18.105. Regulation and Government Intervention Risk

The recent instability in the financial markets discussed above has led certain governments to take a number of unprecedented actions designed to support certain financial institutions and segments of the financial markets that have experienced extreme volatility, and in some cases a lack of liquidity, including through direct purchases of equity and debt securities. Federal, state, and other governments, their regulatory agencies or self-regulatory organizations may take actions that affect the regulation of the issuers in which the Investment Compartment invests in ways that are unforeseeable. Legislation or regulation may also change the way in which the Investment Compartment is regulated. Such legislation or regulation could limit or preclude the Investment Compartment’s ability to achieve its investment objectives.
