For Class A shares, a 1% contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) is only imposed on Class A shares that were purchased at net asset value (NAV) for $1
million or more that are subsequently redeemed within 12 months of purchase. For Class B shares, the CDSC declines from 5% for redemptions within the first year of purchase, to 4% for redemptions within the second year, to 3% for redemptions within
the third and fourth years, to 2% for redemptions within the fifth year, to 1% for redemptions within the sixth year and to 0% for redemptions after the sixth year. For Class C shares, a 1% CDSC applies to redemptions within 12 months of purchase.

With limited exceptions, for Class A, Class B and Class C shares, if your account balance is below $750 at the close of business on September 26, 2014, and on
the Friday prior to the last week of September each year thereafter, the account will be assessed an account fee of $20.

Through July 31, 2014, to the extent that the total annual ordinary fund operating expenses of the Class Y shares exceeds the total annual ordinary fund
operating expenses of the Class A shares, Ivy Funds Distributor, Inc. (IFDI), the Funds distributor, and/or Waddell & Reed Services Company, doing business as WI Services Company (WISC), the Funds transfer agent, have
contractually agreed to reimburse sufficient 12b-1 and/or shareholder servicing fees to ensure that the total annual ordinary fund operating expenses of the Class Y shares do not exceed the total annual ordinary fund operating expenses of the
Class A shares, as calculated at the end of each month. Prior to that date, the expense limitation may not be terminated by IFDI, WISC or the Board of Trustees.

Example
This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the shares of the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.
The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the particular class of shares of the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all your
shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Funds operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these
assumptions, your costs would be:

Portfolio Turnover
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or turns over its portfolio). A higher portfolio
turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Funds
performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Funds portfolio turnover rate was 35% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
Ivy Balanced Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in a mix of stocks, debt securities and short-term instruments, depending on market conditions. Regarding its equity investments,
the Fund invests primarily in medium to large, well-established companies that usually issue dividend-paying securities. The Fund invests a portion of its total assets in common stocks in seeking to provide possible appreciation of capital and some
dividend income. In addition, the Fund invests a portion of its total assets in either debt securities or preferred stocks, or both, in seeking to provide income and relative stability of capital. The Fund ordinarily invests at least 25% of its
total assets in fixed-income securities. The majority of the Funds debt securities are either U.S. government securities or investment-grade corporate bonds, including bonds rated BBB- or higher by Standard & Poors, a division
of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (S&P), or comparably rated by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) or, if unrated, determined by Ivy Investment Management Company (IICO), the Funds investment manager, to
be of comparable quality. The Fund has no limitations on the range of maturities of the debt securities in which it may invest, or on the size of companies in which it may invest.
In selecting equity securities for the Fund, IICO follows a core investing strategy and seeks to invest in companies that it believes possess attractive business economics, are in a strong financial
condition and are selling at attractive valuations, both on a relative and an absolute basis. IICO also considers a companys potential for dividend growth, its growth and profitability opportunities and sustainability, its relative strength in
earnings, its management, improving fundamentals and valuation, its balance sheet, its stock price value, and the condition of the respective industry. In selecting debt securities for the Fund, IICO generally seeks high-quality securities with
minimal credit risk.
Many U.S. companies have diverse operations, with products or services in foreign markets. Therefore, the Fund will have
an indirect exposure to foreign markets through investments in these companies.
Generally, in determining whether to sell an equity security,
IICO uses the same analysis as identified above in order to determine if the equity security is still undervalued or has met its anticipated price. In determining whether to sell a debt security, IICO will consider whether the security continues to
maintain its minimal credit risk. IICO may also sell a security if the security ceases to produce income, to reduce the Funds holding in that security, to take advantage of what it believes are more attractive investment opportunities or to
raise cash.
Principal Investment Risks
As with any mutual fund, the value of the Funds shares will change, and you could lose money on your investment. The Fund is not intended as a complete investment program. A variety of factors can
affect the investment performance of the Fund and prevent it from achieving its objective. These include:
n
|
|
Company Risk
. A company may perform worse
than the overall market due to specific factors, such as adverse changes to its business or investor perceptions about the company.
|
n
|
|
Credit Risk
. An issuer of a fixed-income
obligation may not make payments on the obligation when due or may default on its obligation.
|
n
|
|
Foreign Exposure Risk
. The securities of many
companies may have significant exposure to foreign markets as a result of the companys products or services in those foreign markets. As a result, a companys domicile and/or the markets in which the companys securities trade may
not be fully reflective of its sources of revenue. Such securities would be subject to some of the same risks as an investment in foreign securities, including the risk that political and economic events unique to a country or region will adversely
affect those markets in which the companys products or services are sold.
|
n
|
|
Growth Stock Risk
. Prices of growth stocks
may be more sensitive to changes in current or expected earnings than the prices of other stocks. Growth stocks may not perform as well as value stocks or the stock market in general.
|
n
|
|
Interest Rate Risk
. A rise in interest rates
may cause a decline in the value of the Funds securities, especially bonds with longer maturities. A decline in interest rates may cause the Fund to experience a decline in its income.
|
n
|
|
Large Company Risk
. Large capitalization
companies may go in and out of favor based on market and economic conditions. Large capitalization companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges, such as changes in technology, and also may not be able to attain the high
growth rate of successful smaller companies, especially during extended periods of economic expansion. Although the securities of larger companies may be less volatile than those of companies with smaller market capitalizations, returns on
investments in securities of large capitalization companies could trail the returns on investments in securities of smaller companies.
|
n
|
|
Management Risk
. Fund performance is
primarily dependent on IICOs skill in evaluating and managing the Funds portfolio and the Fund may not perform as well as other similar mutual funds.
|
n
|
|
Market Risk
. Adverse market conditions,
sometimes in response to general economic or industry news, may cause the prices of the Funds holdings to fall as part of a broad market decline. The financial crisis in the U.S. and foreign economies over the past several years, including the
European sovereign debt crisis, has resulted, and may continue to result, in an unusually high degree of volatility in the financial markets, both U.S. and foreign, and in the NAVs of many mutual funds, including to some extent the Fund. Global
economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region may adversely affect issuers in another country or region, which in turn may adversely affect
securities held by the Fund. These circumstances have also decreased liquidity in some markets and may continue to do so. In addition, certain unanticipated events, such as natural disasters, terrorist attacks, war, and other geopolitical events,
can have a dramatic adverse effect on securities held by the Fund.
|
n
|
|
Mid Size Company Risk
. Securities of mid
capitalization companies may be more vulnerable to adverse developments than those of large companies due to such companies limited product lines, limited markets and financial resources and dependence upon a relatively small management group.
Securities of mid capitalization companies may be more volatile and less liquid than the stocks of larger companies, and may be more affected than other types of stocks by the underperformance of a sector or during market downturns.
|
n
|
|
Reinvestment Risk
. A decline in interest
rates may cause issuers to prepay higher-yielding bonds held by the Fund, resulting in the Fund reinvesting in securities with lower yields, which may cause a decline in its income.
|
Performance
The chart and table below provide
some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The chart shows how performance has varied from year to year for Class A shares. The table shows the average annual total returns for each Class of the Fund and also compares the
performance with those of broad-based securities market indexes and a Lipper peer group (a universe of mutual funds with investment objectives similar to that of the Fund). The chart does not reflect any sales charges and, if those sales charges
were included, returns would be less than those shown. For periods prior to December 8, 2003, the performance shown below is the performance of the Class A shares of Advantus Spectrum Fund, which along with its other classes of shares was
reorganized on December 8, 2003 into Class A shares of Ivy Balanced Fund. For that time period, the Fund would have had substantially similar annual returns because the shares would have been invested in a similar portfolio of securities,
but would differ to the extent that the Fund has different expenses. Performance prior to December 8, 2003 has not been restated to reflect the estimated annual operating expenses of the Ivy Balanced Fund. If those expenses were reflected,
performance shown below would differ.
After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual Federal marginal income tax
rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investors tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through
tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts (IRAs), or to shares held by non-taxable entities. After-tax returns are shown only for Class A shares. After-tax returns for other Classes may vary.
Performance results include the effect of expense reduction arrangements for some or all of the periods shown. If those arrangements had not been in
place, the performance results for those periods would have been lower.
The Funds past performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how it will perform
in the future. Current performance may be lower or higher. Please visit
www.ivyfunds.com
or call 800.777.6472 for the Funds updated performance.

Payments to Broker-Dealers and other Financial
Intermediaries
If you purchase the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the Fund and/or IICO
and/or its affiliates may pay the intermediary for the sale of Fund shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or other intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over
another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediarys web site for more information.
