net asset value financial

"the Fund will begin to calculate its net asset value on February 12, 2026"

Net asset value is the total value of an investment fund's assets minus any liabilities, divided by the number of shares or units outstanding. It represents the per-share worth of the fund, similar to how the value of a house is determined by its total worth after debts are subtracted. Investors use it to gauge the true value of their holdings and to compare different investment options.

closed-end investment company financial

"The Fund is a diversified closed-end investment company, which seeks long term capital"

A closed-end investment company is a pooled investment fund that issues a fixed number of shares in a one-time offering and then has those shares bought and sold on an exchange like a stock; a professional manager runs the portfolio of assets. It matters to investors because the market price can move above or below the value of the underlying holdings, affecting returns and income, and shares may be less flexible to issue or redeem compared with open-ended funds—think of buying a slice of a privately baked pie whose market price can differ from the pie’s actual ingredients value.
