Municipal Income Opportunity Managed Account

Strategy Overview

Aims to deliver tax-efficient yield by investing in municipal bonds that are exempt from Federal taxes. Municipal bonds may be subject to state and local taxes.

Use of PIMCO Fixed Income SHares (‘FISH’) within the portfolio allows for greater flexibility and diversification potential, and the ability to invest selectively in high yield municipal bonds.

Benefits from PIMCO’s proprietary credit research, a key advantage in a municipal bond market that has become increasingly complex and subject to credit risk.

Seeks to take advantage of PIMCO's substantial market presence, which may result in economies of scale and greater, more efficient access to opportunities.

Portfolio Construction

The PIMCO Municipal Income Opportunity Managed Account is an actively managed portfolio of municipal bonds – with a unique differentiator. The strategy also incorporates an actively managed commingled fund (PIMCO Fixed Income SHares (‘FISH’): Series TE) in seeking to enhance diversification, tap into idiosyncratic investment opportunities, and invest opportunistically in high yield municipal securities. The physical bond allocation is also positioned with relative value in mind, differentiated from a typical ladder through active positioning across the curve to generate added yield.

We offer various percentage combinations of physical securities and PIMCO Fixed Income SHares (‘FISH’): Series TE, depending on investors’ preferred risk / return profile.
