About GWMEX

AMG GW&K Municipal Enhanced Yield Fund Class I is a mutual fund designed to provide investors with a high level of current income that is generally exempt from federal income taxes. The fund achieves this by primarily investing in a diversified portfolio of U.S. municipal bonds, which are debt securities issued by state and local governments or their agencies. Its strategy focuses on both capital preservation and appreciation, aiming to balance stable income generation with potential for value growth in its holdings. A distinguishing characteristic of the fund is its emphasis on enhanced yield, seeking to deliver higher income relative to traditional municipal bond funds. This is accomplished through active management and careful selection of municipal securities, leveraging the expertise of its subadviser, a firm with decades of experience in the municipal bond market. The fund serves a vital role for investors seeking tax-advantaged income, and it contributes to the financial market by supporting municipal projects while providing an income-oriented option for income-focused portfolios.
