Closed End Investment

What does it mean?
When an investment company issues a fixed number of shares in an actively managed portfolio of securities. The shares are traded in the market just like common stock.

In Other Words...
Most mutual funds are open end funds, not closed end. The main difference with closed-end funds is that market price of the shares is determined by supply and demand and not by net asset value (NAV).

Also known as a closed end mutual fund.
