About FTGAX
Franklin Georgia Tax-Free Income Fund Class A1 is a municipal bond mutual fund focused on generating income exempt from both federal income taxes and Georgia state personal income taxes. The fund primarily invests at least 80% of its assets in municipal securities whose interest payments are free from these taxes, including the federal alternative minimum tax. Its portfolio consists largely of bonds issued by Georgia-based public authorities, such as hospital and development agencies, as well as essential service providers, reflecting its targeted regional approach. With an inception date in 1987, the fund is designed to meet the needs of investors seeking municipally-sourced income with a focus on preservation of capital. Dividend distributions are made monthly, and the fund typically maintains a moderate credit quality and interest rate sensitivity profile.
