About ECMBX

Eaton Vance AMT-Free Municipal Income Fund Class C is an open-end municipal bond fund designed to deliver current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax. The strategy invests broadly across U.S. municipal sectors, states, and credit tiers, employing a diversified, credit‑focused approach that avoids bonds subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax. Active management draws on Eaton Vance’s dedicated municipal research team, incorporating ongoing credit monitoring and relative‑value trading to pursue incremental performance. The portfolio typically emphasizes longer‑maturity securities, a profile that can enhance tax‑exempt income while introducing greater interest‑rate sensitivity. The fund is benchmarked to the Bloomberg U.S. Municipal Bond Index and distributes income monthly. Overseen by veteran management, the offering seeks to provide consistent tax‑advantaged income while maintaining broad exposure to the municipal market’s essential-service issuers, revenue bonds, and general obligation structures. According to the sponsor’s materials, the fund’s objective is current income, with total net assets in the hundreds of millions and a multi‑decade track record across share classes.
