Our read on MMIT

ETF.net Research

In short

AActive muni bond-picking in an ETF wrapper. MacKay Shields' municipal desk has run MMIT since 2017, sifting roughly 900 investment-grade, AMT-free bonds for income exempt from federal tax, and paying it out monthly.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks current income exempt from federal income tax.

Why people hold it

  • Genuinely active, not an index in disguise: MacKay Shields' muni team picks bonds on credit and yield-curve analysis, targeting a 3 to 10 year duration band.nylim.comstockanalysis.com
  • A billion-dollar-plus fund and one of the more actively traded in the intermediate muni group, with roughly 900 bonds spreading issuer risk.
  • Trading since 2017, a long run for an active muni ETF, and one of the stronger implementations in its intermediate muni peer group.
  • Does the one job it advertises: current income exempt from federal income tax, distributed monthly.

Worth knowing

  • 0.30%, net of a fee waiver off 0.46% gross, sits near the category median but above index rivals: TAXI 0.05%, ITM 0.18%, EVIM 0.11% net of a waiver through February 1, 2027.
  • Active management cuts both ways: holdings and results can drift from a plain muni index in either direction.nylim.com
  • Income is exempt from federal income tax, not state tax, and the bonds still reprice when rates move.nylim.com
