In order to provide liquidity to interval fund investors, interval funds conduct &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;periodic repurchase offers (to buy back interval fund shares), which can be as frequently as monthly but as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;infrequently as annually. As such, when the Fund invests in interval funds, while interval funds provide periodic &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;liquidity through regular repurchase offers, the Fund considers its investments in interval fund shares to be illiquid &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;and longer term investments. When the Fund invests in Columbia Credit Income Opportunities Fund, an affiliated &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;closed-end interval fund, the Fund is further limited in its ability to sell its shares in this underlying fund (back to the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;underlying fund), particularly because the underlying fund only offers to repurchase its shares from investors on a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;quarterly basis and where any such offer is over-subscribed, the Fund could be prevented from selling the full &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;amount of underlying fund shares that it desires to sell (because the Fund is an affiliate) at the most advantageous &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;time. In addition, the need to provide cash to shareholders on a periodic basis in connection with the repurchase of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;shares may cause an interval fund to sell its portfolio securities at disadvantageous times and/or may limit the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;ability of the interval fund to participate in new investment opportunities. Interval funds generally can invest a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;significant portion of their assets in illiquid securities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #003c78; font-family: arial; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 10pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  </cef:RiskTextBlock>
