About FEHRX
First Eagle High Yield Municipal Fund Class R6 is an actively managed mutual fund specializing in high-yield municipal bonds. Its primary objective is to provide investors with a high level of current income that is exempt from regular federal income taxes, while also seeking opportunities for capital appreciation. The fund invests predominantly in a diversified portfolio of municipal bonds, including those from a broad spectrum of issuers across the United States. Notably, it holds a sizable number of securities—over 1,500 as of March 2025—and targets bonds with higher yields and credit risk relative to the broader municipal bond market, offering a yield profile well above its peer average. The fund is designed for institutional investors, as indicated by its Class R6 share structure, and is offered without sales charges or loads. It maintains a weighted average duration of around 9.7 years, reflecting intermediate- to long-term exposure. A portion of its holdings may be subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax. Managed by First Eagle Investment Management since 2017, the fund plays a significant role in the municipal high-yield market by providing income-oriented investors with tax-efficient yield and diversification within the fixed income segment.
