The Fund is an unlisted interval fund with no secondary market, and shares are illiquid, redeemable only through limited quarterly repurchase offers (typically 5-25% of shares) that may be oversubscribed or suspended. It invests in complex CLO debt and equity with elevated credit risk and potential for loss. Leverage and distributions, including return of capital, may increase volatility and reduce net asset value. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Source: VanEck |
