About PMLCX

PIMCO Municipal Bond Fund Class C is an open-end mutual fund specializing in tax-exempt fixed income investments. The fund primarily invests at least 80% of its assets in municipal bonds, focusing on securities whose interest payments are exempt from federal income tax. Targeting both income generation and preservation of capital, it often holds a broad portfolio of municipal debt issued by states, local governments, and related agencies across the United States. Notable features include monthly dividend distributions, a relatively low risk profile within the municipal bond category, and below-average performance volatility. The fund also maintains flexibility to allocate up to 20% of its assets to U.S. government securities, money market instruments, or certain taxable municipal securities for diversification and liquidity management. With hundreds of holdings and a long operating history dating back to 1998, it plays a significant role for investors seeking steady, tax-efficient income, especially for those in higher federal tax brackets. Its broad exposure to municipal credits and proactive management underscore its contribution to the national muni long segment of the fixed income market.
