About EILBX

The Parametric TABS 1-to-10 Year Laddered Municipal Bond Fund Class I is an open-end mutual fund specializing in municipal fixed-income securities. Its primary objective is to provide current income exempt from regular federal income tax by investing in a diverse portfolio of municipal obligations, such as general obligation and revenue bonds, with maturities spanning one to ten years. The fund employs a rules-based, laddered maturity strategy, allocating assets approximately equally across defined annual maturity sleeves within this range, aiming to offer both income consistency and broad exposure across the municipal yield curve. This approach supports risk management and helps mitigate interest rate sensitivity by ensuring regular bond maturities and reinvestments. The fund’s portfolio reflects significant geographic and sector diversification, lending support to public infrastructure projects nationwide, such as transportation, education, and utilities. As part of the "Muni National Short" category, it serves as a potential core holding for investors seeking tax-advantaged income with a focus on capital preservation and moderate duration risk, functioning either as a standalone allocation or as a complement within broader fixed-income portfolios.
