Material Fund Change [Text Block]
HOW HAS THE FUND CHANGED?
Effective February 27, 2026, the Fund’s principal investment strategies changed to pursue the Fund’s investment objective by investing primarily in mutual funds and closed-end funds managed by the Investment Manager or its affiliates that invest primarily in equity, fixed income, and alternatives asset classes. In connection with the foregoing, effective February 27, 2026, the Fund is no longer subject to the following non-fundamental investment policy:
Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest in underlying funds (which, for purposes of this policy, include money market mutual funds advised by the Investment Manager or its affiliates) such that, in the aggregate, it has indirect exposure to investments that meet each underlying fund’s respective sustainability or ESG criteria and that represent at least 80% of the value of its net assets.
In addition, effective February 27, 2026, the Fund’s approximate allocations to each asset class and underlying fund as of February 27, 2026 and its projected approximate allocations to those asset classes and underlying funds as of February 26, 2027 were revised to reflect the changes to the Fund’s principal investment strategies described above.
Effective February 27, 2026, the following principal risks were added to the Fund’s prospectus: alternative strategies risk, private credit risk, and real estate risk. In addition, effective February 27, 2026, the following risks were removed as principal risks from the Fund’s prospectus: sustainability and ESG investing risk, industry or sector concentration risk, geographic focus risk, and the risks relating to underlying fund investments in exchange-traded funds.
Effective June 1, 2026, the portfolio managers for the Fund are Adrian H. Chan, CFA, Brett S. Goldstein, CFA, Laura Green, CFA, Thomas A. Nelson, CFA and Jonathan M. Schreiber, CFA.
Effective February 27, 2026, the current total expense cap on each class of the Fund (exclusive of payments under the Fund’s distribution plans, brokerage, interest, taxes, investment-related expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses (which are separately waived), and extraordinary expenses) was increased so that the total annual fund operating expenses for class A, C, R, R3, R4, R5, R6 and Y shares will not exceed 0.70%, 0.70%, 0.85%, 0.85%, 0.85%, 0.70%, 0.60% and 0.70%, respectively, of the Fund’s average net assets.
Effective October 1, 2025, management fees for each class of the Fund were restated to reflect the reduced management fee rate that took effect under the Fund’s management agreement based on the number of years remaining until the date referenced in the Fund’s name.
This is a summary of certain changes to the Fund since August 1, 2025. For more complete information, you may review the Fund’s current prospectus and any applicable supplements and the Fund’s next prospectus, which we expect to be available by December 1, 2026, at https://www.franklintempleton.com/regulatory-fund-documents or upon request at (800) 225-1581 or funddocuments@putnam.com.

Effective June 1, 2026, the portfolio managers for the Fund are Adrian H. Chan, CFA, Brett S. Goldstein, CFA, Laura Green, CFA, Thomas A. Nelson, CFA and Jonathan M. Schreiber, CFA.
Effective February 27, 2026, the current total expense cap on each class of the Fund (exclusive of payments under the Fund’s distribution plans, brokerage, interest, taxes, investment-related expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses (which are separately waived), and extraordinary expenses) was increased so that the total annual fund operating expenses for class A, C, R, R3, R4, R5, R6 and Y shares will not exceed 0.70%, 0.70%, 0.85%, 0.85%, 0.85%, 0.70%, 0.60% and 0.70%, respectively, of the Fund’s average net assets.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest in underlying funds (which, for purposes of this policy, include money market mutual funds advised by the Investment Manager or its affiliates) such that, in the aggregate, it has indirect exposure to investments that meet each underlying fund’s respective sustainability or ESG criteria and that represent at least 80% of the value of its net assets.
In addition, effective February 27, 2026, the Fund’s approximate allocations to each asset class and underlying fund as of February 27, 2026 and its projected approximate allocations to those asset classes and underlying funds as of February 26, 2027 were revised to reflect the changes to the Fund’s principal investment strategies described above.

In addition, effective February 27, 2026, the following risks were removed as principal risks from the Fund’s prospectus: sustainability and ESG investing risk, industry or sector concentration risk, geographic focus risk, and the risks relating to underlying fund investments in exchange-traded funds.
Effective June 1, 2026, the portfolio managers for the Fund are Adrian H. Chan, CFA, Brett S. Goldstein, CFA, Laura Green, CFA, Thomas A. Nelson, CFA and Jonathan M. Schreiber, CFA.
Effective February 27, 2026, the current total expense cap on each class of the Fund (exclusive of payments under the Fund’s distribution plans, brokerage, interest, taxes, investment-related expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses (which are separately waived), and extraordinary expenses) was increased so that the total annual fund operating expenses for class A, C, R, R3, R4, R5, R6 and Y shares will not exceed 0.70%, 0.70%, 0.85%, 0.85%, 0.85%, 0.70%, 0.60% and 0.70%, respectively, of the Fund’s average net assets.
