About JTFCX
The JPMorgan Tax Free Bond Fund Class C is a mutual fund that primarily targets current income that is exempt from federal income tax by investing at least 80% of its assets in municipal bonds issued by state and local governments across the United States. Designed to preserve capital and provide income, this fund holds a diversified portfolio of hundreds of municipal securities with an effective duration of approximately 6.6 years, positioning it in the national long municipal bond category. The fund distributes income monthly and generally appeals to investors seeking regular tax-advantaged income while maintaining moderate exposure to interest rate and credit risk. Although it benefits from a seasoned management team and sound investment process, its long-term returns have lagged both its benchmark municipal bond indices and peers, partly due to a relatively high expense ratio. The fund’s holdings support vital public projects such as schools, transportation, and infrastructure, underscoring its integral role in the broader municipal finance ecosystem.
