Cevap

The correct statements are that closed-end fund shares trade in the secondary market between investors and that their market prices can trade at a premium or discount relative to Net Asset Value (NAV).
Closed-end funds trade on secondary market venues where supply and demand drive pricing, permitting market prices to trade above or below Net Asset Value.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the market structure of closed-end funds.
Closed-end funds issue a fixed number of shares in an initial public offering (IPO), after which shares trade among investors in the secondary market.
Understanding secondary market trading distinguishes closed-end funds from open-end funds.
2
Analyze how share prices are established for closed-end funds.
Prices are determined by supply and demand on secondary exchanges, allowing market prices to fluctuate independently of the underlying NAV, resulting in premiums or discounts.
Unlike open-end funds that execute transactions strictly at forward NAV, closed-end share prices depend on investor trading dynamics.
