Valuation of investments

 

Portfolio investments are valued at fair value utilizing various valuation methods approved by the Board of Trustees (“Board”). U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes market inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

 

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
  
Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit spreads, etc.)
  
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

 

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized as Level 3. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

Investments in registered investment companies: These investments are valued at their net asset value on the valuation date. These investments are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

As of August 31, 2019, all of the investments in the Funds were valued based on Level 1 inputs.
