Closed-End Fund Risk. Closed-end funds involve investment risks different from those associated with other investment companies. First, the shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a premium or discount relative to their net asset value. When the Fund purchases shares of a closed-end fund at a discount to its net asset value, there can be no assurance that the discount will decrease, and it is possible that the discount may increase and affect whether the Fund will a realize gain or loss on the investment. Second, many closed-end funds use leverage, or borrowed money, to try to increase returns. Leverage is a speculative technique and its use by a closed-end fund entails greater risk and leads to a more volatile share price. If a close-end fund uses leverage, increases and decreases in the value of its share price will be magnified. The closed-end fund will also have to pay interest or dividends on its leverage, reducing the closed-end fund’s return. Third, many closed-end funds have a policy of distributing a fixed percentage of net assets regardless of the fund’s actual interest income and capital gains. Consequently, distributions by a closed-end fund may include a return of capital, which would reduce the fund’s net asset value and its earnings capacity. Finally, closed-end funds are allowed to invest in a greater amount of illiquid securities than open-end mutual funds. Investments in illiquid securities pose risks related to uncertainty in valuations, volatile market prices, and limitations on resale that may have an adverse effect on the ability of the fund to dispose of the securities promptly or at reasonable prices.

Control of Closed-End Funds Risk. Although the Fund and the Advisor will evaluate regularly each closed-end fund in which the Fund invests to determine whether its investment program is consistent with the Fund’s investment objective, the Advisor will not have any control over the investments made by a closed-end fund. The investment advisor to each closed-end fund may change aspects of its investment strategies at any time. The Advisor will not have the ability to control or otherwise influence the composition of the investment portfolio of a closed-end fund.

Investment Risk. An investment in Shares is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount invested. An investment in Shares represents an indirect investment in the securities owned by the Fund. The value of these securities, like other market investments, may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. The value of your Shares at any point in time may be worth less than the value of your original investment.

All investments involve risks, including the risk that the entire amount invested may be lost. No guarantee or representation is made that the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved.

Any real or perceived adverse economic changes, local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, disasters, trade disputes, disputes with specific countries that could result in additional tariffs, trade barriers and/or investment restrictions in certain securities of those countries, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, raising of interest rates, or other events, could have a material adverse impact on the Fund or its investments. Any of these conditions can adversely affect the economic prospects of many companies, sectors, nations, regions and the market in general, in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen. Moreover, changes in these and other areas present uncertainty and risk with respect to the Fund’s NAV, performance, financial condition, results of operations, ability to pay distributions, and portfolio liquidity, among other factors.

Economic problems in a single country are increasingly affecting other markets and economies, and a continuation of this trend could adversely affect global economic conditions and world markets. Uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets and political systems of the U.S. or any other country, including volatility as a result of the ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and Israel and Hamas and the rapidly evolving measures in response, may have adverse spill-over effects into the global financial markets generally.

Equity Securities Risk. Fluctuations in the value of equity securities held by the closed-end funds will cause the NAV of the Fund to fluctuate. Equity securities may decline in price if the issuer fails to make anticipated dividend payments. Common stock is subject to greater dividend risk than preferred stocks or debt instruments of the same issuer. In addition, equity securities have experienced significantly more volatility in returns than other asset classes.

Investment Advisor Risk. The Advisor’s ability to choose suitable investments has a significant impact on the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objectives. The portfolio managers’ experience is discussed in the section of this prospectus entitled “Management of the Fund – Investment Advisor.”

Leverage Risk. The Fund may leverage or borrow money from banks to buy securities and pledge its assets in connection with the borrowing. The use of leverage tends to magnify increases and decreases in the Fund’s returns and leads to a more volatile share price. The Fund will also incur borrowing costs in connection with its use of leverage. If the interest expense of the borrowing is greater than the return on the securities bought, the use of leverage will decrease the return to shareholders in the Fund. Leveraging by both the Fund and the underlying closed-end funds, which often employ leverage, will expose the Fund to a relatively high level of leveraging risk. There can be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful during any period in which it is employed.

Management Style Risk. Different types of securities tend to shift into and out of favor with investors depending on market and economic conditions. The returns from the types of investments purchased by the Fund (e.g., closed-end funds which pay regular periodic cash distributions) may at times be better or worse than the returns from other types of funds. Each type of investment tends to go through cycles of performing better or worse than the market in general. The performance of the Fund may thus be better or worse than the performance of funds that focus on other types of investments, or that have a broader investment style.

Money Market Mutual Fund Risk. The Fund may invest in money market mutual funds in order to manage its cash component. An investment in a money market mutual fund is not insured or guaranteed by a Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although such funds seek to preserve the value of the Fund’s investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in a money market mutual fund.

Fund of Funds Risk. The Fund is a “fund of funds.” The term “fund of funds” is typically used to describe investment companies, such as the Fund, whose principal investment strategy involves investing in other investment companies, including closed-end funds and money market mutual funds. Investments in other funds subject the Fund to additional operating and management fees and expenses. For instance, investors in the Fund will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the funds in which the Fund invests, in addition to the Fund’s direct fees and expenses. The Fund’s performance depends in part upon the performance of the funds’ investment advisor, the strategies and instruments used by the funds, and the Advisor’s ability to select funds and effectively allocate Fund assets among them.

Fixed Income Securities Risk. When the closed-end funds in the Fund’s portfolio invest in fixed income securities, the value of your investment in the Fund will fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the value of fixed income securities. In general, the market price of fixed income securities with longer maturities will increase or decrease more in response to changes in interest rates than shorter-term securities. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default), extension risk (an issuer may exercise its right to repay principal on a fixed rate obligation later than expected), and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments). These risks could affect the value of a particular investment by the Fund, possibly causing the Fund’s share price and total return to be reduced and fluctuate more than other types of investments.

Cybersecurity Risk. With the increased use of technologies such as the internet to conduct business, the Fund, like all companies, may be susceptible to operational, information security, and related risks. As part of its business, the Advisor processes, stores, and transmits large amounts of electronic information, including information relating to the transactions of the Fund. The Fund and its service providers are therefore susceptible to cybersecurity risk. Cybersecurity failures or breaches of the Fund or its service providers have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, the inability of Fund shareholders to transact business, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, and/or reputational damage. The Fund and its shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result.

Foreign Securities Risk. The Fund may invest indirectly in foreign securities through its investments in shares of closed-end funds. Foreign securities involve investment risks different from those associated with domestic securities. Changes in foreign economies and political climates are more likely to affect the Fund than investments in domestic securities. The value of foreign currency denominated securities or foreign currency contracts is affected by the value of the local currency relative to the U.S. dollar. There may be less government supervision of foreign markets, resulting in non-uniform accounting practices and less publicly available information about issuers of foreign currency denominated securities. The value of foreign investments may be affected by changes in exchange control regulations, application of foreign tax laws (including withholding tax), changes in governmental administration or economic or monetary policy (in this country or abroad) or changed circumstances in dealings between nations. In addition, foreign brokerage commissions, custody fees, and other costs of investing in foreign securities are generally higher than in the United States. Investments in foreign issues could be affected by other factors not present in the United States, including expropriation, armed conflict, confiscatory taxation, and potential difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations.

Investment Advisor Risk. The Advisor’s ability to choose suitable investments has a significant impact on the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objectives. The portfolio managers’ experience is discussed in the section of this prospectus entitled “Management of the Funds – Investment Advisor.”

Leverage Risk. The Fund may leverage or borrow money from banks to buy securities and pledge its assets in connection with the borrowing. Use of leverage tends to magnify increases and decreases in the Fund’s returns and leads to a more volatile share price. The Fund will also incur borrowing costs in connection with its use of leverage. If the interest expense of the borrowing is greater than the return on the securities bought, the use of leverage will decrease the return to shareholders in the Fund. Leveraging by both the Fund and the underlying closed-end funds, which often employ leverage, will expose the Fund to a relatively high level of leverage risk. There can be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful during any period in which it is employed.

Although such funds seek to preserve the value of the Fund’s investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in a money market mutual fund.

Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income prices overall will decline over short or even long periods of time due to rising interest rates. Securities with longer maturities and durations tend to be more sensitive to interest rates than securities with shorter maturities and durations. For example, (a) if interest rates go up by 1.0%, the price of a 4% coupon bond will decrease by approximately 1.0% for a bond with 1 year to maturity and approximately 4.4% for a bond with 5 years to maturity and (b) the price of a portfolio with a duration of 5 years would be expected to fall approximately 5.0% if interest rates rose by 1.0% and a portfolio with a duration of 2 years would be expected to fall approximately 2.0% if interest rates rose by 1.0%.

Prepayment Risk. During periods of declining interest rates, prepayment of debt securities usually accelerates. Prepayment may shorten the effective maturities of these securities, reducing their yield and market value, and the closed-end funds may have to reinvest at a lower interest rate.

Convertible Securities Risk. Convertible securities are hybrid securities that have characteristics of both fixed income and equity securities and are subject to risks associated with both fixed income and equity securities described below.
