Dear PACE Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide you with the annual 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 12 months ended July 31, 2019 (the "reporting period"). Please note that the opinions of the subadvisors do not necessarily represent those of UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc.
Headwinds for global growth
As the reporting period began, the US economy reached a new record for the longest expansion on record, exceeding the previous mark of 120 months.1 However, trade conflicts, less robust manufacturing activity and several other factors have led to moderating global growth. Looking back, the US Commerce Department reported that gross domestic product ("GDP") grew at 3.4% and 2.2% seasonally adjusted annualized rates during the third and fourth quarters of 2018, respectively. GDP growth then bounced back to 3.1% during the first quarter of 2019. Finally, the US Commerce Department's initial estimate for second quarter GDP growth in the US was 2.1%.
Headwinds facing the economy were acknowledged by the US Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed"). After raising interest rates four times in 2018, in July 2019 the Fed started to reverse course, saying it would pause from additional rate hikes as it monitored incoming economic data. At its meeting that concluded on March 20, 2019, most Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC")2 members indicated that they did not feel additional rate hikes would be needed in 2019. After its June 2019 meeting, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said, "The case for somewhat more accommodative policy has strengthened" and the market anticipated one or two rate cuts by the end of the year. Finally, at its meeting in July 2019, the Fed lowered its target rate from a range between 2.25% and 2.50% to a range between 2.00% and 2.25%. This marked the first rate cut since 2008.
From a global perspective, in its July 2019 World Economic Outlook Update, the International Monetary Fund ("IMF") said, "Global growth remains subdued. Since the April World Economic Outlook (WEO) report, the United States further increased tariffs on certain Chinese imports and China retaliated by raising tariffs on a subset of US imports. Additional escalation was averted following the June G20 summit. Global technology supply chains were threatened by the prospect of US sanctions, Brexit-related uncertainty continued, and rising geopolitical tensions roiled energy prices...Risks to the forecast are mainly to the downside. They include further trade and technology tensions that dent sentiment and slow investment; a protracted increase in risk aversion that exposes the financial vulnerabilities continuing to accumulate after years of low interest rates; and mounting disinflationary pressures that increase debt service difficulties, constrain the monetary policy space to counter downturns, and make adverse shocks more persistent than normal." From a regional perspective, the IMF projects 2019 growth in the eurozone will be 1.3%, versus 1.9% in 2018. Japan's economy is expected to expand 0.9% in 2019, compared to 0.8% in 2018. Elsewhere, the IMF projects that overall growth in emerging market countries will decelerate to 4.1% in 2019, versus 4.5% in 2018.
Global equities generate mixed results
The global equity market generated mixed results during the reporting period. US equities experienced several setbacks, but they proved to be only temporary in nature, as the market reached several new all-time record highs. Supporting the market were corporate profits that often exceeded expectations, hopes for a resolution between the US and China trade war, and the Fed lowering interest rates to support the economy. All told, the S&P 500 Index3 gained 7.99% during the 12 months ended July 31, 2019. Returns were weaker outside the US, as slower growth,

political issues and concerns over trade disputes negatively impacted investor sentiment. International developed equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index (net),4 returned -2.60% during the reporting period, while emerging markets equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net),5 fell 2.18%.
The fixed income market produces solid results
The global fixed income market posted solid results during the reporting period. In the US, both short- and long-term Treasury yields declined (bond yields and prices move in the opposite direction). Periods of investor risk aversion, the Fed's monetary policy reversal and modest inflation helped to push yields lower. For the 12 month reporting period as a whole, the yield on the US 10-year Treasury fell from 2.96% to 2.02%. Government bond yields outside the US also generally moved lower, as the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan and the Bank of

England largely maintained their highly accommodative monetary policies. The overall US bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Index,6 returned 8.08% for the 12 months ended July 31, 2019. Returns of riskier fixed income securities were also positive. High yield bonds, as measured by the ICE BofAML US High Yield Cash Pay Constrained Index,7 returned 6.95% during the reporting period. Elsewhere, emerging markets debt, as measured by the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (EMBI Global),8 gained 10.33%.

Performance
The seven-day current yield for the Fund as of July 31, 2019 was 1.74% (after fee waivers/expense reimbursements).1 For more information on the Fund's performance, refer to "Yields and characteristics at a glance" on page 7. 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 a detailed commentary on the market environment in general during the period, please refer to page 3.
Advisor's comments
The Federal Reserve Board (Fed) initially continued to normalize monetary policy during the reporting period. For example, the Fed raised rates at its meetings in September and December 2018, for a total of four rate hikes in 2018. With its December 2018 increase, the federal funds rate moved to a range between 2.25% and 2.50%. In addition, the Fed continued reducing its balance sheet. However, at its meeting in January 2019, the Fed announced that it would take a less aggressive stance on future rate hikes. Then, as expected, the Fed lowered rates at its meeting in July 2019—the first cut since 2008. While the yields on a wide range of short-term investments moved higher over the period, yields still remain low by historical comparison. As a result, the Portfolio's yield remained low during the reporting period.
We tactically adjusted the Portfolio's weighted average maturity ("WAM") throughout the 12-month review period. When the reporting period began, the Portfolio had a WAM of 22 days. This was increased to 34 days at the end of the reporting period.
A number of adjustments were made to the Portfolio's sector and issuer positioning during the 12-month period. We modestly reduced the Portfolio's exposure to US government and agency obligations and slightly pared its allocation to repurchase agreements. (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 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 6.53% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg Barclays US Mortgage-Backed Securities Index (the "benchmark") returned 6.76%, and the Lipper US Mortgage Funds category posted a median return of 6.40%. (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 3.
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 generated a positive return and outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Overall, US interest rate strategies were modestly positive for performance. Near-benchmark US duration exposure was neutral for performance. (Duration measures a portfolio's sensitivity to interest rate changes.) Yield curve positioning, including a focus on the intermediate portion of the yield curve, modestly contributed to results, as intermediate yields outperformed short- and long-end yields during the period.
Agency mortgage-backed security (MBS) strategies contributed to performance. An average overweight to agency MBS detracted from performance as the sector lagged like-duration Treasuries. However, this was more than offset by relative value positioning within the sector, which added to performance. Exposure to select non-agency mortgages contributed to results, as these securities remained well-supported by the improving US housing market. Non-mortgage securitized debt exposure, including holdings of collateralized loan obligations, was positive for returns.
Overall, derivative usage was neutral to modestly positive for performance during the period. The use of interest rate swaps to short- and long-end US swap rates detracted from returns, as swap rates outperformed Treasury rates. The Fund used interest rate swaps and constant maturity swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures, as well as to substitute for physical securities. The Portfolio benefited from the income generated from selling mortgage pool options as a way to manage interest rate and volatility risk within the sector. Additionally, options on swaps were primarily used to manage interest rate exposure and volatility. The purchase of options on swaps detracted from performance due to premium payments made. Total return swaps, used to replicate broad exposure to interest only agency mortgages, while limiting idiosyncratic risk of owning individual bonds, was neutral for performance.
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 Performance is discussed 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.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.09% and 0.97%; Class Y—1.01% and 0.72%; and Class P—0.93% 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 waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2019 (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 Y—0.72%; and Class P—0.72%. 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 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 3.75%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 The Bloomberg Barclays US Mortgage-Backed Securities Index is an unmanaged index which primarily covers the mortgage-backed passthrough 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. 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 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 7.60% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index (the "benchmark") returned 8.08%. Over the same period, the Lipper Core Bond Funds category posted a median return of 7.72%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 34. Please note that the returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder could 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 3.
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 positioning and security selection within investment-grade corporate bonds and an allocation to high-yield corporate bonds were the primary contributors to performance. Overweight positioning in credit was additive for returns, notably in the first quarter of 2019, as a more dovish Federal Reserve Board (Fed) supported risk assets. The Portfolio's security selection of agency mortgages also contributed to performance.
On the downside, the Portfolio's duration and yield curve positioning detracted from returns. In particular, having a duration that was shorter than the benchmark for the majority of 2019 hurt performance, as rates declined due to a more dovish Fed, weaker global data and geopolitical tensions. Allocations to Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) and cash, as well as ultra-short-term securities were also headwinds for returns. TIPS detracted from returns, most notably in the second quarter of 2019, as geopolitical tensions and weaker energy prices weighed on inflation expectations. As of the end of the reporting period, the Portfolio had allocations to TIPS and high-yield corporate bonds, as well as overweight positions in securitized products. The Portfolio held a short duration bias and underweights to agency mortgages and investment-grade corporate bonds.
Derivatives were primarily used to adjust the Portfolio's duration and curve exposure, as well as to hedge risk. We believe derivatives are generally beneficial to performance, as they help us manage the portfolio more efficiently. Over the period the following kinds of derivatives were the most commonly used. Interest rate swaps are the most common type of swaps and were useful in adding duration or subtracting it at particular points on the yield curve. Credit default swaps were used to provide protection against a particular issuer or basket of issuers defaulting, or as a way to express a negative or positive view on an issuer's or group of issuers' credit strength. Options on interest

Subadvisor's comments – concluded
rate swaps (swaptions) were used to hedge convexity, as well as to take a view on volatility and interest rates. Options on futures were most often used to take a view on volatility and/or interest rates. Foreign exchange options were used to give us the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell a currency at a specified price for a specified period of time. Foreign exchange forwards were typically used to hedge non-US dollar currency risk back to the US dollar, as well as to implement active currency positions. Futures are useful in managing exposure to interest rates by adding duration or subtracting it from a portfolio at particular points on the yield curve. Derivatives are used in conjunction with other existing positions to create our desired positioning, so performance attribution cannot be isolated. Derivative positions benefited the portfolio by allowing it to more precisely manage duration and yield curve risk and to hedge currency risk from non-dollar bonds.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2018 prospectuses, supplemented from time to time, were as follows: Class A—1.00% and 0.91%; Class Y—0.95% and 0.66%; and Class P—0.81% and 0.66%. 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, 2019 (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— 0.91%; Class Y—0.66%; and Class P—0.66%. "Management fee waiver/expense reimbursements" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. 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 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 3.75%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 The Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index is a broad-based flagship benchmark that measures the investment grade, US dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market. The index includes Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, MBS (agency fixedrate and hybrid ARM pass-throughs), ABS and CMBS (agency and non-agency). Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.

Performance
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 8.04% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg Barclays US Government/Credit Index (the "benchmark") returned 8.60% and the Lipper Core Plus Bond Funds category posted a median return of 7.86%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 72. 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 3.
Advisor's comments2
The Fund generated a positive return and outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. An average overweight to US duration added to performance as yields fell over the period. (Duration measures a portfolio's sensitivity to interest rate changes.) Yield curve positioning, including a focus on the intermediate portion of the yield curve contributed to results, as intermediate yields fell the most during the period. Non-US developed market interest rate strategies detracted from performance, including an overall short position to Japanese, Australian and UK interest rates, as yields in these regions fell during the period.
Overall spread sector strategies added to performance. An underweight to investment-grade corporate spread duration and an allocation to US Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) detracted from relative results. However, this was more than offset by sector and security selection, including a focus on financial names. An allocation to high-yield corporate bonds was beneficial, as the sector outperformed like-duration Treasuries. Exposure to agency mortgage-backed securities detracted from returns as the sector underperformed like-duration Treasuries. However, an allocation to non-agency mortgage-backed securities contributed to returns, as did an allocation to emerging market debt.
Lastly, overall currency strategies contributed to performance. Tactical exposure to higher carry (yielding) emerging markets currencies, including the Turkish lira and Mexican peso, added to performance.
Overall, derivative usage was neutral during the period. Our short exposure to US and Japanese swap rates detracted from results, as swap rates outperformed Treasury and Japanese government bond rates. We used interest rate swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures, as well as to substitute for physical securities. Credit default swaps were used to manage credit
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 Performance is discussed 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.

Advisor's comments – concluded
exposure in lieu of the direct buying or selling of physical securities. In particular, the use of credit default swaps to reduce exposure to credit spreads detracted from returns, as synthetic credit spreads outperformed cash credit spreads. Options and options on interest rate and credit default swaps were modestly used during the period to manage interest rate and credit exposure and the overall volatility of the portfolio. The use of options and swaptions was neutral for performance. Overall use of currency forwards and currency options was positive for performance, as these securities generated positive income. Currency options and forwards were used to gain exposure to foreign currency markets and generate income in expected currency scenarios. The use of government futures to adjust interest rate exposures and replicate government bond positions added to performance.

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, 2018 prospectuses, supplemented from time to time, were as follows: Class A—1.05% and 1.01%; Class Y—0.93% and 0.76%; and Class P—0.84% and 0.76%. 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, 2019 (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 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 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 3.75%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.

Performance
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 7.18% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg Barclays US Municipal 3-15 Year Blend Index (the "benchmark") returned 7.03%, and the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds category posted a median return of 6.33%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 104. 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 3.
Subadvisor's comments2
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. The primary drivers of our performance versus the benchmark were contributions from duration and yield curve positioning, coupled with favorable results due to security selection.
From a sector standpoint, an overweight to high-yielding revenue bonds, such as broker-backed prepaid gas and hospital issues, supported relative results, as prices moved higher due to strong investor demand. A strategic underweight to lagging local general obligation (GO) and pre-refunded bonds was also additive for relative results, although less emphasis on strong-performing state GO bonds was a mitigating factor. Overweight positioning to essential service power, along with underperforming tobacco revenue bonds, detracted from returns. Security selection was additive for performance during the reporting period, with strong relative results from Alleghany PA Hospital, the state of Connecticut's general obligation bonds, the state of New Jersey's appropriation bonds and Wisconsin health issues all generating strong relative results. Weaker performance came from our tobacco securitization, Cook County Illinois sales tax and Washington state GO credits.
Overall, credit fundamentals were solid for state and local governments during the period. State fund balances have been reinforced to better protect against an economic downturn. According to a recent Moody's Investor Service report, all but two states are adequately prepared to weather a modest recession without significant negative credit implications. Our positioning continues to reflect a bias away from municipalities challenged by pension funding requirements despite a marginally stronger performance profile. We maintained an overweight to A-rated debt, which outperformed higher-quality issues, although the impact was mitigated by an underweight to BBB-rated bonds that were also top performers, particularly Illinois state GO bonds, for which we had no exposure.
A modestly long duration posture contributed to performance, as interest rates rallied during the reporting period. Yields for AAA-rated bonds at the two- and five-year spots on the yield curve fell 50 basis points and 80 basis
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 Performance is discussed 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.

points, respectively, while yields declined 95 basis points in the 10-year portion of the curve. The shape of the high-grade yield curve flattened 45 basis points from to 2 to 10 years (ending the reporting period at 43 basis points), which drove a favorable impact from our relative yield curve exposure versus the benchmark, notably being overweight the 10- to 15-year maturity range.

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.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—0.91% and 0.82%; Class Y—0.71% and 0.57%; and Class P—0.67% and 0.57%. 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, 2019 (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—0.82%; Class Y—0.57%; and Class P—0.57%. 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 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 2.25%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 The Bloomberg Barclays US Municipal 3-15 Year Blend Index is an unmanaged index for the tax-exempt bond market. The Index includes investment-grade municipal bonds with an effective maturity between 2 and 17 years that have at least one year to maturity. Sectors include general obligation, revenue, insured and pre-refunded bonds. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
Prior to August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 4.75% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Index (the "benchmark") returned 5.73%, the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate ex-USD 50% Hedged Index returned 6.32%, and the Lipper Global Income Funds median returned 6.01%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 115. 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 3.
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 modestly outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. This was driven by our overweight in risk assets and duration positioning. In particular, an overweight allocation to high-yield corporate bonds, along with an allocation to investment-grade corporate bonds and security selection within the space, were the main contributors to performance. Conversely, our foreign exchange overlay detracted from performance.
Our high-yield corporate bond allocation was beneficial in 2019, as spreads compressed, reversing their direction from the end of 2018. This turnaround was due to a combination of factors, including rising oil prices, the Federal Reserve Board's (Fed's) dovish pivot and improving risk sentiment. Mindful of the rally, we trimmed our exposure in US and European high-yield, taking partial profits. The investment-grade corporate bond allocation contributed to returns due to spread compression in 2019 on the back of improving risk sentiment and a better-than-expected earnings season. While we had a neutral position versus the benchmark due to deteriorating fundamentals, we maintained a sector overweight to transportation and consumer non-cyclicals, while underweighting consumer cyclicals.
The Portfolio's overweight allocation in covered bonds, which we rotated into mid last year by reducing exposure to investment-grade corporates, contributed over the period. Furthermore, our positioning in US duration contributed to performance, as we held a short position last year. This was driven by our view that strong growth would encourage the Fed to continue with rate hikes, and the market moved closer towards reflecting our view that the Fed would hike four times in 2018. This positioning came under pressure in the fourth quarter of 2018, as the risk-off environment provided support for US Treasuries. We went overweight in US duration by adding duration in the

Subadvisor's comments – concluded
10-year and 30-year parts of the yield curve starting in December 2018. This was additive for results due to the rally in Treasuries, driven by the Fed's dovish pivot.
Our foreign exchange overlay detracted from returns, with the bulk of the losses concentrated in the fourth quarter of 2018. During this time, both our quantitative model and qualitative inputs hurt performance. The main themes behind underperformance in the fourth quarter were long beta (risk) positions in oil and equities. The unexpected 35% decline in oil prices, the largest quarterly decline since the financial crisis, hurt our long positions in the Norwegian krone and Canadian dollar. Likewise, with the sharp decline in risk assets in December 2018 coming on the back of trade tensions, Fed policy decisions and the mid-term elections leading to the prospect of less US fiscal stimulus, hurt our long positioning in US dollar versus Japanese yen, as the yen rallied on a flight to safety. We maintained these themes through the selloff, which saw a rebound in foreign exchange performance in the first quarter of 2019.
We utilized derivatives over the period for efficient Portfolio management purposes. The main types of financial derivative contracts we use are interest rate futures and foreign exchange currency forwards contracts. This allows us to implement our strategy, as well as to hedge or take currency risk. For example, we used interest rate futures to take short positions in the US and Germany in the front end of the yield curve. Overall, the use of derivatives was beneficial to our management process.

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 annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2018 prospectuses, supplemented from time to time, were as follows: Class A—1.27% and 1.03%; Class Y—1.15% and 0.87%; and Class P—1.09% and 0.84%. 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, 2019 (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—1.03%; Class Y—0.87%; and Class P—0.84%. "Management fee waiver/expense reimbursements" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. 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 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 3.75%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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."
3 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.

Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
5 The Bloomberg 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.

Performance
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 4.80% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the ICE BofAML Global High Yield Index (hedged in USD) (the "benchmark") returned 7.89%. The Lipper Global High Yield Funds category posted a median return of 5.46% and the Portfolio's previous Lipper category, the Lipper High Yield Funds category returned 5.93%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 132. 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 3.
Special note: Effective April 2019, the Portfolio's Lipper category changed from the High Yield Funds category to the Global High Yield Funds category.
Subadvisor's comments2
The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. The high-yield market rebounded strongly during the first half of 2019. The market was supported by an outlook for steady growth, the expectation of a trade deal between the US and China, stable oil prices, and a dovish turn from both the Federal Reserve Board and the European Central Bank.
Positive security selection in the utility and transportation sectors contributed the most to performance during the period. The Portfolio's performance was hurt by overweights and security selection in the energy and basic industry sectors. From a ratings perspective, an overweight and negative security selection in B-rated issuers was the biggest detractor to performance. An underweight in BB-rated issuers, coupled with an overweight in CCC-rated issuers further detracted from results, as did security selection in both ratings segments.
Currency forwards were used during the reporting period to hedge the currency exposure of the Portfolio into US dollars. The use of currency forwards increased the Portfolio's performance.

Total return
Investment process:
The subadvisor utilizes a "total return" strategy driven
by credit research and a team effort to generate alpha in
high yield.
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 Performance is discussed 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.

Mutual funds are sold by prospectus only. You should read it carefully and consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses and other important information contained in the prospectus before investing.

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, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.22% and 1.06%; Class Y—0.85% and 0.85%; and Class P—1.07% and 0.91%. 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, 2019 (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 Y—0.88%; and Class P—0.91%. 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 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 3.75%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 The ICE BofAML Global High Yield Index (hedged in USD) is an unmanaged index which covers US dollar, Canadian dollar, British pound and Euro denominated below investment-grade corporate debt publicly issued in the major domestic or eurobond markets. Securities must have at least 18 months before final maturity at the time of issuance and have at least one year remaining to final maturity. Callable perpetuals, original issue zero-coupon bonds, eurodollar bonds and 144A securities (with and without registration rights), as well as pay-in-kind securitiies, are included in the index. Contingent capital securities ("cocos") are excluded from the index, but capital securities where conversion can be mandated by a regulatory authority but with no specific trigger are included. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
5 On April 2019, Lipper changed the peer group classification for PACE High Yield Investments from the High Yield Funds category to the Global High Yield Funds category.
Prior to August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

The following graph depicts the performance of PACE High Yield Investments Class P shares versus the ICE BofAML Global High Yield Index (Hedged in USD) over the 10 years ended July 31, 2019. Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance. The performance of the other classes will vary based upon the different class specific expenses and sales charges. The performance provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Share price and returns will vary with market conditions; investors may realize a gain or loss upon redemption. It is important to note that PACE High Yield Investments is a professionally managed portfolio while the Index is not available for investment and is unmanaged.

Performance
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 1.28% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 1000 Value Index (the "benchmark") returned 5.20%, and the Lipper Multi-Cap Value Funds category posted a median return of 0.21%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 162. 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 3.
Advisors' comments2
The portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection was the primary detractor, particularly within the Health Care and Information Technology sectors, which offset positive stock selection within the Industrials sector. The managers generally found more attractive valuation opportunities within more cyclical sectors which resulted in sector allocation also being a headwind. The modest overweight to energy, the worst performing sector, and underweight to Utilities, one of the best performing sectors detracted from relative performance and offset positive contribution from the overweight to Communication Services.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting 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 Performance is discussed 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.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.46% and 1.46%; Class Y—1.21% and 1.21%; and Class P—1.23% and 1.23%. 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, 2019 (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—1.14%; Class Y—0.89%; and Class P—0.89%. "Management fee waiver/expense reimbursements" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. 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 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 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. 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 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares gained 10.34% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the "benchmark") returned 10.82%, and the Lipper Large-Cap Growth Funds category posted a median return of 9.71%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 175. 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 3.
Advisors' comments2
The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection across several sectors was weak but selection was somewhat offset by allocation across sectors. Stock selection in the Financials and Communication Services sectors were the largest drivers of underperformance versus the benchmark. The Fund exhibited particularly strong stock selection in Information Technology, however, which helped relative performance. Furthermore, the Fund's underweight to Health Care and overweight to the Real Estate sector was a tailwind relative to the benchmark.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting 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 Performance is discussed 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.

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, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.14% and 1.13%; Class Y—0.88% and 0.88%; and Class P—0.90% and 0.88%. 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, 2019 (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—1.13%; Class Y—0.88%; and Class P—0.88%. "Management fee waiver/expense reimbursements" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. 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 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments
Performance
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -4.49% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 2500 Value Index (the "benchmark") returned -3.21%, and the Lipper Small-Cap Value Funds category posted a median return of -8.92%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 183. 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 3.
Advisors' comments2
The portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. The managers generally found more attractive valuation opportunities within more cyclical sectors causing sector allocation to be a headwind. The modest overweight to energy, the worst performing sector in the benchmark, and underweight to both REITS and Utilities, two of the better performing sectors detracted from relative performance and offset positive contribution from the overweight to Information Technology. Stock selection was positive overall and across most sectors, but negatively impacted by weaker stock selection within the more cyclical Consumer Discretionary and Energy sectors.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting 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 Performance is discussed 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

mental research to identify value companies with strong potential for positive earnings revisions.
• A strategy that employs a fundamental, bottom-up, research-driven investment style and follows a disciplined investment process to identify high-quality companies.
• A "deep value" strategy that seeks long-term total investment return through capital appreciation, generally investing in common stocks of US companies that are considered to be undervalued.
Mutual funds are sold by prospectus only. You should read it carefully and consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses and other important information contained in the prospectus before investing. Prospectuses for most of our funds can be obtained from your financial advisor, by calling UBS Funds at 800-647 1568 or by visiting our Website at www.ubs.com/am-us.
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 mid-cap 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, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.21% and 1.21%; Class Y—0.89% and 0.89%; and Class P—1.07% and 1.04%. 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, 2019 (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—1.29%; Class Y—1.04%; and Class P—1.04%. "Management fee waiver/expense reimbursements" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. 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 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

The following graph depicts the performance of PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments Class P shares versus the Russell 2500 Value Index over the 10 years ended July 31, 2019. Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance. The performance of the other classes will vary based upon the different class specific expenses and sales charges. The performance provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Share price and returns will vary with market conditions; investors may realize a gain or loss upon redemption.

Performance
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 4.83% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 2500 Growth Index (the "benchmark") returned 5.81%, and the Lipper Small-Cap Growth Funds category posted a median return of 5.83%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 191. 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 3.
Advisors' comments2
The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark over the reporting period. Stock selection was weak and only partially offset by sector allocation. The Information Technology and Financials sectors were the weakest performing areas of the portfolio, from a benchmark relative perspective, but the Fund's relative overweight to Information Technology was a positive. Additionally, the Fund's underweight to Energy and Materials and stock selection within Consumer Discretionary helped to partially offset the aforementioned negative stock selection, which was centered in Information Technology.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting 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 Performance is discussed 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.

Investment process
(concluded)
• A strategy in which the subadvisor seeks to identify and exploit the perception gap that exits between a company's business strength and the market's expectation of that strength.

Mutual funds are sold by prospectus only. You should read it carefully and consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses and other important information contained in the prospectus before investing.

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 mid-cap 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, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.20% and 1.20%; Class Y—0.70% and 0.70%; and Class P—1.06% and 1.06%. 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, 2019 (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—1.33%; Class Y—1.08%; and Class P—1.08%. "Management fee waiver/expense reimbursements" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. 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 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. 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 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -4.27% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the MSCI EAFE Index (net) (the "benchmark") returned -2.60% and the Lipper International Multi-Cap Growth Funds category had a median return of -2.72%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 202. 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 3.
Advisors' comments2
The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. The underperformance was largely driven by stock selection from a country perspective, particularly United Kingdom equities. Additionally, stock selection in Energy and Industrials were detractors. The Fund's underweight positioning in Consumer Staples also detracted from relative performance, as did an underweight to Australia over the reporting period. Strong stock selection in Financials and Germany helped to partially offset weaker performance elsewhere.
Derivatives were not used during the review 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 Performance is discussed 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:
Capital appreciation
Investment process:
The main strategies of the subadvisors include:
• A strategy that invests in durable large-cap franchises that can grow excess returns on capital well into the future and trade at a significant discount to the subadvisor's estimate of the true worth of these operations.

PACE International Equity Investments
Investment process
(concluded)
• A "long/short" or "130/30" equity strategy in which the subadvisor will buy securities "long" that it believes will outperform the market or decrease portfolio risk, sells securities "short" that it believes will underperform the market and may invest the proceeds from those sales in additional securities.
• A strategy that involves achieving consistent risk adjusted excess returns by managing a concentrated portfolio of quality, growth companies generally headquartered outside of the United States.
Mutual funds are sold by prospectus only. You should read it carefully and consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses and other important information contained in the prospectus before investing. Prospectuses for most of our funds can be obtained from your financial advisor, by calling UBS Funds at 800-647 1568 or by visiting our Website at www.ubs.com/am-us.
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, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.86% and 1.86%; Class Y—1.59% and 1.59%; and Class P—1.59% and 1.59%. 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, 2019 (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—1.35%; Class Y—1.10%; and Class P—1.10%. "Management fee waiver/expense reimbursements" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. 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 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 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

Illustration of an assumed investment of $10,000 in Class P shares of the Portfolio (unaudited)
The following graph depicts the performance of PACE International Equity Investments Class P shares versus the MSCI EAFE Index (net) over the 10 years ended July 31, 2019. Class P shares held through advisory programs may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance. The performance of the other classes will vary based upon the different class specific expenses and sales charges. The performance provided does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Share price and returns will vary with market conditions; investors may realize a gain or loss upon redemption. It is important to note that PACE International Equity Investments is a professionally managed portfolio while the Index is not available for investment and is unmanaged.

PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments
Performance
For the 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -2.70% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net) (the "benchmark") returned -2.18%, and the Lipper Emerging Markets Funds category posted a median return of -2.59%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 216. 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 3.
Advisor's comments2
The portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Sector allocation was a detractor to relative performance, particularly the underweight to energy and modest overweight to Health Care, the latter being the worst performing sector in the benchmark. Stocks selection was generally positive across most sectors but detractors included weak stock selection within the REITS and Utilities sectors. From a country perspective, stock selection within India was the most significant detractor, which offset positive contribution from positioning within Korea and China.
Derivatives were not used during the reporting 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 Performance is discussed 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.

Mutual funds are sold by prospectus only. You should read it carefully and consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses and other important information contained in the prospectus before investing. Prospectuses for most of our funds can be obtained from your financial advisor, by calling UBS Funds at 800-647 1568 or by visiting our Website at www.ubs.com/am-us.
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, 2018 prospectuses, supplemented from time to time, were as follows: Class A—1.72% and 1.70%; Class Y—1.45% and 1.45%; and Class P—1.50% and 1.45%. 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, 2019 (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—1.70%; Class Y—1.45%; and Class P—1.45%. 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 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 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
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 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. 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 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 4.92% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Index (the "benchmark") returned 8.13%, while the Lipper Global Real Estate Funds category posted a median return of 8.00%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 226. 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 3.
Subadvisor's comments2
The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. stock selection and an overweight exposure to the office sector was the largest detractor from returns. Stock selection within the diversified sector was also a headwind for relative performance, largely driven by an overweight in the UK. Stock selection and underweight exposure to the industrial sector also detracted from performance. Conversely, by sector, retail was the leading contributor to results. Limited exposure to the sector was beneficial, as stocks in the group continued to exhibit weakness. A combination of positive stock selection and overweight exposure to the health care sector also contributed to returns, as did positive stock selection within the residential sector.
By region, Hong Kong/China (stock selection) and the UK (overweight exposure) were leading detractors from performance. In contrast, Continental Europe (underweight exposure and stock selection) and Australia/New Zealand (stock selection) were leading contributors to relative returns.
By security, an overweight to Land Securities Group PLC (diversified, UK) was the leading detractor from performance. The stock lagged amid weakness related to Brexit uncertainty. Non-benchmark holding SOHO China Ltd. (office, China) was also a headwind for relative returns. An overweight exposure to RLJ Lodging Trust (hotel, US) detracted as well. Conversely, not owning Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield (retail, France) was the most additive for relative results, as the issues that have plagued US retail real estate now appears to be spreading to Europe. Overweights to Simon Property Group, Inc. (retail, US) and Dexus (diversified, Australia) were also leading contributors over the period.
The Portfolio did not use/utilize derivatives during the reporting 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 Performance is discussed 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.

Mutual funds are sold by prospectus only. You should read it carefully and consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses and other important information contained in the prospectus before investing. Prospectuses for most of our funds can be obtained from your financial advisor, by calling UBS Funds at 800-647 1568 or by visiting our Website at www.ubs.com/am-us.
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.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the November 28, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—1.50% and 1.45%; and Class P—1.53% and 1.20%. 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, 2019 (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%; 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 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 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 The FTSE EPRA Nareit Developed Index is designed to measure the stock performance of companies engaged in certain real estate activities of the North American, UK, 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. 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 12 months ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 0.90% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the FTSE Three-Month US Treasury Bill Index (the "benchmark") returned 2.33%, the Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Index returned 5.73%, the MSCI World Index (net) returned 3.62%, the HFRI Fund of Funds Composite Index (net) returned 1.66%, and the Lipper Alternative Multi-Strategy Funds category posted a median return of 1.80%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 235. 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 3.
Advisor's comments2,3
The Fund outperformed the benchmark during the reporting period. The primary drivers of return were allocations to fundamental long/short, market neutral equity and global macro strategies. The long/short equity allocations benefited from having modestly positive beta to the equity markets which generally produced positive returns during the reporting period, despite a sharp correction in the fourth quarter of 2018. The allocations also benefited from positive stock selection on the long side in stocks such as Abbott Laboratories and Airbus, while short positions generally detracted from performance. The market neutral allocation generated particularly strong returns during the reporting period. This was driven by contributions from industrials, such as a long position in Air Canada, and positioning in information technology. Shorts were also additive such as a significant short position in AltaGas stock (utilities), whose value declined by half over the investment horizon. This was partially offset by positioning in the energy sector, despite strong underlying fundamentals, and positioning in the forestry sector, as lumber prices declined and growth in US housing did not materialize. Global macro strategies benefited the most from interest rate strategies, led by European duration and US real yields. The dovish stance from central banks due to concerns about growth and inflation continued to provide a favorable backdrop for the fixed income market. Credit was also a strong contributor to performance. Credit in general was supported by expectations for further quantitative easing (QE) measures and interest rate cuts. Currency strategies were also additive for global macro results. The Korean won was negatively
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 Performance is discussed 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.

Advisor's comments – concluded
impacted by US-China trade tensions, driving contributions from a US dollar and Indian rupee versus Korean won position. The Japanese yen, a perceived safe haven currency, thrived in the risk-off markets, driving contributions from a Japanese yen versus Australian dollar position. Equity positions, both directional and relative value, detracted from returns.
While not a major driver of returns, allocations to currency strategies were also additive over the reporting period. Positions in the Norwegian krone and Japanese yen were particularly additive for results. A persistent short position in the Norwegian krone was driven by weakness in the price of oil which had reduced the attractiveness of Norwegian equities as well as trade receipts. The Norwegian krone plunged alongside the energy complex in November 2018, benefiting performance. Positioning in the Japanese yen benefited from a well-timed rotation from short to long positioning at the end of November 2018 since demand for safe-havens increased significantly in December 2018 as a result of the sharp market correction in the fourth quarter of 2018. This was partially offset by a long position in the New Zealand dollar which struggled due to a somewhat-surprising rate cut in mid-April followed by a backslide in US-China trade negotiations which prompted a selloff in risk currencies.
The primary detractors from return were allocations to quantitative strategies such as a low volatility long/short equity strategy, a style premia strategy and managed futures. Both the equity strategy and the style premia strategy were negatively impacted by the underperformance of the value style factor which underperformed growth and momentum during the reporting period. This impacted stock selection in the equity strategy which was particularly weak in the US, Japan and Switzerland. In general, the low beta tilt positively impacted performance during the period, as low beta securities outperformed their high beta counterparts. (Beta is a measure of volatility or risk relative to the market as a whole.)
There is significant use of derivatives in the Fund, including but not limited to options, futures, forwards, and swaps. Derivative use is relied upon for risk management and efficient implementation purposes.

Investment process
The main strategies of the subadvisors include:
• An "opportunistic strategy" in which UBS AM allocates a portion of the fund's assets primarily to unaffiliated actively- and passively-managed pooled investment vehicles that UBS AM believes are suitable for return generation, risk management or both.
• A "long/short global equity" strategy in which the subadvisor buys securities "long" that the subadvisor believes will out-perform the market, and sells securities "short" that the subadvisor believes will underperform the market.
• A "currency strategy" that seeks to produce absolute return from investing in currency markets.
• A "global multi-asset strategy" that involves achieving a total return by delivering a diversified global portfolio that makes use of multiple strategies across various asset classes.
• A "managed futures strategy" in which the subadvisor takes both long and short positions in a portfolio of futures contracts, futures related instruments, forward contracts and swaps across different asset classes.
• A "liquid alternative long/short equity strategy" in which the subadvisor generally utilizes long positions that the subadvisor believes are attractively-valued, growth-oriented companies of mid to large capitalization and short positions that the subadvisor believes have deteriorating fundamentals or appear overvalued.
• A "global unconstrained multi-strategy" strategy that identifies and pursues diverse strategies across asset classes, sectors, currencies, interest rates, inflation and volatility that are expected to work well together whether markets are rising or falling.
• An "absolute return equity market neutral" strategy that aims to earn a positive absolute and attractive risk adjusted return while demonstrating low correlation with, and lower volatility than, traditional long only investment portfolios.
• A "diversified currency strategy" that seeks to produce absolute returns from a blend of a fundamental discretionary process and a fundamental systematic process by investing in developed market currency instruments.
• A "long/short US, small cap equity" strategy in which the subadvisor primarily buys securities of US small capitalization companies "long" that the subadvisor believes will out-perform the market, and sells securities of US small capitalization companies "short" that the subadvisor believes will underperform the market.
Mutual funds are sold by prospectus only. You should read it carefully and consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, expenses and other important information contained in the prospectus before investing. Prospectuses for most of our funds can be obtained from your financial advisor, by calling UBS Funds at 800-647 1568 or by visiting our Website at www.ubs.com/am-us.
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, 2018 prospectuses, were as follows: Class A—2.50% and 2.41%; Class Y—2.25% and 2.16%; and Class P—2.27% and 2.18%. 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 through November 30, 2019 to the extent necessary to offset the cost savings to UBS AM for allocating a portion of the Portfolio's assets to other unaffiliated pooled investment vehicles and index futures. 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. Class A—1.88%; Class Y—1.63%; and Class P—1.63%. 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.
1 Maximum sales charge for Class A shares is 5.5%. Class A shares bear ongoing 12b-1 service fees of 0.25% annually.
2 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.
3 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.
4 The FTSE 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.
5 The Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Index is an unmanaged broad-based, market capitalization-weighted index which is designed to measure the broad investment-grade global fixed income markets for US and non-US government, government-related, corporate and securitized sectors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
6 The MSCI World 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.
7 The HFRI Fund of Funds Composite Index is an index of Fund of Funds strategies which invest 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 vesting 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 August 3, 2015, a 1% redemption fee was imposed on sales or exchanges of any class of shares of the Portfolio made during the specified holding period.
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. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. For month-end performance figures, please visit www.ubs.com/us-mutualfundperformance.

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, February 1, 2019 to July 31, 2019.
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.

Organization and significant accounting policies
PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust") is an open-end management investment company registered with the US Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), currently offering multiple series representing separate investment portfolios. The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust organized 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 at par value of $0.001 per share.
The Trust has fifteen series available for investment, each having its own investment objectives and policies: PACE Government 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 Global 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 for purposes of the 1940 Act.
UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") serves as the investment manager and administrator for the Portfolios and also as the investment advisor for PACE Government Money Market Investments and a portion of PACE Alternative Strategies Investments' assets. Subject to the approval and oversight of the Portfolios' Board of Trustees (the "Board"), UBS AM selects and oversees other investment subadvisors, who provide advisory services for the other Portfolios. UBS Asset Management (US) Inc. ("UBS AM (US)") serves as principal underwriter for the Portfolios. UBS AM and UBS AM (US) are indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of UBS Group AG. UBS Group AG is an internationally diversified organization with headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland. UBS Group AG operates in many areas of the financial services industry.
Each Portfolio currently offers Class A, Class Y, and Class P shares, with the exception of PACE Government Money Market Investments, which currently offers Class P shares only, and PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments, which, effective January 25, 2018, only offers Class A 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 and certain other advisory programs offered through select sponsors, except that PACE Government Money Market Investments shares are also available to participants in the PACESM Multi Advisor Program.
Prior to July 12, 2018, the Portfolios offered Class C shares. At the recommendation of UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc., each Portfolio's investment advisor, the Board of Trustees of the Trust approved the closure of Class C of each Portfolio and the automatic conversion of Class C shares of each Portfolio into Class A shares of the same Portfolio (the "Conversion").
Effective on July 12, 2018 (the "Closure Date"), the Portfolios ceased offering Class C shares. New or additional investments into Class C shares, including investments through an automatic investment plan, were not permitted after the Closure Date.
On October 12, 2018 (the "Conversion Date"), all outstanding Class C shares of each Portfolio were automatically converted into Class A shares of the same Portfolio. From the Closure Date to the Conversion Date (the "Conversion Period"), the 12b-1 distribution fees (0.50% of average net assets for PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed

Income Investments, PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments, PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments, PACE Municipal Fixed Income Investments, PACE Global Fixed Income Investments and PACE High Yield Investments, and 0.75% of average net assets for all other Portfolios) and any contingent deferred sales charges applicable to Class C shares were waived; 12b-1 service fees (0.25% of average net assets) continued to be assessed. During the Conversion Period, automatic reinvestment of Class C share dividend and capital gain distributions continued. Upon the conversion of Class C shares into Class A shares, each Class C shareholder owned Class A shares having an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of Class C shares held by that shareholder as of the close of business on the Conversion Date. Any contingent deferred sales charges applicable to Class C shares were waived in connection with the conversion to Class A shares. The 12b-1 service fee applicable to Class A shares applies to the converted shares. Class C shares converted into Class A shares as a tax-free event for federal income tax purposes.
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 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 any prior claims or losses 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. There is no assurance, however, that the Portfolio will be able 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. The Portfolio has adopted a policy to operate as a "government money market fund" and as such the Portfolio is permitted to seek to maintain a stable price per share. In addition, by operating as a "government money market fund", the Portfolio is exempt from requirements that permit the imposition of a liquidity fee and/or temporary redemption gates. While the Portfolio's Board may elect to subject the Portfolio to liquidity fee and gate requirements in the future, the Board has not elected to do so at this time.
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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In March 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): "Premium Amortization On Purchased Callable Debt Securities" ("ASU 2017-08"). The update provides guidance related to the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. ASU 2017-08 is effective for those annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, that begin after December 15, 2018. Management is currently assessing the potential impact of these changes to future financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"). The update introduces new fair value disclosure requirements, eliminates some prior fair value disclosure requirements, and modifies certain existing fair value disclosure requirements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently assessing the potential impact of these changes to future financial statements.

PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
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 and expense are 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.
Dividends and distributions—Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains and/or return of capital are determined in accordance with US 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.
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 and sales of investment securities and 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 effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates from the effect of the changes in the market prices of securities. However, the Portfolios do isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates when determining the realized gain or loss upon the sale or maturity of foreign currency-denominated securities 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.
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 some Portfolios in the Trust invest.
Small capitalization ("small cap") companies may be more vulnerable than larger capitalization ("large cap") 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 large cap companies or the market averages in general and therefore may involve greater risk than investing in large cap 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.

Notes to financial statements
The ability of the issuers of debt securities held by the Funds to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments particular to a specific industry, country, state or region.
Investments in bonds with ratings of BB (Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC or Fitch Ratings, Inc.) 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.
Valuation of investments
Each Portfolio generally 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). The NYSE normally is not open, and the Portfolios do not price their shares, on most national holidays and Good Friday. To the extent that a Portfolio's assets are traded in other markets on days when the NYSE is not open, the value of a Portfolio's assets may be affected on those days. 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 generally will still be calculated as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. The time at which a Portfolio calculates its net asset value and until which purchase, sale or exchange orders are accepted may be changed as permitted by the SEC.
Under Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, as amended ("Rule 2a-7"), PACE Government Money Market Investments has adopted a policy to operate as a "government money market fund". Under Rule 2a-7, a "government money market fund" invests 99.5% or more of its total assets in cash, government securities, and/or repurchase agreements that are collateralized fully (i.e., collateralized by cash and/or government securities). As a "government money market fund", PACE Government Money Market Investments values its investments at amortized cost unless the Portfolio's Board determines that this does not represent fair value. 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.
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 investments. 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. Investments also may be valued based on appraisals derived from information concerning the investment or similar investments received from recognized dealers in those holdings.
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 normally are 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. Investments listed on foreign stock exchanges may be fair valued based on significant events that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign markets. 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. 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. Foreign currency exchange rates are generally determined as of the close of the NYSE.

Notes to financial statements
Certain investments in which the Portfolios invest are traded in markets that close before 4:00 p.m., Eastern time. Normally, developments that occur between the close of the foreign markets and 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, will not be reflected in a Portfolio's net asset value. However, if any of the Portfolios determine that such developments are so significant that they will materially affect the value of the Portfolio's investments, the Portfolio may adjust the previous closing prices to reflect what is believed to be the fair value of these investments as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern time.
Certain Portfolios 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. The systematic fair valuation model may use calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. If an investment is valued at "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 securities being transferred between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair valuation hierarchy at the end of the reporting period. Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, if any, are disclosed near the end of each Portfolio's Portfolio of investments.
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, Fair Value Measurement, investments in investment companies without publicly published prices are also valued at the daily net asset value.
All investments quoted in foreign currencies are 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.
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.
OTC swaps 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. Centrally cleared swaps are valued using prices from the counterparty clearing houses.
The Board has delegated to the Equities, Fixed Income, and Multi-Asset Valuation Committee ("VC") the responsibility for making fair value determinations with respect to the Portfolios' portfolio holdings. The VC is comprised of representatives of management. The VC 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 VC, 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 VC 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.
The types of investments for which such fair value pricing may be necessary include, but are not limited to: foreign investments under some circumstances: 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. The need to fair value a Portfolio's portfolio investments may also result from low trading volume in foreign markets or thinly traded domestic

investments, and when a security that is subject to a trading limit or collar on the exchange or market on which it is primarily traded reaches the "limit up" or "limit down" price and no trading has taken place at that price. 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 investment; and the evaluation of forces which influence the market in which the investment is 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 a fair value pricing service.
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.
A fair value hierarchy table has been included near the end of each Portfolio's Portfolio of investments.
Investments
Treasury Inflation Protected Securities—The Portfolios may purchase Treasury inflation protected securities ("TIPS") which are debt securities issued by the U.S. Treasury. TIPS adjust for inflation based on changes in the published Consumer Price Index ("CPI"). During periods of inflation when the CPI index increases, the principal amount of the debt to which the rate of interest is applied increases, which in turn increases the yield. During periods of deflation when the CPI index decreases, the principal amount of the debt to which the rate of interest is applied decreases, which in turn lowers the yield. At maturity, TIPS return the higher of the principal amount at maturity or the initial face amount of the debt.
Real estate investment trusts—The Portfolios may invest in real estate investment trusts ("REITs"). Distributions from a REIT are initially recorded as dividend income and may subsequently be recharacterized by the REIT at the end of its tax year as a return of capital and/or capital gains. The Portfolio estimates the character of dividends received from REITs for financial reporting purposes based on the distribution history of each REIT. Once actual distribution characterizations are made available by the REITs, typically after calendar year end, the Portfolio updates its accounting and/or tax books and records.
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 their 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. Certain portfolios obtain securities on terms that allow it to resell or repledge the securities to others.
Repurchase agreements carry certain risks not associated with direct investments in securities, including a possible decline in the market value of the underlying obligations. If their value becomes less than the repurchase price, plus any agreed-upon additional amount, the counterparty must provide additional collateral so that the collateral is at least equal to the repurchase price plus any agreed-upon additional amount. The difference between the total amount to be received upon repurchase of the obligations and the price that was paid by a Portfolio upon acquisition

is accrued as interest and included in its net investment income. 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 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 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 intends to enter into repurchase agreements only in transactions with counterparties believed by UBS AM and the applicable subadvisor to present minimal credit risks.
Each Portfolio may participate in joint repurchase agreement transactions with other Portfolios managed, advised or subadvised by UBS AM in accordance with an exemptive order granted by the SEC pursuant to Section 17(d) of the 1940 Act and Rule 17d-1 thereunder. 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 exposed to a fee for uninvested cash held in a business account at a bank.
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.
During the year ended July 31, 2019, only PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments and PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments utilized reverse repurchase agreement transactions.
The table below represents the remaining contractual maturity as of July 31, 2019, of the reverse repurchase agreement transactions accounted for as secured borrowings.

Securities traded on to-be-announced basis—Certain Portfolios may from time to time purchase, or short sell, 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 securities. 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.
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
324

Notes to financial statements
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 year ended July 31, 2019, only PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments and PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments utilized treasury roll transactions.
The table below represents the remaining contractual maturity as of July 31, 2019, of the treasury roll transactions accounted for as secured borrowings.

Mortgage-backed securities—Certain Portfolios may invest in mortgage-backed securities ("MBS"), representing direct or indirect interests in pools of underlying mortgage loans that are secured by real property. These securities provide investors with payments consisting of both principal and interest as the mortgages in the underlying mortgage pools are paid.
The timely payment of principal and interest (but not the market value) on MBS issued or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae (formally known as the Government National Mortgage Association or GNMA) is backed by Ginnie Mae and the full faith and credit of the US government. Obligations issued by Fannie Mae (formally known as the Federal National Mortgage Association or FNMA) and Freddie Mac (formally known as the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Company or FHLMC) are historically supported only by the credit of the issuer, but currently are guaranteed by the US government in connection with such agencies being placed temporarily into conservatorship by the US government.
Some MBS are sponsored or issued by private entities. Payments of principal and interest (but not the market value) of such private MBS may be supported by pools of mortgage loans or other MBS that are guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the US government or one of its agencies or instrumentalities, or they may be issued without any government guarantee of the underlying mortgage assets but with some form of non-government credit enhancement.
Collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMO") are a type of MBS. A CMO is a debt security that may be collateralized by whole mortgage loans or mortgage pass-through securities. The mortgage loans or mortgage pass-through securities are divided into classes or tranches with each class having its own characteristics. Investors typically receive payments out of the interest and principal on the underlying mortgages. The portions of these payments that investors receive, as well as the priority of their rights to receive payments, are determined by the specific terms of the CMO class.
325
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements
The yield characteristics of MBS differ from those of traditional debt securities. Among the major differences are that interest and principal payments are made more frequently, usually monthly, and that principal may be prepaid at any time because the underlying mortgage loans or other obligations generally may be prepaid at any time. Prepayments on a pool of mortgage loans are influenced by a variety of economic, geographic, social and other factors. Generally, prepayments on fixed-rate mortgage loans will increase during a period of falling interest rates and decrease during a period of rising interest rates. Certain classes of CMOs and other MBS are structured in a manner that makes them extremely sensitive to changes in prepayment rates. Such classes include interest-only ("IO") and principal-only ("PO") classes. IOs are entitled to receive all or a portion of the interest, but none (or only a nominal amount) of the principal payments, from the underlying mortgage assets. If the mortgage assets underlying an IO experience greater than anticipated principal prepayments, then the total amount of interest payments allocable to the IO class, and therefore the yield to investors, generally will be reduced. Conversely, PO classes are entitled to receive all or a portion of the principal payments, but none of the interest, from the underlying mortgage assets. PO classes are purchased at substantial discounts from par, and the yield to investors will be reduced if principal payments are slower than expected.
Asset-backed securities—Certain Portfolios may invest in asset-backed securities ("ABS"), representing interests in pools of certain types of underlying installment loans, home equity loans, leases of various types of real and personal property and receivables from revolving lines of credit (credit cards). Such assets are securitized through the use of trusts or special purpose corporations. The yield characteristics of ABS differ from those of traditional debt securities. One such major difference is that principal may be prepaid at any time because the underlying obligations generally may be prepaid at any time. ABS may decrease in value as a result of increases in interest rates and may benefit less than other fixed-income securities from declining interest rates because of the risk of prepayment.
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 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 sale transactions 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"). 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.
326

Notes to financial statements
The Portfolio must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. 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 appreciation or depreciation on the Statement of operations. 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. 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 incurs transaction costs, including dividend expense, borrowing costs and interest expense, in connection with opening, maintaining and closing short sales "against the box". These dividends and interest are booked as an expense or liability to the Portfolio.
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 Large Co Value Equity Investments, PACE International 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), in anticipation of a decline in the security's price.
The Portfolio must borrow the security to make delivery to the buyer. 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 appreciation or depreciation on the Statement of operations. The Portfolio will realize 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 the Portfolio will realize a gain if the security declines in price between those same dates. Each Portfolio segregates collateral, consisting of cash or liquid assets, sufficient to collateralize the market value of the investments sold short. Each Portfolio incurs transaction costs, including dividend expense, borrowing costs and interest expenses in connection with opening, maintaining and closing short sales. These dividends and interest are booked as an expense or liability to the Portfolio.
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. The Portfolio's investments held long could also decline in value at the same time the value of the investment sold short increases, thereby increasing the Portfolio's potential for loss. There is also the risk that the counterparty to a short sale transaction may fail to honor its contract terms, causing a loss to the Portfolio. In addition, PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments and PACE International Equity Investments may invest the proceeds received upon the initial sale of the security, resulting in leverage and increasing each Portfolio's return and loss potential. PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments and PACE International Equity Investments may also engage in short sale transactions that are effected through their custodian and may deliver cash received in connection with its securities lending activity to the custodian as collateral to secure the short sale transactions.
For the year ended July 31, 2019, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments did not engage in uncovered short sale transactions.
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 in each Portfolio's portfolio footnotes.
Derivative instruments
Purchased options—Certain Portfolios may purchase put and call options, including, but not limited to, options on foreign or US securities, indices, foreign currencies, options on futures contracts and options on swap agreements
327
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements
(commonly referred to as swaptions), in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the markets or in an attempt to enhance income or gains. 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. Purchased options are shown as portfolio holdings within the Portfolio of investments and are included in the Statement of assets and liabilities in investments, at value.
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.
Option writing—Certain Portfolios may write (sell) put and call options, including, but not limited to, options on foreign or US securities, indices, foreign currencies, options on futures contracts and options on swap agreements (commonly referred to as swaptions), in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the markets or in an attempt to enhance income or gains.
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 a 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 a 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 a 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, a Portfolio bears 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.
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). It also includes written swaptions, where the Portfolios would be obligated to enter into a swap agreement.
The maximum payout for written put options is limited to the number of put option contracts written and the related strike prices, respectively. Maximum payout amounts could be offset by the subsequent sale, if any, of assets obtained via the execution of a payout event. At July 31, 2019, PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments, PACE Intermediate Fixed Income Investments, and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments had maximum payout amounts of approximately $37,471,500, $13,301,375 and $2,992,500 respectively, relating to written put option contracts.
There may not be a limit on the maximum payout for written swaptions. For written credit default swaptions that sell protection the maximum payout is limited to the notional amount of the underlying credit default swap. At July 31,

2019, PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments had a maximum payout for credit default swaptions that sell protection of approximately $1,900,000.
Futures contracts—Certain Funds may purchase or sell futures contracts to increase or reduce their exposure to an asset class without purchasing or selling the underlying securities, either as a hedge or to enhance income or realized gains. Generally, a futures contract is a standard binding agreement to buy or sell a specified quantity of an underlying reference asset, such as a specific security or currency, at a specified price at a specified later date.
Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to deliver to a broker an amount of cash and/or US 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 a Portfolio, depending on the daily 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 appreciation or depreciation 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.
Using futures contracts involves various risks, including market interest rate and equity risks. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility 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. To the extent that market prices move in an unexpected direction, there is a risk that a Portfolio will not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contract or may realize a loss.
Forward foreign currency contracts—Certain Portfolios may enter into forward foreign currency contracts as part of their investment objective, for purposes of risk management or to hedge the US dollar value of portfolio securities denominated in a particular currency. Generally, a forward foreign currency contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency contracts are settled with the counterparty in US dollars, or another fully convertible currency, without the physical delivery of foreign currency.
Fluctuations in the value of open forward foreign currency contracts are recorded daily for book purposes as unrealized appreciation or depreciation 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 been sold or matured.
Risks may arise upon entering into forward foreign currency 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.
Swap agreements—Certain Portfolios may engage in swap agreements, including, but not limited to, interest rate, credit default, total return and variance swap agreements. A Portfolio expects to enter into these transactions to preserve a return or spread on a particular investment or to hedge a portion of the portfolio's duration, to protect against any increase in the price of securities the Portfolio anticipates purchasing at a later date, to gain exposure to certain markets in the most economical way possible or in an attempt to enhance income or gains.
The Portfolios accrue for interim payments on swap agreements on a daily basis, with the net amount recorded within unrealized appreciation or depreciation of swap agreements. Once interim payments are settled in cash, the net amount is recorded as realized gain/loss on swap agreements, in addition to realized gain/loss recorded upon the termination of swap agreements on the Statement of operations. Fluctuations in the value of swap agreements are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swap agreements.
329

Notes to financial statements
Certain Portfolios may enter into interest rate swap agreements with another party to receive or pay interest (e.g., an exchange of fixed rate payments for floating rate payments) to protect themselves from interest rate fluctuations. 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. Interest rate swap agreements are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and interest rate risk.
Credit default swap agreements involve commitments to make or receive payments in the event of a default of a security or other credit event of the referenced obligation. As a buyer, the Portfolio would make periodic payments to the counterparty, and the Portfolio would receive payments only upon the occurrence of a default or credit event. If no default or credit event occurs, the Portfolio will lose its periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract. However, if a default or a credit event does occur, the Portfolio typically would receive full notional value for the referenced 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 default or 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 would pay full notional value for the referenced obligation that may have little or no value. Credit default swap agreements may involve greater risks than if the Portfolio had invested in the referenced 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 swap agreements 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 swap agreements on credit 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 market 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 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). A Portfolio may use credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging market 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 the period end for which a Portfolio is the seller of

protection are disclosed under the sections "Credit default swap agreements on credit indices—sell protection" and "Credit default swap agreements 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 agreements involve commitments to pay or receive interest in exchange for a market-linked return based on a notional amount. 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, respectively. Total return swap agreements are marked-to-market daily, and the change, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Total return swap agreements are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and the risk that there may be unfavorable changes in the underlying investments or instruments.
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 realized price variance of the underlying asset 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.
The use of swap agreements involves investment techniques, risks, and transaction costs different from those associated with ordinary portfolio security transactions, including assumptions about market conditions, interest rates, and other applicable factors. As a result, the performance of the Portfolio will be different than if it had used ordinary portfolio security transactions. OTC swap agreements do not involve the delivery of securities and are subject to counterparty risk. If the other party to a swap agreement defaults and fails to consummate the transaction, the 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.
Certain clearinghouses offer clearing for limited types of derivatives transactions, such as interest rate and credit default swap agreements. Centrally cleared swap agreements must be transacted through a futures commission merchant ("FCM") and cleared through a clearinghouse that serves as a central counterparty. The performance of a centrally cleared swap transaction is effectively guaranteed by a central clearinghouse, thereby reducing 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. Centrally cleared swap agreements, if any, are reported on the Statement of assets and liabilities based on variation margin received or paid, if any.
Derivatives by underlying risk—Investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statement of operations. Under US GAAP, investment companies do not qualify for hedge accounting. 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 US GAAP.
The volume of derivatives as disclosed in each Portfolio's Portfolio of investments is representative of the volume of derivatives outstanding during the year ended July 31, 2019.

Notes to financial statements
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 Portfolio of investments. The aggregate fair value of assets that are already posted as collateral as of July 31, 2019 is reflected in the Statement of assets and liabilities.
At July 31, 2019, the Portfolio had the following derivatives categorized by underlying risk:

Notes to financial statements
Offsetting of certain derivatives—The Portfolios typically enter into International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements ("ISDA Master Agreements") or similar 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. The Statement of assets and liabilities is presented gross of any netting.

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.
UBS Financial Services Inc. has 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 year ended July 31, 2019, the amount of the reduction in transfer agency and related services fees charged by BNY Mellon to the Portfolio was $201,698 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 year ended July 31, 2019, 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 initially secured at all times by cash, U.S. government securities and irrevocable letters of credit in an amount at least equal to 102% of the market value of the securities loaned with respect to domestic securities and 105% of the market value of the securities loaned with respect to foreign securities. In the event that the market value of the cash, U.S. government securities, and irrevocable letters of credit securing the loan falls below 100% for domestic securities, and 103% for foreign securities, the borrower must provide additional cash, U.S. government securities, and irrevocable letters of credit so that the total securing the loan is at least 102% of the market value for domestic securities and 105% of the market value for foreign securities.
Each 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 and 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 State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio, 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, PACE International Equity Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies 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 July 31, 2019, the following Portfolios had securities on loan at value, cash collateral and non-cash collateral as follows:

Bank line of credit
With the exception of PACE Government Money Market Investments, the Portfolios participate with other Portfolios managed, advised or subadvised by UBS AM in a $185 million committed credit facility (the "Committed Credit Facility") with State Street Bank and Trust Company. The Committed Credit Facility is to be utilized for temporary financing until the settlement of sales or purchases of portfolio securities, the repurchase or redemption of shares of a participating Portfolio at the request of shareholders and other temporary or emergency purposes.
Interest on amounts borrowed is calculated based on the prevailing rates in effect at the time of borrowing. Each Portfolio covered by the Committed Credit Facility has agreed to pay commitment fees on the average daily balance of the Committed Credit Facility not utilized. Commitment fees have been allocated among the Portfolios in the Committed Credit Facility as follows: 50% of the allocation is based on the relative asset size of Portfolios and the

Commission recapture program
Certain Portfolios participate in a brokerage commission recapture program. These Portfolios have established commission recapture arrangements with certain participating brokers or dealers. If a Portfolio's investment subadvisor chooses to execute a transaction through a participating broker subject to best price and execution, the broker will rebate a portion of the commission back to the Portfolio. Any collateral benefit received through participation in the commission recapture program is directed exclusively to the Portfolio. For the year ended July 31, 2019, the following Portfolios recorded recaptured commissions which are reflected in the Statement of operations within the net realized gains (losses) from investments:

At July 31, 2019, the effect of permanent "book/tax" reclassifications resulted in increases and decreases to components of the Portfolios' net assets as follows:
Portfolio | | Distributable earnings (losses) | | Beneficial interest | |
PACE Small/Medium Co Growth Equity Investments | | $ | 1,029,495 | | | $ | (1,029,495 | ) | |
PACE International Equity Investments | | | 37,292,562 | | | | (37,292,562 | ) | |
PACE Alternative Strategies Investments | | | 13,875,505 | | | | (13,875,505 | ) | |
These differences are primarily due to net operating losses and distributions in excess of net investment income.
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 July 31, 2019, there are no significant uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition in the financial statements. It is each Portfolio's policy to record any significant foreign tax exposures in the financial statements. The Portfolios recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of operations. During the year ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolios did not incur any interest or penalties. Capital gains realized by the Portfolios on securities issued in or by certain foreign countries may be subject to capital gains tax imposed by those countries.
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, 2019, remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds comprising PACE Select Advisors Trust at July 31, 2019, the results of their operations and cash flows (for PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments and PACE International Equity Investments) for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on each of the Funds' financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2019, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

PACE Select Advisors Trust
Board approvals of investment management and administration agreement and subadvisory agreements (unaudited)
Background—At a meeting of the board of PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust") on July 23-24, 2019, the members of the board, including the trustees who are not "interested persons," as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, of the Trust (the "Independent Trustees"), considered and approved the continuance of the investment management and administration agreement (the "Investment Management and Administration Agreement") between UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") and the Trust, on behalf of each series of the Trust (each a "Portfolio" and together the "Portfolios"), and, for those Portfolios with subadvisors/sub-manager(s), the subadvisory/sub-management agreements for the Portfolios. (Throughout this discussion, each subadvisor/sub-manager to a Portfolio is referred to as a "Subadvisor" and each subadvisory/sub-management agreement is referred to as a "Subadvisory Agreement.") In preparing for the meeting, the Independent Trustees had requested and received extensive information from UBS AM to assist them, including information about UBS AM and the Portfolios' Subadvisors, as well as the management, subadvisory, administrative and distribution arrangements for the Portfolios. The board reviewed and discussed with management the materials initially provided by UBS AM prior to the scheduled board meeting. The Independent Trustees also met in executive session to review the disclosure that had been made to them. At these sessions the Independent Trustees were joined by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees also received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the duties of board members in considering the approval of management, subadvisory/sub-management, administration and distribution agreements.
In its consideration of the approval of the Investment Management and Administration Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements, the board considered the following factors:
Nature, extent and quality of the services under the Investment Management and Administration Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements—The board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of management services provided to the Portfolios by UBS AM and, for those Portfolios with Subadvisor(s), subadvisory services provided by each Subadvisor during the past year. The board also considered the nature, extent and quality of administrative, distribution and shareholder services performed by UBS AM and its affiliates for the Portfolios and the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, each Portfolio's compliance policies and procedures. The board noted that it received information at regular meetings throughout the year regarding the services rendered by UBS AM concerning the management of each Portfolio's affairs and UBS AM's role in coordinating and overseeing providers of other services to the Portfolios. The board noted the complexity of this process for the Portfolios, given their broad range of investment strategies. The board noted that UBS AM provided extensive oversight of the Subadvisors for the Portfolios and reported to the board at each regular meeting on the Subadvisors' performance and compliance with applicable requirements and made recommendations with respect to Subadvisor changes (both in terms of the allocation of Portfolio assets to Subadvisors and their hiring and termination) from time to time based on the performance of the Subadvisors and other relevant factors. The board's evaluation of the services provided by UBS AM and the Subadvisors took into account the board's knowledge and familiarity gained as board members of funds in the UBS New York fund complex, including the scope and quality of UBS AM's investment management and other capabilities and the quality of its administrative and other services. The board observed that the scope of services provided by UBS AM had expanded over time as a result of regulatory and other developments, including (i) maintaining and monitoring its own and the Portfolios' expanded compliance programs and (ii) hiring and replacing Subadvisors, monitoring current Subadvisors (including adjusting their Portfolio asset allocations) and coordinating strategies among Subadvisors to continue to optimize the implementation and effectuation of the Portfolios' investment strategies. It also was noted that the Investment Management and Administration Agreement under consideration had been approved by shareholders at a special meeting of shareholders of the Trust held in 2008.
The board had available to it the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the senior personnel at UBS AM responsible for the Portfolios and had previously met with and received information regarding the person(s) or portfolio management team from each Subadvisor and/or UBS AM primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of each Portfolio. The board recognized that several senior personnel at UBS AM report to the board regularly,
371
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Board approvals of investment management and administration agreement and subadvisory agreements (unaudited)
and that at each regular meeting the board receives a detailed report from UBS AM on each Portfolio's performance and receives more extensive information periodically from each Subadvisor. The board also considered, based on its knowledge of UBS AM and its affiliates, the financial resources available to UBS AM and its parent organization, UBS Group AG. In that regard, the board received extensive financial information regarding UBS AM and noted that it was a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of one of the largest financial services firms in the world. It also was noted that UBS AM had approximately $183 billion in assets under management as of March 31, 2019 and was part of the UBS Asset Management Division, which had approximately $824 billion in assets under management worldwide as of March 31, 2019. The board also was cognizant of, and considered, the regulatory and litigation actions and investigations occurring in the past few years involving UBS Group AG, UBS AM and certain of their affiliates.
The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to the Portfolios under the Investment Management and Administration Agreement as well as under the Subadvisory Agreements.
Management and subadvisory fees and expense ratios—For each Portfolio, the board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee (the "Contractual Management Fee") payable by the Portfolio to UBS AM in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by UBS AM pursuant to the Investment Management and Administration Agreement. The board also reviewed and considered the fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangements for each Portfolio (if any) and considered the actual fee rate (after taking any waivers and reimbursements into account) (the "Actual Management Fee") payable by the Portfolio. The board considered whether UBS AM had entered into one or more fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement agreements with a Portfolio under which UBS AM was contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse the Portfolio so that the total ordinary operating expenses of certain or all classes of that Portfolio through November 30, 2019 (excluding dividend expense, borrowing costs, interest expense relating to short sales, expenses attributable to investment in other investment companies, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed specified limits for each class (or, with respect to certain Portfolios, an agreement to waive a portion of its management fee). The board also considered that each Portfolio with such a fee waiver/reimbursement agreement had agreed to repay UBS AM for those waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses if the Portfolio can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing its expenses in any of those years to exceed the expense caps. Moreover, the board considered that, in addition to continuing to waive certain fees and/or reimbursing certain expenses as in past years, UBS AM also offered specific new expense caps for certain Portfolios as discussed below. Additionally, the board received and considered information comparing each Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee, Actual Management Fee and overall expenses with those of funds in a group of funds selected and provided by Broadridge, an independent provider of investment company data (the "Expense Group"). The board also received from Broadridge comparative data on a supplemental expense group of subadvised peers (which may include certain of the subadvised peers contained within the primary Expense Group) (the "Supplemental Expense Group"). A discussion of the board's considerations with respect to each Portfolio's fees is set forth below.
In connection with its consideration of each Portfolio's management fees, the board also received information on UBS AM's standard institutional account fees for accounts of a similar investment type to each of the Portfolios. The board noted management's explanation that comparisons with such accounts may be of limited relevance given the different structures and regulatory requirements of mutual funds, such as the Portfolios, versus those accounts and the differences in the levels of services required by the Portfolios and those accounts. The board also received information on fees charged to other mutual funds managed by UBS AM. The board observed that it had received certain information regarding fees, compensation from other similar funds, and economies of scale from certain Subadvisors as part of the summary of each Subadvisor's responses to requests for due diligence materials in connection with the board's annual reconsideration of the Subadvisory Agreements; however, the board also observed that the compensation paid to a Subadvisor is paid by UBS AM, not by the particular Portfolio, and, accordingly,
372
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Board approvals of investment management and administration agreement and subadvisory agreements (unaudited)
that the retention of a Subadvisor generally does not increase the fees otherwise incurred by a Portfolio's shareholders (unless a management fee waiver level was affected by a subadvisory fee increase or a reallocation of assets).
Portfolio performance—For each Portfolio, the board received and considered (a) annualized total return information of the Portfolio compared to other funds (the "Performance Universe") selected by Broadridge over the one-, three-, five-, ten-year and since inception periods ended April 30, 2019, and (b) annualized performance information for each year in the ten-year period ended April 30, 2019. Although the board received information for the ten-year and since inception periods, in its analysis, it generally placed greater emphasis on the one-, three- and five-year periods. The board was provided with a description of the methodology Broadridge used to determine the similarity of a Portfolio with the funds included in its Performance Universe. The board also considered UBS AM's statement that while management believed that the Broadridge peer groups were useful in evaluating Portfolio expenses relative to peers, they were less useful in evaluating performance, as in many cases they were broad-based and consisted of funds that did not necessarily have similar investment parameters to the applicable Portfolio. The board also noted that it had received information throughout the year at periodic intervals with respect to each Portfolio's performance, in most cases with respect to certain benchmark indices, including with respect to each Subadvisor's performance. Further discussion of the board's considerations with respect to each Portfolio's performance is set forth below.
Advisor profitability—The board received and considered a profitability analysis of UBS AM and its affiliates in providing services to each Portfolio and was provided information on UBS AM's expense allocation methodology. The board also received profitability information with respect to the UBS New York fund complex as a whole. The board observed that the profitability and expense analyses are substantially similar to those used by UBS AM for many internal purposes, and are subject to regular review with respect to how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. UBS AM's profitability was considered not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Portfolios. A Subadvisor's profitability in providing services to a Portfolio was not a significant factor considered by the board, as the subadvisory fees are paid by UBS AM, not by the relevant Portfolio.
Economies of scale—The board received and considered information from management regarding whether UBS AM realized economies of scale as the Portfolios' assets grew, whether the Portfolios have appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of any further economies of scale for the Portfolios. The board considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to the Portfolios were being passed along to the shareholders. The board noted that each Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee contained breakpoints, with the exception of PACE Government Money Market Investments. The board also noted that as of April 30, 2019, with the exception of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments, PACE Global Fixed Income Investments, PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments, PACE High Yield Investments, PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments and PACE Small/Medium Co Growth Equity Investments, for those Portfolios having breakpoints, each Portfolio's asset level exceeded at least its first breakpoint. Accordingly, the board determined that actual economies of scale existed for those Portfolios whose assets had reached the first breakpoint level and potential economies of scale existed for those Portfolios whose assets had not yet reached their first breakpoint level. The board also noted that to the extent a Portfolio's assets have increased over time, it has realized other economies of scale as certain expenses, such as fees for trustees, auditor and legal fees and printing and postage, become a smaller percentage of overall assets. The board also took note of the relationship between any breakpoints in a subadvisory fee and the breakpoints in fees paid by the Portfolios to UBS AM.
Generally, in light of UBS AM's profitability data, the Actual Management Fees, the Contractual Management Fees, the breakpoints currently in place for the Portfolios and the current assets of the Portfolios, the board believed that UBS AM's sharing of potential and current economies of scale with the Portfolios was acceptable.
Other benefits to UBS AM and the Subadvisors—The board was informed by management that the Subadvisors' relationships with the Portfolios were limited to their provision of subadvisory services to these
373
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Board approvals of investment management and administration agreement and subadvisory agreements (unaudited)
Portfolios, and that therefore, management believed that the Subadvisors and their affiliates did not receive tangible ancillary benefits as a result of the Subadvisors' relationships with the Portfolios, with the exception of possible benefits from soft dollars (e.g., research credits related to transaction commissions) for the equity Portfolios (which also would potentially benefit such Portfolios) and possible limited benefits to certain affiliates of a Subadvisor, such as broker-dealers (e.g., an affiliate's execution of portfolio transactions subject to detailed restrictions in SEC rules and board oversight procedures). The board recognized that certain Subadvisors could receive intangible benefits from their association with the Trust, such as increased name recognition or publicity from being selected as Subadvisors to the Trust after an extensive review process. Similarly, a Portfolio could benefit from having a Subadvisor with an established or well-regarded reputation. In light of the costs of providing investment management, administrative and other services to the Portfolios and UBS AM's ongoing commitment to the Portfolios, the profits and other ancillary benefits that UBS AM and its affiliates received were considered reasonable.
In the discussions that follow, reference is made to the "median" in the Broadridge Expense Group, Supplemental Expense Group and Broadridge Performance Universe categories. With respect to expenses, below median fees or expenses represent fees or expenses that are lower relative to the median, and above median fees or expenses represent fees or expenses that are higher relative to the median of the funds in the relevant Expense Group. With respect to performance, below median performance represents performance that is worse relative to the median, and above median performance represents performance that is better relative to the median of the funds in the relevant Performance Universe. Broadridge information is calculated on a share class basis. References appearing below relate to Class A shares; the board also had information relevant to other share classes (e.g., Class P shares) during its considerations.

In approving the Investment Management and Administration Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements with each of J.P. Morgan Investment Management, Inc. ("J.P. Morgan"), Jackson Square Partners, LLC and Mar Vista Investment Partners, LLC, the board, including the Independent Trustees, also considered the following factors:
Portfolio performance—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's performance was below the Performance Universe median for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods and since inception. It was noted that although the Portfolio's recent performance had improved, the Portfolio had not kept up with its benchmark in a robust environment for growth companies. Management noted it was continuing to evaluate the Subadvisors and the allocation of the Portfolio's assets.
Management and subadvisory fees and expense ratios—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee were above the median in the Portfolio's Expense Group, and the Portfolio's total expenses were at the Expense Group median for the comparison periods utilized in the Broadridge report. Management noted that the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee, although above the median, were reasonably close to the Expense Group median (within five basis points (that is, hundredths of a percentage point)—i.e., 0.05% in each instance). Management further noted that, compared to the Supplemental Expense Group, consisting of five other subadvised funds, the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee were more closely aligned with the Portfolio's peers.

Portfolio performance—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's performance was above the Performance Universe median for the five-year period, but below the Performance Universe median for the one-, three- and ten-year periods and since inception, ranking in the third quintile of performance in the Performance Universe over the one- and ten-year periods.
Management and subadvisory fees and expense ratios—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee, Actual Management Fee and total expenses were above the median in the Portfolio's Expense Group for the comparison periods utilized in the Broadridge report. Management explained that the Portfolio's total expenses, although above the median, were reasonably close to the Expense Group median (within three basis points—i.e., 0.03%). It was noted that, compared to the Supplemental Expense Group, consisting of four other subadvised funds, the Portfolio's Actual Management Fee was more closely aligned with its peers, and the Portfolio's total expenses were at the median.
PACE Small/Medium Co Growth Equity Investments
In approving the Investment Management and Administration Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements with each of Riverbridge Partners, LLC and Calamos Advisors LLC, the board, including the Independent Trustees, also considered the following factors:
Portfolio performance—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's performance was above the Performance Universe median for the one-year period, but below the Performance Universe median for the three-, five- and ten-year periods and since inception. It was noted that the Portfolio's recent performance had improved and, for the one- and three-year periods, was above or close to the median.
Management and subadvisory fees and expense ratios—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee, Actual Management Fee and total expenses were below the median in the Portfolio's Expense Group, as well as the Supplemental Expense Group, for the comparison periods utilized in the Broadridge report.
PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments
In approving the Investment Management and Administration Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements with each of Huber Capital Management LLC, Kayne Anderson Rudnick Investment Management, LLC and Sapience Investments, LLC, the board, including the Independent Trustees, also considered the following factors:
Portfolio performance—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's performance was above the Performance Universe median for the one-, three- and five-year periods, but below the Performance Universe median for the ten-year period and since inception.
Management and subadvisory fees and expense ratios—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee were above the median in the Portfolio's Expense Group, and total expenses were below the median in the Portfolio's Expense Group for the comparison periods utilized in the Broadridge report. Management explained that the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee, although above the median, were reasonably close to the Expense Group median (within two basis points—i.e., 0.02% in each instance). It was noted that, compared to the Supplemental Expense Group, consisting of five other subadvised funds, the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee were more closely aligned with its peers.

Management explained that although the Portfolio's benchmark is a large cap core index, the Portfolio was classified under the Broadridge International Multi-Cap Growth category due to a bias in small-mid cap portfolio holdings over the last year. It was noted that the Portfolio's recent performance had improved.
Management and subadvisory fees and expense ratios—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee, Actual Management Fee and total expenses were above the median in the Portfolio's Expense Group for the comparison periods utilized in the Broadridge report.

PACE Government Money Market Investments
In approving the Investment Management and Administration Agreement, the board, including the Independent Trustees, also considered the following factors:
Portfolio performance—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's performance was at or slightly above the Performance Universe median for the five- and ten-year periods and since inception, but slightly below the Performance Universe median for the one- and three-year periods. The board noted that the Portfolio's above median performance included periods during which the Portfolio was managed as a prime money market fund, in contrast to the government money market funds in the Portfolio's Performance Universe.
Management fees and expense ratios—The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's Actual Management Fee was below the median, and its Contractual Management Fee and total expenses were at the median in the Portfolio's Expense Group for the comparison periods utilized in the Broadridge report.
Conclusion
Based on its review and, in certain instances, management's explanations upon further questioning, the board concluded that each Portfolio's investment performance was satisfactory or acceptable and that each management fee and subadvisory fee, as proposed by management after questions and/or suggestions posed by the board, continued to be appropriate under the circumstances and in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Portfolio under the applicable Investment Management and Administration Agreement and Subadvisory Agreement or Subadvisory Agreements, respectively.
In light of all of the foregoing, the board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the Investment Management and Administration Agreement for each Portfolio and, for those Portfolios with Subadvisors, the Subadvisory Agreement(s). No single factor reviewed by the board was identified by the board as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Investment Management and Administration Agreement or, for the subadvised Portfolios, the Subadvisory Agreement(s). The Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process. The board discussed the proposed continuance of the Investment Management and Administration Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of UBS AM or the Subadvisors were present.

Advisor's Comments
The Federal Reserve Board (Fed) initially continued to normalize monetary policy during the reporting period. For example, the Fed raised rates at its meetings in September and December 2018, for a total of four rate hikes in 2018. With its December 2018 increase, the federal funds rate moved to a range between 2.25% and 2.50%. In addition, the Fed continued reducing its balance sheet. However, at its meeting in January 2019, the Fed announced that it would take a less aggressive stance on future rate hikes. Then, as expected, the Fed lowered rates at its meeting in July 2019—the first cut since 2008. While the yields on a wide

range of short-term investments moved higher over the period, yields still remain low by historical comparison. As a result, the Portfolio's yield remained low during the reporting period.
We tactically adjusted the Portfolio's weighted average maturity ("WAM") throughout the 12-month review period. When the reporting period began, the Portfolio had a WAM of 22 days. This was increased to 34 days at the end of the reporting period.
A number of adjustments were made to the Portfolio's sector and issuer positioning during the 12-month period. We modestly reduced the Portfolio's exposure to US government and agency obligations and slightly pared its allocation to repurchase agreements. (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, February 1, 2019 to July 31, 2019.
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 February 1, 2019 | | Ending account value July 31, 2019 | | Expenses paid during period1 02/01/19 to 07/31/19 | | Expense ratio during the period | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,009.10 | | | $ | 2.99 | | | | 0.60 | % | |
Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) | | | 1,000.00 | | | | 1,021.82 | | | | 3.01 | | | | 0.60 | | |
1 Expenses are equal to the Portfolio's annualized net expense ratios, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181 divided by 365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Organization and significant accounting policies
PACE Government Money Market Investments (the "Portfolio") is registered with the US Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified series of PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust"), an open-end management investment company 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 series available for investment, each having its own investment objectives and policies. The financial statements for the other series of the Trust are not included herein. Shares of the Portfolio currently are available only to participants in the PACESM Select Advisors Program and the PACESM Multi Advisor Program.
UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") serves as the investment manager, investment advisor and administrator for the Portfolio. UBS AM is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of UBS Group AG. UBS Group AG is an internationally diversified organization with headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland. UBS Group AG operates in many areas of the financial services industry.
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 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 any prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Notes to financial statements
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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In March 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-08, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs (Subtopic 310-20): "Premium Amortization On Purchased Callable Debt Securities" ("ASU 2017-08"). The update provides guidance related to the amortization period for certain purchased callable debt securities held at a premium. ASU 2017-08 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Management is currently assessing the potential impact of these changes to future financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"). The update introduces new fair value disclosure requirements, eliminates some prior fair value disclosure requirements, and modifies certain existing fair value disclosure requirements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently assessing the potential impact of these changes to future financial statements.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Valuation of investments—Under Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, as amended ("Rule 2a-7") the Portfolio has adopted a policy to operate as a "government money market fund". Under Rule 2a-7, a
16
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements
"government money market fund" invests 99.5% or more of its total assets in cash, government securities, and/or repurchase agreements that are collateralized fully (i.e., collateralized by cash and/or government securities). As a "government money market fund", the Portfolio values its investments at amortized cost unless the Portfolio's Board of Trustees (the "Board") determines that this does not represent fair value. 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.
A fair value hierarchy table has been included near the end of the Portfolio's Portfolio of investments.
Constant net asset value per share—The Portfolio attempts to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share. There is no assurance, however, that the Portfolio will be able 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. The Portfolio has adopted a policy to operate as a "government money market fund" and as such the Portfolio is permitted to seek to maintain a stable price per share.
Liquidity fee and/or redemption gates—By operating as a "government money market fund," the Portfolio is exempt from requirements that permit the imposition of a liquidity fee and/or
17
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements
temporary redemption gates. While the Board may elect to subject the Portfolio to liquidity fee and gate requirements in the future, the Board has not elected to do so at this time.
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 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.
Repurchase agreements carry certain risks not associated with direct investments in securities, including a possible decline in the market value of the underlying obligations. If their value becomes less than the repurchase price, plus any agreed-upon additional amount, the counterparty must provide additional collateral so that the collateral is at least equal to the repurchase price plus any agreed-upon additional amount. The difference between the total amount to be received upon repurchase of the obligations and the price that was paid by a Portfolio upon acquisition is accrued as interest and included in its net investment income. 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 secured by obligations that are not eligible for direct investment under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 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 intends to enter into
18
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements
repurchase agreements only in transactions with counterparties believed by UBS AM to present minimal credit risks.
The Portfolio may participate in joint repurchase agreement transactions with other Portfolios managed, advised or subadvised by 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.
Dividends and distributions—Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions are determined in accordance with US 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 has approved an investment management and administration contract ("Management Contract") with UBS AM. In
19
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements
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 July 31, 2019, UBS AM owes $3,724 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 borrowing costs and interest expense, if any) through November 30, 2019 at a level not to exceed 0.60%. For the period ended July 31, 2019, UBS AM waived $404,306 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.
At July 31, 2019, 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, 2020 | | Expires July 31, 2021 | | Expires July 31, 2022 | |
$ | 1,484,423 | | | $ | 670,937 | | | $ | 409,180 | | | $ | 404,306 | | |
No amount was repaid back to UBS AM in the past year.
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
20
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements
Stanley based on that firm's ability to provide best execution of the transactions.
During the year ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio did not purchase or sell certain securities (e.g., fixed income securities) in principal trades with Morgan Stanley. If any such transactions had occurred, Morgan Stanley would have received compensation in connection with such trades, which may have been in the form of a "mark-up" or "mark-down" of the price of the securities 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.
UBS Financial Services Inc. has 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. For the year ended July 31, 2019, the amount of the reduction in transfer agency and related services fees charged by BNY Mellon to the Portfolio was $201,698, 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 period ended July 31, 2019, UBS Financial Services Inc. received from BNY Mellon, not the Portfolio, $312,420 of the total transfer agency and related services fees paid by the Portfolio to BNY Mellon.

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:
| | Years ended July 31, | |
| | 2019 | | 2018 | |
Shares sold | | | 241,670,811 | | | | 153,320,074 | | |
Shares repurchased | | | (248,947,713 | ) | | | (165,625,042 | ) | |
Dividends reinvested | | | 3,084,709 | | | | 1,513,589 | | |
Net decrease in shares outstanding | | | (4,192,193 | ) | | | (10,791,379 | ) | |
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 fiscal years ended July 31, 2019 and July 31, 2018 was ordinary income in the amount of $3,456,399 and $1,702,668, respectively.
At July 31, 2019, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were undistributed ordinary income of $145,535, accumulated realized capital and other losses of $(971), and other temporary differences of $(146,127).
There were no reclassifications arising from permanent "book/tax" differences for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2019.
Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the "Act"), net capital losses recognized by the Portfolio after
22
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Notes to financial statements
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, 2019, the Portfolio had post-enactment short-term capital loss carryforwards of $971. During the current fiscal year, the portfolio utilized $135 of capital loss carryforwards to offset current year realized gains.
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 July 31, 2019, 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 period ended July 31, 2019, the Portfolio did not incur any interest or penalties.
Each of the tax years in the four year period ended July 31, 2019, remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of PACE Government Money Market Investments (the "Fund") (one of the funds constituting PACE Select Advisors Trust), including the portfolio of investments, as of July 31, 2019 and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund (one of the funds constituting PACE Select Advisors Trust) at July 31, 2019, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over

financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2019, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received.

PACE Government Money Market Investments
Board approval of investment managment and administration agreement (unaudited)
Background—At a meeting of the board of PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust") on July 23-24, 2019, the members of the board, including the trustees who are not "interested persons," as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, of the Trust (the "Independent Trustees"), considered and approved the continuance of the investment management and administration agreement (the "Investment Management and Administration Agreement") between UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") and the Trust, on behalf of PACE Government Money Market Investments (the "Portfolio"). In preparing for the meeting, the Independent Trustees had requested and received extensive information from UBS AM to assist them, including information about UBS AM, as well as the management, administrative and distribution arrangements for the Portfolio. The board reviewed and discussed with management the materials initially provided by UBS AM prior to the scheduled board meeting. The Independent Trustees also met in executive session to review the disclosure that had been made to them. At these sessions the Independent Trustees were joined by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees also received a memorandum from their independent legal counsel discussing the duties of board members in considering the approval of management, administration and distribution agreements.
In its consideration of the approval of the Investment Management and Administration Agreement, the board considered the following factors:
Nature, extent and quality of the services under the Investment Management and Administration Agreement—The board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of management services provided to the Portfolio by UBS AM. The board also considered the nature, extent and quality of administrative, distribution and shareholder services performed by UBS AM and its affiliates for the Portfolio and the resources devoted to, and the record of compliance with, the Portfolio's compliance policies and procedures. The board noted that it received information at regular meetings throughout the year regarding the services rendered
27
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Board approval of investment managment and administration agreement (unaudited)
by UBS AM concerning the management of the Portfolio's affairs and UBS AM's role in coordinating and overseeing providers of other services to the Portfolio. The board's evaluation of the services provided by UBS AM took into account the board's knowledge and familiarity gained as board members of funds in the UBS New York fund complex, including the scope and quality of UBS AM's investment management and other capabilities and the quality of its administrative and other services. The board observed that the scope of services provided by UBS AM had expanded over time as a result of regulatory and other developments, including maintaining and monitoring its own and the Portfolio's expanded compliance programs.
The board had available to it the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the senior personnel at UBS AM responsible for the Portfolio and had previously met with and received information regarding the persons primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Portfolio. The board recognized that several senior personnel at UBS AM report to the board regularly, and that at each regular meeting the board receives a detailed report from UBS AM on the Portfolio's performance. The board also considered, based on its knowledge of UBS AM and its affiliates, the financial resources available to UBS AM and its parent organization, UBS Group AG. In that regard, the board received extensive financial information regarding UBS AM and noted that it was a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of one of the largest financial services firms in the world. It also was noted that UBS AM had approximately $183 billion in assets under management as of March 31, 2019 and was part of the UBS Asset Management Division, which had approximately $824 billion in assets under management worldwide as of March 31, 2019. The board also was cognizant of, and considered, the regulatory and litigation actions and investigations occurring in the past few years involving UBS Group AG, UBS AM and certain of their affiliates.
The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided)
28
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Board approval of investment managment and administration agreement (unaudited)
to the Portfolio under the Investment Management and Administration Agreement.
Management fees and expense ratios—The board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee (the "Contractual Management Fee") payable by the Portfolio to UBS AM in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by UBS AM pursuant to the Investment Management and Administration Agreement. The board also reviewed and considered the fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangement for the Portfolio and considered the actual fee rate (after taking any waivers and reimbursements into account) (the "Actual Management Fee") payable by the Portfolio. The board considered that UBS AM had entered into a fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement agreement with the Portfolio under which UBS AM was contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse the Portfolio so that the total ordinary operating expenses of the Portfolio through November 30, 2019 (excluding certain miscellaneous items) would not exceed a specified limit. The board also considered that the Portfolio had agreed to repay UBS AM for those waived fees and/or reimbursed expenses if the Portfolio can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing its expenses in any of those years to exceed the expense cap. Additionally, the board received and considered information comparing the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee, Actual Management Fee and overall expenses with those of funds in a group of funds selected and provided by Broadridge, an independent provider of investment company data (the "Expense Group").
In connection with its consideration of the Portfolio's management fees, the board also received information on UBS AM with respect to fees paid by institutional or separate accounts; however, in management's view, such fee information was not very relevant to the Portfolio because, among other reasons, separately managed and institutional accounts with a "cash" mandate (a) were not subject to all of the constraints of Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act to which the Portfolio is subject and (b) do not involve the management responsibilities attendant to the operation of a 1940 Act regulated
29
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Board approval of investment managment and administration agreement (unaudited)
fund, and, therefore, were not totally comparable. The board also received information on fees charged to other mutual funds managed by UBS AM.
The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's Actual Management Fee was below the median, and its Contractual Management Fee and total expenses were at the median in the Portfolio's Expense Group for the comparison periods utilized in the Broadridge report. (Below median fees or expenses represent fees or expenses that are lower relative to the median, and above median fees or expenses represent fees or expenses that are higher relative to the median of the funds in the Expense Group.)
Portfolio performance—The board received and considered (a) annualized total return information of the Portfolio compared to other funds (the "Performance Universe") selected by Broadridge over the one-, three-, five-, ten-year and since inception periods ended April 30, 2019, and (b) annualized performance information for each year in the ten-year period ended April 30, 2019. Although the board received information for the ten-year and since inception periods, in its analysis, it generally placed greater emphasis on the one-, three- and five-year periods. The board was provided with a description of the methodology Broadridge used to determine the similarity of the Portfolio with the funds included in its Performance Universe. The board also noted that it had received information throughout the year at periodic intervals with respect to the Portfolio's performance.
The comparative Broadridge information showed that the Portfolio's performance was at or slightly above the Performance Universe median for the five- and ten-year periods and since inception, but slightly below the Performance Universe median for the one- and three-year periods. (Below median performance represents performance that is worse relative to the median, and above median performance represents performance that is better relative to the median.) The board noted that the Portfolio's above median performance included periods during which the Portfolio was managed as a prime money market fund, in contrast to the
30
PACE Government Money Market Investments
Board approval of investment managment and administration agreement (unaudited)
government money market funds in the Portfolio's Performance Universe.
Based on its review and management's explanations, the board concluded that the Portfolio's investment performance was acceptable and that the management fee as proposed by management continued to be appropriate under the circumstances and in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Portfolio under the Investment Management and Administration Agreement.
Advisor profitability—The board received and considered a profitability analysis of UBS AM and its affiliates in providing services to the Portfolio and was provided information on UBS AM's expense allocation methodology. The board also received profitability information with respect to the UBS New York fund complex as a whole. The board observed that the profitability and expense analyses are substantially similar to those used by UBS AM for many internal purposes, and are subject to regular review with respect to how certain revenue and expenses should be allocated. UBS AM's profitability was considered not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Portfolio.
Economies of scale—The board received and considered information from management regarding whether UBS AM realized economies of scale as the Portfolio's assets grew, whether the Portfolio has appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of any further economies of scale for the Portfolio. The board considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to the Portfolio were being passed along to the shareholders. The board noted that the Portfolio's Contractual Management Fee did not contain breakpoints. However, the board also noted that to the extent the Portfolio's assets increase over time, it will realize economies of scale as certain expenses, such as fees for trustees, auditor and legal fees and printing and postage, become a smaller percentage of overall assets.

Board approval of investment managment and administration agreement (unaudited)
In light of UBS AM's profitability data, the Actual Management Fee, the Contractual Management Fee and the current assets of the Portfolio, the board believed that UBS AM's sharing of potential and current economies of scale with the Portfolio was acceptable.
Other benefits to UBS AM—The board considered other benefits received by UBS AM and its affiliates as a result of its relationship with the Portfolio, including the opportunity to offer additional products and services to Portfolio shareholders. In light of the costs of providing investment management, administrative and other services to the Portfolio and UBS AM's ongoing commitment to the Portfolio, the profits and other ancillary benefits that UBS AM and its affiliates received were considered reasonable.
In light of all of the foregoing, the board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the Investment Management and Administration 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 Investment Management and Administration Agreement. The Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process. The board discussed the proposed continuance of the Investment Management and Administration Agreement in private sessions with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of UBS AM were present.

(e) (1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures:
The registrant’s Audit Committee (“audit committee”) has adopted an “Audit Committee Charter (Amended and Restated as of September 14, 2016)” (the “charter”). The charter contains the audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures. Reproduced below is an excerpt from the charter regarding pre-approval policies and procedures:
The [audit] Committee shall:
…
2. Pre-approve (a) all audit and permissible non-audit services(1) to be provided to the Fund and (b) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the Fund’s independent auditors to UBS AM and any Covered Service Providers, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. In carrying out this responsibility, the Committee shall seek periodically from UBS AM and from the independent auditors a list of such audit and permissible non-audit services that can be expected to be rendered to the Fund, UBS AM or any Covered Service Providers by the Fund’s independent auditors, and an estimate of the fees sought to be paid in connection with such services. The Committee has delegated its responsibility to pre-approve any such audit and permissible non-audit services not exceeding $100,000 (excluding reasonable out-of-pocket expenses) on an annual basis to the Chairperson. All such pre-approvals will be reported to the full Committee on a quarterly basis at the Committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting after the pre-approval. The Committee may not delegate to management its responsibility to pre-approve services to be performed by the independent auditor. Requests or applications to provide services that require specific pre-approval by the Committee or the Chairperson will be submitted by both the Fund’s independent auditors and the Fund’s Treasurer or other designated Fund officer and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with SEC rules on auditor independence. From year to year, the Committee shall report to the Board whether this system of pre-approval has been effective and efficient or whether this Charter should be amended to allow for pre-approval pursuant to such policies and procedures as the Committee shall approve, including the delegation of some or all of the Committee’s pre-approval responsibilities to other persons (other than UBS AM or the Fund’s officers).
(1) The Committee will not approve non-audit services that the Committee believes may taint the independence of the auditors. Currently, permissible non-audit services include any professional services (including tax services) that are not prohibited services as described below, provided to the Fund by the independent auditors, other than those provided to the Fund in connection with an audit or a review of the financial statements of the Fund. Permissible non-audit services may not include: (i) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting
records or financial statements of the Fund; (ii) financial information systems design and implementation; (iii) appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions or contribution-in-kind reports; (iv) actuarial services; (v) internal audit outsourcing services; (vi) management functions or human resources; (vii) broker or dealer, investment advisor or investment banking services; (viii) legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit; and (ix) any other service the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board determines, by regulation, is impermissible. Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the aggregate amount of all such permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund, UBS AM and any service providers controlling, controlled by or under common control with UBS AM that provide ongoing services to the Fund (“Covered Service Providers”) constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the independent auditors (during the fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided) by (a) the Fund, (b) UBS AM and (c) any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with UBS AM that provides ongoing services to the Fund during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be approved by the Committee; (ii) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee (or its delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit.
(e) (2) Services approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X:
