Fund Description

The Fund invests primarily in investment-grade municipal obligations, the interest on which is, in the opinion of the issuer’s bond counsel, exempt from federal income tax including the federal alternative minimum tax (“AMT”). Under normal circumstances at least 80% of the value of its assets will be invested in tax-exempt municipal obligations. This is a fundamental policy that cannot be changed without shareholder approval.The Adviser allocates the Fund’s investments among a diversified portfolio of investment-grade municipal obligations. The Adviser focuses on credit and yield considerations when selecting investments for the Fund. The Fund typically invests in municipal securities with remaining maturities of between seven and 30 years, but invests in municipal obligations with remaining maturities outside of that range as appropriate based on the Adviser’s analysis of the market and the economy.Up to 20% of the value of the Fund’s net assets may be invested in bonds that pay interest subject to federal income tax, including bonds that pay interest subject to the AMT.The Adviser may sell investments when it believes that they no longer offer attractive potential future returns compared to other investment opportunities or that they present undesirable risks, or in an attempt to limit losses on investments that may decline or have declined in value.The Fund normally will invest in municipal securities that, at the time of purchase, are of investment grade. An investment-grade security is one that is rated Baa3 or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or BBB or higher by S&P Global Ratings or Fitch Ratings, Inc., or if unrated, has been determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The Fund may hold up to 20% of its assets in below-investment-grade or unrated municipal obligations that the Adviser determines to be of comparable quality.The Fund may invest in other tax-exempt securities that are not municipal obligations. The Fund’s investments may include any type of debt instrument, including, for example, zero-coupon securities as well as floating- and variable-rate demand notes and bonds.The Fund may invest without limit in municipal obligations that pay interest from similar revenue sources, in municipal securities of issuers within a single state, or in municipal securities issued by entities having similar characteristics. The issuers may be located in the same geographic areas or may pay their interest obligations from revenue of similar projects, such as hospitals, airports, utility systems, and housing finance agencies. The Fund may invest more than 25% of its total assets in a segment of the municipal securities market with similar characteristics if the Adviser determines that the potential return from such investment justifies the additional risk.The Fund may enter into exchange-traded or over-the-counter derivatives transactions of any kind, such as futures contracts, options on futures, and swap contracts, including, for example, interest rate swaps and credit default swaps. The Fund may enter into any of these transactions for a variety of purposes, including, but not limited to, hedging various risks such as credit risk, interest rate risk, and liquidity risk; taking a net long or short position in certain investments or markets; providing liquidity in the Fund; equitizing cash; minimizing transaction costs; generating income; adjusting the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate risk or other risk; replicating certain direct investments; and asset and sector allocation.
