About the Industry

The U.S. closed-end fund industry is comprised of over 650 funds with a market capitalization approaching $300 billion.   In fact, nearly 1 in 6 stocks listed on the NYSE is a closed-end fund.  Closed-end funds are investment companies like mutual funds and Exchange Traded Funds (ETF’s) except a fixed amount of assets is raised at inception in an initial public offering.  Closed-end funds are bought and sold on exchanges and, unlike mutual funds, do not redeem shares at net asset value. 

Thomas J. Herzfeld Advisors, Inc. provides comprehensive research on the industry in its monthly report, The Investor's Guide to Closed-End Funds, which is available by subscription.
