A Word On Risk
| Investing in municipal bonds involves interest rate risk, the risk that interest rates will rise, causing bond prices to fall; and credit risk, the risk that an issuer of a municipal bond will be unable to make interest and principal payments. As with any mutual fund, loss of principal is a risk of investing. |
