Parametric TABS Intermediate-Term Municipal Bond Fund Class C is a mutual fund focused on providing tax-advantaged fixed-income exposure through investments primarily in high-quality municipal bonds. Its primary goal is to generate after-tax total return by selectively investing at least 80% of its assets in municipal obligations with interest payments generally exempt from regular federal income tax. The fund largely targets municipal bonds rated A or higher, but can allocate up to 15% to securities rated BBB or comparable quality. It emphasizes a portfolio with intermediate duration, currently aiming for an average duration of roughly 5 to 7 years and maintaining an average maturity between 5 and 13 years. The investment strategy combines active management and relative value analysis, seeking to add value through security selection and leveraging institutional pricing opportunities. Notably, the fund invests in both general obligation and revenue bonds across sectors such as infrastructure, utilities, education, and state or local government funding. Its role in the financial market is to serve investors looking for tax-exempt income with moderate interest rate sensitivity, complementing broader income-generating or tax-optimization strategies within diversified portfolios.
