CFM - Cumulus Strategy
With respect to its allocated portion of the Fund, CFM will seek to achieve long-term capital appreciation through returns that aim to be uncorrelated with traditional asset classes.

The program may take long and short exposures through a variety of financial instruments including securities, foreign exchange, futures, forwards and other derivatives on bonds, shares, rates, currencies, commodities, credit and indices, as well as derivatives on all the foregoing. The trading of the program is generally conducted using electronic means based on a number of proprietary systematic trading models. The program employs a systematic investment process which seeks to generate, weigh and aggregate signals based on such components to build a diversified investment portfolio. The program includes an integrated risk management system which seeks to monitor the risk of the portfolio on an ongoing basis. The risk of the individual trading strategies is adjusted on the basis of volatility forecasts in order to target a stable portfolio risk over the medium-term. The program seeks to be diversified within the asset classes traded. The program is exposed to the financial markets on a global basis focusing on markets that provide sufficient liquidity and supporting infrastructure. Trading may be extended to new markets when liquidity and market infrastructure allow. The program is statistical and systematic in nature. The system is fed with historical price and econometric time series data. A range of systems are employed which can be both technical and market specific in nature. Trade execution is generally electronic in all asset classes and is based upon execution models that seek to take advantage of short-term market information.
The first paragraph under the "Risk/Return Summary - Management - Sub-Advisers" section of the Prospectus is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:
The Adviser allocates Fund assets for each investment strategy to Sub-Advisers (BlackRock in turn allocates assets to its Sub-Sub-Adviser), which allocations may be adjusted at any time. AHL, PIMCO, T. Rowe Price, DBi, BlackRock and CFM are the current Sub-Advisers to the Fund and BIL is the current Sub-Sub-Adviser to the Fund.

On the Effective Date, the first paragraph under the "INVESTMENT ADVISER, SUB-ADVISERSAND SUB-SUB-ADVISERS"section of Part II of the SAI is hereby deleted and replaced with the following:

Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement, JPMPI serves as investment adviser to the Funds. BlackRock, Insight, Goldman, PIMCO, PGIM, Capital, Nuveen, Allspring, Lord Abbett, RBC GAM (UK), Muzinich, AHL, T. Rowe Price, DBi and CFM serve as investment sub-advisersto certain Funds pursuant to investment sub-advisoryagreements with JPMPI. BIL, BSL, PGIML and RBC GAM (US) serve as investment sub-sub-advisersto the Fund pursuant to investment sub-sub-advisoryagreements with their affiliated Sub-Advisers.

The following discussion of CFM is added to the end of the "INVESTMENT ADVISER, SUB-ADVISERSAND SUB-SUB-ADVISERS"section of Part II of the SAI:

Capital Fund Management S.A. ("CFM").CFM has been engaged by JPMPI to serve as an investment sub-adviserto the Six Circles Multi-Strategy Fund pursuant to an investment sub-advisoryagreement (the "CFM Sub-AdvisoryAgreement"). CFM is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. CFM is located at 23, rue de l'Universite 75007 Paris, France.

CFM is paid monthly by JPMPI a fee based on the portion of assets under management of the Six Circles Multi-Strategy Fund allocated to CFM, as set forth in the CFM Sub-AdvisoryAgreement.

The CFM Sub-AdvisoryAgreement will continue in effect for a period of two years from the date of its execution, unless terminated sooner. It may be renewed from year to year thereafter, so long as continuance is specifically approved at least annually in accordance with the requirements of the 1940 Act.

The Multi-Strategy Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the Multi-Strategy Subsidiaries. JPMPI has entered into a separate contract with CFM whereby CFM provides investment sub-advisoryservices to one of the Multi-Strategy Subsidiaries (a "Multi-Strategy Subsidiary Sub-AdvisoryAgreement"). In recognition of the fact that contractual sub-advisoryfees are already charged for CFM's investment management services to the Multi-Strategy Fund (which includes the Multi-Strategy Subsidiary investment), CFM receives no additional management fees from JPMPI for the services rendered pursuant to the Multi-Strategy Subsidiary Sub-AdvisoryAgreement.

The following disclosure related to CFM is hereby added to the end of the "POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST - Conflicts of Interest Relating to the Sub-Advisersand Sub-Sub-Advisers"section of the SAI Part II:

CFM

Managing potential conflicts of interest is a key consideration of CFM, as it acts in a fiduciary capacity with respect to each of its advisory clients and seeks to act in their best interest. CFM has performed a review of potential conflicts of interest that may arise in the ordinary course of its business activities, and, where necessary, has implemented mitigating controls. CFM has also set up an organization scheme designed to limit the risks of conflicts of interest and ensure an effective separation between the main functions of CFM.

CFM and its affiliates may engage in a broad range of investment, investment advisory and other activities. As a result, CFM will frequently purchase or sell the same class of securities or financial instruments, and there may be conflicts of interest with respect to, for example, the allocation of investment opportunities, purchases and sales of securities in connection with particular investment situations, and personnel, other resources and expenses. Further, CFM may give advice and take action, with respect to any clients, accounts and pooled investment vehicles, that may differ from the advice given, or the timing or nature of action taken, with respect to the Fund. However, where such allocations of investment opportunities occur, CFM will seek to ensure that such allocations are made in a manner which does not unfairly prejudice the interests of the Fund.

The following disclosure related to CFM is hereby added to the end of the "PORTFOLIO MANAGER COMPENSATION" section of the SAI Part II:

CFM

CFM's remuneration policy is applied firm-wide. Remuneration of CFM's employees consists of one or several of the following elements: (i) a fixed remuneration and (ii) a bonus determined on the basis of individual and/or collective performance criteria (the "Variable Compensation"). The Variable Compensation results from a combination of discretionary criteria assessed on a yearly basis. These evaluations may be adjusted upwards or downwards accordingly. The main principles of the Variable Compensation process results from:

the allocation of a budget depending on the consolidated profitability of CFM;

the evaluation of individual and collective performance of employees;

a remuneration grid implemented by CFM and built on data provided by well-known providers;

the allocation of the budget on a team basis;

calibration meetings and a validation by CFM's board of directors.

The following disclosure related to CFM is hereby added to the end of "APPENDIX C - PROXY VOTING POLICIES" section of the SAI Part II:

Capital Fund Management S.A. ("CFM")

CFM has a policy to vote by proxy in shareholder meetings that its clients are notified of, using a third-party proxy voting adviser (the "Proxy Agent"), except when the aggregate clients' holdings in an issuer are insignificant. CFM will generally vote by proxy in line with the recommendations of the Proxy Agent. To this end, CFM has subscribed to the Proxy Agent's ESG Guidelines and has verified, based on general guidelines and principles, that the recommendations rather systematically supports shareholder motions that demand more transparency from companies in terms of strategy for climate change and handling of related risks, in terms of lobbying money being spent on climate change related initiatives, and in terms of linking management remuneration to achieving ESG related targets. For ballots relating to particularly sensitive topics, the CFM ESG team may confirm that the Proxy Agent's recommendation fits its clients' best interest before approving the vote.

It should be noted that CFM may only vote proxies when it has a mandate to do so and when securities are held with a custodian that allows for proxy voting. Securities that are held with a prime broker that has taken title interest in the security through re-useare generally not available to vote.

At the time of the launch of this strategy, the physical securities portfolios advised by CFM only include securities listed in the United States. The CFM generally trades exposures to non-USequities as single stock swaps or contracts for difference and such instruments thus do not provide the possibility to vote proxies.
