About AYMYX

The American Century High-Yield Municipal Fund Y is an open-end mutual fund that focuses primarily on generating a high level of federally tax-exempt income. Its core strategy involves investing in municipal and other debt securities, with a significant allocation to high-yield, or below investment-grade, bonds issued by state and local governments or agencies. This approach allows the fund to offer a yield profile higher than that of mainstream municipal bond funds, while still providing its investors with the advantage of federal income tax exemption on interest payments. This fund is typically categorized within the high-yield municipal sector, targeting investors seeking income efficiency through tax-exempt sources. The portfolio may carry elevated credit risk compared to investment-grade municipal funds due to its emphasis on lower-rated issuers, but it plays a vital role in diversifying portfolio income streams. Additionally, the fund's holdings often span a variety of municipal projects, such as infrastructure, education, and public utilities, reflecting its broad participation in public-sector financing across the United States. Class Y shares are generally structured for institutional or intermediary investors, often characterized by lower expense ratios and a focus on efficient fund management.
