About MVACX
MFS Virginia Municipal Bond Fund Class C is an open-end municipal bond mutual fund focused on generating tax-advantaged income for Virginia residents. The fund primarily invests in investment-grade debt issued by Virginia state and local governments and related authorities to finance public projects such as utilities, transportation, and education infrastructure. Its strategy emphasizes income exempt from federal income tax and, for in-state investors, Virginia personal income tax, while also considering long-term total return. Managed by Massachusetts Financial Services with a long-tenured team and track record dating back to the 1990s, the portfolio typically maintains a longer interest-rate duration consistent with single-state, long-maturity municipal strategies. Distributions are paid monthly, reflecting the underlying coupon income from diversified holdings across revenue and general obligation bonds. As a single-state portfolio, it offers targeted tax efficiency and localized credit exposure, playing a niche role in the municipal market for investors seeking state-specific tax-exempt income within a professionally managed structure.
Performance
MVACX had a total return of -0.78% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 2.80%.
