Industry description
The investment seeks to provide as high a level of current income that is exempt from federal and state personal income tax as is consistent with prudent investment management and preservation of capital.
Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in California municipal obligations (securities issued by or on behalf of state or local governments and other public authorities) at the time of purchase. Generally, these municipal obligations pay interest that is exempt from state personal income tax and federal income tax.
