Principal Investment Strategy

Selection Criteria

The sponsor has selected for the portfolio common stocks of 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 income taxes by investing in closed-end funds that invest in tax-free municipal bonds. Claymore Securities, Inc., through proprietary research and strategic alliances, will strive to select closed-end funds featuring the potential for income, diversification and overall liquidity.

This defined portfolio can provide:

  • a known portfolio of closed-end funds1
  • asset class diversification
  • professional selection and supervision
  • low minimum investment
  • daily liquidity2

1 As of date of deposit.

2 Investment return and principal value will fluctuate and units, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Income may be subject to state and local taxes as well as the alternative minimum tax. Capital gains, if any, may also be subject to tax. To the extent that any of the underlying closed-end funds invest in anything other than municipal securities, investors may be subject to federal taxes as well.

Risks and Other Considerations

As with all investments, you can lose money by investing in the Trust. The Trust also might not perform as well as you expect. This can happen for reasons such as these:

  • Stock 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.
  • The Trust includes securities of closed-end funds. Closed-end funds are actively managed investment companies that invest in various types of securities. Closed-end funds issue shares of common stock 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 portfolio when the underlying securities are redeemed or sold, 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 value of the fixed-income securities in the closed-end funds 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.
  • A closed-end fund or issuers of securities included in a closed-end fund may be unwilling or unable to make principal payments and/or to declare dividends in the future, may call a security before its stated maturity, or may reduce the level of dividends declared. In addition, a closed-end fund may also reduce its dividend. This may result in a reduction in the value of your units.
  • The financial condition of a closed-end fund or issuers of securities included in a closed-end fund may worsen or its credit ratings may drop, resulting in a reduction in the value of your units. In addition, the financial condition of a closed-end fund may also worsen. This may occur at any point in time, including during the primary offering period.
  • Certain closed-end funds held by the Trust may invest in bonds that are rated below investment grade and are considered to be “junk” securities. Below investment grade obligations are considered to be speculative and are subject to greater market and credit risks, and accordingly, the risk of nonpayment or default is higher than investment grade securities. In addition, such securities may be more sensitive to interest rate changes and more likely to receive early returns of principal.
  • Certain closed-end funds held by the Trust may invest in bonds 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 more subject to a greater risk of default than securities rated as investment grade by both Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s.
  • Closed-end funds held by the Trust invest in 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. Municipal bonds generally generate income exempt from federal income taxation, but may be subject to the alternative minimum tax. In addition, some or all of the income generated by a closed-end fund may not be exempt from regular federal or 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.
  • 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 continue to buy, the same securities even though the security’s outlook, rating, market value or yield may have changed.
  • In addition to expenses of the units of the Trust, the Trust is subject to various expenses of the closed-end funds.
  • The federal tax advice contained herein was not intended or written to be used, and it cannot be used by any taxpayer, for the purpose of avoiding penalties that may be imposed on the taxpayer; the advice was written to support the promotion or marketing of the matters addressed, and the taxpayers should seek advice based on the taxpayer’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

Please note that the sponsor may be engaged as a service provider to certain closed-end funds held by the Trust and therefore certain fees paid by the Trust to such closed-end funds will be paid to the sponsor for its services to such closed-end funds.

Please see the Trust prospectus for more complete risk information.
