TO: CLOSED-END INVESTMENT COMPANY COMMITTEE No. 4-05
RE: CLOSED-END INVESTMENT COMPANY COMMITTEE SURVEY RESULTS
We recently asked Closed-End Investment Company Committee members to complete a
survey to provide feedback on various aspects of the Committee’s meetings.* The survey
reflected a high level of satisfaction with the committee meetings, including topics included on
meeting agendas, the length of the meetings, and the number of meetings per year. The survey
results are summarized more fully in the attached chart. Members also provided helpful
suggestions for improvements.
Based on the survey, we plan to periodically invite an outside speaker, such as a senior
SEC staff member, to address the Committee. In addition, starting in April 2005, we will email
the meeting materials in advance of the meeting.
We thank you for taking the time to provide us with your input.
