Short Duration Municipal Bond Strategy

Our actively managed Short-Duration Municipal Bond Strategy seeks to outperform other short-term investment strategies such as money market funds and treasuries by carefully purchasing short-duration, high-quality, short-call municipal bonds that generate coupon interest. The strategy uses no leverage, nor does it invest in other investment vehicles such as mutual funds or other pooled investment vehicles.

  • FEDERALLY TAX-FREE
  • AVERAGE DURATION OF ONE-YEAR OR LESS TO LIMIT RISK
  • LABOR-INTENSIVE PROCESS UNCOVERS MARKET INEFFICIENCIES
  • QUALITY-FOCUSED DUE DILIGENCE PROCESS BORN OF 30+ YEARS EXPERIENCE
  • MANAGED IN SEPARATELY MANAGED ACCOUNTS AT THE CUSTODIAN OF CLIENT’S CHOOSING
FOCUSED, TAX-EFFICIENT STRATEGY

— An actively managed, tax-efficient strategy that capitalizes on portfolio manager expertise and inefficiencies in the secondary municipal bond market
— Maximize returns versus other short-term strategies by investing in short-duration, high-quality municipal bonds which carry interest income exempt from federal and, as applicable, state tax

VALUE PROPOSITION
