Investment Valuation
– Securities which are traded on a national stock exchange are valued at the last sale price on the securities exchange on which
such securities are primarily traded. Securities traded on the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which there were no transactions
are valued at the last sale price. Investments in open-end mutual funds (other than exchange-traded funds) are valued at their respective
net asset values (“NAV”) on the valuation date. |
Level 1 – |
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access. |
Level 2 – |
Observable inputs other than quoted prices included
in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the
identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves,
default rates and similar data. |
Level 3 – |
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability,
to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market
participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available. |
