84

(b) Repurchase Agreements

 

In a repurchase agreement, a Fund buys a security at one price and at the time of sale, the seller agrees to repurchase the security at a mutually agreed upon time and price (usually within seven days). The repurchase agreement thereby determines the yield during the purchaser’s holding period, while the seller’s obligation to repurchase is secured by the value of the underlying collateral. William Blair Investment Management, LLC (“the Adviser”) monitors, on an ongoing basis, the value of the underlying collateral to ensure that the value always equals or exceeds the repurchase price plus accrued interest. Repurchase agreements may involve certain risks in the event of a default or insolvency of the other party to the agreement, including possible delays or restrictions upon a Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying collateral. The risk to a Fund is limited to the ability of the seller to pay the agreed upon sum on the delivery date. In the event of default, a repurchase agreement provides that a Fund is entitled to sell the underlying collateral. The loss, if any, to a Fund will be the difference between the proceeds from the sale and the repurchase price. However, if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security, disposition of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited. The Funds have master repurchase agreements which allow the Funds to offset amounts owed to a counterparty with amounts owed from the same counterparty, including any collateral, in the event the counterparty defaults. Each Fund’s outstanding repurchase agreements, if any, and related collateral, are shown on the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments. Although no definitive creditworthiness criteria are used, the Adviser reviews the creditworthiness of the banks and non-bank dealers with which a Fund enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate those risks. A Fund may, for tax purposes, deem repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Government securities to be investments in U.S. Government securities.

 

(2) Valuation

 

(a) Investment Valuation

 

The value of U.S. equity securities, including exchange-traded funds, is determined by valuing securities traded on national securities markets or in the over-the-counter markets at the last sale price or, if applicable, the official closing price or, in the absence of a recent sale on the date of determination, at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices.

 

The value of foreign equity securities is generally determined based upon the last sale price on the foreign exchange or market on which it is primarily traded and in the currency of that market as of the close of the appropriate exchange or, if there have been no sales during that day, at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices. The Adviser has determined that the passage of time between when the foreign exchanges or markets close and when the Funds compute their net asset values could cause the value of foreign equity securities to no longer be representative or accurate and, as a result, may necessitate that such securities be fair valued. Accordingly, for foreign equity securities, the Funds may use an independent pricing service to fair value price the security as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE. As a result, a Fund’s value for a foreign security may be different from the last sale price (or the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices). As of September 30, 2022, fair valuation estimates for foreign equity securities were obtained.

 

Fixed income securities are generally valued using evaluated prices provided by an independent pricing service. The evaluated prices are formed using various market inputs that the pricing service believes accurately represent the market value of a security at a particular point in time. The pricing service determines evaluated prices for fixed income securities using inputs including, but not limited to, recent transaction prices for such securities, dealer quotes, transaction prices for other securities with similar characteristics, collateral characteristics, credit quality, payment history, liquidity and market conditions.

 

Repurchase agreements are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

 

Forward foreign currency contracts are valued on the basis of the value of the underlying currencies at the prevailing currency exchange rate as supplied by an independent pricing service.

 

Swaps that are centrally cleared through an exchange are valued at the most recent settlement price provided by the exchange on which they are cleared. Total return swaps on equities, equity baskets, indices and other financial instruments are valued by an independent pricing service, or if unavailable, based on the security’s or instrument’s underlying reference asset.

 

Securities, and other assets, for which a market price is not available or is deemed unreliable (e.g., securities affected by unusual or extraordinary events, such as natural disasters or securities affected by market or economic events, such as bankruptcy filings), or the value of which is affected by a significant valuation event, are valued at a fair value. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board of Trustees has designated the Adviser as the valuation designee to perform fair value determinations for the Funds. The value of these fair valued securities may be different from the last sale price (or the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices), and there is no guarantee that a fair valued security will be sold at the price at which a Fund is carrying the security.

85

(b) Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that a Fund would receive upon selling a security in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. Various inputs are used in determining the value of a Fund’s investments. A three-tier hierarchy of inputs is used to classify fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

  Level 1—Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for an identical security.
     
  Level 2—Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants would use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, and others. In addition, other observable inputs such as foreign exchange rates, benchmark securities indices and foreign futures contracts may be utilized in the valuation of certain foreign securities when significant events occur between the last sale on the foreign securities exchange and the time at which the net asset value of the Fund is calculated.
     
  Level 3—Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment, and are based on the best information available.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

 

A description of the valuation methodologies applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows:

 

Exchange-Traded Securities

 

Securities traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the NASDAQ national market), including exchange-traded funds, are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation. Other securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are stated at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Securities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are generally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Fixed Income Securities

 

Fixed income securities including corporate, convertible and municipal bonds and notes, U.S. government agency obligations, U.S. treasury obligations, sovereign issues, bank loans, convertible preferred securities, asset-backed securities, non-U.S. bonds and commercial paper are generally valued using evaluated prices provided by an independent pricing service. The evaluated prices are formed using various market inputs that the pricing service believes accurately represent the fair value of a security at a particular point in time. The pricing service determines evaluated prices for fixed income securities using inputs including, but not limited to, recent transaction prices for such securities, dealer quotes, transaction prices for other securities with similar characteristics, collateral characteristics, credit quality, payment history, liquidity and market conditions. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and observable inputs as described above are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Repurchase Agreements

 

Repurchase agreements are valued at cost, which approximates fair value. Repurchase agreements are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

Derivative Instruments

 

Forward foreign currency contracts are valued using pricing inputs observed from actively quoted markets and are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

As of September 30, 2022, the value of investments in securities and other financial instruments, segregated by their hierarchical input levels used in determining fair value and by security class or other financial instruments, are shown below (in thousands).

(3) Financial Derivative Instruments

 

Each Fund may use derivative instruments to maintain liquidity, to provide hedging, or in anticipation of changes in the composition of its portfolio holdings or as otherwise provided in each Fund’s prospectus.

 

Derivative transactions carry counterparty risk as they are based on contracts between a Fund and the applicable counterparty. For exchange-traded or cleared derivative contracts, such counterparty risk is limited due to the role of the exchange or clearinghouse. OTC derivative contracts, however, are exposed to counterparty risk in the amount of unrealized gains, net of collateral held, for the duration of the contract.

 

Emerging Markets Debt Fund is subject to certain netting arrangements through International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements and Credit Support Annexes (“ISDAs”). The ISDAs maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral and events of default or termination. The ISDAs cover certain OTC derivative securities entered into by Emerging Markets Debt Fund with various counterparties and allow Emerging Markets Debt Fund to close out and net its total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default.

 

Forward Foreign Currency Contracts

 

The Global Equity, International Equity and Emerging Markets Debt Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts. When entering into a forward foreign currency contract, a Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed future date. A Fund’s net equity therein, representing unrealized gain or loss on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date. These instruments may involve market risk, credit risk, or both kinds of risks in excess of the amount recognized in the Portfolio of Investments. Risks arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from the price movements in currencies.

Swap Contracts

 

Swap agreements may include total return, interest rate, securities index, commodity, security, currency exchange rate, credit default index, volatility and variance swaps. Cleared swaps are transacted through futures commission merchants that are members of central clearing houses with the clearing house serving as a central counterparty similar to transactions in futures contracts. In a standard “swap” transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties are calculated with respect to a “notional amount” (i.e., the change in the value of a particular dollar amount invested, for example, at a particular interest rate, in a particular foreign currency, or in a “basket” of securities representing a particular index). Swap agreements are subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its obligation to pay a Fund and the risk that a Fund will not be able to meet its obligations to pay the counterparty to the swap. Swap agreements may also involve fees, commissions or other costs that may reduce a Fund’s gains from a swap agreement or may cause a Fund to lose money. To the extent permitted by its investment policies and restrictions, a Fund may invest in the following types of swaps:

 

Credit Default Swaps—A Fund may invest in credit default swaps as a means of “buying” credit protection (i.e., attempting to mitigate the risk of default or credit quality deterioration in some portion of a Fund’s holdings) or “selling” credit protection (i.e., attempting to gain exposure to an underlying issuer’s credit quality characteristics without directly investing in that issuer). A credit default swap is a contract between a buyer and a seller of protection against a pre-defined credit event (e.g., a ratings downgrade or default) on an underlying reference obligation, which may be a single debt instrument or baskets or indices of securities. Under current regulatory requirements, a Fund may be a buyer or seller of a credit default swap. As a seller of protection on credit default swap agreements, a Fund will generally receive from the buyer of protection a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. A Fund adds leverage to its portfolio because the Fund is subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. The maximum potential amount of future payments that a Fund as a seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement equals the notional amount of the agreement. Notional amounts of each individual credit default swap agreement outstanding as of the period end for which a Fund is the seller of protection are disclosed in the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by the same Fund for the same referenced entity or entities. For credit default swap contracts on credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting values serve as an indicator of the payment performance risk. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, typically represent deterioration of the referenced entities’ credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the swap.

 

Interest Rate Swap—A Fund may invest in interest rate swaps to gain or mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates. Interest rate swap agreements involve a commitment between parties to pay either a fixed interest rate or a floating interest rate based on a notional amount of principal. The parties make payments at predetermined intervals throughout the life of the swap. As a payer, a Fund would make the fixed payment and receive the floating payment. As a receiver, a Fund would make the floating payment and receive the fixed payment.

 

Total Return Swap—A Fund may invest in total return swaps to gain or mitigate exposure to an underlying security, or securities. Total return swap agreements may involve commitments to pay interest in exchange for the return on the underlying security, or securities. At maturity, a net cash flow is exchanged between the parties based on the total return of the underlying security, or securities, less a financing rate. As a receiver in the transaction, a Fund would receive a payment for a positive return and would make a payment for a negative return. As a payer in the transaction, a Fund would make a payment for a positive return and would receive a payment for a negative return.
