Re:  Comments on Financial Statements


Dear Ms. Miller:


This letter is in response to the comments you provided telephonically to the undersigned on April 11, 2017 with respect to the shareholder reports and Forms N-CSR, N-1A and N-SAR filed by the registrants as listed on Schedule A. The comments and responses thereto are set forth below.  References herein to “Registrant” is to the appropriate references to sections of shareholder reports and Forms N-CSR, N-1A, and N-SAR are from the documents specified on Schedule A except as otherwise indicated. Changes referenced in responses below will be incorporated into shareholder reports or applicable regulatory filings as noted below for periods ending June 30, 2017 and thereafter.  


Form N-CSR


Eaton Vance New Jersey Municipal Income Fund and Eaton Vance Pennsylvania Municipal Income Fund


1.

Comment:  The Notes to Financial Statements disclose the amount of floating rate notes outstanding, interest rate or range of interest rate, and collateral for floating rate notes outstanding.  The Staff notes that the average amount of floating rate notes outstanding and average interest rate includes fees.  Please explain why all of the amounts of floating rate notes outstanding do not include fees.


Response: The reference to the inclusion of fees relates only to the calculation of average interest rates on floating rate notes because such fees are included as a component of interest expense and fees on the Statement of Operations. At July 31, 2016, any unpaid fees related to the floating rate notes outstanding were included in interest expense and fees payable on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

2.

Comment:  The Financial Highlights disclose expenses exclusive of interest and fees, interest and fee expense, and total expenses.  Please consider disclosing only the expense ratio required by the Form, and include all other in the footnote below the statement.


Response: The Registrant believes that the current presentation is informative and clearly communicates the nature of the Fund’s expenses. For funds that employ investment leverage, interest expense can be a significant component of total expenses and, while not required, the Registrant believes it is important to identify interest expenses relative to the fund’s other expenses and total expenses.  


Eaton Vance Hexavest International Equity Fund, Eaton Vance Hexavest Emerging Markets Equity Fund, and Eaton Vance Hexavest Global Equity Fund, Eaton Vance Global Macro Absolute Return Fund, Eaton Vance Commodity Strategy Fund


3.

Comment: The Staff noted certain funds purchased and sold USD in connection with foreign exchange contracts.  The Average Notional Amount disclosed in the Annual Report (page 53) shows one notional calculation. Please consider indicating that this amount is shown on a net basis and includes purchases and sales of USD.  Please address this comment across all funds in the Eaton Vance fund complex, as applicable.


Response: The Registrant will clarify the disclosure in future reports to indicate that the average notional amount reflects the absolute value of gross purchases and gross sales in the calculation of the average volume of foreign exchange contracts.


Eaton Vance Hexavest International Equity Fund, Eaton Vance Hexavest Emerging Markets Equity Fund, and Eaton Vance Hexavest Global Equity Fund


4.

Comment: The Staff notes that, in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 850, the Notes to the Financial Statements must disclose the must disclose the rates, amounts, and terms of payment pursuant to the sub-advisory contract with Hexavest Inc.


Response:  The sub-advisory agreement relating to each Fund is between the Fund adviser and Hexavest Inc., the Fund sub-adviser (Hexavest).  The Fund is not a party to the sub-advisory agreement.  Accordingly, Registrant believes the disclosure in the Notes to the Financial Statements concerning the delegation of the investment management of each Fund by its adviser to the sub-adviser is sufficient to meet the requirements of ASC 850.


Eaton Vance Balanced Fund and Eaton Vance Core Bond Fund


5.

Comment:  Please consider including the type of fund structure applicable to each fund in the Financial Statements (i.e., Fund-of-Fund, Master-Feeder, etc.)


Response: Registrant believes that the current disclosure in the Notes to Financial Statements, which describes the entities in which the Fund invests in meeting its investment objective, is adequate to understand a fund’s structure.  For instance, see Note 1 to the Financial Statements of Balanced Fund, which states that the Fund currently pursues its objective by investing all of its investable assets in interests in two portfolios.

Eaton Vance Growth Fund


6.

Comment: In accordance with ASC 805-10-50, 805-20-50, and 805-30-50, please include the exchange ratio for a reorganization within the Notes to the Financial Statements for surviving or acquired funds.


Response: The Notes to the Financial Statements include both the number of shares issued by the acquiring fund and the number of shares of the acquired fund that were exchanged in the reorganization for each class of shares. Registrant believes that this disclosure meets the requirement of ASC 805.


International Income Portfolio and Eaton Vance Diversified Currency Income Fund


7.

Comment: The Notes to the Financial Statements disclose details on expense limitations.  Please explain whether the fee reductions are subject to recoupment from the adviser.  If so, please disclose the terms of recoupment. Please apply this comment to all subsidized funds within the Eaton Vance fund complex.


Response:  The fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed under the expense reimbursement arrangements are not recoverable by the investment adviser or its affiliates in future periods.  As disclosed in the Prospectus for each Fund, amounts reimbursed may be recouped by the investment adviser and/or its affiliates during the same fiscal year to the extent actual expenses are less than the contractual expense cap during such year.



Parametric Emerging Markets Fund, Parametric International Equity Fund, Parametric Commodity Strategy Fund, and Parametric Dividend Income Fund


8.

Comment: Please explain why the rate or dollar amount of the portion of the advisory and administration fees that Eaton Vance Management pays to Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC is not disclosed in the Notes to the Financial Statements, as required by ASC 850.


Response:  The sub-advisory agreement relating to each Fund is between the Fund adviser and Hexavest Inc., the Fund sub-adviser (Hexavest).  The Fund is not a party to the sub-advisory agreement.  Accordingly, Registrant believes the disclosure in the Notes to the Financial Statements concerning the delegation of the investment management of each Fund by its adviser to the sub-adviser is sufficient to meet the requirements of ASC 850.



Tax Managed Growth Portfolio


9.

Comment:  The Staff notes the disclosure of Legal Proceedings in Note 8 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.  Please include a line item in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities entitled “Commitment and Contingent Liabilities,” in accordance with Regulation S-X 6-04.15.  Please apply across the Eaton Vance fund complex, as applicable.


Response:  The Registrant acknowledges the above comment and will include the line item in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in future shareholder reports of this Portfolio and other Eaton Vance funds, as applicable.

Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Global Small-Cap Fund


10.

Comment:  The Statement of Assets and Liabilities references investments in Tax-Managed Small Cap Value Portfolio, which appears to be a previous name of the Fund.  Please correct.


Response:  The Registrant acknowledges that the name of the Portfolio in which the Fund invests, appearing in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, reflects the Portfolio’s former name.  This will be corrected in the Fund’s next shareholder report.


Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio


11.

Comment:  The Staff notes a large percentage of gains and losses via derivatives transactions, and further notes there are no disclosures regarding the impact of derivatives contained in Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance (MDFP). In accordance with the SEC’s Division of Investment Management letter from Barry Miller to Karen McMillan, General Counsel of the ICI, dated July 30, 2010, please ensure that the use of derivatives is adequately disclosed.  Please apply this comment to all feeder funds of Emerging Markets Local Income Portfolio.


Response:  The Portfolio in which the Fund invests may engage in derivatives to enhance total return, to seek to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates and/or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currencies.  The MDFP describes the Fund’s positioning that had a material impact on Fund performance over the reporting period.  The discussion relates to positions in various instruments, including derivatives.  



Eaton Vance Variable Funds


12.

Comment:  Please include disclosure in the footnotes to the Financial Highlights:  “does not include fees and expenses imposed by variable annuity contracts.  If it did, performance would be lower.”


Response:  The Registrant acknowledges the above comment and will include such information in the footnotes to the Financial Highlights in future shareholder reports of the Variable Funds.


Worldwide Health Sciences Portfolio


13.

Comment: The Staff notes that the Portfolio had $5.2 million in foreign tax reclaims receivable as of August 2016.  Please explain supplementally which country this receivable relates to, and please describe how long such receivable has remained outstanding.


Response:  The foreign tax reclaims receivable as of August 31, 2016 was primarily due from Switzerland, with individual amounts outstanding for periods ranging from 0.5 to 4.5 years.


Eaton Vance Closed-End Funds


14.

Comment:  As noted previously, please include a line item in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities entitled “Commitment and Contingent Liabilities,” in accordance with Regulation S-X 6-04.15 for all applicable closed end funds.  


Response:  Please see the response at item 9.



U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

15.

Comment:  Please confirm if the following transactions have been appropriately disclosed in accordance with ASC 850-10-50, to the extent known:

a.

shareholders of the Fund that are other funds or entities managed by the same adviser; and

b.

other shareholders that are affiliates of the fund, including management.


Response:  Registrant confirms that to the extent known, ownership of shares by shareholders described in a. and b. above, if material, would have been disclosed in the Notes to the Financial Statements.


16.

Comment:  The Staff notes that certain closed-end funds had differing offering costs on their Statements of Assets and Liabilities regarding preferred shares.  Please explain if funds considered ASC 2015-03 in order to simplify the presentation of issuance costs as it relates to the new standard. Please confirm whether the funds have determined if the standard is applicable to preferred shares offering.


Response:  For closed-end funds that have issued Variable Rate Term Preferred Shares or Institutional MuniFund Term Preferred Shares, which are considered debt for financial reporting purposes, the Registrant has determined that the provisions of ASC 2015-03, including the treatment of debt issuance costs, are applicable.


Eaton Vance Short-Duration Diversified Income Fund


17.

Comment:  The Staff notes that the fund has 53.1% investment in bank loans. If the fund receives any consent fees or amendment income, please describe the accounting for this income in the Notes to the Financial Statements and disclose the amounts separately from interest income per Regulation 6-07.1.  The Staff notes that this comment applies to all funds with significant investment in bank loans.


Response: Fee income from investments in bank loans was less than 0.5% of total investment income and was included in interest income on the Statement of Operations. The line item on the Statement of Operations should more appropriately have been called “Interest and Other Income” in this situation, in accordance with the Fund’s disclosure policy, and the reference to “other income” was inadvertently omitted. The Registrant will ensure that the appropriate categorization of all line items on the Statement of Operations will be reflected in future filings.  The Registrant believes that the accounting policy for amendment fee income as included in Note 1C is adequate.


Form N-SAR


Tax-Managed Growth Fund 1.0


18.

Comment:  Please explain why the fund did not file an internal control letter filed with NSAR-B filed on February 28, 2017.


Response:  An amended Form NSAR-B was filed on May 5, 2017, to include the required internal control letter, which was inadvertently omitted from the original filing.

Response:  The Registrant notes that disclosure is included in the funds statutory prospectus, under the “Investment Objective & Principal Strategies and Risks - General,” which discloses that redemptions by large shareholders could affect the Fund.  


Core Bond Portfolio


23.

Comment:  The portfolio turnover rate for the Portfolio was greater than 100% for all years presented in the Financial Highlights. Please explain why high portfolio turnover risk is not disclosed as a principal risk of investing in the fund.

Comment:  Please explain why high portfolio turnover risk is not disclosed as a principal risk of investing in the fund.

25.

Comment:  Please explain why ETF risk is shown as a principal risk of investing in the fund.


Response:  The fund may invest in ETFs up to the limitations imposed by the 1940 Act, and may do so as part of its principal strategies.


Parametric International Equity Fund and Parametric Emerging Markets Fund


26.

Comment: Please explain why ETF risk, Derivatives risk, and Securities Lending risk are considered principal risks of investing in the fund.


Response: The funds may invest in ETFs or derivatives, or engage in securities lending up to the limitations imposed by the 1940 Act, and may do so as part of their principal strategies.


Eaton Vance National Limited Maturity Municipal Income Fund


27.

Comment:  Please consider moving the following disclosure included in the fund’s summary prospectus dated August 1, 2016 to the Statutory Prospectus:  


“The Fund may purchase or sell derivative instruments (such as residual interest bonds, futures contracts and options thereon, interest rate and total return swaps, and forward rate contracts) for hedging purposes, to seek total return or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities. There is no stated limit on the Fund’s use of derivatives.”


Response: The Fund has invested in derivatives historically and such instruments are part of its principal investment strategy.


Eaton Vance Greater China Growth Fund


28.

Comment:  Please consider moving the following disclosure included in the fund’s summary prospectus dated January 1, 2017 to the Statutory Prospectus:  


“The Fund may engage in derivative transactions such as forward foreign currency exchange contracts to attempt to mitigate the adverse effects of foreign currency fluctuations during the period between the purchase of a security and its settlement.  The Fund may also seek to gain exposure to common stocks through the use of equity-linked securities (such as participation notes (“p-notes”)).  The Fund expects to use p-notes to invest indirectly in certain stocks that trade in a market that restricts foreign investors, such as the Fund, from investing directly in the market.  The Fund’s investments in equity-linked securities will not exceed 10% of the Fund’s net assets.”


Response: The Registrant intends to make changes consistent with this comment in the fund’s registration statement annual update.

Eaton Vance Worldwide Health Sciences Fund


29.

Comment:  Please consider moving the following disclosure included in the fund’s summary prospectus dated January 1, 2017 to the Statutory Prospectus:  


“The Fund may engage in derivative transactions to seek return, to hedge against fluctuations in securities prices or currency exchange rates, or as a substitute for the purchase or sale of securities or currencies. The Fund expects to use derivatives primarily to seek to generate income by writing covered call options or put options. The Fund may also enter into a combination of option transactions on individual securities. In addition, the Fund may seek to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates through the use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts. Permitted derivatives include: the purchase or sale of forward or futures contracts; options on futures contracts; exchange-traded and over-the-counter options; equity collars and equity swap agreements. There is no stated limit on the Fund’s use of derivatives. The Fund may also engage in covered short sales (on individual securities held or on an index or basket of securities whose constituents are held in whole or in part or for which liquid assets have been segregated).”


Response:  Derivatives may be used as part of the Fund’s principal investment strategy.  As reflected in the Fund’s semi-annual report dated February 28, 2017, the Fund currently engages in options transactions.  As such, the Fund believes the noted disclosure should remain in the summary prospectus.


Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Growth Fund 1.1 and Eaton Vance Tax-Managed Growth Fund 1.2


30.

Comment:  The Staff notes that the fund has 29.9% investment in the Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC, however, there is no mention of investments in money market funds or temporary or defensive positions within the principal investment strategies or the principal risks of investing in the fund.  Please explain.


Response: Investing in cash and cash equivalents is not a principal strategy of the Fund.  Instruction 6 to Item 9(b) of Form N-1A requires a fund to disclose whether it may from time to time, take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with the Fund’s principal investment strategies in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions.  The Fund’s statutory prospectus discloses under “Investment Objective & Polices and Risks – General” that the Fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in cash or cash equivalents temporarily, which may be inconsistent with its investment objective(s), principal investment strategies and other policies.  The MDFP included in the shareholder report



U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

disclosed that the Fund maintained a relatively high cash position at September 30, 2016 in response to a range of economic and political uncertainties, including the 2016 U.S. presidential election, Britain’s Brexit vote to leave the European Union, and the health of several European banks.  The prospectus also discloses under “Investment Objective & Policies and Risks – Cash and Cash Equivalents” that the Fund may invest in an affiliated money market fund.


Emerging Markets Income Portfolio


33.

Comment:  Investing in cash and cash equivalents is not a principal strategy of the Fund.  The Staff notes that the fund had approximately 12% investment in the Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC, however, there is no mention of investments in money market funds or temporary or defensive positions within the principal investment strategies or the principal risks of investing in the fund.  Please explain.


Response:  Investing in cash and cash equivalents is not a principal strategy of the Fund.  Instruction 6 to Item 9(b) of Form N-1A requires a fund to disclose whether it may from time to time, take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with the Fund’s principal investment strategies in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions.  The Fund’s statutory prospectus discloses under “Investment Objective & Policies and Risks – General” that the Fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in cash or cash equivalents temporarily, which may be inconsistent with its investment objective(s), principal investment strategies and other policies.  The prospectus also discloses under “Investment Objective & Policies and Risks – Cash and Cash Equivalents” that the Fund may invest in an affiliated money market fund.  


Eaton Vance Richard Bernstein Equity Strategy Fund


34.

Comment:  The Staff notes that the fund had 10.5% investment in the Eaton Vance Cash Reserves Fund, LLC, however, there is no mention of investments in money market funds or temporary or defensive positions within the principal investment strategies or the principal risks of investing in the fund.  Please explain.


Response:  Investing in cash and cash equivalents is not a principal strategy of the Fund.  Instruction 6 to Item 9(b) of Form N-1A requires a fund to disclose whether it may from time to time, take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with the Fund’s principal investment strategies in attempting to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions.  The Fund’s statutory prospectus discloses under “Investment Objective & Policies and Risks – General” that the Fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in cash or cash equivalents temporarily, which may be inconsistent with its investment objective(s), principal investment strategies and other policies.  The prospectus also discloses under “Investment Objective & Policies and Risks – Cash and Cash Equivalents” that the Fund may invest in an affiliated money market fund.  


Eaton Vance Global Macro Capital Opportunities Fund


35.

Comment:  The Staff notes that the fund had approximately 26.2% held in the Financials sector.  Please ensure that sector risk is adequately disclosed.


Response:  The Registrant intends to include additional disclosure regarding sector risk during the fund’s 2017 registration statement annual update.  




U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

June 1, 2017

Page 10




Eaton Vance Greater China Growth Fund


36.

Comment:  The Staff notes that the fund had approximately 28.8% held in the Financials sector and 28.3% held in the Information Technology sector.  Please explain supplementally whether sector risk is adequately disclosed.


Response: The fund believes that the inclusion of additional risk disclosure regarding the fund’s investment in the Financial or Information Technology sectors is not necessary at this time, as it is not a policy of the fund to invest more than 25% in a particular sector and the fund does not have a policy of concentrating in any industry. The Registrant also notes that the fund’s positioning is proportionate to that of its benchmark, the MSCI Golden Dragon Index, which is currently weighted at approximately 24% in Financials sector and 34% in the Information Technology sector


Eaton Vance VT Large-Cap Value Fund


37.

Comment: The disclosure indicates that the portfolio managers generally consider large-cap companies to be those companies having market capitalizations equal to or greater than $3 billion.  Please explain supplementally why management considers this to be a large-cap company.  Please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions about Rule 35d-1 (Investment Company Names), dated December 4, 2001, Question 6.


Response:  Eaton Vance VT Large-Cap Value fund was liquidated on April 28, 2017.
