• "The one advantage that a closed-end fund or ETF has over an open-end fund is that it cannot be forced to sell stocks because of redemptions. If shareholders in an open-end fund want to redeem more shares than the dividends the fund receives, the fund must sell stock and realize capital gains. In an ETF, shares are redeemed in-kind by institutions, so there is no tax consequence. In a closed-end fund, shareholders cannot have net redemptions; if they want to sell, they must find a buyer on the market."

USE CASES

• Activist prevention

• XFT Municipal Money Market Fund’s investment objective is to seek to provide current income that is exempt from federal personal income taxes while maintaining liquidity and a stable share price of $1. As such it is considered one of the most conservative investment options offered by XFT. Although the fund invests in short-term, high-quality securities, the amount of income that a shareholder may receive will be largely dependent on the current interest rate environment and the availability of eligible municipal securities. Investors in a higher tax bracket who have a short-term savings goal and seek a competitive tax-free yield may wish to consider this option.

• The Fund seeks to provide current income that is exempt from federal personal income taxes while maintaining liquidity and a stable share price of $1.

Investment Goal

• Maintain $1.00 share price
• Tax exemption
• Yield

• RIC status; avoids US income tax if income and gains are distributed.

OR

• Tax exemption via municipal bond portfolio

• Frequent flyer miles and reward points

• Distribute daily variable dollar amounts to maintain $1 NAV per managed distribution policy.

Methods

• Increase distribution if NAV > $1
• Distribute income to avoid NAV growth
• Return capital to offset premium
• Reduce distribution if NAV < $1

• You could lose money by investing in the Fund. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it cannot guarantee it will do so. The Fund may impose a fee upon sale of your shares. An investment in the Fund is not a bank account and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The Fund’s sponsor is not required to reimburse the Fund for losses, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the Fund at any time, including during periods of market stress.
