What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting
Bulldog Investors plans to vote against XFLT's new sub-adviser unless shareholders can monetize near NAV. XFLT’s conversion to a perpetual fund in 2023 coincided with a NAV discount of over 20% after previously trading at a premium. If the July 30 vote fails, liquidation could unlock roughly 30% more value than today’s market price.
Bulldog Investors, with 310,000 XFLT shares, opposes the new sub-adviser without NAV monetization.
XFLT shifted from a term trust to a perpetual fund in Dec 2023; NAV premium turned to discount >20%.
July 30, 2026 special meeting will decide whether to hire another sub-adviser; wind-down risk looms.
