About MBMAX

The MFS Massachusetts Municipal Bond Fund Class B is a mutual fund focused on generating tax-exempt income by investing primarily in municipal bonds issued within Massachusetts. Its primary objective is to seek total return, with a distinct emphasis on income that is exempt from both federal income tax and Massachusetts personal income tax, offering a "double tax-free" benefit particularly valuable to Massachusetts residents. The fund employs a strategy that leverages sector and security selection alongside yield curve analysis, aiming to provide steady, tax-advantaged income while also considering capital appreciation. By investing at least 80% of its assets in Massachusetts municipal debt, the fund plays a crucial role in supporting public projects such as infrastructure, education, and local government services within the state, contributing to the region’s development. With its longstanding history since 1985 and substantial asset base, the fund offers investors a vehicle for accessing the municipal bond market and diversifying their fixed-income exposure while mitigating certain tax obligations.
