Fair Value Hierarchy
 
The Trust categorizes its investments measured at fair value in three levels, based on the inputs and assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are as follows:
 
Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
 
Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
 
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Trust's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
 
 
 
The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Trust's net assets as of March 31, 2016:
