|
| Fair Value Hierarchy as of Period End |
Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments. 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 Trust 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 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 Trust’s 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. The significant unobservable inputs used by the Global Valuation
Committee in determining the price for Fair Valued Investments are typically categorized as Level 3.
Changes in valuation techniques may result
in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the hierarchy. In accordance with the Trust’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period.
The categorization of a value determined for investments is based on the pricing transparency of the investments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Trust’s
policy regarding valuation of investments, refer to the Trust’s most recent financial statements as contained in its semi-annual report.

following tables summarize the Trust’s investments and derivative financial instruments categorized in the disclosure hierarchy:
