About COTFX

NYLI MacKay Colorado Muni Fund is an open‑end municipal bond fund focused on generating tax‑advantaged income for Colorado residents. It invests at least 80% of assets in municipal securities whose interest is exempt from federal and Colorado state income taxes, emphasizing high‑quality issuers across general obligation and revenue bonds. The strategy applies a relative‑value approach that blends fundamental credit research with yield‑curve positioning and sector rotation, seeking to balance income with prudent risk management. The portfolio targets an intermediate interest‑rate profile consistent with the muni single‑state intermediate category, and it avoids leverage and explicit interest‑rate bets. Managed by a tenured municipal team with longstanding dealer relationships, the fund serves investors looking for state‑specific tax efficiency while financing public projects such as schools, utilities, and infrastructure within Colorado. Class options include institutional and retail share classes, with distributions paid monthly. The fund became the accounting successor to the Aquila Tax‑Free Fund of Colorado following a 2024 reorganization, inheriting its historical performance record.
