Principal Investment Strategy

Under normal circumstances, the trust will invest at least 80% of the value of its assets in closed-end investment companies (“Closed-End Funds”) and shares of exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) that invest substantially all of their assets in California municipal bonds, the income from which is exempt from regular federal and California state income taxes. The trust contains common shares of Closed-End Funds and ETFs, the majority of which contain portfolios that invest substantially all of their assets in California municipal bonds, which are rated investment-grade by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

Selection Criteria

The sponsor has selected for the portfolio Closed-End Funds believed to have the best potential to achieve the trust’s investment objective. The trust seeks to provide monthly income that is exempt from federal and California state income taxes by investing in Closed-End Funds that invest in California municipal bonds. However, the trust may invest up to 20% of the value of its assets in Closed-End Funds that invest substantially all of their assets in municipal bonds that are exempt from regular federal income tax but not from California state income tax. Municipal bonds generally offer investors the potential for stable tax-free income. However, a portion of the income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax on individuals as well as federal, state and local taxes. For tax years beginning after December 31, 2022, exempt-interest dividends may affect the corporate alternative minimum tax for certain corporations.

When selecting Closed-End Funds for inclusion in this portfolio the sponsor looks at numerous factors. These factors include, but are not limited to:

  • Investment Objective. The sponsor favors funds that have a clear investment objective in line with the trust’s objective and, based upon a review of publicly available information, appear to be maintaining it.
  • Premium/Discount. The sponsor favors funds that are trading at a discount relative to their peers and relative to their long-term average.
  • Consistent Dividend. The sponsor favors funds that have a history of paying a consistent and competitive dividend.
  • Performance. The sponsor favors funds that have a history of strong relative performance (based on market price and net asset value) when compared to their peers and an applicable benchmark.

  • Liquidity. The sponsor selects ETFs that demonstrate adequate liquidity for the trust’s needs.
  • Investment Objective. The sponsor favors ETFs that have a clear investment objective in line with the trust’s objective and, based upon a review of publicly available information, appear to be maintaining it.
As of the Inception Date, the ETFs comprised approximately 30% of the trust’s portfolio.
 

Risks and Other Considerations

As with all investments, you may lose some or all of your investment in the trust. No assurance can be given that the trust’s investment objective will be achieved. The trust also might not perform as well as you expect. This can happen for reasons such as these:
  • Securities prices can be volatile. The value of your investment may fall over time. Market value fluctuates in response to various factors. These can include stock market movements, purchases or sales of securities by the trust, government policies, litigation, and changes in interest rates, inflation, the financial condition of the securities’ issuer or even perceptions of the issuer. Changes in legal, political, regulatory, tax and economic conditions may cause fluctuations in markets and securities prices, which could negatively impact the value of the trust. Additionally, events such as war, terrorism, natural and environmental disasters and the spread of infectious illnesses or other public health emergencies may adversely affect the economy, various markets and issuers. For example, the ongoing conflicts in the Ukraine and Gaza, the outbreak of the coronavirus disease, and federal regulatory restrictions on U.S. corporate issuer investments in China and Russia have all recently affected issuers and markets. The complete economic impact of any such future event may be difficult or impossible to predict. Units of the trust are not deposits of any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
  • The trust includes Closed-End Funds. Closed-End Funds are actively managed investment companies that invest in various types of securities. Closed-End Funds issue common shares that are traded on a securities exchange. Closed-End Funds are subject to various risks, including management’s ability to meet the Closed-End Fund’s investment objective and to manage the Closed- End Fund’s portfolio during periods of market turmoil and as investors’ perceptions regarding Closed-End Funds or their underlying investments change. Closed-End Funds are not redeemable at the option of the shareholder and they may trade in the market at a discount to their net asset value. Closed-End Funds may also employ the use of leverage which increases risk and volatility.
  • The trust invests in shares of ETFs. ETFs are investment pools that hold other securities. The ETFs in the trust may be passively-managed index funds that seek to replicate the performance or composition of a recognized securities index. ETFs are subject to various risks, including management’s ability to meet the fund’s investment objective. Shares of ETFs may trade at a premium or discount from their net asset value in the secondary market. If the trust has to sell an ETF share when the share is trading at a discount, the trust will receive a price that is less than the ETF’s net asset value. This risk is separate and distinct from the risk that the net asset value of the ETF shares may decrease. The amount of such discount from net asset value is subject to change from time to time in response to various factors. The underlying ETF has management and operating expenses. Consequently, you will bear not only your share of your trust’s expenses, but also the expenses of the underlying ETFs. By investing in ETFs, the trust incurs greater expenses than you would incur if you invested directly in the ETFs.
  • The trust is subject to an ETF’s index correlation risk. To the extent that an underlying ETF is an index tracking ETF, index correlation risk is the risk that the performance of an ETF will vary from the actual performance of the fund’s target index, known as “tracking error.” This can happen due to fund expenses, transaction costs, market impact, corporate actions (such as mergers and spin-offs) and timing variances.
  • The Closed-End Funds and ETFs are subject to annual fees and expenses, including a management fee. Unitholders of the trust will bear these fees in addition to the fees and expenses of the trust. See “Fees and Expenses” for additional information.
  • The value of the fixed-income securities in the Closed-End Funds and ETFs will generally fall if interest rates, in general, rise. Typically, fixed-income securities with longer periods before maturity are more sensitive to interest rate changes. The trust may be subject to greater risk of rising interest rates than would normally be the case due to the current economic environment and the effect of potential government fiscal policy initiatives and resulting market reaction to those initiatives.
  • A Closed-End Fund, ETF or an issuer of securities held by a Closed- End Fund or ETF may be unwilling or unable to make principal payments and/or to declare distributions in the future, may call a security before its stated maturity, or may reduce the level of distributions declared. Issuers may suspend dividends during the life of the trust. This may result in a reduction in the value of your units.
  • The financial condition of a Closed-End Fund, ETF or an issuer of securities held by a Closed-End Fund or ETF may worsen, resulting in a reduction in the value of your units. This may occur at any point in time, including during the primary offering period.
  • Certain Closed-End Funds or ETFs held by the trust may invest in securities that are rated as investment-grade by only one rating agency. As a result, such split-rated securities may have more speculative characteristics and are subject to a greater risk of default than securities rated as investment-grade by more than one rating agency.
  • All of the Closed-End Funds and ETFs held by the trust invest in municipal bonds, and the majority of these Closed-End Funds and ETFs invest substantially all of their assets in California municipal bonds. Municipal bonds are long-term fixed rate debt obligations that decline in value with increases in interest rates, an issuer’s worsening financial condition, a drop in bond ratings or when there is a decrease in the federal income tax rate. Typically, bonds with longer periods before maturity are more sensitive to interest rate changes. Additionally, legislative changes, the strength of state and local economies, business development and the condition of the securities markets may negatively affect the value the municipal bonds. Municipal bonds may also be called or redeemed prior to their stated maturity, an event which is more likely to occur when interest rates fall. In such an occurrence, a Closed-End Fund or ETF in which the trust invests may not be able to reinvest the money it receives in other bonds that have as high a yield or as long a maturity. Municipal bonds generally generate income exempt from federal income taxation, but may be subject to the alternative minimum tax on individuals. For tax years beginning after December 31, 2022, interest on the bonds may affect the corporate alternative minimum tax for certain corporations. In addition, some or all of the income generated by a Closed-End Fund or ETF may not be exempt from regular federal or California state income taxes and as a result, the related income paid by the trust may also be subject to regular federal and state income taxes. Capital gains, if any, may be subject to tax. Because the Closed-End Funds and ETFs are concentrated in bonds of issuers located in California, there may be more risk than if the bonds were issued by issuers located in several states.
  • The trust is susceptible California state specific risk as the majority of the Closed-End Funds and ETFs in which the trust invests invest substantially all of their assets in California municipal bonds. Because the trust includes Closed-End Funds and ETFs containing bonds of issuers located in California, there may be more risk than if the bonds were issued by issuers located in several states. The financial condition of California is affected by various national and local, economic, social and environmental policies and conditions and may have an effect on the value of the units in the trust. Additionally, Constitutional and statutory limitations imposed on the State and its local governments concerning taxes, bond indebtedness and other matters may constrain the revenue-generating capacity of the State and its local governments and, therefore, the ability of the issuers of the bonds to satisfy their obligations.
  • Certain ETFs held by the trust invest in securities that are rated below investment-grade and are considered to be “junk” securities. Below investment-grade obligations are considered to be primarily speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to make principal and interest payments and may be more volatile than higher rated securities of similar maturity. Additionally, they are subject to greater market, credit and liquidity risks than investment-grade securities. Accordingly, the risk of non-payment or default is higher than with investment-grade securities. In addition, such securities may be more sensitive to interest rate changes and more likely to receive early returns of principal in falling rate environments.
  • Economic conditions may lead to limited liquidity and greater volatility. The markets for fixed- income securities, such as those held by certain Closed-End Funds and ETFs, may experience periods of illiquidity and volatility. General market uncertainty and consequent repricing risk have led to market imbalances of sellers and buyers, which in turn have resulted in significant valuation uncertainties in a variety of fixed- income securities. These conditions resulted, and in many cases continue to result in, greater volatility, less liquidity, widening credit spreads and a lack of price transparency, with many debt securities remaining illiquid and of uncertain value. These market conditions may make valuation of some of the securities held by a Closed-End Fund or ETF uncertain and/or result in sudden and significant valuation increases or declines in its holdings.
  • Share prices or distributions on the securities in the trust may decline during the life of the trust. There is no guarantee that share prices of the securities in the trust will not decline and that the issuers of the securities will declare distributions in the future and, if declared, whether they will remain at current levels or increase over time.
  • The trust may be susceptible to potential risks through breaches in cybersecurity. A breach in cybersecurity refers to both intentional and unintentional events that may cause the trust to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption or lose operational capacity. Such events could cause the sponsor of the trust to incur regulatory penalties, reputational damage, additional compliance costs associated with corrective measures and/or financial loss. In addition, cybersecurity breaches of the trust’s third-party service providers, or issuers in which the trust invests, can also subject the trust to many of the same risks associated with direct cybersecurity breaches.
  • The trust is subject to risks arising from various operational factors and their service providers. Operational factors include, but not limited to, human error, processing and communication errors, errors of the trust’s service providers, counterparties or other third-parties, failed or inadequate processes and technology or systems failures. Additionally, the trust may be subject to the risk that a service provider may not be willing or able to perform their duties as required or contemplated by their agreements with the trust. Although the trust seeks to reduce these operational risks through controls and procedures, there is no way to completely protect against such risks.
  • Inflation may lead to a decrease in the value of assets or income from investments.
  • The sponsor does not actively manage the portfolio. The trust will generally hold, and may, when creating additional units, continue to buy, the same securities even though a security’s outlook, market value or yield may have changed.
