Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2

The Fund seeks to provide after-tax total return.

Strategy · summarised

The fund allocates its assets among multiple sub-advisers, each managing a portion of the portfolio with day-to-day security selection responsibility: Capital implements index-tracking strategies across U.S. municipal bond maturity segments, Nuveen and Allspring actively manage municipal bond allocations for tax-exempt income, and BlackRock replicates risk characteristics of a government bond index through stratified sampling. At least 50% of assets are invested in municipal securities with federal tax-exempt interest, while up to 20% may be in below-investment-grade securities. Because BlackRock uses stratified sampling rather than holding all index constituents, its portion may diverge from its underlying index.

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.

Risk profile

Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2

More of this fund’s sensitivity sits in credit spreads than in interest rates — a rate rally that comes with a credit selloff works against it.

Interest-rate duration
5.13 yr
approx. move per 100bp
Credit-spread duration
6.35 yr
approx. move per 100bp
If rates and spreads both rise 100bp

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.

≈ -11.5%
of value
Credit spreads55%
Interest rates45%

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 duration at each point, shortest first. A positive figure loses value when spreads widen; a negative one offsets — a credit hedge.

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.
