Please note that ICI will be holding a "Spotlight on Closed-End Funds" event following the committee meeting beginning at 2 pm at the same venue. The event is designed to educate the general public about closed-end funds—how they operate, how they might benefit investors, and what some of their most pressing issues are. It will feature three panels, a fireside chat with Former Securities and Exchange Commissioner Robert Jackson, and a networking reception.

In addition, ICI will hold its annual Closed-End Fund Conference on November 17 at the Convene Center at One Liberty Plaza in New York City. The conference will feature industry experts discussing the most recent regulatory and market developments affecting closed-end funds. For more information about and to register for the Spotlight event and/or the annual conference, please visit ICI's website at www.ici.org/events/22-cef.
