The Portfolio does not pay an advisory fee to Pacific Investment Management Company LLC ("PIMCO") under the Investment Advisory Contract between PIMCO Managed Accounts Trust (the "Trust") and PIMCO (the "Investment Advisory Contract"). However, the Portfolio is an integral part of "wrap-fee" programs, including those sponsored by investment advisers and broker- dealers unaffiliated with the Portfolio or PIMCO. Participants in these programs pay a "wrap" fee to the sponsor of the program. You should read carefully the wrap-fee brochure provided to you by the sponsor or your investment adviser. The brochure is required to include information about the fees charged to you by the sponsor and the fees paid by the sponsor to PIMCO and its affiliates. You pay no additional fees or expenses to purchase shares of the Portfolio.

"Other Expenses" include interest expense of 3.31%. Interest expense is borne by the Portfolio separately from the management fees paid to PIMCO. Excluding interest expense, Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses are 0.00%.
Example.This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in shares of the Portfolio with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in shares of the Portfolio for the time periods indicated, and then hold or redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and the Portfolio's operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, the Example shows what your costs would be based on these assumptions.

Portfolio Turnover
The Portfolio pays transaction costs 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 Portfolio shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in the Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses or in the Example table, can adversely affect the Portfolio's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Portfolio's portfolio turnover rate was 223% of the average value of its portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategies
The Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective by normally investing at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings made for investment purposes) in a portfolio of U.S. and foreign fixed income instruments including (but not limited to): inflation-indexed bonds issued by both U.S. and non-U.S. governments and corporations, including Treasury Inflation Protected Securities ("TIPS"); corporate debt securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers, including convertible securities and corporate commercial paper; obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities; obligations of non-U.S. governments or their subdivisions, agencies and government sponsored enterprises; obligations of international agencies or supranational entities; debt securities issued by states or local governments and their agencies, authorities and other instrumentalities; mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities including collateralized bond obligations ("CBOs"), collateralized loan obligations ("CLOs"), other collateralized debt obligations ("CDOs") and other similarly structured securities; floating and variable rate debt instruments; structured notes, including hybrid or "indexed" securities and event-linked bonds; loan participations and assignments; delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities; bank certificates of deposit, fixed time deposits and bankers' acceptances; repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements; and derivative instruments that have economic characteristics similar to the securities referenced above.
In pursuing its investment objective of real return, the Portfolio ordinarily expects to invest a substantial portion of its assets in inflation-indexed bonds of various maturities issued by U.S. and non-U.S. governments, their agencies or instrumentalities, and corporations. Certain securities issued by U.S. Government-sponsored entities may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. "Real return" equals total return less the estimated cost of inflation, which is typically measured by the change in an official inflation measure. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities that are structured to provide protection against inflation. The value of the bond's principal or the interest income paid on the bond is adjusted to track changes in an official inflation measure. The U.S. Treasury uses the non-seasonally adjusted Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers as the inflation measure. Inflation-indexed bonds issued by a foreign government are generally adjusted to reflect a comparable inflation index, calculated by that government.
PIMCO Managed Accounts Trust | Summary Prospectus
Fixed Income SHares: Series R
The Portfolio invests primarily in investment grade securities, but may invest up to 20% of its assets in high yield securities ("junk bonds") rated B or higher by Moody's Investor Services ("Moody's"), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor's ("S&P") or Fitch Ratings, Inc. ("Fitch") or, if unrated, determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality (except that within such 20% limitation, the Portfolio may invest in mortgage-related securities rated below B). In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. The Portfolio may invest, subject to applicable law, without limit in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, securities denominated in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, and U.S. dollar denominated securities of foreign issuers. The Portfolio may invest without limit in investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the relevant country's local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity ("short-term investment grade sovereign debt"), including short-term investment grade sovereign debt issued by emerging market issuers. The Portfolio may invest up to 20% of its total assets in securities of issuers economically tied to "emerging market" countries other than investments in short-term investment grade sovereign debt issued by emerging market issuers, where as noted above there is no limit.
The Portfolio may invest in instruments of any maturity. The average portfolio duration of the Portfolio is expected to vary and may range anywhere from relatively short (e.g., less than two years) to relatively long (e.g., more than ten years) based on PIMCO's forecast for interest rates.
The Portfolio may invest without limit in derivative instruments, such as options, futures contracts or swap agreements, which may relate to fixed income securities, interest rates, currencies or currency exchange rates, commodities, real estate and other assets, and related indices. Although the Portfolio may invest in derivatives of any kind, it expects to invest in futures contracts, swaps and forward foreign currency contracts and to write (sell) put and call options on securities for hedging, risk management or other purposes, including for the purpose or having the effect of creating leverage. The Portfolio may lend its securities to brokers, dealers and other financial institutions to earn income. The Portfolio may, without limitation, seek to obtain market exposure to the securities in which it primarily invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or by using other investment techniques (such as buy backs or dollar rolls).
The Portfolio will not change its policy to, under normal circumstances, invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in U.S. and foreign fixed income instruments unless the Portfolio provides shareholders with the notice required by Rule 35d-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as it may be amended or interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") from time to time (the "1940 Act").
Principal Risks
It is possible to lose money on an investment in the Portfolio. The principal risks of investing in the Portfolio, which could adversely affect its net asset value, yield and total return, are listed below:
Interest Rate Risk:the risk that fixed income securities will fluctuate in value because of a change in interest rates; a portfolio with a longer average portfolio duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a portfolio with a shorter average portfolio duration
Credit Risk:the risk that the Portfolio could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security, or the counterparty to a derivative contract, or the issuer or guarantor of collateral, is unable or unwilling, or is perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) as unable or unwilling, to meet its financial obligations
Market Risk:the risk that the value of securities owned by the Portfolio may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries
Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk:the risk that investing in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may result in the Portfolio experiencing more rapid and extreme changes in value than a portfolio that invests exclusively in securities of U.S. companies, due to smaller markets, differing reporting, accounting and auditing standards, increased risk of delayed settlement of portfolio transactions or loss of certificates of portfolio securities, and the risk of unfavorable foreign government actions, including nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, currency blockage, political changes, diplomatic developments or the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures. Foreign securities may also be less liquid and more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk:the risks of investing in mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including interest rate risk, extension risk, prepayment risk and credit risk. The Portfolio may invest in any tranche or mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including junior and/or equity tranches (to the extent consistent with the other of the Portfolio's guidelines), which generally carry higher levels of the foregoing risks
Emerging Markets Risk:the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk
Focused Investment Risk:the risk that, to the extent that the Portfolio focuses its investments in a particular sector, it may be susceptible to loss due to adverse developments affecting that sector. Furthermore, the Portfolio may invest a substantial portion of its assets in companies in related sectors that may share common characteristics, are often subject to similar business risks and regulatory burdens, and whose securities may react similarly to market developments, which will subject the Portfolio to greater risk. The Portfolio also will be subject to focused investment risk to the extent that it invests a substantial portion of its assets in a particular issuer, market, asset class, country or geographic region
Derivatives Risk:the risk of investing in derivative instruments (such as forwards, futures, swaps and structured securities) and other similar investments, including leverage, liquidity, interest rate, market, counterparty (including credit), operational, legal and management risks, and valuation complexity. Changes in the value of a derivative or
2  Summary Prospectus | PIMCO Managed Accounts Trust
Summary Prospectus
other similar investment may not correlate perfectly with, and may be more sensitive to market events than, the underlying asset, rate or index, and the Portfolio could lose more than the initial amount invested. Changes in the value of a derivative or other similar instrument may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for the Portfolio. The Portfolio's use of derivatives or other similar investments may result in losses to the Portfolio, a reduction in the Portfolio's returns and/or increased volatility. Non-centrally-cleared over-the-counter ("OTC") derivatives or other similar investments are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for non-centrally-cleared OTC derivatives or other similar investments. The primary credit risk on derivatives or other similar investments that are exchange-traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with the Portfolio's clearing broker or the clearinghouse. Changes in regulation relating to a registered fund's use of derivatives and related instruments could potentially limit or impact the Portfolio's ability to invest in derivatives, limit the Portfolio's ability to employ certain strategies that use derivatives or other similar investments and/or adversely affect the value of derivatives or other similar investments and the Portfolio's performance
Liquidity Risk:the risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that the Portfolio may be unable to sell illiquid investments at an advantageous time or price or achieve its desired level of exposure to a certain sector. Liquidity risk may result from the lack of an active market, reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities, and may be magnified in a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity
Management Risk:the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by PIMCO will not produce the desired results and that actual or potential conflicts of interest, legislative, regulatory, or tax restrictions, policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO and the individual portfolio managers in connection with managing the Portfolio and may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Portfolio will be achieved
High Yield Risk:the risk that high yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as "junk bonds") are subject to greater levels of credit, call and liquidity risks. High yield securities are considered primarily speculative with respect to the issuer's continuing ability to make principal and interest payments, and may be more volatile than higher-rated securities of similar maturity
Currency Risk:the risk that foreign (non-U.S.) currencies will change in value relative to the U.S. dollar and affect the Portfolio's investments in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, or in derivatives that provide exposure to, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies
Leveraging Risk:the risk that certain transactions of the Portfolio, such as reverse repurchase agreements, loans of portfolio securities, and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, or derivative instruments, may give rise to leverage, magnifying gains and losses and causing the Portfolio to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. This means that leverage entails a heightened risk of loss
Issuer Risk:the risk that the value of a security may decline for a reason directly related to the issuer, such as management performance, changes in financial condition or credit rating, financial leverage, reputation or reduced demand for the issuer's goods or services
Turnover Risk:the risk that high levels of portfolio turnover may increase transaction costs and taxes and may lower investment performance
Municipal Securities Risk:the risk that investing in municipal securities subjects the Portfolio to certain risks, including variations in the quality of municipal securities, both within a particular classification and between classifications. The rates of return on municipal securities can depend on a variety of factors, including general money market conditions, the financial condition of the issuer, general conditions of the municipal bond market, the size of a particular offering, the maturity of the obligation and the rating of the issue
Inflation/Deflation Risk:the risk that the value of assets or income from a Portfolio's investments will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of payments at future dates. As inflation increases, the real value of a Portfolio's investments could decline. Deflation risk is the risk that prices throughout the economy decline over time. Deflation may have an adverse effect on the creditworthiness of issuers and may make issuer default more likely, which may result in a decline in the value of a Portfolio's investments
Sovereign Debt Risk:the risk that investments in fixed income instruments issued by sovereign entities may decline in value as a result of default or other adverse credit event resulting from an issuer's inability or unwillingness to make principal or interest payments in a timely fashion
Please see "Description of Principal Risks" for more information regarding the risks associated with investing in the Portfolio. An investment in the Portfolio is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

After-tax returns are calculated using the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from tax returns shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to investors who hold their shares through tax advantaged arrangements such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.In some cases the return after taxes may exceed the return before taxes due to an assumed tax benefit from any losses on a sale of Portfolio shares at the end of the measurement period.
Investment Adviser/Portfolio Managers
PIMCO serves as the investment adviser and administrator for the Portfolio. The Portfolio is jointly and primarily managed by Steve Rodosky and Daniel He. Mr. Rodosky is a Managing Director and portfolio manager in PIMCO's Newport Beach office. Mr. He is an Executive Vice President and portfolio manager in PIMCO's Newport Beach office. Mr. Rodosky has managed the Portfolio since January 2019. Mr. He has managed the Portfolio since December 2019.
Purchase and Sale of Portfolio Shares
Shares of the Portfolio may be purchased only by or on behalf of "wrap" account clients where PIMCO or Virtus Fund Advisers, LLC (each, as applicable, the "Wrap Program Adviser") has an agreement to serve as investment adviser or sub-adviser to the account with the wrap program sponsor (typically a registered investment adviser, bank or broker-dealer) or directly with the client. A client agreement to open an account typically may be obtained by contacting the wrap program sponsor. Minimum investment amounts for investing in a Portfolio can be found in the wrap-fee brochure provided to you by the wrap program sponsor or your investment adviser. Generally, purchase and redemption orders for Portfolio shares are processed at the net asset value ("NAV") next calculated after the broker-dealer who executes trades for the applicable wrap account receives the order on behalf of the account. Orders received by the broker-dealer prior to the time the Portfolio's NAV is determined on a business day will be processed at that day's NAV, even if the order is received by the transfer agent after the Portfolio's NAV has been calculated that day, as long as the order is received by the transfer agent prior to such time as agreed upon by the transfer agent and the broker-dealer.
Tax Information
The Portfolio's distributions are generally taxable to you as ordinary income, capital gains or a combination of the two, unless you are investing through a tax-advantaged arrangement, such as a 401(k) plan or an individual retirement account, in which case distributions may be taxable upon withdrawal.
