About DVFNX

Macquarie Tax-Free New York Fund Class C is an open-end municipal bond mutual fund that primarily invests in debt securities issued by New York state and local governments, as well as qualifying agencies and authorities.

The fund generally maintains a long maturity profile, with portfolios usually averaging over six years in duration or more than twelve years in average maturity. Its holdings are primarily composed of New York municipal bonds but may also include select municipal securities from other U.S. territories.
