About JAJAX
John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust Managed Volatility Growth Portfolio Series II is a mutual fund designed to serve as an investment option within variable insurance contracts. Its primary objective is to pursue capital growth while managing portfolio volatility, aiming to provide steadier long-term returns compared to traditional equity-focused strategies. This fund incorporates a growth-oriented approach, typically investing in equities with a focus on risk mitigation techniques to help smooth out the impact of market fluctuations. The managed volatility focus is particularly suited to investors seeking exposure to growth assets but with a preference for reduced swings in returns. The fund may periodically adjust its allocations or employ strategies to limit downside risk, as outlined in its prospectus. By fulfilling this niche, it supports insurance products’ need for balanced, long-term growth potential with an added layer of risk control, impacting sectors and industries broadly represented in the equity markets. The portfolio’s performance and features—such as its dividend history and expense structure—make it a significant option in the context of variable insurance investments, offering diversification and risk-adjusted growth within retirement and long-term planning frameworks.
