If the Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular
swap agreement, the Fund will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) pay
a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. |
| 2 |
The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a
buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. |
| 3 |
The quoted market prices and resulting values for credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities and
credit indices serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of an expected loss (or profit) for the credit derivative had the notional amount of the swap agreement been closed/sold as of
the period end. Decreasing market values (sell protection) or increasing market values (buy protection) when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater
likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement. |
| † |
Percentage shown is an annual percentage rate. |
This Consolidated Schedule of Investments is unaudited and is intended to provide information about the Fund’s investments as of the date

Notes to Consolidated Schedule of Investments (unaudited)
1. Organization and significant accounting policies
Western Asset Inflation-Linked Opportunities & Income Fund (the “Fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(“1940 Act”), as a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund commenced operations on February 25, 2004.
The Fund’s primary investment objective is to provide current income for its shareholders. Capital appreciation, when consistent with current income, is
a secondary investment objective. Under normal market conditions and at the time of purchase, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its total managed assets in inflation-linked securities. The Fund may invest up to 100% of its total managed assets in
non-U.S. dollar investments. The Fund may also invest up to 40% of its total managed assets in below investment grade securities. If a security is rated by multiple nationally recognized statistical rating
organizations (“NRSROs”) and receives different ratings, the Fund will treat the security as being rated in the highest rating category received from an NRSRO.
The Fund may gain exposure to the commodities markets by investing a portion of its assets in a wholly-owned subsidiary, Western Asset Inflation-Linked
Opportunities & Income Fund CFC (the “Subsidiary”), organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Among other investments, the Subsidiary may invest in commodity-linked instruments. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total
assets in the Subsidiary; although 10% of total managed assets may be utilized for commodity-related strategies. This schedule of investments is the consolidated schedule of investments of the Fund and the Subsidiary.
The Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946,
Financial Services – Investment Companies (“ASC 946”). The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund and are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”), including, but not limited to, ASC 946.
(a) Investment valuation. The valuations for fixed income securities (which may
include, but are not limited to, corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and certain derivative instruments are typically the prices supplied by independent third party
pricing services, which may use market prices or broker/dealer quotations or a variety of valuation techniques and methodologies. The independent third party pricing services typically use inputs that are observable such as issuer details, interest
rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar securities. Investments in open-end funds are valued at the closing net asset value per share of each
fund on the day of valuation. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last
reported sales price or official closing price on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. When the Fund holds securities or other assets that are denominated in a foreign currency, the Fund will normally use the
Notes to Consolidated Schedule of Investments (unaudited) (cont’d)
currency exchange rates as of 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). If independent third party
pricing services are unable to supply prices for a portfolio investment, or if the prices supplied are deemed by the adviser to be unreliable, the market price may be determined by the adviser using quotations from one or more broker/dealers or at
the transaction price if the security has recently been purchased and no value has yet been obtained from a pricing service or pricing broker. When reliable prices are not readily available, such as when the value of a security has been
significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before the Fund calculates its net asset value, the Fund values these securities as determined in accordance with procedures
approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees.
Pursuant to policies adopted by the Board of Trustees, the Fund’s adviser has been designated as the
valuation designee and is responsible for the oversight of the daily valuation process. The Fund’s adviser is assisted by the Global Fund Valuation Committee (the “Valuation Committee”). The Valuation Committee is responsible for
making fair value determinations, evaluating the effectiveness of the Fund’s pricing policies, and reporting to the Fund’s adviser and the Board of Trustees. When determining the reliability of third party pricing information for
investments owned by the Fund, the Valuation Committee, among other things, conducts due diligence reviews of pricing vendors, monitors the daily change in prices and reviews transactions among market participants.
The Valuation Committee will consider pricing methodologies it deems relevant and appropriate when making fair value determinations. Examples of possible
methodologies include, but are not limited to, multiple of earnings; discount from market of a similar freely traded security; discounted cash-flow analysis; book value or a multiple thereof; risk premium/yield analysis; yield to maturity; and/or
fundamental investment analysis. The Valuation Committee will also consider factors it deems relevant and appropriate in light of the facts and circumstances. Examples of possible factors include, but are not limited to, the type of security; the
issuer’s financial statements; the purchase price of the security; the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase; analysts’ research and observations from financial institutions;
information regarding any transactions or offers with respect to the security; the existence of merger proposals or tender offers affecting the security; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable
companies; and the existence of a shelf registration for restricted securities.
For each portfolio security that has been fair valued pursuant to the
policies adopted by the Board of Trustees, the fair value price is compared against the last available and next available market quotations. The Valuation Committee reviews the results of such back testing monthly and fair valuation occurrences are
reported to the Board of Trustees quarterly.
Notes to Consolidated Schedule of Investments (unaudited) (cont’d)
The Fund uses valuation techniques to measure fair value that are consistent with the
market approach and/or income approach, depending on the type of security and the particular circumstance. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable securities.
The income approach uses valuation techniques to discount estimated future cash flows to present value.
GAAP establishes a disclosure hierarchy that
categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
| |
• |
|
Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments |
| |
• |
|
Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments,
interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
| |
• |
|
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the
fair value of investments) |
The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk
associated with investing in those securities.
The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities carried at
fair value:
