Dear PACE Shareholder,
We are pleased to provide you with the semiannual report for the PACE portfolios (the "Portfolios"), comprising the PACE Select Advisors Trust. This report includes summaries of the performance of each Portfolio, as well as commentaries from the investment advisor and subadvisors regarding the events that affected Portfolio performance during the six months ended January 31, 2022 (the "reporting period"). Please note that the opinions of the subadvisors do not necessarily represent those of UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc.
The economic expansion continues
Despite continued headwinds from COVID-19 and its variants, rising inflation, higher interest rates, and supply chain challenges, the US economy continued to expand at a healthy pace overall. A number of factors supported the economy, including continued fiscal spending, monetary policy accommodation by the US Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed") and overall robust job growth. Looking back, second quarter 2021 US annualized gross domestic product ("GDP") was 6.7%. The economy then expanded 2.3% over the third quarter of the year. Finally, the Commerce Department's initial estimate for fourth quarter annualized GDP growth was 6.9%.
While the Fed maintained the federal funds rate in a record-low range between 0.00% and 0.25% in 2021, toward the end of 2021 it signaled a shift in its monetary policy. With inflation remaining elevated and no longer viewed as being "transitory," in November the Fed announced that it would start tapering its monthly purchase of Treasury and agency mortgage-backed securities. At its meeting in December, the central bank further reduced its bond purchases, which would then end in March 2022. Finally, in March 2022, after the reporting period ended the Fed raised interest rates to a range between 0.25% and 0.50% and expects to institute six additional rate hikes by the end of the year. Overseas, the Bank of England raised rates for the first time since the pandemic began in December 2021, and again raised rates in February and March 2022. Elsewhere, the European Central Bank has hinted that they may also raise rates in 2022.
From a global perspective, in its January 2022 World Economic Outlook, the International Monetary Fund ("IMF") said, "The global economy enters 2022 in a weaker position than previously expected... Global growth is expected to moderate from 5.9% in 2021 to 4.4% in 2022—half a percentage point lower for 2022 than in the October 2021 WEO." The IMF expects US GDP growth to be 4.0% in 2021, compared to a 5.6% expansion in 2021. Elsewhere, the IMF expects 2022 GDP growth in the eurozone, U.K. and Japan will be 3.9%, 4.7% and
3
3.3%, respectively. For comparison purposes, the GDP of these economies grew 5.2%, 7.2% and 1.6%, respectively, in 2021. The IMF's projections will likely be downgraded given the repercussions from Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Global equities generate mixed results
The global equity market was volatile and generated mixed returns during the six-months ended January 31, 2022. Supporting the market were the ongoing COVID-19 vaccine rollout, monetary and fiscal policy initiatives and corporate profits that often exceeded expectations. This was offset by periods of risk aversion, especially late in the reporting period, given expectations for aggressive Fed rate hikes. For the six-months ended January 31, 2022, the S&P 500 Index1 gained 3.44%. Outside the US, international developed equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index (net),2 returned -3.43%. Elsewhere, emerging markets equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net),3 fell 4.59%.
The overall fixed income market was weak
The overall global fixed income market generated weak results over the reporting period. As mentioned, with inflation moving higher the Fed and Bank of England, along with a number of emerging market central banks, started removing monetary policy accommodation. In the US, both short- and long-term Treasury yields moved higher (bond yields and prices move in the opposite direction). For the six-month reporting period, the yield on the US 10-year Treasury rose from 1.24% to 1.79%. 10-year government bond yields outside the US generally moved higher as well. The overall US bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Index,4 returned -3.17% during the six-months ended January 31, 2022. Riskier fixed income securities also declined. High yield bonds, as measured by the ICE BofAML US High Yield Cash Pay Constrained Index,5 fell -2.49%. Elsewhere, emerging markets debt, as measured by the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (EMBI Global),6 returned -3.91%.
1 The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged, weighted index composed of 500 widely held common stocks varying in composition and is not available for direct investment. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
2 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.
3 The MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net) is a market capitalization-weighted index composed of different emerging market countries in Europe, Latin America, and the Pacific Basin. Net total return indices reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using a tax rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties. The index is constructed and managed with a view to being fully investable from the perspective of international institutional investors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
4 The Bloomberg US Aggregate Index is an unmanaged broad based index designed to measure the US dollar-denominated, investment-grade, taxable bond market. The index includes bonds from the Treasury, government-related, corporate, mortgage-backed, asset-backed and commercial mortgage-backed sectors. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
5 The ICE BofAML US High Yield Cash Pay Constrained Index is an unmanaged index of publicly placed, non-convertible, coupon-bearing US dollar denominated, below investment grade corporate debt with a term to maturity of at least one year. The index is market capitalization weighted, so that larger bond issuers have a greater effect on the index's return. However, the representation of any single bond issuer is restricted to a maximum of 2% of the total index. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.
6 The J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (EMBI Global) is an unmanaged index which is designed to track total returns for US dollar denominated debt instruments issued by emerging market sovereign and quasi-sovereign entities: Brady bonds, loans and Eurobonds. Investors should note that indices do not reflect the deduction of fees and expenses.

This report is intended to assist investors in understanding how the Portfolios performed during the six-month period ended January 31, 2022. The views expressed in the Advisor's and Subadvisors' comments sections are as of the end of the reporting period, reflect performance results gross of fees and expenses, and are those of the investment advisor and subadvisors. Subadvisors' comments on Portfolios that have more than one subadvisor are reflective of their portion of the Portfolio only. The views and opinions in this report were current as of March 16, 2022. They are not guarantees of future performance or investment results and should not be taken as investment advice. Investment decisions reflect a variety of factors, and the investment advisor and subadvisors reserve the right to change their views about individual securities, sectors and markets at any time. As a result, the views expressed should not be relied upon as a forecast of a Portfolio's future investment intent.

UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund
Performance
The seven-day current yield for the Fund as of January 31, 2022 was 0.01% (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
While the US Federal Reserve Board (the "Fed") maintained its highly accommodative monetary policy, in late 2021 the central bank indicated that it would soon raise the federal funds target rate in an attempt to curb inflation. The Fed also indicated that it would likely begin reducing its sizable balance sheet in 2022.
We tactically adjusted the Portfolio's weighted average maturity ("WAM") throughout the six-month review period. When the reporting period began, the Portfolio had a WAM of 41 days. This was 44 days at the end of the reporting period.
A number of adjustments were made to the Portfolio's sector and issuer positioning during the six-month period. We reduced the Portfolio's exposures to US Treasury obligations and repurchase agreements. Meanwhile, we increased its position in US government and agency obligations. (Repurchase agreements are transactions in which the seller of a security agrees to buy it back at a predetermined time and price or upon demand.)
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.

Performance
For the six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -2.38% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg US Mortgage-Backed Securities Index (the "benchmark") returned -2.36%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 13. 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 outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Overall interest rate strategies were positive for performance. An overall short to US duration contributed to returns as Treasury yields rose. Overall mortgage strategies were additive for returns. Selection within agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS), including a focus on Ginnie Mae securities and higher coupon Fannie Mae mortgages, benefited performance. An allocation to senior securitized credit contributed to results, as these securities remained well supported by strong fundamentals and limited supply. Additionally, exposures to commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) and select collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) added to returns.
Overall, derivative usage was positive for performance. The use of interest rate swaps to manage US interest rate exposure and yield curve positioning detracted from performance, while the use of interest rate options contributed to returns. 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. Options on swaps were primarily used to manage interest rate exposure and currency volatility and were neutral for performance. Total return swaps, used to replicate broad exposure to interest only agency mortgages, while limiting idiosyncratic risk of owning individual bonds, were neutral for performance. Overall, the interest rate swaps were all 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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.14% and 0.98%; Class Y— 0.95% and 0.73%; and Class P— 0.96% and 0.73%. Net expenses reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, if any, pursuant to an agreement that is in effect to cap the expenses. The Portfolio and UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated to waive its management fees and/or reimburse expenses so that the Portfolio's ordinary total operating expenses of each class through November 30, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) 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 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 six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -3.33% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index (the "benchmark") returned -3.17%. (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. This was mainly driven by our duration and yield curve positioning. Over the period, the market started to price in a more hawkish Fed as inflation continued to move higher. For the majority of the period, the Portfolio held a short duration position and had a yield curve flattening bias, both of which were beneficial as yields in the front end and the belly of the curve moved notably higher. As of the end of the period, the Portfolio was closer to neutral versus its benchmark from a duration perspective, but we generally think yields in the belly and long end of the curve have room to move higher. Underweight positioning in investment grade credit and security selection in commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) also contributed to relative performance, as risk assets came under some pressure. This initially occurred given headlines around the Omicron variant in November 2021, as well as in January 2022 as the market started pricing in tighter monetary policy. Security selection in agency mortgages was the only notable detractor. Agency mortgages came under pressure as the Fed announced it would end its asset purchase taper earlier than expected. We continue to hold allocations to high yield credit and securitized assets, but are closer to neutral in agency mortgages and modestly underweight investment grade credit versus its benchmark.
Derivatives were primarily used to adjust the Portfolio's duration and yield 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. Futures were useful to manage our exposure to interest rates by adding duration to or subtracting it from the Portfolio at particular points on the yield curve. 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
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 All Sub-Advisors discuss performance on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected in their sleeves'/sleeve's performance. Alternately, Portfolio performance is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Subadvisor's comments2 – concluded
group of issuers' credit strength. Options on interest 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.
Derivatives are used as a means to manage risk and/or take outright views on interest rates, credit risk and/or foreign exchange positions in the portfolio. It is difficult to isolate the performance of individual derivatives, but they acted as expected and did not have significant impact on performance overall.
Mutual funds are sold by prospectus only.

Special considerations
The Portfolio may be appropriate for long-term investors seeking current income and a reasonable stability of principal. Investors should be able to withstand short-term fluctuations in the fixed income markets. The value of the Portfolio changes every day and can be affected by changes in interest rates, general market conditions, and other political, social and economic developments, as well as specific matters relating to the companies in whose securities the Portfolio invests. It is important to note that an investment in the Portfolio is only one component of a balanced investment plan.

The annualized gross and net expense ratios, respectively, for each class of shares as in the prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.06% and 0.91%; Class Y—0.96% and 0.66%; and Class P—0.85% 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—0.91%; Class Y—0.66%; and Class P—0.66%. 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 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.
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 six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -3.03% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg US Government/Credit Index (the "benchmark") returned -3.50%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 70. 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.
Investment Manager's comments2
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Overall duration strategies were positive for performance. An average short duration versus its benchmark was beneficial as rates rose globally. (Duration measures a portfolio's sensitivity to interest rate changes.) Positions in investment grade credit were additive for results, along with an overweight allocation to high yield corporate bonds. Overall mortgage strategies were beneficial, including select exposure to non-agency mortgage-backed securities. Conversely, an allocation to emerging market bonds and currency strategies detracted from performance, including the portfolio's exposure to a basket of emerging market currencies.
Overall, derivative usage was neutral for performance during the period. We used interest rate swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures, as well as to substitute for physical securities; the use of interest rate swaps during the period was slightly positive to performance. Credit default swaps were used to manage credit exposure in lieu of the direct buying or selling of physical securities. Their use to reduce exposure to the corporate market, as well as to specific corporate issuers, was negative for performance. The use of options to manage mortgage exposure of the portfolio was neutral for performance. The use of options to manage mortgage exposure of the portfolio was neutral for performance. Overall use of currency options was neutral for performance. The use of government futures to adjust interest rate exposures and replicate government bond positions detracted from performance as interest rates rose.
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.00% and 0.91%; Class Y—0.71% and 0.66%; and Class P—0.78% 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—0.90%; Class Y—0.65%; and Class P—0.65%. 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 US Government/Credit Index is an unmanaged index composed of US government, government-related and investment-grade US corporate issues and non-corporate foreign debentures, denominated in US dollars with at least one year to maturity. 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 six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -3.17% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg US Municipal 3-15 Year Blend Index (the "benchmark") returned -3.11%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 100. 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 outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. This was driven by contributions from sector allocation and duration positioning, slightly mitigated by security selection and yield curve positioning.
Over the first five months of the reporting period, covering August to December 2021, the municipal-bond market outperformed Treasuries and corporates, led by strong municipal mutual fund inflows and favorable fundamental credit trends. In January 2022, the last month of the reporting period, the expectation of the Federal Reserve's (Fed) hawkish rate policy and elevated inflation concerns triggered a broad sell-off in the Treasury market and steady outflows from municipal mutual funds, leading to a reversal of the previously strong technical trend in the municipal bond market.
From an asset allocation perspective, an overweight to revenue bonds boosted performance relative to the benchmark. Within the revenue sector, overweight exposure to sectors that offer higher yields was additive, particularly hospital, tobacco, public power and education. However, an overweight exposure to the pre-paid gas sector was a detractor. An underweight allocation to state general obligation debt was additive to relative performance, as that segment lagged in performance. Security selection was a negative overall, driven by Indiana University Health and Kentucky Public Energy pre-paid gas issues, while positions in New York City Transitional Finance Authority and Citizens Property Insurance performed well.
Fiscal conditions for state and local governments kept improving across most municipal sectors, aided by significant federal support and better than expected tax revenues. From a quality perspective, BBB-rated bonds modestly underperformed in January 2022 compared to AAA-rated bonds, reversing course from a strong performance in 2021. The Portfolio's overweight in BBB-rated bonds was positive for performance for the overall 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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Subadvisor's comments2 – concluded
We maintained a slightly short duration position compared to the benchmark, which led to duration outperformance in a rising interest rate environment. Municipal AAA-rated yields increased significantly across the yield curve during the full reporting period. Yield curve distribution of the Portfolio relative to the benchmark had a slight negative impact. This was driven by being overweight to the lagging seven- to 10-year maturity segment, while being underweight to the three- to five-year part of the curve was additive.
No derivatives were used during the reporting period.
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 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—0.93% and 0.82%; Class Y—1.44% and 0.57%; and Class P—0.68% 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) 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 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 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 six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -4.18% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index (the "benchmark") returned -4.82%, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate ex-USD 50% Hedged Index returned -4.18%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 112. 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. This was driven by contributions from duration, sector allocation/ security selection and currency positioning.
Our duration positioning was the largest contributor to performance, contributing over half of the excess returns. The Portfolio was positioned underweight US duration due to our conviction that yields would move higher on the back of strong inflation and a hawkish Federal Reserve (Fed). The Portfolio also benefited from an underweight Germany duration, established in the final quarter of 2021, as a less supportive European Central Bank pushed yields higher.
In terms of sector, the Portfolio was overweight investment grade and high yield corporate bonds through most of the reporting period, although the magnitude of our exposure was relatively smaller due to less compelling valuations. The allocation to investment grade and high yield corporate credit contributed as spreads ground tighter over the period, driven by a strong fundamental backdrop. Our overweights to investment grade and high yield corporate credit were reduced over the period due to headwinds arising from persistent inflation and aggressive measures from the central banks to curb it. An underweight to mortgages, held due to the volatile interest rate environment and less supportive technicals going into the year end as the Fed announced an accelerated tapering of purchases, also contributed to returns.
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Subadvisor's comments2 – concluded
The Portfolio was underweight euro versus the US dollar at the start of the period due to monetary policy divergence and deteriorating current account fundamentals post a spike in gas prices. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Portfolio benefited from an underweight to the Australian dollar due to risk-off tones in the market and overweight US dollar due to expectation of hawkish Fed.
We utilized derivatives over the period for hedging and efficient portfolio management purposes. The main types of financial derivative contracts we use are bond futures and foreign exchange currency forwards contracts. This allows us to implement our strategy, including hedging or implementing currency overlay. Overall, the use of derivatives was beneficial to our portfolio management process.
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 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.27% and 1.03%; Class Y—1.05% and 0.87%; and Class P—1.08% 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.03%; Class Y—0.87%; and Class P—0.84%. 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 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.
5 The Bloomberg 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.
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 six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -2.95% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the ICE BofA Global High Yield Index (hedged in USD) (the "benchmark") returned -2.47%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 127. 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 outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Positive security selection and overweights in the energy—exploration & production, specialty retail, oil field equipment & services, and gaming sectors contributed the most to returns. The Portfolio's relative performance was hurt the most by an overweight and security selection in real estate development & management and underweights and security selection in the banking and food & drug retailers sectors. From a ratings perspective, security selection and an overweight in B-rated issuers was the biggest contributor to performance. Additionally, an overweight to CCC-rated issuers contributed to results. Non-rated and BB-rated issuers in the Portfolio were the largest detractors from returns.
Looking ahead, we continue to believe that economic growth will remain robust and earnings should remain strong. The world is learning to live with COVID-19, and consumers are ready to return to preferred activities. We believe that this change in attitude will address the supply side of the supply/demand equation, helping to normalize the supply chain and reduce the staffing shortages plaguing many industries. As monetary tightening measures target demand-driven inflationary forces and take the froth off certain overvalued markets, the US Federal Reserve can avoid "shock and awe" tactics, focusing instead on incremental policy adjustments. Recent high yield market weakness has particularly impacted the higher quality end of the credit spectrum. While volatility may persist as investors respond to changing inflation data and monetary policy, many solid BB-rated issuers have seen their bonds decline, with no change in default expectations, creating the opportunity to find bargains in this part of the market.

Objective:
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Subadvisor's comments2 – concluded
percolate in the background with Russia, China, and Iran all presenting challenges. Finally, the transition to cleaner energy is at an interesting phase where the demand and supply are changing, but not in a well-coordinated way. This may potentially lead to volatility for both consumers and suppliers. Despite the risks, we believe high yield can continue to generate an attractive risk-adjusted return.
Currency forwards were used during the reporting period to hedge the currency exposure of the Portfolio into US dollars. The use of currency forwards had a slightly negative impact on the Portfolio's performance.

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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.25% and 1.06%; Class Y—0.98% and 0.88%; Class P—1.11% and 0.91%; and P2—1.11% and 0.62%. 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) 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 Portfolio and UBS AM have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated through November 30, 2022 with respect to Class P2 to waive (i) its management fees in an amount equal to the portion of the management fees UBS AM retains after payment by UBS AM of any sub-advisory fees, and (ii) its administrative services fees in an amount equal to the portion of the administrative services fees UBS AM retains after payment by UBS AM of any sub-administration fees and charges paid to third parties. These fee waiver/ expense reimbursement agreements 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, if applicable.
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 BofA 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 Inception date of Class P2 of PACE High Yield Investments is September 15, 2021.
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
For the six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 4.58% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 1000 Value Index (the "benchmark") returned 3.61%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 158. 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.
Investment Manager's comments2
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection was the primary contributor and generally positive across most sectors, with the exception of Materials, Consumer Staples and Utilities. Stock selection within the Industrials and Consumer Discretionary sectors was particularly strong. Sector allocation was an additional tailwind as the portfolio was underweight Communication Services. This was offset by an underweight to Energy, which was the strongest sector.
Broadly, the value rotation, as investors focused on recovery from the COVID shut down as well as the impact of inflation and rising interest rates, was beneficial for the Portfolio given underlying positioning. The Portfolio's bias to earnings yield was rewarded. The cash allocation was a modest drag on relative performance given the positive equity market.
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.32% and 1.32%; Class Y—1.08% and 1.08%; and Class P—1.07% and 1.07%. 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.14%; Class Y—0.89%; and Class P—0.89%. 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 six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -3.94% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the "benchmark") returned -0.06%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 165. 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.
Investment Manager's comments2
The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Both sector allocation and stock selection were negative. Stock selection detracted due to underperformance within Information Technology, Communication Services, and Consumer Discretionary. However, stock selection in Financials partially offset negative contributions from the aforementioned sectors. In terms of sector allocation, the overweight to Health Care and Communication Services as well as the underweight to the Information Technology sector detracted.
Risk factors were modestly supportive of performance for the period. The Portfolio benefitted from its exposure to value characteristics, such as long-term reversal, which is the tendency of securities with high returns over the past three to five years to underperform relative to securities with low returns during the same period. The Russell 1000 Growth Index was a challenging benchmark to outperform given the level of concentration and narrowness of the market. Five of the top ten individual detractors were companies that were not held or held at an underweight versus the benchmark.
Please note that during this period, Jackson Square and Mar Vista were terminated to fund Polen and GQG in an effort to improve risk-adjusted performance for the Fund.
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level 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 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.13% and 1.13%; Class Y—0.87% and 0.87%; and Class P—0.88% 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 of each class through November 30, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.14%; Class Y—0.89%; and Class P—0.89%. 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 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.

Performance
For the six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -1.27% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 2500 Value Index (the "benchmark") returned 0.34%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 172. 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.
Investment Manager's comments2
The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection was the primary detractor to relative returns. Stock selection within Industrials, Energy and Information Technology sectors was most challenging while stock selection within Financials and Health Care had a positive impact. Sector allocation was an additional headwind relative to the benchmark, particularly the overweight to the Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary sectors, as these sectors lagged the benchmark during this time period.
Style factors were modestly supportive during the period as liquidity and leverage were rewarded but partially offset by value characteristics such as book to price and earnings yield as well as size.
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level 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 "value equity" strategy in which the subadvisor targets smaller capitalization companies with sustainable business models selling below their perceived value.
• 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.20% and 1.20%; Class Y—1.00% and 1.00%; Class P—1.02% and 1.02%; and P2—1.02% and 0.58%. 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.29%; Class Y—1.04%; and Class P—1.04%. 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 Portfolio and UBS AM have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated through November 30, 2022 with respect to Class P2 to waive (i) its management fees in an amount equal to the portion of the management fees UBS AM retains after payment by UBS AM of any sub-advisory fees, and (ii) its administrative services fees in an amount equal to the portion of the administrative services fees UBS AM retains after payment by UBS AM of any sub-administration fees and charges paid to third parties. These fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreements 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, if applicable.
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.
5 Inception date of Class P2 of PACE Small/Medium Co Value Equity Investments is September 15, 2021.
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 Growth Equity Investments
Performance
For the six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -12.39% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the Russell 2500 Growth Index (the "benchmark") returned -14.24%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 179. 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.
Investment Manager's comments2
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection was the main contributor for relative returns primarily due to strong performance in Information Technology. Stock selection in Health Care also contributed but was offset by challenging performance in Consumer Discretionary. Sector allocation was a modest headwind relative to the benchmark due to an underweight to Real Estate.
Risk factors were supportive of performance for the period. The Portfolio received a significant benefit from its momentum, liquidity, and value positioning. Cash was additive in a very challenging period for 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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

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. 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.19% and 1.19%; Class Y—2.20% and 1.08%; Class P—1.03% and 1.03% and P2—1.03% and 0.61%. 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.33%; Class Y—1.08%; and Class P—1.08%. 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 Portfolio and UBS AM have entered into a written fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreement pursuant to which UBS AM is contractually obligated through November 30, 2022 with respect to Class P2 to waive (i) its management fees in an amount equal to the portion of the management fees UBS AM retains after payment by UBS AM of any sub-advisory fees, and (ii) its administrative services fees in an amount equal to the portion of the administrative services fees UBS AM retains after payment by UBS AM of any sub-administration fees and charges paid to third parties. These fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreements 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, if applicable.
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.
5 Inception date of Class P2 of PACE Small/Medium Co Growth Equity Investments is September 15, 2021.
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 six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned 0.25% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the MSCI EAFE Index (net) (the "benchmark") returned -3.43%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 189. 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.
Investment Manager's comments2
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Stock selection was the primary contributor, particularly within Information Technology, Financials, and Communication Services. Selection was positive across a majority of sectors. Sector allocation also contributed to relative returns. The Portfolio's overweight to Energy was additive during the period, but partially offset by the Portfolio's overweight to Information Technology.
Stock selection from a country perspective was also positive given results in Japan, the United Kingdom, and Singapore. Country allocation was not a significant driver of return. The cash allocation was modestly positive in a negative period for the benchmark.
Style contributed to benchmark relative results in the period. The Portfolio's value exposure, particularly earnings yield, and liquidity were additive, although the residual volatility tilt acted as a headwind.
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.64% and 1.58%; Class Y—1.36% and 1.33%; and Class P—1.36% and 1.33%. 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.25%; Class Y—1.00%; and Class P—1.00%. 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.

Performance
For the six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -3.90% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (net) (the "benchmark") returned -4.59%. (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.
Investment Manager's comments2
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark during the reporting period. Sector allocation was the primary driver of relative returns while stock selection was modestly negative. Sector allocation was beneficial relative to the benchmark due to the underweight to Health Care, the weakest sector during the reporting period, as well as the overweight to Financials. Stock selection was negative due to poor selection within Communication Services and Financials but partly offset by strong selection in Energy and Materials.
From a country perspective, stock selection was strong due to positive results in China and Brazil, which was partially offset by negative stock selection in India. Country allocation was negative due to the underweight to Taiwan and Saudi Arabia. The cash allocation was a modest tailwind for performance given the negative equity market return.
Style impact during the period was negative due to factors such as liquidity and residual volatility. Sub-advisors with more of a value or cyclical orientation tended to outperform in the period while growth orientation was more challenged. Energy was the top performing sector in the period.
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level 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 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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.66% and 1.45%; Class Y—1.40% and 1.20%; and Class P—1.44% 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed Class A—1.45%; Class Y—1.20%; and Class P—1.20%. The Portfolio has agreed to repay UBS AM for any waived fees/reimbursed expenses to the extent that it can do so over the following three fiscal years without causing the Portfolio's expenses in any of those three years to exceed 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.

PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments
Performance
For the six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -1.97% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Index (the "benchmark") returned -0.56%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 211. 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. The Portfolio's holdings of securities within the integrated telecommunications services industry detracted from performance. Here, owning shares of wireless telecommunications firm Cellnex Telecom (Spain) and telecommunication towers operator Helios Towers dampened our returns, and we eliminated both positions after the reporting period. Stock selection within the residential REITs industry also weighed on results. However, there were no individual securities within this industry that were among the Portfolio's top detractors over the period. Elsewhere, not owning both self-storage facility operator Public Storage and industrial and medical property manager Duke Realty, and the timing of our position in office and retail space developer Mapletree Commercial Trust (Singapore), held back performance. We sold our position in Mapletree Commercial Trust after the period. Overweighting shares of logistics property developer Mapletree Logistics Trust (Singapore) and residential property developers LEG Immobilien (Germany), Advance Residence Investment (Japan) also hindered our performance. Lastly, health care services provider Encompass Health detracted from returns and we eliminated the position after the reporting period.
Securities in other industries that were among the Portfolio's top contributors included overweight positions in logistics property developer Prologis, self-storage property operator Extra Space Storage, data center firm CoreSite Realty (acquired by American Tower November 15, 2021), warehouse and logistics property manager Granite Real Estate Investment Trust (Canada), shopping center developer Brixmor Property Group, storage facility operator National Storage REIT, and multi-family community property developer AvalonBay Communities. An underweight in co-location and data center company Equinix, holding shares of forest product and timberland company Weyerhaeuser, and not owning shares of temperature-controlled warehouse
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 when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Objective:
Total Return
Investment process:
The main strategies of the subadvisors include:
• a strategy that involves achieving total returns by investing in a diversified portfolio of global securities of companies primarily in the real estate industry.
• a strategy that focuses on investments in equity REITs as well as similar entities formed under the laws of non-US countries, and the subadvisor may also invest in mortgage REITs, hybrid REITs and other US and foreign real estate-related investments, including emerging market real estate-related investments.

Subadvisor's comments – concluded
operator Americold Realty Trust also supported relative results. We eliminated our position in Weyerhaeuser after the reporting period.
The Portfolio did not utilize derivatives during the reporting period.
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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—1.62% and 1.45% and Class P—1.65% 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) 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.

Performance
For the six-months ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio's Class P shares returned -0.42% before the deduction of the maximum PACE Select program fee.1 In comparison, the FTSE Three-Month US Treasury Bill Index (the "benchmark") returned 0.02%, the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index returned -4.82%, the MSCI World Index (net) returned 0.26%, the HFRI Fund of Funds Composite Index returned -1.02%. (Returns for all share classes over various time periods are shown in the "Performance at a glance" table on page 219. 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.
Investment Manager's comments2,3
(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 the benchmark during the reporting period. This was primarily driven by allocations to equity hedged strategies. Specifically, tilts toward certain valuation metrics, such as sales-to-price, forward earnings-to-price and historical earnings-to-price were the top drivers of performance. In addition, tilts toward earnings estimate revisions also helped during the period. From a sector perspective, positioning in consumer and industrial sectors produced the most positive results. Negatively impacting results was an emphasis on quality, as tilts to return-on-assets and profit margin were challenged and detracted from performance. An emphasis on low beta stocks also positively impacted performance, as low beta securities outperformed high beta securities. (Beta is a measure of volatility or risk relative to the market as a whole.) Meanwhile, portfolio hedges detracted from returns, providing a partial offset to the positive return drivers. The largest detractors included mega-cap names in technology and stocks in the communication sector which rallied over the period.
1 Class P shares held through the PACE Select Advisors Program are subject to a maximum Program fee of 2.50%, which, if included, would have reduced performance. Class P shares held through other advisory programs also may be subject to a program fee, which, if included, would have reduced performance.
2 A long position in a security is implemented by purchasing a security with the expectation that it will rise in value. A short position in a security may be taken when an investor believes that a security, or investment, is overpriced and expects it to fall in value. A short position is typically implemented by first borrowing the investment and then selling it. The investor then seeks to buy the investment at a later date ideally at a lower price to replace the security that had been borrowed, thereby earning a profit on the transaction.
3 Performance is discussed on a gross-of-fees basis—meaning that no fees or expenses are reflected when discussed at the level of a subadvisor's sleeve (or subadvisors' sleeves, if applicable). Alternatively, performance at the overall Portfolio level is shown net of fees, which does factor in fees and expenses associated with the Portfolio.

Investment Manager's comments – concluded
The largest offset to performance by category was an allocation to a tactical currency strategy that primarily functions as a diversifier within the overall portfolio. Performance for the period was driven by the fact that currency markets were more heavily influenced by COVID-19 risks than underlying fundamentals. The strategy's quantitative models, particularly the inflation-related and fair value models, drove results. The inflation-related models led the strategy to be long the Canadian dollar and short the Japanese yen. Unfortunately, the yen strengthened as the Bank of Japan reiterated prolonged accommodation and the Canadian dollar weakened as the Bank of Canada moved forward its interest rate guidance. The strategy's fair value models drove the strategy to be long the euro and Swedish krona. Both currencies weakened over the period on dovishness from the European Central Bank and Riksbank, respectively.
Derivatives were used in the Portfolio to gain economic exposure and for hedging or risk management purposes across currencies, fixed income and equity markets. The derivatives utilized over the period primarily included currency forwards (both deliverable and non-deliverable), options, futures, forwards and swaps.

PACE Alternative Strategies Investments
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 "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 "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.
• A "relative value strategy" that seeks to generate risk adjusted returns that are uncorrelated to the equity or credit markets by isolating opportunities in the convertible bond, high yield and listed options markets.
• A "merger arbitrage strategy" that seeks to achieve absolute returns utilizing a rule-based approach to investing.
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 prospectuses dated November 26, 2021 were as follows: Class A—3.01% and 2.89%; Class Y—2.76% and 2.65%; and Class P—2.76% and 2.65%. 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, 2022 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 agreement also provides that 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, 2022 (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, trustee elections, as well as other matters related to shareholder meetings (unless specifically agreed by UBS AM) and extraordinary expenses) would not exceed 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. 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 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 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, August 1, 2021 to January 31, 2022.
Actual expenses (unaudited)
The first line for each class of shares in the table below for each Portfolio provides information about its actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over a period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for each class of shares for each respective Portfolio under the heading entitled "Expenses paid during period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during the period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes (unaudited)
The second line for each class of shares in the table below for each Portfolio provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on that Portfolio's actual expense ratios for each class of shares and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not that Portfolio's actual return for each class of shares. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing Portfolio costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs (as applicable), such as sales charges (loads), or program fees. Therefore, the second line in the table for each class of shares for each Portfolio is useful in comparing ongoing Portfolio costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs or program fees were included, your costs would have been higher.

1 Amount represents less than $0.0005 or $(0.0005) per share.
2 Total investment return is calculated assuming a $10,000 investment on the first day of each period reported, reinvestment of all dividends and other distributions, if any, at net asset value on the payable dates, and a sale at net asset value on the last day of each period reported. The figures do not include program fees; results would be lower if these fees were included. The investment return for period of less than one year has not been annualized. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions.

Total investment return for the period of less than one year has not been annualized. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.

Class P2 shares are only available for purchase by a limited group of investors, including on behalf of certain investors of a fee-based program or other advisory programs in which UBS AM exercises investment discretion and for which such investors pay UBS AM a fee, or pay an affiliate of UBS AM a fee, and UBS AM receives compensation, to participate in such programs; on behalf of institutional clients with which UBS AM or its affiliates has signed a separate investment management agreement, pursuant to which such investors pay an advisory fee; and by other registered investment companies managed by UBS AM that pay a management fee at the investing/acquiring fund level.
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.
UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund 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 Portfolios' financial statements are prepared in accordance with US GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In January 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards ("FASB") Update No. 2021-01 ("ASU 2021-01"), "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)". ASU 2021-01 is an update of ASU 2020-04, which is in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and particularly the risk of cessation of LIBOR, regulators have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 is elective and applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU 2021-01 update clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments in this update become effective no later than December 31, 2022, for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of the additional requirements and its impact on the Funds' 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 Funds 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.
The ability of the issuers of debt securities held by the Portfolios' to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments particular to a specific industry, country, state or region.
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.
Many financial instruments, financings or other transactions to which a Portfolio may be a party use or may use a floating rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). LIBOR is widely used in financial markets. In July 2017, the United Kingdom's financial regulatory body announced that after 2021 it will cease its active encouragement of banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR. That announcement suggests that LIBOR may
300
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
cease to be published or utilized after that time. Various financial industry groups have begun planning for that transition, but the effect of the transition process and its ultimate success cannot yet be determined. The transition process may lead to increased volatility and illiquidity in markets for instruments the terms of which are based on LIBOR. It could also lead to a reduction in the value of some LIBOR-based investments and reduce the effectiveness of new hedges placed against existing LIBOR-based investments. Since the usefulness of LIBOR as a benchmark could deteriorate during the transition period, these effects could occur prior to the end of 2021. The willingness and ability of issuers to include enhanced provisions in new and existing contracts or instruments also remains uncertain. Any of these factors may adversely affect the Portfolio's performance or NAV. On November 30, 2020, the administrator of LIBOR announced a delay in the phase out of a majority of the U.S. dollar LIBOR publications until June 30 , 2023, with the remainder of LIBOR publications to still end at the end of 2021.
Certain impacts to public health conditions particular to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak that occurred may have a significant negative impact on the operations and profitability of the issuers of the Portfolios' investments. The extent of the impact to the financial performance of the Portfolio will depend on future developments, including (i) the duration and spread of the outbreak, (ii) the restrictions and advisories, (iii) the effects on the financial markets, and (iv) the effects on the economy overall, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
At January 31, 2022, PACE Global Fixed Income Investments, PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments, PACE International Equity Investments, PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments had exposure to Russian or Ukrainian securities. Such exposure was limited to less than 1% of each such Fund's assets as of such date, with the exception of PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments. PACE International Emerging Markets Equity Investments had 3.8% of its assets in such securities as of January 31, 2022, which holdings were subsequently sold or declined in value to represent under 1% of that Fund's assets. The escalating conflict between Ukraine and the Russian Federation, especially after Russia invaded Ukraine in March 2022, has resulted in significant volatility and uncertainty in financial markets. NATO, EU and G7 member countries have imposed severe and coordinated sanctions against Russia. Restrictive measures have also been imposed by Russia, and some securities traded in that country have materially declined in value and/or may no longer be tradable. These actions have resulted in significant disruptions to investing activities and businesses with operations in Russia. The longer-term impact to geopolitical norms, supply chains and investment valuations is uncertain.
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"), UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund 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", UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund 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 UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund) 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
301
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
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.
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.
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 Portfolio's 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
302
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
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 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 value 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
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 multi-
303
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
ple 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.
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.
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
304
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
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.
Real estate investment trusts—Certain 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 Portfolios 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 Portfolios 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. 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 Portfolios 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.
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.
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 cus-
305
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
todian containing liquid securities having a value not less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest, of the reverse repurchase agreement.
During the period ended January 31, 2022, there were no outstanding reverse repurchase agreements.
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 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, U.S. 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.
Short sales "against the box"—Each Portfolio (other than UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund 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 .
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 .
Treasury Inflation Protected Securities—The Portfolios may purchase Treasury inflation protected securities ("TIPS") which are debt securities issued by the US 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.
Treasury roll transactions—Certain Portfolios may enter into treasury roll transactions. In a treasury roll transaction, a Portfolio sells a Treasury security to a counterparty with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase the same security at an agreed upon price and date. The Portfolio receives cash from the sale of the Treasury security to use for other investment purposes. For US GAAP purposes, a treasury roll transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and not as a purchase and sale. The difference between the sale price and repurchase price represents net interest income or net interest expense reflective of an agreed upon rate between the Portfolio and the counterparty over the term of the borrowing. The Portfolio will benefit from the transaction if the income earned on the investment purchased with the cash received in the treasury roll transaction exceeds the interest expense incurred by the Portfolio. If the interest expense exceeds the income earned, the Portfolio's net investment income and dividends to shareholders may be adversely impacted.
306
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
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 period ended January 31, 2022, treasury roll transactions were not utilized.
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 period ended January 31, 2022, PACE Large Co Value Equity Investments and PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments did not engage in uncovered short sale transactions.
Unfunded loan commitments—A Portfolio may enter into unfunded loan commitments, which are contractual obligations for future funding at the option of the borrower. Unfunded loan commitments represent a future obligation, in full, even though a percentage of the committed amount may not be utilized by the borrower. Unfunded loan commitments, and the obligation for future funding, are recorded as a liability on the Statement of assets and liabilities at par value at the time the commitment is entered into. Purchases of unfunded loan commitments may have a similar effect on the Portfolio's NAV as if the Portfolio had created a degree of leverage in the portfolio. Market risk exists with these commitments to the same extent as if the securities were owned on a settled basis. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the unfunded loan commitments.
Under the terms of the contract, the Portfolio has the option to assign (sell) all or portion of the unfunded loan commitment. Upon the completion of such assignment, the Portfolio is released from its rights and obligations pertaining to the portion of the unfunded loan commitment assigned. When the Portfolio sells a portion of an unfunded loan commitment, the portion sold is removed from the Portfolio of investments and the unsettled amount is reflected as unfunded loan commitments sold on the Statement of assets and liabilities until settlement date. Once settled, the portion of the unfunded loan commitment assigned is relieved from the Portfolio's unfunded loan commitments liability.

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 (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 Portfolios pay 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 Portfolio trades and holds certain fair valued derivative contracts that constitute guarantees. Such contracts include written put options, where the Portfolio will be obligated to purchase securities at specified prices (i.e. the options are exercised by the counterparties). It also includes written swaptions, where the Portfolio will 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 January 31, 2022, PACE Mortgage-Backed Securities Fixed Income Investments, PACE Strategic Fixed Income Investments and PACE Alternative Strategies Investments had maximum payout amounts of approximately $10,435,280,000, $1,385,580 and $22,950,424 respectively, relating to written put option contracts.
Futures contracts—Certain Portfolios may purchase or sell futures contracts to increase or reduce their exposure to an asset class without purchasing or selling the underlying securities, either as a hedge or to enhance income or real-

ized 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 Portfolio 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. 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.
Futures contracts, if any, are shown as fund holdings within the Portfolio of investments. Variation margin, if applicable, is shown in Variation margin receivable or payable on futures contracts within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Swap agreements—Certain Portfolios may engage in swap agreements, including, but not limited to, interest rate, credit default, total return. 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.
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 section "Credit default swap agreements on corporate issues and credit indices—sell protection" in the Portfolio 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
310
PACE Select Advisors Trust
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
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.
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.
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 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 period ended January 31, 2022.
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

Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
that are in a net liability position that contain these triggers can be found in the Portfolio's Portfolio of investments. The aggregate fair value of assets that are already posted as collateral as of January 31, 2022 is reflected in the Statement of assets and liabilities.
At January 31, 2022, the Portfolio had the following derivatives categorized by underlying risk:

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 their 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.
At January 31, 2022, derivative assets and liabilities (by type) on a gross basis and derivatives subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement ("MNA") or similar were as follows:

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, US 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, US 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, US 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 of investments. State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as the Portfolios' lending agent.
In addition, 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.

Bank line of credit
With the exception of UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund, 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

Additional information regarding compensation to affiliate of a former board member
During his term of service on the Board through his retirement from the Board effective December 31, 2021, Professor Meyer Feldberg had also served as a senior advisor to Morgan Stanley, a financial services firm with which the Portfolios may conduct transactions, which resulted in him being an interested trustee of the Trust.

Portfolio transactions are executed through Morgan Stanley based on that firm's ability to provide best execution of the transactions.

Federal tax status
Each of the Portfolios intends to distribute substantially all of its income and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, net realized capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, each Portfolio intends not to be subject to a federal excise tax.
The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2021 was as follows:
Portfolio | | Tax-exempt income | | Ordinary income | | Long term realized capital gains | | Return of capital | |

Qualified late year losses are deemed to arise on the first business day of a Portfolio's next taxable year. For the year ended July 31, 2021, there were no qualified late year losses deferred.
At July 31, 2021, the effect of permanent "book/tax" reclassifications resulted in increases and decreases to components of the Portfolios' net assets as follows:
Portfolio | | Distributable earnings (accumulated losses) | | Beneficial interest | |
PACE International Equity Investments | | $ | 545,332 | | | $ | (545,332 | ) | |
PACE Global Real Estate Securities Investments | | | 8 | | | | (8 | ) | |
These differences are primarily due to net operating losses and distributions in excess of net investment income.

November 2021 Board Meeting
GQG Partners LLC ("GQG")
Background—At a meeting of the board of PACE Select Advisors Trust (the "Trust") on November 16-17, 2021, the members of the board, including the trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust (the "Independent Trustees") as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, considered and approved the proposed sub-advisory agreement between UBS Asset Management (Americas) Inc. ("UBS AM") and GQG (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement") with respect to PACE Large Co Growth Equity Investments (the "Portfolio"). Management discussed with the board its proposal to terminate Mar Vista Capital Management, LLC as sub-advisor and to reallocate a portion of the resulting difference in proposed target allocations to GQG (with the remaining difference in proposed target allocations to be reallocated to a different sub-advisor). In considering the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the board was able to draw on its knowledge of the Trust, its portfolios and UBS AM. The board recognized its familiarity with UBS AM and the investment management and sub-advisory agreements for this and the other portfolios of the Trust, including the extensive materials the board had previously reviewed in connection with the annual reconsideration of the contracts for the portfolios. The board also received a memorandum from UBS AM discussing UBS AM's reasons for recommending GQG as a sub-advisor to the Portfolio.
In its consideration of the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement, the board considered the following factors:
Nature, extent and quality of the services under the Sub-Advisory Agreement—The board's evaluation of the services to be provided by GQG to the Portfolio took into account the board's knowledge and familiarity gained as board members of funds in the UBS New York fund complex, including the Trust and its portfolios. It reviewed the purposes and investment objective of the Portfolio and UBS AM's overall plan to meet the Portfolio's stated purposes and objective. The board considered management's reasons for recommending the appointment of GQG as a sub-advisor to the Portfolio, including its "due diligence" concerning GQG and its belief that GQG's US equity strategy would benefit the Portfolio by, among other reasons, improving the Portfolio's risk-adjusted returns over full business cycles. The board also received materials from GQG detailing its investment philosophy and spoke with representatives of GQG, who discussed with the board that investment philosophy and process and the backgrounds and qualifications of the portfolio management team. The board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services expected to be provided to the Portfolio under the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Sub-advisory fee—The board reviewed and considered the proposed contractual sub-advisory fee to be payable by UBS AM to GQG in light of the nature, extent and quality of the sub-advisory services anticipated to be provided by GQG. The board noted that the proposed contractual sub-advisory fee, along with the other sub-advisory changes proposed by UBS AM, would result in an increase in the annualized sub-advisory fees paid by UBS AM with respect to the Portfolio. The board determined that the proposed sub-advisory fee was reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services proposed to be provided to the Portfolio under the Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Fund performance—The board received and considered performance information for the strategy provided by GQG. The board also noted that, as GQG would be a new sub-advisor to the Portfolio, the current performance of the Portfolio was not a significant factor in the consideration of the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Advisor profitability—Profitability of GQG or its affiliates or UBS AM or its affiliates in providing services to the Portfolio was not a significant factor considered by the board, as the sub-advisory fee would be paid by UBS AM out of the management fee paid to it by the Portfolio, and not by the Portfolio.

Economies of scale—The board noted that, as the sub-advisory fee for the Portfolio would be paid by UBS AM, not by the Portfolio, consideration of economies of scale with respect specifically to the sub-advisory fee was not relevant.
Other benefits to GQG—The board was informed by management that GQG's relationship with the Portfolio would be limited to its provision of sub-advisory services to the Portfolio and that therefore management believed that GQG would not receive tangible ancillary benefits as a result of its relationship with the Portfolio, with the exception of possible benefits from soft dollars (e.g., research credits related to transaction commissions) for the Portfolio (which would also potentially benefit the Portfolio). The board recognized that GQG could receive intangible benefits from its association with the Portfolio, such as increased name recognition or publicity from being selected as a sub-advisor to the Portfolio after an extensive review process. Similarly, the Portfolio could benefit from having a sub-advisor with an established or well-regarded reputation.
In light of all of the foregoing, the board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the proposed Sub-Advisory 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 Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process.

Semiannual Report | January 31, 2022
UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund
March 16, 2022
Dear Shareholder,
We present you with the semiannual report for UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund (the "Fund" or "Portfolio") for the 6 months ended January 31, 2022 (the "reporting period").
Performance
The seven-day current yield for the Fund as of January 31, 2022 was 0.01% (after fee waivers/expense reimbursements).1 For more information on the Fund's performance, refer to "Yields and characteristics at a glance" on page 5. 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. (This also applies with respect to certain other advisory programs where the Portfolio's shares are available.)
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.

Advisor's Comments
While the US Federal Reserve (the "Fed") maintained its highly accommodative monetary policy, in late 2021 the central bank indicated that it would soon raise the federal funds target rate in an attempt to curb inflation. The Fed also indicated that it would likely begin reducing its sizable balance sheet in 2022.
We tactically adjusted the Portfolio's weighted average maturity ("WAM") throughout the six-month review period. When the reporting period began, the Portfolio had a WAM of 41 days. This was 44 days at the end of the reporting period.
A number of adjustments were made to the Portfolio's sector and issuer positioning during the six-month period. We reduced the Portfolio's exposure to US Treasury obligations and repurchase agreements. Meanwhile, we increased its position in US government and agency obligations. (Repurchase agreements are transactions in which the seller of a security agrees to buy it back at a predetermined time and price or upon demand.) We thank you for your continued support and welcome any comments or questions you may have. For any additional information on the UBS family of funds*, please contact your financial advisor, or visit us at www.ubs.com/am-us.
Sincerely,

Understanding your Portfolio's expenses (unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) on-going program fees; and (2) ongoing Portfolio costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example below is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, August 1, 2021 to January 31, 2022.
Actual expenses
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over a period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading "Expenses paid during period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate your actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

Understanding your Portfolio's expenses (unaudited) (concluded)
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing Portfolio costs only and do not reflect any program fees. Therefore, the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing Portfolio costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if program fees were included, your costs would have been higher.
| | Beginning account value August 1, 2021 | | Ending account value January 31, 2022 | | Expenses paid during period1 08/01/21 to 01/31/22 | | Expense ratio during the period | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,000.10 | | | $ | 0.25 | | | | 0.05 | % | |
Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) | | | 1,000.00 | | | | 1,024.95 | | | | 0.26 | | | | 0.05 | | |
1 Expenses are equal to the Portfolio's annualized net expense ratios, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184 divided by 365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Organization and significant accounting policies
UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund (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.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") is the exclusive reference of authoritative US generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP") recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative US GAAP for SEC registrants. The Portfolios' financial statements are prepared in accordance with US GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In January 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards ("FASB") Update No. 2021-01 ("ASU 2021-01"), "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)". ASU 2021-01 is an update of ASU 2020-04, which is in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and particularly the risk of cessation of LIBOR, regulators have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 is elective and applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU 2021-01 update clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments in this update become effective no later than December 31, 2022, for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of the additional requirements and its impact on the Funds' 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
19
UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
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", the Portfolio 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.
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.
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
20
UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
requirements that permit the imposition of a liquidity fee and/or 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 their 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 the 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 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 the 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)
21
UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
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 repurchase agreements only in transactions with counterparties believed by UBS AM and the applicable subadvisor 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 the 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 from investment income and distributions from 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.
Concentration of risk—The ability of the issuers of debt securities held by the Portfolio to meet their obligations may be affected by
22
UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
economic and political developments particular to a specific industry, country, state or region.
Many financial instruments, financings or other transactions to which a Portfolio may be a party use or may use a floating rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). LIBOR is widely used in financial markets. In July 2017, the United Kingdom's financial regulatory body announced that after 2021 it will cease its active encouragement of banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR. That announcement suggests that LIBOR may cease to be published or utilized after that time. Various financial industry groups have begun planning for that transition, but the effect of the transition process and its ultimate success cannot yet be determined. The transition process may lead to increased volatility and illiquidity in markets for instruments the terms of which are based on LIBOR. It could also lead to a reduction in the value of some LIBOR-based investments and reduce the effectiveness of new hedges placed against existing LIBOR-based investments. Since the usefulness of LIBOR as a benchmark could deteriorate during the transition period, these effects could occur prior to the end of 2021. The willingness and ability of issuers to include enhanced provisions in new and existing contracts or instruments also remains uncertain. Any of these factors may adversely affect the Portfolio's performance or NAV. On November 30, 2020, the administrator of LIBOR announced a delay in the phase out of a majority of the U.S. dollar LIBOR publications until June 30, 2023, with the remainder of LIBOR publications to still end at the end of 2021.
Certain impacts to public health conditions particular to the coronavirus "COVID-19" outbreak that occurred may have a significant negative impact on the operations and profitability of the issuers of the Portfolios' investments. The extent of the impact to the financial performance of the Funds will depend on future developments, including (i) the duration and spread of the outbreak, (ii) the restrictions and advisories, (iii) the effects on the financial markets, and (iv) the effects on the economy overall, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

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 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 0.25% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. At January 31, 2022, UBS AM is owed $58,121 to the Portfolio, representing investment management and administration fees.
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, 2022 at a level not to exceed 0.60%. For the period ended January 31, 2022, UBS AM waived $75,778 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 January 31, 2022, UBS AM owed the Fund $12,045 in fee waivers.
At January 31, 2022, 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, 2022 | | Expires July 31, 2023 | | Expires July 31, 2024 | | Expires July 31, 2025 | |
$ | 949,031 | | | $ | 404,306 | | | $ | 330,288 | | | $ | 138,659 | | | $ | 75,778 | | |
No amount was repaid back to UBS AM in the past year.
UBS AM may voluntarily undertake to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in the event that the yields on Fund drop below a certain level. This undertaking is voluntary and not contractual and may be
24
UBS Government Money Market Investments Fund
Notes to financial statements (unaudited)
terminated at any time. At January 31, 2022, UBS AM owed the Fund $123,397 and for the period ended January 31, 2022, UBS AM voluntarily reimbursed expenses of $735,839 which is not subject to future recoupment.
Additional information regarding compensation to affiliate of a former board member
During his term of service on the Board through his retirement from the Board effective December 31, 2021, Professor Meyer Feldberg had also served as a senior advisor to Morgan Stanley, a financial services firm with which the Portfolio may conduct transactions, which resulted in him being an interested trustee of the Trust . The Portfolio has been informed that Professor Feldberg's role at Morgan Stanley did not involve matters directly affecting any UBS funds. Portfolio transactions are executed through Morgan Stanley based on that firm's ability to provide best execution of the transactions.
During the period ended January 31, 2022, the Portfolio did not purchase or sell certain securities (e.g., fixed income securities) in principal trades with Morgan Stanley.
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.
For the period ended January 31, 2022, UBS Financial Services Inc. received from BNY Mellon, not the Portfolio, $186,314 of the total transfer agency and related services fees paid by the Portfolio to BNY Mellon.

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 year ended July 31, 2021 was ordinary income in the amount of $29,838.
The components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax basis for the current fiscal year will be determined after the Portfolio's fiscal year ending July 31, 2022.
Net capital losses recognized by the portfolio may be carried forward indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term losses. At July 31, 2021, the Portfolio had a short-term capital loss carryforward of $560.

taken or expected to be taken. The Portfolio has analyzed and concluded as of January 31, 2022, 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 January 31, 2022, the Portfolio did not incur any interest or penalties.
Each of the tax years in the four year period ended July 31, 2021, remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.
