Fair Value Measurements Various inputs are used in determining the | ||||||||
fair value of investments, which are as follows: | ||||||||
Level 1 price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical |
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, | |||
repayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or | |||
other market-corroborated inputs) | |||
Level 3 unobservable inputs based on the best information available | |||
in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available | |||
(including the Trusts own assumptions used in determining the fair | |||
value of investments) | |||
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not | |||
necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those | |||
securities. For information about the Funds policy regarding valuation of | |||
investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to the | |||
Trusts most recent financial statements as contained in its annual report. | |||
