   In November 2023, the Financial Standards Accounting Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which introduced new annual and interim disclosure requirements for all public entities and modified some existing disclosures. The ASU was issued in response to investor requests for more detailed segment expense information and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Trust is currently evaluating the impact the ASU will have on its financial statements.
