The Fund pursues its objective primarily by investing in issues of preferred securities and debt securities that the Funds adviser, Innovative Portfolios, LLC (the Adviser), believes to be undervalued. In making this determination, the Adviser evaluates the fundamental characteristics of an issuer, including an issuers creditworthiness, and also takes into account prevailing market factors. In analyzing credit quality, the Adviser considers not only fundamental analysis, but also an issuers corporate and capital structure and the placement of the preferred or debt securities within that structure. In evaluating relative value, the Adviser also takes into account call, conversion and other structural security features, in addition to such factors as the likely directions of credit ratings and relative value versus other fixed-income security classes.
