is in the form of distributions once underlying portfolio companies are sold and gains are
realized by the general partner. There may be little to no
opportunities for the fund to otherwise sell such
co-investments. A proposed sale of a co-investment
prior to the time of sale of the relevant portfolio
company will typically require consent by the general
partner and be sold at a discount. The term of the
partnership shall continue in perpetuity until the
partnership is dissolved in accordance with its limited

ITEM 2 - Code of Ethics
The Registrant has adopted a Code of Ethics, as of the end of the period covered by this report, applicable to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of the code of ethics is available without charge at https://www.capitalgroup.com/individual/pdf/shareholder/cg_code_of_ethics.pdf.
ITEM 3 - Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Registrant’s board has determined that Pablo R. González Guajardo, a member of the Registrant’s audit committee, is an “audit committee financial expert” and “independent,” as such terms are defined in this Item. This designation will not increase the designee’s duties, obligations or liability as compared to his or her duties, obligations and liability as a member of the audit committee and of the board, nor will it reduce the responsibility of the other audit committee members. There may be other individuals who, through education or experience, would qualify as “audit committee financial experts” if the board had designated them as such. Most importantly, the board believes each member of the audit committee contributes significantly to the effective oversight of the Registrant’s financial statements and condition.

1The audit fees represents fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit and review of the Registrant’s annual financial statements. The audit-related fees represents fees billed for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Registrant’s financial statements, but not reported under “audit fees”. The tax fees consist of professional services relating to the preparation of the Registrant’s tax returns. The other fees represents fees, if any, billed for other products and services rendered by the principal accountant to the Registrant other than those reported under the “audit fees”, “audit-related fees”, and “tax fees”.
2This includes only fees for non-audit services billed to the adviser and affiliates for engagements that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant and were subject to the pre-approval policies described below. The audit-related fees consist of assurance and related services relating to the examination of the Registrant’s transfer agent, principal underwriter and investment adviser conducted in accordance with Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements Number 18 issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The tax fees consist of consulting services relating to the Registrant’s investments. The other fees consist of subscription services related to an accounting research tool.
3Aggregate non-audit fees paid to the Registrant’s auditors, including fees for all services billed to the Registrant, adviser and affiliates that provide ongoing services to the Registrant. The non-audit services represented by these amounts were brought to the attention ofthe committee and considered to be compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.
(e1 )(e2)(h) All audit and permissible non-audit services that the Registrant’s audit committee considers compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence are required to be pre-approved by the committee. The pre-approval requirement will extend to all non-audit services provided to the Registrant, the investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant. The committee will not delegate its responsibility to pre-approve these services to the investment adviser. The committee may delegate to one or more committee members the authority to review and pre-approve audit and permissible non-audit services. Actions taken under any such delegation will be reported to the full committee at its next meeting. The pre-approval requirement is waived with respect to non-audit services if certain conditions are met. The pre-approval requirement was not waived for any of the non-audit services listed above provided to the Registrant, adviser and affiliates.

The information is included as part of the material filed under Item 1 of this Form under Approval of Investment Advisory and Service Agreement.
ITEM 12 - Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies
Investment adviser – The fund’s investment adviser, Capital Research and Management Company, in consultation with the fund’s board, has adopted Proxy Voting Procedures and Principles (the “Principles”) with respect to voting proxies of securities held in the portion of the fund managed by the investment adviser as well as other funds managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates. The Principles are reasonably designed to ensure that proxies are voted solely in accordance with the financial interest of the clients of the investment adviser or its affiliates and the shareholders of the funds advised or managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates. The complete text of the Principles is available at capitalgroup.com. Final voting authority is held by a committee of the appropriate equity investment division of the investment adviser under authority delegated by the funds’ boards. The boards of funds advised by Capital Research and Management Company and its affiliates, including Capital Group KKR Public-Private+ Funds, have established a Joint Proxy Committee (“JPC”) composed of independent board members from each board. The JPC’s role is to facilitate appropriate oversight of the proxy voting process and provide valuable input on corporate governance and related matters.
The Principles provide an important framework for analysis and decision-making by all funds. However, they are not exhaustive and do not address all potential issues. The Principles provide a certain amount of flexibility so that all relevant facts and circumstances can be considered in connection with every vote. As a result, each proxy received is voted on a case-by-case basis considering the specific circumstances of each proposal. The voting process reflects the funds’ understanding of the company’s business, its management and its relationship with shareholders over time. In all cases, long-term value creation and the investment objectives and policies of the funds managed by the investment adviser remain the focus.
The investment adviser seeks to vote all U.S. proxies. Proxies for companies outside the United States are also voted where there is sufficient time and information available, taking into account distinct market practices, regulations and laws, and types of proposals presented in each country. Where there is insufficient proxy and meeting agenda information available, the investment adviser will generally vote against such proposals in the interest of encouraging improved disclosure for investors. The investment adviser may not exercise its voting authority if voting would impose costs on clients, including opportunity costs. For example, certain regulators have granted investment limit relief to the investment adviser and its affiliates, conditioned upon limiting voting power to specific voting ceilings. To comply with these voting ceilings, the investment adviser will scale back its votes across all funds and accounts it manages on a pro rata basis based on assets. In addition, certain countries impose restrictions on the ability of shareholders to sell shares during the proxy solicitation period. The investment adviser may choose, due to liquidity issues, not to expose the funds and accounts it manages to such restrictions and may not vote some (or all) shares. Finally, the investment adviser may determine not to recall securities on loan to exercise its voting rights when it determines that the cost of doing so would exceed the benefits to clients or that the vote would not have a material impact on the investment. Proxies with respect to securities on loan through client-directed lending programs are not available to vote and therefore are not voted.
After a proxy statement is received, the investment adviser’s stewardship and engagement team prepares a summary of the proposals contained in the proxy statement.
The following summary sets forth the general positions of the investment adviser on various proposals. A copy of the full Principles is available upon request, free of charge, by calling American Funds Service Company or visiting the Capital Group website.
Director matters – The election of a company’s slate of nominees for director generally is supported. Votes may be withheld for some or all of the nominees if this is determined to be in the best interest of shareholders or if, in the opinion of the investment adviser, such nominee has not fulfilled his or her fiduciary duty. In making this determination, the investment adviser considers, among other things, a nominee’s potential conflicts of interest, track record (whether in the current board seat or in previous executive or director roles) with respect to shareholder protection and value creation as well as their capacity for full engagement on board matters. The investment adviser generally supports a breadth of experience and perspectives among board members, and the separation of the chairman and CEO positions.
Governance provisions – Proposals to declassify a board (elect all directors annually) generally are supported based on the belief that this increases the directors’ sense of accountability to shareholders. Proposals for cumulative voting generally are supported in order to promote management and board accountability and an opportunity for leadership change. Proposals designed to make director elections more meaningful, either by requiring a majority vote or by requiring any director receiving more withhold votes than affirmative votes to tender his or her resignation, generally are supported.
Shareholder rights – Proposals to repeal an existing poison pill generally are supported. There may be certain circumstances, however, when a proxy voting committee of a fund or an investment division of the investment adviser believes that a company needs to maintain anti-takeover protection. Proposals to eliminate the right of shareholders to act by written consent or to take away a shareholder’s right to call a special meeting typically are not supported.
Compensation and benefit plans – Equity incentive plans are complicated, and many factors are considered in evaluating a plan. Each plan is evaluated based on protecting shareholder interests and a knowledge of the company and its management. Considerations include the pricing (or repricing) of options awarded under the plan and the impact of dilution on existing shareholders from past and future equity awards. Compensation packages should be structured to attract, motivate and retain existing employees and qualified directors; in addition, they should be aligned with the long term success of the company and the enhancement of shareholder value.
Routine matters – The ratification of auditors, procedural matters relating to the annual meeting and changes to company name are examples of items considered routine. Such items generally are voted in favor of management’s recommendations unless circumstances indicate otherwise.
Shareholder proposals on environmental and social issues – The investment adviser believes environmental and social issues present investment risks and opportunities that can shape a company’s long-term financial sustainability. Shareholder proposals, including those relating to social and environmental issues, are evaluated in terms of their materiality to the company and its ability to generate long-term value in light of the company’s business model specific operating context. The investment adviser generally supports transparency and standardized disclosure, particularly that which leverages existing regulatory reporting or industry best practices. With respect to environmental matters, this includes disclosures aligned with industry standards and reporting on sustainability issues that are material to investment analysis. With respect to social matters, the investment adviser encourages companies to disclose the composition of the workforce in a regionally appropriate manner. The investment adviser supports relevant reporting and disclosure that is consistent with broadly applicable standards.

Conflicts of interest – The fund’s investment adviser has adopted policies and procedures to mitigate material conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with a portfolio manager’s management of the fund, on the one hand, and investments in the other registered investment companies, pooled investment vehicles and other accounts, on the other hand, such as material conflicts relating to the allocation of investment opportunities that may be suitable for both the fund and such other accounts. These material conflicts of interest include, but are not limited to, those described below.
| | The investment adviser will, at times, compete with certain of its affiliates, including other entities it manages or proprietary accounts, for investments for the fund, creating certain conflicts of interest in evaluating the suitability of investment opportunities and making or recommending acquisitions on the fund’s behalf. The investment adviser will receive advisory and other fees from the other entities it manages, and the fees, at times, will not be proportionate to such entities’ investment accounts for any given transaction and will create an incentive to favor entities with higher fees. |
| | Subject to applicable law, affiliates of the investment adviser will, from time to time, invest in one of the fund’s portfolio companies and hold a different class of securities than the fund. To the extent that an affiliate of the investment adviser holds a different class of securities than the fund, its interests might not be aligned with the fund’s. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the investment adviser will act in the best interest of the fund in accordance with its fiduciary duty to the fund. |
| | The appropriate allocation among the fund and other funds and accounts managed by the investment adviser of expenses and fees generated in the course of evaluating and making investments often will not be clear, especially where more than one such fund or account participates. The investment adviser will determine, in its sole discretion, the appropriate allocation of investment-related expenses, including broken deal expenses incurred in respect of unconsummated investments and expenses more generally relating to a particular investment strategy, among the funds and accounts participating or that would have participated in such investments or that otherwise participate in the relevant investment strategy, as applicable, which could result in the fund bearing more or less of these expenses than other participants or potential participants in the relevant investments. |
| | The investment adviser expects to obtain investment exposure to private equity through K-PEC and co-investment opportunities offered and sponsored by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (together with its subsidiaries, “KKR”) without considering the universe of available investment options managed by other managers. The investment adviser’s arrangements with KKR create an incentive for the investment adviser to consider only K-PEC and KKR sponsored co-investments even in circumstances when it may conflict or appear to conflict with the fund’s and shareholders’ interests. Such conflicts could arise in many circumstances, including, for example and without limitation, if K-PEC performance lags market or competitor returns over extended periods. Additionally, with respect to KKR’s allocation of co-investment opportunities to third-party investors such as the fund (each, a “Co-Investor”), there can be no assurances that any particular Co-Investor, including the fund, will be given the opportunity to participate in any co-investment opportunities, or on the same or comparable economic terms as other Co-Investors. In determining the allocation of co-investment opportunities, KKR considers a multitude of factors, including the interest of K-PEC, any KKR Vehicles, KKR proprietary entities, KKR and/or Co-Investors in the opportunity. As a result, co-investment opportunities are not allocated pro rata based on each investor’s assets, and the fund may not receive its desired allocation to certain co-investments. This could limit the fund’s investment flexibility and liquidity, as well as its ability to achieve its desired investment returns. In addition, to the extent the investment adviser and KKR alter or terminate their relationship, the fund may not be able to pursue its investment objective and strategies in whole or in part, and the fund and shareholders could experience investment losses as a result. Other benefits that the investment adviser and the fund enjoy as a result of their relationship with KKR could also be altered, reduced or eliminated in the event of such changes to their relationship. |
| | KKR provides distribution payments to the fund’s distributor, Capital Client Group, Inc., in connection with investments by certain funds and accounts managed by Capital Research and Management Company or its affiliates, including the fund (collectively, “Capital Group Entities”), in KKR-sponsored investments, including K-PEC, other KKR Vehicles and KKR-sourced co-investments. As it relates to the fund, these payments are determined by the collective amount the fund invests in such KKR-sponsored investments and are calculated as a revenue share of the fees and performance allocations received by KKR from such investments. Any such compensation will apply regardless of how an investment is acquired and will not be contingent on the fund realizing a gain on its investment in such KKR-sponsored investments. This may create an incentive for the investment adviser to allocate a greater portion of the fund’s assets to K-PEC, other KKR Vehicles and KKR-sourced co-investments, even when it may conflict or appear to conflict with the fund’s and shareholders’ interests as described in the paragraph immediately above, and may create a disincentive for the investment adviser to attempt to negotiate lower fees on such investments. |
| | While the value of the fund’s securities and other instruments are typically based on pricing information from independent sources such as dealers and pricing services, the fund relies on its own fair valuations with respect to portfolio investments that are not publicly traded and for which no market-based price quotation is available. Fair value pricing involves judgments that are inherently subjective and uncertain. Additionally, the fund or its pricing services may utilize inputs obtained from KKR, its affiliates and/or agents regarding certain of the fund’s portfolio investments. Because the fund’s management fee is calculated based on the value of the fund’s net assets, the role of the investment adviser in valuation of the fund’s securities and other holdings presents |
| a potential conflict of interest – namely, that the investment adviser could be incentivized to value the assets higher than if the management fee were not based on the valuation of such assets. In addition, because the fund’s NAV is a critical component in several operational matters including the determination of the price at which the fund’s shares will be offered and at which a repurchase offer will be made, a variance in the valuation of the fund’s investments will impact, positively or negatively, the fees and expenses shareholders will pay, the price a shareholder will receive in connection with a repurchase order and the number of shares an investor will receive upon investing in the fund. |
| | As a registered investment company, the fund is limited in its ability to make investments in issuers in which the investment adviser or its affiliates’ other clients have an investment. The fund is limited in its ability to co-invest with the investment adviser, or one or more of its affiliates in privately negotiated transactions without an exemptive order from the SEC. |
| | Due to the limited nature of many private equity investment opportunities, KKR may limit the fund’s investments in K-PEC or private equity co-investment opportunities sponsored by KKR or may favor other KKR clients or accounts in manner that reduces allocations otherwise available to other co-investing accounts, including the fund. To mitigate this conflict, KKR generally allocates investment opportunities in a manner that is consistent with an allocation methodology established by KKR and its affiliates, in a manner designed to ensure allocations of such opportunities are made on a fair and equitable basis over time. See the sections titled “K-PEC” and “Co-Investments” in the Investment Strategies section of this prospectus for additional information about the conflicts of interest that may exist with respect to the fund’s investments in K-PEC and private equity securities pursuant to co-invest opportunities sourced and offered by KKR and its affiliates. |
| | By reason of the various activities of the investment adviser and its affiliates, the investment adviser and such affiliates may acquire confidential or material non-public information or otherwise be restricted from purchasing certain potential fund investments that otherwise might have been purchased or be restricted from selling certain fund investments that might otherwise have been sold at the time. |
| | The investment adviser will also have, or enter into, advisory relationships with other advisory clients (including, among others, employee benefit plans subject to ERISA and related regulations) that could lead to circumstances in which a conflict of interest between the investment adviser’s advisory clients could exist or develop. In addition, to the extent that another client of the investment adviser holds a different class of securities than the fund, the interest of such client and the fund might not be aligned. As a result of these conflicts and restrictions, the investment adviser could be unable to implement the fund’s investment strategies as effectively as it could have in the absence of such conflicts or restrictions. In order to avoid these conflicts and restrictions, the investment adviser could choose to exit these investments prematurely and, as a result, the fund would forgo any future positive returns associated with such investments. |
| | Certain other client accounts or proprietary accounts managed by the investment adviser have investment objectives, programs, strategies and positions that are similar to, or conflict with, those of the fund, or compete with, or have interests adverse to, the fund. This type of conflict could affect the prices and availability of the securities or interests in which the fund invests. The investment adviser or its affiliates will, from time to time, give advice or take action with respect to the investments held by, and transactions of, other client accounts or proprietary accounts managed by the investment adviser or its affiliates that could be different from or otherwise inconsistent with the advice given or timing or nature of any action taken with respect to the investments held by, and timing or nature of any action taken with respect to the investments held by, and transactions of, the fund. Such different advice and/or inconsistent actions could be due to a variety of reasons, including, without limitation, the differences between the investment objective, program, strategy and tax treatment of the other client accounts or proprietary accounts and the fund or the regulatory status of other client accounts and any related restrictions or obligations imposed on the investment adviser or its affiliate as a fiduciary thereof. Such advice and actions could adversely impact the fund. |
The investment adviser and its affiliates will deal with conflicts of interest using its best judgment, but in its sole discretion. Although the investment adviser has established procedures and policies addressing conflicts of interest, there can be no assurance that the investment adviser will be able to resolve all conflicts in a manner that is favorable to the fund.
(a)(3) Compensation of investment professionals – The discussion below describes the portfolio managers’ compensation as of March 31, 2026.
The investment adviser uses a system of multiple portfolio managers in managing fund assets. In addition, Capital Research and Management Company‘s investment analysts may make investment decisions with respect to a portion of a fund’s portfolio within their research coverage.
Portfolio managers and investment analysts are paid competitive salaries by Capital Research and Management Company. In addition, they may receive bonuses based on their individual portfolio results. Investment professionals also may participate in profit-sharing plans. The relative mix of compensation represented by bonuses, salary and profit-sharing plans will vary depending on the individual’s portfolio results, contributions to the organization and other factors.
To encourage a long-term focus, bonuses based on investment results are calculated by comparing total investment returns to relevant benchmarks over the most recent one-, three-, five- and eight-year periods, with increasing weight placed on each succeeding measurement period. For portfolio managers, benchmarks may include measures of the marketplaces in which the fund invests and measures of the results of comparable mutual funds. For investment analysts, benchmarks may include relevant market measures and appropriate industry or sector indexes reflecting their areas of expertise. Capital Research and Management Company makes periodic subjective assessments of analysts’ contributions to the investment process and this is an element of their overall compensation. The investment results of each of the fund’s portfolio managers may be measured against one or more benchmarks, depending on his or her investment focus, such as S&P 500 Index and Morningstar US Funds – Large Blend. From time to time, Capital Research and Management Company may adjust or customize these benchmarks to better reflect the investment objective(s) of the fund and/or the universe of comparably managed funds of competitive investment management firms.

ITEM 15 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
There have been no material changes to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the Registrant’s board of trustees since the Registrant last submitted a proxy statement to its shareholders. The procedures are as follows. The Registrant has a nominating and governance committee comprised solely of persons who are not considered ‘‘interested persons’’ of the Registrant within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The committee periodically reviews such issues as the board’s composition, responsibilities, committees, compensation and other relevant issues, and recommends any appropriate changes to the full board of trustees. The committee also coordinates annual self-assessments of the board and evaluates, selects and nominates independent trustee candidates to the full board of trustees. While the committee normally is able to identify from its own and other resources an ample number of qualified candidates, it will consider shareholder suggestions of persons to be considered as nominees to fill future vacancies on the board. Such suggestions must be sent in writing to the nominating and governance committee of the Registrant, c/o the Registrant’s Secretary, and must be accompanied by complete biographical and occupational data on the prospective nominee, along with a written consent of the prospective nominee for consideration of his or her name by the nominating and governance committee.
