GMO Asset Allocation Bond Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Asset Allocation team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO Asset Allocation Bond Fund returned +6.33% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +0.33% for the FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index.

The Fund’s position in Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities drove the vast majority of gains during the fiscal year, as real 10-year yields plummeted from -0.28% at the start of the period to an incredible -0.71% at the end of the period.

The Fund also had a modest exposure to short-dated U.S. Treasuries, and these made a small positive contribution to performance.

The views expressed herein are exclusively those of Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC as of the date of this report and are subject to change. GMO disclaims any responsibility to update such views. They are not meant as investment advice. References to specific securities are not recommendations of such securities and may not be representative of any GMO portfolio’s current or future investments. All information is unaudited.

Performance data quoted represents past performance and is not indicative of future results. The investment 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. Current performance data may be lower or higher than the performance data provided herein. To obtain performance information up to the most recent month-end, visit www.gmo.com. Performance shown is net of all fees after reimbursement from GMO. Returns would have been lower had certain expenses not been reimbursed during the periods shown and do not include the effect of taxes on distributions and redemptions. The performance information shown above only includes purchase premiums and/or redemption fees in effect as of February 28, 2021. All information is unaudited. Performance for classes may vary due to different fees.

For Class III and VI the gross expense ratio of 0.46% and 0.37%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 0.40% and 0.31% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO Emerging Country Debt Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Emerging Country Debt team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO Emerging Country Debt Fund returned +2.67% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +0.91% for the J.P. Morgan EMBI Global Diversified + (EMBIGD). As of March 1, 2020, the Fund changed its benchmark so that the Fund now seeks total return in excess of that of the EMBIGD, which GMO believes to be a more appropriate benchmark in light of the Fund’s investment strategy. The Fund formerly sought to outperform the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (EMBIG).

EMBIGD’s spread over U.S. Treasuries tightened by 15 basis points to 359 basis points during the fiscal year, while the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury bond rose by 26 basis points to 1.40%.

The Fund had positive alpha from country selection during the fiscal year, driven by gains from overweights in Turkey, Oman, and Ukraine, and underweights in Angola, and Lebanon. While only partly offsetting these gains, the Fund’s overweights in Argentina, Belize, and Ecuador, and underweight in Qatar detracted alpha during the fiscal year.

In terms of security selection, gains from the choice of holdings in Ecuador, Argentina, and Qatar drove positive alpha, followed by smaller contributions from security selection in Brazil and Mexico. Negative alpha from security selection in Tunisia, Turkey, and Egypt only partly offsets these gains. The Fund had negative alpha from holding of bonds in off-benchmark countries, which we consider security selection. The most notable country in this category was Venezuela, followed by Israel and Grenada.

As of March 1, 2020, the Emerging Country Debt Fund changed its benchmark so that the Fund now seeks total return in excess of that of the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global Diversified.

The table incorporates aggregate indirect asset class exposure associated with investments in other funds of GMO Trust (“underlying funds”). Derivative financial instruments, if any, are based on market values, rather than the notional amounts of derivatives, except for forward currency contracts which are based on unrealized appreciation/(depreciation).

‡

The table incorporates aggregate indirect country exposure associated with investments in the underlying funds. The table excludes short-term investments. The table includes exposure through the use of certain derivative financial instruments and excludes exposure through certain currency linked derivatives such as forward currency contracts and currency options. The table is based on duration adjusted net exposures (both investments and derivatives), taking into account the market value of securities and the notional amounts of swaps and other derivative financial instruments. Duration is based on GMO’s models. The greater the duration of a bond, the greater its contribution to the concentration percentage. Credit default swap exposures are factored into the duration adjusted exposure using a reference security and applying the same methodology to that security.

*	“Other Emerging” is comprised of emerging countries that each represent between (1.0)% and 1.0% of Investments.

Buy Protection - Fund pays a premium and buys credit protection. If a credit event occurs the Fund will, depending on the terms of the particular swap contract, either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.

Sell Protection - Fund receives a premium and sells credit protection. If a credit event occurs the Fund will, depending on the terms of the particular swap contract, either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.

⁽¹⁾

As of February 28, 2021, implied credit spreads in absolute terms, calculated using a model, and utilized in determining the market value of credit default swap contracts on the reference security, serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and reflect the likelihood or risk of default for the reference entity. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection. Wider (i.e. higher) credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the contract.

⁽²⁾	The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap contract.

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Structured Products team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class VI shares of GMO High Yield Fund returned +7.21% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +7.09% for the Markit iBoxx USD Liquid High Yield Index.

The Fund was invested in a mix of index portfolio products as well as cash high yield bonds. During the fiscal year, the Fund moved exposures between different products based on changes in the model’s alpha signals as well as other factors. Absolute performance was driven by high yield-based ETFs and fallen angel bonds (bonds originally issued as investment grade that have since been downgraded to below investment grade), which were top contributors for the period. Credit default swaps and short-dated B–CCC bonds also contributed positively during the period, while BB-rated bonds detracted.

The table excludes short-term investments and mutual funds, if any. The table includes exposure through the use of certain derivative financial instruments and excludes exposures through certain currency linked derivatives such as forward currency contracts.

GMO Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund (formerly Core Plus Bond Fund)

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Developed Rates & FX team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund returned +0.59% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +1.38% for the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index.

The Fund’s investment exposure was achieved through global interest rate and currency derivatives, as well as indirect (through ETFs and other GMO Funds, including GMO Opportunistic Income Fund, GMO Emerging Country Debt Fund, and GMO U.S. Treasury Fund) and direct fixed income investments.

Developed markets interest rate positioning contributed negatively during the fiscal year. The Fund’s active duration positions in New Zealand, Switzerland, and Canada detracted value, while positions in European and U.K. rates provided some support. Slope positions (2-year vs. 10-year) in New Zealand and Canada compounded losses in rates.

The Fund’s positions in developed market currencies added value during the fiscal year. Exposure to Swedish krona added to performance, but exposure to New Zealand dollar paired gains. Exposure to emerging market currencies resulted in a net positive contribution to performance. Positioning in South African rand and Brazilian real drove gains.

The Fund’s overweight positioning to securitized products and emerging country debt also added value during the year.

Comparison of Change in Value of a $5,000,000 Investment in

GMO Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund (Formerly GMO Core Plus Bond Fund) Class III Shares and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

For Class III and IV the gross expense ratio of 0.61% and 0.56%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 0.45% and 0.40% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

‡

The table incorporates aggregate indirect country exposure associated with investments in the underlying funds. The table is normalized to 100%, therefore the absolute exposure presented for each country may not be representative of the true exposure of the Fund. The table excludes short-term investments. The table includes exposure through the use of certain derivative financial instruments and excludes exposure through certain currency linked derivatives such as forward currency contracts and currency options. The table is based on duration adjusted net exposures (both investments and derivatives), taking into account the market value of securities and the notional amounts of swaps and other derivative financial instruments. Duration is based on GMO’s models. The greater the duration of a bond, the greater its contribution to the concentration percentage. Credit default swap exposures are factored into the duration adjusted exposure using the reference security and applying the same methodology to that security.

*	“Other Emerging” is comprised of emerging countries that each represent between (1.0)% and 1.0% of Investments.

GMO Opportunistic Income Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Structured Products team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although the Fund is not managed relative to any securities market index or benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Securitized + Index* is included for comparative purposes.

Class VI shares of GMO Opportunistic Income Fund returned +2.95% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +1.56% for the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Securitized + Index.

Absolute performance was driven by sector allocations such as Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities, Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities, and Student Loans, which were among the top contributors of the fiscal year. The Fund’s relative value synthetic trades and credit hedge positions also contributed positively during the fiscal year, as did securitizations related to corporate debt markets, such as Collateralized Loan Obligations. Finally, in asset-backed products, such as Small Balance Commercial Asset-Backed Securities (ABS), the Fund added value in less volatile, shorter duration markets.

*The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Securitized + Index is an internally maintained benchmark computed by GMO, comprised of the J.P. Morgan U.S. 3-Month Cash Index through 12/30/2016 and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Securitized: MBS, ABS, CMBS Index thereafter.

Current performance data may be lower or higher than the performance data provided herein. To obtain performance information up to the most recent month-end, visit www.gmo.com. Performance shown is net of all fees after reimbursement from GMO.

Performance for classes may vary due to different fees.

Effective February 12, 2014, GMO Opportunistic Income Fund (the “Acquired Fund”) merged into GMO Short-Duration Collateral Fund and the surviving entity was renamed GMO Opportunistic Income Fund. For accounting and financial reporting purposes, the Acquired Fund is the surviving entity, meaning that the combined entity adopted the historical financial reporting and performance history of the Acquired Fund. The information shown prior to February 12, 2014 is that of the Acquired Fund and reflects the Acquired Fund’s performance.

The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Securitized + Index is a composite benchmark computed by GMO and comprised of the J.P. Morgan U.S. 3 Month Cash Index through December 30, 2016 and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Securitized Index thereafter.

Beginning December 21, 2015 the pricing source for certain fixed income assets of the Fund changed, which may have had a material impact on the Fund’s performance for the period shown.

For Class VI and I the gross expense ratio of 0.51% and 0.73%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 0.47% and 0.67% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Short Duration Strategies team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although the Fund is not managed relative to any securities market index or benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index is included for comparative purposes.

GMO U.S. Treasury Fund returned +0.63% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +0.33% for the FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index.

Security selection in U.S. Treasury Notes drove positive performance during the year, followed by positive contributions from Floating Rate Treasury Notes, U.S. Treasury Bills, and Federal Home Loan Bank Notes.

Comparison of Change in Value of a $5,000,000 Investment in

GMO U.S. Treasury Fund and the FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

The gross expense ratio of 0.11% is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. The corresponding net expense ratio of 0.08% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

Notes to Financial Statements

February 28, 2021

1.	Organization

Each of Asset Allocation Bond Fund, Emerging Country Debt Fund, High Yield Fund, Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund (formerly Core Plus Bond Fund), Opportunistic Income Fund and U.S. Treasury Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) is a series of GMO Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was established as a Massachusetts business trust under the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts on June 24, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees of the Trust (“Trustees”) to create an unlimited number of series of shares (Funds) and to subdivide Funds into classes. The Funds are advised and managed by Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC (“GMO”).

The Funds may invest in GMO U.S. Treasury Fund and in money market funds unaffiliated with GMO.

Many of the Funds may invest without limitation in other GMO Funds (“underlying funds”). In particular, pursuant to an exemptive order granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), some of the Funds may invest in Emerging Country Debt Fund, Opportunistic Income Fund and U.S. Treasury Fund. The financial statements of the underlying funds should be read in conjunction with the Funds’ financial statements. The financial statements are available without charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or on GMO’s website at www.gmo.com.

The following table provides information about the Funds’ principal investment objectives and benchmarks (if any):



Fund Name	Benchmark	Investment Objective
Asset Allocation Bond Fund	FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index	Total return in excess of benchmark
Emerging Country Debt Fund	J.P. Morgan EMBI Global Diversified	Total return in excess of benchmark
High Yield Fund	Markit iBoxx USD Liquid High Yield Index	Total return in excess of benchmark
Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund (formerly Core Plus Bond Fund)	Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index	Total return in excess of benchmark
Opportunistic Income Fund	Not Applicable	Capital appreciation and current income
U.S. Treasury Fund	Not Applicable	Liquidity and safety of principal with current income as a secondary objective

Asset Allocation Bond Fund currently limits subscriptions.

2.	Significant accounting policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and have been consistently followed by the Funds in preparing these financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars.

Portfolio valuation

Typically, the Funds and the underlying funds value fixed income securities at the most recent price supplied by a pricing source determined by GMO. GMO evaluates pricing sources on an ongoing basis and may change a pricing source at any time. GMO monitors erratic or unusual movements (including unusual inactivity) in the prices supplied for a security and has discretion to override a price supplied by a source (e.g., by taking a price supplied by another source) when it believes that the price supplied is not reliable. Alternative pricing sources are often but not always available for securities held by the Funds and the underlying funds.

for long positions and the closing ask price for short positions. Cleared derivatives are valued using the price quoted (which may be based on a model) by the relevant clearing house. If an updated quote for a cleared derivative is not available when a Fund calculates its net asset value, the derivative will generally be valued using an industry standard model, which may differ from the model used by the relevant clearing house. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives are generally valued at the price determined by an industry standard model. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available are generally valued at the most recent quoted price. Shares of the underlying funds and other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their most recent net asset value.

The foregoing valuation methodologies are modified for equities that trade in non-U.S. securities markets that close before the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) due to time zone differences, including the value of equities that underlie futures, options and other derivatives (to the extent the market for those derivatives closes prior to the close of the NYSE). In those cases, the price will generally be adjusted, to the extent practicable and available, based on inputs from an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees that are intended to reflect valuation changes through the NYSE close. These securities listed on foreign exchanges (including the value of equity securities that underlie futures, options and other derivatives (to the extent the market for such instruments closes prior to the close of the NYSE)) are classified as Level 2 (levels defined below).

“Quoted price” typically means the bid price for securities held long and the ask price for securities sold short. If a market quotation for a security does not involve a bid or an ask, the “quoted price” may be the price provided by a market participant or other third-party pricing source in accordance with the market practice for that security. If an updated quoted price for a security is not available when a Fund calculates its net asset value, the Fund will generally use the last quoted price so long as GMO believes that the last quoted price continues to represent that security’s fair value.

In the case of derivatives, prices determined by a model may reflect an estimate of the average of bid and ask prices, regardless of whether a Fund has a long position or a short position.

If quotations are not readily available or circumstances make an existing valuation methodology or procedure unreliable, derivatives and other securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Trustees or persons acting at their direction pursuant to procedures approved by the Trustees. Because of the uncertainty inherent in fair value pricing, the price determined for a particular security may be materially different from the value realized upon its sale. The Funds and/or the underlying funds classify such securities as Level 3 (levels defined below). For the year ended February 28, 2021, the Funds did not reduce the value of any of their OTC derivatives contracts, if any, based on the creditworthiness of their counterparties. See Note 4 “Derivative financial instruments” for a further discussion on valuation of derivatives.

U.S. GAAP requires the Funds to disclose the fair value of their investments in a three-level hierarchy (Levels 1, 2 and 3). The valuation hierarchy is based upon the relative observability of inputs to the valuation of the Funds’ investments. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an investment’s assigned level within the fair value hierarchy. In addition, in periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition, as well as changes related to the liquidity of investments, could cause a security to be reclassified between levels.

The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

The types of assets and liabilities categorized in Level 1 generally include actively traded domestic and certain foreign equity securities; certain U.S. government obligations; derivatives actively traded on a national securities exchange (such as some futures and options); and shares of open-end mutual funds (even if their investments are valued using Level 2 or Level 3 inputs).

Level 2 – Valuations determined using other significant direct or indirect observable inputs.

equity securities that are adjusted based on inputs from an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees, including the value of equity securities that underlie futures, options and other derivatives (to the extent the market for such instruments closes prior to the close of the NYSE) to reflect estimated valuation changes through the NYSE close.

Level 3 – Valuations based primarily on inputs that are unobservable and significant.

The types of assets and liabilities categorized in Level 3 generally include, but are not limited to, certain debt securities (such as asset-backed, mortgage-backed, loans and sovereign debt) and derivatives even though they may be valued using broker quotes; certain debt securities and derivatives adjusted by a specified discount for liquidity or other considerations; certain sovereign debt securities valued using comparable securities issued by the sovereign adjusted by a specified spread; securities whose trading has been suspended or that have been de-listed from their current primary trading exchange valued at the most recent available market or quoted price; securities in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation valued at the most recent available market or quoted price and potential litigation recoveries and interests related to bankruptcy proceedings.

The risks referenced in the tables above are not intended to be inclusive of all risks. Please see the “Investment and other risks” and “Derivative financial instruments” sections below for a further discussion of risks.

In the tables above derivatives are based on market values, rather than the notional amounts of derivatives, except for forward currency contracts which are based on unrealized appreciation/(depreciation). Excludes purchased options, if any, which are included in investments.

The underlying funds held at year end are classified above as Level 1. Certain underlying funds invest in securities and/or derivatives which may have been fair valued using methods determined in good faith by or at the direction of the Trustees or which may have been valued using significant unobservable inputs. For a summary of the levels assigned to the underlying funds’ direct securities and derivatives, if any, please refer to the underlying funds’ Notes to Financial Statements which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or on GMO’s website at www.gmo.com.

U.S. GAAP requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements for material Level 3 securities and derivatives, if any (determined by each category of asset or liability as compared to a Fund’s total net assets). Level 3 holdings include investments valued using unadjusted prices supplied by a third-party pricing source (e.g., broker quotes, vendor). Emerging Country Debt Fund’s Level 3 holdings also include the Republic of Albania Par Bond, due 8/31/25, which is valued by applying a 140 basis point spread to the yield of the U.S. Treasury Strip Principal, due 8/15/25, Empresa Nacional de Electricidad SA, due 2/01/97 which is valued based on a comparable bond and applying a 200 basis point discount for liquidity considerations and a Republic of Kenya loan agreement, which is valued by applying 500 basis point yield spread to a comparable bond. Opportunistic Income Fund’s Level 3 holdings also consists of three U.S. Agency for International Development Floater Bonds which were valued using current LIBOR yield and adjusted by 125 basis points for liquidity considerations and nine asset backed securities which were either adjusted for additional cashflow projections discounted for timing and likelihood of receipt or valued based on a comparable bond. There were no other Funds with classes of investments or derivatives with direct material Level 3 holdings at February 28, 2021.

The table does not include Level 3 securities or derivatives that are valued by pricing vendors or brokers. As of February 28, 2021, the value of these securities and/or derivatives for Emerging Country Debt Fund and Opportunistic Income Fund was $244,252,216 and $3,798,149, respectively. The inputs for these investments are not readily available or cannot be reasonably estimated.

Cash

Cash and foreign currency, if any, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities consist of cash balances held with the custodian.

Due to/from broker

Due to/from broker in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities includes collateral on swap contracts, futures contracts, option contracts and forward currency contracts, if any, and may include marked-to-market amounts related to foreign currency or cash owed.

Foreign currency translation

The market values of foreign securities, currency holdings and related assets and liabilities are typically translated into U.S. dollars at the close of regular trading on the NYSE, generally at 4:00 pm Eastern time. Income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are typically translated into U.S. dollars at the close of regular trading on the NYSE. Fluctuations in the value of currency holdings and other assets and liabilities resulting from changes in exchange rates are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gains or losses. Realized gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investment securities and income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not separated in the Statements of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.

Indexed investments

Each Fund may invest in various transactions and instruments that are designed to track the performance of an index (including, but not limited to, securities indices and credit default indices). Indexed securities are securities the redemption values and/or coupons of which are indexed to a specific instrument, group of instruments, index, or other statistic. Indexed securities typically, but not always, are debt securities or deposits whose value at maturity or coupon rate is determined by reference to other securities, securities or inflation indices, currencies, precious metals or other commodities, or other financial indicators. For example, the maturity value of gold-indexed securities depends on the price of gold and, therefore, their price tends to rise and fall with gold prices.

Loan assignments and participations

The Funds (except U.S. Treasury Fund) may invest in direct debt instruments, which are interests in amounts owed to lenders or lending syndicates, to suppliers of goods or services, or to other parties by corporate, governmental or other borrower. Such “loans” may include bank loans, promissory notes, and loan participations, or in the case of suppliers of goods or services, trade claims or other receivables. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. Unless, under the terms of the loan or other indebtedness a Fund has direct recourse against the borrower, it may have to rely on the agent to enforce its rights against the borrower. When investing in a loan participation, (i) a Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the



				79

GMO Trust Funds

party from whom the Fund has purchased the participation and only upon receipt by that party of payments from the borrower and (ii) a Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement or to vote on matters arising under the loan agreement. Thus, a Fund may be subject to credit risk both of the party from whom it purchased the loan participation and the borrower and that Fund may have minimal control over the terms of any loan modification. Loan assignments and participations outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Rights and warrants

The Funds may purchase or otherwise receive warrants or rights. Warrants and rights generally give the holder the right to receive, upon exercise, a security of the issuer at a set price. Funds typically use warrants and rights in a manner similar to their use of purchased options on securities, as described in the section entitled “Options” in Note 4 “Derivative financial instruments”. Risks associated with the use of warrants and rights are generally similar to risks associated with the use of purchased options. However, warrants and rights often do not have standardized terms, and may have longer maturities and may be less liquid than exchange-traded options. In addition, the terms of warrants or rights may limit a Fund’s ability to exercise the warrants or rights at such times and in such quantities as the Fund would otherwise wish. Rights and/or warrants outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Repurchase agreements

The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements with banks and brokers. Under a repurchase agreement, a Fund acquires a security for a relatively short period for cash and obtains a simultaneous commitment from the seller to repurchase the security at an agreed upon price and date. The Fund, through its custodian, takes possession of securities it acquired under the repurchase agreement. The value of the securities acquired may be less than the amount owed to the Fund by the seller. If the seller in a repurchase agreement transaction defaults or enters into insolvency proceedings and the value of the securities subject to the repurchase agreement is insufficient, the Fund’s recovery of cash from the seller may be delayed and, even if the Fund is able to dispose of the securities, the Fund may incur a loss equal to the difference between the cash it paid and the value of the securities. Repurchase agreements outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Reverse repurchase agreements

The Funds may enter into reverse repurchase agreements with banks and brokers to enhance return. Under a reverse repurchase agreement a Fund sells portfolio assets subject to an agreement by that Fund to repurchase the same assets at an agreed upon price and date. A Fund can use the proceeds received from entering into a reverse repurchase agreement to make additional investments, which generally causes the Fund’s portfolio to behave as if it were leveraged. If the buyer in a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund may be unable to recover the securities it sold and as a result may realize a loss on the transaction if the securities it sold are worth more than the purchase price it originally received from the buyer. As of February 28, 2021, the Funds listed below had entered into reverse repurchase agreements.



Fund Name	Received from reverse repurchase agreements ($)		Market value of securities plus accrued interest ($)
Emerging Country Debt Fund		6,685,232		6,435,625

As of February 28, 2021, Emerging Country Debt Fund had investments in reverse repurchase agreements with J.P. Morgan Securities plc with a gross value of $6,685,232. The value of related collateral on reverse repurchase agreements exceeded the value at year end. As of February 28, 2021, the reverse repurchase agreements held by Emerging Country Debt Fund had open maturity dates.

Reverse repurchase agreements outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Inflation-indexed bonds

The Funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is adjusted periodically according to the rate of inflation/deflation. Two structures are common. The U.S. Treasury and some other issuers use a structure that accrues inflation/deflation into the principal value of the bond. Many other issuers adjust the coupon accruals for inflation related changes.

The market price of inflation-indexed bonds normally changes when real interest rates change. Real interest rates, in turn, are tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates (i.e. stated interest rates) and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if the rate of inflation rises at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates (i.e. nominal interest rate minus inflation) might decline, leading to an increase in value of inflation-indexed bonds. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increase at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds. Coupon payments received by a Fund from inflation-indexed bonds are generally included in the Fund’s gross income for the period in which they accrue. In addition, any increase/decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond is generally included in the Fund’s gross income even though principal is not paid until maturity. Inflation-indexed bonds outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Delayed delivery commitments and when-issued securities

The Funds (except U.S. Treasury Fund) may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. Payment and delivery may take place a month or more after the date of the transaction. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The purchase of when-issued or delayed delivery securities can cause a Fund’s portfolio to be leveraged. Investments in when-issued securities also present the risk that the security will not be issued or delivered. Delayed delivery commitments outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Short sales

Certain Funds may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which a Fund sells securities it may not own in anticipation of a decline in the fair market value of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and the dividend and/or interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. A Fund is obligated to deliver securities at the trade price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested. Short sales outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Taxes and distributions

Each Fund has elected to be treated or intends to elect to be treated and intends to qualify each tax year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Each Fund intends to distribute its net investment income, if any, and its net realized short-term and long-term capital gains, if any, after giving effect to any available capital loss carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, each Fund makes no provision for U.S. federal income or excise taxes.

With the exception of U.S. Treasury Fund, the policy of each Fund is to declare and pay dividends of its net investment income, if any, at least annually, although the Funds are permitted to, and will from time to time, declare and pay dividends of net investment income, if any, more frequently. The policy of U.S. Treasury Fund is to declare dividends daily, to the extent net investment income is available. U.S. Treasury Fund will generally pay dividends on the first business day following the end of each month in which dividends were declared. Accrued dividends in respect of a shareholder’s partial redemption of U.S. Treasury Fund shares redeemed between monthly payment dates will be paid on the first business day following the end of the month in which redemptions are made. Accrued dividends in respect of a shareholder’s complete redemption of U.S. Treasury Fund shares between monthly payment dates will be paid with the redemption proceeds. Each Fund also intends to distribute net realized short-term and long-term capital gains, if any, at least annually. In addition, each Fund may, from time to time at their discretion, make unscheduled distributions in advance of large redemptions by shareholders or as otherwise deemed appropriate by a Fund. Typically, all distributions are reinvested in additional shares of each Fund, at net asset value, unless GMO or its agents receive and process a shareholder election to receive cash distributions. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date.

Taxes on foreign interest and dividend income are generally withheld in accordance with the applicable country’s tax treaty with the United States. The foreign withholding rates applicable to a Fund’s investments in certain jurisdictions may be higher if a significant portion of the Fund is held by non-U.S. shareholders. Each Fund may be subject to taxation on realized capital gains, repatriation proceeds and other transaction-based charges imposed by certain countries in which it invests. Transaction-based charges are generally calculated as a percentage of the transaction amount. Taxes related to capital gains realized during the year ended February 28, 2021, if any, are reflected as part of Net realized gain (loss) in the Statements of Operations. Changes in tax liabilities related to capital gain taxes on unrealized investment gains, if any, are reflected as part of Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statements of Operations.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Certain capital accounts in the financial statements are periodically adjusted for permanent differences in order to reflect their tax character. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or net asset value per share. Temporary differences that arise from recognizing certain items of income, expense, gain or loss in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes will likely reverse at some time in the future.

The Funds are subject to authoritative guidance related to the accounting and disclosure of uncertain tax positions under U.S. GAAP. A Fund may recognize an income tax liability related to an uncertain tax position under U.S. GAAP when the uncertain tax position has a less than 50% probability that it would be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities, based on technical merits. United States and non-U.S. tax rules (including the interpretation and application of tax laws) are subject to change. The Funds file tax returns and/or adopt certain tax positions in various jurisdictions. Non-U.S. taxes are provided for based on the Funds’ understanding of the prevailing tax rules of the non-U.S. markets in which they invest. Recently enacted tax rules, including interpretations of tax laws and tax legislation/initiatives currently under consideration in various jurisdictions, including the U.S., might affect the way the Funds and their investors are taxed prospectively and/or retroactively. Prior to the expiration of the relevant statutes of limitations, if any, the Funds are subject to examination by U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. jurisdictions with respect to the tax returns they have filed and the tax positions they have adopted. The Funds’ U.S. federal income tax returns are generally subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years after they are filed. State, local and/or non-U.S. tax returns and/or other filings may be subject to examination for different periods, depending upon the tax rules of each applicable jurisdiction. As of February 28, 2021, each Fund has determined that no tax liability is required in its financial statements related to uncertain tax positions for any tax years which are subject to examination.

Security transactions and related investment income

Security transactions are accounted for in the financial statements on trade date. For purposes of daily net asset value calculations, the Funds’ policy is that security transactions are generally accounted for on the following business day. GMO may override that policy and a Fund may account for security transactions on trade date if it experiences significant purchases or redemptions or engages in significant portfolio transactions. Dividend income, net of applicable foreign withholding taxes, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, if later, when a Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions from underlying funds, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and is adjusted for the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Principal on inflation-indexed securities is adjusted for inflation/deflation and any increase or decrease is recorded as interest income or investment loss. Coupon income is not recognized on securities for which collection is not expected. Paydown gains and losses on mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, if any, are recorded as components of interest income in the Statements of Operations. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the asset received. In determining the net gain or loss on securities sold, the Funds use the identified cost basis.

Expenses and class allocations

Most of the expenses of the Trust are directly attributable to an individual Fund. Generally, common expenses are allocated among the Funds based on, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the Funds. Investment income, common expenses, purchase premiums and redemption fees, if any, and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated among the classes of shares of the Funds, if applicable, based on the relative net assets of each class. Shareholder service fees, if any, which are directly attributable to a class of shares, are charged to that class’s operations. In addition, the Funds may incur fees and expenses indirectly as a shareholder in the underlying funds. Because the underlying funds have different expense and fee levels and the Funds may own different proportions of the underlying funds at different times, the amount of fees and expenses indirectly incurred by a Fund will vary (see Note 5).

Custodian, Fund Accounting Agent and Transfer Agent

State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) serves as the Funds’ custodian, fund accounting agent and transfer agent. Cash balances maintained at the custodian and transfer agent are held in a Demand Deposit Account and interest income earned, if any, is shown as interest income in the Statements of Operations.

Purchases and redemptions of Fund shares

Purchase premiums and redemption fees (if applicable) are paid to and retained by a Fund to help offset estimated portfolio transaction costs and other related costs (e.g., bid to ask spreads, stamp duties, and transfer fees) incurred by the Fund directly or indirectly (e.g., through investments in underlying funds) as a result of an investor’s purchase or redemption by allocating estimated transaction costs to the purchasing or redeeming shareholder. Such fees are recorded as a component of the Funds’ net share transactions. A Fund may impose a new purchase premium and redemption fee or modify an existing fee at any time.

Purchase premiums are not charged on reinvestments of dividends or other distributions. Redemption fees apply to all shares of a Fund regardless of how the shares were acquired (e.g., by direct purchase or by reinvestment of dividends or other distributions).

If GMO determines that any portion of a cash purchase or redemption, as applicable, is offset by a corresponding cash redemption or purchase occurring on the same day, it ordinarily will waive or reduce the purchase premium or redemption fee with respect to that portion.

For example, GMO may reduce the purchase premium to the extent that securities are used to purchase a Fund’s shares (taking into account transaction costs, stamp duties or transfer fees), and GMO may reduce redemption fees to the extent a Fund uses portfolio securities to redeem its shares (taking into account transaction costs, stamp duties or transfer fees).

As of February 28, 2021, the premium on cash purchases and the fee on cash redemptions were as follows:



	Asset Allocation Bond Fund	Emerging Country Debt Fund⁽¹⁾	High Yield Fund	Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund (formerly Core Plus Bond Fund)	Opportunistic Income Fund⁽²⁾	U.S. Treasury Fund

Prior to February 1, 2016, the premiums on purchases and the fee on redemptions were each 0.50% of the amount invested or redeemed.

This section does not describe every potential risk of investing in the Funds. Funds could be subject to additional risks because of the types of investments they make and market conditions, which may change over time. Please see the Funds’ prospectus for more information regarding the risks of investing in the Funds.



				87

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

Each Fund that invests in other GMO Funds or other investment companies (collectively, “Underlying Funds”) is exposed to the risks to which the Underlying Funds in which it invests are exposed, as well as the risk that the Underlying Funds will not perform as expected. Therefore, unless otherwise noted, the selected risks summarized below include both direct and indirect risks, and references in this section to investments made by a Fund include those made both directly by the Fund and indirectly by the Fund through Underlying Funds.

An investment in a Fund is not a bank deposit and, therefore, is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

• COMMODITIES RISK. Commodity prices can be extremely volatile and are affected by many factors. Exposure to commodities can cause the value of a Fund’s shares to decline or fluctuate in a rapid and unpredictable manner. In addition, the value of commodity-related derivatives or indirect investments in commodities may fluctuate more than the commodity, commodities or commodity index to which they relate. See “Derivatives and Short Sales Risk” for a discussion of specific risks of a Fund’s derivatives investments, including commodity-related derivatives.

• COUNTERPARTY RISK. Funds that enter into contracts with counterparties, such as repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements or OTC derivatives contracts, or that lend their securities run the risk that the counterparty will be unable or unwilling to make timely settlement payments or otherwise honor its obligations. If a counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations, goes bankrupt, or otherwise experiences a business interruption, the Fund could miss investment opportunities or otherwise be forced to hold investments it would prefer to sell, resulting in losses for the Fund. In addition, a Fund may suffer losses if a counterparty fails to comply with applicable laws, regulations or other requirements. The Funds are not subject to any limit on their exposure to any one counterparty nor to a requirement that counterparties with whom they enter into contracts maintain a specific rating by a nationally recognized rating organization. Counterparty risk is pronounced during unusually adverse market conditions and is particularly acute in environments in which financial services firms are exposed (as they were in 2008) to systemic risks of the type evidenced by the insolvency of Lehman Brothers and subsequent market disruptions.

Participants in OTC derivatives markets typically are not subject to the same level of credit evaluation and regulatory oversight as are members of exchange-based markets, and, therefore, OTC derivatives generally expose a Fund to greater counterparty risk than exchange-traded derivatives. A Fund is subject to the risk that a counterparty will not settle a derivative in accordance with its terms because of a dispute over the terms of the contract (whether or not bona fide) or because of a credit or liquidity problem. If a counterparty’s obligation to a Fund is not collateralized, then the Fund is essentially an unsecured creditor of the counterparty. If a counterparty defaults, the Fund will have contractual remedies (whether or not the obligation is collateralized), but the Fund may be unable to enforce them, thus causing the Fund to suffer a loss. Counterparty risk is greater for derivatives with longer maturities because of the longer time during which events may occur that prevent settlement. Counterparty risk also is greater when a Fund has entered into derivatives contracts with a single or small group of counterparties as it sometimes does as a result of its use of swaps and other OTC derivatives. Funds that use swap contracts are subject, in particular, to the creditworthiness of the counterparties because some types of swap contracts have terms longer than six months (and, in some cases, decades). The creditworthiness of a counterparty can be expected to be adversely affected by greater than average volatility in the markets, even if the counterparty’s net market exposure is small relative to its capital. Counterparty risk still exists even if a counterparty’s obligations are secured by collateral if the Fund’s interest in the collateral is not perfected or additional collateral is not posted promptly as required. GMO’s view with respect to a particular counterparty is subject to change. The fact, however, that it changes adversely (whether due to external events or otherwise) does not mean that a Fund’s existing transactions with that counterparty will necessarily be terminated or modified. In addition, a Fund may enter into new transactions with a counterparty that GMO no longer considers a desirable counterparty (for example, re-establishing the transaction with a lower notional amount or entering into a countervailing trade with the same counterparty). Counterparty risk also will be greater if a counterparty’s obligations exceed the value of the collateral held by the Fund (if any).

through which it holds its cleared position. Credit risk of market participants with respect to derivatives that are centrally cleared is concentrated in a few clearing houses, and it is not clear how an insolvency proceeding of a clearing house would be conducted and what impact an insolvency of a clearing house would have on the financial system. Also, in the event of a counterparty’s (or its affiliate’s) insolvency, the possibility exists that the Funds’ ability to exercise remedies, such as the termination of transactions, netting of obligations or realization on collateral, could be stayed or eliminated under special resolution regimes adopted in the United States, the European Union and various other jurisdictions. Such regimes provide governmental authorities broad authority to intervene when a financial institution is experiencing financial difficulty. In particular, in the European Union, governmental authorities could reduce, eliminate, or convert to equity the liabilities to the Funds of a counterparty experiencing financial difficulties (sometimes referred to as a “bail in”).

• CREDIT RISK. This is the risk that the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income investment or the obligors of obligations underlying an asset-backed security will be unable or unwilling to satisfy their obligation to pay principal and interest or otherwise to honor their obligations in a timely manner. The market price of a fixed income investment will normally decline as a result (and/or in anticipation) of the issuer’s, guarantor’s, or obligors’ failure to meet their payment obligations or a downgrading of the credit rating of the investment. This risk is particularly acute in environments in which financial services firms are exposed (as they were in 2008) to systemic risks of the type evidenced by the insolvency of Lehman Brothers and subsequent market disruptions. Fixed income investments also are subject to illiquidity risk. See “Illiquidity Risk.”

All fixed income investments are subject to credit risk. Financial strength and solvency of an issuer are the primary factors influencing credit risk. The risk varies depending upon whether the issuer is a corporation, a government or government entity, whether the particular security has a priority over other obligations of the issuer in payment of principal and interest and whether it has any collateral backing or credit enhancement. Credit risk may change over the term of a fixed income investment. U.S. government securities are subject to varying degrees of credit risk depending upon whether the securities are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States, supported by the ability to borrow from the U.S. Treasury, supported only by the credit of the issuing U.S. government agency, instrumentality, or corporation, or otherwise supported by the United States. For example, issuers of many types of U.S. government securities (e.g., the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”), and Federal Home Loan Banks), although chartered or sponsored by Congress, are not funded by Congressional appropriations and their fixed income securities, including mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities, are neither guaranteed nor insured by the U.S. government. These securities are subject to more credit risk than U.S. government securities that are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States (e.g., U.S. Treasury bonds). Investments in sovereign or quasi-sovereign debt involve the risk that the governmental entities responsible for repayment will be unable or unwilling to pay interest and repay principal when due. A governmental entity’s ability and willingness to pay interest and repay principal in a timely manner can be expected to be affected by a variety of factors, including its cash flow, the size of its reserves, its access to foreign exchange, the relative size of its debt service burden to its economy as a whole, and political constraints. Investments in quasi-sovereign issuers are subject to the additional risk that the issuer will default independently of its sovereign. Sovereign debt risk is greater for fixed income securities issued or guaranteed by emerging countries.

In many cases, the credit risk and market price of a fixed income investment are reflected in its credit ratings, and a Fund holding a rated investment is subject to the risk that the investment’s rating will be downgraded, resulting in a decrease in the market price of the fixed income investment.

Securities issued by the U.S. government historically have presented minimal credit risk. However, events in 2011 led several major rating agencies to downgrade the long-term credit rating of U.S. bonds and introduced greater uncertainty about the repayment by the United States of its obligations. A further credit rating downgrade could decrease, and a default in the payment of principal or interest on U.S. government securities would decrease, the market price of a Fund’s investments and increase the volatility of a Fund’s portfolio.

As described under “Market Risk — Asset-Backed Securities,” asset-backed securities may be backed by many types of assets and their payment of interest and repayment of principal largely depend on the cash flows generated by the assets backing them. The credit risk of a particular asset-backed security depends on many factors, as described under “Market Risk — Asset-Backed Securities.” The obligations of issuers also may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors.

A Fund also is exposed to credit risk on a reference security to the extent it writes protection under credit default swaps. See “Derivatives and Short Sales Risk” for more information regarding risks associated with the use of credit default swaps.

The extent to which the market price of a fixed income investment changes in response to a credit event depends on many factors and can be difficult to predict. For example, even though the effective duration of a long-term floating rate security is very short, an adverse credit event or change in the perceived creditworthiness of its issuer could cause its market price to decline much more than its effective duration would suggest.

Credit risk is particularly pronounced for below investment grade investments (commonly referred to as “high yield” or “junk bonds”). The sovereign debt of many non-U.S. governments, including their sub-divisions and instrumentalities, is below investment grade. Many asset-backed securities also are below investment grade. Below investment grade investments have speculative characteristics, often are less liquid than higher quality investments, present a greater risk of default and are more susceptible to real or perceived adverse industry conditions. Investments in distressed or defaulted or other low quality debt investments generally are considered speculative and typically involve substantial risks not normally associated with investments in higher quality investments, including adverse business, financial or economic conditions that lead to payment defaults and insolvency proceedings on the part of their issuers. In particular, distressed or defaulted obligations might be repaid, if at all, only after lengthy workout or bankruptcy proceedings, during which the issuer does not make any interest or other payments and a Fund incurs additional expenses in seeking recovery. If GMO’s assessment of the eventual recovery value of a distressed or defaulted debt investment proves incorrect, a Fund is likely to lose a substantial portion or all of its investment or may be required to accept cash or instruments worth less than its original investment. In the event of a default of sovereign debt, the Funds may be unable to pursue legal action against the issuer.

• CURRENCY RISK. Currency risk is the risk that fluctuations in exchange rates will adversely affect the market value of a Fund’s investments. Currency risk includes the risk that the currencies in which a Fund’s investments are traded, in which a Fund receives income, or in which a Fund has taken a position will decline in value. Currency risk also includes the risk that the currency to which the Fund has obtained exposure through hedging declines in value relative to the currency being hedged, in which event the Fund is likely to realize a loss on both the hedging instrument and the currency being hedged. Currency exchange rates can fluctuate significantly for many reasons. See “Market Disruption and Geopolitical Risk.”

Many of the Funds use derivatives to take currency positions that are under- or over-weighted (in some cases significantly) relative to the currency exposure of their portfolios and their benchmarks. If the exchange rates of the currencies involved do not move as expected, a Fund could lose money on both its holdings of a particular currency and the derivative. See also “Non-U.S. Investment Risk.”

Some currencies are illiquid (e.g., some emerging country currencies), and a Fund may not be able to convert them into U.S. dollars or may only be able to do so at an unfavorable exchange rate. Exchange rates for many currencies are affected by exchange control regulations.

Derivative transactions in foreign currencies (such as futures, forward contracts, options and swaps) may involve leveraging risk in addition to currency risk, as described under “Leveraging Risk.” In addition, the obligations of counterparties in currency derivative transactions are often not secured by collateral, which increases counterparty risk (see “Counterparty Risk”).

• DERIVATIVES AND SHORT SALES RISK. All of the Funds may invest in derivatives, which are financial contracts whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of underlying assets, such as securities, commodities or currencies, reference rates, such as interest rates, currency exchange rates or inflation rates, or indices. Derivatives involve the risk that their value may not change as expected relative to changes in the value of the assets, rates, or indices they are designed to track. Derivatives include, but are not limited to, futures contracts, forward contracts, foreign currency contracts, swap contracts, contracts for differences, options on securities and indices, options on futures contracts, options on swap contracts, interest rate caps, floors and collars, reverse repurchase agreements, and other OTC contracts.

The use of derivatives involves risks that are in addition to, and potentially greater than, the risks of investing directly in securities. In particular, a Fund’s use of OTC derivatives exposes it to the risk that the counterparties will be unable or unwilling to make timely settlement payments or otherwise honor their obligations. An OTC derivatives contract typically can be closed, or the position transferred, only with the consent of the other party to the contract. If the counterparty defaults, the Fund will still have contractual remedies but may not be able to enforce them. Because the contract for each OTC derivative is individually negotiated, the

counterparty may interpret contractual terms (e.g., the definition of default) differently than the Fund, and if it does, the Fund may decide not to pursue its claims against the counterparty to avoid the cost and unpredictability of legal proceedings. The Fund, therefore, runs the risk of being unable to obtain payments GMO believes are owed to it under an OTC derivatives contract or of those payments being delayed or made only after the Fund has incurred the cost of litigation.

A Fund may invest in derivatives that (i) do not require the counterparty to post collateral (e.g., forward currency contracts), (ii) require collateral but that do not provide for the Fund’s security interest in it to be perfected, (iii) require a significant upfront deposit by the Fund unrelated to the derivative’s fundamental fair (or intrinsic) value, or (iv) do not require that collateral be regularly marked-to-market. When a counterparty’s obligations are not fully secured by collateral, a Fund runs a greater risk of not being able to recover what it is owed if the counterparty defaults. Derivatives also present other risks described in this section, including market risk, illiquidity risk, currency risk, credit risk, and counterparty risk.

Many derivatives, in particular OTC derivatives, are complex and their valuation often requires modeling and judgment, which increases the risk of mispricing or improper valuation and exposes the Funds to the risk that the pricing models used do not produce valuations that are consistent with the values the Funds realize when they close or sell an OTC derivative. Valuation risk is more pronounced when a Fund enters into OTC derivatives with specialized terms because the value of those derivatives in some cases is determined only by reference to similar derivatives with more standardized terms. As a result, the Funds run a risk that inaccurate valuations will result in increased cash payments to counterparties, under-collateralization and/or errors in the calculation of the Funds’ net asset values.

A Fund’s use of derivatives may not be effective or have the desired results. Moreover, suitable derivatives will not be available in all circumstances. For example, the cost of taking some derivative positions may be prohibitive, and if a counterparty or its affiliate is deemed to be an affiliate of a Fund, the Funds will not be permitted to trade with that counterparty.

Swap contracts and other OTC derivatives are highly susceptible to illiquidity risk (see “Illiquidity Risk”) and counterparty risk (see “Counterparty Risk”). These derivatives also are subject to documentation risk, which is the risk that ambiguities, inconsistencies or errors in the documentation relating to a derivative transaction will lead to a dispute with the counterparty or unintended investment results. In addition, see “Commodities Risk” for a discussion of risks specific to commodity-related derivatives. Because many derivatives have a leverage component (i.e. a notional value in excess of the assets needed to establish and/or maintain the derivative position), adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, rate or index could result in a loss substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivative itself. See “Leveraging Risk.”

Special tax rules apply to a Fund’s transactions in derivatives, which could increase the taxes payable by shareholders subject to U.S. income taxation. In particular, a Fund’s derivative transactions potentially could cause a substantial portion of the Fund’s distributions to be taxable at ordinary income tax rates. In addition, the tax treatment of a Fund’s use of derivatives will sometimes be unclear. See the Funds’ Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for more information.

Derivatives Regulation. The U.S. government has enacted legislation that provides for regulation of the derivatives market, including clearing, margin, reporting, and registration requirements. The European Union (and some other countries) have adopted similar requirements, which affect a Fund when it enters into a derivatives transaction with a counterparty subject to those requirements. Because these requirements are evolving, their impact on the Funds remains unclear.

Transactions in some types of swaps (including interest rate swaps and credit default swaps on North American and European indices) are required to be centrally cleared. In a transaction involving those swaps (“cleared derivatives”), a Fund’s counterparty is a clearing house rather than a bank or broker. Since the Funds are not members of clearing houses and only members of a clearing house (“clearing members”) can participate directly in the clearing house, the Funds hold cleared derivatives through accounts at clearing members. In cleared derivative positions, the Funds make payments (including margin payments) to and receive payments from a clearing house through their accounts at clearing members. Clearing members guarantee performance of their clients’ obligations to the clearing house.

to increase the margin required for existing positions or to terminate those positions at any time. Any increase in margin requirements or termination of existing cleared derivative positions by the clearing member or the clearing house could interfere with the ability of a Fund to pursue its investment strategy, and any increase in margin held by a clearing member could expose a Fund to greater credit risk to its clearing member. Also, a Fund is subject to risk if it enters into a derivatives transaction that is required to be cleared (or that GMO expects to be cleared) and no clearing member is willing or able to clear the transaction on the Fund’s behalf. In those cases, the position might have to be terminated, and the Fund could lose some or all of the benefit of the position, including loss of an increase in the value of the position and loss of hedging protection. In addition, the documentation governing the relationship between the Funds and clearing members generally is less favorable to the Funds than the documentation for typical bilateral derivatives. For example, documentation relating to cleared derivatives generally includes a one-way indemnity by the Funds in favor of the clearing member for losses the clearing member incurs as the Funds’ clearing member. Also, such documentation typically does not provide the Funds any remedies if the clearing member defaults or becomes insolvent. While futures contracts entail similar risks, the risks are likely to be more pronounced for cleared derivatives due to their more limited liquidity and market history.

Some types of cleared derivatives are required to be executed on an exchange or on a swap execution facility. A swap execution facility is a trading platform where multiple market participants can execute derivatives by accepting bids and offers made by multiple other participants in the platform. While this execution requirement is designed to increase transparency and liquidity in the cleared derivatives market, trading on a swap execution facility can create additional costs for the Funds. For example, swap execution facilities typically charge fees, and if a Fund executes derivatives on a swap execution facility through a broker intermediary, the intermediary may impose fees as well. Also, a Fund may be required to indemnify a swap execution facility, or a broker intermediary who executes cleared derivatives on a swap execution facility on the Fund’s behalf, against any losses or costs that may be incurred as a result of the Fund’s transactions on the swap execution facility.

If a Fund wishes to execute a package of transactions that include a swap that is required to be executed on a swap execution facility as well as other transactions (for example, a transaction that includes both a security and an interest rate swap that hedges interest rate exposure with respect to such security), the Fund may be unable to execute all components of the package on the swap execution facility. In that case, the Fund would need to trade some components of the package on the swap execution facility and other components in another manner, which could subject the Fund to the risk that some components would be executed successfully and others would not, or that the components would be executed at different times, leaving the Fund with an unhedged position for a period of time.

The U.S. government and the European Union have adopted mandatory minimum margin requirements for bilateral derivatives. Variation margin requirements became effective in March 2017 and initial margin requirements will become effective in 2021 or 2022. Such requirements could increase the amount of margin a Fund needs to post in connection with its derivatives transactions and, therefore, make derivatives transactions more expensive.

These and other rules and regulations could, among other things, further restrict a Fund’s ability to engage in, or increase the cost to the Fund of, derivatives transactions, for example, by making some types of derivatives no longer available to the Fund or otherwise limiting liquidity. The implementation of the clearing requirement has increased the cost of derivatives transactions for the Funds, since the Funds have to pay fees to their clearing members and are typically required to post more margin for cleared derivatives than they historically posted for bilateral derivatives. The cost of derivatives transactions is expected to increase further as clearing members raise their fees to cover the cost of additional capital requirements and other regulatory changes applicable to the clearing members. These rules and regulations are evolving, and, therefore, their potential impact on the Funds and the financial system are not yet known. While these rules and regulations and central clearing of some derivatives transactions are designed to reduce systemic risk (i.e. the risk that the interdependence of large derivatives dealers could cause them to suffer liquidity, solvency or other challenges simultaneously), there is no assurance that they will achieve that result, and in the meantime, as noted above, central clearing and related requirements expose the Funds to different kinds of costs and risks.

The SEC recently reproposed a rule under the 1940 Act regulating the use by registered investment companies of derivatives and many related instruments. The ultimate impact, if any, of such a rule is unclear, but the reproposed rule, if adopted, could, among other things, restrict a Fund’s ability to continue to engage in derivatives transactions in the manner it has historically and increase the costs of derivatives transactions, which could have an adverse impact on a Fund’s performance.

remaining before expiration; changes in interest rates or exchange rates; and changes in the actual or perceived volatility of the relevant stock market and underlying securities. The market price of an option also may be adversely affected if the market for the option becomes less liquid. In addition, since an American-style option allows the holder to exercise its rights at any time before the option’s expiration, the writer of an American-style option has no control over when it will be required to fulfill its obligations as a writer of the option. (The writer of a European-style option is not subject to this risk because the holder may only exercise the option on its expiration date). If a Fund writes a call option and does not hold the underlying security or instrument, the Fund’s potential loss is theoretically unlimited.

National securities exchanges generally have established limits on the maximum number of options an investor or group of investors acting in concert may write. A Fund, GMO, and other funds advised by GMO likely constitute such a group. When applicable, these limits restrict a Fund’s ability to purchase or write options on a particular security.

Unlike exchange-traded options, which are standardized with respect to the underlying instrument, expiration date, contract size, and strike price, the terms of OTC options (i.e. options not traded on exchanges) generally are established through negotiation with the other party to the option contract. While a Fund has greater flexibility to tailor an OTC option, OTC options generally expose a Fund to greater credit risk than exchange-traded options, which are guaranteed by the clearing organization of the exchanges where they are traded. Purchasing and writing put and call options are highly specialized activities and entail greater than ordinary market risks.

Short Investment Exposure. Some Funds may sell securities or currencies short as part of their investment programs in an attempt to increase their returns or for hedging purposes. Short sales expose a Fund to the risk that it will be required to acquire, convert, or exchange a security or currency to replace the borrowed security or currency when the security or currency sold short has appreciated in value, thus resulting in a loss to the Fund. Purchasing a security or currency to close out a short position can itself cause the price of the security or currency to rise further, thereby exacerbating any losses. A Fund that sells short a security or currency it does not own typically pays borrowing fees to a broker and is required to pay the broker any dividends or interest it receives on a borrowed security.

A Fund also may create short investment exposure by taking a derivative position in which the value of the derivative moves in the opposite direction from the price of an underlying asset, pool of assets, rate, currency or index.

Short sales of securities or currencies a Fund does not own and “short” derivative positions involve forms of investment leverage, and the amount of the Fund’s potential loss is theoretically unlimited. A Fund is subject to increased leveraging risk and other investment risks described in this “Investment and other risks” section to the extent it sells short securities or currencies it does not own or takes “short” derivative positions.

• FOCUSED INVESTMENT RISK. Funds with investments that are focused in a limited number of asset classes, sectors, industries, issuers, currencies, countries, or regions (or in sectors within a country or region) that are subject to the same or similar risk factors and Funds with investments whose prices are closely correlated are subject to greater overall risk than Funds with investments that are more diversified or whose prices are not as closely correlated.

A Fund that invests in the securities of a small number of issuers has greater exposure to adverse developments affecting those issuers and to a decline in the market price of those issuers’ securities than Funds investing in the securities of a larger number of issuers. Securities, sectors, or companies that share common characteristics are often subject to similar business risks and regulatory burdens and often react similarly to specific economic, market, political or other developments.

Similarly, Funds having a significant portion of their assets in investments tied economically to a particular geographic region, country or market (e.g., emerging markets), or to sectors within a region, country, or market (e.g., Russian oil) have more exposure to regional and country economic risks than do funds making investments throughout the world. The political and economic prospects of one country or group of countries within the same geographic region may affect other countries in that region, and a recession, debt crisis or decline in the value of the currency of one country can spread to other countries. Furthermore, companies in a particular geographic region or country are vulnerable to events affecting other companies in that region or country because they often share common characteristics, are exposed to similar business risks and regulatory burdens, and react similarly to specific economic, market, political or other developments. See also “Non-U.S. Investment Risk.”

• FUND OF FUNDS RISK. A Fund that invests in Underlying Funds (including underlying GMO Funds) is exposed to the risk that the Underlying Funds will not perform as expected. A Fund also is indirectly exposed to all of the risks to which the Underlying Funds are exposed.



				93

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

Because, absent reimbursement, a Fund bears the fees and expenses of an Underlying Fund (including purchase premiums and redemption fees, if any), the Fund will incur additional expenses when investing in an Underlying Fund. In addition, total Fund expenses will increase if a Fund makes a new or further investment in Underlying Funds with higher fees or expenses than the average fees and expenses of the Underlying Funds then in the Fund’s portfolio.

In addition, to the extent a Fund invests in shares of underlying GMO Funds, it is indirectly subject to Large Shareholder Risk when an underlying GMO Fund has large shareholders (e.g., other GMO Funds). See “Large Shareholder Risk.”

At any particular time, one Underlying Fund may be purchasing securities of an issuer whose securities are being sold by another Underlying Fund, resulting in a Fund that holds each Underlying Fund indirectly incurring the costs associated with the two transactions without changing its exposure to those securities.

Investments in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) involve the risk that an ETF’s performance will not track the performance of the index it is designed to track. In addition, ETFs often use derivatives to track the performance of an index, and, therefore, investments in those ETFs are subject to the same derivatives risks discussed in “Derivatives and Short Sales Risk.” ETFs are investment companies that typically hold a portfolio of securities designed to track the price, performance, and dividend yield of a particular securities market index (or sector of an index). As investment companies, ETFs incur their own management and other fees and expenses, such as trustee fees, operating expenses, registration fees, and marketing expenses, and a Fund that invests in ETFs bears a proportionate share of such fees and expenses. As a result, an investment by a Fund in an ETF could result in higher expenses and lower returns than if the Fund were to invest directly in the securities underlying the ETF.

A Fund’s investments in one or more Underlying Funds could affect the amount, timing and character of its distributions and could cause the Fund to recognize taxable income in excess of the cash generated by such investments, requiring the Fund in turn to liquidate investments at disadvantageous times to generate cash needed to make required distributions.

The SEC recently adopted a rule that will change the regulatory framework under which some registered investment companies are permitted to invest in other registered investment companies (the “Fund of Funds Rule”). The impact of the Fund of Funds Rule is still under review but could adversely affect the Funds by, among other things, limiting the number of shares of other registered investment companies (such as other Funds or exchange-traded funds) or pooled investment vehicles that a Fund is permitted to purchase.

• FUTURES CONTRACTS RISK. The risk of loss to a Fund resulting from its use of futures contracts (or “futures”) is potentially unlimited. Futures markets are highly volatile, and the use of futures contracts increases the volatility of the Fund’s net asset value. A Fund’s ability to establish and close out positions in futures contracts is subject to the development and maintenance of a liquid secondary market. A liquid secondary market may not exist for any particular futures contract at any particular time, and a Fund might be unable to effect closing transactions to terminate its exposure to the contract. In using futures contracts, a Fund relies on GMO’s ability to predict market and price movements correctly. The skills needed to use futures contracts successfully are different from those needed for traditional portfolio management. If a Fund uses futures contracts for hedging purposes, it runs the risk that changes in the prices of the contracts will not correlate perfectly with changes in the securities, index, or other asset underlying the contracts or movements in the prices of the Fund’s investments that are the subject of the hedge.

A Fund typically will be required to post margin with its futures commission merchant in connection with its positions in futures contracts. If the Fund has insufficient cash to meet margin requirements, the Fund typically will have to sell other investments at disadvantageous times. A Fund also runs the risk of being unable to recover or be delayed in recovering margin or other amounts deposited with a futures commission merchant or futures clearinghouse. For example, should the futures commission merchant become insolvent, a Fund may be unable to recover all (or any) of the margin it has deposited or realize the value of any increase in the price of its positions.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) and the various exchanges have established limits (referred to as “speculative position limits”) on the maximum net long or net short positions that any person and certain of its affiliated entities may hold or control in a particular futures contract. In addition, an exchange may impose trading limits on the number of contracts a person may trade on a particular day. An exchange may order the liquidation of positions found to be in violation of these limits, and it may impose sanctions or restrictions. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act requires the CFTC to establish speculative position limits on listed futures and economically equivalent OTC derivatives, and those limits may adversely



94

GMO Trust Funds

affect the market liquidity of those futures and derivatives. As a result of such limits, positions held by other GMO clients or by GMO or its affiliates could prevent GMO from taking positions on behalf of a Fund in a particular futures contract or OTC derivative.

Futures contracts traded on markets outside the United States are not subject to regulation by the CFTC or other U.S. regulators. U.S. regulators neither regulate the activities of a foreign exchange nor have the power to compel enforcement of the rules of a foreign exchange or the laws of the country where the exchange is located. In addition, foreign futures contracts may be less liquid and more volatile than U.S. contracts.

• ILLIQUIDITY RISK. Illiquidity risk is the risk that low trading volume, lack of a market maker, large position size, or legal restrictions (including daily price fluctuation limits or “circuit breakers”) limits, delays or prevents a Fund from selling particular securities or closing derivative positions at desirable prices. In addition to these risks, a Fund is exposed to illiquidity risk when it has an obligation to purchase particular securities (e.g., as a result of entering into reverse repurchase agreements, writing a put, or closing a short position). To the extent a Fund’s investments include asset-backed securities, distressed, defaulted or other low quality debt securities, emerging country debt or equity securities or securities of companies with smaller market capitalizations or smaller total float-adjusted market capitalizations, it is subject to increased illiquidity risk. These types of investments can be difficult to value, exposing a Fund to the risk that the price at which it sells them will be less than the price at which they were valued when held by the Fund. Illiquidity risk also tends to be greater in times of financial stress. For example, inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury (“TIPS”) have experienced periods of greatly reduced liquidity during disruptions in fixed income markets, such as the events surrounding the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers in 2008. Less liquid securities are often more susceptible than other securities to price declines when market prices decline generally.

A Fund may buy securities or other investments that are less liquid than those in its benchmark. The more illiquid investments a Fund has, the greater the likelihood of its paying redemption proceeds in-kind.

The Board of Trustees has designated GMO as administrator to the Funds’ liquidity risk management program, which was adopted by the Funds pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act. Under that program, each Fund is required to classify its investments into specific liquidity categories and monitor compliance with limits on illiquid investments. The term “illiquid investments” for purposes of the program means investments that GMO reasonably expects cannot be sold or disposed of under current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investments. While the liquidity risk management program is designed to assist in the assessment and management of illiquidity risk, there is no guarantee it will be effective in reducing the illiquidity risk inherent in a Fund’s investments.

Historically, credit markets have experienced periods characterized by a significant lack of liquidity, and they may experience similar periods in the future. If a Fund is required to sell illiquid investments to satisfy collateral posting requirements or to meet redemptions, those sales could put significant downward price pressure on the market price of the securities being sold.

A Fund’s ability to use options as part of its investment program depends on the liquidity of the options market. That market may not be liquid when a Fund seeks to close out an option position, and the hours of trading for options on an exchange may not conform to the hours during which the underlying securities are traded. To the extent that the options markets close before the markets for the underlying securities, significant price and rate movements can take place in the markets for those securities that are not immediately reflected in the options markets. If a Fund receives a redemption request and is unable to close out an option it has sold, the Fund would temporarily be leveraged in relation to its assets.

• LARGE SHAREHOLDER RISK. To the extent a large number of shares of a Fund is held by a single shareholder (e.g., an institutional investor or another GMO Fund) or a group of shareholders with a common investment strategy (e.g., GMO asset allocation accounts), the Fund is subject to the risk that a redemption by those shareholders of all or a large portion of their Fund shares will adversely affect the Fund’s performance by forcing the Fund to sell portfolio securities, at disadvantageous prices to raise the cash needed to satisfy the redemption request. In addition, the Funds and other accounts over which GMO has investment discretion that invest in the Funds are not limited in how often they may sell Fund shares. The Asset Allocation Funds and separate accounts managed by GMO for its clients hold substantial percentages of the outstanding shares of many Funds, and asset allocation decisions by GMO may result in substantial redemptions from (or investments in) those Funds, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is required to sell investments when it would not have otherwise done so. Redemptions of a large number of shares also may increase transaction costs or, by necessitating a sale of portfolio securities, have adverse tax consequences for Fund shareholders. Further, from time to time a Fund may trade in anticipation of a purchase or redemption order



				95

GMO Trust Funds

that ultimately is not received or differs in size from the actual order, leading to temporary underexposure or overexposure to the Fund’s intended investment program. In addition, redemptions and purchases of shares by a large shareholder or group of shareholders could limit the use of any capital losses (including capital loss carryforwards) to offset realized capital gains (if any) and other losses that would otherwise reduce distributable net investment income. In addition, large shareholders may limit or prevent a Fund’s use of equalization for U.S. federal tax purposes.

To the extent a Fund invests in other GMO Funds subject to large shareholder risk, the Fund is indirectly subject to this risk.

• LEVERAGING RISK. The use of traditional borrowing (including to meet redemption requests), reverse repurchase agreements and other derivatives and securities lending creates leverage (i.e. a Fund’s investment exposures exceed its net asset value). Leverage increases a Fund’s losses when the value of its investments (including derivatives) declines. Because many derivatives have a leverage component (i.e. a notional value in excess of the assets needed to establish or maintain the derivative position), adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, rate or index may result in a loss substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivative itself. In the case of swaps, the risk of loss generally is related to a notional principal amount, even if the parties have not made any initial investment. Some derivatives, similar to short sales, have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. Similarly, a Fund’s portfolio will be leveraged and can incur losses if the value of the Fund’s assets declines between the time a redemption request is received or deemed to be received by a Fund (which in some cases is the business day prior to actual receipt by the Fund of the redemption request) and the time at which the Fund liquidates assets to meet redemption requests. Such a decline in the value of a Fund’s assets is more likely in the case of Funds managed from GMO’s non-U.S. offices for which the time period between the determination of net asset value and corresponding liquidation of assets could be longer due to time zone differences. In the case of redemptions representing a significant portion of a Fund’s portfolio, the leverage effects described above can be significant and could expose a Fund and non-redeeming shareholders to material losses.

A Fund may manage some of its derivative positions by offsetting derivative positions against one another or against other assets. To the extent offsetting positions do not behave in relation to one another as expected, a Fund may perform as if it were leveraged.

Some Funds are permitted to purchase securities on margin or to sell securities short, either of which creates leverage. To the extent the market prices of securities pledged to counterparties to secure a Fund’s margin account or short sale decline, the Fund may be required to deposit additional funds with the counterparty to avoid having the pledged securities liquidated.

• MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONAL RISK. Each Fund is subject to management risk because it relies on GMO to achieve its investment objective. Each Fund runs the risk that GMO’s investment techniques will fail to produce desired results and cause the Fund to incur significant losses. GMO also may fail to use derivatives effectively, choosing to hedge or not to hedge positions at disadvantageous times.

For many Funds, GMO uses quantitative models as part of its investment process. Those Funds run the risk that GMO’s models will not accurately predict future market movements or characteristics. In addition, GMO’s models are based on assumptions that can limit their effectiveness, and they rely on data that is subject to limitations (e.g., inaccuracies, staleness) that could adversely affect their predictive value. The Funds also run the risk that GMO’s assessment of an investment (including a security’s fundamental fair (or intrinsic) value) is wrong. The usefulness of GMO’s models may be diminished by the faulty incorporation of mathematical models into computer code, by reliance on proprietary and third-party technology that includes errors, omissions, bugs, or viruses, and by the retrieval of limited or imperfect data for processing by the model. These risks are more likely to occur when GMO is making changes to its models. Any of these risks could adversely affect a Fund’s performance.

There can be no assurance that key GMO personnel will continue to be employed by GMO. The loss of their services could have an adverse impact on GMO’s ability to achieve the Funds’ investment objectives.

The Funds also are subject to operational risks resulting from other services provided by GMO and other service providers, including pricing, administrative, accounting, tax, legal, custody, transfer agency, and other operational services. Examples of such operational risks include the possibility of loss caused by inadequate procedures and controls, human error, and system failures by a service provider. For example, trading delays or errors could prevent a Fund from benefiting from investment gains or avoiding losses. In addition, a service provider may be unable to provide a net asset value for a Fund or share class on a timely basis. GMO is not contractually liable to the Funds for losses associated with operational risk absent its willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of its contractual obligations to provide services to the Funds. Other Fund service providers also have contractual limitations on their liability to the Funds for losses resulting from their errors.

The Funds and their service providers (including GMO) are susceptible to cyber-attacks and to technological malfunctions that have effects similar to those of a cyber-attack. Cyber-attacks include, among others, stealing or corrupting data maintained online or digitally, preventing legitimate users from accessing information or services on a website, releasing confidential information without authorization, and disrupting operations. Successful cyber-attacks against, or security breakdowns of, a Fund, GMO, a sub-adviser, or a custodian, transfer agent, or other service provider may adversely affect the Fund or its shareholders. For instance, cyber-attacks may interfere with the processing of shareholder transactions, affect a Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, cause the release or misappropriation of private shareholder information or confidential Fund information, impede trading, cause reputational damage, and subject the Fund to regulatory fines, penalties or financial losses and additional compliance costs. The Funds’ service providers regularly experience cyber-attacks and expect they will continue to do so. While GMO has established business continuity plans and systems designed to prevent, detect and respond to cyber-attacks, those plans and systems have inherent limitations. Similar types of cyber security risks also are present for issuers of securities in which the Funds invest, which could have material adverse consequences for those issuers and result in a decline in the market price of their securities. Furthermore, as a result of cyber-attacks, technological disruptions, malfunctions, or failures, an exchange or market may close or suspend trading in specific securities or the entire market, which could prevent the Funds from, among other things, buying or selling securities or accurately pricing their investments. The Funds cannot directly control cyber security plans and systems of their service providers, the Funds’ counterparties, issuers of securities in which the Funds invest, or securities markets and exchanges, and such service providers, counterparties, or issuers may have limited, if any, indemnification obligations to GMO or the Funds, each of whom could be negatively impacted as a result.

• MARKET DISRUPTION AND GEOPOLITICAL RISK. The Funds are subject to the risk that geopolitical and other events (e.g., wars, pandemics and terrorism) will disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets, thereby reducing the value of the Funds’ investments. Sudden or significant changes in the supply or prices of commodities or in other economic inputs (e.g., the marked decline in oil prices in late 2014, as well as in early 2020) may have material and unexpected effects on both global securities markets and individual countries, regions, sectors, companies, or industries. Terrorism in the United States and around the world has increased geopolitical risk. The terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 resulted in the closure of some U.S. securities markets for four days, and similar attacks are possible in the future. Securities markets may be susceptible to market manipulation or other fraudulent trading practices, which could disrupt their orderly functioning or reduce the prices of securities traded on them, including securities held by the Funds. Fraud and other deceptive practices committed by an issuer of securities held by a Fund undermine GMO’s due diligence efforts and, when discovered, will likely cause a steep decline in the market price of those securities and thus negatively affect the value of the Fund’s investments. In addition, when discovered, financial fraud may contribute to overall market volatility, which can negatively affect a Fund’s investment program.

While the U.S. government has always honored its credit obligations, a default by the U.S. government (as has been threatened in the recent past) would be highly disruptive to the U.S. and global securities markets and could significantly reduce the value of the Funds’ investments. Similarly, political events within the United States have resulted, and may in the future result, in shutdowns of government services, which could adversely affect the U.S. economy, reduce the value of many Fund investments, and impair the operation of the U.S. or other securities markets. Climate change regulation (such as decarbonization legislation or other mandatory controls to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases) could significantly affect many of the companies in which the Funds invest by, among other things, increasing those companies’ operating costs and capital expenditures. Uncertainty over the sovereign debt of several European Union countries, as well as uncertainty over the continued existence of the European Union itself, has disrupted and may continue to disrupt markets in the United States and around the world. If a country changes its currency or if the European Union dissolves, the world’s securities markets likely would be significantly disrupted. On January 31, 2020, the United Kingdom formally withdrew from the European Union (commonly known as “Brexit”). An agreement between the United Kingdom and the European Union governing their future trade relationship became effective January 1, 2021. While the full impact of Brexit is unknown, Brexit has already resulted in volatility in European and global markets. Potential negative long-term effects could include, among others, greater market volatility and illiquidity, disruptions to world securities markets, currency fluctuations, deterioration in economic activity, a decrease in business confidence, and an increased likelihood of a recession in the United Kingdom. The consequences of the United Kingdom’s or another country’s exit from the European Union also could threaten the stability of the Euro and could negatively affect the financial markets of other countries in the European region and beyond, which may include companies or assets held or considered for prospective investment by GMO.

adverse long-term effects on U.S. and world economies and markets generally. For example, the U.S. has imposed economic sanctions, which consist of asset freezes, restrictions on dealings in debt and equity, and certain industry-specific restrictions. These types of sanctions have recently been applied against the Venezuelan and Russian governments, as well as against certain Russian and Venezuelan officials and institutions. These sanctions have resulted, and any additional sanctions or intergovernmental actions or even the threat of further sanctions could result, in a decline in the value and liquidity of Russian and Venezuelan securities, a weakening of the Russian and Venezuelan currencies or other adverse consequences to their respective economies. Sanctions impair the ability of the Funds to buy, sell, receive or deliver those securities and/or assets that are subject to the sanctions. In addition, trade disputes (such as the “trade war” between the United States and China that intensified in 2018 and 2019) may affect investor and consumer confidence and adversely affect financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree. Events such as these and their impact on the Funds are difficult to predict.

Natural and environmental disasters (such as the earthquake and tsunami in Japan in early 2011), epidemics or pandemics (such as the outbreak of a novel coronavirus beginning in late 2019 (described below)), and systemic market dislocations (such as the kind surrounding the insolvency of Lehman Brothers in 2008), can be highly disruptive to economies and markets, adversely affecting individual companies and industries, securities markets, interest rates, credit ratings, inflation, investor sentiment and the market price of the Funds’ investments. During such market disruptions, the Funds’ exposure to the risks described elsewhere in this “Investment and other risks” section will likely increase. Market disruptions, including sudden government interventions, can also prevent the Funds from implementing their investment programs and achieving their investment objectives. For example, a market disruption may adversely affect the orderly functioning of the securities markets and may cause the Funds’ derivatives counterparties to discontinue offering derivatives on some underlying commodities, securities, reference rates, or indices or to offer them on a more limited basis. To the extent a Fund has focused its investments in the stock index of a particular region, adverse geopolitical and other events in that region could have a disproportionate impact on the Fund.

An outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus designated as COVID-19 was first detected in China in December 2019 and subsequently spread internationally. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted in, among other things, border closings and other significant travel restrictions and disruptions, significant disruptions to business operations, supply chains and customer activity, government economic stimulus measures, lower consumer demand for goods and services, event cancellations and restrictions, service cancellations, rapid increases in unemployment, increased demand for and strain on government resources, significant challenges in healthcare service preparation and delivery, and prolonged quarantines, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak could negatively affect the global economy, the economies of individual countries, and the financial performance of individual issuers, sectors, industries, asset classes, and markets in significant and unforeseen ways and may continue to do so in the future. Health crises caused by the outbreak of COVID-19 may also exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, economic, market and financial risks. The effects of the outbreak in developing or emerging market countries may be greater due to less established health care systems. The COVID-19 pandemic and its effects may be short term or may last for an extended period of time, and in either case could result in significant market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, and a substantial economic downturn or recession. The foregoing could impair the Funds’ ability to maintain operational standards (such as with respect to satisfying redemption requests), disrupt the operations of the Funds’ service providers, adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Funds’ investments, and negatively impact the Funds’ performance and your investment in a Fund.

• MARKET RISK. All of the Funds are subject to market risk, which is the risk that the market price of their holdings will decline. Market risks include:

Asset-Backed Securities — Investments in asset-backed securities not only are subject to all of the market risks described under “Market Risk — Fixed Income” but to other market risks as well.

Asset-backed securities are often exposed to greater risk of severe credit downgrades, illiquidity, and defaults than many other types of fixed income investments. These risks become particularly acute during periods of adverse market conditions, such as those that occurred in 2008.

support available to produce the cash flows necessary to service interest and make principal payments), the quality of the underlying assets, the level of credit support and the credit quality of the credit-support provider, if any, and the performance of other service providers with access to the payment stream. A problem in any of these factors can lead to a reduction in the payment stream GMO expected a Fund to receive when the Fund purchased the asset-backed security. Principal repayments of asset-backed securities are at risk if obligors of the underlying obligations default and the value of the defaulted obligations exceeds whatever credit support the securities have. Asset-backed securities backed by sub-prime mortgage loans, in particular, expose a Fund to potentially greater declines in value due to defaults because sub-prime mortgage loans are typically made to less creditworthy borrowers and thus have a higher risk of default than conventional mortgage loans. Issuers of asset-backed securities also are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors. As of the date of this report, many asset-backed securities owned by the Funds are rated below investment grade. See “Credit Risk” for more information about credit risk.

When worldwide economic and liquidity conditions deteriorated in 2008, the markets for asset-backed securities became fractured, and uncertainty about the creditworthiness of those securities (and underlying assets) caused credit spreads (the difference between yields on asset-backed securities and U.S. Government securities) to widen dramatically. Concurrently, systemic risks of the type evidenced by the insolvency of Lehman Brothers and subsequent market disruptions reduced the ability of financial institutions to make markets in many asset-backed (as well as others) fixed income securities. These events reduced liquidity and contributed to substantial declines in the market prices of asset-backed (and other) fixed income securities, and they may occur again. Also, government actions and proposals affecting the terms of underlying home and consumer loans, changes in demand for products (e.g., automobiles) financed by those loans, and the inability of borrowers to refinance existing loans (e.g., sub-prime mortgages) have had, and may continue to have, adverse valuation and liquidity effects on asset-backed securities.

The market price of an asset-backed security depends in part on the servicing of its underlying assets and is, therefore, subject to risks associated with the negligence or defalcation of its servicer. The mishandling of documentation for underlying assets also can affect the rights of holders of those underlying assets. The insolvency of a servicer is likely to result in a decline in the market price of the securities it is servicing, as well as costs and delays. The obligations underlying asset-backed securities, in particular securities backed by pools of residential and commercial mortgages, also are subject to unscheduled prepayment, and a Fund may be unable to invest prepayments at as high a yield as was provided by the asset-backed security. When interest rates rise, the obligations underlying asset-backed securities may be repaid more slowly than anticipated, and the market price of those securities may decrease.

The existence of insurance on an asset-backed security does not guarantee that the principal and interest will be paid because the insurer could default on its obligations.

The risk of investing in asset-backed securities has increased since 2008 because performance of the various sectors in which the assets underlying asset-backed securities are concentrated (e.g., auto loans, student loans, sub-prime mortgages, and credit card receivables) has become more highly correlated. See “Focused Investment Risk” for more information about risks of investing in correlated sectors. A single financial institution may serve as a servicer for many asset-backed securities. As a result, a disruption in that institution’s business would likely have a material impact on the many asset-backed securities it services. The risks associated with asset-backed securities are particularly pronounced for Opportunistic Income Fund, which has invested a substantial portion of its assets in asset-backed securities, and for the Funds that have invested a substantial portion of their assets in Opportunistic Income Fund.

Equities — Funds that invest in equities run the risk that the market price of an equity will decline. That decline may be attributable to factors affecting the issuer, such as a failure to keep up with technological advances or reduced demand for its goods or services, or to factors affecting a particular industry, such as a decline in demand, labor or raw material shortages, or increased production costs. A decline also may be attributable to general market conditions not specifically related to a company or industry, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates, or adverse investor sentiment generally. The market prices of equities are volatile and can decline in a rapid or unpredictable manner. Equities which are characterized as relatively cyclical, such as investments in companies in the consumer discretionary, financials, energy, real estate, materials and industrials sectors, often are especially sensitive to economic cycles, which means they typically underperform non-cyclical equities during economic downturns. Cyclical equities’ performance can be significantly affected by among other factors, cyclical revenue generation, consumer confidence and changing consumer preferences, and the performance of domestic and international economies. If a Fund purchases an equity for what GMO believes is less than its fundamental fair (or intrinsic) value, the Fund runs the risk that the market price of the equity will not appreciate or decline due to GMO’s incorrect assessment. The market prices of equities trading at high multiples of current earnings often are more sensitive to changes in future earnings expectations than the market prices of equities trading at lower multiples.

Fixed Income — Funds that invest in fixed income investments (including bonds, notes, bills, synthetic debt instruments, and asset-backed securities) are subject to various market risks. The market price of a fixed income investment can decline due to market-related factors, including rising interest rates and widening credit spreads, or decreased liquidity due, for example, to market uncertainty about the value of a fixed income investment (or class of fixed income investments). In addition, the market price of fixed income investments with complex structures, such as asset-backed securities and sovereign and quasi-sovereign debt investments, can decline due to uncertainty about their credit quality and the reliability of their payment streams. Some fixed income investments also are subject to unscheduled prepayment, and a Fund may be unable to invest prepayments at as high a yield as was provided by the fixed income investment. When interest rates rise, fixed income investments also may be repaid more slowly than anticipated, causing a decrease in their market price. During periods of economic uncertainty and change, the market price of a Fund’s investments in below investment grade investments (commonly referred to as “high yield” or “junk bonds”) may be particularly volatile. Often, below investment grade investments are subject to greater sensitivity to interest rate and economic changes than higher rated investments and can be more difficult to value, exposing a Fund to the risk that the price at which it sells them will be less than the price at which they were valued when held by the Fund. See “Credit Risk” and “Illiquidity Risk” for more information about these risks.

A principal risk run by each Fund with significant investment in fixed income investments is that an increase in prevailing interest rates will cause the market price of those securities to decline. The risk associated with increases in interest rates (also called “interest rate risk”) is greater for Funds investing in fixed income investments with longer durations. In addition, in managing some Funds, GMO may seek to evaluate potential investments in part by considering the volatility of interest rates. The value of a Fund’s investments would likely be significantly reduced if GMO’s assessment proves incorrect.

The extent to which the market price of a fixed income investment changes with changes in interest rates is referred to as interest rate duration, which can be measured mathematically or empirically. A longer-maturity investment generally has longer interest rate duration because its fixed rate is locked in for a longer period of time. Floating-rate or variable-rate investments generally have shorter interest rate durations because their interest rates are not fixed but rather float up and down as interest rates change. Conversely, inverse floating-rate investments have durations that move in the opposite direction from short-term interest rates and thus tend to underperform fixed rate investments when interest rates rise but outperform them when interest rates decline. Fixed income investments paying no interest, such as zero coupon and principal-only securities, are subject to additional interest rate risk.

The market price of inflation-indexed bonds (including TIPS) typically declines during periods of rising real interest rates (i.e. nominal interest rate minus inflation) and increases during periods of declining real interest rates. In some interest rate environments, such as when real interest rates are rising faster than nominal interest rates, the market price of inflation-indexed bonds may decline more than the price of non-inflation-indexed (or nominal) fixed income bonds with similar maturities.

When interest rates on short term U.S. Treasury obligations equal or approach zero, a Fund that invests a substantial portion of its assets in U.S. Treasury obligations, such as U.S. Treasury Fund, will have a negative return unless GMO waives or reduces its management fee.

Fixed income securities denominated in foreign currencies also are subject to currency risk. See “Currency Risk.”

In response to government intervention, economic or market developments, or other factors, markets for fixed income investments may experience periods of high volatility, reduced liquidity or both. During those periods, a Fund could have unusually high shareholder redemptions, requiring it to generate cash by selling portfolio investments when it would otherwise not do so, including at unfavorable prices. The risks associated with rising interest rates are generally greater during periods when prevailing interest rates are at or near their historic lows. Moreover, fixed income investments will be difficult to value during such periods. The U.S. Federal Reserve Bank recently decreased interest rates back to near historically low levels. A substantial increase in interest rates could have a material adverse effect on fixed income investments and on the performance of the Funds. Other actions by central banks or regulators (such as intervention in foreign currency markets or imposition of currency controls) also could have a material adverse effect on the Funds.

• NON-DIVERSIFIED FUNDS. All of the Funds (except U.S. Treasury Fund) are not “diversified” investment companies within the meaning of the 1940 Act. This means they are allowed to invest in the securities of a relatively small number of issuers. As a result, they are likely to be subject to greater credit, market and other risks than if their investments were more diversified, and poor performance by a single investment is likely to have a greater impact on their performance.

In addition, each of the Funds (other than U.S. Treasury Fund) may invest in shares of one or more other GMO Funds that are not “diversified” investment companies within the meaning of the 1940 Act.

• NON-U.S. INVESTMENT RISK. Funds that invest in non-U.S. securities are subject to more risks than Funds that invest only in U.S. securities. Many non-U.S. securities markets list securities of only a small number of companies in a small number of industries. As a result, the market prices of securities traded on those markets (particularly in emerging markets) often fluctuate more than those of U.S. securities. In addition, issuers of non-U.S. securities (particularly those tied economically to emerging countries) often are not subject to as much regulation as U.S. issuers, and the reporting, accounting, custody, and auditing standards to which those issuers are subject often are not as rigorous as U.S. standards. Transactions in non-U.S. securities generally involve higher commission rates, transfer taxes, and custodial costs. In addition, some countries limit a Fund’s ability to profit from short-term trading (as defined in that country).

A Fund may be subject to non-U.S. taxation, including potentially on a retroactive basis, on (i) capital gains it realizes or dividends, interest, or other amounts it realizes or accrues in respect of non-U.S. investments; (ii) transactions in those investments; and (iii) repatriation of proceeds generated from the sale or other disposition of those investments. A Fund may seek a refund of taxes paid, but its efforts may not be successful, in which case the Fund will have incurred additional expenses for no benefit. In addition, a Fund’s pursuit of a tax refund may subject it to administrative and judicial proceedings in the country where it is seeking the refund.

A Fund’s decision to seek a refund is in its sole discretion, and, particularly in light of the cost involved, it may decide not to seek a refund, even if it is entitled to one. The outcome of a Fund’s efforts to obtain a refund is inherently unpredictable. In some cases, the amount of a refund could be material to a Fund’s net asset value. Accordingly, a refund is not typically reflected in the Fund’s net asset value until it is received or GMO is confident it will be received. Generally, absent a determination by GMO that a refund is collectible and free from significant contingencies, a refund is not reflected in a Fund’s net asset value until it is received. See “Taxes, Non-U.S. Taxes” in the GMO Trust Statement of Additional Information for additional information.

Investing in non-U.S. securities also exposes a Fund to the risk of nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation of assets of their issuers, government involvement in every country, including the U.S., or in the affairs of specific companies or industries (including wholly or partially state-owned enterprises), adverse changes in investment regulations, capital requirements or exchange controls (which may include suspension of the ability to transfer currency from a country), and adverse political and diplomatic developments, including the imposition of economic sanctions.

In some non-U.S. securities markets, custody arrangements for securities provide significantly less protection than custody arrangements in U.S. securities markets, and prevailing custody and trade settlement practices (e.g., the requirement to pay for securities prior to receipt) expose a Fund to credit and other risks it does not have in the United States. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates also affect the market prices of a Fund’s non-U.S. securities (see “Currency Risk”).

The Funds need a license to invest directly in securities traded in many non-U.S. securities markets. These licenses are often subject to limitations, including maximum investment amounts. Once a license is obtained, a Fund’s ability to continue to invest directly is subject to the risk that the license will be terminated or suspended. If a license to invest in a particular market is terminated or suspended, to obtain exposure to that market the Fund will be required to purchase American Depositary Receipts, Global Depositary Receipts, shares of other funds that are licensed to invest directly, or derivative instruments. The receipt of a non-U.S. license by one of GMO’s clients may preclude a Fund from obtaining a similar license. In addition, the activities of a GMO client could cause the suspension or revocation of a Fund’s license.

obtaining and enforcing legal judgments; and significantly smaller market capitalizations of issuers. In addition, the economies of emerging countries may depend predominantly on only a few industries or revenues from particular commodities. The economies of emerging countries often are more volatile than the economies of developed countries. For example, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, which regulates auditors of U.S. public companies, is unable to inspect audit work papers in certain foreign countries, and the ability of the SEC, the U.S. Department of Justice and other authorities to bring and enforce actions against foreign issuers or foreign persons is limited.

• SMALLER COMPANY RISK. Companies with smaller market capitalizations tend to have limited product lines, markets, or financial resources, lack the competitive strength of larger companies, have less experienced managers and depend on fewer key employees than larger companies. In addition, their securities often are less widely held and trade less frequently and in lesser quantities, and their market prices often fluctuate more, than the securities of companies with larger market capitalizations. Market risk and illiquidity risk are particularly pronounced for the securities of these companies.

Temporary Defensive Positions. Temporary defensive positions are positions that are inconsistent with a Fund’s principal investment strategies and are taken in response to adverse market, economic, political or other conditions.

The Funds (other than Emerging Country Debt Fund, High Yield Fund and U.S. Treasury Fund) may take temporary defensive positions if deemed prudent by GMO. Many of the Funds have previously taken temporary defensive positions.

To the extent a Fund takes a temporary defensive position, or otherwise holds cash, cash equivalents, or high quality debt investments on a temporary basis, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

4.	Derivative financial instruments

Derivatives are financial contracts whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of underlying assets, reference rates, or indices that are used to increase, decrease or adjust elements of the investment exposures of a Fund’s portfolio. Derivatives may relate to securities, interest rates, currencies, currency exchange rates, inflation rates, commodities and indices, and include foreign currency contracts, swap contracts, reverse repurchase agreements, and other exchange-traded and OTC contracts.

The Funds may use derivatives to gain long investment exposure to securities or other assets. In particular, the Funds may use swaps, options, or other derivatives on an index, an ETF, a single security, or a basket of securities to gain investment exposures (e.g., by selling protection under a credit default swap). The Funds also may use currency derivatives (including forward currency contracts, futures contracts, swap contracts and options) to gain exposure to a given currency.

The Funds may use derivatives in an attempt to reduce their investment exposures (which may result in a reduction below zero). For example, a Fund may use credit default swaps to take a short position with respect to the likelihood of default by an issuer or may use a bond futures contract to short the bond market of a particular country. A Fund also may use currency derivatives in an attempt to reduce (which may result in a reduction below zero) some aspect of the currency exposure in its portfolio. For these purposes, the Fund may use an instrument denominated in a different currency that GMO believes is highly correlated with the relevant currency. The Funds may use derivatives in an attempt to adjust elements of their investment exposures to various securities, sectors, markets, indices, ETFs, and currencies without actually having to sell existing investments or make new direct investments. For instance, GMO may alter the interest rate exposure of debt instruments by employing interest rate swaps. Such a strategy is designed to maintain the Fund’s exposure to the credit of an issuer through the debt instrument but adjust the Fund’s interest rate exposure through the swap. With these swaps, the Fund and its counterparties exchange interest rate exposure, such as fixed versus variable rates and shorter duration versus longer duration exposure. In adjusting its investment exposures, a Fund also may use currency derivatives in an attempt to adjust its currency exposure, seeking currency exposure that is different (in some cases, significantly different) from the currency exposure represented by its portfolio investments.

Each of the Funds is not limited in its use of derivatives or in the total notional value of its derivative positions. As a result of their derivative positions, a Fund may have gross investment exposures in excess of its net assets (i.e., the Fund may be leveraged) and therefore are subject to heightened risk of loss. Each Fund’s (other than U.S. Treasury Fund) performance can depend substantially, if not primarily, on the performance of assets or indices underlying its derivatives even though it does not own those assets or indices.

through clearing members, who are members of derivatives clearing houses. Certain other derivatives, including futures and certain options, are transacted on exchanges. The Funds hold exchange-traded derivatives through clearing brokers that are typically members of the exchanges. In contrast to bilateral derivatives transactions, following a period of advance notice to the Fund, clearing brokers generally can require termination of existing cleared or exchange-traded derivatives transactions at any time and increases in margin above the margin that it required at the beginning of a transaction. Clearing houses and exchanges also have broad rights to increase margin requirements for existing transactions and to terminate transactions. Any such increase or termination could interfere with the ability of a Fund to pursue its investment strategy. Also, a Fund is subject to execution risk if it enters into a derivatives transaction that is required to be cleared (or that GMO expects to be cleared), and no clearing member is willing or able to clear the transaction on the Fund’s behalf. In that case, the transaction might have to be terminated, and the Fund could lose some or all of the benefit of any increase in the value of the transaction after the time of the transaction.

The use of derivatives involves risks that are in addition to, and potentially greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other more traditional assets. See “Investment and other risks” above for further information.

Forward currency contracts

The Funds (except U.S. Treasury Fund) may enter into forward currency contracts, including forward cross currency contracts. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date (or to pay or receive the amount of the change in relative values of the two currencies). The market price of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. The value of each of the Fund’s forward currency contracts is marked-to-market daily using rates supplied by a quotation service and changes in value are recorded by each Fund as unrealized gains or losses. Realized gains or losses on the contracts are equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was settled.

These contracts involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss. Forward currency contracts expose a Fund to the market risk of unfavorable movements in currency values and the risk that the counterparty will be unable or unwilling to meet the terms of the contracts. Most forward currency contracts are collateralized. Forward currency contracts outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Futures contracts

The Funds may purchase and sell futures contracts. A futures contract is a contract that obligates the holder to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined delivery price at a specified time in the future. Some futures contracts are net (cash) settled. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit cash, U.S. government and agency obligations or other liquid assets with the futures clearing broker in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are generally valued at the settlement price established at the close of business each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded (and if the futures are traded outside the U.S. and the market for such futures is closed prior to the close of the NYSE due to time zone differences, the values will be adjusted, to the extent practicable and available, based on inputs from an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees to reflect estimated valuation changes through the NYSE close). The value of each of the Fund’s futures contracts is marked-to-market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by each Fund. The payable or receivable is settled on the following business day. Gains or losses are recognized but not accounted for as realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin as recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Under some circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract can vary from the previous day’s settlement price, thereby effectively preventing liquidation of unfavorable positions. Futures contracts expose the Funds to the risk that they may not be able to enter into a closing transaction due to an illiquid market. Futures contracts outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Options

The Funds may purchase call and put options. A call option gives the holder the right to buy an asset; a put option gives the holder the right to sell an asset. “Quanto” options are cash-settled options in which the underlying asset (often an index) is denominated in a currency other than the currency in which the option is settled. By purchasing options a Fund alters its exposure to the underlying asset by, in the case of a call option, entitling it to purchase the underlying asset at a set price from the writer of the option and, in the case of a put option, entitling it to sell the underlying asset at a set price to the writer of the option. A Fund pays a premium for a purchased option. That premium, if any, which is disclosed in the Schedule of Investments, is subsequently reflected in the marked-to-market value of the option. The potential loss associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Purchased option contracts outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

The Funds may write (i.e. sell) call and put options on futures, swaps (“swaptions”), securities or currencies they own or in which they may invest. Writing options alters a Fund’s exposure to the underlying asset by, in the case of a call option, obligating that Fund to sell the underlying asset at a set price to the option-holder and, in the case of a put option, obligating that Fund to purchase the underlying asset at a set price from the option-holder. In some cases (e.g., index options), settlement will be in cash, based on a formula price. When a Fund writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently included in the marked-to-market value of the option. As a writer of an option, a Fund has no control over whether it will be required to sell (call) or purchase (put) the underlying asset and as a result bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the asset underlying the option. In the event that a Fund writes call options without an offsetting exposure (e.g., call options on an asset that the Fund does not own), it bears an unlimited risk of loss if the price of the underlying asset increases during the term of the option. OTC options expose a Fund to the risk the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market. Written option contracts outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

When an option contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Realized gains and losses on purchased options are included in realized gains and losses on investment securities. If a written call option is exercised, the premium originally received is recorded as an addition to sales proceeds. If a written put option is exercised, the premium originally received is recorded as a reduction in the cost of investments purchased. Gains and losses from the expiration or closing of written option contracts are separately disclosed in the Statements of Operations.

In a credit linked option contract, one party makes payments to another party in exchange for the option to exercise a contract where the buyer has the right to receive a specified return if a credit event (e.g., default or similar event) occurs with respect to a reference entity or entities and a specified decrease in the value of the related collateral occurs. A writer of a credit linked option receives periodic payments in return for its obligation to pay an agreed-upon value to the other party if they exercise their option in the case of a credit event. If no credit event occurs, the seller has no payment obligation and will keep the premiums received.

Swap contracts

The Funds may directly or indirectly use various swap contracts, including, without limitation, swaps on securities and securities indices, total return swaps, interest rate swaps, basis swaps, currency swaps, credit default swaps, variance swaps, commodity swaps, inflation swaps, municipal swaps, dividend swaps, volatility swaps, correlation swaps and other types of available swaps. A swap contract is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one asset for the return generated by another asset. Some swap contracts are net settled. When entering into a swap contract and during the term of the transaction, a Fund and/or the swap counterparty may post or receive cash or securities as collateral.

Initial upfront payments received or made upon entering into a swap contract are included in the fair market value of the swap. The Funds do not amortize upfront payments. Net periodic payments made or received to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap contract and prevailing market conditions (credit spreads, currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other relevant factors) are recorded as realized gains or losses in the Statements of Operations. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap contract is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. The periodic frequency of payments received may differ from periodic payment frequencies made and their frequencies could be monthly, quarterly, semiannually, annually or at maturity.

Interest rate swap contracts involve an exchange by the parties of their respective commitments to pay or rights to receive interest (e.g., an exchange of floating rate interest payments for fixed rate interest payments with respect to the notional amount of principal). Basis swaps are interest rate swaps that involve the exchange of two floating interest rate payments and may involve the exchange of two different currencies.

Inflation swaps involve the exchange of a floating rate linked to an index for a fixed rate interest payment with respect to a notional amount or principal.

Total return swap contracts involve a commitment by one party to pay interest to the other party in exchange for a payment to it from the other party based on the return of a reference asset (e.g., a security, basket of securities, or futures contract), both based on notional amounts. To the extent the return of the reference asset exceeds or falls short of the interest payments, one party is entitled to receive a payment from or obligated to make a payment to the other party.

In a credit default swap contract, one party makes payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return (or to put a security) if a credit event (e.g., default or similar event) occurs with respect to a reference entity or entities. A seller of credit default protection receives periodic payments in return for its obligation to pay the principal amount of a debt security (or other agreed-upon value) to the other party upon the occurrence of a credit event. If no credit event occurs, the seller has no payment obligations so long as there is no early termination.

For credit default swap contracts on asset-backed securities, a credit event may be triggered by various occurrences, which may include an issuer’s failure to pay interest or principal on a reference security, a breach of a material representation or covenant, an agreement by the holders of an asset-backed security to a maturity extension, or a write-down on the collateral underlying the security. For credit default swap contracts on corporate or sovereign issuers, a credit event may be triggered by such occurrences as the issuer’s bankruptcy, failure to pay interest or principal, repudiation/moratorium and/or restructuring.

Correlation swaps involve receiving a stream of payments based on the actual average correlation between or among the price movements of two or more underlying variables over a period of time, in exchange for making a regular stream of payments based on a fixed “strike” correlation level (or vice versa), where both payment streams are based on a notional amount. The underlying variables may include, without limitation, commodity prices, exchange rates, interest rates and stock indices.

Variance swap contracts involve an agreement by two parties 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 chosen is generally fixed at a level such that the fair value of the swap is zero. As a result, no money changes hands at the initiation of the contract. At the expiration date, the amount payable by one party to the other is the difference between the realized price variance of the underlying asset and the strike price multiplied by the notional amount. A receiver of the realized price variance would be entitled to receive a payment when the realized price variance of the underlying asset is greater than the strike price and would be obligated to make a payment when that variance is less than the strike price. A payer of the realized price variance would be obligated to make a payment when the realized price variance of the underlying asset is greater than the strike price and would be entitled to receive a payment when that variance is less than the strike price. This type of agreement is essentially a forward contract on the future realized price variance of the underlying asset.

Generally, the Funds price their OTC swap contracts daily using industry standard models that may incorporate quotations from market makers or pricing vendors and record the change in value, if any, as unrealized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. Gains or losses are realized upon the termination of the swap contracts or reset dates, as appropriate. Cleared swap contracts are valued using the quote (which may be based on a model) published by the relevant clearing house. If an updated quote for a cleared swap contract is not available by the time that a Fund calculates its net asset value on any business day, then that swap contract will generally be valued using an industry standard model, which may differ from the model used by the relevant clearing house.

The values assigned to swap contracts may differ significantly from the values realized upon termination, and the differences could be material. Entering into swap contracts involves counterparty credit, legal, and documentation risk that is generally not reflected in the value assigned to the swap contract. Such risks include the possibility that the counterparty defaults on its obligations to perform or disagrees as to the meaning of contractual terms, that a Fund has amounts on deposit in excess of amounts owed by that Fund, or that any collateral the other party posts is insufficient or not timely received by a Fund. Credit risk is particularly acute in economic environments in which financial services firms are exposed to systemic risks of the type evidenced by the insolvency of Lehman Brothers in 2008 and subsequent market disruptions. Swap contracts outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

***

As provided by U.S. GAAP, the table below is based on market values or unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) rather than the notional amounts of derivatives. Changes to market values of reference asset(s) will tend to have a greater impact on the Funds (with correspondingly greater risk) the greater the notional amount. For further information on notional amounts, see the Schedule of Investments.

The following is a summary of the valuations of derivative instruments categorized by risk exposure.

Because the Funds recognize changes in value through the Statements of Operations, they do not qualify for hedge accounting under authoritative guidance for derivative instruments. The Funds’ investments in derivatives may represent an economic hedge; however, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for the purpose of these tables.

The table includes cumulative unrealized appreciation/depreciation of futures and value of cleared swap contracts, if any, as reported in the Schedule of Investments. Year end variation margin on open futures and cleared swap contracts, if any, is reported within the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Certain Funds are party to International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements, Global Master Repurchase Agreements or other similar types of agreements (collectively, “Master Agreements”) that generally govern the terms of OTC derivative transactions, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements. The Master Agreements may include collateral posting terms and set-off provisions that apply in the event of a default and/or termination event. Upon the occurrence of such an event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty, the Master Agreements may permit the non-defaulting party to calculate a single net payment to close out applicable transactions. However, there is no guarantee that the terms of a Master Agreement will be enforceable; for example, when bankruptcy or insolvency laws impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset. Additionally, the set-off and netting provisions of a Master Agreement may not extend to the obligations of the counterparty’s affiliates or across varying types of transactions. Because no such event has occurred, the Funds do not presently have a legally enforceable right of set-off and these amounts have not been offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, but have been presented separately in the table below. Termination events may also include a decline in the net assets of a Fund below a certain level over a specified period of time and may entitle a counterparty to elect an early termination of all the transactions under the Master Agreement with that counterparty. Such an election by one or more of the counterparties could have a material adverse impact on a Fund’s operations. An estimate of the aggregate net payment, if any, that may need to be paid by a Fund (or may be received by a Fund) in such an event is represented by the Net Amounts in the tables below. For more information about other uncertainties and risks, see “Investments and other risks” above.

For financial reporting purposes, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities any cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Funds is reported as Due from broker and any cash collateral received from the counterparty is reported as Due to broker. Any non-cash collateral pledged by the Funds is noted in the Schedules of Investments. The tables below show the potential effect of netting arrangements made available by the Master Agreements on the financial position of the Funds. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities generally show derivative assets and derivative liabilities (regardless of whether they are subject to netting arrangements) on a gross basis, which reflects the full risks and exposures of the Fund prior to netting. See Note 2 for information on repurchase agreements and, reverse repurchase agreements held by the Funds at February 28, 2021, if any.

The tables above present the Funds’ derivative assets and liabilities by type of financial instrument. The following tables present the Funds’ OTC and/or exchange-traded derivative assets and liabilities by counterparty net of amounts that may be available for offset under the Master Agreements by the terms of the agreement and net of the related collateral received or pledged by the Funds as of February 28, 2021:

Prior to January 1, 2017, the management fee was 0.25%.

^(b)

Prior to June 30, 2019, GMO voluntarily waived the Fund’s entire management fee.

In addition, each class of shares of certain Funds pays GMO directly or indirectly a shareholder service fee for providing client services and reporting, such as performance information, client account information, personal and electronic access to Fund information, access to analysis and explanations of Fund reports, and assistance in maintaining and correcting client-related information. Shareholder service fees are paid monthly at the annual rate equal to the percentage of each applicable Class’s average daily net assets set forth in the table below:



Fund Name	Class III			Class IV			Class V		Class VI		Class R6			Class I
Asset Allocation Bond Fund		0.15%								0.055%

Class is offered but has no shareholders as of February 28, 2021.

For each Fund, other than Emerging Country Debt Fund and High Yield Fund, GMO has contractually agreed to reimburse each Fund for its “Specified Operating Expenses” (as defined below). Any such reimbursements are paid to a Fund concurrently with the Fund’s payment of management fees to GMO. GMO has contractually agreed to reimburse High Yield Fund for the portion of its “Specified Operating Expenses” that exceeds 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets (“Expense Threshold Amount”).

“Specified Operating Expenses” means: audit expenses, fund accounting expenses, pricing service expenses, expenses of non-investment related tax services, transfer agency expenses (excluding, in the case of Class I shares, any amounts paid for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to Class I shareholders), expenses of non-investment related legal services provided to the Funds by or at the direction of GMO, organizational and start-up expenses, federal securities law filing expenses, printing expenses, state and federal registration fees and custody expenses.

For High Yield Fund, GMO is permitted to recover from the Fund, on a class-by-class basis, as applicable, the “Specified Operating Expenses” GMO has borne or reimbursed (whether through reduction of its fees or otherwise) to the extent that the Fund’s “Specified Operating Expenses” later fall below the Expense Threshold Amount or the lower expense limit in effect when GMO seeks to recover the expenses. The Fund, however, is not obligated to pay any such amount more than three years after GMO bore or reimbursed an expense. The amount GMO is entitled to recover may not cause a Fund to exceed the Expense Threshold Amount or the lower expense limit in effect when GMO seeks recovery.

For the year ended February 28, 2021, GMO recouped the following previously recorded waivers and/or reimbursements.



	Recoupment Amount ($)
High Yield Fund, Class VI		20,494

On February 28, 2021, the waivers and/or reimbursements subject to possible future recoupment are as follows:



	Expiring the year ending February 28, 2022		Expiring the year ending February 28, 2023		Expiring the year ending February 29, 2024
High Yield Fund, Class VI		$72,033		$—		$—

GMO has contractually agreed to waive or reduce the Fund’s management fee and shareholder service fee to the extent necessary to offset the management fee and shareholder service fee paid to GMO that are directly or indirectly borne by the Fund or a class of shares of the Fund as a result of the Fund’s direct or indirect investments in other series of GMO Trust (“GMO Funds”). Management fees and shareholder service fees will not be waived below zero.

These contractual waivers and reimbursements will continue through at least June 30, 2021 for each Fund unless the Funds’ Board of Trustees authorizes their modification or termination or reduces the fee rates paid to GMO under the Fund’s management contract or servicing and supplemental support agreement.

Sub-Transfer Agent/Recordkeeping Payments

Class III, IV, V, VI, and R6 shares are not subject to payments to third parties for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and other administrative services. GMO may, on a case-by-case basis, make payments for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to shareholders of these classes. Any such payments are made by GMO out of its own resources and are not an additional charge to a Fund or the holders of Class III, IV, V, VI, or Class R6 shares. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing a financial intermediary to recommend a Fund over another investment.

and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to shareholders of Class I shares. Any such payments are made by GMO out of its own resources and are not an additional charge to a Fund or the holders of Class I shares. These payments create a conflict of interest by influencing a financial intermediary to recommend a Fund over another investment.

Fund Name	Total Indirect Expenses
Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund (formerly Core Plus Bond Fund)		0.121%

The Funds are permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain other GMO funds under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Trustees. The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by a Fund from another fund or portfolio that is or could be considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment adviser (or affiliated investment advisers), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Further, as defined under the procedures, each transaction is effectuated at the current market price. During the year ended February 28, 2021, the Funds did not engage in these transactions.

6.	Purchases and sales of securities

Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term investments and including GMO U.S. Treasury Fund, if applicable, for the year ended February 28, 2021 are noted in the table below:

7.	Guarantees

In the normal course of business the Funds enter into contracts with third-party service providers that contain a variety of representations and warranties and that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as it involves possible future claims that may or may not be made against the Funds. Based on experience, GMO is of the view that the risk of loss to the Funds in connection with the Funds’ indemnification obligations is remote; however, there can be no assurance that such obligations will not result in material liabilities that adversely affect the Funds.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of GMO Trust and Shareholders of

GMO Asset Allocation Bond Fund, GMO Emerging Country Debt Fund, GMO High Yield Fund, GMO Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund, GMO Opportunistic Income Fund, and GMO U.S. Treasury Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of GMO Asset Allocation Bond Fund, GMO Emerging Country Debt Fund, GMO High Yield Fund, GMO Multi-Sector Fixed Income Fund (formerly known as GMO Core Plus Bond Fund), GMO Opportunistic Income Fund, and GMO U.S. Treasury Fund (six of the funds constituting GMO Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of February 28, 2021, the related statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2021, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2021, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2021, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2021 and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinions

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2021 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Fund Expenses

February 28, 2021 (Unaudited)

Expense Examples: The following information is in relation to expenses for the six month period ended February 28, 2021.

As a shareholder of the Funds, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including purchase premium and redemption fees, if applicable; and (2) ongoing costs, including direct and/or indirect management fees, direct and/or indirect shareholder services fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, September 1, 2020 through February 28, 2021.

Actual Expenses

This section of the table for each class below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, a $10,000,000 account value divided by $1,000 = 10,000), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

This section of the table for each class below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. 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 the Funds with 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 costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as purchase premium and redemption fees. Therefore, this section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Expenses are calculated using each class’s annualized net expense ratio (including indirect expenses incurred) for the six months ended February 28, 2021, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181 days in the period, divided by 365 days in the year.

The following tables present information regarding each Trustee and officer of the Trust as of February 28, 2021. Each Trustee’s and officer’s year of birth (“YOB”) is set forth after his or her name. Unless otherwise noted, (i) each Trustee and officer has engaged in the principal occupation(s) noted in the table for at least the most recent five years, although not necessarily in the same capacity, and (ii) the address of each Trustee and officer is c/o GMO Trust, 40 Rowes Wharf, Boston, MA 02110.

GMO Climate Change Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Focused Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although GMO does not manage the Fund to, or control the Fund’s risk relative to, any securities index or securities benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the MSCI All Country World Index (“ACWI”) is included for comparative purposes.

Class III shares of GMO Climate Change Fund returned +63.84% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +30.25% for the MSCI ACWI.

The Fund’s clean energy holdings posted strong gains. Solar, wind, and biofuels each more than doubled during the year. SolarEdge Technologies Inc. and Renewable Energy Group Inc. were among the best performers.

The Fund’s copper exposure gained 145% as copper prices rose approximately 57% during the year. Freeport McMoRan Inc. was among the best performers.

The Fund’s agriculture exposure also performed well. The Mosaic Company, one of the world’s largest suppliers of phosphate and potash, was a strong contributor to performance.

MSCI data may not be reproduced or used for any other purpose. MSCI provides no warranties, has not prepared or approved this report, and has no liability hereunder.

For Class III, R6 and I the gross expense ratio of 0.94%, 0.94% and 1.04%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 0.78%, 0.78% and 0.88% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO Cyclical Focus Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Focused Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class VI shares of GMO Cyclical Focus Fund returned +53.56% (net) for the period from the Fund’s inception on May 12, 2020 until the end of the fiscal year on February 28, 2021, as compared with +37.29% for the MSCI ACWI.

The Fund’s Consumer Discretionary (overweight) and Health Care (underweight) allocations made a positive contribution during the period, and Information Technology (underweight) and Energy (overweight) had a negative impact.

The Fund’s security selection results in Materials and Industrials made a positive contribution during the period, and selection results in Consumer Discretionary detracted. Sector allocation mattered slightly more than stock selection within sector.

The U.S./non-U.S. regional allocation made little difference to performance.

GMO Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Emerging Markets Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC and GMO Singapore Pte. Limited.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although GMO does not manage the Fund to, or control the Fund’s risk relative to, any securities index or securities benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index is included for comparative purposes.

Class II shares of GMO Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund returned +31.76% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +36.05% for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.

Country-sector allocation detracted from the Fund’s relative returns for the fiscal year. The Fund’s overweight in India Financials and underweight in India Information Technology hurt relative performance.

Stock selection detracted from the Fund’s relative returns for the fiscal year. The Fund’s stock selection in China Consumer Discretionary and Taiwan Information Technology hurt relative performance.

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

For the period from March 1, 2011 to March 24, 2011, no Class II shares were outstanding. Performance for that period is that of Class V, which has lower expenses. Therefore, the performance shown is higher than it would have been if Class II expenses had been applied throughout.

For the period from October 27, 2011 to November 29, 2013, no Class V shares were outstanding. Performance for that period is that of Class II, which has higher expenses. Therefore, the performance shown is lower than it would have been if Class V expenses had been applied throughout.

MSCI data may not be reproduced or used for any other purpose. MSCI provides no warranties, has not prepared or approved this report, and has no liability hereunder.

For Class II, V and I the gross expense ratio of 1.14%, 1.01% and 1.23%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 1.12%, 0.99% and 1.15% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO Emerging Markets Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Emerging Markets Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class II shares of GMO Emerging Markets Fund returned +23.89% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +36.05% for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.

Country allocation contributed to the Fund’s relative returns for the fiscal year. In particular, the Fund’s underweight positions in Brazil Financials and India Financials added to relative performance.

Stock selection detracted from the Fund’s relative returns for the fiscal year. Fund stock selection in Taiwan Information Technology and China Financials hurt relative performance.

GMO Emerging Markets Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Comparison of Change in Value of a $5,000,000 Investment in

GMO Emerging Markets Fund Class II Shares, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and

the S&P/IFCI Composite

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

For the period 2/26/2019 to 2/26/2020, no Class V shares were outstanding. Performance for that period is that of Class III shares, which have higher expenses. Therefore, the performance shown is lower than it would have been if Class V expenses had been applied throughout.

For S&P disclaimers please visit https://www.gmo.com/north-america/benchmark-disclaimers/

MSCI data may not be reproduced or used for any other purpose. MSCI provides no warranties, has not prepared or approved this report, and has no liability hereunder.

For Class II, III, V, VI, R6 and I the gross expense ratio of 0.97%, 0.90%, 0.84%, 0.81%, 0.97% and 1.07%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 0.94%, 0.89%, 0.79%, 0.76%, 0.94% and 0.99% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO International Equity Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Global Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although the Fund is not managed relative to any securities market index or benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the MSCI EAFE Index is included for comparative purposes.

Class II shares of GMO International Equity Fund returned +21.58% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +22.46% for the MSCI EAFE Index.

The environment continued to be characterized by valuation headwinds. The magnitude of the headwind is illustrated by the 12.0% underperformance of the MSCI EAFE Value Index when compared to the MSCI EAFE Growth Index for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021. While valuation-oriented models faced headwinds, growth-oriented models and signals, which captured sentiment from other asset classes, helped performance.

Areas of notable positive stock selection included Australia, Materials, France, and Utilities. Top contributors included overweight positioning in Fortescue Metals (Australia Materials), Rio Tinto (Australia Materials), Dialog Semiconductor (Germany Information Technology), L’Oréal (France Consumer Staples), and Volvo (Sweden Industrials). Underweight positioning toward Real Estate, Financials, and Energy also added value.

Challenging areas for stock selection included the Netherlands, Japan, the U.K., Health Care, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrials. Top detractors included overweight positioning in International Consolidated Airlines (U.K. Industrials), WH Group (Hong Kong Consumer Staples), British American Tobacco (U.K. Consumer Staples), and GlaxoSmithKline (U.K. Health Care).

GMO International Equity Fund Class II Shares and the MSCI EAFE Index

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

MSCI data may not be reproduced or used for any other purpose. MSCI provides no warranties, has not prepared or approved this report, and has no liability hereunder.

For Class II, III and IV the gross expense ratio of 0.76%, 0.69% and 0.63%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 0.73%, 0.66% and 0.60% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO-Usonian Japan Value Creation Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Usonian Japan Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although the Fund is not managed relative to any securities market index or benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TR) is included for comparative purposes.

Class VI shares of GMO-Usonian Japan Value Creation Fund launched on September 14, 2020 and returned +18.82% (net) for the partial fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +12.97% for the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TR).

During this period, equities rallied in Japan following the sharp decline driven by COVID-19 early in 2020. Expectations of a cyclical recovery and optimism surrounding reforms under Japan’s new Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga lifted the Japan equity markets to post-bubble highs. Also, for the first time after several periods, value outperformed growth in the Japanese stock market. Small cap stocks which the Fund favors, however, lagged as the Tokyo Stock Price Small Cap Index trailed the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TR) by 7.8%. By focusing on quality companies trading at attractive valuations with high liquidity, the Fund outperformed the MSCI Japan Value Index by 3.1%.

Relative to the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TR), security selection within sectors contributed to returns this period. Selection results in Financials and Real Estate made the largest positive impact while Consumer Discretionary and Materials detracted. Sector allocation also contributed to returns. An underweight in Health Care and overweight in Information Technology contributed to the returns, while an underweight in Communication Services and the portfolio’s cash position detracted. Stock selection mattered more than sector allocation.

Because some of the securities and instruments held directly or indirectly by the Fund had positive fair value adjustments at the beginning or end of the fiscal year (and the performance of indices are not fair valued), the Fund’s absolute and relative performance is higher than it otherwise would have been in the absence of such fair value adjustments.

Comparison of Change in Value of a $300,000,000 Investment in

GMO-Usonian Japan Value Creation Fund Class VI Shares and the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TR)

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

For Class VI the gross expense ratio of 0.74% is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated October 25, 2020. For the Class listed above, the net expense ratio of 0.57% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least November 2, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO Quality Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Focused Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although GMO does not manage the Fund to, or control the Fund’s risk relative to, any securities index or securities benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the S&P 500 Index is included for comparative purposes.

Class III shares of GMO Quality Fund returned +30.83% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +31.29% for the S&P 500 Index.

Relative to the S&P 500, sector allocation contributed to the Fund’s returns this period. The Information Technology (overweight) and Utilities (underweight) allocations made the largest positive impact while Consumer Discretionary (underweight) and Health Care (overweight) detracted.

The Fund’s security selection results within sector detracted from relative returns. Selection results in Communication Services made the largest positive impact, while selection within Consumer Discretionary and Consumer Staples reduced returns. Sector allocation was largely offset by stock selection.

The allocation to non-U.S. stocks generated incremental returns.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, Lam Research and Texas Instruments made a positive contribution while Coca-Cola, Amazon (underweight) and Wells Fargo had a negative impact.

For S&P disclaimers please visit https://www.gmo.com/north-america/benchmark-disclaimers/

For Class III, IV, VI, R6 and I the gross expense ratio of 0.50%, 0.46%, 0.41%, 0.50% and 0.60%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 0.48%, 0.44%, 0.39%, 0.48% and 0.58% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO Resources Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Focused Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO Resources Fund returned +59.36% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +24.02% for the MSCI ACWI Commodity Producers Index.

The different segments of the Resources sector had extremely divergent performance throughout the year, and we followed our value discipline to take profits from winning positions and redeploy capital to segments that had become more attractive.

The Fund’s positioning in Energy had a positive impact. Both the overweight to clean energy and underweight to fossil fuels contributed to performance. Stock selection was also strong in this sector. Canadian Solar, Kosmos Energy, and Renewable Energy Group Inc. were among the largest contributors.

The Fund’s overweight to industrial metals provided positive allocation and selection impacts. In particular, the copper exposure contributed, and Freeport-McMoRan Inc. was among the largest contributors.

The Fund’s overweight to agriculture provided positive allocation and selection impacts. The Mosaic Company, one of the world’s largest suppliers of phosphate and potash, was a strong contributor to performance.

GMO Tax-Managed International Equities Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Asset Allocation team and the Global Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although the Fund is not managed relative to any securities market index or benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the MSCI EAFE Index is included for comparative purposes.

Class III shares of GMO Tax-Managed International Equities Fund returned +20.53% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +22.46% for the MSCI EAFE Index.

Areas of notable positive stock selection included Australia, Materials, and Utilities. Top contributors included overweight positioning in Fortescue Metals (Australia Materials), Tokyo Electron (Japan Information Technology), Kia Motors (Korea Consumer Discretionary), Rio Tinto (Australia Materials), and Dialog Semiconductor (Germany Information Technology). Underweight positioning toward Financials, Real Estate, and Energy also added value.

Challenging areas for stock selection included Emerging Markets, the Netherlands, the U.K., Consumer Discretionary, Health Care, and Industrials. Top detractors included overweight positioning in Banco do Brasil (Brazil Financials), International Consolidated Airlines (U.K. Industrials), Barratt Developments (U.K. Consumer Discretionary), and British American Tobacco (U.K. Consumer Staples).

For Class III the gross expense ratio of 1.34% is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Class listed above, the net expense ratio of 0.80% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO U.S. Equity Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Global Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although the Fund is not managed relative to any securities market index or benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the S&P Composite 1500 Index is included for comparative purposes.

Class III shares of GMO U.S. Equity Fund returned +33.74% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +32.19% for the S&P Composite 1500 Index. As of April 1, 2020, the Fund’s benchmark was changed from the Russell 3000 Index to the S&P Composite 1500 Index, which GMO believes to be a better representation of the Fund’s strategy. Over the year ended February 28, 2021 the Russell 3000 Index returned +35.33%.

The Fund outperformed the S&P Composite 1500 Index despite an environment which continued to be characterized by valuation headwinds. The magnitude of the headwind is illustrated by the 18.8% underperformance of the S&P 1500 Composite Value Index when compared to the S&P 1500 Composite Growth Index for the year ended February 28, 2021. While valuation-oriented models posted modest outperformance, growth-oriented models were key to the Fund’s value added.

Stock selection detracted from relative performance, while sector allocation was additive over the period. These performance themes were broadly similar whether the Fund was compared to the S&P Composite 1500 Index or the Russell 3000 Index. However, stock selection was more challenging relative to the Russell 3000 Index. The largest difference was driven by Tesla, which was the largest detractor relative to the Russell 3000 Index after having been included in the index for the full fiscal year. In contrast, Tesla’s performance was relatively flat from the time of its S&P inclusion to the end of the fiscal year and had little impact on performance relative the S&P Composite 1500 Index.

Sector allocation added value from both overweight and underweight positioning. Underweights which added value included Utilities, Real Estate, Energy, and Financials. Overweights toward Information Technology and Consumer Discretionary also made positive contributions toward benchmark relative performance.

Top detractors included a mix of companies held underweight and overweight. Underweight positions among the top detractors included Apple (Information Technology), Amazon (Consumer Discretionary), and PayPal (Information Technology). Overweight positioning toward attractively valued names including PepsiCo (Consumer Staples) and Biogen (Health Care) also detracted from relative performance.

GMO U.S. Equity Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Comparison of Change in Value of a $5,000,000 Investment in

GMO U.S. Equity Fund Class III Shares, the S&P Composite 1500 Index and the Russell 3000 Index

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

As of April 1, 2020, the U.S. Equity Fund changed its benchmark so that the Fund now seeks to generate high total return in excess of that of the S&P 1500 Index. The Fund formerly sought to outperform the Russell 3000 Index.

For S&P and Russell disclaimers please visit https://www.gmo.com/north-america/benchmark-disclaimers/

For Class III and VI the gross expense ratio of 0.49% and 0.40%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding Net Expense Ratio of 0.46% and 0.37% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

GMO U.S. Small Cap Value Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Global Equity team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class VI shares of GMO U.S. Small Cap Value Fund returned +40.64% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +43.76% for the S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index. As of April 1, 2020, the Fund’s benchmark was changed from the Russell 2000 Value Index to the S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index, which GMO believes to be a better representation of the Fund’s strategy. Over the year ended February 28, 2021 the Russell 2000 Value Index returned +41.06%.

Stock selection detracted from relative performance, while sector allocation was additive over the period. These performance themes were broadly similar whether the Fund was compared to the S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index or the Russell 2000 Value Index. However, sector allocation added less value relative to the S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index. For example, the Fund’s overweight positioning toward the Consumer Discretionary sector added 2.3% less to relative performance against the S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index than it would have added if compared to the Russell 2000 Value Index.

Top detractors included a mix of companies held overweight and underweight. Overweight positioning toward attractively valued names including CoreCivic (Industrials), GEO Group (Real Estate), and TEGNA (Communication Services) detracted from relative performance. Underweight positions among the top detractors included GameStop (Consumer Discretionary).

Sector allocation added value from both overweight and underweight positioning. Underweights which added value included Real Estate, Utilities, and Financials. Overweights toward Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology also made positive contributions toward benchmark relative performance.

Comparison of Change in Value of a $300,000,000 Investment in

GMO U.S. Small Cap Value Fund Class VI Shares, the S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index and

the Russell 2000 Value Index

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

As of April 1, 2020, the U.S. Small Cap Value Fund changed its benchmark so that the Fund now seeks to generate total return in excess of that of the S&P SmallCap 600 Value Index. The Fund formerly sought to outperform the Russell 2000 Value Index.

For S&P and Russell disclaimers please visit https://www.gmo.com/north-america/benchmark-disclaimers/

For Class VI the gross expense ratio of 0.44% is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Class listed above, the net expense ratio of 0.44% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

1.	Organization

Each of Climate Change Fund, Cyclical Focus Fund (commenced operations on May 12, 2020), Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund, Emerging Markets Fund, International Equity Fund, Japan Value Creation Fund (commenced operations on September 14, 2020), Quality Fund, Resources Fund, Tax-Managed International Equities Fund, U.S. Equity Fund and U.S. Small Cap Value Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) is a series of GMO Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was established as a Massachusetts business trust under the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts on June 24, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees of the Trust (“Trustees”) to create an unlimited number of series of shares (Funds) and to subdivide Funds into classes. The Funds are advised and managed by Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC (“GMO”).

The Funds may invest in GMO U.S. Treasury Fund and in money market funds unaffiliated with GMO. The Funds may also invest in other GMO Funds (“underlying funds”). The financial statements of the underlying funds should be read in conjunction with the Funds’ financial statements. The financial statements are available without charge on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at www.sec.gov or on GMO’s website at www.gmo.com.

2.	Significant accounting policies

Portfolio valuation

Exchange-traded securities (other than exchange-traded options) for which market quotations are readily available are valued at (i) the last sale price or (ii) official closing price or (iii) most recent quoted price published by the exchange (if no reported last sale or official closing price) or (iv) the quoted price provided by a pricing source (in the event GMO deems the private market to be a more reliable indicator of market value than the exchange). Exchange-traded options are valued at the last sale price, provided that price is between the closing bid and ask prices. If the last sale price is not within that range, then they will be valued at the closing bid price for long positions and the closing ask price for short positions. Cleared derivatives are valued using the price quoted (which may be based on a model) by the relevant clearing house. If an updated quote for a cleared derivative is not available when a Fund calculates its net asset value, the derivative will generally be valued using an industry standard model, which may differ from the model used by

the relevant clearing house. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives are generally valued at the price determined by an industry standard model. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available are generally valued at the most recent quoted price. Shares of the underlying funds and other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their most recent net asset value.

In the case of derivatives, prices determined by a model may reflect an estimate of the average of bid and ask prices, regardless of whether a Fund has a long position or a short position.

The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Valuations determined using other significant direct or indirect observable inputs.



				109

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

The types of assets and liabilities categorized in Level 2 generally include cleared derivatives and certain OTC derivatives such as swaps, options, swaptions, and forward currency contracts valued using industry standard models; certain restricted securities valued at the most recent available market or quoted price; certain securities that are valued at the local price; and certain foreign equity securities that are adjusted based on inputs from an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees, including the value of equity securities that underlie futures, options and other derivatives (to the extent the market for such instruments closes prior to the close of the NYSE) to reflect estimated valuation changes through the NYSE close.

Level 3 – Valuations based primarily on inputs that are unobservable and significant.

The types of assets and liabilities categorized in Level 3 generally include, but are not limited to, securities whose trading has been suspended or that have been de-listed from their current primary trading exchange valued at the most recent available market or quoted price; securities in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation valued at the most recent available market or quoted price; certain equity securities valued based on the last traded exchange price adjusted for the movement in a relevant index and/or a security type conversion discount; certain securities that are valued using a price from a comparable security related to the same issuer; and certain recently acquired equity securities that have yet to begin trading that are valued at cost.

The following is a summary of the respective levels assigned to the Funds’ direct securities and derivatives, if any, as of February 28, 2021:

purchased options on securities, as described in the section entitled “Options” in Note 4 “Derivative financial instruments”. Risks associated with the use of warrants and rights are generally similar to risks associated with the use of purchased options. However, warrants and rights often do not have standardized terms, and may have longer maturities and may be less liquid than exchange-traded options. In addition, the terms of warrants or rights may limit a Fund’s ability to exercise the warrants or rights at such times and in such quantities as the Fund would otherwise wish. Rights and/or warrants outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Securities lending

The Funds may make secured loans of their portfolio securities amounting to not more than one-third of their total assets. Securities loans are required to be collateralized by cash or securities with a value equal to at least 100% of the market value of the loaned securities (marked to market daily). Funds participating in securities lending receive compensation for lending their securities and/or net investment income earned on the investment of cash collateral, net of fee rebates paid to the borrower and fees paid to the lending agent. Cash collateral received is generally invested in GMO U.S. Treasury Fund. State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as the Funds’ lending agent.

Funds that lend their portfolio securities bear the risk of delay in the recovery of loaned securities, including possible impairment of the Fund’s ability to vote the securities, and of loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. Such Funds also bear the risk that the value of investments made with collateral may decline and bear the risk of total loss with respect to the investment of collateral.

At February 28, 2021, securities on loan at value and collateral from securities on loan are listed below:



Fund Name	Value of securities on loan ($)		Cash collateral ($)		Non-cash collateral ($)*		Total collateral ($)
Climate Change Fund		19,593,447		3,377,753		17,297,746		20,675,499
Emerging Markets Fund		3,874,183		—		4,204,133		4,204,133
Resources Fund		23,419,309		—		24,261,132		24,261,132

Non-cash collateral is comprised of U.S Treasuries and Agencies. The Fund cannot repledge non-cash collateral; therefore, they are excluded from the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Information regarding the value of the securities loaned and the value of cash collateral at period end is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Taxes and distributions

The policy of each Fund is to declare and pay dividends of its net investment income, if any, at least annually, although the Funds are permitted to, and will from time to time, declare and pay dividends of net investment income, if any, more frequently. Each Fund also intends to distribute net realized short-term and long-term capital gains, if any, at least annually. In addition, each Fund may, from time to time at their discretion, make unscheduled distributions in advance of large redemptions by shareholders or as otherwise deemed appropriate by a Fund. Typically, all distributions are reinvested in additional shares of each Fund at net asset value, unless GMO or its agents receive and process a shareholder election to receive cash distributions. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date.

As a result of court cases involving several countries across the European Union, certain Funds have filed tax reclaims in addition to treaty-based claims, in respect of previously withheld taxes on dividends earned (“EU tax reclaims”). These filings are subject to various administrative proceedings by each local jurisdiction’s tax authority, as well as judicial proceedings. EU tax reclaim and associated interest entitlements that have been recognized, if any, are reflected as Other income in the Statements of Operations. Related receivables, if any, are reflected as EU tax reclaims receivable in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Generally, unless GMO believes that recovery amounts are collectible and free from significant contingencies, recoveries will not be reflected in a Fund’s net asset value. EU tax reclaims and related interest entitlements recognized by a Fund, if any, reduce the amount of foreign taxes, if any, that a Fund may elect to pass-through to its shareholders from a U.S. federal tax perspective. In certain circumstances and to the extent that EU tax reclaims recognized by a Fund were previously passed-through as foreign tax credits to its U.S. taxable shareholders, a Fund may enter into a closing agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). Doing so will enable a Fund to quantify and remit its tax liability related to any recoveries (on behalf of its shareholders). Based on current guidance from the IRS, it is expected that International Equity Fund will enter into a closing agreement with the IRS. Accordingly, estimated charges related to International Equity Fund’s closing agreement liability are presented as a reduction of Other income in the Statements of Operations and its estimated closing agreement liability is presented as Payable for IRS closing agreement fees in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Each Fund may be subject to taxation on realized capital gains, repatriation proceeds and other transaction-based charges imposed by certain countries in which it invests. Transaction-based charges are generally calculated as a percentage of the transaction amount. Taxes related to capital gains realized during the year ended February 28, 2021, if any, are reflected as part of Net realized gain (loss) in the Statements of Operations. Changes in tax liabilities related to capital gain taxes on unrealized investment gains, if any, are reflected as part of Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the Statements of Operations.

Foreign taxes paid by each Fund may be treated, to the extent permissible by the Code (and other applicable U.S. federal tax guidance) and if that Fund so elects, as if paid by U.S. shareholders of that Fund.

Expenses and class allocations

Custodian, Fund Accounting Agent and Transfer Agent

State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) serves as the Funds’ custodian, fund accounting agent and transfer agent. Prior to November 3, 2017, Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. served as the Funds’ custodian and fund accounting agent except for Climate Change Fund, Cyclical Focus Fund, Japan Value Creation Fund, Quality Fund and U.S. Equity Fund. Cash balances maintained at the custodian and transfer agent are held in a Demand Deposit Account and interest income earned, if any, is shown as interest income in the Statements of Operations.

Purchases and redemptions of Fund shares

GMO also may waive or reduce the purchase premium or redemption fee for a cash purchase or redemption of a Fund’s shares if the Fund will not incur transaction costs or will incur reduced transaction costs. For example, GMO may reduce the purchase premium to the extent that securities are used to purchase a Fund’s shares (taking into account transaction costs, stamp duties or transfer fees), and GMO may reduce redemption fees to the extent a Fund uses portfolio securities to redeem its shares (taking into account transaction costs, stamp duties or transfer fees).

As of February 28, 2021, none of the Funds charge a purchase premium or redemption fee. Historical information on purchase premiums and redemption fees are provided in the table below


Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund		For the period from December 1, 2018 to November 22, 2019, the premium on cash purchases and the fee on cash redemptions were each 0.40% of the amount invested or redeemed. Prior to December 1, 2018, the premium on cash purchases and the fee on cash redemptions were each 0.80% of the amount invested or redeemed.
Emerging Markets Fund		For the period from December 1, 2018 to November 22, 2019, the premium on cash purchases and the fee on cash redemptions were each 0.40% of the amount invested or redeemed. Prior to December 1, 2018, the premium on cash purchases and the fee on cash redemptions were each 0.80% of the amount invested or redeemed.

Other matters

Emerging Markets Fund (“EMF”)

Indian regulators alleged in 2002 that EMF violated some conditions under which it was granted permission to operate in India and have restricted some of EMF’s locally held assets pending resolution of the dispute. Although these locally held assets remain the property of EMF, a portion of the assets are not permitted to be withdrawn from EMF’s local custodial account located in India. The amount of restricted assets is small relative to the size of EMF, representing approximately 0.12% of the Fund’s total net assets as of February 28, 2021, though in recognition of the potential liability, a portion of that amount is included as a Miscellaneous payable within the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The effect of this claim on the value of the restricted assets, and all matters relating to EMF’s response to these allegations, are subject to the supervision and control of GMO Trust’s Board of Trustees. Any costs in respect of this matter will be borne by EMF.

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

An investment in a Fund is not a bank deposit and, therefore, is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

• COMMODITIES RISK. Commodity prices can be extremely volatile and are affected by many factors. Exposure to commodities can cause the value of a Fund’s shares to decline or fluctuate in a rapid and unpredictable manner. In addition, the value of commodity-related derivatives or indirect investments in commodities may fluctuate more than the commodity, commodities or commodity index to which they relate. See “Derivatives and Short Sales Risk” for a discussion of specific risks of a Fund’s derivatives investments, including commodity-related derivatives.

• COUNTERPARTY RISK. Funds that enter into contracts with counterparties, such as repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements or OTC derivatives contracts, or that lend their securities run the risk that the counterparty will be unable or unwilling to make timely settlement payments or otherwise honor its obligations. If a counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations, goes bankrupt, or otherwise experiences a business interruption, the Fund could miss investment opportunities or otherwise be forced to hold investments it would prefer to sell, resulting in losses for the Fund. In addition, a Fund may suffer losses if a counterparty fails to comply with applicable laws, regulations or other requirements. The Funds are not subject to any limit on their exposure to any one counterparty nor to a requirement that counterparties with whom they enter into contracts maintain a specific rating by a nationally recognized rating organization. Counterparty risk is pronounced during unusually adverse market conditions and is particularly acute in environments in which financial services firms are exposed (as they were in 2008) to systemic risks of the type evidenced by the insolvency of Lehman Brothers and subsequent market disruptions.



				125

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

Counterparty risk with respect to derivatives has been and will continue to be affected by new rules and regulations relating to the derivatives market. As described under “Derivatives and Short Sales Risk,” some derivatives transactions are required to be centrally cleared, and a party to a cleared derivatives transaction is subject to the credit risk of the clearing house and the clearing member through which it holds its cleared position. Credit risk of market participants with respect to derivatives that are centrally cleared is concentrated in a few clearing houses, and it is not clear how an insolvency proceeding of a clearing house would be conducted and what impact an insolvency of a clearing house would have on the financial system. Also, in the event of a counterparty’s (or its affiliate’s) insolvency, the possibility exists that the Funds’ ability to exercise remedies, such as the termination of transactions, netting of obligations or realization on collateral, could be stayed or eliminated under special resolution regimes adopted in the United States, the European Union and various other jurisdictions. Such regimes provide governmental authorities broad authority to intervene when a financial institution is experiencing financial difficulty. In particular, in the European Union, governmental authorities could reduce, eliminate, or convert to equity the liabilities to the Funds of a counterparty experiencing financial difficulties (sometimes referred to as a “bail in”).

• CREDIT RISK. This is the risk that the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income investment or the obligors of obligations underlying an asset-backed security will be unable or unwilling to satisfy their obligation to pay principal and interest or otherwise to honor their obligations in a timely manner. The market price of a fixed income investment will normally decline as a result (and/or in anticipation) of the issuer’s, guarantor’s, or obligors’ failure to meet their payment obligations or a downgrading of the credit rating of the investment. This risk is particularly acute in environments in which financial services firms are exposed (as they were in 2008) to systemic risks of the type evidenced by the insolvency of Lehman Brothers and subsequent market disruptions. Fixed income investments also are subject to illiquidity risk. See “Illiquidity Risk.”

Asset-backed securities may be backed by many types of assets and their payment of interest and repayment of principal largely depend on the cash flows generated by the assets backing them. The obligations of issuers also may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors. A Fund also is exposed to credit risk on a reference security to the extent it writes protection under credit default swaps. See “Derivatives and Short Sales Risk” for more information regarding risks associated with the use of credit default swaps.



126

GMO Trust Funds

Some Funds may lend their portfolio securities. A Fund that lends its portfolio securities bears the risk of delay in the recovery of loaned securities, including possible impairment of a Fund’s ability to vote the securities, and of loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower fail financially. A Fund also bears the risk that the value of investments made with collateral may decline.

• CURRENCY RISK. Currency risk is the risk that fluctuations in exchange rates will adversely affect the market value of a Fund’s investments. Currency risk includes the risk that the currencies in which a Fund’s investments are traded, in which a Fund receives income, or in which a Fund has taken a position will decline in value. Currency risk also includes the risk that the currency to which the Fund has obtained exposure through hedging declines in value relative to the currency being hedged, in which event the Fund is likely to realize a loss on both the hedging instrument and the currency being hedged. Currency exchange rates can fluctuate significantly for many reasons. See “Market Disruption and Geopolitical Risk.” Many of the Funds use derivatives to take currency positions that are under- or over-weighted (in some cases significantly) relative to the currency exposure of their portfolios and their benchmarks. If the exchange rates of the currencies involved do not move as expected, a Fund could lose money on both its holdings of a particular currency and the derivative. See also “Non-U.S. Investment Risk.”

• DERIVATIVES AND SHORT SALES RISK. All of the Funds may invest in derivatives, which are financial contracts whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of underlying assets, such as securities, commodities or currencies, reference rates, such as interest rates, currency exchange rates or inflation rates, or indices. Derivatives involve the risk that their value may not change as expected relative to changes in the value of the assets, rates, or indices they are designed to track. Derivatives include, but are not limited to, futures contracts, forward contracts, foreign currency contracts, swap contracts, contracts for differences, options on securities and indices, options on futures contracts, options on swap contracts, interest rate caps, floors and collars, reverse repurchase agreements, and other OTC contracts.

decide not to pursue its claims against the counterparty to avoid the cost and unpredictability of legal proceedings. The Fund, therefore, runs the risk of being unable to obtain payments GMO believes are owed to it under an OTC derivatives contract or of those payments being delayed or made only after the Fund has incurred the cost of litigation.

In some ways, cleared derivative arrangements are less favorable to mutual funds than bilateral arrangements, for example, by requiring that funds provide more margin for their cleared derivative positions. Also, as a general matter, in contrast to a bilateral derivative position, following a period of notice to a Fund, a clearing member at any time can require termination of an existing cleared derivative position or an increase in the margin required at the outset of a transaction. Clearing houses also have broad rights to increase the margin required for existing positions or to terminate those positions at any time. Any increase in margin requirements



128

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

or termination of existing cleared derivative positions by the clearing member or the clearing house could interfere with the ability of a Fund to pursue its investment strategy, and any increase in margin held by a clearing member could expose a Fund to greater credit risk to its clearing member. Also, a Fund is subject to risk if it enters into a derivatives transaction that is required to be cleared (or that GMO expects to be cleared) and no clearing member is willing or able to clear the transaction on the Fund’s behalf. In those cases, the position might have to be terminated, and the Fund could lose some or all of the benefit of the position, including loss of an increase in the value of the position and loss of hedging protection. In addition, the documentation governing the relationship between the Funds and clearing members generally is less favorable to the Funds than the documentation for typical bilateral derivatives. For example, documentation relating to cleared derivatives generally includes a one-way indemnity by the Funds in favor of the clearing member for losses the clearing member incurs as the Funds’ clearing member. Also, such documentation typically does not provide the Funds any remedies if the clearing member defaults or becomes insolvent. While futures contracts entail similar risks, the risks are likely to be more pronounced for cleared derivatives due to their more limited liquidity and market history.

Options. Some Funds are permitted to write options. The market price of an option is affected by many factors, including changes in the market prices or dividend rates of underlying securities (or in the case of indices, the securities in such indices); the time remaining before expiration; changes in interest rates or exchange rates; and changes in the actual or perceived volatility of the



				129

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

relevant stock market and underlying securities. The market price of an option also may be adversely affected if the market for the option becomes less liquid. In addition, since an American-style option allows the holder to exercise its rights at any time before the option’s expiration, the writer of an American-style option has no control over when it will be required to fulfill its obligations as a writer of the option. (The writer of a European-style option is not subject to this risk because the holder may only exercise the option on its expiration date). If a Fund writes a call option and does not hold the underlying security or instrument, the Fund’s potential loss is theoretically unlimited.

• FOCUSED INVESTMENT RISK. Funds with investments that are focused in a limited number of asset classes, sectors, industries, issuers, currencies, countries, or regions (or in sectors within a country or region) that are subject to the same or similar risk factors and Funds with investments whose prices are closely correlated are subject to greater overall risk than Funds with investments that are more diversified or whose prices are not as closely correlated.

• FUND OF FUNDS RISK. A Fund that invests in Underlying Funds (including underlying GMO Funds) is exposed to the risk that the Underlying Funds will not perform as expected. A Fund also is indirectly exposed to all of the risks to which the Underlying Funds are exposed.

• LARGE SHAREHOLDER RISK. To the extent a large number of shares of a Fund is held by a single shareholder (e.g., an institutional investor or another GMO Fund) or a group of shareholders with a common investment strategy (e.g., GMO asset allocation accounts), the Fund is subject to the risk that a redemption by those shareholders of all or a large portion of their Fund shares will adversely affect the Fund’s performance by forcing the Fund to sell portfolio securities, at disadvantageous prices to raise the cash needed to satisfy the redemption request. In addition, the Funds and other accounts over which GMO has investment discretion that invest in the Funds are not limited in how often they may sell Fund shares. The Asset Allocation Funds and separate accounts managed by GMO for its clients hold substantial percentages of the outstanding shares of many Funds, and asset allocation decisions by GMO may result in substantial redemptions from (or investments in) those Funds, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is required to sell investments when it would not have otherwise done so. Redemptions of a large number of shares also may increase transaction costs or, by necessitating a sale of portfolio securities, have adverse tax consequences for Fund shareholders. Further, from time to time a Fund may trade in anticipation of a purchase or redemption order that ultimately is not received or differs in size from the actual order, leading to temporary underexposure or overexposure to the Fund’s intended investment program. In addition, redemptions and purchases of shares by a large shareholder or group of shareholders could limit the use of any capital losses (including capital loss carryforwards) to offset realized capital gains (if any) and other losses that would otherwise reduce distributable net investment income. In addition, large shareholders may limit or prevent a Fund’s use of equalization for U.S. federal tax purposes.

To the extent a Fund invests in other GMO Funds subject to large shareholder risk, the Fund is indirectly subject to this risk.

• LEVERAGING RISK. The use of traditional borrowing (including to meet redemption requests), reverse repurchase agreements and other derivatives and securities lending creates leverage (i.e. a Fund’s investment exposures exceed its net asset value). Leverage increases a Fund’s losses when the value of its investments (including derivatives) declines. Because many derivatives have a leverage component (i.e. a notional value in excess of the assets needed to establish or maintain the derivative position), adverse changes in the value or level of the underlying asset, rate or index may result in a loss substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivative itself. In the case of swaps, the risk of loss generally is related to a notional principal amount, even if the parties have not made any initial investment. Some derivatives, similar to short sales, have the potential for unlimited loss, regardless of the size of the initial investment. Similarly, a Fund’s portfolio will be leveraged and can incur losses if the value of the Fund’s assets declines between the time a redemption request is received or deemed to be received by a Fund (which in some cases is the business day prior to actual receipt by the Fund of the redemption request) and the time at which the Fund liquidates assets to meet redemption requests. Such a decline in the value of a Fund’s assets is more likely in the case of Funds managed from GMO’s non-U.S. offices for which the time period between the determination of net asset value and corresponding liquidation of assets could be longer due to time zone differences. In the case of redemptions representing a significant portion of a Fund’s portfolio, the leverage effects described above can be significant and could expose a Fund and non-redeeming shareholders to material losses.

• MANAGEMENT AND OPERATIONAL RISK. Each Fund is subject to management risk because it relies on GMO to achieve its investment objective. Each Fund runs the risk that GMO’s investment techniques will fail to produce desired results and cause the Fund to incur significant losses. GMO also may fail to use derivatives effectively, choosing to hedge or not to hedge positions at

disadvantageous times. In the case of Tax-Managed International Equities Fund, GMO’s tax-management strategies may be ineffective or limited by market conditions, the timing of cash flows into and out of the Fund, and current or future changes in tax legislation and regulation.

The usefulness of GMO’s models may be diminished by the faulty incorporation of mathematical models into computer code, by reliance on proprietary and third-party technology that includes errors, omissions, bugs, or viruses, and by the retrieval of limited or imperfect data for processing by the model. These risks are more likely to occur when GMO is making changes to its models. Any of these risks could adversely affect a Fund’s performance.

The Funds and their service providers (including GMO) are susceptible to cyber-attacks and to technological malfunctions that have effects similar to those of a cyber-attack. Cyber-attacks include, among others, stealing or corrupting data maintained online or digitally, preventing legitimate users from accessing information or services on a website, releasing confidential information without authorization, and disrupting operations. Successful cyber-attacks against, or security breakdowns of, a Fund, GMO, a sub-adviser, or a custodian, transfer agent, or other service provider may adversely affect the Fund or its shareholders. For instance, cyber-attacks may interfere with the processing of shareholder transactions, affect a Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, cause the release or misappropriation of private shareholder information or confidential Fund information, impede trading, cause reputational damage, and subject the Fund to regulatory fines, penalties or financial losses, and additional compliance costs. The Funds’ service providers regularly experience cyber-attacks and expect they will continue to do so. While GMO has established business continuity plans and systems designed to prevent, detect and respond to cyber-attacks, those plans and systems have inherent limitations. Similar types of cyber security risks also are present for issuers of securities in which the Funds invest, which could have material adverse consequences for those issuers and result in a decline in the market price of their securities. Furthermore, as a result of cyber-attacks, technological disruptions, malfunctions, or failures, an exchange or market may close or suspend trading in specific securities or the entire market, which could prevent the Funds from, among other things, buying or selling securities or accurately pricing their investments. The Funds cannot directly control cyber security plans and systems of their service providers, the Funds’ counterparties, issuers of securities in which the Funds invest, or securities markets and exchanges, and such service providers, counterparties, or issuers may have limited, if any, indemnification obligations to GMO or the Funds, each of whom could be negatively impacted as a result.



				133

including securities held by the Funds. Fraud and other deceptive practices committed by an issuer of securities held by a Fund undermine GMO’s due diligence efforts and, when discovered, will likely cause a steep decline in the market price of those securities and thus negatively affect the value of the Fund’s investments. In addition, when discovered, financial fraud may contribute to overall market volatility, which can negatively affect a Fund’s investment program.

War, terrorism, economic uncertainty, and related geopolitical events, such as sanctions, tariffs, the imposition of exchange controls or other cross-border trade barriers, have led, and in the future may lead, to increased short-term market volatility and may have adverse long-term effects on U.S. and world economies and markets generally. For example, the U.S. has imposed economic sanctions, which consist of asset freezes, restrictions on dealings in debt and equity, and certain industry-specific restrictions. These types of sanctions have recently been applied against the Venezuelan and Russian governments, as well as against certain Russian and Venezuelan officials and institutions. These sanctions have resulted, and any additional sanctions or intergovernmental actions or even the threat of further sanctions could result, in a decline in the value and liquidity of Russian and Venezuelan securities, a weakening of the Russian and Venezuelan currencies or other adverse consequences to their respective economies. Sanctions impair the ability of the Funds to buy, sell, receive or deliver those securities and/or assets that are subject to the sanctions. In addition, trade disputes (such as the “trade war” between the United States and China that intensified in 2018 and 2019) may affect investor and consumer confidence and adversely affect financial markets and the broader economy, perhaps suddenly and to a significant degree. Events such as these and their impact on the Funds are difficult to predict.

services, event cancellations and restrictions, service cancellations, rapid increases in unemployment, increased demand for and strain on government resources, significant challenges in healthcare service preparation and delivery, and prolonged quarantines, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak could negatively affect the global economy, the economies of individual countries, and the financial performance of individual issuers, sectors, industries, asset classes, and markets in significant and unforeseen ways and may continue to do so in the future. Health crises caused by the outbreak of COVID-19 may also exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, economic, market and financial risks. The effects of the outbreak in developing or emerging market countries may be greater due to less established health care systems. The COVID-19 pandemic and its effects may be short term or may last for an extended period of time, and in either case could result in significant market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, declines in global financial markets, higher default rates, and a substantial economic downturn or recession. The foregoing could impair the Funds’ ability to maintain operational standards (such as with respect to satisfying redemption requests), disrupt the operations of the Funds’ service providers, adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Funds’ investments, and negatively impact the Funds’ performance and your investment in a Fund.

• MARKET RISK. All of the Funds are subject to market risk, which is the risk that the market price of their holdings will decline. Market risks include:



				135

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

The extent to which the market price of a fixed income investment changes with changes in interest rates is referred to as interest rate duration, which can be measured mathematically or empirically. A longer-maturity investment generally has longer interest rate duration because its fixed rate is locked in for a longer period of time. Floating-rate or variable-rate investments, generally have shorter interest rate durations because their interest rates are not fixed but rather float up and down as interest rates change. Conversely, inverse floating-rate investments have durations that move in the opposite direction from short-term interest rates and thus tend to underperform fixed rate investments when interest rates rise but outperform them when interest rates decline. Fixed income investments paying no interest, such as zero coupon and principal-only securities, are subject to additional interest rate risk.

Fixed income securities denominated in foreign currencies also are subject to currency risk. See “Currency Risk.”

• MERGER ARBITRAGE RISK. Some Funds engage in transactions in which the Fund purchases securities at prices below the value of the consideration GMO expects the Fund to receive upon consummation of a proposed merger, exchange offer, tender offer, or other similar transaction (“merger arbitrage transactions”). The purchase price paid by the Fund may substantially exceed the market price of the securities before the announcement of the transaction.

If a Fund engages in merger arbitrage and the merger later appears unlikely to be consummated or, in fact, is not consummated or is delayed, the market price of the securities purchased by the Fund is likely to decline sharply, resulting in losses to the Fund. The risk/reward payout of merger arbitrage strategies typically is asymmetric, with the losses in failed transactions often far exceeding the gains in successful transactions. A proposed merger can fail to be consummated for many reasons, including regulatory and antitrust restrictions, industry weakness, company specific events, failed financings, and general market declines.

Merger arbitrage strategies are subject to the risk of overall market movements, and a Fund may experience losses even if a transaction is consummated. A Fund’s investments in derivatives or short sales of securities to hedge or otherwise adjust long or short investment exposure in connection with a merger arbitrage may not perform as GMO expected or may otherwise reduce the Fund’s gains or increase its losses. Also, a Fund may be unable to hedge against market fluctuations or other risks. In addition, a Fund may sell securities short when GMO expects the Fund to receive the securities upon consummation of a transaction; if the Fund does not actually receive the securities, the Fund will have an unintended “naked” short position and may be required to cover its short position at a time when the securities sold short have appreciated in value, thus resulting in a loss. A Fund’s merger arbitrage transactions could result in tax inefficiencies, including larger distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains than otherwise would be the case.

• NON-DIVERSIFIED FUNDS. Some of the Funds are not “diversified” investment companies within the meaning of the 1940 Act. This means they are allowed to invest in the securities of a relatively small number of issuers. As a result, they are likely to be subject to greater credit, market and other risks than if their investments were more diversified, and poor performance by a single investment is likely to have a greater impact on their performance.

Funds that invest a significant portion of their assets in securities of issuers tied economically to emerging countries (or investments related to emerging markets) are subject to greater non-U.S. investment risk than Funds investing primarily in more developed non-U.S. countries (or markets). The risks of investing in those securities include: greater fluctuations in currency exchange rates; increased risk of default (by both government and private issuers); greater social, economic, and political uncertainty and instability (including the risk of war); increased risk of nationalization, expropriation, or other confiscation of issuer assets; greater governmental involvement in the economy or in the affairs of specific companies or industries (including wholly or partially state-owned enterprises); less governmental supervision and regulation of securities markets and participants in those markets; controls on investment, capital controls and limitations on repatriation of invested capital, dividends, interest and other income and on a Fund’s ability to exchange local currencies for U.S. dollars; inability to purchase and sell investments or otherwise settle security or derivative transactions (i.e. a market freeze); unavailability of currency hedging techniques; less rigorous auditing and financial reporting standards and resulting unavailability of reliable information about issuers; slower clearance and settlement; difficulties in obtaining and enforcing legal judgments; and significantly smaller market capitalizations of issuers. In addition, the economies of emerging countries may depend predominantly on only a few industries or revenues from particular commodities. The economies of emerging countries often are more volatile than the economies of developed countries. For example, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, which regulates auditors of U.S. public companies, is unable to inspect audit work papers in certain foreign countries, and the ability of the SEC, the U.S. Department of Justice and other authorities to bring and enforce actions against foreign issuers or foreign persons is limited.

Temporary Defensive Positions. Temporary defensive positions are positions that are inconsistent with a Fund’s principal investment strategies and are taken in response to adverse market, economic, political or other conditions. The Funds normally do not take temporary defensive positions. To the extent a Fund takes a temporary defensive position, or otherwise holds cash, cash equivalents, or high quality debt investments on a temporary basis, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

4.	Derivative financial instruments

The Funds may use derivatives to gain long investment exposure to securities or other assets. For example, a Fund may use derivatives instead of investing directly in equity securities, including using equity derivatives to maintain equity exposure when it holds cash by “equitizing” its cash balances using futures contracts or other types of derivatives. The Funds also may use currency derivatives (including forward currency contracts, futures contracts, swap contracts and options) to gain exposure to a given currency.

The Funds may use derivatives in an attempt to reduce their investment exposures (which may result in a reduction below zero). A Fund also may use currency derivatives in an attempt to reduce some aspect of the currency exposure in its portfolio. For these purposes, the Fund may use an instrument denominated in a different currency that GMO believes is highly correlated with the relevant currency.

The Funds may use derivatives in an attempt to adjust elements of their investment exposures to various securities, sectors, markets, indices, and currencies without actually having to sell existing investments or make new direct investments. For example, if a Fund holds a large proportion of stocks of companies in a particular sector and GMO believes that stocks of companies in another sector will outperform those stocks, the Fund might use a short futures contract on an appropriate index (to synthetically “sell” a portion of the Fund’s portfolio) in combination with a long futures contract on another index (to synthetically “buy” exposure to that index). In adjusting its investment exposures, a Fund also may use currency derivatives in an attempt to adjust its currency exposure, seeking currency exposure that is different (in some cases, significantly different) from the currencies in which its equities are traded.



138

GMO Trust Funds

February 28, 2021

The Funds may use derivatives to effect transactions intended as substitutes for securities lending.

Each of the Funds may have investment exposures in excess of its net assets (i.e. the Fund may be leveraged).

A Fund’s foreign currency exposure may differ significantly from the currencies in which its equities are traded.

Certain derivatives transactions that may be used by the Funds, including certain interest rate swaps and certain credit default index swaps, are required to be transacted through a central clearing organization. The Funds hold cleared derivatives transactions, if any, through clearing members, who are members of derivatives clearing houses. Certain other derivatives, including futures and certain options, are transacted on exchanges. The Funds hold exchange-traded derivatives through clearing brokers that are typically members of the exchanges. In contrast to bilateral derivatives transactions, following a period of advance notice to the Fund, clearing brokers generally can require termination of existing cleared or exchange-traded derivatives transactions at any time and increases in margin above the margin that it required at the beginning of a transaction. Clearing houses and exchanges also have broad rights to increase margin requirements for existing transactions and to terminate transactions. Any such increase or termination could interfere with the ability of a Fund to pursue its investment strategy. Also, a Fund is subject to execution risk if it enters into a derivatives transaction that is required to be cleared (or that GMO expects to be cleared), and no clearing member is willing or able to clear the transaction on the Fund’s behalf. In that case, the transaction might have to be terminated, and the Fund could lose some or all of the benefit of any increase in the value of the transaction after the time of the transaction.

The Funds may enter into forward currency contracts, including forward cross currency contracts. A forward currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date (or to pay or receive the amount of the change in relative values of the two currencies). The market price of a forward currency contract fluctuates with changes in forward currency exchange rates. The value of each of the Fund’s forward currency contracts is marked-to-market daily using rates supplied by a quotation service and changes in value are recorded by each Fund as unrealized gains or losses. Realized gains or losses on the contracts are equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was settled.

Certain Funds are party to International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements, Global Master Repurchase Agreements, Master Securities Loan Agreements or other similar types of agreements (collectively, “Master Agreements”) that generally govern the terms of OTC derivative transactions, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements and securities loans. The Master Agreements may include collateral posting terms and set-off provisions that apply in the event of a default and/or termination event. Upon the occurrence of such an event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty, the Master Agreements may permit the non-defaulting party to calculate a single net payment to close out applicable transactions. However, there is no guarantee that the terms of a Master Agreement will be enforceable; for example, when bankruptcy or insolvency laws impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset. Additionally, the set-off and netting provisions of a Master Agreement may not extend to the obligations of the counterparty’s affiliates or across varying types of transactions. Because no such event has occurred, the Funds do not presently have a legally enforceable right of set-off and these amounts have not been offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, but have been presented separately in the table below. Termination events may also include a decline in the net assets of a Fund below a certain level over a specified period of time and may entitle a counterparty to elect an early termination of all the transactions under the Master Agreement with that counterparty. Such an election by one or more of the counterparties could have a material adverse impact on a Fund’s operations. An estimate of the aggregate net payment, if any, that may need to be paid by a Fund (or may be received by a Fund) in such an event is represented by the Net Amounts in the tables below. For more information about other uncertainties and risks, see “Investments and other risks” above.

For financial reporting purposes, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities any cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Funds is reported as Due from broker and any cash collateral received from the counterparty is reported as Due to broker. Any non-cash collateral pledged by the Funds is noted in the Schedules of Investments. The tables below show the potential effect of netting arrangements made available by the Master Agreements on the financial position of the Funds. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities generally show derivative assets and derivative liabilities (regardless of whether they are subject to netting arrangements) on a gross basis, which reflects the full risks and exposures of the Fund prior to netting. See Note 2 for information on repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements and securities loans held by the Funds at February 28, 2021, if any.

For each Fund, other than Climate Change Fund, for the period prior to September 25, 2018, Resources Fund, and U.S. Small Cap Value Fund, GMO has contractually agreed to reimburse the Fund for its “Specified Operating Expenses” (as defined below). For Climate Change Fund, for the period prior to September 25, 2018, Resources Fund and U.S. Small Cap Value Fund, GMO has contractually agreed to reimburse the Fund for the portion of its “Specified Operating Expenses” (as defined below) that exceeds 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets (“Expense Threshold Amount”). Any such reimbursements are paid to a Fund concurrently with the Fund’s payment of management fees to GMO.

Subject to the exclusions noted below, “Specified Operating Expenses” means: audit expenses, fund accounting expenses, pricing service expenses, expenses of non-investment related tax services, transfer agency expenses (excluding, in the case of Class I shares, any amounts paid for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to Class I shareholders), expenses of non-investment related legal services provided to the Funds by or at the direction of GMO, organizational and start-up expenses, federal securities law filing expenses, printing expenses, state and federal registration fees and custody expenses. In the case of Emerging Markets Fund, “Specified Operating Expenses” does not include custody expenses, and in the case of Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund, “Specified Operating Expenses” only includes custody expenses to the extent that they exceed 0.10% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

For Resources Fund and U.S Small Cap Value Fund, GMO is permitted to recover from the Fund, on a class-by-class basis, as applicable, the “Specified Operating Expenses” GMO has borne or reimbursed (whether through reduction of its fees or otherwise) to the extent that the Funds’ “Specified Operating Expenses” later fall below the Expense Threshold Amount or the lower expense limit in effect when GMO seeks to recover the expenses. A Fund, however, is not obligated to pay any such amount more than three years after GMO bore or reimbursed an expense. The amount GMO is entitled to recover may not cause a Fund to exceed the Expense Threshold Amount or the lower expense limit in effect when GMO seeks recovery.

For the period starting September 25, 2018, GMO has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or reimburse GMO Climate Change Fund (the “Fund”) to the extent that the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (after applying all other contractual and voluntary expense limitation arrangements in effect at the time) exceed the following amounts for each class of shares, in each case representing the average daily net assets for the indicated class of shares: 0.77% for Class III shares; 0.72% for Class IV shares; 0.705% for Class V shares; 0.675% for Class VI shares; 0.77% for Class R6 shares; and 0.77% for Class I shares (each, an “Expense Cap”). Fees and expenses of the “non-interested” Trustees and legal counsel and independent compliance consultant to the “non-interested” Trustees, investment-related costs (such as brokerage commissions, interest, and acquired fund fees and expenses),

taxes, litigation and indemnification expenses, payments out of assets attributable to Class I shares for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries, judgments, and other extraordinary or non-recurring expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business, are excluded from the Expense Cap.

For the year ended February 28, 2021, GMO did not recoup any previously recorded waivers and/or reimbursements.

As of February 28, 2021, there were no waivers and/or reimbursements subject to possible future recoupment.

For each Fund that pays GMO a management fee, GMO has contractually agreed to waive or reduce that fee, but not below zero, to the extent necessary to offset the management fees paid to GMO that are directly or indirectly borne by the Fund as a result of the Fund’s direct or indirect investments in other GMO Funds.

For each Fund that charges a shareholder service fee, GMO has contractually agreed to waive or reduce the shareholder service fee charged to holders of each class of shares of the Fund, but not below zero, to the extent necessary to offset the shareholder service fees directly or indirectly borne by the class of shares of the Fund as a result of the Fund’s direct or indirect investments in other GMO Funds.

In addition, for Emerging Markets Fund only, GMO has contractually agreed to waive the shareholder service fees charged to holders of each class of shares of the Fund to the extent necessary to prevent the shareholder service fees borne by each class of shares of the Fund from exceeding the percentage of the class’s average daily net assets as follows: 0.20% for Class II shares, 0.15% for Class III shares, 0.10% of Class IV shares, 0.05% for Class V shares, 0.02% for Class VI shares, 0.20% for Class R6 shares and 0.20% for Class I shares.

GMO has contractually agreed to reimburse Class I assets of each Fund (or waive its fees) to the extent that payments for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries from Class I assets exceed 0.10% of such Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class I assets. Effective January 27 2020, GMO has contractually agreed to reimburse Class I assets for Emerging Markets Fund and Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund to the extent payments for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services from Class I assets exceed 0.05% and 0.03%, respectively, of such Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class I assets.

Sub-Transfer Agent/Recordkeeping Payments

Class II, III, IV, V, VI and R6 shares are not subject to payments to third parties for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and other administrative services. GMO may, on a case-by-case basis, make payments for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to shareholders of these classes. Any such payments are made by GMO out of its own resources and are not an additional charge to a Fund or the holders of Class II, III, IV, V, VI or Class R6 shares. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing a financial intermediary to recommend a Fund over another investment.

Class I shares are subject to payments for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to holders of Class I shares through an account maintained by a third party platform or intermediary. These services are not primarily intended to result in the sale of Fund shares but instead to provide ongoing services with respect to holders of Class I shares through a third-party platform or intermediary. Because payments for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services are paid out of a Fund’s Class I assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will increase the cost of an investment in Class I shares. In addition, GMO may, on a case-by-case basis, make payments for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to shareholders of Class I shares. Any such payments are made by GMO out of its own resources and are not an additional charge to a Fund or the holders of Class I shares. These payments create a conflict of interest by influencing a financial intermediary to recommend a Fund over another investment.

Reorganization

Under a plan of reorganization completed at the close of business on January 22, 2021, GMO Climate Change Series Fund, GMO Emerging Domestic Opportunities Series Fund, GMO Emerging Markets Series Fund, GMO Quality Series Fund and GMO Resources Series Fund (each, a “Selling Fund”) transferred all of their assets and liabilities to GMO Climate Change Fund, GMO Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund, GMO Emerging Markets Fund, GMO Quality Fund and GMO Resources Fund (each, an “Acquiring Fund”), respectively, in a reorganization that was approved by the shareholders and that was tax-free from a U.S. federal tax perspective. Prior to the reorganization, each Selling Fund invested all or substantially all of its assets in the corresponding Acquiring Fund and thus had the same investment program as the Acquiring Fund. The purpose of the reorganization was to provide exposure to a more efficient portfolio with substantially similar investment strategies.

Because each Selling Fund was invested in the corresponding Acquiring Fund and no investments were transferred to the Acquiring Fund as part of the reorganization, the Acquiring Funds’ market value of investments, cost of investments and net unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) were unchanged as a result of the reorganization. Since the reorganization did not result in transfers of investments, its impact to the Statement of Operations were not material to the Acquiring Funds. Therefore, pro forma financial statements showing the effect of the reorganization are not presented.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of GMO Trust and Shareholders of

GMO Climate Change Fund, GMO Cyclical Focus Fund, GMO Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund, GMO Emerging Markets Fund, GMO International Equity Fund, GMO-Usonian Japan Value Creation Fund, GMO Quality Fund, GMO Resources Fund, GMO Tax-Managed International Equities Fund, GMO U.S. Equity Fund, and GMO U.S. Small Cap Value Fund

Opinions on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of GMO Climate Change Fund, GMO Cyclical Focus Fund, GMO Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund, GMO Emerging Markets Fund, GMO International Equity Fund, GMO-Usonian Japan Value Creation Fund, GMO Quality Fund, GMO Resources Fund, GMO Tax-Managed International Equities Fund, GMO U.S. Equity Fund, and GMO U.S. Small Cap Value Fund (eleven of the funds constituting GMO Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the “Funds”) as of February 28, 2021, the related statements of operations and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the periods indicated in the table below, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of February 28, 2021, the results of each of their operations and the changes in each of their net assets for each of the periods indicated in the table below and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


GMO Climate Change Fund, GMO Emerging Domestic Opportunities Fund, GMO Emerging Markets Fund, GMO International Equity Fund, GMO Quality Fund, GMO Resources Fund, GMO Tax-Managed International Equities Fund, GMO U.S. Equity Fund		Statements of operations for the year ended February 28, 2021 and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended February 28, 2021
GMO Cyclical Focus Fund		Statements of operations and changes in net assets for the period May 12, 2020 (commencement of operations) through February 28, 2021
GMO-Usonian Japan Value Creation Fund		Statements of operations and changes in net assets for the period September 14, 2020 (commencement of operations) through February 28, 2021
GMO U.S. Small Cap Value Fund		Statement of operations for the year ended February 28, 2021 and statement of changes in net assets for the year ended February 28, 2021 and for the period July 2, 2019 (commencement of operations) through February 29, 2020

Basis for Opinions

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2021 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

GMO Trust Funds

Board Review of Investment Management Agreement

February 28, 2021 (Unaudited)

GMO-Usonian Japan Value Creation Fund

Approval of initial management agreement for GMO-Usonian Japan Value Creation Fund (the “Fund”). At a meeting on July 30, 2020, the Trustees of GMO Trust (the “Trust”) approved for an initial two-year term commencing August 11, 2020 the management agreement between Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC (the “Manager”) and the Trust, on behalf of the Fund. In approving the initial management agreement, the Trustees considered information they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them, to be relevant, including information relating specifically to the Fund as well as to the Trust generally and the other series of the Trust (collectively, the “GMO funds”).

At a meeting on July 30, 2020, the Trustees discussed materials provided by GMO for purposes of considering GMO’s proposal to establish the Fund as a new series of the Trust and a proposed management agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and GMO. During this meeting, the Trustees met with the senior member of the investment team that was expected to be primarily responsible for the investment management of the Fund.

Since the Fund had not yet commenced operations, the Trustees were unable to consider its investment performance. The Trustees therefore considered the performance of other funds and accounts advised by the investment team that would advise the Fund, noting that this performance was achieved by the investment team while its members were employed by a different investment advisory firm.

The Trustees considered the Fund’s estimated expense ratio (i.e. annual operating expenses per share as a percentage of average annual net asset value per share) as compared to the expense ratios of other funds in a peer group determined by GMO to have similar investment characteristics. In considering the Fund’s expense ratio, the Trustees took into account GMO’s undertaking to reimburse a portion of the Fund’s operating expenses.

The Trustees also considered the fees to be paid to GMO under the Fund’s management and shareholder servicing and supplemental support agreements. The Trustees reviewed information provided by GMO comparing the management fee to be paid by the Fund to the management fees of other funds and accounts pursuing similar investment strategies that are advised by the investment team that would advise the Fund, as well as funds managed by other managers determined by GMO to have similar investment characteristics. The Trustees also considered the shareholder servicing fees to be charged by GMO to different share classes of the Fund in light of the services to be provided to each class by GMO.

The Trustees also considered that the non-investment management services to be provided by GMO to the Fund, including but not limited to valuation, legal and compliance, accounting, operational and technology services, were the same as the services provided by GMO under its current management agreements with other GMO funds. The Trustees also considered the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on various aspects of GMO’s operations, including portfolio management, marketing, distribution and data security, and expressed overall satisfaction with the way GMO’s business continuity plan had facilitated the continuation of operations during the pandemic.

Since the Fund had not yet commenced operations, no information regarding GMO’s profitability with respect to the Fund was available to the Trustees. The Trustees did, however, consider information provided to them by GMO regarding its profits from managing the Trust overall. The Trustees also considered how the proposed fees compared to fees paid by other GMO funds and took note of “fallout benefits” realized by Manager that would result from its management of the Fund and the other GMO funds. The Trustees also considered possible alternative fee arrangements. As the Fund had not yet commenced operations, the Trustees did not consider possible economies of scale to GMO associated with managing the Fund.

The Trustees also considered the experience and sophistication of GMO and its personnel (including, among others, management and investment management personnel, and legal, compliance, and risk-management personnel), noting personnel changes made during the past year and earlier. The Trustees also considered the resources GMO would employ in managing the Fund, GMO’s organization, its reputation, its risk management policies, and other matters relating to GMO and the nature and quality of its services to be provided to the Fund.

After reviewing these and other factors, the Trustees concluded, in the context of their overall review of the Fund’s initial management agreement, that the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided supported their approval of the Fund’s management agreement and that the fee to be charged under that agreement was reasonable.

In their deliberations, the Trustees considered the factors they individually deemed relevant, with each Trustee weighting specific factors as he thought appropriate. Following their deliberations, the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust voting separately, and then all Trustees voting together, approved the Fund’s initial management agreement.

Actual Expenses

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, this section of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

GMO Alternative Allocation Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Asset Allocation team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although GMO does not manage the Fund to, or control the Fund’s risk relative to, any securities index or securities benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index is included for comparative purposes only.

Class VI shares of GMO Alternative Allocation Fund returned +0.01% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +0.33% for the FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index.

One of the underlying strategies, Systematic Global Macro had a solid positive return and, as a sizeable allocation, was the biggest contributor to total Fund returns with a 2.0% contribution. Event-Driven and High Yield also made decent contributions of 0.5% and 0.4%, respectively, as Event-Driven had a modest positive return but a sizeable allocation, while High Yield enjoyed a larger return on a smaller allocation. The Equity Dislocation Strategy, which is broadly 100% long cheap global Value and 100% short expensive global Growth, was added towards the end of 2020, and got off to a great start adding almost 0.5% to the total Fund return. The holdings in cash and equivalents, which are needed to collateralize the underlying exposures, generated a modest positive return as did the Asset Allocation Long/Short strategy and the Relative Value Credit strategy, while the Put Selling strategy had negligible impact. Unfortunately, the Fixed Income Absolute Return Strategy, which had a substantial exposure, suffered a very challenging year, and largely offset the positive contributions from the other strategies.

Comparison of Change in Value of a $300,000,000 Investment in

GMO Alternative Allocation Fund Class VI Shares and the FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

For Class VI, R6 and I the gross expense ratio of 1.43%, 1.59% and 1.69%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 1.16%, 1.32% and 1.42% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

(a)	GMO Alternative Allocation SPC Ltd. is a 100% owned subsidiary of GMO Alternative Allocation Fund. As such, the holdings of GMO Alternative Allocation SPC Ltd. have been included with GMO Alternative Allocation Fund.

The table incorporates aggregate indirect country exposure associated with investments in the underlying funds. The table excludes short-term investments. The table includes exposure through the use of certain derivative financial instruments and excludes exposure through certain currency linked derivatives such as forward currency contracts and currency options. The table is based on duration adjusted net exposures (both investments and derivatives), taking into account the market value of securities and the notional amounts of swaps and other derivative financial instruments. Duration is based on GMO’s models. The greater the duration of a bond, the greater its contribution to the concentration percentage. Credit default swap exposures are factored into the duration-adjusted exposure using the reference security and applying the same methodology to that security. The table is not normalized, thus, due to the exclusions listed above and negative exposures, which may be attributable to derivatives or short sales, if any, the tables may not total to 100%.

†	“Other Emerging” is comprised of emerging countries that each represent between (1.0)% and 1.0% of Total Net Assets.

‡	“Other Developed” is comprised of developed countries that each represent between (1.0)% and 1.0% of Total Net Assets.

GMO Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Asset Allocation team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although GMO does not manage the Fund to, or control the Fund’s risk relative to, any securities index or securities benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) is included for comparative purposes only.

Class III shares of GMO Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund returned +5.60% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +1.59% for the CPI.

Although it was a reasonable 12 months from an absolute performance perspective, relative to burgeoning equity markets it was distinctly lackluster. In particular, we put broad market hedges in place to remove a significant proportion of the effective exposure to equities in May 2020 as we believed that valuations were excessive, and risk was elevated due to COVID-19. This decision proved highly detrimental to performance as equities continued their strong run. Within equities, a bias to a “Value” style also proved detrimental to performance as 2020 was the worst year on record for the performance of “Value” versus “Growth” (for the 12 months under consideration, the MSCI All Country World Index (“ACWI”) Value Index underperformed the MSCI ACWI Growth Index by 24.3%). Fixed income exposure was additive to performance, driven by an excellent return from our High Yield/Distressed Debt positions. The equity long/short and alternative strategies also enjoyed solid positive returns, but simply could not keep up with the rampant equity markets, despite the Special Opportunities Strategy having a tremendous year.

Comparison of Change in Value of a $5,000,000 Investment in

GMO Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund Class III Shares, the Consumer Price Index and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Treasury Inflation Notes: 1-10 Year Index

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

Prior to January 1, 2012, the Fund served as a principal component of a broader GMO real return strategy that also included a pooled investment vehicle with a cash-like benchmark. The returns shown for periods prior to January 1, 2012 are for Class III shares of the Fund under the Fund’s prior fee arrangement. Under the Fund’s current fee arrangement, the returns for periods prior to January 1, 2012 would have been lower.

For Class III, IV, MF, R6 and I the gross expense ratio of 1.03%, 0.98%, 0.98%, 1.03% and 1.13%, respectively, is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Classes listed above, the corresponding net expense ratio of 0.88%, 0.83%, 0.83%, 0.88% and 0.98% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

The table incorporates aggregate indirect country exposure associated with investments in the underlying funds. The table excludes short-term investments. The table includes exposure through the use of certain derivative financial instruments and excludes exposure through certain currency linked derivatives such as forward currency contracts and currency options. The table is based on duration adjusted net exposures (both investments and derivatives), taking into account the market value of securities and the notional amounts of swaps and other derivative financial instruments. Duration is based on GMO’s models. The greater the duration of a bond, the greater contribution to the concentration percentage. Credit default swap exposure are factored into the duration adjusted exposure using the reference securities and applying the same methodology to that security. The tables are not normalized, thus, due to the exclusions listed above and negative exposure which may be attributable to derivatives or short sales, if any, the tables not total to 100%.

The table incorporates aggregate indirect country exposure associated with investments in the underlying funds. The table excludes short-term investments. The table includes exposure through the use of certain derivative financial instruments and excludes exposure through certain currency linked derivatives such as forward currency contracts and currency options. The table is based on duration adjusted net exposures (both investments and derivatives), taking into account the market value of securities and the notional amounts of swaps and other derivative financial instruments. Duration is based on GMO’s models. The greater the duration of a bond, the greater contribution to the concentration percentage. Credit default swap exposure are factored into the duration adjusted exposure using the reference securities and applying the same methodology to that security. The tables are not normalized, thus, due to the exclusions listed above and negative exposure which may be attributable to derivatives or short sales, if any, the tables not total to 100%.

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Asset Allocation team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO Global Asset Allocation Fund returned +15.39% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +20.00% for the Fund’s benchmark, the GMO Global Asset Allocation Index (65% MSCI All Country World Index (“ACWI”) and 35% Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index).

The Fund’s underweight in equities, compared to the benchmark, had a negative impact on performance, and this was exacerbated by the bias in developed equities away from the decently performing U.S. towards markets outside the U.S., which fared less well. A bias to a “Value” style proved detrimental to performance as 2020 was the worst year on record for the performance of “Value” versus “Growth” (for the 12 months under consideration, the MSCI ACWI Value Index underperformed the MSCI ACWI Growth Index by 24.3%). This challenging stock selection was most evident in emerging markets, where our bias to Value is most pronounced. The Fund’s exposure to alternative strategies detracted from relative performance, as they did not manage to keep up with the return generated by the Fund’s benchmark. The underweighting to fixed income was additive to performance as the asset class did relatively less well, and this was complemented by good performance within fixed income.

The table incorporates aggregate indirect country exposure associated with investments in the underlying funds. The table excludes short-term investments. The table includes exposure through the use of certain derivative financial instruments and excludes exposure through certain currency linked derivatives such as forward currency contracts and currency options. The table is based on duration adjusted net exposures (both investments and derivatives), taking into account the market value of securities and the notional amounts of swaps and other derivative financial instruments. Duration is based on GMO’s models. The greater the duration of a bond, the greater its contribution to the concentration percentage. Credit default swap exposures are factored into the duration adjusted exposure using the reference security and applying the same methodology to that security. The table is not normalized, thus, due to the exclusions listed above and negative exposures, which may be attributable to derivatives or short sales, if any, the table may not total to 100%.

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Asset Allocation team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO Global Developed Equity Allocation Fund returned +28.41% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +29.34% for the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI World Index.

The Fund’s underweight to the U.S. market and overweight to developed ex-U.S. markets detracted from performance relative to the benchmark, while the overweight to emerging markets was helpful. A bias to a “Value” style proved detrimental to performance as 2020 was the worst year on record for the performance of “Value” versus “Growth” (for the 12 months under consideration, the MSCI All Country World Index (“ACWI”) Value Index underperformed the MSCI ACWI Growth Index by 24.3%). This challenging stock selection was most evident in emerging markets, where our bias to Value is most pronounced. Stock selection was strong in the U.S., helped by an explicit allocation to small cap value stocks which performed very well, along with an allocation to the Cyclical Focus Strategy (which is predominantly U.S.) that rallied extremely strongly as COVID-19 related worries started to recede given the successful vaccine developments.

Allocations among asset classes are made by the Asset Allocation team and specific security selection is primarily handled by other GMO investment teams in collaboration with the Asset Allocation team.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Although GMO does not manage the Fund to, or control the Fund’s risk relative to, any securities index or securities benchmark, a discussion of the Fund’s performance relative to the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) is included for comparative purposes only.

GMO Implementation Fund returned +1.95% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +1.59% for the CPI.

Although it was a reasonable 12 months from an absolute performance perspective, relative to burgeoning equity markets it was distinctly lackluster. In particular, we put broad market hedges in place to remove a significant proportion of the effective exposure to equities in May 2020 as we believed that valuations were excessive, and risk was elevated due to COVID-19. This decision proved highly detrimental to performance as equities continued their strong run. Within equities, a bias to a “Value” style also proved detrimental to performance as 2020 was the worst year on record for the performance of “Value” versus “Growth” (for the 12 months under consideration, the MSCI All Country World Index (“ACWI”) Value Index underperformed the MSCI ACWI Growth Index by 24.3%). Fixed Income exposure was additive to performance, driven by an excellent return from our High Yield/Distressed Debt positions. The equity long/short and alternative strategies also enjoyed solid positive returns, but simply could not keep up with the rampant equity markets.

The table is based on duration adjusted net exposures (both investments and derivatives), taking into account the market value of securities and the notional amounts of swaps and other derivative financial instruments. Duration is based on GMO’s models. The greater the duration of a bond, the greater its contribution to the concentration percentage. Credit default swap exposures are factored into the duration adjusted exposure using the reference security and applying the same methodology to that security. The table is not normalized, thus, due to the exclusions listed above and negative exposures, which may be attributable to derivatives or short sales, if any, the table may not total to 100%.

‡	“Other Developed” is comprised of developed countries that each represent between (1.0)% and 1.0% of Total Net Assets.

†	“Other Emerging” is comprised of emerging countries that each represent between (1.0)% and 1.0% of Total Net Assets.

§	“Euro Region” is comprised of derivative financial instruments attributed to the Eurozone and not a particular country.

^	Rounds to 0.0%.

GMO International Developed Equity Allocation Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Asset Allocation team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO International Developed Equity Allocation Fund returned +22.02% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +22.46% for the Fund’s benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index.

The Fund’s decision to hold a broadly 10% position in emerging markets added to performance relative to the benchmark as the MSCI Emerging Markets Index returned 36.1%. A bias to a “Value” style proved detrimental to performance as 2020 was the worst year on record for the performance of “Value” versus “Growth” (for the 12 months under consideration, the MSCI All Country World Index (“ACWI”) Value Index underperformed the MSCI ACWI Growth Index by 24.3%). This challenging stock selection was most evident in emerging markets, where our bias to Value is most pronounced. Although it is a reasonably modest exposure, stock selection in Australia was a notable success with a return of an incredible 126.2%, driven largely by a significant position in a Metals & Mining company, which was the biggest individual contributor to relative return at the total portfolio level.

GMO SGM Major Markets Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Systematic Global Macro team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO SGM Major Markets Fund returned +5.48% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +0.33% for the FTSE 3-Month Treasury Bill Index.

The Fund added value from equity, currency, and commodity positions while bonds detracted value. The period saw a major rotation in risk appetite due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which saw many assets sell off early in the period, only to have them strongly recover. Over this period equities were the major positive contributor, with the timing on equity beta being the strongest component. Other strong gains came through commodities, notably the positions in oil and silver. As with many risk assets, both had significant falls in the early parts of the year, only to strongly recover during the remaining half of the period. Additionally, the Fund’s position of long euro/short U.S. dollar added significantly. Towards the end of the period, the U.S. dollar dropped significantly, with the market showing concerns around the significant levels of increase in U.S. debt and money supply.

Bonds were the major detractor over the course of the fiscal year. The portfolio had a net long position in bonds at the end of the period. The turn of the year saw a rise in inflation concerns, which in turn saw a rapid sell off in global bonds.

GMO Strategic Opportunities Allocation Fund

(A Series of GMO Trust)

Portfolio Management

Day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio is the responsibility of the Asset Allocation team at Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC.

Management Discussion and Analysis of Fund Performance

Class III shares of GMO Strategic Opportunities Allocation Fund returned +18.66% (net) for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, as compared with +22.30% for the GMO Strategic Opportunities Allocation Index (75% MSCI World Index (MSCI Standard Index Series) and 25% Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index).

The Fund’s equity weight was not that different from the benchmark, and as a result had minimal effect on relative performance. Within developed equities, the bias away from the decently performing U.S. market towards markets outside the U.S., which fared less well, was detrimental to performance relative to the benchmark. A bias to a “Value” style proved detrimental to performance as 2020 was the worst year on record for the performance of “Value” versus “Growth” (for the 12 months under consideration, the MSCI All Country World Index (“ACWI”) Value Index underperformed the MSCI ACWI Growth Index by 24.3%). This challenging stock selection was most evident in emerging markets, where our bias to Value is most pronounced. The underweighting to fixed income was additive to performance as the asset class did relatively less well, and this was complemented by good performance within fixed income. The Fund’s exposure to alternative strategies detracted from relative performance, as they did not manage to keep up with the return generated by the Fund’s benchmark.

Comparison of Change in Value of a $5,000,000 Investment in

GMO Strategic Opportunities Allocation Fund Class III Shares, the GMO Strategic Opportunities Allocation Index*, the MSCI World Index and the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index

As of February 28, 2021

LOGO

The GMO Strategic Opportunities Allocation Index is a composite benchmark computed by GMO and comprised of 75% MSCI World Index and 25% Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index.

MSCI data may not be reproduced or used for any other purpose. MSCI provides no warranties, has not prepared or approved this report, and has no liability hereunder.

For Class III the gross expense ratio of 0.55% is equal to the Fund’s Total Annual Operating Expenses set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus dated June 30, 2020. For the Class listed above, the net expense ratio of 0.52% reflects the reduction of expenses from fee reimbursements. The fee reimbursements will continue until at least June 30, 2021. Elimination of this reimbursement will result in higher fees and lower performance.

The table incorporates aggregate indirect country exposure associated with investments in the underlying funds. The table excludes short-term investments. The table includes exposure through the use of certain derivative financial instruments and excludes exposure through certain currency linked derivatives such as forward currency contracts and currency options. The table is based on duration adjusted net exposures (both investments and derivatives), taking into account the market value of securities and the notional amounts of swaps and other derivative financial instruments. Duration is based on GMO’s models. The greater the duration of a bond, the greater its contribution to the concentration percentage. Credit default swap exposures are factored into the duration-adjusted exposure using the reference security and applying the same methodology to that security. The tables are not normalized, thus, due to the exclusions listed above and negative exposures, which may be attributable to derivatives or short sales, if any, the tables may not total to 100%.

†	“Other Emerging” is comprised of emerging countries that each represent between (1.0)% and 1.0% of Total Net Assets.

‡	“Other Developed” is comprised of developed countries that each represent between (1.0)% and 1.0% of Total Net Assets.

#	“Euro Region” is comprised of derivative financial instruments attributed to the Eurozone and not a particular country.

1.	Organization

Each of Alternative Allocation Fund, Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund, Benchmark-Free Fund, Global Asset Allocation Fund, Global Developed Equity Allocation Fund, Global Equity Allocation Fund, Implementation Fund, International Developed Equity Allocation Fund, International Equity Allocation Fund, SGM Major Markets Fund and Strategic Opportunities Allocation Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) is a series of GMO Trust (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust was established as a Massachusetts business trust under the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts on June 24, 1985. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees of the Trust (“Trustees”) to create an unlimited number of series of shares (Funds) and to subdivide Funds into classes. The Funds are advised and managed by Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC (“GMO”).

The Funds may invest in GMO U.S. Treasury Fund and in money market funds unaffiliated with GMO.

Many of the Funds may invest primarily in other GMO Funds and Alternative Allocation Fund, Implementation Fund and SGM Major Markets Fund may also invest in GMO Alternative Allocation SPC Ltd., GMO Implementation SPC Ltd. and GMO Alternative Asset SPC Ltd. (each a “wholly-owned subsidiary”), respectively. These GMO Funds and wholly-owned subsidiaries are referenced herein as “underlying funds”. As a result, the Funds are exposed to all of the risks of the underlying funds in which they invest. Several of the underlying funds themselves invest a substantial portion of their assets in other GMO Funds. The financial statements of the underlying funds should be read in conjunction with the Funds’ financial statements. The financial statements are available without charge on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) website at www.sec.gov or on GMO’s website at www.gmo.com.

Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation: Alternative Allocation Fund, Implementation Fund and SGM Major Markets Fund

Alternative Allocation Fund, Implementation Fund and SGM Major Markets Fund include the accounts of their wholly-owned subsidiaries and the accompanying financial statements have been consolidated for those accounts. The consolidated financial statements include all of the assets and liabilities of each wholly-owned subsidiary. All interfund accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Portfolio valuation

Shares of the underlying funds and other open-end registered investment companies are valued at their most recent net asset value. Direct investments held by the Funds and underlying funds are valued as follows: Exchange-traded securities (other than exchange-traded options) for which market quotations are readily available are valued at (i) the last sale price or (ii) official closing price or (iii) most recent quoted price published by the exchange (if no reported last sale or official closing price) or (iv) the quoted price provided by a pricing source (in the event GMO deems the private market to be a more reliable indicator of market value than the exchange). Exchange-traded options are valued at the last sale price, provided that price is between the closing bid and ask prices. If the last sale price is not within that range, then they will be valued at the closing bid price for long positions and the closing ask price for short positions. Cleared derivatives are valued using the price quoted (which may be based on a model) by the relevant clearing house. If an updated quote for a cleared derivative is not available when a Fund calculates its net asset value, the derivative will generally be valued using an industry standard model, which may differ from the model used by the relevant clearing house. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives are generally valued at the price determined by an industry standard model. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available are generally valued at the most recent quoted price.

In the case of derivatives, prices determined by a model may reflect an estimate of the average of bid and ask prices, regardless of whether a Fund has a long position or a short position.

The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.

Level 2 – Valuations determined using other significant direct or indirect observable inputs.

The types of assets and liabilities categorized in Level 2 generally include certain U.S. government agency securities, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, certain sovereign debt obligations, and corporate bonds valued using vendor prices or broker quotes; cleared derivatives and certain OTC derivatives such as swaps, options, swaptions, and forward currency contracts valued using industry standard models; certain restricted securities valued at the most recent available market or quoted price; certain securities that are valued at the local price; certain debt obligations, such as collateralized loan obligations, that have yet to begin trading that are valued at cost; and certain foreign equity securities that are adjusted based on inputs from an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees, including the value of equity securities that underlie futures, options and other derivatives (to the extent the market for such instruments closes prior to the close of the NYSE) to reflect estimated valuation changes through the NYSE close.

Level 3 – Valuations based primarily on inputs that are unobservable and significant.

The types of assets and liabilities categorized in Level 3 generally include, but are not limited to, certain debt securities (such as asset-backed, mortgage-backed, loans and sovereign debt) and derivatives even though they may be valued using broker quotes; certain debt securities and derivatives adjusted by a specified discount for liquidity or other considerations; securities whose trading has been suspended or that have been de-listed from their current primary trading exchange valued at the most recent available market or quoted price; securities in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation valued at the most recent available market or quoted price; potential litigation recoveries and interests related to bankruptcy proceedings; certain equity securities valued based on the last traded exchange price adjusted for the movement in a relevant index; certain securities that are valued using a price from a comparable security related to the same issuer; and certain recently acquired equity securities that have yet to begin trading that are valued at cost.

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

Loan assignments and participations

Certain Funds may invest in direct debt instruments, which are interests in amounts owed to lenders or lending syndicates, to suppliers of goods or services, or to other parties by corporate, governmental or other borrower. Such “loans” may include bank loans, promissory notes, and loan participations, or in the case of suppliers of goods or services, trade claims or other receivables. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution that acts as agent for all holders. The agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. Unless, under the terms of the loan or other indebtedness a Fund has direct recourse against the borrower, it may have to rely on the agent to enforce its rights against the borrower. When investing in a loan participation, (i) a Fund has the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the party from whom the Fund has purchased the participation and only upon receipt by that party of payments from the borrower and (ii) a Fund generally has no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement or to vote on matters arising under the loan agreement. Thus, a Fund may be subject to credit risk both of the party from whom it purchased the loan participation and the borrower and that Fund may have minimal control over the terms of any loan modification. Loan assignments and participations outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Rights and warrants

Repurchase agreements

The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements with banks and brokers. Under a repurchase agreement a Fund acquires a security for a relatively short period for cash and obtains a simultaneous commitment from the seller to repurchase the security at an agreed upon price and date. The Fund, through its custodian, takes possession of securities it acquired under the repurchase agreement. The value of the securities acquired may be less than the amount owed to the Fund by the seller. If the seller in a repurchase agreement transaction defaults or enters into insolvency proceedings and the value of the securities subject to the repurchase agreement is insufficient, the Fund’s recovery of cash from the seller may be delayed and, even if the Fund is able to dispose of the securities, the Fund may incur a loss equal to the difference between the cash it paid and the value of the securities. Repurchase agreements outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Reverse repurchase agreements

The Funds may enter into reverse repurchase agreements with banks and brokers to enhance return. Under a reverse repurchase agreement a Fund sells portfolio assets subject to an agreement by that Fund to repurchase the same assets at an agreed upon price and date. A Fund can use the proceeds received from entering into a reverse repurchase agreement to make additional investments, which generally causes the Fund’s portfolio to behave as if it were leveraged. If the buyer in a reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund may be unable to recover the securities it sold and as a result may realize a loss on the transaction if the securities it sold are worth more than the purchase price it originally received from the buyer. Reverse repurchase agreements outstanding at the end of the period, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments

Inflation-indexed bonds

Certain Funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is adjusted periodically according to the rate of inflation/deflation. Two structures are common. The U.S. Treasury and some other issuers use a structure that accrues inflation/deflation into the principal value of the bond. Many other issuers adjust the coupon accruals for inflation related changes.



162

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds. Coupon payments received by a Fund from inflation-indexed bonds are generally included in the Fund’s gross income for the period in which they accrue. In addition, any increase/decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond is generally included in the Fund’s gross income even though principal is not paid until maturity. Inflation-indexed bonds outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Securities lending

At February 28, 2021, securities on loan at value and collateral from securities on loan are listed below:



Fund Name	Value of securities on loan ($)		Cash collateral ($)		Non-cash collateral ($)*		Total collateral ($)
Benchmark-Free Fund		34,172,201		15,591,824		21,485,593		37,077,417
Consolidated Implementation Fund		90,419,386		35,190,901		63,116,695		98,307,596

Non-cash collateral is comprised of U.S. Treasuries and Agencies. The Fund cannot repledge non-cash collateral; therefore, they are excluded from the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Information regarding the value of the securities loaned and the value of cash collateral at year end is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Short sales

Certain Funds may enter into short sales transactions. A short sale is a transaction in which a Fund sells securities it may not own in anticipation of a decline in the fair market value of the securities. Securities sold in short sale transactions and the dividend and/or interest payable on such securities, if any, are reflected as a liability in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. A Fund is obligated to deliver securities at the trade price at the time the short position is closed. Possible losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested. Some Funds may also loan their portfolio securities through an enhanced custody program offered by the Funds’ custodian to facilitate the borrowing of securities for the Funds’ short sales (see Securities lending above). Short sales outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Municipal obligations

Municipal obligations are issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the United States and their political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and the District of Columbia to obtain funds for various public purposes. Municipal notes are generally used to provide for short-term capital needs, such as to finance working capital needs of municipalities or to provide various interim or construction financing, and generally have maturities of one year or less. Municipal bonds, which meet longer-term capital needs and generally have maturities of more than one year when issued, have two principal classifications: “general obligation” bonds and “revenue” bonds. Issuers of general obligation bonds include states, counties, cities, towns and regional districts. The basic security behind general obligation bonds is the issuer’s pledge of its full faith, credit, and taxing power for the payment of principal and interest. Revenue bonds have been issued to fund a wide variety of capital projects. The principal security for a revenue bond is generally the net revenues derived from a particular facility or group of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds of a special excise or other specific revenue source. Although the principal security behind these bonds varies widely, many



				163

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

provide additional security in the form of a debt service reserve fund whose monies also may be used to make principal and interest payments on the issuer’s obligations. Municipal obligations at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Trade claims

Certain Funds may purchase trade claims against companies, including companies in bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings. Trade claims generally include claims of suppliers for goods delivered and not paid, claims for unpaid services rendered, claims for contract rejection damages and claims related to litigation. Trade claims are illiquid instruments which generally do not pay interest and there can be no guarantee that the debtor will ever be able to satisfy the obligation on the trade claim. Such claims are typically unsecured and may be subordinated to other unsecured obligations of a debtor, and generally are subject to defenses of the debtor with respect to the underlying transaction giving rise to the trade claim. Trade claims outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

Taxes and distributions

Alternative Allocation SPC Ltd., Alternative Asset SPC Ltd. and Implementation SPC Ltd. are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Alternative Allocation Fund, SGM Major Markets Fund and Implementation Fund, respectively, and each has elected to be treated as a (non-U.S.) corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The policy of each Fund is to declare and pay dividends of its net investment income, if any, at least annually, although the Funds are permitted to, and will from time to time, declare and pay dividends of net investment income, if any, more frequently. Each Fund also intends to distribute net realized short-term and long-term capital gains, if any, at least annually. In addition, each Fund may, from time to time at their discretion, make unscheduled distributions in advance of large redemptions by shareholders or as otherwise deemed appropriate by a Fund. Typically, all distributions are reinvested in additional shares of each Fund, at net asset value, unless GMO or its agents receive and process a shareholder election to receive cash distributions. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by each Fund on the ex-dividend date.

Taxes on foreign interest and dividend income are generally withheld in accordance with the applicable country’s tax treaty with the United States. The foreign withholding rates applicable to a Fund’s investments in certain jurisdictions may be higher if a significant portion of the Fund is held by non-U.S. shareholders and/or if certain investments are made by a Fund’s wholly-owned subsidiary. Certain Funds have previously filed for and/or may file for additional tax refunds with respect to certain taxes withheld by certain countries. Generally, the amount of such refunds that a Fund reasonably determines are collectible and free from significant contingencies are reflected in a Fund’s net asset value and are reflected as Dividends from unaffiliated issuers in the Statements of Operations. In certain circumstances, a Fund’s receipt of such refunds may cause the Fund and/or its shareholders to be liable for U.S. federal income taxes, interest charges and related fees.

have filed and the tax positions they have adopted. The Funds’ U.S. federal income tax returns are generally subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years after they are filed. State, local and/or non-U.S. tax returns and/or other filings may be subject to examination for different periods, depending upon the tax rules of each applicable jurisdiction. As of February 28, 2021, each Fund has determined that no tax liability is required in its financial statements related to uncertain tax positions for any tax years which are subject to examination.

Security transactions and related investment income

Expenses and class allocations

Most of the expenses of the Trust are directly attributable to an individual Fund. Generally, common expenses are allocated among the Funds based on, among other things, the nature and type of expense and the relative size of the Funds. Investment income, common expenses, purchase premiums and redemption fees, if any, and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated among the classes of shares of the Funds, if applicable, based on the relative net assets of each class. Shareholder service fees and supplemental support fees, if any, which are directly attributable to a class of shares, are charged to that class’s operations. In addition, the Funds may incur fees and expenses indirectly as a shareholder in the underlying funds. Because the underlying funds have different expense and fee levels and the Funds may own different proportions of the underlying funds at different times, the amount of fees and expenses indirectly incurred by a Fund will vary (see Note 5).

Custodian, Fund Accounting Agent and Transfer Agent

Purchases and redemptions of Fund shares

Purchase premiums and redemption fees (if applicable) are paid to and retained by a Fund to help offset estimated portfolio transaction costs and other related costs (e.g., bid to ask spreads, stamp duties, and transfer fees) incurred by the Fund (directly or indirectly through investments in underlying funds or a wholly-owned subsidiary) as a result of an investor’s purchase or redemption by allocating estimated transaction costs to the purchasing or redeeming shareholder. Such fees are recorded as a component of the Funds’ net share transactions. A Fund may impose a new purchase premium and redemption fee or modify an existing fee at any time.

GMO may consider known cash flows out of or into underlying funds when placing orders for the cash purchases or redemptions of underlying fund shares by accounts over which it has investment discretion, including the Funds and other pooled investment vehicles. Consequently, participants in those vehicles will tend to benefit more than other Fund shareholders from the waivers of purchase premiums and redemption fees that may occur when purchases and redemptions occur on the same day.

Each Fund that invests in other GMO Funds, other investment companies or in a wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively, “Underlying Funds”) is exposed to the risks to which the Underlying Funds in which it invests are exposed, as well as the risk that the Underlying Funds will not perform as expected. Therefore, unless otherwise noted, the selected risks summarized below include both direct and



170

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

indirect risks, and references in this section to investments made by a Fund include those made both directly by the Fund and indirectly by the Fund through Underlying Funds.

An investment in a Fund is not a bank deposit and, therefore, is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

The Funds also are subject to counterparty risk because they execute their securities transactions through brokers and dealers. If a broker or dealer fails to meet its contractual obligations, goes bankrupt, or otherwise experiences a business interruption, the Funds could miss investment opportunities or be unable to dispose of investments they would prefer to sell, resulting in losses for the Funds. Counterparty risk with respect to derivatives has been and will continue to be affected by new rules and regulations relating to the derivatives market. As described under “Derivatives and Short Sales Risk,” some derivatives transactions are required to be centrally cleared, and a party to a cleared derivatives transaction is subject to the credit risk of the clearing house and the clearing member through which it holds its cleared position. Credit risk of market participants with respect to derivatives that are centrally cleared is concentrated in a few clearing houses, and it is not clear how an insolvency proceeding of a clearing house would be conducted and what impact an insolvency of a clearing house would have on the financial system. Also, in the event of a counterparty’s (or its affiliate’s) insolvency, the possibility exists that the Funds’ ability to exercise remedies, such as the termination of transactions,

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

netting of obligations or realization on collateral, could be stayed or eliminated under special resolution regimes adopted in the United States, the European Union and various other jurisdictions. Such regimes provide governmental authorities broad authority to intervene when a financial institution is experiencing financial difficulty. In particular, in the European Union, governmental authorities could reduce, eliminate, or convert to equity the liabilities to the Funds of a counterparty experiencing financial difficulties (sometimes referred to as a “bail in”).

adverse credit event or change in the perceived creditworthiness of its issuer could cause its market price to decline much more than its effective duration would suggest.

GMO Trust Funds

a Fund to pursue its investment strategy, and any increase in margin held by a clearing member could expose a Fund to greater credit risk to its clearing member. Also, a Fund is subject to risk if it enters into a derivatives transaction that is required to be cleared (or that GMO expects to be cleared) and no clearing member is willing or able to clear the transaction on the Fund’s behalf. In those cases, the position might have to be terminated, and the Fund could lose some or all of the benefit of the position, including loss of an increase in the value of the position and loss of hedging protection. In addition, the documentation governing the relationship between the Funds and clearing members generally is less favorable to the Funds than the documentation for typical bilateral derivatives. For example, documentation relating to cleared derivatives generally includes a one-way indemnity by the Funds in favor of the clearing member for losses the clearing member incurs as the Funds’ clearing member. Also, such documentation typically does not provide the Funds any remedies if the clearing member defaults or becomes insolvent. While futures contracts entail similar risks, the risks are likely to be more pronounced for cleared derivatives due to their more limited liquidity and market history.

Options. Some Funds are permitted to write options. The market price of an option is affected by many factors, including changes in the market prices or dividend rates of underlying securities (or in the case of indices, the securities in such indices); the time remaining before expiration; changes in interest rates or exchange rates; and changes in the actual or perceived volatility of the relevant stock market and underlying securities. The market price of an option also may be adversely affected if the market for the



				175

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

option becomes less liquid. In addition, since an American-style option allows the holder to exercise its rights at any time before the option’s expiration, the writer of an American-style option has no control over when it will be required to fulfill its obligations as a writer of the option. (The writer of a European-style option is not subject to this risk because the holder may only exercise the option on its expiration date). If a Fund writes a call option and does not hold the underlying security or instrument, the Fund’s potential loss is theoretically unlimited.

• FUND OF FUNDS RISK. A Fund that invests in Underlying Funds (including underlying GMO Funds or its wholly-owned subsidiary) is exposed to the risk that the Underlying Funds or wholly-owned subsidiary will not perform as expected. A Fund also is indirectly exposed to all of the risks to which the Underlying Funds or its wholly-owned subsidiary are exposed.



176

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

Because, absent reimbursement, a Fund bears the fees and expenses of an Underlying Fund (including purchase premiums and redemption fees, if any) and the expenses of a wholly-owned subsidiary of an underlying fund, the Fund will incur additional expenses when investing in an Underlying Fund or wholly-owned subsidiary. In addition, total Fund expenses will increase if a Fund makes a new or further investment in Underlying Funds with higher fees or expenses than the average fees and expenses of the Underlying Funds then in the Fund’s portfolio.

Because some underlying GMO Funds invest a substantial portion of their assets in other GMO Funds (pursuant to an exemptive order obtained from the SEC), the Asset Allocation Funds have more tiers of investments than funds in many other mutual fund groups and therefore are subject to greater fund of funds risk. In addition, to the extent a Fund invests in shares of underlying GMO Funds, it is indirectly subject to Large Shareholder Risk when an underlying GMO Fund has large shareholders (e.g., other GMO Funds). See “Large Shareholder Risk.”

A Fund’s investments in one or more Underlying Funds or a wholly-owned subsidiary could affect the amount, timing and character of its distributions and could cause the Fund to recognize taxable income in excess of the cash generated by such investments, requiring the Fund in turn to liquidate investments at disadvantageous times to generate cash needed to make required distributions.

hold or control in a particular futures contract. In addition, an exchange may impose trading limits on the number of contracts a person may trade on a particular day. An exchange may order the liquidation of positions found to be in violation of these limits, and it may impose sanctions or restrictions. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act requires the CFTC to establish speculative position limits on listed futures and economically equivalent OTC derivatives, and those limits may adversely affect the market liquidity of those futures and derivatives. As a result of such limits, positions held by other GMO clients or by GMO or its affiliates could prevent GMO from taking positions on behalf of a Fund in a particular futures contract or OTC derivative.



178

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

decisions by GMO may result in substantial redemptions from (or investments in) those Funds, adversely affecting the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is required to sell investments when it would not have otherwise done so. Redemptions of a large number of shares also may increase transaction costs or, by necessitating a sale of portfolio securities, have adverse tax consequences for Fund shareholders. Further, from time to time a Fund may trade in anticipation of a purchase or redemption order that ultimately is not received or differs in size from the actual order, leading to temporary underexposure or overexposure to the Fund’s intended investment program. In addition, redemptions and purchases of shares by a large shareholder or group of shareholders could limit the use of any capital losses (including capital loss carryforwards) to offset realized capital gains (if any) and other losses that would otherwise reduce distributable net investment income. In addition, large shareholders may limit or prevent a Fund’s use of equalization for U.S. federal tax purposes.

To the extent a Fund invests in other GMO Funds subject to large shareholder risk, the Fund is indirectly subject to this risk.

provider. For example, trading delays or errors could prevent a Fund from benefiting from investment gains or avoiding losses. In addition, a service provider may be unable to provide a net asset value for a Fund or share class on a timely basis. GMO is not contractually liable to the Funds for losses associated with operational risk absent its willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of its contractual obligations to provide services to the Funds. Other Fund service providers also have contractual limitations on their liability to the Funds for losses resulting from their errors.

the United Kingdom’s or another country’s exit from the European Union also could threaten the stability of the Euro and could negatively affect the financial markets of other countries in the European region and beyond, which may include companies or assets held or considered for prospective investment by GMO.

• MARKET RISK. All of the Funds are subject to market risk, which is the risk that the market price of their holdings will decline. Market risks include:



				181

GMO Trust Funds

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)

February 28, 2021

As described under “Market Risk — Fixed Income,” the market price of asset-backed securities, like that of other fixed income investments with complex structures, can decline for a variety of reasons, including market uncertainty about their credit quality and the reliability of their payment streams. Payment of interest on asset-backed securities and repayment of principal largely depend on the cash flow generated by the assets backing the securities, as well as the deal structure (e.g., the amount of underlying assets or other support available to produce the cash flows necessary to service interest and make principal payments), the quality of the underlying assets, the level of credit support and the credit quality of the credit-support provider, if any, and the performance of other service providers with access to the payment stream. A problem in any of these factors can lead to a reduction in the payment stream GMO expected a Fund to receive when the Fund purchased the asset-backed security. Principal repayments of asset-backed securities are at risk if obligors of the underlying obligations default and the value of the defaulted obligations exceeds whatever credit support the securities have. Asset-backed securities backed by sub-prime mortgage loans, in particular, expose a Fund to potentially greater declines in value due to defaults because sub-prime mortgage loans are typically made to less creditworthy borrowers and thus have a higher risk of default than conventional mortgage loans. Issuers of asset-backed securities also are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors. As of the date of this report, many asset-backed securities owned by the Funds are rated below investment grade. See “Credit Risk” for more information about credit risk.

The existence of insurance on an asset-backed security does not guarantee that the principal and interest will be paid because the insurer could default on its obligations.

Fixed income securities denominated in foreign currencies also are subject to currency risk. See “Currency Risk.”

4.	Derivative financial instruments

During the year ended February 28, 2021, only Alternative Allocation Fund, Benchmark-Free Fund, Global Asset Allocation Fund, Implementation Fund, SGM Major Markets Fund, and Strategic Opportunities Allocation Fund held derivative financial instruments directly. For a listing of derivative financial instruments, if any, held by the underlying funds, please refer to the underlying funds’ Schedule of Investments. The derivative information provided below only pertains to direct investments made by Alternative Allocation Fund, Benchmark-Free Fund, Implementation Fund, SGM Major Markets Fund and Strategic Opportunities Allocation Fund (or their respective wholly-owned subsidiary, if any).

Derivatives are financial contracts whose value depends on, or is derived from, the value of underlying assets, reference rates, or indices, that are used to increase, decrease or adjust elements of the investment exposures of a Fund’s portfolio. Derivatives may relate to securities, interest rates, currencies, currency exchange rates, inflation rates, commodities and indices, and include foreign currency contracts, swap contracts, reverse repurchase agreements, and other exchange-traded and OTC contracts.

Consolidated Alternative Allocation Fund may use derivatives in some or all of the ways described below.

Use of Derivatives by Benchmark-Free Fund, Global Asset Allocation Fund, Consolidated Implementation Fund and Strategic Opportunities Allocation Fund

The Funds may use derivatives to gain long or short investment exposure to securities, commodities or other assets. For example, a Fund may use derivatives instead of investing directly in equity securities, including using equity derivatives to maintain equity exposure when it holds cash by “equitizing” its cash balances using futures contracts or other types of derivatives. The Funds also may use exchange-traded futures and forward foreign exchange contracts to gain exposure to a range of global equity, bond, currency, and commodity markets and may use currency derivatives (including forward currency contracts, futures contracts, swap contracts and options) to gain exposure to a given currency.

The Funds may use derivatives such as futures, options, and swap contracts, in an attempt to reduce their investment exposures (which may result in a reduction below zero). A Fund also may use currency derivatives in an attempt to reduce (which may result in a reduction below zero) some aspect of the currency exposure in its portfolio. For these purposes, the Funds may use an instrument denominated in a different currency that GMO believes is highly correlated with the relevant currency. Implementation Fund uses exchange-traded futures and forward contracts as an integral part of its investment program.

The Funds may use derivatives in an attempt to adjust elements of their investment exposures to individual commodities, various securities, sectors, markets, indices and currencies without actually having to sell existing investments or make new direct investments. For example, if a Fund holds a large proportion of a certain type of security or commodity and GMO believes that another security or commodity will outperform such security or commodity, the Fund might use a short futures contract on an appropriate index(to synthetically “sell” a portion of the Fund’s portfolio) in combination with a long futures contract on another index (to synthetically “buy” exposure to that index). Long and short swap contracts and contracts for differences also may be used for these purposes. Derivatives used to effect synthetic sales and purchases will generally be unwound as actual portfolio securities are sold and purchased. In adjusting investment exposures, each Fund also may use currency derivatives, seeking currency exposure that is different (in some cases, significantly different) from the currency exposure represented by its portfolio. Each Fund’s foreign currency exposure may differ significantly from the currency exposure represented by its investments.

The Funds may use derivatives to effect transactions intended as substitutes for securities lending.

Each of the Funds is not limited in its use of derivatives or in the total notional value of its derivative positions. As a result of their derivative positions, the Funds may have gross investment exposures in excess of their net assets (i.e. the Funds may be leveraged) and therefore are subject to heightened risk of loss. Each Fund’s performance can depend substantially, if not primarily, on the performance of assets or indices underlying its derivatives even though it does not own those assets or indices.

Use of Derivatives by Consolidated SGM Major Markets Fund

The Fund may use derivatives to gain long and/or short investment exposure to securities, currencies, commodities, or other assets. In particular, the Fund may use exchange traded futures and forward foreign exchange contracts to gain exposure to a range of global equity, bond, currency, and commodity markets. The Fund also may use currency derivatives (including forward currency contracts, futures contracts, swap contracts and options) to gain exposure to a given currency.

GMO Trust Funds

February 28, 2021

The Fund may use derivatives in an attempt to adjust its investment exposures. For example, the Fund may use credit default swaps to take a short position with respect to the likelihood of default by an issuer. The Fund also may use currency derivatives in an attempt to reduce (which may result in a reduction below zero) some aspect of the currency exposure in its portfolio. For these purposes, the Fund may use an instrument denominated in a different currency that GMO believes is highly correlated with the relevant currency.

The Fund may use derivatives, such as futures, options, and swap contracts, in an attempt to adjust elements of its investment exposures to individual commodities, various securities, sectors, markets, indices and currencies without actually having to sell existing investments or make new direct investments. For example, if the Fund holds a large proportion of a certain type of security or commodity and GMO believes that another security or commodity will outperform such security or commodity, the Fund might use a short futures contract on an appropriate index (to synthetically “sell” a portion of the Fund’s portfolio) in combination with a long futures contract on another index (to synthetically “buy” exposure to that index). Long and short swap contracts and contracts for differences also may be used for these purposes. Derivatives used to effect synthetic sales and purchases will generally be unwound as actual portfolio securities are sold and purchased. In addition, GMO may alter the interest rate exposure of debt instruments by employing interest rate swaps. Such a strategy is designed to maintain the Fund’s exposure to the credit of an issuer through the debt instrument but adjust the Fund’s interest rate exposure through the swap. With these swaps, the Fund and its counterparties exchange interest rate exposure, such as fixed versus variable rates and shorter duration versus longer duration exposure. In adjusting its investment exposure, the Fund also may use currency derivatives in an attempt to adjust its currency exposure, seeking currency exposure that is different (in some cases, significantly different) from the currencies in which their equities are traded.

The Fund is not limited in its use of derivatives or in the total notional value of its derivative positions. As a result of its derivative positions, the Fund will typically have gross investment exposures in excess of its net assets (i.e. the Fund will be leveraged) and therefore is subject to heightened risk of loss. The Fund’s performance can depend substantially, if not primarily, on the performance of assets or indices underlying its derivatives even though it does not own those assets or indices.

clearing broker in accordance with the initial margin requirements of the broker or exchange. Futures contracts are generally valued at the settlement price established at the close of business each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded (and if the futures are traded outside the U.S. and the market for such futures is closed prior to the close of the NYSE due to time zone differences, the values will be adjusted, to the extent practicable and available, based on inputs from an independent pricing service approved by the Trustees to reflect estimated valuation changes through the NYSE close). The value of each of the Fund’s futures contracts is marked-to-market daily and an appropriate payable or receivable for the change in value (“variation margin”) is recorded by each Fund. The payable or receivable is settled on the following business day. Gains or losses are recognized but not accounted for as realized until the contracts expire or are closed. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin as recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Under some circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily limits on the amount that the price of a futures contract can vary from the previous day’s settlement price, thereby effectively preventing liquidation of unfavorable positions. Futures contracts expose the Funds to the risk that they may not be able to enter into a closing transaction due to an illiquid market. Futures contracts outstanding at the end of the year, if any, are listed in each applicable Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

contract is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one asset for the return generated by another asset. Some swap contracts are net settled. When entering into a swap contract and during the term of the transaction, a Fund and/or the swap counterparty may post or receive cash or securities as collateral.

Inflation swaps involve the exchange of a floating rate linked to an index for a fixed rate interest payment with respect to a notional amount or principal.

Forward starting dividend swap contracts involve an exchange by the parties of their respective commitments to pay or rights to receive the changes in a dividend index point. A Fund gains exposure by either paying or receiving an amount in respect of an increase or decrease in the change of the relevant dividend index point based on a notional amount. For example, if a Fund took a long position on a dividend index swap, the Fund would receive payments if the relevant index point increased in value and would be obligated to pay if that index point decreased in value.

Future swap contracts involve an exchange by the parties of their respective commitments to pay or rights to receive the changes in an index. The Fund gains exposure by either paying or receiving an amount in respect of an increase or decrease in the change of the index based on a notional amount. For example, if the Fund took a long position on a future swap, the Fund would receive payments if the relevant index increased in value and would be obligated to pay if that index decreased in value.

termination event. Upon the occurrence of such an event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty, the Master Agreements may permit the non-defaulting party to calculate a single net payment to close out applicable transactions. However, there is no guarantee that the terms of a Master Agreement will be enforceable; for example, when bankruptcy or insolvency laws impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset. Additionally, the set-off and netting provisions of a Master Agreement may not extend to the obligations of the counterparty’s affiliates or across varying types of transactions. Because no such event has occurred, the Funds do not presently have a legally enforceable right of set-off and these amounts have not been offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, but have been presented separately in the table below. Termination events may also include a decline in the net assets of a Fund below a certain level over a specified period of time and may entitle a counterparty to elect an early termination of all the transactions under the Master Agreement with that counterparty. Such an election by one or more of the counterparties could have a material adverse impact on a Fund’s operations. An estimate of the aggregate net payment, if any, that may need to be paid by a Fund (or may be received by a Fund) in such an event is represented by the Net Amounts in the tables below. For more information about other uncertainties and risks, see “Investments and other risks” above.

For financial reporting purposes, in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities any cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Funds is reported as Due from broker and any cash collateral received from the counterparty is reported as Due to broker. Any non-cash collateral pledged by the Funds is noted in the Schedules of Investments. The tables below show the potential effect of netting arrangements made available by the Master Agreements on the financial position of the Funds. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities generally show derivative assets and derivative liabilities (regardless of whether they are subject to netting arrangements) on a gross basis, which reflects the full risks and exposures of the Fund prior to netting. See Note 2 for information on repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements and securities loans held by the Funds at February 28, 2021, if any.

5.	Fees and other transactions with affiliates

GMO receives a management fee for the services it provides to certain Funds. Management fees are paid monthly at the annual rate equal to the percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets set forth in the table below:



	Alternative Allocation Fund		Benchmark- Free Allocation Fund		Benchmark- Free Fund		Global Asset Allocation Fund		Global Developed Equity Allocation Fund		Global Equity Allocation Fund		Implementation Fund		International Developed Equity Allocation Fund		International Equity Allocation Fund		SGM Major Markets Fund		Strategic Opportunities Allocation Fund
Management Fee		0.73%		0.65%		—		—		—		—		—		—		—		0.85%		—

In addition, each class of shares of certain Funds pays GMO directly or indirectly a shareholder service or supplemental support fee. Shareholder service fees are paid to GMO for providing client services and reporting, such as performance information, client account information, personal and electronic access to Fund information, access to analysis and explanations of Fund reports, and assistance in maintaining and correcting client-related information. Class MF shares of Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund are subject to a supplemental support fee payable to GMO for providing supplemental support services to Class MF shareholders and their investment advisers. Those supplemental support services include, without limitation, (i) providing and presenting (a) educational and explanatory information about the Fund and its asset allocation strategy as requested or directed by an investor or its investment adviser; (b) similar educational and explanatory information about the strategies of the GMO Funds in which the Fund invests; (c) information for inclusion in the quarterly or other periodic reports of the investor; (ii) responding to information requests relating to oversight functions of the investor’s board of directors in areas including pricing, compliance, and taxation; (iii) providing access to and setting up meetings with GMO’s Chief Investment Strategist and Head of GMO’s Asset Allocation Team and other investment professionals of GMO; (iv) assisting with inquiries from an investor’s investment adviser; and (v) providing such other assistance as may be requested from time to time by an investor or its agent, so long as that assistance is not primarily intended to result in the sale of Fund shares.

Shareholder service and/or supplemental support fees are paid monthly at the annual rate equal to the percentage of each applicable Class’s average daily net assets set forth in the table below:

For certain Funds above, GMO does not charge the Fund a management fee or shareholder service fee, but it receives management and/or shareholder service fees from the underlying funds in which the Fund invests. Because those fees vary from fund to fund, the levels of indirect net expenses set forth below are affected by GMO’s asset allocation decisions.

For each Fund, other than Alternative Allocation Fund, GMO has contractually agreed to reimburse the Fund for its “Specified Operating Expenses” (as defined below).

Subject to the exclusions noted below, “Specified Operating Expenses” means: audit expenses, fund accounting expenses, pricing service expenses, expenses of non-investment related tax services, transfer agency expenses (excluding, in the case of Class I shares, any amounts paid for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to Class I shareholders), expenses of non-investment related legal services provided to the Funds by or at the direction of GMO, organizational and start-up expenses, federal securities law filing expenses, printing expenses, state and federal registration fees and custody expenses. In the case of Benchmark-Free Fund, “Specified Operating Expenses” does not include the Fund’s direct custody expenses attributable to its holdings of emerging market securities.

For Alternative Allocation Fund (the “Fund), GMO has contractually agreed to waive its fees with respect to and/or reimburse the Fund to the extent that the Fund’s total annual fund operating expenses (after applying all other contractual and voluntary expense

limitation arrangements in effect at the time) exceed the following amounts for each class of shares, in each case representing the average daily net assets for the indicated class of shares: 0.99% for Class II shares; 0.92% for Class III shares; 0.875% for Class IV shares; 0.855% for Class V shares; 0.825% for Class VI shares; 0.99% for Class R6 shares; and 0.99% for Class I shares (each, an “Expense Cap”). Fees and expenses of the “non-interested” Trustees and legal counsel and independent compliance consultant to the “non-interested” Trustees, investment-related costs (such as brokerage commissions, interest, and acquired fund fees and expenses), taxes, litigation and indemnification expenses, payments out of assets attributable to Class I shares for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries, judgments, and other extraordinary or non-recurring expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of the Fund’s business, are excluded from the Expense Cap.

For each Fund, other than Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund, that pays GMO a management fee, GMO has contractually agreed to waive or reduce that fee, but not below zero, to the extent necessary to offset the management fees paid to GMO that are directly or indirectly borne by the Fund as a result of the Fund’s direct or indirect investments in other GMO Funds.

For each Fund, other than Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund, that charges a shareholder service fee, GMO has contractually agreed to waive or reduce the shareholder service fee charged to holders of each class of shares of the Fund, but not below zero, to the extent necessary to offset the shareholder service fees directly or indirectly borne by the class of shares of the Fund as a result of the Fund’s direct or indirect investments in other GMO Funds.

For Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund only, the fees payable to GMO under its management contract and servicing and supplemental support agreement are reduced by amounts equal to the management fees and shareholder service fees, respectively, that GMO receives as a result of the Fund’s investment in underlying GMO Funds. In addition, GMO has contractually agreed to reduce the rate of the supplemental support fees charged to the Fund’s Class MF shares to a rate to be charged in any month (starting on the first business day of the month) based on the net assets attributable to Class MF shares as of the last business day of the preceding month based on the following schedule: 0.10% on the first $6 billion of net assets, 0.05% on the next $2 billion, 0.03% on the next $2 billion, and 0.01% thereafter; provided, however, that the effective rate charged at any time will not be reduced to less than 0.06% of Class MF’s average daily net assets. The rate will be calculated before giving effect to any reduction or waiver described above, and any applicable reduction or waiver will serve to further reduce the supplemental support fees paid to GMO. This reduction will continue through at least June 30, 2021, and may not be terminated prior to this date without the action or consent of the Fund’s Board of Trustees.

Sub-Transfer Agent/Recordkeeping Payments

Class II, III, IV, V, VI, MF and R6 shares are not subject to payments to third parties for sub-transfer agent/recordkeeping and other administrative services. GMO may, on a case-by-case basis, make payments for sub-transfer agent, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to shareholders of these classes. Any such payments are made by GMO out of its own resources and are not an additional charge to a Fund or the holders of Class II, III, IV, V, VI, MF or Class R6 shares. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing a financial intermediary to recommend a Fund over another investment.

Class I shares are subject to payments for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to holders of Class I shares through an account maintained by a third-party platform or intermediary. These services are not primarily intended to result in the sale of Fund shares but instead to provide ongoing services with respect to holders of Class I shares through a third-party platform or intermediary. Because payments for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services are paid out of a Fund’s Class I assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will increase the cost of an investment in Class I shares. In addition, GMO may, on a case-by-case basis, make payments for sub-transfer agency, recordkeeping and other administrative services provided by financial intermediaries with respect to shareholders of Class I shares. Any such payments are made by GMO out of its own resources and are not an additional charge to a Fund or the holders of Class I shares. These payments create a conflict of interest by influencing a financial intermediary to recommend a Fund over another investment.

Reorganization

Under a plan of reorganization completed at the close of business on January 22, 2021, GMO Benchmark-Free Allocation Series Fund, GMO Global Asset Allocation Series Fund, GMO International Developed Equity Allocation Series Fund and GMO International Equity Allocation Series Fund (each, a “Selling Fund”) transferred all of their assets and liabilities to GMO Benchmark-Free Allocation Fund, GMO Global Asset Allocation Fund, GMO International Developed Equity Allocation Fund, and GMO International Equity Allocation Fund (each, an “Acquiring Fund”), respectively, in a reorganization that was approved by the shareholders and that was tax-free from a U.S. federal tax perspective. Prior to the reorganization, each Selling Fund invested all or substantially all of its assets in the corresponding Acquiring Fund and thus had the same investment program as the Acquiring Fund. The purpose of the reorganization was to provide exposure to a more efficient portfolio with substantially similar investment strategies.

The following is a summary of net assets and shares outstanding of the Acquiring Funds immediately before and after the reorganization.

As of February 28, 2021, the registrant has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Code of Ethics”). During the year ended February 28, 2021 there were no substantive amendments to a provision of the Code of Ethics nor were there any waivers granted from a provision of the Code of Ethics. A copy of the Code of Ethics is filed with this Form N-CSR under item 12 (a).

Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.

The registrant’s Board of Trustees has determined that the registrant does not have an “audit committee financial expert” (as such term has been defined in Form N-CSR) serving on its audit committee. The registrant’s Board believes that, although none of its members individually meets all required elements of the definition of an “audit committee financial expert”, the members of the registrant’s audit committee collectively possess the knowledge and experience necessary to execute all of the audit committee’s functions, duties and powers.

Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services. *

(a)

AUDIT FEES: The aggregate fees billed to the registrant for professional services rendered by its independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements for 2021 and 2020 were $1,379,851 and $1,564,726, respectively.

(b)

AUDIT-RELATED FEES: The aggregate fees billed to the registrant in 2021 and 2020 for engagements for audit-related services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP that related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds were $107,695 and $37,173, respectively. The aggregate fees billed in 2021 and 2020 to the registrant’s Investment Advisor, and any entity controlling, controlled, or under common control with the Advisor that provides ongoing services to the Funds (each, a “Service Affiliate”) for engagements for audit-related services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP that related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds were $394,551 and $443,735, respectively.

(c)

TAX FEES: The aggregate fees billed to the registrant in 2021 and 2020 for professional services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning, including the preparation of Form 1120 RIC, Form 8613 and review of excise tax distribution calculations, were $517,625 and $505,503, respectively. The aggregate fees billed in 2021 and 2020 to the registrant’s Service Affiliates for engagements for tax services rendered by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP that related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds were $0 and $0, respectively.

(d)

ALL OTHER FEES: No such fees were billed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to the registrant or to the registrant’s Service Affiliates that related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds in 2021 or 2020.

(e)

(1) The Audit Committee has adopted an Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the “Policy”), which sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services to be performed by the independent auditor are to be preapproved. Under the Policy, the Audit Committee pre-approves, on an annual basis, the following services: (1) the engagement, scope and terms of the annual audit; (2) certain audit-related services; (3) certain tax services that the Committee believes would not impair, and are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence; and (4) certain permissible non-audit services that the Committee believes are routine and recurring services and that would not impair, and are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence, subject to certain limitations on the projected fees associated with each service. All other types of services not included on the schedule to the policy, or for which the projected fees exceed those provided in the schedule, require the specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee or the Chairperson of the Committee (if timing necessitates that preapproval is required before the Committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting) if they are to be provided by the independent auditor.

(e)

(2) None.

(f)

Not applicable.

(g)

NON-AUDIT FEES: The aggregate fees billed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP in 2021 and 2020 for non-audit services rendered to the registrant and the registrant’s Service Affiliates were $1,054,871 and $1,021,411, respectively. For the fiscal year ended February 28, 2021, this amount reflects the amounts disclosed above in Item 4(b),(c),(d), plus $35,000 in fees billed to the Funds’ Service Affiliates for non-audit services that did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds. For the fiscal year ended February 29, 2020, this amount reflects the amounts disclosed above in Item 4(b),(c),(d), plus $35,000 in fees billed to the Funds’ Service Affiliates for non-audit services that did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds.

(h)

The registrant’s Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services by the registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm to the registrant’s Investment Advisor, and any entity controlling, controlled, or under common control with the Advisor that provided ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved by the Committee (because such services did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant) was compatible with maintaining the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm.
