Dear Mr. Cowan:
We received your comments regarding the Registration Statement for the above captioned Trust. This letter serves to respond to your comments.
Comments
Portfolio
1.If the nature of the Trust's investments in distressed debt securities relate to certain of the ETFs purchasing distressed debt securities directly (rather than from merely holding bonds that become distressed after purchase), please add related strategy disclosure as appropriate.
Response:The Trust notes that it does not anticipate investing in ETFs that purchase distressed debt securities directly. The Trust further notes that distressed debt securities do not rise to a level of principal investment for the Trust. Nevertheless, the Trust believes the current risk disclosure is adequate and necessary for investor comprehension as the distressed debt securities risk disclosure is substantially related to the high-yield securities risk disclosure. Therefore, the Trust respectfully declines to add distressed debt securities to the “Portfolio Selection Process” section.
Risk Factors
2.If the Trust invests in emerging market issuers, please add relevant disclosure.
Response:If, based on the Trust’s final portfolio, the Trust has exposure to Funds that invest in emerging market companies, appropriate risk disclosure will be added to the Trust’s prospectus.
3.If the Funds held by the Trust invest in subprime residential mortgage loans, please add relevant risk disclosure.
Response:In accordance with the Staff’s comment, if the Trust’s final portfolio has exposure to funds that invest in subprime residential mortgage loans, appropriate disclosure will be added to the Trust’s prospectus.
We appreciate your prompt attention to this Registration Statement. If you have any questions or comments or would like to discuss our responses to your questions, please feel free to contact Brian D. Free at (312) 845-3017 or the undersigned at (312) 845-3721.
Very truly yours,
