About AAHMX

The abrdn Short Duration High Yield Municipal Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to deliver a high level of current income that is exempt from federal income tax. Its primary function is to invest at least 80% of its net assets in municipal bonds, with a focus on those that carry higher yields, including a significant allocation to bonds rated below investment grade (BB or lower), which often offer greater income potential. The portfolio is actively managed with an emphasis on maintaining a weighted average effective duration of less than 4.5 years, helping to mitigate interest rate risk while targeting attractive yields. The fund’s holdings span a broad range of sectors linked to municipal finance, such as charter schools, continuing care retirement communities, higher education, economic and industrial development, and local authorities. Notable fund features include monthly income distributions and a diversified portfolio of approximately 120 holdings. By concentrating on short-duration, high-yield municipal securities, the fund serves investors seeking tax-advantaged income and exposure to municipal credit opportunities, playing a specialized role in the fixed income segment of the financial market.
