The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. 1. Purpose The Commission has approved a proposed rule change relating to listing and trading on the Exchange of shares (‘‘Shares’’) of the AdvisorShares Sage Core Reserves ETF (the ‘‘Fund’’) under NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8.600,4 which governs the listing and trading of Managed Fund Shares.5 The Fund’s 4 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 71263 (January 9, 2014), 79 FR 2715 (January 15, 2014) (SR–NYSEArca–2013–121) (the ‘‘Prior Order’’). The notice with respect to the Prior Order was published in Securities Exchange Act Release No. 70902 (November 19, 2013), 78 FR 70370 (November 25, 2013) (‘‘Prior Notice’’ and, together with the Prior Order, the ‘‘Prior Release’’). 5 A Managed Fund Share is a security that represents an interest in an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–1) (‘‘1940 Act’’) organized as an open-end investment company or similar entity that invests in a portfolio of securities selected by its investment adviser consistent with its PO 00000 Frm 00106 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 32187 Shares are currently listed and traded on the Exchange under NYSE Arca Equities Rule 8.600. The Shares are offered by AdvisorShares Trust (the ‘‘Trust’’), a statutory trust organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and registered with the Commission as an open-end management investment company.6 The investment adviser to the Fund is AdvisorShares Investments, LLC (the ‘‘Adviser’’). Sage Advisory Services Ltd. Co. (‘‘Sub-Adviser’’) is the Fund’s subadviser and provides day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. According to the Registration Statement, the Fund will seek to preserve capital while maximizing income. Under normal market conditions, the Sub-Adviser will seek to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by investing at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets in a variety of fixed income securities issued by U.S. and foreign issuers. Such fixed income securities will be U.S. dollar-denominated investment grade debt securities rated Baa or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (‘‘Moody’s’’), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (‘‘S&P’’) or Fitch, Inc. (‘‘Fitch’’), or, if unrated, determined by the Sub-Adviser to be of comparable quality.7 The Fund may retain a security if its rating falls below investment grade and the Sub-Adviser determines that retention of the security is in the Fund’s best interest. The Exchange notes that the Fund’s investment portfolio of fixed income securities will meet certain criteria for index-based, fixed income exchange-traded funds (‘‘ETFs’’) contained in NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), Commentary .02.8 The Fund may invest, among other securities and financial instruments, in investment objectives and policies. In contrast, an open-end investment company that issues Investment Company Units, listed and traded on the Exchange under NYSE Arca Equities Rule 5.2(j)(3), seeks to provide investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance of a specific foreign or domestic stock index, fixed income securities index or combination thereof. 6 The Trust is registered under the 1940 Act. On August 13, 2013, the Trust filed with the Commission an amendment to its registration statement on Form N–1A under the Securities Act of 1933 (15 U.S.C. 77a) (‘‘Securities Act’’), and under the 1940 Act relating to the Fund (File Nos. 333–157876 and 811–22110) (‘‘Registration Statement’’). The description of the operation of the Trust and the Fund herein is based, in part, on the Registration Statement. In addition, the Commission has issued an order granting certain exemptive relief to the Trust under the 1940 Act. See Investment Company Act Release No. 29291 (May 28, 2010) (File No. 812–13677) (‘‘Exemptive Order’’). 7 See note 9 of the Prior Notice. 8 See note 10 of the Prior Notice.
