Lipper: Municipal Bond Funds Continue To Appeal To Investors

FYI: Municipal bond funds (including both mutual funds and ETFs) took in $347 million of net new money for the fund-flows week ended Wednesday, February 21, 2018. The week’s results grew the overall year-to-date net inflows for the group to over $6.8 billion. This solid performance during the first part of 2018 continued the trend from the prior year, during which it had positive net flows of $25.4 billion. In fact, as the graph below illustrates, the muni debt funds peer group posted four consecutive annual net inflows (2014–2017) on the heels of the group’s worst ever annual net outflows of $64.2 billion for 2013.

Ted
