Summary of Fair Value Disclosure

December 31, 2015 (Unaudited)

 

Security Valuation. The Fund has adopted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) fair value accounting standards which establish a definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value and a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities

Level 2—Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, or inputs derived from observable market data

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the reporting entity’s estimates and assumptions)

Assets and liabilities may be transferred between levels. The Fund uses end of period timing recognition to account for any transfers.

Market values for domestic and foreign fixed income securities are normally determined on the basis of valuations provided by independent pricing services. Vendors typically value such securities based on one or more inputs described in the following table which is not intended to be a complete list. The table provides examples of inputs that are commonly relevant for valuing particular classes of fixed income securities in which the Fund is authorized to invest. However, these classifications are not exclusive, and any of the inputs may be used to value any other class of fixed-income securities. Securities that use similar valuation techniques and inputs as described in the following table are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. To the extent the significant inputs are unobservable, the values would be categorized as Level 3.

 

Fixed-income class

  

Examples of Standard Inputs

All   

 

Benchmark yields, transactions, bids, offers, quotations from dealers and trading systems, new issues, spreads and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities; and proprietary pricing models such as yield measures calculated using factors such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance and other reference data (collectively referred to as “standard inputs”)

Corporate bonds and notes; convertible securities    Standard inputs and underlying equity of the issuer
US bonds and notes of government and government agencies    Standard inputs
Residential and commercial mortgage-backed obligations; asset-backed obligations (including collateralized loan obligations)    Standard inputs and cash flows, prepayment information, default rates, delinquency and loss assumptions, collateral characteristics, credit enhancements and specific deal information, trustee reports
Bank loans    Standard inputs

Investments in registered open-end management investment companies will be valued based upon the net asset value (“NAV”) of such investments and are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Investments in private investment funds typically will be valued based upon the NAVs of such investments and are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of December 31, 2015, the Fund did not hold any investments in private investment funds.

Securities may be fair valued in accordance with the fair valuation procedures approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The Valuation Committee is generally responsible for overseeing the day to day valuation processes and reports periodically to the Board. The Valuation Committee and the Pricing Group are authorized to make all necessary determinations of the fair values of portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available or if it is deemed that the prices obtained from brokers and dealers or independent pricing services are deemed to be unreliable indicators of market value.

The following is a summary of the fair valuations according to the inputs used to value the Fund’s investments as of December 31, 20151:
