About XBNYX

BlackRock New York Municipal Income Trust is a closed-end mutual fund specializing in fixed income investments, with a primary focus on municipal bonds. Its central objective is to provide investors with current income that is exempt from federal, New York State, and New York City personal income taxes. The trust achieves this by allocating at least 80% of its managed assets to investment grade municipal bonds, ensuring a relatively high credit quality within the portfolio. These bonds typically finance essential public infrastructure and services across New York—including transportation, utilities, and water projects—playing a significant role in supporting local government initiatives. Managed by a team of experienced portfolio managers at BlackRock, the fund employs a disciplined approach to credit selection and interest rate exposure, aligning with investor needs for tax-advantaged income. The trust is a relevant vehicle for those seeking stable, tax-exempt yields, and it underscores the significance of municipal securities in enabling public sector funding while providing federally and state tax-free income to investors.
