C. Derivatives — The Fund used derivative instruments including options, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swaps, in connection with its investment strategy. Derivative instruments may be used as substitutes for securities in which the Fund can invest, to hedge portfolio investments or to generate income or gain to the Fund. Derivatives may also be used to manage duration, sector and yield curve exposures and credit and spread volatility.
The Fund may be subject to various risks from the use of derivatives, including the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index; counterparty credit risk related to derivatives counterparties’ failure to perform under contract terms; liquidity risk related to the potential lack of a liquid market for these contracts allowing a Fund to close out its position(s); and documentation risk relating to disagreement over contract terms. Investing in certain derivatives also results in a form of leverage and as such, the Fund's risk of loss associated with these instruments may exceed their value.
The Fund is party to various derivative contracts governed by International Swaps and Derivatives Association master agreements (“ISDA agreements”). The Fund's ISDA agreements, which are separately negotiated with each dealer counterparty, may contain provisions allowing, absent other considerations, a counterparty to exercise rights, to the extent not otherwise waived, against the Fund in the event the Fund's net assets decline over time by a pre-determined percentage or fall below a pre-determined floor. The ISDA agreements may also contain provisions allowing, absent other conditions, the Fund to exercise rights, to the extent not otherwise waived, against a counterparty (e.g., decline in a counterparty’s credit rating below a specified level). Such rights for both a counterparty and the Fund often include the ability to terminate (i.e., close out) open contracts at prices which may favor a counterparty, which could have an adverse effect on the Fund. The ISDA agreements give the Fund and a counterparty the right, upon an event of default, to close out all transactions traded under such agreements and to net amounts owed or due across all transactions and offset such net payable or receivable against collateral posted to a segregated account by one party for the benefit of the other.
Counterparty credit risk may be mitigated to the extent a counterparty posts additional collateral for mark to market gains to the Fund.
Notes (1) — (3) below describe the various derivatives used by the Fund.
(1). Options — The Fund purchased and/or sold (“wrote”) put and call options on various instruments including currencies, futures, securities, options on indices and interest rate swaps (“swaptions”) to manage and hedge interest rate risks within its portfolio and also to gain long or short exposure to the underlying instrument, index, currency or rate. A purchaser of a put option has the right, but not the obligation, to sell the underlying instrument at an agreed upon price (“strike price”) to the option seller. A purchaser of a call option has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the underlying instrument at the strike price from the option seller. Swaptions and Eurodollar options are settled for cash.
Options Purchased — Premiums paid by the Fund for options purchased are included as an investment. The option is adjusted daily to reflect the current market value of the option and the change is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. If the option is allowed to expire, the Fund will lose the entire premium it paid and record a realized loss for the premium amount. Premiums paid for options purchased which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or will offset against the proceeds on the underlying investment transaction to determine the realized gain (loss) or cost basis of the underlying investment.
Options Written — Premiums received by the Fund for options written are adjusted daily to reflect the current market value of the option written and the change in market value is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Premiums received from options written that expire are treated as realized gains. If a written option is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss on options written based on whether the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium received. If a call option is exercised by the option buyer, the premium received by
