In addition to investment objectives and management level, discount rate is an important factor in evaluating closed-end funds, and investors with high discount rate have certain investment opportunities.

Calculation formula:
Formula for calculating discount rate.
Discount rate = (net fund share-unit market price)/net fund share × 100%.
According to this formula, we can see that:
(1) The discount rate is greater than 0 (that is, the net value is greater than the market price);
(2) When the discount rate is less than 0 (that is, the net value is less than the market price), it is a premium.
