or "intervals." Legally classified as a closed-end fund, interval funds share
characteristics with mutual funds such as the fact that there is no trading

and sold (redeemed) with the fund. An investment in an interval fund is
much less liquid than shares in other types of investment companies, such
as mutual funds, closed-end funds, and ETFs.
