Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2025 Q3
The Goldman Sachs High Yield Municipal Fund (the Fund) seeks a high level of current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax and may also consider the potential for capital appreciation.
The fund invests at least 80% of assets in tax-exempt municipal securities, with a majority in high-yield (non-investment grade) issues rated BB+/Ba1 or below, selecting securities based on credit profile, yield, structure, and pricing relative to the municipal market. Because the fund's returns depend on the manager's security selection rather than tracking a stated index, performance may diverge materially from its benchmark. The fund may concentrate holdings in issuers within a single state or economic sector.

Return profile

| +5.52% | +14.51% | +5.00% | 5.10% | -7.35% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 5.45pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.09pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
May 2026 and Jun 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
Debt profile
What this fund holds — value-weighted across its bond and securitized long positions · as of 2026-06-30
Share of the fund's debt by how its coupon behaves — the fact that decides whether a rate move reaches this portfolio at all.
| Fixed rate | 82.9% |
| Zero-coupon or unclassified | 9.4% |
| Floating rate | 7.7% |
Share of the fund's debt value in each maturity band, shortest first.
| <1y | 0.4% |
| 1-3y | 1.2% |
| 3-5y | 2.1% |
| 5-10y | 8.6% |
| 10y+ | 87.7% |
These three overlap — one holding can be in arrears and paying in kind at once — so they are shown separately and never summed.
Risk profile
Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2
Most of this fund’s sensitivity is to interest rates, with credit spreads carrying nearly as much.
Where the loss would come from. The two shocks are the same size, so this is the balance of the fund's two sensitivities rather than a bet on one moving more.
| Interest rates | 51% |
| Credit spreads | 49% |
Filers report the impact of a 0.01% move only, so the total is our own scaling of that one number and overstates the loss on most bonds — read it as approximate, never as precise. The two sensitivities overlap rather than add up: they measure the same positions against different shocks, which is why the durations above are shown side by side and never summed.
Share of the fund's spread duration carried by each credit tier.
| High yield | +4.45 yr |
| Investment grade | +2.99 yr |
Share of duration at each point, shortest first. This filer signs its rate and credit disclosures differently; the direction shown follows its interest-rate filing, and a negative reading is the least-supported figure here.
| 3 mo | 0.03 yr | 0% |
| 1 yr | 0.34 yr | 4% |
| 5 yr | 1.32 yr | 17% |
| 10 yr | 3.71 yr | 48% |
| 30 yr | 2.27 yr | 30% |
| 3 mo | 0.08 yr | 1% |
| 1 yr | 0.03 yr | 0% |
| 5 yr | 0.24 yr | 3% |
| 10 yr | 2.23 yr | 30% |
| 30 yr | 4.86 yr | 65% |
The two bands measure the same positions against different shocks and do not add — a Treasury carries rate duration and no spread duration, a floating-rate credit the reverse. Rate tenors are also summed across every currency the fund discloses.
