Investments, including investments in closed-end funds, involve risk and investors can lose face value. The capital markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to negative issuer, political, regulatory, market or economic developments. It is important to remember that there is risk associated with an investment and there can be no guarantee that an investment or asset class will perform well over time. Value style investing carries the risk that stocks or securities will never reach our estimate of intrinsic value because the market fails to see what the portfolio management team thinks is the real goodwill, or because the portfolio management team has misjudged these values. In addition, during certain periods of time, value style investments can fall out of favor and lag behind growth or other style investments. Investing outside of the US carries additional risks, such as: B. the potential for adverse political, monetary, economic, social or regulatory developments in a country, including lack of liquidity, excessive taxation and differing legal and accounting standards. Non-US securities, including American Depository Receipts (ADRs) and other Depository Receipts, are also subject to interest rate and exchange rate risks.

Annuity instruments are subject to interest rate, inflation and credit risks. Such investments can be secured, partially secured or unsecured and cannot be rated. Regardless of whether they are rated or not, they can have speculative characteristics.

In general, when interest rates rise, the values ​​of fixed income instruments fall and vice versa. Certain Fixed Income Instruments are subject to prepayment and / or default risk.

Private placement securities are securities that are not registered under federal securities laws and generally can only be sold to certain eligible investors. Private placements can be illiquid and therefore more difficult to sell as there may be relatively few potential buyers for such investments and the sale of such investments may also be restricted under securities laws.

The fund can use leverage. While the use of leverage may help increase the potential dividend and return of the Fund, it also increases the volatility of the Fund’s Net Asset Value (NAV) and potentially increases the volatility of its distributions and the market price. There are costs associated with the use of leverage, including ongoing dividend and / or interest expenses. There may also be costs for issuing or managing leverage. Leverage alters the capital structure of the Fund by issuing preferred stocks and / or debt securities, both of which are senior to the common stocks. When short-term interest rates rise, the cost of leverage increases and is likely to reduce the returns generated by the common shareholders of the Fund.
