What happened

Defendants Guggenheim Funds Investment Advisors, LLC and various officers were alleged to have breached their fiduciary duties by causing the Fiduciary/Claymore Energy Infrastructure Fund (FMO) to over-leverage its assets and choosing a merger with Kayne Anderson Energy Infrastructure Fund instead of liquidation to avoid personal liability related to tax expenses. The defendants deny wrongdoing but agreed to settle for $18,800,000.
