BlackRock Debt Strategies Fund, Inc. (DSU) |
Fair Value Hierarchy as of Period End
Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation
techniques are categorized into a fair value hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes as follows:
|
|
|
Level 1 Unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the
Fund has the ability to access |
|
|
|
Level 2 Other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities
in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves,
volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other marketcorroborated inputs) |
|
|
|
Level 3 Unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent
observable inputs are not available (including the Funds own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments) |
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority
to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of
the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Investments classified within
Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs used by the BlackRock Global Valuation Methodologies Committee (the Global Valuation Committee) in determining the price for Fair Valued Investments. Level 3 investments include
equity or debt issued by privately held companies or funds. There may not be a secondary market, and/or there are a limited number of investors. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based
on the pricing transparency of the investments and derivative financial instruments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Funds policy regarding valuation of
investments and derivative financial instruments, refer to the Funds most recent financial statements as contained in its annual report.
The following tables
summarize the Funds investments and derivative financial instruments categorized in the disclosure hierarchy:
