Fair Value Measurements Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to
valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes as follows:
|
|
|
Level 1 unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access
|
|
|
Level 2 other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted
prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss
severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs)
|
|
|
Level 3 unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available
(including the Funds own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments)
|
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3
measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such
cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Funds policy, transfers between different levels of the
fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the
investment and derivative financial instruments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Funds policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial
instruments, please refer to the Funds most recent financial statements as contained in its semi-annual report.
The following tables

Derivative financial instruments are foreign currency exchange contracts, which are valued at the unrealized/depreciation on the instrument.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Certain of the Funds assets are held at carrying amount, which approximates fair value for financial reporting
purposes. As of July 31, 2013, foreign currency at value of $1,006,343 is categorized as Level 1 within the disclosure hierarchy.
There were
no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the period ended July 31, 2013.
A reconciliation of Level 3 investments is presented when
the Fund had a significant amount of Level 3 investments at the beginning and/or end of the period in relation to net assets. The following table is a reconciliation of Level 3 investments for which significant unobservable inputs were used in
determining fair value:
