Our read on RTAI

ETF.net Research

FRTAI hunts federally tax-exempt monthly income with an active hand, benchmarked to the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index instead of tracking it. The trade-off is a 4.72% expense ratio in a corner of the market where the median is 0.30%.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks total return with an emphasis on current income, with a substantial portion intended to be exempt from federal income taxes.

Why people hold it

  1. 01Pays monthly, and the mandate targets current income with a substantial portion intended to be exempt from federal income taxes.
  2. 02Run against the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index rather than pinned to it: the stated goal is total return with income as the emphasis.
  3. 03Trading since 2020, so there is a multi-year live record behind it rather than a back-test.

Worth knowing

  1. 01The 4.72% expense ratio sits far above the roughly 0.30% muni-ETF median, a high hurdle for tax-exempt income to clear.
  2. 02A small, thinly traded fund, so spreads and any premium or discount to net asset value matter more here than in the category's giants.
  3. 03Index rivals like VTEB, MUB and SCMB blanket the muni market for a few basis points, leaving RTAI among the costlier builds in its peer group.
