| | Fair Value
Measurements - Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of
investments. These inputs are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy
consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes as follows: | |
| | | Level 1
unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets
and liabilities |
| | | 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 Funds own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. The categorization of a value determined for investments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and does not necessarily correspond to the Funds perceived risk of investing in those securities. For information about the Funds policy regarding valuation of investments and other significant accounting policies, please refer to the Funds most recent financial statements as contained in its annual report.
