Risk Factors [Table Text Block] | PRINCIPAL RISK FACTORS General Risks Investment Risk An investment in the Fund involves a high degree of risk, including the risk that the Investor’s entire investment may be lost. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved. The Fund’s performance depends upon the Adviser’s selection of Investment Funds, the allocation of offering proceeds thereto and the performance of the Investment Funds. The Investment Funds’ investment activities involve the use of strategies and investment techniques with significant risk characteristics, including risks arising from national or international economic conditions, volatility in the global equity, currency, real estate and fixed -income -economic All investments made by the Investment Funds risk the loss of capital. The Investment Funds’ results may vary substantially over time. Investment Approach i.e. In contrast to most registered investment companies, the Investment Funds typically do not maintain their securities and other assets in the custody of a bank. It is anticipated that the Investment Funds generally will maintain custody of their assets with brokerage firms that do not separately segregate such customer assets as required in the case of registered investment companies. If such brokerage firm became bankrupt, the Fund could be more adversely affected than would be the case if custody of assets were maintained in accordance with the requirements applicable to registered investment companies. In addition, an Investment Fund Manager could convert assets committed to it by the Fund for its own use, or a custodian could convert assets committed to it by an Investment Fund Manager to the custodian’s own use. Investment decisions of the Investment Funds are made by the Investment Fund Managers independently of each other so that, at any particular time, one Investment Fund may be purchasing shares in an issuer that at the same time are being sold by another Investment Fund. Transactions of this sort could result in the Fund’s directly or indirectly incurring certain transaction costs without accomplishing any net investment result. Because the Fund may make additional investments in or withdrawals from Investment Funds only at certain times due to restrictions imposed by the Investment Funds, the Fund may, from time to time, have to invest some of its assets temporarily in money market securities, money market funds, or other similar types of investments. Investment Funds may permit or require that withdrawals or redemptions of interests be made in -kind -kind -called Market Risk -performance -wide -19 -Hamas -minute Limited Operating History Concentration Risk Available Information Unspecified Investments; Dependence on the Adviser -oriented -oriented Limitations on Transferability; Units Not Listed; No Market for Units Closed-End Fund; Liquidity Risks -diversified -end -term -end -end -end Repurchase Risks A 2% early repurchase fee will be charged by the Fund with respect to any repurchase of Units from an Investor at any time prior to the day immediately preceding the one -year -first Substantial requests for the Fund to repurchase Units could require the Fund to liquidate certain of its investments more rapidly than otherwise desirable for the purpose of raising cash to fund the repurchases. This could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Units. In addition, substantial repurchases of Units may decrease the Fund’s total assets and accordingly may increase its expenses as a percentage of average net assets. If a repurchase offer is oversubscribed by Investors who tender Units, the Fund may repurchase a pro rata portion of the Units tendered. Distributions In-Kind -kind -kind Leverage Utilized by the Investment Funds e.g. An Investment Fund’s use of short -term In the U.S. futures markets, margin deposits are typically required. These deposits may range from 1% to 15% of the value of the futures contracts being purchased or sold. With respect to other derivative markets, margin deposits may be lower or may not be required at all. Such low margin deposits indicate that any trading in these markets typically is accompanied by a high degree of leverage. A relatively small adverse price movement in a futures or forward contract may result in immediate and substantial losses to the investor where low margin deposits exist. There are no margin requirements in connection with Investment Fund purchases of options, because the option premium is paid for in full. The premiums for certain options traded on foreign exchanges may be paid for on margin. When an Investment Fund sells an option on a futures contract, it may be required to deposit margin in an amount that may be determined by the margin requirement established for the futures contract underlying the option and, in addition, an amount substantially equal to the current premium for the option. The margin requirements imposed on the writing of options can be higher than those imposed when dealing in the futures markets directly.

Valuation of the Fund’s Investments in Investment Funds -5 The valuation of the Fund’s investments in Investment Funds ordinarily is determined based upon valuations provided by the Investment Funds on a monthly basis. The Investment Funds may invest in certain securities and other financial instruments that do not have readily ascertainable market prices and will be valued by the respective Investment Fund Managers. In this regard, an Investment Fund may face a conflict of interest in valuing the securities, as their value may affect the Investment Fund’s compensation or its ability to raise additional funds. As part of its process for evaluating an Investment Fund for purchase, the Adviser reviews the Investment Fund’s valuation process and related controls. However, no assurances can be given regarding the valuation methodology or the sufficiency of systems utilized by any Investment Fund, the accuracy of the valuations provided by the Investment Funds, that the Investment Funds will comply with their own internal policies or procedures for keeping records or making valuations, or that the Investment Funds’ policies and procedures and systems will not change without notice to the Fund. As a result, valuations of the securities may be subjective and could prove in hindsight to have been wrong, potentially by significant amounts. The Adviser has established the Valuation Committee to oversee the valuation of the Fund’s investments pursuant to the Valuation Procedures. Moreover, neither the Valuation Committee nor the Adviser generally will have sufficient information in order to be able to confirm or review the accuracy of valuations provided by an Investment Fund. An Investment Fund’s information could be inaccurate due to fraudulent activity, misvaluation or inadvertent error. In any case, the Fund may not uncover errors for a significant period of time, if ever. Even if the Adviser elects to cause the Fund to sell, withdraw or redeem its interests in such an Investment Fund, the Fund may be unable to sell, withdraw or redeem such interests quickly, if at all, and could therefore be obligated to continue to hold such interests for an extended period of time. In such a case, the Investment Fund’s valuations of such interests could remain subject to such fraud or error, and the Valuation Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine to discount the value of the interests or value them at zero. Investors should be aware that situations involving uncertainties as to the valuations by Investment Funds could have a material adverse effect on the Fund if the Investment Fund Manager’s, the Adviser’s or the Fund’s judgments regarding valuations should prove incorrect. Persons who are unwilling to assume such risks should not make an investment in the Fund. Valuations Subject to Adjustment -end -end Reporting Requirements Indemnification of Investment Funds, Investment Fund Managers and Others These investments may be adversely affected by tax, legislative, regulatory, credit, political or government changes, interest rate increases and the financial conditions of issuers, which may pose credit risks that result in issuer default. Investment Strategy-Related Risks Certain of the principal risks of the Fund’s identified investment strategies (which are employed through the Investment Funds) are set forth below. Depending on economic and market conditions, or allocations to other Investment Funds or Investment Fund Managers, other risks may be present. Equity Hedged -specific -specific Relative Value Equity Market Neutral. -neutral -wide -wide -neutral -wide -wide Statistical Arbitrage. -driven -term -term -suited Fixed -Income Arbitrage. -income -U -backed -backed -income profound effects on interest and exchange rates that, in turn, affect prices in areas of the investment and trading activities of fixed -income Convertible Arbitrage. The price of a convertible bond, similar to other bonds, moves inversely with changes in interest rates. As a result, increases in interest rates could result in a loss on a position to the extent that the short position does not correspondingly depreciate in value. While Investment Fund Managers typically try to hedge interest rate risk via interest rate swaps and government securities, residual interest rate risk can adversely impact the portfolio. The price of convertible bonds also is sensitive to the perceived credit quality of the issuer. Convertible securities purchased by Investment Fund Managers will decline in value if there is deterioration in the perceived credit quality of the issuer or a widening of credit spreads and this decline in value may not be offset by gains on the corresponding short equity position. Convertible bond arbitrage portfolios typically are long volatility. Volatility risk is difficult to hedge since the strike price and, often, the maturity of the implied option are unknown. A decline in actual or implied stock volatility of the issuing companies can cause premiums to contract on the convertible bonds. Convertible arbitrageurs also are exposed to liquidity risk in the form of short squeezes in the underlying equities, or due to widening bid/ask spreads in the convertible bonds. Liquidity risk often can be exacerbated by margin calls since most arbitrageurs run leveraged portfolios. Convertible arbitrage strategies also are subject to risk due to inadequate or misleading disclosure concerning the securities involved. Also, in the absence of anti -dilution Relative Value Credit. Event-Driven -offs subjects of proxy contests, in the hope that the resulting changes in management may improve the company’s performance or lead to sale of either the company or its assets. If the incumbent management defeats such an attempt, or if the incoming management team is unable to achieve its goals, the market price of the company’s securities will typically fall, which may cause the Investment Fund to sustain a loss. In addition, companies involved in acquisition attempts via proxy fights may be the subject of litigation, which typically involves significant uncertainties and may impose additional costs and expenses upon the company, the participating Investment Fund and, indirectly, the Fund.

The measure of insolvency for these purposes will vary. Generally, an issuer would be considered insolvent at a particular time if the sum of its debts were then greater than all of its property at a fair valuation, or if the present fair saleable value of its assets were then less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liabilities on its existing debts as they became absolute and matured. There can be no assurance as to what standard a court would apply in order to determine whether the issuer was “insolvent” after giving effect to the incurrence of the indebtedness in which the Investment Funds invested or that, regardless of the method of valuation, a court would not determine that the issuer was “insolvent” upon giving effect to such incurrence. In addition, in the event of the insolvency of an issuer of indebtedness in which an Investment Fund invests, payments made on such indebtedness could be subject to avoidance as a “preference” if made within a certain period of time (which may be as long as one year) before insolvency. In general, if payments on indebtedness are avoidable, whether as fraudulent conveyances or preferences, such payments can be recaptured from the Investment Funds. There can be no assurance as to whether any lending institution or other party from which an Investment Fund may acquire indebtedness engaged in any conduct that would form the basis for a successful cause of action based upon fraudulent conveyance, preference or equitable subordination (or any other conduct that would subject such indebtedness and the Investment Fund to insolvency laws) and, if it did, as to whether any creditor claims could be asserted in a U.S. court (or in the courts of any other country) against that Investment Fund. Frequently, a debtor seeking to reorganize under U.S. federal bankruptcy law will obtain a “first day” order from the bankruptcy court limiting trading in claims against, and shares of, the debtor in order to maximize the debtor’s ability to utilize net operating losses following a successful reorganization. Such an order could in some circumstances adversely affect an Investment Fund’s ability to successfully implement an investment strategy with respect to a bankrupt company.

If during such a period adverse market conditions were to develop, the Investment Fund Manager might obtain a less favorable price than the prevailing price when it decided to sell. Investment Fund Managers may be unable to sell restricted and other illiquid securities at the most opportune times or at prices approximating the value at which they purchased such securities. An Investment Fund’s portfolio may include a number of investments for which no market exists and which have substantial restrictions on transferability.

A dollar roll is similar except that the counterparty is not obligated to return the same securities as those originally sold by the Investment Fund but only securities that are “substantially identical.” Reverse repurchase agreements and dollar rolls may be considered forms of borrowing for some purposes.

Some of these companies may be undercapitalized or regarded as developmental stage companies, without revenues or operating income, or close to achieving revenues or operating income. In addition, an investment in an initial public offering may have a disproportionate impact on the performance of an Investment Fund that does not yet have a substantial amount of assets. This impact on an Investment Fund’s performance may decrease as an Investment Fund’s assets increase.

Forward Contracts. Swap Agreements. -term -term Swap agreements will tend to shift an Investment Fund’s investment exposure from one type of investment to another. Depending on how they are used, swap agreements may increase or decrease the overall volatility of an Investment Fund’s portfolio. The most significant factor in the performance of swap agreements is the change in the specific interest rate, currency, individual equity values or other factors that determine the amounts of payments due to and from an Investment Fund. If a swap agreement calls for payments by an Investment Fund, the Investment Fund must be prepared to make such payments when due. In addition, the value of a swap agreement is likely to decline if the counterparty’s creditworthiness declines. Such a decrease in value might cause the Investment Fund to incur losses. Swap agreements can take many different forms and are known by a variety of names. An Investment Fund is not limited to any particular form of swap agreement if its Investment Fund Manager determines that other forms are consistent with that Investment Fund’s investment objectives and policies. Specific swap agreements (and options thereon) include currency swaps; index swaps; interest rate swaps (including interest rate locks, caps, floors and collars); credit default swaps; inflation swaps; and total return swaps (including equity swaps). • Currency Swap Transactions • Index Swap Transactions • Interest Rate Swap Transactions -current • Credit Default Swap Transactions -front • Inflation Swap Transactions (or counterparty) based on the yield difference between Treasuries and TIPS of the same maturity.

In situations where an Investment Fund is required to post margin or other collateral with a counterparty, the counterparty may fail to segregate the collateral or may commingle the collateral with the counterparty’s own assets. As a result, in the event of the counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency, the Investment Fund’s collateral may be subject to the conflicting claims of the counterparty’s creditors and the Investment Fund may be exposed to the risk of being treated as a general unsecured creditor of the counterparty, rather than as the owner of the collateral. Investment Funds are subject to the risk that issuers of the instruments in which they invest and trade may default on their obligations, and that certain events may occur that have an immediate and significant adverse effect on the value of those instruments. There can be no assurance that an issuer will not default, or that an event that has an immediate and significant adverse effect on the value of an instrument will not occur, and that the Investment Fund will not sustain a loss on a transaction as a result.

However, Investment Funds generally are not obligated to disclose the contents of their portfolios. This lack of transparency may make it difficult for the Adviser to monitor the sources of the Fund’s income and the diversification of its assets, and otherwise comply with Subchapter M of the Code, and ultimately may limit the universe of Investment Funds in which the Fund can invest or the amount that may be invested in certain Investment Funds. Furthermore, although the Fund expects to receive information from each Investment Fund Manager regarding its investment performance on a regular basis, in most cases there is little or no means of independently verifying this information. If, before the end of any quarter of its taxable year, the Fund believes that it may fail the asset diversification requirement of RIC qualification, the Fund may seek to take certain actions to avert such a failure. However, the action frequently taken by RICs to avert such a failure, the disposition of non -diversified -day -diversified -level i.e. In addition, the Fund may directly or indirectly invest in Investment Funds located outside the United States. Such Investment Funds may be subject to withholding taxes and other taxes in such jurisdictions with respect to their investments. In general, a U.S. person will not be able to claim a foreign tax credit or deduction for foreign taxes paid by the Fund. Further, adverse United States tax consequences can be associated with certain foreign investments, including potential United States withholding taxes on foreign investment entities with respect to their United States investments (including those described in the Confidential Memorandum) and potential adverse tax consequences associated with investments in any foreign corporations that are characterized for U.S. federal income tax purposes as “controlled foreign corporations” or “passive foreign investment companies.” Under the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan, distributions paid by the Fund will be automatically reinvested in additional Units unless an Investor “opts out” (elects not to reinvest in Units). The tax treatment of dividends and capital gain distributions will be the same whether the Investor takes them in cash or reinvests them to purchase additional Units. Investors may opt out initially, and thereafter may change their election at any time, by contacting the Administrator. Units purchased by reinvestment will be issued at their net asset value on the ex -dividend -3140 For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Fund generally will be required to include in income certain amounts that the Fund has not yet received in cash, such as original issue discount (“OID”), which may arise, for example, if the Fund receives warrants in connection with the making of a loan or “payment -in-kind loan principal balance and due at the end of the loan term.

A change in the current tax laws under the Code or other applicable tax rules governing IRAs and their investments (including, without limitation, Code provisions governing the maximum contributions that may be made to IRAs, the types of investments that IRAs may hold, the maximum amount that may be invested in IRAs and/or the annual minimum required distributions that an IRA must make) could result in adverse consequences for IRA investors (and their owners and beneficiaries).

However, no assurances can be given regarding the valuation methodology or the sufficiency of systems utilized by any Investment Fund, the accuracy of the valuations provided by the Investment Funds, that the Investment Funds will comply with their own internal policies or procedures for keeping records or making valuations, or that the Investment Funds’ policies and procedures and systems will not change without notice to the Fund. As a result, valuations of the securities may be subjective and could prove in hindsight to have been wrong, potentially by significant amounts. The Adviser has established the Valuation Committee to oversee the valuation of the Fund’s investments pursuant to the Valuation Procedures. Moreover, neither the Valuation Committee nor the Adviser generally will have sufficient information in order to be able to confirm or review the accuracy of valuations provided by an Investment Fund. An Investment Fund’s information could be inaccurate due to fraudulent activity, misvaluation or inadvertent error. In any case, the Fund may not uncover errors for a significant period of time, if ever. Even if the Adviser elects to cause the Fund to sell, withdraw or redeem its interests in such an Investment Fund, the Fund may be unable to sell, withdraw or redeem such interests quickly, if at all, and could therefore be obligated to continue to hold such interests for an extended period of time. In such a case, the Investment Fund’s valuations of such interests could remain subject to such fraud or error, and the Valuation Committee, in its sole discretion, may determine to discount the value of the interests or value them at zero. Investors should be aware that situations involving uncertainties as to the valuations by Investment Funds could have a material adverse effect on the Fund if the Investment Fund Manager’s, the Adviser’s or the Fund’s judgments regarding valuations should prove incorrect.

General Description of Registrant [Abstract] | |
Risk [Text Block] | Investment Risk An investment in the Fund involves a high degree of risk, including the risk that the Investor’s entire investment may be lost. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved. The Fund’s performance depends upon the Adviser’s selection of Investment Funds, the allocation of offering proceeds thereto and the performance of the Investment Funds. The Investment Funds’ investment activities involve the use of strategies and investment techniques with significant risk characteristics, including risks arising from national or international economic conditions, volatility in the global equity, currency, real estate and fixed -income -economic All investments made by the Investment Funds risk the loss of capital. The Investment Funds’ results may vary substantially over time. Investment Approach |
Investment Approach [Member] | |
General Description of Registrant [Abstract] | |
Risk [Text Block] | Investment Approach i.e. In contrast to most registered investment companies, the Investment Funds typically do not maintain their securities and other assets in the custody of a bank. It is anticipated that the Investment Funds generally will maintain custody of their assets with brokerage firms that do not separately segregate such customer assets as required in the case of registered investment companies. If such brokerage firm became bankrupt, the Fund could be more adversely affected than would be the case if custody of assets were maintained in accordance with the requirements applicable to registered investment companies. In addition, an Investment Fund Manager could convert assets committed to it by the Fund for its own use, or a custodian could convert assets committed to it by an Investment Fund Manager to the custodian’s own use. Investment decisions of the Investment Funds are made by the Investment Fund Managers independently of each other so that, at any particular time, one Investment Fund may be purchasing shares in an issuer that at the same time are being sold by another Investment Fund. Transactions of this sort could result in the Fund’s directly or indirectly incurring certain transaction costs without accomplishing any net investment result. Because the Fund may make additional investments in or withdrawals from Investment Funds only at certain times due to restrictions imposed by the Investment Funds, the Fund may, from time to time, have to invest some of its assets temporarily in money market securities, money market funds, or other similar types of investments. Investment Funds may permit or require that withdrawals or redemptions of interests be made in -kind -kind -called |

Risk [Text Block] | Leverage Utilized by the Investment Funds e.g. An Investment Fund’s use of short -term In the U.S. futures markets, margin deposits are typically required. These deposits may range from 1% to 15% of the value of the futures contracts being purchased or sold. With respect to other derivative markets, margin deposits may be lower or may not be required at all. Such low margin deposits indicate that any trading in these markets typically is accompanied by a high degree of leverage. A relatively small adverse price movement in a futures or forward contract may result in immediate and substantial losses to the investor where low margin deposits exist. There are no margin requirements in connection with Investment Fund purchases of options, because the option premium is paid for in full. The premiums for certain options traded on foreign exchanges may be paid for on margin. When an Investment Fund sells an option on a futures contract, it may be required to deposit margin in an amount that may be determined by the margin requirement established for the futures contract underlying the option and, in addition, an amount substantially equal to the current premium for the option. The margin requirements imposed on the writing of options can be higher than those imposed when dealing in the futures markets directly.

General Description of Registrant [Abstract] | |
Risk [Text Block] | Valuation of the Fund’s Investments in Investment Funds -5 The valuation of the Fund’s investments in Investment Funds ordinarily is determined based upon valuations provided by the Investment Funds on a monthly basis. The Investment Funds may invest in certain securities and other financial instruments that do not have readily ascertainable market prices and will be valued by the respective Investment Fund Managers. In this regard, an Investment Fund may face a conflict of interest in valuing the securities, as their value may affect the Investment Fund’s compensation or its ability to raise additional funds. As part of its process for evaluating an Investment Fund for purchase, the Adviser reviews the Investment Fund’s valuation process and related controls.

The price of a convertible bond, similar to other bonds, moves inversely with changes in interest rates. As a result, increases in interest rates could result in a loss on a position to the extent that the short position does not correspondingly depreciate in value. While Investment Fund Managers typically try to hedge interest rate risk via interest rate swaps and government securities, residual interest rate risk can adversely impact the portfolio. The price of convertible bonds also is sensitive to the perceived credit quality of the issuer. Convertible securities purchased by Investment Fund Managers will decline in value if there is deterioration in the perceived credit quality of the issuer or a widening of credit spreads and this decline in value may not be offset by gains on the corresponding short equity position. Convertible bond arbitrage portfolios typically are long volatility. Volatility risk is difficult to hedge since the strike price and, often, the maturity of the implied option are unknown. A decline in actual or implied stock volatility of the issuing companies can cause premiums to contract on the convertible bonds. Convertible arbitrageurs also are exposed to liquidity risk in the form of short squeezes in the underlying equities, or due to widening bid/ask spreads in the convertible bonds. Liquidity risk often can be exacerbated by margin calls since most arbitrageurs run leveraged portfolios. Convertible arbitrage strategies also are subject to risk due to inadequate or misleading disclosure concerning the securities involved. Also, in the absence of anti -dilution Relative Value Credit. Event-Driven -offs subjects of proxy contests, in the hope that the resulting changes in management may improve the company’s performance or lead to sale of either the company or its assets. If the incumbent management defeats such an attempt, or if the incoming management team is unable to achieve its goals, the market price of the company’s securities will typically fall, which may cause the Investment Fund to sustain a loss. In addition, companies involved in acquisition attempts via proxy fights may be the subject of litigation, which typically involves significant uncertainties and may impose additional costs and expenses upon the company, the participating Investment Fund and, indirectly, the Fund.

The measure of insolvency for these purposes will vary. Generally, an issuer would be considered insolvent at a particular time if the sum of its debts were then greater than all of its property at a fair valuation, or if the present fair saleable value of its assets were then less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liabilities on its existing debts as they became absolute and matured. There can be no assurance as to what standard a court would apply in order to determine whether the issuer was “insolvent” after giving effect to the incurrence of the indebtedness in which the Investment Funds invested or that, regardless of the method of valuation, a court would not determine that the issuer was “insolvent” upon giving effect to such incurrence. In addition, in the event of the insolvency of an issuer of indebtedness in which an Investment Fund invests, payments made on such indebtedness could be subject to avoidance as a “preference” if made within a certain period of time (which may be as long as one year) before insolvency. In general, if payments on indebtedness are avoidable, whether as fraudulent conveyances or preferences, such payments can be recaptured from the Investment Funds. There can be no assurance as to whether any lending institution or other party from which an Investment Fund may acquire indebtedness engaged in any conduct that would form the basis for a successful cause of action based upon fraudulent conveyance, preference or equitable subordination (or any other conduct that would subject such indebtedness and the Investment Fund to insolvency laws) and, if it did, as to whether any creditor claims could be asserted in a U.S. court (or in the courts of any other country) against that Investment Fund. Frequently, a debtor seeking to reorganize under U.S. federal bankruptcy law will obtain a “first day” order from the bankruptcy court limiting trading in claims against, and shares of, the debtor in order to maximize the debtor’s ability to utilize net operating losses following a successful reorganization.

If a swap agreement calls for payments by an Investment Fund, the Investment Fund must be prepared to make such payments when due. In addition, the value of a swap agreement is likely to decline if the counterparty’s creditworthiness declines. Such a decrease in value might cause the Investment Fund to incur losses.

A reverse repurchase agreement involves the sale of a security by an Investment Fund and its agreement to repurchase the instrument at a specified time and price. A counterparty to a reverse repurchase agreement may be unable or unwilling to complete the transaction as scheduled, which may result in losses to the Investment Fund. A dollar roll is similar except that the counterparty is not obligated to return the same securities as those originally sold by the Investment Fund but only securities that are “substantially identical.” Reverse repurchase agreements and dollar rolls may be considered forms of borrowing for some purposes. |

Furthermore, although the Fund expects to receive information from each Investment Fund Manager regarding its investment performance on a regular basis, in most cases there is little or no means of independently verifying this information.

Further, adverse United States tax consequences can be associated with certain foreign investments, including potential United States withholding taxes on foreign investment entities with respect to their United States investments (including those described in the Confidential Memorandum) and potential adverse tax consequences associated with investments in any foreign corporations that are characterized for U.S. federal income tax purposes as “controlled foreign corporations” or “passive foreign investment companies.” Under the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan, distributions paid by the Fund will be automatically reinvested in additional Units unless an Investor “opts out” (elects not to reinvest in Units).
