About EZMAX
Eaton Vance Short Duration Municipal Opportunities Fund Class C is an actively managed municipal bond mutual fund focused on delivering a high level of current income that is generally exempt from regular federal income tax, with an emphasis on limiting interest-rate sensitivity through a short-duration profile. The strategy targets the short end of the municipal market while retaining flexibility to invest across durations and credit tiers to pursue after-tax total return. Portfolio management employs bottom-up credit research and opportunistic allocation, including the ability to hold taxable municipal bonds and lower-rated issuers when valuations are attractive. The fund distributes income monthly and has a long operating history dating back to 1993, reflecting an established presence in the short muni category. Key characteristics include a diversified holdings base and an expense structure aligned with Class C share features. Within the municipal market, it serves investors seeking tax-advantaged income with moderated duration risk, supported by an experienced municipals team and an index context of the Bloomberg Short-Intermediate 1–10 Year Municipal Bond benchmark.
