Japan, Germany and the Netherlands, including Tokyo Electron, SAP and Koninklijke Ahold. At the sector level, allocations between sectors added to our returns, driven mainly by our underweights in the financials and materials sectors. Stock selection within sectors, however, held back returns during the period, driven by our holdings in the telecommunication services and energy sectors. In particular, shares of AMEC Foster Wheeler, a UK-based engineering company, fell sharply during the period. The oil and gas sector is an important end-market for the company.
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All subadvisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Capital appreciation
Investment process:
Mondrian conducts research on a global basis in an effort to identify securities that have the potential for capital appreciation over a market cycle. The center of its research effort is a value-oriented dividend discount methodology toward individual securities and market analysis that attempts to identify value across country boundaries. This approach focuses on future anticipated dividends, and discounts the value of those dividends back to what they would be worth if they were being paid today.

Country allocation slightly held back our returns, driven by overweights in Spain and Singapore, which both fell more than the benchmark. This was only partly offset by an overweight in the relatively strong UK market. Currency allocation effects also detracted from results. While we benefited from an underweight to the weak Australian dollar, this was more than offset by an underweight in the strong Japanese yen.
The main highlights of the strategy being adopted for our portion of the Portfolio are an overweight in select European markets; overweights in the telecommunications services, consumer staples and energy sectors; and underweights in the materials, consumer discretionary and financials sectors.
Derivatives were not used during the review period.
Chautauqua Capital Management
Our portion of the Portfolio significantly outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period, due to security selection. Stock selection and overweights in information technology and health care were both beneficial for performance. Even though we were underweight consumer discretionary and financials relative to the benchmark, strong stock selection contributed to results within those sectors. We held similar weightings to telecommunication service and materials to the benchmark during the period. In both cases, strong stock selection was positive for performance. Underweights in utilities and industrials were also additive to results. The only performance detractor from results was a substantial underweight to the consumer staples sector.
Regionally, strong stock selection in Europe and Asia/Pacific Basin contributed to performance. An underweight in Africa/Middle East was also rewarded relative to the benchmark. The only detractor to results from a regional perspective was an overweight in Latin America.
Derivatives were not used during the review period.
Los Angeles Capital
Our portion of the Portfolio outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period, with fundamental factors and currency exposures contributing to performance, while sector and country tilts detracted from results. Within sectors, an overweight to health care in Japan was the largest contributor to returns and an underweight to health care in Europe proved beneficial. Basic materials unwound across Europe, Japan and

possible investments are then made. In an international portfolio, currency returns can be an integral component of an investment's total return. Mondrian uses a purchasing power parity approach to assess the value of individual currencies. Purchasing power parity attempts to identify the amount of goods and services that a dollar will buy in the United States, and compares that to the amount of a foreign currency required to buy the same amount of goods and services in another country.
Chautauqua seeks to achieve consistent risk adjusted excess returns by managing a concentrated portfolio of 25-35 quality, growth companies generally headquartered outside of the United States. The portfolio consists of a carefully diversified set of best idea equities that Chautauqua believes will benefit from long-term trends, have sustainable competitive advantages and exhibit growth that should outpace the market. Companies are valued based on a forward looking cash flow analysis. When selecting investments, Chautauqua has a long-term horizon.
Los Angeles Capital employs a "long/short" or "130/30" equity strategy. Los Angeles Capital buys securities "long" that it believes will outperform the market or decrease portfolio risk, and sells securities "short" that it believes will underperform the market. Los Angeles Capital uses a proprietary quantitative model that includes fundamental data inputs for a universe of equity securities and, through the use of statistical tools, estimates expected returns based on each security's risk characteristics and the expected return to each characteristic in the current market environment.

the Pacific. Consequently, an underweight to the sector added value in Europe and the Pacific, but an overweight in Japan detracted modestly from results. Companies with strong momentum performed well in Europe and the Pacific, and our tilt toward such companies was a notable driver of return in both regions. Companies with strong expected earnings growth fared poorly in Europe, Japan and the Pacific. Therefore, an overweight to these companies detracted from performance in each of the three regions. Tilts away from volatile companies added value across all three regions. Larger market cap names performed poorly across the board, while a tilt toward smaller cap companies proved to be a significant contributor to performance. Within countries, an overweight to Denmark and an underweight to the Netherlands added value, but an overweight to Italy and an underweight to Germany detracted from results. Finally, lower exposure to the British pound added value as it depreciated against the US dollar. Elsewhere, exposure to the Swiss franc and Norwegian kronor detracted from returns, as both these currencies depreciated during the period.
At the end of the reporting period, our portion of the Portfolio exhibited tilts toward consumer discretionary, health care and utilities, with tilts away from energy, materials and telecommunications. Our portion of the Portfolio exhibited a slight growth tilt, with higher price-to-earnings and price-to-book ratios and a lower yield relative to the benchmark. We also had a lower beta and weighted average market capitalization. (Beta is a measure of volatility or risk relative to the market as a whole.)
Derivatives were not used during the reporting period.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking capital appreciation who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the equity markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan. The value of the Portfolio's investments in foreign securities may fall due to adverse political, social, and economic developments abroad and due to decreases in foreign currency values relative to the US dollar. These risks are greater for investments in emerging market issuers than for issuers in more developed countries.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.78% and 1.78%; Class C—2.58% and 2.58%; Class Y—1.51% and 1.51%; and Class P—1.52% and 1.52% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.55%; Class C—2.30%; Class Y—1.30%; and Class P—1.30% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 1% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The MSCI EAFE Index (net) is an index of stocks designed to measure the investment returns of developed economies outside of North America. Net total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties. The Index is constructed and managed with a view to being fully investable from the perspective of international institutional investors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.

Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

Subadvisors' Comments2
Mondrian
Our portion of the Portfolio performed in line with the benchmark during the reporting period. The benchmark fell sharply over the period. Growing fears over the strength of the Chinese economy, combined with the appreciation of the US dollar, drove commodity prices lower. The combination of these headwinds created an unsupportive environment for the asset class during the second half of 2015, with currency depreciation significantly impacting returns across most emerging markets. All regions experienced losses, although Asia outperformed despite weakness in China, whose stock market was rattled by evidence of slowing growth and unexpected movements in the exchange rate.
Our relative outperformance during the period was due to a combination of favorable country positioning and stock selection. An underweight to China was relatively positive given its weak results. In addition, having no exposure to Chinese financial stocks added value. However, within China our holdings in power utility China Resources Power and footwear retailer Belle International detracted from performance. A lack of exposure to strong performing Internet company Tencent was also negative for results.
Our portion of the Portfolio benefited from holdings in Indonesian banks Bank Rakyat and Bank Mandiri, which performed well as they rebounded from oversold levels. An

Capital appreciation
Investment process:
Mondrian conducts research on a global basis in an effort to identify securities that have the potential for capital appreciation over a market cycle. The center of its research effort is a value-oriented dividend discount methodology toward individual securities and market analysis that attempts to identify value across country boundaries. This approach focuses on future anticipated dividends and discounts the value of those dividends back to what they would be worth if they were being paid today. Comparisons of the values of different possible investments are then made. In an international portfolio, currency returns can be an integral component of an

overweight in the defensive Malaysian market and underweights to the weak Greek and South African markets were further positives. Elsewhere, positioning in Mexico added value and defensive consumer staples stocks Unilever and SAB Miller performed particularly well, the latter due to a takeover bid from rival brewer AB Inbev. These positive impacts were offset by an underweight to South Korea, although our holding in Hyundai Mobis performed well as the company announced a share buyback. Weak commodity prices weighed on the performance of iron ore producer Vale, oil producer Cairn India and UAE-based First Gulf Bank. Elsewhere, increased competition for the supply of silicon chips for Chinese smartphones drove weak performance from Taiwanese semiconductor design company Mediatek.
Derivatives were not used during the review period.
William Blair
Our portion of the Portfolio performed in line with the benchmark during the reporting period. Despite investors' concern about a slow growth environment, we added value versus the benchmark because of strong geographical stock selection. This was most prominent in Asia, led by relative strength in China and Thailand. These positive effects were somewhat mitigated by Brazil stock selection and overall country positioning. In terms of the latter, an underweight to Korea and overweights to South Africa and Brazil were the primary detractors from results.
Our top holding for the period was LG Household & Healthcare, a leading household goods manufacturer and the second-largest cosmetics company in Korea. Its share price continued to climb during the period, fueled by the company's strong operating momentum in its cosmetics business and improved fundamentals in its household and beverage businesses. Strong performance in its duty-free channel and China reflected the continuous dampened concerns about inbound tourists post the Middle East respiratory syndrome ("MERS") outbreak and decelerating growth in China.
From a sector standpoint, our performance was enhanced the most by stock selection in telecommunication services and industrials. Within telecommunication services, Indian wireless tower operator Bharti Infratel had a difficult third quarter of 2015. However, its shares then bounced back as investors refocused on the company's exposures to favorable wireless data adoption and carrier network expansion trends. These positive effects were partially offset by stock selection in the

investment's total return. Mondrian uses a purchasing power parity approach to assess the value of individual currencies. Purchasing power parity attempts to identify the amount of goods and services that a dollar will buy in the United States, and compares that to the amount of a foreign currency required to buy the same amount of goods and services in another country.
William Blair invests in a portfolio of mid cap and large cap equity securities issued by companies in emerging markets worldwide, according to a quality growth philosophy. William Blair's primary focus is on identifying such companies whose growth characteristics (rate and durability) are underestimated by the market and supported by quality management and strong competitive positioning. After screening the universe of emerging country issuers for certain quality, growth and liquidity characteristics to create a prospective list of investible securities, William Blair undertakes detailed fundamental analysis of these companies, focusing attention on areas where short- to intermediate-term earnings trends and overall operating performance are improving or are strong. Key considerations are the sustainability of a company's competitive advantage relative to peers, its industry and market conditions, a sound financial structure and high reinvestment rates that combine to create favorable conditions for prospective growth.
LMCG uses a bottom-up quantitative approach to investing in emerging markets equity securities. Inefficiencies in the market create opportunities, and LMCG believes that a quantitative process, which relies on sophisticated mathematical or statistical models in selecting investments, is well-suited to capture these inefficiencies and

financials sector, as our bank, real estate and diversified financial services holdings underperformed.
From a positioning perspective, our portion of the Portfolio added to its emerging market Asia exposure, as we initiated positions in China's Ctrip.com and Great Wall Motor. Despite the increase, China remained underweighted versus the benchmark. Conversely, we reduced our allocations to Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and Latin America. In terms of sectors, we added exposure to information technology, consumer staples and consumer discretionary, while greatly reducing exposure in financials and also in industrials. Within financials, we liquidated holdings such as FirstRand and Air China.

Our portion of the Portfolio outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. Political and economic uncertainties in many countries led to a volatile period for emerging market equities. The timing of the US Federal Reserve Board's decision to raise rates added to the turmoil, as investors worried that economic growth could slow in many emerging countries given higher financing costs. Despite this difficult environment, we outperformed the benchmark. We credit this to our core approach, which is balanced across a variety of stock selection factors. Risk control was also important during the period as equity returns varied wildly by country.
The reporting period was particularly strong for our overall stock selection model. Market Dynamics, which ranks stocks versus their peers on earnings growth prospects and relative strength, contributed the most during the period. Quality, which assesses a company's quality of earnings, as well as its operating efficiency and use of capital, also contributed to results. Elsewhere, our Valuation factor, which evaluates stocks on several relative value measures, was mixed from month to month and only slightly positive overall for the six-month period. Valuation, which is often viewed as more risky in periods with high macro uncertainty, is typically shunned by investors when they prefer stocks with good earnings expectations and positive price appreciation.
Our performance benefited from positive stock selection during the period. By country, stock selection in Brazil and Mexico was particularly positive. Country allocation was modestly positive for relative results, led by underweights to China and Greece. Korea and Turkey were the largest detractors by country. In terms of sectors, overall stock selection added to performance, led by energy and materials. Sector allocation also contributed to relative results, led by an underweight in Financials and an overweight in Information Technology. Consumer discretionary and health care were the largest detractors by sector.

provide an opportunity to outperform the market. LMCG's stock selection model groups factors used to select investments into three major categories: market dynamics, value and quality.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking capital appreciation who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the equity markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan. The value of the Portfolio's investments in foreign securities may fall due to adverse political, social and economic developments abroad, and due to decreases in foreign currency values relative to the US dollar. These risks are greater for investments in emerging market issuers than for issuers in more developed countries.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.78% and 1.78%; Class C—2.51% and 2.51%; Class Y—1.54% and 1.54%; and Class P—1.57% and 1.57% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.95%; Class C—2.70%; Class Y—1.70%; and Class P—1.70% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
2 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 1% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
3 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
5 The MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net) is a market capitalization-weighted index composed of different emerging market countries in Europe, Latin America, and the Pacific Basin. Net total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using a tax rate applicable to nonresident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties. The index is constructed and managed with a view to being fully investable from the perspective of international institutional investors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio's Class P shares declined 8.88% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Index (the "benchmark") fell 4.77%, while the Lipper Global Real Estate Funds category posted a median return of -5.39%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 201. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.) For a detailed commentary on the market environment in general during the reporting period, please refer to page 2.
Subadvisor's comments2
The Portfolio underperformed the benchmark during the reporting period, primarily driven by stock selection. By sector, retail was the largest detractor from results, due to negative stock selection. A zero allocation to the outperforming self storage sector was also a headwind for performance. In contrast, an underweight in the health care sector was the largest contributor to relative results. Positive stock selection in the residential sector was also beneficial during the period.
By region, the US was the largest negative for performance, driven by weak stock selection. Continental Europe and Singapore also detracted from results, both due to stock selection. An underweight in Japan was the largest relative contributor during the period, as it underperformed the benchmark. Overweights in Australia and New Zealand also contributed, as did an underweight in the UK.
By security, non-benchmark exposure to NorthStar Realty Finance (diversified, US) was the leading detractor from performance. A zero weight in Public Storage (self storage, US) was also negative for relative results. We maintained zero weight to self storage during the period based on valuation, as the sector continued to trade at a large premium to net asset value ("NAV"). An overweight to CBL & Associates Properties (retail, US) detracted from performance as well.

Investment process:
Brookfield invests in a diversified portfolio of global securities of companies primarily in the real estate industry, including real estate investment trusts, real estate operating companies, companies whose value is significantly affected by the value of such companies' real estate holdings, and related entities and structures. Brookfield utilizes a fundamental, bottom-up, value-based stock selection methodology.
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All subadvisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Subadvisor's comments – (concluded)
The leading relative contributor by security was a zero weight in underperforming Sun Hung Kai Properties Limited (diversified, Hong Kong). Hong Kong, overall, was a poor performer following the risk-off period that began in August 2015 after fears arose of an economic slowdown in China. An overweight to Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc. (residential, US) also contributed during the period, as did a zero weight in Sumitomo Realty & Development Co., Ltd. (office, Japan).
Derivatives were not used during the reporting period.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking to diversify a portion of their assets into real estate-related investments. Investors should be willing to withstand short-term fluctuations in the equity and real estate markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies or issuers in whose securities the Portfolio invests. The value of the Portfolio's investments in foreign securities may fall due to adverse political, social and economic developments abroad, and due to decreases in foreign currency values relative to the US dollar. These risks are greater for investments in emerging market issuers than for issuers in more developed countries. There are certain risks associated with investing in real estate-related investments, including sensitivity to economic downturns, interest rates, declines in property values and variation in property management.

("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.45%; Class C—2.20%; Class Y—1.20%; and Class P—1.20% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed this expense cap and that UBS AM has not waived the right to do so. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Since inception returns are calculated as of commencement of issuance on December 18, 2006 for Class A and C shares, and January 22, 2007 for Class P shares. Class Y shares commenced issuance on November 30, 2006 and had fully redeemed by February 15, 2007 remaining inactive through December 25, 2008. The inception return of Class Y shares is calculated from December 26, 2008, which is the date the Class Y shares recommenced investment operations. Since inception returns for the Index and Lipper median are shown as of December 31, 2006, which is the month-end after the inception date of the oldest share classes (Class A and Class C).
2 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
3 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 1% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
5 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
6 The FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Index is designed to measure the stock performance of companies engaged in special real estate activities of the North American, European and Asian real estate markets. Relevant real estate activities are defined as the ownership, trading and development of income-producing real estate. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted.

Subadvisors'/Advisors' comments2
Analytic Investors
Our portion of the Portfolio consists of long/short equity positions.3 Our process is based on the premise that investor behavior changes—although slowly—and is fairly persistent from month to month. To support this premise, our model is driven by specific security characteristics within seven groups (such as valuation, quality and liquidity) to help us identify potential investment opportunities. Overall, characteristic positioning was favorable in all categories except within Valuation. Specifically, our overweight positioning to Quality (profit margin and return on assets), Revisions (earning estimate revisions) and Growth (growth in profitability) all added value. This was slightly offset by an emphasis to Valuation (earnings-to-price and sales-to-price), which was not rewarded by investors during the period.
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All subadvisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.
3 When a long position is taken, a security is purchased with the expectation that it will rise in value. A short position is taken when we believe, based on our research, that securities are overpriced, and, therefore, we hope to make a profit when the security falls in value. When shorting an investment, we borrow the security, sell it and then buy an equal number of shares later—hopefully at a lower price—to replace those we borrowed.

An emphasis on low-beta stocks also helped performance, as low-beta securities significantly outperformed high-beta securities during the period. (Beta is a measure of volatility or risk relative to the market as a whole.)
The strategy experienced positive results in all regions, led by North America. While an overweight to the US was a modest drag on performance, stock selection within Canada and the US was particularly strong. Sector positioning was also positive, led by an underweight to energy. While stock selection was strong within energy, consumer discretionary and financials, an overweight to the consumer discretionary sector negatively impacted results. Our top performing equities were short positions in US-based health care company Alkermes and Italian finance company UniCredit. Our worst performers were long positions in US-based McKesson and Total System Services.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting period.
First Quadrant: Global Macro
During the reporting period, positive performance from currency selection was not enough to offset losses from global asset class selection and volatility alpha (which seeks to profit from the difference between prices of options).
The period began with a broad sell-off in global equities, starting with the Chinese market causing widespread panic among investors. We witnessed the VIX (a measurement of market volatility) rise to levels not seen since the US debt downgrade four years ago. This macro backdrop produced different types of opportunities for the program. In particular, we saw opportunities related to the directionality of underlying markets, expressed via relative value positioning in currency. We also identified opportunities related to over and under reaction to changes in the risk landscape as manifested in views taken by the stock country selection.
August 2015 saw an exceptionally positive boost from our currency sleeve amid a steep global equity sell-off. Some of this gain was given back in October 2015 but was recouped by strong results in December 2015 and January 2016. Most of the models added value during the period, with our macroeconomic-based models contributing the most. Notable contributors were a short position to the UK pound and long position to the Japanese yen, while a long Norwegian krone and long New Zealand dollar were the biggest detractors.
Investment process (continued)
First Quadrant employs a "global macro strategy" which is implemented by combining several different complex investment techniques. It uses a "tactical risk allocation" approach across global markets, which increases investment risk, where it believes opportunities for risk-adjusted profit are high and attempts to lower market risks when it believes gains have been realized and future gains are unlikely. First Quadrant also assesses the combination of local market and economic factors as well as global equity, fixed income or currency market factors and attempts to capture inefficiencies in those markets. First Quadrant's strategy is primarily implemented through the use of derivatives. First Quadrant presently manages two separate portions of the Fund's assets, using the aforementioned strategies and investments. With respect to the first portion, First Quadrant seeks positive absolute returns from its global macro strategy, and the returns of this portion are not expected to be closely correlated with those of global equity markets. With respect to the second portion, First Quadrant combines its global macro strategy with passive exposure to global equity markets while targeting a specific level of risk, which is expected to result in returns more closely correlated with those of global equity markets.
Standard Life Investments employs a "global multi-asset strategy" and seeks to achieve a total return by delivering a diversified global portfolio that makes use of multiple strategies across various asset classes. Standard Life Investments aims to exploit market cyclicality and a diverse array of inefficiencies across and within global markets to maximize risk adjusted absolute return. Standard Life Investments' portion of the Portfolio

Stock country selection produced a modest gain during the reporting period. Notable contributors were positions in Germany, Hong Kong and Italy, while key detractors were positions in the UK, Japan and Spain. Volatility alpha suffered from periods of sharp increases in volatility. With equity markets moving in disparate directions, we temporarily reallocated risk until a more favorable market environment returns.
As far as overall global asset class views are concerned, the current volatility environment has driven the models to move the positions around. Increasing market volatility in early 2016 caused the model to close a long position in equities and move short. Unfortunately, the following strong market recovery hurt the short equity position, although a persistent long exposure in bonds helped mitigate some of the losses.
As a general rule, derivatives are the primary instrument used to implement our portion of the Portfolio. Specifically, we used futures in order to implement stock and bond country selection, and global asset class selection strategies. We used currency forwards to implement currency selection. Futures and forwards were used to gain economic exposure in a more cost-efficient manner relative to traditional instruments (e.g., physical stocks, bonds and currencies). The volatility alpha sleeve was implemented using options on futures and indices. Options were used to exploit structural characteristics of options pricing. Overall, the liquidity and low transaction cost of these instruments offers the investment team the ability to be more nimble and to implement at a lower cost.
The only instruments traded in the Portfolio to achieve market exposure are considered derivative instruments. Overall, derivative instruments detracted from performance during the reporting period.
Standard Life Investments
The largest contributors to performance during the reporting period were our US equity technology versus small cap and US equity large cap versus small cap relative value strategies. These strategies—which were implemented through equity futures, options and swaps—benefited as small cap stocks suffered due to economic growth concerns having a larger impact on these shares.
Global equites fell amid elevated volatility on worries of a slowdown in growth and mixed economic data during the period. This was positive for our long equity variance
Investment process (continued)
consists of listed equity, equity-related and debt securities, including exchange traded funds, and will routinely make use of derivatives or other instruments both for investment and hedging purposes. Standard Life Investments may take long and/or short positions, and its derivative investments may include, but are not restricted to, futures, options, swaps, and forward currency contracts.
AQR employs a Managed Futures strategy, which is an active trend-following strategy. Trend-following involves going long assets that have been rising in price and short assets that have been declining in price. The managed futures strategy is primarily implemented through the use of derivatives and invests across three major asset classes: equities, fixed income and currencies. The AQR Managed Futures strategy seeks to generate returns that are uncorrelated to traditional asset classes and may improve portfolio diversification.
UBS AM allocates a portion of the fund's assets primarily to unaffiliated actively- and passively-managed pooled investment vehicles, including ETFs, that it believes are suitable for return generation, risk management (e.g., increased portfolio diversification), or both. In addition, UBS AM may invest in index futures primarily for cash management (i.e., to obtain certain market exposures in the fund and reduce cash holdings) and risk management purposes. UBS AM generally invests in other unaffiliated pooled investment vehicles and index futures that have risk and return objectives that are deemed to be complementary to the other investments and strategies within the fund overall.

strategy—which is implemented through variance swaps—but negative for our European equity and Japanese equity strategies, among others. Our European equity and Japanese equity strategies are implemented through stocks and equity futures.
Treasuries and other safe haven assets fared better, benefiting from rising demand amid increased volatility in equity markets and the collapse in commodity prices. This was negative for our short US duration strategy but additive to our Australian duration and Australian forward start interest rates strategies. These strategies were implemented using bond futures and interest rate swaps.
Central bank monetary policy divergence continued to play a significant role in shaping our returns. The increase in interest rates by the US Federal Reserve Board proved beneficial for the US dollar, while in Europe, additional easing measures by the European Central Bank weighed on the euro. This was positive for our long US dollar versus euro strategy.
As commodity prices declined amid weak demand from China and oversupply concerns, commodity sensitive currencies struggled during the period. Consequently, our long Mexican peso versus Australian dollar strategy detracted from performance as weaker oil prices weighed on the peso. Our currency strategies are implemented using FX forwards and options.
We made extensive use of derivatives in implementing our portion of the Portfolio. We typically utilized futures to gain long and short exposure to equity or bond markets, to vary our overall exposure and to create relative value positions. We used currency forwards to take explicit currency positions or to hedge unwanted currency risk on other strategies. Swaps were used primarily to express our views on interest rates, equity variance and credit default risk, as they can provide an efficient and direct way of accessing these asset classes. We also used total return swaps to take short exposure on specific equity indexes or baskets. We used options positions where we wanted to combine a view on volatility with a view on another asset class, typically equities or currencies. Options were also used to mitigate risks within a strategy. Overall, derivatives were instrumental to the performance and operating efficiency of the Portfolio.
AQR
Our managed futures strategy is an active trend-following strategy that employs a diverse portfolio of derivative instruments (primarily futures, swaps and forwards) to achieve exposure to various global markets. Our strategy generated a small negative absolute return during the reporting period. Long-term trends contributed to performance, while short-term trends detracted from results. By asset class, gains in fixed income and currencies were offset by losses in equities.
Trend following in equities detracted from performance. Losses were driven by a series of reversals in global equity markets. Entering the period, the strategy benefited from sharp sell-offs in global equities through the end of September 2015 due to our short positioning. However, in October global equity markets rallied sharply, causing short-term trends to detract from results. As markets resumed their sell-off toward the end of the period, short-term trends were hurt, but they recouped some losses as they became bearishly positioned in time to capture the downward moves in equity markets.
Investment process (concluded)
Sirios Capital Management employs a fundamental, bottom-up, long/short strategy that is focused primarily on U.S. equities. For long positions, the investment team concentrates on mid/large cap companies where we see unrecognized growth over a 3-5 year period and a favorable valuation. The short positions generally include a selection of liquid large cap companies, sector hedges and index put options.

Currencies were the largest contributor to results, due to outperformance by long-term trends. In particular, a long exposure to the US dollar versus commodity and carry currencies was beneficial. Commodity producer currencies were hurt by weakening commodity prices and concerns over slower growth in China, which weighed on emerging markets. Toward the end of the period, the strategy benefited from long US dollar and Japanese yen positioning as heightened global risk aversion prompted safe haven demand.
Fixed income also contributed to performance, again due to long-term trends. The fixed income strategy benefited during episodes of risk aversion, despite several reversals in fixed income markets. In October 2015, US markets reversed and sold off given expectations of a December Federal Reserve rate hike. Also, European markets saw significant reversals in December due to the European Central Bank's ("ECB") less-than-expected stimulus effort. At the end of the period, the portfolio benefited from being long Japanese government bond futures prior to the Bank of Japan's lowering rates into negative territory and long EURIBOR futures, as the ECB reiterated the possibility for more stimulus.
Most positions in our portion of the Portfolio are implemented through derivative instruments. As a result, performance of the Portfolio is primarily from the performance of derivatives-based positions. Overall, derivatives were instrumental to the performance and operating efficiency of our portion of the Portfolio.
UBS Asset Management
The US Treasury yield curve flattened during the reporting period, producing positive returns in all maturities, particularly in maturities longer than 20 years. Global developed market sovereign bonds modestly outperformed US Treasuries on a currency-hedged basis. With growing risk aversion among investors, credit markets weakened along with most other risk assets, with lower-quality sectors underperforming the most. High yield credit significantly underperformed investment grade credit and both lagged Treasuries. Emerging market securities, particularly commodity exporters, were weak, with local currency debt securities underperforming the most. The US dollar strengthened against most other major currencies, with the Japanese yen being the notable exception.
Over the reporting period, our portion of the portfolio was invested in two third-party funds: Legg Mason BW Absolute Return Opportunities Fund and Scout Unconstrained Bond Fund. We underperformed the Fund's benchmark as both Funds underperformed, with Legg Mason BW Absolute Return Opportunities Fund being the key detractor from results.
Legg Mason BW Absolute Return Opportunities Fund underperformed primarily due to exposure to commodity-based currencies, such as the Brazilian real and the South African rand. This was especially pronounced in the latter part of the third quarter of 2015. These currencies were among the worst performers versus the US dollar over the period. Country selection also detracted from results, as Legg Mason BW Absolute Return Opportunities Fund had exposure to both Brazilian and South African interest rates. The weak performance of Scout Unconstrained Bond Fund was driven by exposure to, and security selection within, investment grade and high yield credit given those sectors' weak results.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting period.
Sirios Capital Management
Our portion of the Portfolio underperformed the HFRI Fund of Funds Composite Index ("Index") during the reporting period. More specifically, we outperformed the Index in three of the six months during the period (October and November 2015 and January 2016) and underperformed the remaining three months (August, September and December 2015). Long positions were the largest detractors from our absolute performance,

partially offset by short positions. The health care, financial and technology/telecom sectors weighed most heavily on gross returns, while returns in the energy/industrial and consumer sectors were more modestly negative.
The most significant individual long contributors to performance were Alphabet, Computer Sciences, Constellation Brands, J.M. Smucker and SolarWinds. Our position in SolarWinds was sold in October 2015 upon a buyout offer that we believe reflected full value. The largest long detractors were Bank of America, DISH Network, NorthStar Realty, Valeant Pharmaceuticals and Western Digital. Our long position in Valeant Pharmaceuticals was sold during the fourth quarter of 2015 based on a change in our fundamental outlook. Our long position in NorthStar was reduced after an expected catalyst occurred, but its valuation responded less than anticipated. Bank of America, DISH Network and Western Digital all remained significant positions in our portion of the Portfolio as of the end of the reporting period.
We had a net exposure of 66% as of January 31, 2016, with a focus on US domestically driven companies. Net exposure was balanced across the consumer (25%), technology/telecom (18%), financial (15%), health care (13%) and energy/industrials (2%) sectors. The 10 largest long positions included Allergan, Bank of America, Constellation Brands, DISH Network, Gilead Sciences, JCDecaux, J.M. Smucker, Realogy Holdings, T-Mobile US and Time Warner.
With respect to the use of derivatives during the period, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge currency risk associated with certain securities denominated in non-US currencies and held a listed warrant. Overall, the use of derivatives resulted in a modest detraction from portfolio performance during the measurement period.
Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for investors seeking long-term capital appreciation who are able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the equity markets and fixed income markets in return for potentially higher returns over the long term. The Portfolio may employ investment strategies that involve greater risks than the strategies used by many other mutual funds, including increased use of short sales (which involve the risk of an unlimited increase in the market value of the security sold short, which could result in a theoretically unlimited loss), leverage and derivative transactions, and hedging strategies. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the issuers of securities in which the Portfolio invests. The value of the Portfolio's investments in foreign securities may fall due to adverse political, social and economic developments abroad, and due to decreases in foreign currency values relative to the US dollar. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2015 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.99% and 1.93%; Class C—2.73% and 2.67%; Class Y—1.78% and 1.72%; and Class P—1.75% and 1.69% Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2016 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, and interest expense relating to short sales, and expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.88%; Class C—2.63%; Class Y—1.63%; and Class P—1.63% The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed these expense caps. The fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement may be terminated by the Portfolio's board at any time and also will terminate automatically upon the expiration or termination of the Portfolio's advisory contract with UBS AM. Upon termination of the agreement, however, UBS AM's three year recoupment rights will survive.
1 Since inception returns are calculated as of commencement of issuance on April 10, 2006 for Class P and Class A shares, and April 11, 2006 for Class C shares. Class Y shares commenced issuance on April 3, 2006, and had fully redeemed by July 27, 2006 remaining inactive through July 22, 2008. The inception return of Class Y shares is calculated from July 23, 2008, which is the date the Class Y shares recommenced investment operations. Since inception returns for the Indices and Lipper median are shown as of April 30, 2006, which is the month-end after the inception date of the oldest share classes (Class P and Class A).
2 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees.
3 Maximum contingent deferred sales charge for Class C shares is 1% imposed on redemptions and is reduced to 0% after one year. Class C shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
4 The Portfolio offers Class Y shares to a limited group of eligible investors, including certain qualifying retirement plans. Class Y shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees.
5 Class P shares do not bear initial or contingent deferred sales charges or ongoing 12b-1 service and distribution fees, but Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
6 The Citigroup Three-Month US Treasury Bill Index is an unmanaged index reflecting monthly return equivalents of yield averages that are not marked to the market and an average of the last three 3-month T-bill month-end rates. 3-month T-bills are the short-term debt obligations of the US government. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
7 The Barclays Global Aggregate Index is an unmanaged broad-based, market capitalization weighted index which is designed to measure the broad global markets for US and non US corporate, government, governmental agency, supranational, mortgage-backed and asset-backed fixed income securities. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
8 The MSCI World Free Index (net) is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets. Net total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties. The index is constructed and managed with a view to being fully investable from the perspective of international institutional investors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
9 The HFRI Fund of Funds Composite Index is a Fund of Funds index with multiple managers through funds or managed accounts. The strategy designs a diversified portfolio of managers with the objective of significantly lowering the risk (volatility) of investing with an individual manager. The Fund of Funds manager has discretion in choosing which strategies to invest in for the portfolio. A manager may allocate funds to numerous managers within a single strategy, or with numerous managers in multiple strategies. The minimum investment in a Fund of Funds may be lower than an investment in an individual hedge fund or managed account. The investor has the advantage of diversification among managers and styles with significantly less capital than investing with separate managers. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to February 17, 2015, if an investor sold or exchanged shares less than 90 days after purchase, a redemption fee of 1.00% of the amount sold or exchanged was deducted at the time of the transaction, except as noted otherwise in the prospectus. For sales or exchanges taking place on or after February 17, 2015 but prior to August 3, 2015, there was a reduction in the redemption holding period from 90 days to 30 days. Effective August 3, 2015, the 1.00% redemption fee imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the portfolios made during the holding periods specified in the prospectus was eliminated. Please refer to the prospectus for further information.
Past performance does not predict future performance, and the performance information provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. The return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance results assume reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates. Total returns for periods of less than one year have not been annualized. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

Portfolio footnotes
* Non-income producing security.
1 Security, or portion thereof, pledged as collateral for investments sold short, written options or futures.
2 Security exempt from registration pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. Regulation S applies to securities offerings that are made outside of the United States and do not involve direct selling efforts in the United States. At January 31, 2016, the value of these securities amounted to 2.11% of net assets.
3 Variable or floating rate security. The interest rate shown is the current rate as of January 31, 2016 and changes periodically.
4 Perpetual investment. Date shown reflects the next call date.
5 Step bond that converts to the noted fixed rate at a designated future date.
6 Rates shown is the discount rate at date of purchase.
7 Illiquid investments as of January 31, 2016.
8 At the maturity date, a net cash flow is exchanged, where the payoff amount is equivalent to the difference between the realized price variance of the reference entity and the strike price multiplied by the notional amount. As a receiver of the realized price variance, the Portfolio would receive the payoff amount when the realized price variance of the reference entity is greater than the strike price and would owe the payoff amount when the variance is less than the strike price. As a payer of the realized price variance, the Portfolio would owe the payoff amount when the realized price variance of the reference entity is greater than the strike price and would receive the payoff amount when the variance is less than the strike price.
9 Payments from/to the counterparty will be received/made upon the occurrence of a failure to pay, obligation acceleration, repudiation or restructuring of the referenced obligation.
10 Payments made/received are based on the notional amount.
11 If the Portfolio is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of the particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation 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.

12 Credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value as of period end 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 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. Wider credit spreads 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. A credit spread identified as "Defaulted" indicates a credit event has occurred for the referenced entity. Credit spreads are unaudited.

STRIP Separate Trading of Registered Interest and Principal of Securities
TBA (To Be Announced) Security is purchased on a forward commitment basis with an approximate principal amount (generally +/- 1.0%) and no definite maturity date. The actual principal amount and maturity date will be determined upon settlement when the specific mortgage pools are assigned.
TIPS Treasury inflation protected securities ("TIPS") are debt securities issued by the US Treasury whose principal and/or interest payments are adjusted for inflation, unlike debt securities that make fixed principal and interest payments. The interest rate paid by the TIPS is fixed, while the principal value rises or falls based on changes in a published Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). Thus, if inflation occurs, the principal and interest payments on TIPS are adjusted accordingly to protect investors from inflationary loss. During a deflationary period, the principal and interest payments decrease, although the TIPS principal amounts will not drop below their face amounts at maturity. In exchange for the inflation protection, the TIPS generally pay lower interest rates than typical US Treasury securities. Only if inflation occurs will TIPS offer a higher real yield than a conventional Treasury bond of the same maturity.

Understanding your Portfolio's expenses (unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transactional costs (as applicable), including sales charges (loads), or ongoing program fees; and (2) ongoing Portfolio costs, including management fees; service and/or distribution (12b-1) fees (if applicable); and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The examples below are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, August 1, 2015 to January 31, 2016.
Actual expenses (unaudited)
The first line for each class of shares in the table below for each Portfolio provides information about its actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over a period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for each class of shares for each respective Portfolio under the heading entitled "Expenses paid during period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes (unaudited)
The second line for each class of shares in the table below for each Portfolio provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on that Portfolio's actual expense ratios for each class of shares and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not that Portfolio's actual return for each class of shares. 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 funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing Portfolio costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs (as applicable), such as sales charges (loads), or program fees. Therefore, the second line in the table for each class of shares for each Portfolio is useful in comparing ongoing Portfolio costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs or program fees were included, your costs would have been higher.

1 Calculated using the average shares method.
2 Total investment return is calculated assuming a $10,000 investment on the first day of each period reported, reinvestment of all dividends and other distributions, if any, at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates, and a sale at net asset value on the last day of each period reported. The figures do not include any applicable sales charges, redemption fees or program fees; results would be lower if they were included. Total investment return for the period of less than one year has not been annualized. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder could pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.
3 Annualized.
4 The investment manager recouped expenses previously reimbursed by the investment manager on behalf of the Portfolio, not to exceed the expense cap.

1 Calculated using the average shares method.
2 Total investment return is calculated assuming a $10,000 investment on the first day of each period reported, reinvestment of all dividends and other distributions, if any, at net asset value on the ex-dividend dates, and a sale at net asset value on the last day of each period reported. The figures do not include any applicable sales charges, redemption fees or program fees; results would be lower if they were included. Total investment return for the period of less than one year has not been annualized. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.
3 Annualized.

Organization and significant accounting policies
PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust") is registered with the US Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end management investment company currently composed of fifteen separate investment portfolios and was organized as a Delaware statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware by Certificate of Trust dated September 9, 1994, as amended June 9, 1995 and thereafter. The trustees of the Trust have authority to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.001 per share.
The Trust has fifteen portfolios available for investment, each having its own investment objectives and policies: PACE Government Money Market Investments (formerly, PACE Money Market Investments), PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments, PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments, PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments, PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments, PACE International Fixed Income Investments, PACE High Yield Investments, PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments, PACE Large Co Growth Equity Investments, PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments, PACE Small/Medium Co Growth Equity Investments, PACE International Equity Investments, PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments (each a "Portfolio" and collectively, the "Portfolios").
Each of the Portfolios is classified as a diversified investment company with the exception of PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments, PACE International Fixed Income Investments, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments. With the exception of PACE Government Money Market Investments (which currently offers Class P shares only) each Portfolio currently offers Class A, Class C, Class Y and Class P shares. Each class represents interests in the same assets of the applicable Portfolio and the classes are identical except for differences in their sales charge structures, ongoing service and distribution charges and certain transfer agency and related services expenses. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges except that each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its service and/or distribution plan, if any. Class Y and Class P shares have no service or distribution plan. The Portfolios' Class P shares currently are available for purchase only to participants in the PACESM Select Advisors Program, except that PACE Government Money Market Investments shares are also available to participants in the PACESM Multi Advisor Program.
The Trust accounts separately for the assets, liabilities and operations of each Portfolio. Expenses directly attributable to each Portfolio are charged to that Portfolio's operations; expenses which are applicable to all Portfolios are allocated among them on a pro rata basis.
In the normal course of business, the Portfolios may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations or that provide indemnification for certain liabilities. The Portfolios' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolios that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolios have not had such claims or losses through January 31, 2016 pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
PACE Government Money Market Investments attempts to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share; the Portfolio has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation and dividend/distribution policies in an attempt to enable it to do so. As with any money market portfolio, there is no assurance, however, that the Portfolio will be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") is the exclusive reference of authoritative US generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative US GAAP for SEC registrants. The Portfolios' financial statements are prepared in

accordance with US GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Valuation of investments
Each Portfolio calculates its net asset value on days that the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open. A Portfolio calculates net asset value separately for each class as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). If trading on the NYSE is halted for the day before 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, a Portfolio's net asset value per share will be calculated as of the time trading was halted.
PACE Government Money Market Investments' net asset value per share is expected to be $1.00 per share, although this value is not guaranteed. PACE Government Money Market Investments values its securities at amortized cost. This method uses a constant amortization to maturity of the difference between the cost of the instrument to the fund and the amount due at maturity.
Each Portfolio (other than PACE Government Money Market Investments) calculates its net asset value based on the current market value, where available, for its portfolio securities. The Portfolios normally obtain market values for their investments from independent pricing sources and broker-dealers. Independent pricing sources may use reported last sale prices, official market closing prices, current market quotations or valuations from computerized evaluation systems that derive values based on comparable investments. An evaluation system incorporates parameters such as security quality, maturity and coupon, and/or research and evaluations by its staff, including review of broker-dealer market price quotations, if available, in determining the valuation of the portfolio investments. If a market value is not readily available from an independent pricing source for a particular investment, that investment is valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the board of trustees (the "board").
The amortized cost method of valuation, which approximates market value, generally is used to value short-term debt instruments with 60 days or less remaining to maturity, unless the board determines that this does not represent fair value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at the daily closing net asset value of the respective investment company. Pursuant to the Portfolios' use of the practical expedient within ASC Topic 820, investments in non-registered investment companies are also valued at the daily closing net asset value. All investments quoted in foreign currencies will be valued daily in US dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates prevailing at the time such valuation is determined by the Portfolios' custodian and accounting agent. Foreign currency exchange rates are generally determined as of the close of the NYSE.
Investments traded in the over-the-counter ("OTC") market and listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. ("NASDAQ") normally are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Other OTC securities are valued at the last bid price on the valuation date available prior to valuation. Investments which are listed on US and foreign stock exchanges are normally valued at the market closing price, the last sale price on the day the securities are valued or, lacking any sales on such day, at the last available bid price.
The board has delegated to the UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") Global Valuation Committee ("GVC") the responsibility for making fair value determinations with respect to the Portfolios' holdings. The GVC is comprised of representatives of management. The GVC provides reports to the board at each quarterly meeting regarding any investments that have been fair valued, valued pursuant to standing instructions approved by the GVC, or where non-vendor pricing sources had been used to make fair value determinations when sufficient information exists during the prior quarter. Fair valuation determinations are subject to review at least monthly by the GVC during scheduled meetings. Pricing decisions, processes, and controls over fair value determinations are subject to internal and external reviews, including annual internal compliance reviews and periodic internal audit reviews of securities valuations.
307

Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
The types of investments for which such fair value pricing may be necessary include, but are not limited to: foreign investments under some circumstances, as discussed below; securities of an issuer that has entered into a restructuring; investments whose trading has been halted or suspended; fixed income securities that are in default and for which there is no current market value quotation; and investments that are restricted as to transfer or resale. Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of an investment's fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition of the investments; and the evaluation of forces which influence the market in which the investments are purchased and sold. Valuing investments at fair value involves greater reliance on judgment than valuing investments that have readily available market quotations. Fair value determinations can also involve reliance on quantitative models employed by an independent third party.
Each Portfolio expects to price most of its portfolio holdings based on current market value, as discussed previously. Investments for which market quotations are not readily available may be valued based upon appraisals received from a pricing service using a computerized evaluation system or formula method that takes into consideration market indices, matrices, yield curves and other specific adjustments. Investments also may be valued based on appraisals derived from information concerning the investment or similar investments received from recognized dealers in those holdings. If a Portfolio concludes that a market quotation is not readily available for a portfolio investment for any number of reasons, including the occurrence of a "significant event" (e.g., natural disaster or governmental action), after the close of trading in its principal domestic or foreign market but before the close of regular trading on the NYSE, the Portfolio will use fair value methods to reflect those events. This policy is intended to assure that each Portfolio's net asset value fairly reflects the value of its portfolio holdings as of the time of pricing. PACE International Equity Investments, PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments may use a systematic fair valuation model provided by an independent third party to value investments principally traded in foreign markets in order to adjust for possible stale pricing that may occur between the close of the foreign exchanges and the time for valuation. If an investment is valued at a "fair value," that value is likely to be different from the last quoted market price for the investment. The use of the fair valuation model may result in investments being transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy at reporting period ends. In cases where investments are traded on more than one exchange, the investments are valued on the exchange designated as the primary market by UBS AM, the investment manager of the Portfolios.
Futures contracts are generally valued at the settlement price established each day on the exchange on which they are traded. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued daily using forward exchange rates quoted by independent pricing services. Swaps and other OTC derivatives are marked to market daily based upon values from third party vendors or quotations from market makers to the extent available. In the event that market quotations are not readily available or deemed unreliable, the swap is valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the board.
US GAAP requires disclosure regarding the various inputs that are used in determining the value of each Portfolio's investments. These inputs are summarized into the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs, including but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risks.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs inclusive of each Portfolio's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.

In accordance with the requirements of US GAAP, a fair value hierarchy has been included near the end of each Portfolio's Portfolio of investments.
In May 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-07, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): "Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)" ("ASU 2015-07"). The modification removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the NAV per share practical expedient. ASU 2015-07 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those fiscal periods. Management is currently evaluating the implications of these changes and their impact on the financial statements and disclosures.
The provisions of ASC Topic 815 "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC Topic 815") require qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk related contingent features in derivative agreements. Since investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statement of operations, they do not qualify for hedge accounting under ASC Topic 815. Accordingly, even though a Portfolio's investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for purposes of disclosure under ASC Topic 815. ASC Topic 815 requires (1) objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation, (2) the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses be disclosed in a tabular format, and (3) information be disclosed about credit-risk contingent features of derivatives contracts. Details of this disclosure can be found below as well as in the Portfolio of investments. Swap agreements, forward foreign currency contracts, swaptions and options written entered into by the Portfolios may contain credit-risk related contingent features that could be triggered subject to certain circumstances. Such circumstances include agreed upon net asset value thresholds. If triggered, the derivative counterparty could request additional cash margin and/or terminate the derivative contract. The aggregate fair value of the derivative contracts that are in a net liability position that contain these triggers can be found in the applicable Portfolio of investments. The aggregate fair value of assets that are already posted as collateral as of January 31, 2016 is reflected in the Statement of assets and liabilities. If the applicable credit-risk related contingent features were triggered as of January 31, 2016, a Portfolio would be required to post additional collateral or may be required to terminate the contract and settle any amounts outstanding. The Portfolios are not aware of any additional credit-risk contingent features on other derivative contracts held by the Portfolios (other than those described earlier). The volume of derivatives that is presented in the Portfolio of investments of each Portfolio is consistent with the derivative activity during the six months ended January 31, 2016.

In January 2013, Accounting Standards Update 2013-01 ("ASU 2013-01"), "Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities", replaced Accounting Standards Update 2011-11 ("ASU 2011-11"), "Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities". ASU 2013-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. ASU 2011-11 was intended to enhance disclosure requirements on the offsetting of financial assets and liabilities. ASU 2013-01 limits the scope of the new balance sheet offsetting disclosures to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities lending and borrowing transactions to the extent that they are (1) offset in the financial statements or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement.
The Portfolios typically enter into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements ("ISDA Master Agreements") or similar master agreements (collectively, "Master Agreements") with its OTC derivative contract counterparties in order to, among other things, reduce its credit risk to counterparties. ISDA Master Agreements include provisions for general obligations, representations, collateral and events of default or termination. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, the Portfolios typically may offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instrument's payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment (close-out netting) in the event of default or termination.

* In some instances, the actual collateral received and/or pledged may be more than the amount shown and may be comprised of cash collateral, non-cash collateral or combination of both.
Repurchase agreements—The Portfolios may purchase securities or other obligations from a bank or securities dealer (or its affiliate), subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date (or upon demand) and price. The Portfolios maintain custody of the underlying obligations prior to their repurchase, either through its regular custodian or through a special "tri-party" custodian or sub-custodian that maintains a separate account for both the Portfolios and their counterparty. The underlying collateral is valued daily in an effort to ensure that the value, including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Portfolios generally have the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Repurchase agreements involving obligations other than US government securities (such as commercial paper, corporate bonds, equities and mortgage loans) may be subject to special risks and may not have the benefit of certain protections in the event of counterparty insolvency. Moreover, repurchase agreements secured by obligations that are not eligible for direct investment under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act or a Portfolio's investment strategies and limitations, may require the Portfolio to promptly dispose of such collateral if the seller or guarantor becomes insolvent. If the seller (or seller's guarantor, if any) becomes
319
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
insolvent, the Portfolios may suffer delays, costs and possible losses in connection with the disposition or retention of the collateral. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. Each Portfolio (with the exception of PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments) may participate in joint repurchase agreement transactions with other funds managed, advised or subadvised by UBS AM.
Under certain circumstances, the Portfolios may engage in a repurchase agreement transaction with a yield of zero in order to invest cash amounts remaining in its portfolio at the end of the day in order to avoid having the Portfolios potentially assessed to a fee for uninvested cash held in a business account at a bank.
Restricted securities—The Portfolios may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities, if any, is included at the end of each Portfolio's Portfolio of investments.
Investment transactions, investment income and expenses—Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions and foreign exchange transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Dividend income is recorded net of withholding taxes on the ex-dividend date ("ex-date") (except in the case of certain dividends from foreign securities which are recorded as soon after the ex-date as the respective Portfolio, using reasonable diligence, becomes aware of such dividends). Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of investments.
Income, expenses (excluding class-specific expenses) and realized/unrealized gains/losses are allocated proportionately to each class of shares based upon the relative net asset value of outstanding shares (or the value of dividend-eligible shares, as appropriate) of each class at the beginning of the day (after adjusting for current capital share activity of the respective classes). Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the applicable class of shares.
Foreign currency translation—The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in US dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into US dollars as follows: (1) the foreign currency market value of investment securities and other assets and liabilities stated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollars based on the current exchange rates each business day; and (2) purchases, sales, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The resulting exchange gains and losses are included in the Statement of operations.
The Portfolios do not generally isolate the effects of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates from the effects of fluctuations in the market prices of securities. However, the Portfolios do isolate the effects of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates when determining the realized gain or loss upon the sale or maturity of foreign currency-denominated debt obligations pursuant to US federal income tax regulations. Net realized foreign currency transaction gain (loss) is treated as ordinary income (loss) for income tax reporting purposes.
Forward foreign currency contracts—Certain Portfolios may enter into forward foreign currency contracts ("forward contracts") as part of their investment strategies, in connection with planned purchases or sales of securities or to hedge the US dollar value of portfolio securities denominated in a particular currency. The Portfolios may also engage in cross-hedging by using forward contracts in one currency to hedge fluctuations in the value of securities denominated in a different currency if the applicable investment subadvisor anticipates that there is a
320
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
correlation between the two currencies. Forward contracts may also be used to shift a Portfolio's exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one country to another.
The Portfolios have no specific limitation on the percentage of assets which may be committed to such contracts; however, the value of all forward contracts will not exceed the value of a Portfolio's total assets. The Portfolios may enter into forward contracts or maintain a net exposure to forward contracts only if (1) the consummation of the contracts would not obligate the Portfolios to deliver an amount of foreign currency in excess of the value of the positions being hedged by such contracts or (2) the Portfolios maintain cash or liquid securities in a segregated account in an amount determined pursuant to the Portfolios' segregation policies as disclosed in the Trust's Statement of Additional Information.
Risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the US dollar or each other.
Fluctuations in the value of open forward contracts are recorded for book purposes as unrealized gains or losses on forward foreign currency contracts by the Portfolios. Realized gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts include net gains or losses recognized by the Portfolios on contracts which have matured.
Securities traded on to-be-announced basis—The Portfolios may from time to time purchase securities on a to-be-announced ("TBA") basis. In a TBA transaction, the Portfolio commits to purchasing or selling securities for which all specific information is not yet known at the time of the trade, particularly the face amount and maturity date of the underlying security transactions. Securities purchased on a TBA basis are not settled until they are delivered to the Portfolio, normally 15 to 45 days later. Beginning on the date the Portfolio enters into a TBA transaction, cash, US government securities or other liquid securities are segregated in an amount equal in value to the purchase price of the TBA security. These transactions are subject to market fluctuations, and their current value is determined in the same manner as for other securities.
Option writing—Certain Portfolios may write (sell) put and call options on securities or derivative instruments in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the markets. When a Portfolio writes a call or a put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Portfolio is included on the Portfolio's Statement of assets and liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written. If an option which the Portfolio has written either expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Portfolio realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security or derivative instrument, and the liability related to such option is extinguished. If a call option which the Portfolio has written is exercised, the Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss (long-term or short-term, depending on the holding period of the underlying security) from the sale of the underlying security or derivative instrument and the proceeds from the sale are increased by the premium originally received. If a put option which the Portfolio has written is exercised, the amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost of the security or derivative instrument which the Portfolio purchases upon exercise of the option.
In writing an option, the Portfolios bear the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the derivative instrument, security or currency underlying the written option. Exercise of an option written by a Portfolio could result in the Portfolio selling or buying a derivative instrument, security or currency at a price different from current market value.
321
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
In the normal course of trading activities, the Portfolios trade and hold certain fair valued derivative contracts that constitute guarantees. Such contracts include written put options, where the Portfolios would be obligated to purchase securities at specified prices (i.e. the options are exercised by the counterparties). The maximum payout for these contracts is limited to the number of put option contracts written and the related strike prices, respectively. At January 31, 2016, PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments had a maximum payout amounts of approximately $8,053,037 relating to written put option contracts. Maximum payout amounts could be offset by the subsequent sale, if any, of assets obtained via the execution of a payout event.
Purchased options—Certain Portfolios may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolio pays a premium which is included on the Statement 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. 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 future, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. Purchased options are shown as portfolio holdings within the Portfolio of investments and are included in the Statement of assets and liabilities in investments in unaffiliated securities, at value.
Futures contracts—Certain Portfolios may purchase or sell futures contracts to increase or reduce their exposure to an asset class without purchasing or selling the underlying securities. They may do this to enhance or realize gains, as a hedge and/or to manage the average duration of the Portfolio. Using futures contracts involves various market risks, including interest rate and equity risk as well as the risks that there may be an illiquid market or that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.
Upon entering into a futures contract, a Portfolio is required to deliver to a broker an amount of cash and/or government securities equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This amount is known as the "initial margin". Subsequent payments, known as "variation margin", generally are made or received by the Portfolio each day depending on the fluctuations in the value of the underlying futures contracts, except that in the case of certain futures contracts that are held through swap contracts, payments may be made or received at settlement. Such variation margin is recorded for financial statement purposes on a daily basis as an unrealized gain or loss on futures until the futures contract is closed or expires, at which time the net gain or loss is reclassified to realized gain or loss on futures.
Loan assignments and participations—Certain Portfolios may invest in secured or unsecured fixed or floating rate loans ("Loans") arranged through private negotiations between a borrowing corporation, government or other entity and one or more financial institutions ("Lenders") which may be in the form of participations ("Participations") in Loans or assignments ("Assignments") of all or a portion of Loans from third parties. A Portfolio may invest in multiple series or tranches of a Loan, which may have varying terms and carry different associated risks. Participations typically result in a Portfolio having a contractual relationship only with the Lender, not with the borrower. A Portfolio has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the Lender selling the Participation and only upon receipt by the Lender of the payments from the borrower. In connection with purchasing Participations, a Portfolio generally has no direct right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement relating to the Loan, or any rights of set-off against the borrower, and a Portfolio may not directly benefit from any collateral supporting the Loan in which it has purchased the Participation. As a result, a Portfolio assumes the credit risk of both the borrower and the Lender that is selling the Participation. In the event of the insolvency of the selling Lender, the Portfolio may be treated as a general creditor of that Lender and may not benefit from any set-off between the Lender and the borrower. A Portfolio will acquire Participations only if its subadvisor determines that the selling Lender is creditworthy. When a Portfolio purchases Assignments from Lenders, it acquires direct rights against the borrower on the Loan. In an Assignment, the Portfolio is entitled to receive
322
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
payments directly from the borrower and, therefore, does not depend on the selling bank to pass these payments onto the Portfolio. However, because Assignments are arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees and assignors, the rights and obligations acquired by a Portfolio as the purchaser of an Assignment may differ from, and be more limited than, those held by the assigning Lender.
Short sales "Against the Box"—Each Portfolio (other than PACE Government Money Market Investments and PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments) may engage in short sales of securities it owns or has the right to acquire at no added cost through conversion or exchange of other securities it owns (short sales "against the box"). To make delivery to the purchaser in a short sale, the executing broker borrows the securities being sold short on behalf of a Portfolio, and that Portfolio is obligated to replace the securities borrowed at a date in the future. When a Portfolio sells short, it establishes a margin account with the broker effecting the short sale and deposits collateral with the broker. In addition, the Portfolio maintains, in a segregated account with its custodian, the securities that could be used to cover the short sale. Each Portfolio may incur transaction costs, including dividend and interest expense, in connection with opening, maintaining and closing short sales "against the box".
A Portfolio might make a short sale "against the box" to hedge against market risks when its subadvisor believes that the price of a security may decline, thereby causing a decline in the value of a security owned by the Portfolio or a security convertible into or exchangeable for a security owned by the Portfolio. In such case, any loss in the Portfolio's long position after the short sale should be reduced by a corresponding gain in the short position. Conversely, any gain in the long position after the short sale should be reduced by a corresponding loss in the short position. The extent to which gains or losses in the long position are reduced will depend upon the amount of the securities sold short relative to the amount of the securities a Portfolio owns, either directly or indirectly, and in the case where the Portfolio owns convertible securities, changes in the investment values or conversion premiums of such securities.
Uncovered short sales—PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments (with respect to securities issued by the US Treasury and TBA securities coupon trades), PACE International Equity Investments, PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments may engage in short sale transactions in which the Portfolio sells a security it does not own (or does not have the right to acquire at no added cost). The Portfolio must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. In a short sale where a Portfolio is not holding a position in the same security (or convertible into the same security), the Portfolio will maintain an account containing cash or liquid assets at such a level that the amount deposited in the account plus that amount deposited with the broker as collateral will, at minimum, equal the current value of the investment sold short. The initial amount of a short sale is recorded as a liability which is marked to market daily. Fluctuations in the value of this liability are recorded as unrealized gains or losses on the Statement of operations. A Portfolio incurs transaction costs, including interest expense, in connection with opening, maintaining and closing short sales. Because PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments, PACE International Equity Investments, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments are multi-managed and have the ability to engage in short sales, one investment advisor may take a short position and another advisor may take a long position in the same security. A Portfolio will be required to pay the buyer for any dividends or other corporate actions and interest payable on securities while those securities are in a short position. These dividends and interest are booked as an expense or liability to the Portfolio on an accrual basis. A Portfolio will incur a loss as a result of the short sale if the price of the security increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which the Portfolio replaces the borrowed security, and a Portfolio will realize a gain if the security declines in price between those same dates. Because a Portfolio's loss on a short sale arises from increases in the value of the investment sold short, such loss, like the potential increase in price of the security sold short, is theoretically unlimited. In addition, a Portfolio's investments held long could decline in value at the same time the value of the investment sold short increases, thereby increasing the Portfolio's potential for loss. PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments did not engage in uncovered short sales during the six months ended January 31, 2016.

Treasury roll transactions—Certain Portfolios may enter into treasury roll transactions. In a treasury roll transaction, a Portfolio sells a Treasury security to a counterparty with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same security at an agreed upon price and date. The Portfolio receives cash from the sale of the Treasury security to use for other investment purposes. For US GAAP purposes, a treasury roll transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and not as a purchase and sale. The difference between the sale price and repurchase price represents net interest income or net interest expense reflective of an agreed upon rate between the Portfolio and the counterparty over the term of the borrowing. The Portfolio will benefit from the transaction if the income earned on the investment purchased with the cash received in the treasury roll transaction exceeds the interest expense incurred by the Portfolio. If the interest expense exceeds the income earned, the Portfolio's net investment income and dividends to shareholders may be adversely impacted. Treasury roll transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities that the Portfolio is required to repurchase may decline below the agreed upon repurchase price of those securities. During the six months ended January 31, 2016, only PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments, PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments and PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments utilized treasury roll transactions.
Pursuant to Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-11, Transfers & Servicing (Topic 860): "Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures" ("ASU 2014-11"), the table below represents the remaining contractual maturity as of January 31, 2016, of the treasury roll transactions accounted for as secured borrowings.

Reverse repurchase agreements—Certain Portfolios may enter into reverse repurchase agreements with qualified third party banks, securities dealers or their affiliates. Interest on the value of reverse repurchase agreements issued and outstanding is based upon competitive market rates at the time of issuance. At the time a Portfolio enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, the Portfolio establishes and maintains a segregated account with the Portfolio's custodian containing liquid securities having a value not less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest, of the reverse repurchase agreement.
There were no reverse repurchase agreements outstanding at period ended January 31, 2016.
Swap agreements—Certain Portfolios may enter into interest rate swap agreements. This type of swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by reference to a specified interest rate(s) for a specified amount. The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other.
Risks may arise as a result of the failure of the counterparty to the swap agreement to comply with the terms of the agreement. The loss incurred by the failure of a counterparty is generally limited to the net interest payment to be received by the Portfolio. Therefore, the Portfolio considers the creditworthiness of the counterparty to a swap agreement in evaluating potential credit risk.

The Portfolios accrue for interim payments on swap agreements on a daily basis, with the net amount recorded within swap agreements on the Statement of assets and liabilities. Once interim payments are settled in cash, the net amount is recorded as realized gain/loss on swaps, in addition to realized gain/loss recorded upon the termination of swap contracts on the Statement of operations. Fluctuations in the value of swap agreements are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized appreciation or depreciation of swaps within the Statement of operations.
Inflation swap agreements are used to hedge inflation risk by transferring inflation risk from one party to another through an exchange of cash flows. In an inflation swap, one party pays a fixed rate on a notional principal amount while the other party pays a floating rate linked to an inflation index on that same notional amount. The party paying the floating rate pays the inflation adjusted rate multiplied by the notional principal amount. If the average inflation rate over the term of the swap is the same as the fixed rate of the swap, the two legs will have the same value and the swap will break even.
Credit default swap agreements involve commitments to make or receive payments in the event of a default of a security or a credit event. As a buyer, the Portfolio would make periodic payments to the counterparty, and the Portfolio would receive payments only upon the occurrence of a credit event. If no credit event occurs, the Portfolio will lose its periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract. However, if a credit event does occur, the Portfolio typically would receive full notional value for a reference obligation that may have little or no value. As a seller, the Portfolio would receive periodic payments from the counterparty, and the Portfolio would make payments only upon the occurrence of a credit event. If no default or credit event occurs, the Portfolio will gain the periodic stream of payments it received over the term of the contract and the counterparty will lose its periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract. However, if a default or credit event occurs, the Portfolio typically pays full notional value for a reference obligation that may have little or no value. Credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the Portfolio had invested in the reference obligation directly and are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk.
Credit default swap agreements on credit indices involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a write-down, principal shortfall, interest shortfall or default of all or part of the referenced entities comprising the credit index. A credit index is a list of a basket of credit instruments or exposures designed to be representative of some part of the credit market as a whole. These indices are made up of referenced credits that are judged by a poll of dealers to be the most liquid entities in the credit default swap market based on the sector of the index. Components of the indices may include, but are not limited to, investment grade securities, high yield securities, asset backed securities, emerging markets, and/or various credit ratings within each sector. Credit indices are traded using credit default swaps with standardized terms including a fixed spread and standard maturity dates. An index credit default swap references all the names in the index, and if there is a default, the credit event is settled based on that name's weight in the index. The composition of the indices changes periodically, usually every six months, and for most indices, each name has an equal weight in the index. A Portfolio may use credit default swaps on credit indices to hedge a portfolio of credit default swaps or bonds with a credit default swap on indices which is less expensive than it would be to buy many credit default swaps to achieve a similar effect. Credit default swaps on indices are benchmarks for protecting investors owning bonds against default, and traders use them to speculate on changes in credit quality.
Credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event. If a credit event occurs and cash settlement is not elected, a variety of other deliverable obligations may be delivered in lieu of the specific referenced obligation. The ability to deliver other obligations may result in a cheapest-to-deliver option (the buyer of protection's right to choose the deliverable obligation with the lowest value following a credit event). The Portfolio may use credit default swaps on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country to provide a measure of protection against defaults of the issuers

(i.e., to reduce risk where the Portfolio owns or has exposure to the referenced obligation) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer's default.
The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as a 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 which may exceed the amount of the value reflected on the Statement of assets and liabilities. Notional amounts of all credit default swap agreements outstanding as of January 31, 2016 for which a Portfolio is the seller of protection are disclosed under the sections "Credit default swaps on credit indices—sell protection" and "Credit default swaps on corporate and sovereign issues—sell protection" in the Portfolios of investments. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into, if any, by a Portfolio for the same referenced entity or entities.
Total return swap contracts involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for a market-linked return both based on notional amounts. To the extent the total return of the security or index underlying the transactions exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Portfolio will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty.
Variance swap agreements involve two parties agreeing to exchange cash flows based on the measured variance (or square of volatility) of a specified underlying asset. One party agrees to exchange a "fixed rate" or strike price payment for the "floating rate" or realized price variance on the underlying asset with respect to the notional amount. At inception, the strike price is generally chosen such that the fair value of the swap is zero. At the maturity date, a net cash flow is exchanged, where the payoff amount is equivalent to the difference between the realized price variance of the underlying asset and the strike price multiplied by the notional amount. As a receiver of the realized price variance, the Portfolio would receive the payoff amount when the realized price variance of the underlying asset is greater than the strike price and would owe the payoff amount when the variance is less than the strike price. As a payer of the realized price variance the Portfolio would owe the payoff amount when the realized price variance of the underlying asset is greater than the strike price and would receive the payoff amount when the variance is less than the strike price.
Certain clearinghouses currently offer clearing for limited types of derivatives transactions, such as interest and credit derivatives. In a cleared derivative transaction, a Portfolio typically enters into the transaction with a financial institution counterparty, and performance of the transaction is effectively guaranteed by a central clearinghouse, thereby reducing or eliminating the Portfolio's exposure to the credit risk of its original counterparty. The Portfolio will be required to post specified levels of margin with the clearinghouse or at the instruction of the clearinghouse; the margin required by a clearinghouse may be greater than the margin the Portfolio would be required to post in an uncleared transaction. Only a limited number of transactions are currently eligible for clearing. Centrally cleared swaps, if any, are reported on the Statement of assets and liabilities based on variation margin received or paid, if any.
The use of swaps involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio security transactions. If a Portfolio's subadviser is incorrect in its forecast of market values, interest rates and other applicable factors, the investment performance of the Portfolios will be less favorable than it would have been if this investment technique was never used. Swaps do not involve the delivery of securities and are subject to counterparty risk. If the other party to a swap defaults and fails to consummate the transaction, a Portfolio's risk of loss will consist of the net amount of interest or other payments that the Portfolio is contractually entitled to receive. Therefore, the Portfolio would consider the creditworthiness of the counterparty to a swap agreement in evaluating potential credit risk.
Dividends and distributions—Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amounts of dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations,

which may differ from US GAAP. These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Concentration of risk—Investing in securities of foreign issuers and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States. These risks include revaluation of currencies, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values and possible adverse political, social and economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry, country or region, which could cause the securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable US companies and US government securities. These risks are greater with respect to securities of issuers located in emerging market countries in which PACE International Fixed Income Investments, PACE High Yield Investments, PACE International Equity Investments, PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments are authorized to invest.
Small capitalization ("small cap") companies may be more vulnerable than larger capitalization companies to adverse business or economic developments. Small cap companies may also have limited product lines, markets or financial resources, and may be dependent on a relatively small management group. Securities of such companies may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of larger capitalization companies or the market averages in general and therefore may involve greater risk than investing in larger capitalization companies. In addition, small cap companies may not be well-known to the investing public, may not have institutional ownership and may have only cyclical, static or moderate growth prospects. These risks are greater with respect to the securities in which PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments and PACE Small/Medium Co Growth Equity Investments tend to invest.
Investments in bonds with ratings of BB (Standard & Poor's Ratings Group) or Ba (Moody's Investors Service, Inc.) or below (commonly referred to as "high yield" bonds), or deemed of equivalent quality, have an increased risk of defaulting or otherwise being unable to honor a financial obligation. These securities are considered to be predominantly speculative with respect to an issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligations. Lower-quality bonds are more likely to be subject to an issuer's default or downgrade than investment grade (higher-quality) bonds.
The ability of the issuers of debt securities held by the Portfolios to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments particular to a specific industry, country, state or region.

Under normal conditions, the Portfolios invest cash collateral from securities lending activities into an affiliated private money market fund, UBS Private Money Market Fund LLC ("Private Money Market"), which operates in compliance with most of the substantive provisions of Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Private Money Market is managed by UBS AM and is currently offered as a cash management option to mutual funds and certain other accounts managed by the Portfolios' Investment Manager. UBS AM acts as managing member and receives a management fee from Private Money Market payable monthly in arrears at the annual rate of 0.10% of Private Money Market's average daily members' equity, minus the aggregate operating expenses of, and incurred by, Private Money Market during each such related month, not including investment expenses (including brokerage commissions, taxes, interest charges and other costs with respect to transactions in securities) and extraordinary expenses including litigation expenses, if any. UBS AM may, in its sole discretion, waive all or any portion of the management fee to which it may be entitled from time to time in order to maintain operating expenses at a certain level. Distributions received from Private Money Market, net of fee rebates paid to borrowers, are reflected as securities lending income in the Statement of operations.

In August 2013, UBS AM made a voluntary cash payment of $2,430 to PACE Government Money Market Investments in order to address a differential between the number of shares outstanding and the Portfolio's net assets. The differential was attributable to historical, embedded capital losses that were experienced by the Portfolio over several years prior to the credit crisis of 2008. The voluntary payment to the Portfolio was not required to maintain a stable net asset value per share. The payment has removed a small, historical deviation that was reflected in the Portfolio's market price based and amortized cost net asset value per share.

The Portfolios have been informed that Professor Feldberg's role at Morgan Stanley does not involve matters directly affecting any UBS funds.

Morgan Stanley received compensation in connection with these trades, which may have been in the form of a "mark-up" or "mark-down" of the price of the securities, a fee from the issuer for maintaining a commercial paper program, or some other form of compensation. Although the precise amount of this compensation is not generally known by the investment manager, it is believed that under normal circumstances it represents a small portion of the total value of the transactions.
Service and distribution plans
UBS Asset Management (US) Inc. ("UBS AM (US)") is the principal underwriter of each Portfolio's shares. Under separate plans of service and/or distribution pertaining to Class A and Class C shares, the Portfolios (with the exception of PACE Government Money Market Investments, which only offers Class P shares), pay UBS AM (US) monthly service fees at the annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class A and Class C shares and monthly distribution fees (1) at the annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares for PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments, PACE Large Co Growth Equity Investments, PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments, PACE Small/Medium Co Growth Equity Investments, PACE International Equity Investments, PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments and (2) at the annual rate of 0.50% of the average daily net assets of Class C shares for PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments, PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments, PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments, PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments, PACE International Fixed Income Investments and PACE High Yield Investments.

Transfer agency and related services fees
UBS Financial Services Inc. provides certain services to the Portfolios pursuant to a delegation of authority from BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. ("BNY Mellon"), the Portfolios' transfer agent, and is compensated for these services by BNY Mellon, not the Portfolios.
Effective July 1, 2013, UBS Financial Services Inc. voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the fee that it would otherwise have received from BNY Mellon with respect to PACE Government Money Market Investments so that BNY Mellon would correspondingly reduce the fees it would have charged to that Portfolio. Given that UBS AM has voluntarily undertaken to reduce its fees and/or reimburse expenses to keep the Portfolio's yield at or above a certain level, and that such amount exceeds the reduction in BNY Mellon's fees, the net effect of BNY Mellon's pass through of the waiver by UBS Financial Services Inc. is to partially reduce the amount that UBS AM would have otherwise voluntarily waived/reimbursed. For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the amount of the reduction in transfer agency and related services fees charged by BNY Mellon to the Portfolio was $135,366, which reflected an equal amount of compensation that was voluntarily waived by UBS Financial Services Inc. Voluntary fee waiver/expense reimbursement arrangements may end at any time.
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, UBS Financial Services Inc. received from BNY Mellon, not the Portfolios, total delegated services fees as follows:
Portfolio | | Delegated services fees earned | |

Securities lending
Each Portfolio may lend securities up to 331/3% of its total assets to qualified broker-dealers or institutional investors. The loans are secured at all times by cash, US government securities or irrevocable letters of credit in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis and adjusted accordingly.
The Portfolio will regain ownership of loaned securities to exercise certain beneficial rights; however, each Portfolio may bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower fail financially. Each Portfolio receives compensation for lending its securities from interest or dividends earned on the cash, US government securities or irrevocable letters of credit held as collateral, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower plus reasonable administrative and custody fees. Cash collateral received is invested in Private Money Market, which is included in each Portfolio's Portfolio of investments. State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as the Portfolios' lending agent.
In addition, PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments and PACE International Equity Investments participate in State Street's enhanced custody program. Through this program, State Street is capable of facilitating the Portfolios' short selling activity at a lower cost. A portion of the cash collateral received in connection with the Portfolios' securities lending activity is pledged back to State Street for the financing of short sales. This amount is shown as cash collateral on investments sold short in the Statement of assets and liabilities.
At January 31, 2016, the following Portfolios had securities on loan at value, cash collateral and non-cash collateral as follows:
Portfolio | | Value of securities on loan | | Cash collateral | | Non-cash collateral* | | Total collateral | | Security types held as non-cash collateral | |

Redemption fees
Prior to February 17, 2015, each class of each series of the Trust, with the exception of PACE Government Money Market Investments, imposed a 1% redemption fee on shares sold or exchanged within 90 days of their purchase date, subject to limited exemptions as noted in the prospectuses. This amount is paid to the applicable Portfolio. The redemption fees retained by the Portfolios are disclosed in the Statement of changes in net assets. For the six months ended January 31, 2016, redemption fees represent less than $0.005 per share.
Effective February 17, 2015, for purchases of shares on or after that date, the redemption fee was calculated as a percentage of the amount redeemed within 30 days of purchase, if applicable. Effective August 3, 2015, for purchases of shares on or after that date, the redemption fee was eliminated.
Federal tax status
Each of the Portfolios intends to distribute substantially all of its income and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, net realized capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, each Portfolio intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax.
The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2015 was as follows:
Portfolio | | Tax-exempt income | | Ordinary income | | Long term realized capital gains | | Return of capital | |

ASC 740-10 "Income Taxes—Overall" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken. The Portfolios have conducted an analysis and concluded as of January 31, 2016 that, other than PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments, there are no significant uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition in the financial statements. As of January 31, 2016, PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments has recognized a liability of $358,667 related to uncertain tax positions of which $325,095 is included in payable foreign withholding taxes and foreign capital gains taxes and $33,572 is included in deferred foreign capital gain taxes payable in the Statement of assets and liabilities. The Portfolios recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of operations. During the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolios did not incur any interest or penalties.
Under the applicable foreign tax laws, gains on certain securities held in certain foreign countries may be subject to taxes will be paid by the Portfolios.
Each of the tax years in the four year period ended July 31, 2015, remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.
Regulatory developments
On July 23, 2014, the SEC amended certain regulations that govern money market funds registered under the 1940 Act. The most significant changes will not become mandatory until October 2016. The most significant

change is a requirement that institutional prime and institutional municipal money market funds move to a floating net asset value and change an accounting methodology that had been used for decades. In addition, all prime and municipal money market funds will be subject to potential redemption fees/gates under limited circumstances prescribed in the new regulations. Government, Treasury, retail prime and retail municipal money market funds will continue to be permitted to transact at a stable $1.00 share price. UBS AM is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes on PACE Government Money Market Investments and expects to update shareholders further in advance of the October 2016 deadline.

September 2015 Board Meeting
Pacific Investment Management Company LLC
Trustees' Considerations
Background—At a meeting of the board of PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust") on September 21-22, 2015, the members of the board, including the trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust (the "Independent Trustees") as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, considered the approval of amendment of the subadvisory agreement between UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC ("PIMCO") (the "Subadvisory Agreement") with respect to a series of the Trust, PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments (the "Fund"). Management discussed with the board its proposal to lower the subadvisory fee payable by UBS AM to PIMCO, which would be effective as of September 1, 2015. Since the board had approved the renewal of the Subadvisory Agreement at a meeting held on July 14-15, 2015 (the "July Meeting"), and, other than as discussed below, there had been no material changes in the information presented, the board addressed certain of the relevant considerations by reference to their considerations and determinations at the July Meeting. The board also received a memorandum from UBS AM discussing the proposed new fee structure.
In its consideration of the approval of the amendment of the Subadvisory Agreement, the board considered the following factors:
Nature, extent and quality of the services under the Subadvisory Agreement—UBS AM represented that there was expected to be no diminution in the nature, extent or quality of the services provided to the Fund by UBS AM or PIMCO. The nature, extent and quality of services provided had been considered at the July Meeting, and there had been no material changes in this information. The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided to the Fund under the amended Subadvisory Agreement.
Subadvisory fees—The board reviewed and considered the proposed contractual subadvisory fee to be payable by UBS AM to PIMCO in light of the nature, extent and quality of the subadvisory services provided by PIMCO. The board noted that the proposed contractual subadvisory fee would result in a lower subadvisory fee to be paid by UBS AM, provided that the aggregate Trust assets managed by PIMCO remain above $1 billion. The board noted that if the level of aggregate Trust assets managed by PIMCO fell below $1 billion, the subadvisory fee to be paid by UBS AM would revert back to the current fee rate. The board also noted that UBS AM voluntarily offered to pass onto the shareholders (via a corresponding voluntary waiver of its management fee charged to the Fund) the subadvisory fee savings that UBS AM will experience as a result of the new fee rate. The board determined that the proposed subadvisory fee was reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by PIMCO.
Fund performance—The board had considered the Fund's performance at the July Meeting. The board also received and considered information provided by UBS AM, including relative performance information from independent providers of investment company data. The board concluded that the Fund's investment performance was acceptable.
Advisor profitability—Profitability of PIMCO or its affiliates, or UBS AM or its affiliates, in providing services to the Fund was not a significant factor considered by the board, as the subadvisory fee is paid by UBS AM out of the management fee paid to it by the Fund, and not by the Fund. As noted above, the board observed that the contractual subadvisory fee payable by UBS AM to PIMCO would be lower than the fee currently paid by UBS AM to PIMCO. The board indicated that it would further consider the implications, if any, of this lower subadvisory

expense to UBS AM and the fee waiver noted above, among other matters, when it engages in its next full UBS AM management contract review, or before if appropriate. In this regard, it was noted that UBS AM provides updated profitability data on the Fund on an ongoing quarterly basis, which provides the board with other opportunities to monitor the impact of the proposed changes on profitability going forward.
Economies of scale—The board noted that, as the subadvisory fee for the Fund is paid by UBS AM, not by the Fund, consideration of economies of scale with respect specifically to the subadvisory fee was not relevant.
Other benefits to PIMCO—The board had considered other benefits, including tangible ancillary benefits and intangible benefits, that PIMCO could receive from its association with the Fund at the July Meeting.
In light of all of the foregoing, the board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved amendment of the Subadvisory Agreement for the Fund. No single factor reviewed by the board was identified by the board as the principal factor in determining whether to approve amendment of the Subadvisory Agreement. The Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process.

The board also noted that UBS AM voluntarily offered to pass onto the shareholders (via a corresponding voluntary waiver of its management fee charged to the Fund) the subadvisory fee savings that UBS AM will experience as a result of the new fee structure.

November 2015 Board Meeting
Aviva Investors Americas LLC
Trustees' Considerations
Background—At a meeting of the board of PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust") on November 17-18, 2015, the members of the board, including the trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust (the "Independent Trustees") as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, considered and approved the proposed subadvisory agreement between UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") and Aviva Investors Americas LLC ("Aviva") (the "Subadvisory Agreement") with respect to PACE Alternative Strategies Investments (the "Portfolio"). Management discussed with the board its proposal to reduce the target allocation of the Portfolio's assets managed by Standard Life Investments Limited ("Standard Life") from 45% to 30% and to reallocate a portion of the assets managed by Standard Life (i.e., 15%) to Aviva. In considering the approval of the Subadvisory Agreement, the board was able to draw on its knowledge of the Trust, its portfolios and UBS AM. The board recognized its familiarity with UBS AM and the investment management and subadvisory agreements for this and the other portfolios of the Trust, including the extensive materials the board had previously reviewed in connection with the annual reconsideration of the contracts for the portfolios. The board also received a memorandum from UBS AM discussing UBS AM's reasons for recommending Aviva as a subadvisor to the Portfolio.
In its consideration of the approval of the Subadvisory Agreement, the board considered the following factors:
Nature, extent and quality of the services under the Subadvisory Agreement—The board's evaluation of the services to be provided by Aviva to the Portfolio took into account the board's knowledge and familiarity gained as board members of funds in the UBS New York fund complex, including the Trust and its portfolios. It reviewed the purposes and investment objective of the Portfolio and UBS AM's overall plan to meet the Portfolio's stated purposes and objective. The board considered management's reasons for recommending the appointment of Aviva as a subadvisor to the Portfolio, including its "due diligence" concerning Aviva and its belief that Aviva's fundamental global macro strategy would benefit the Portfolio by, among other reasons, improving the Portfolio's ability to generate risk-adjusted returns over full business cycles and complementing the strategies provided by other subadvisors to the Portfolio. The board also received materials from Aviva detailing its investment philosophy and met with representatives of Aviva, who discussed with the board that investment philosophy and process and the backgrounds and qualifications of the portfolio management team. The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services expected to be provided to the Portfolio under the proposed Subadvisory Agreement.
Subadvisory fee—The board reviewed and considered the proposed contractual subadvisory fee to be payable by UBS AM to Aviva in light of the nature, extent and quality of the subadvisory services anticipated to be provided by Aviva. The board noted that the proposed contractual subadvisory fee would result in a net increase in the subadvisory fees paid by UBS AM with respect to the Portfolio. The board also noted that the net increase in the subadvisory fees would be reflected by the removal of the Portfolio's voluntary management fee waiver by UBS AM. The board noted UBS AM's view that the removal of the voluntary waiver was appropriate in light of the proposed enhancements to the Portfolio, and the increased complexity in managing the Portfolio, as a result of adding Aviva as a new subadviser. The board determined that the proposed subadvisory fee was reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services proposed to be provided to the Portfolio under the Subadvisory Agreement.
Fund performance—The board received and considered composite performance information provided by Aviva. The board also noted that, as Aviva would be a new subadvisor to the Portfolio, the current performance of the Portfolio was not a significant factor in the consideration of the approval of the Subadvisory Agreement.

Advisor profitability—Profitability of Aviva or its affiliates or UBS AM or its affiliates in providing services to the Portfolio was not a significant factor considered by the board, as the subadvisory fee would be paid by UBS AM out of the management fee paid to it by the Portfolio, and not by the Portfolio.
Economies of scale—The board noted that, as the subadvisory fee for the Portfolio would be paid by UBS AM, not by the Portfolio, consideration of economies of scale with respect specifically to the subadvisory fee was not relevant.
Other benefits to Aviva—The board was informed by management that Aviva's relationship with the Portfolio would be limited to its provision of subadvisory services to the Portfolio and that therefore management believed that Aviva would not receive tangible ancillary benefits as a result of its relationship with the Portfolio, with the exception of possible benefits from soft dollars (e.g., research credits related to transaction commissions) for the Portfolio (which would also potentially benefit the Portfolio). The board recognized that Aviva could receive intangible benefits from its association with the Portfolio, such as increased name recognition or publicity from being selected as a subadvisor to the Portfolio after an extensive review process. Similarly, the Portfolio could benefit from having a subadvisor with an established or well-regarded reputation.
In light of all of the foregoing, the board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the proposed Subadvisory Agreement for the Portfolio. No single factor reviewed by the board was identified by the board as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Subadvisory Agreement. The Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process.

Trustees' Considerations
Background—At a special telephonic meeting of the board of PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust") on December 29, 2015, the members of the board, including the trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust (the "Independent Trustees") as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, considered and approved the proposed interim subadvisory agreement between UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") and Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated ("Baird") (the "Interim Subadvisory Agreement") with respect to PACE International Equity Investments (the "Portfolio"). Management discussed with the board its proposal to appoint Baird as a subadvisor to the Portfolio. It was noted that Chautauqua Capital Management, LLC ("Chautauqua") has served as a subadvisor to the Portfolio since August 2013. Management explained that, on November 24, 2015, Chautauqua and Baird announced that they had entered into an agreement for the sale of Chautauqua to Baird (the "Transaction"). The Transaction was expected to be completed in early 2016. Management stated that, following the Transaction, the investment team and strategy were expected to continue to operate under the Chautauqua name as an autonomous division of Baird. Management further stated that there are no expected changes to investment personnel or trading functions, but all non-investment related services would thereafter primarily be supported by Baird. Management explained that because the change in ownership of Chautauqua would constitute an "assignment," the current subadvisory agreement with Chautauqua would terminate automatically upon consummation of the Transaction and, if approved, the Interim Subadvisory Agreement would become effective. Management explained that because the Transaction is expected to be completed prior to the board's next in-person meeting, Baird has agreed to waive its subadvisory fee under the proposed Interim Subadvisory Agreement. Management noted that UBS AM has agreed to corresponding waivers of its management fee for the duration of the Baird fee waiver. The board recognized its familiarity with UBS AM and the investment management and subadvisory agreements for this and the other portfolios of the Trust, including the extensive materials the board had previously reviewed in connection with the annual reconsideration of the contracts for the portfolios. The board also received a memorandum from UBS AM discussing UBS AM's reasons for recommending Baird as a subadvisor to the Portfolio.
In its consideration of the approval of the Interim Subadvisory Agreement, the board considered the following factors:
Nature, extent and quality of the services under the Interim Subadvisory Agreement—The board's evaluation of the services to be provided by Baird to the Portfolio took into account the board's knowledge and familiarity gained as board members of funds in the UBS New York fund complex, including the Trust and its portfolios. The board considered management's reasons for recommending the appointment of Baird as a subadvisor to the Portfolio, including its "due diligence" concerning Baird and that there are no expected changes to investment personnel or trading functions as a result of the Transaction. In considering the approval of the Interim Subadvisory Agreement, the board was able to draw on its knowledge of the Trust, its portfolios and UBS AM. The board was also able to draw on its knowledge of the current investment team members, including materials it previously received from, and meetings it previously held with, representatives of Chautauqua who discussed with the board the investment philosophy and the backgrounds and qualifications of the investment team. The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services expected to be provided to the Portfolio under the proposed Interim Subadvisory Agreement.
Subadvisory fee—The board considered that Baird has agreed to waive its subadvisory fee under the proposed Interim Subadvisory Agreement and that UBS AM has agreed to corresponding waivers of its management fee for the duration of the Baird fee waiver. Management stated that it expects to present a subadvisory agreement at the
361
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Board approvals of subadvisory agreements (unaudited)
board's next in-person meeting on substantially similar terms, and at the same fee rate, as the current Chautauqua subadvisory agreement.
Fund performance—The board noted that UBS AM believes that the investment team will continue to perform at its current level after the Transaction. The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the performance of the Portfolio.
Advisor profitability—Profitability of Baird or its affiliates or UBS AM or its affiliates in providing services to the Portfolio was not a significant factor considered by the board, as the subadvisory fee would be waived under the proposed Interim Subadvisory Agreement.
Economies of scale—The board noted that, as the subadvisory fee for the Portfolio would be waived under the proposed Interim Subadvisory Agreement, consideration of economies of scale with respect specifically to the subadvisory fee was not relevant.
Other benefits to Baird—The board was informed by management that Baird's relationship with the Portfolio would be limited to its provision of subadvisory services to the Portfolio and that therefore management believed that Baird would not receive tangible ancillary benefits as a result of its relationship with the Portfolio, with the exception of possible benefits from soft dollars (e.g., research credits related to transaction commissions) for the Portfolio (which would also potentially benefit the Portfolio). The board recognized that Baird could receive intangible benefits from its association with the Portfolio, such as increased name recognition or publicity from being selected as a subadvisor to the Portfolio after an extensive review process. Similarly, the Portfolio could benefit from having a subadvisor with an established or well-regarded reputation.
In light of all of the foregoing, the board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the proposed Interim Subadvisory Agreement for the Portfolio. No single factor reviewed by the board was identified by the board as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Interim Subadvisory Agreement. The Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process.

PACE® Government Money Market Investments
Semiannual Report
January 31, 2016
PACE Government Money Market Investments
On September 22, 2015, the Portfolio's Board of Trustees ("the Board") approved a new policy on behalf of the Portfolio to invest at least 99.5% of its total assets in cash, government securities and/or repurchase agreements that are collateralized fully by cash or government securities to allow the Portfolio to qualify as a government money market fund, as defined under the amended Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. In addition, the Board approved changing the Portfolio's name to PACE Government Money Market Investments to ensure that the Portfolio is understood to be a government money market fund. In connection with the change to the Portfolio's name, the Portfolio also adopted a nonfundamental investment policy that the Portfolio invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in government securities, including government securities subject to repurchase agreements. The changes became effective on November 28, 2015.
Performance
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio returned 0.01% before the deduction of the maximum PACE program fee.1 Please remember that the PACE
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.

Objective:
Current income consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity.
Investment process:
The Portfolio is a money market mutual fund and seeks to maintain a stable price of $1.00 per share, although it may be possible to lose money by investing in this Portfolio. The Portfolio invests in a diversified portfolio of high-quality money market instruments of governmental issuers. Security selection is based on the assessment of relative values and changes in market and economic conditions.

program fee is assessed outside the Portfolio at the PACE program account level. The program fee does not impact the determination of the Portfolio's net asset value per share. For comparison purposes, the median return of the Lipper Money Market Funds category was 0.01%. (Returns over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 4. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.)
Advisor's Comments
In December 2015, the US Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed") modestly raised the federal funds rate from a historically low range between 0% and 0.25% to a range between 0.25% and 0.50%.The federal funds rate or the "fed funds rate," is the rate US banks charge one another for funds they borrow on an overnight basis. While the yields on a wide range of short-term investments moved higher over the period as the market anticipated the Fed action as well as potential future actions into 2016, yields still remain low by historical comparison. As a result, the Portfolio's yields remained low during the reporting period.
We tactically adjusted the Portfolio's weighted average maturity ("WAM") throughout the six-month review period. When the reporting period began, the Portfolio had a WAM of 35 days. This was decreased to 20 days at the end of the reporting period.
Several adjustments were made to the Portfolio's sector and issuer positioning during the six-month period due to the Fund's aforementioned change to a government money market fund. We significantly increased the Portfolio's exposures to, US government and agency obligations and repurchase agreements. Conversely, we eliminated our allocation to commercial paper, certificates of deposit and short-term corporate obligations. (Repurchase agreements are

transactions in which the seller of a security agrees to buy it back at a predetermined time and price or upon demand.)

Understanding your Portfolio's expenses (unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) on-going program fees; and (2) ongoing Portfolio costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example below is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, August 1, 2015 to January 31, 2016.
Actual expenses
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over a period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading "Expenses paid during period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate your actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Understanding your Portfolio's expenses (unaudited) (concluded)
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing Portfolio costs only and do not reflect any program fees. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing Portfolio costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if program fees were included, your costs would have been higher.
| | Beginning account value August 1, 2015 | | Ending account value January 31, 2016 | | Expenses paid during period1 08/01/15 to 01/31/16 | | Expense ratio during the period | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,000.10 | | | $ | 0.90 | | | | 0.18 | % | |
Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) | | | 1,000.00 | | | | 1,024.23 | | | | 0.92 | | | | 0.18 | | |
1 Expenses are equal to the Portfolio's annualized net expense ratios, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184 divided by 366 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Organization and significant accounting policies
PACE Government Money Market Investments (formerly, PACE Money Market Investments) (the "Portfolio") is a diversified portfolio of PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust"), which was organized as a Delaware statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware by Certificate of Trust dated September 9, 1994, as amended June 9, 1995 and thereafter, and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), as amended, as an open-end management investment company. The trustees of the Trust have authority to issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.001 per share.
The Trust has fifteen Portfolios available for investment, each having its own investment objectives and policies. Shares of the Portfolio currently are available only to participants in the PACESM Select Advisors Program and the PACESM Multi Advisor Program.
The Trust accounts separately for the assets, liabilities and operations of each Portfolio. Expenses directly attributable to each Portfolio are charged to that Portfolio's operations; expenses which are applicable to all Portfolios are allocated among them on a pro rata basis.
In the normal course of business, the Portfolio may enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations or that provide indemnification for certain liabilities. The Portfolio's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Portfolio that have not yet occurred. However, the Portfolio has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.
The Portfolio attempts to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share; the Portfolio has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation and dividend/distribution policies in an attempt to enable it to do so. As with any money market fund, there is no assurance, however, that the Portfolio will be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") is the exclusive reference of authoritative US generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative US GAAP for SEC registrants. The Portfolio's financial statements are prepared in accordance with US GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Valuation of investments—Investments are valued at amortized cost. Periodic review and monitoring of the valuation of the securities held by the Portfolio is performed in an effort to ensure that amortized cost approximates market value.
US GAAP requires disclosure regarding the various inputs that are used in determining the value of the Portfolio's investments. These inputs are summarized into the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs, including but not limited to, quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds and credit risks.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs inclusive of the Portfolio's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.
In accordance with the requirements of US GAAP, a fair value hierarchy has been included near the end of the Portfolio's Statement of net assets.
Repurchase agreements—The Portfolio may purchase securities or other obligations from a bank or securities dealer (or its affiliate), subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date (or upon demand) and price. The Portfolio maintains custody of the underlying obligations prior to their repurchase, either through its
17
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
regular custodian or through a special "tri-party" custodian or sub-custodian that maintains a separate account for both the Portfolio and its counterparty. The underlying collateral is valued daily in an effort to ensure that the value, including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Portfolio generally has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Repurchase agreements involving obligations other than US government securities (such as commercial paper, corporate bonds, equities and mortgage loans) may be subject to special risks and may not have the benefit of certain protections in the event of counterparty insolvency. Moreover, repurchase agreements secured by obligations that are not eligible for direct investment under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act or a Portfolio's investment strategies and limitations, may require the Portfolio to promptly dispose of such collateral if the seller or guarantor becomes insolvent. If the seller (or seller's guarantor, if any) becomes insolvent, the Portfolio may suffer delays, costs and possible losses in connection with the disposition or retention of the collateral. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. The Portfolio may participate in joint repurchase agreement transactions with other funds managed, advised or subadvised by UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM").
Under certain circumstances, the Portfolio may engage in a repurchase agreement transaction with a yield of zero in order to invest cash amounts remaining in its portfolio at the end of the day in order to avoid having the Portfolio potentially exposed to a fee for uninvested cash held in a business account at a bank.
Investment transactions and investment income—Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of investments.
18

Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
Dividends and distributions—Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from US GAAP. These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Concentration of risk—The ability of the issuers of debt securities held by the Portfolio to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments particular to a specific industry, country, state or region.
Investment management and administration fees and other transactions with affiliates—The Portfolio's Board of Trustees has approved an investment management and administration contract ("Management Contract") with UBS AM. In accordance with the Management Contract, the Portfolio pays UBS AM an investment management and administration fee, which is accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.35% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. At January 31, 2016, UBS AM owes $68,020 to the Portfolio, representing investment management and administration fees net of fee waivers/expense reimbursements.
UBS AM has contractually undertaken to waive a portion of the Portfolio's investment management and administration fees and/or reimburse a portion of the Portfolio's other expenses, when necessary, to maintain the total ordinary annual operating expenses (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs and interest expense, if any) through November 30, 2016 at a level not to exceed 0.60%. For the six months ended January 31, 2016, UBS AM waived $333,430 in investment management and administration fees. The Portfolio will make a payment to UBS AM for any previously waived fees/reimbursed expenses during the following three fiscal years to the extent that operating expenses are otherwise below the expense cap.
19
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
At January 31, 2016, the Portfolio had remaining fee waivers/expense reimbursements subject to repayment to UBS AM and respective dates of expiration as follows:
Fee waivers/expense reimbursements subject to repayment | | Expires July 31, 2016 | | Expires July 31, 2017 | | Expires July 31, 2018 | | Expires July 31, 2019 | |
$ | 2,793,148 | | | $ | 918,256 | | | $ | 855,490 | | | $ | 685,972 | | | $ | 333,430 | | |
UBS AM may voluntarily waive fees and/or reimburse expenses from time to time in the event that the Portfolio's yield falls below a certain level. Once started, there is no guarantee that UBS AM would continue to voluntarily waive an additional portion of its fees and/or reimburse expenses. This management fee waiver will not be subject to future recoupment. For the six months ended January 31, 2016, UBS AM voluntarily waived and/or reimbursed expenses of $267,020 for that purpose.
Under normal conditions, the Portfolio invests cash collateral from securities lending activities into an affiliated private money market fund, UBS Private Money Market Fund LLC ("Private Money Market"), which operates in compliance with most of the substantive provisions of Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. Private Money Market is managed by UBS AM and is currently offered as a cash management option to mutual funds and certain other accounts managed by the Portfolio's Investment Manager. UBS AM acts as managing member and receives a management fee from Private Money Market payable monthly in arrears at the annual rate of 0.10% of Private Money Market's average daily members' equity, minus the aggregate operating expenses of, and incurred by, Private Money Market during each such related month, not including investment expenses (including brokerage commissions, taxes, interest charges and other costs with respect to transactions in securities) and extraordinary expenses including litigation expenses, if any. UBS AM may, in its sole discretion, waive all or any portion of the management fee to which it may be entitled from time to time in order to maintain operating expenses at a certain level. Distributions received
20
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
from Private Money Market, net of fee rebates paid to borrowers, are reflected as securities lending income in the Statement of operations.
In August 2013, UBS AM made a voluntary cash payment of $2,430 to the Portfolio in order to address a differential between the number of shares outstanding and the Portfolio's net assets. The differential was attributable to historical, embedded capital losses that were experienced by the Portfolio over several years prior to the credit crisis of 2008. The voluntary payment to the Portfolio was not required to maintain a stable net asset value per share. The payment has removed a small, historical deviation that was reflected in the Portfolio's market price based and amortized cost net asset value per share.
Additional information regarding compensation to affiliate of a board member
Professor Meyer Feldberg serves as a senior advisor to Morgan Stanley, a financial services firm with which the Portfolio may conduct transactions, resulting in him being an interested trustee of the Portfolio. The Portfolio has been informed that Professor Feldberg's role at Morgan Stanley does not involve matters directly affecting any UBS funds. Portfolio transactions are executed through Morgan Stanley based on that firm's ability to provide best execution of the transactions. During the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio purchased and sold certain securities (e.g., fixed income securities) in principal trades with Morgan Stanley, having an aggregate value of $41,497,413. Morgan Stanley received compensation in connection with these trades, which may have been in the form of a "mark-up" or "mark-down" of the price of the securities, a fee from the issuer for maintaining a commercial paper program, or some other form of compensation. Although the precise amount of this compensation is not generally known by the Portfolio's investment manager, it is believed that under normal circumstances it represents a small portion of the total value of the transactions.

Transfer agency and related services fees
UBS Financial Services Inc. provides certain services to the Portfolio pursuant to a delegation of authority from BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. ("BNY Mellon"), the Portfolio's transfer agent, and is compensated for these services by BNY Mellon, not the Portfolio.
Effective July 1, 2013, UBS Financial Services Inc. voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the fee that it would otherwise have received from BNY Mellon with respect to PACE Government Money Market Investments so that BNY Mellon would correspondingly reduce the fees it would have charged to that Portfolio. Given that UBS AM has voluntarily undertaken to reduce its fees and/or reimburse expenses to keep the Portfolio's yield at or above a certain level, and that such amount exceeds the reduction in BNY Mellon's fees, the net effect of BNY Mellon's pass through of the waiver by UBS Financial Services Inc. is to partially reduce the amount that UBS AM would have otherwise voluntarily waived/reimbursed. For the six months ended January 31, 2016, the amount of the reduction in transfer agency and related services fees charged by BNY Mellon to the Portfolio was $135,366, which reflected an equal amount of compensation that was voluntarily waived by UBS Financial Services Inc. Voluntary fee waiver/expense reimbursement arrangements may end at any time.
For the six months ended January 31, 2016, UBS Financial Services Inc. received from BNY Mellon, not the Portfolio, $67,667 of the total transfer agency and related services fees paid by the Portfolio to BNY Mellon.
Securities lending
The Portfolio may lend securities up to 331/3% of its total assets to qualified broker-dealers or institutional investors. The loans are secured at all times by cash, US government securities or irrevocable letters of credit in an amount at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned, plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis and adjusted accordingly. The Portfolio will regain ownership of loaned
22
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
securities to exercise certain beneficial rights; however, the Portfolio may bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or even loss of rights in, the securities loaned should the borrower fail financially. The Portfolio receives compensation for lending its securities from interest or dividends earned on the cash, US government securities or irrevocable letters of credit held as collateral, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower plus reasonable administrative and custody fees. Cash collateral received is invested in Private Money Market, which is included in the Portfolio's Portfolio of Investments. State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as the Portfolio's lending agent. At January 31, 2016, the Portfolio did not have any securities on loan.
Other liabilities and components of net assets
At January 31, 2016, the Portfolio had the following liabilities outstanding:
Payable for shares of beneficial interest repurchased | | $ | 1,044,435 | | |
Payable to custodian | | | 3,625 | | |
Dividends payable to shareholders | | | 786 | | |
Other accrued expenses* | | | 277,349 | | |

Shares of beneficial interest
There is an unlimited amount of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest authorized. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest, at $1.00 per share, were as follows:
| | For the six months ended January 31, 2016 | | For the year ended July 31, 2015 | |

Net increase (decrease) in shares outstanding | | | 49,758,162 | | | | (43,523,872 | ) | |
Federal tax status
The Portfolio intends to distribute substantially all of its income and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, net realized capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, the Portfolio intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax.
The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders by the Portfolio during the six months ended January 31, 2016 and the fiscal year ended July 31, 2015 was ordinary income.
The components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax basis for the current fiscal year will be determined after the Portfolio's fiscal year ending July 31, 2016.
Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (The "Act"), net capital losses recognized by the Portfolio after December 22, 2010, may be carried forward indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term losses. The Act requires that post-enactment net capital losses be used before pre-enactment net capital losses. At July 31, 2015, the Portfolio has no capital loss carryforwards.
24
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
ASC 740-10 "Income Taxes—Overall" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken. The Portfolio has analyzed and concluded as of January 31, 2016, that there are no significant uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition in the financial statements. The Portfolio recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the six months ended January 31, 2016, the Portfolio did not incur any interest or penalties.
Each of the tax years in the four year period ended July 31, 2015, remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.
Regulatory Developments
On July 23, 2014, the SEC amended certain regulations that govern money market funds registered under the 1940 Act. The most significant changes will not become mandatory until October 2016. The most significant change is a requirement that institutional prime and institutional municipal money market funds move to a floating net asset value and change an accounting methodology that had been used for decades. In addition, all prime and municipal money market funds will be subject to potential redemption fees/gates under limited circumstances prescribed in the new regulations. Government, Treasury, retail prime and retail municipal money market funds will continue to be permitted to transact at a stable $1.00 share price. UBS AM is currently evaluating the potential impact of these changes on PACE Government Money Market Investments and expects to update shareholders further in advance of the October 2016 deadline.
