Established in 1993, the fund invests primarily in a diverse portfolio of municipal securities issued by Minnesota state and local governments and their agencies. Major portfolio allocations include sectors such as healthcare facility bonds, housing authority bonds, and education bonds, which support infrastructure and community development across the state. The fund’s assets are managed to maintain a moderate duration and average maturity, balancing income generation with sensitivity to interest rate movements. With a tax-exempt structure, Sit Minnesota Tax-Free Income Fund serves investors seeking to maximize after-tax income, especially those residing in Minnesota. The fund’s tax-equivalent yields are particularly relevant for individuals in higher tax brackets, highlighting its role as a strategic vehicle for tax-efficient income within the municipal bond market.
