Nuveen Municipal Bond
Funds can help you meet a variety of goals, including:
Steady Source of Monthly Income
Municipal bond funds can provide a steady source of monthly income. And,
because the dividends you earn are exempt from regular federal income taxes*,
you can put more of your investment income to work for you-whether you have it
allocated toward living expenses, charitable pursuits or other personal
interests. Keep in mind that state and local governments issue municipal bonds
to raise money for public facilities. When you own these securities, the
interest you earn is free from federal income taxes, while the dollars you
invest may give rise to such projects as a new school, an expanded highway
system, or other enhancements to your community.
Greater Compounding Potential
Tax-free municipal bonds can provide not only current income, but also the
potential for future growth. When your investment returns aren't reduced by
taxes each year, more earnings remain in your account, where they can compound
and help you generate and preserve wealth.
The Importance of Tax-Free Income*
An increasing number of Americans can see taxes eat away at their wealth.
That's why it's important to understand that the federal government does not
tax the income earned from a municipal bond fund. In addition, there's usually
no state or local taxes on the income earned for investors who live in the
municipality that issues the underlying bonds.
* Income is generally exempt from regular federal income taxes. Some
income may be subject to state and local taxes and to the federal alternative
minimum tax. Capital gains, if any, are subject to tax.
