About this fund
- Run by Eaton Vance Management. Part of the Eaton Vance fund family. As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's yearly report. Original document →
- Size: about $419 million of holdings, as of Aug 31, 2026. As of Aug 31, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- Borrowing: the fund borrows about 35% on top of its own money, as of Aug 31, 2026. Borrowed money makes gains and losses bigger. As of Aug 31, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- Costs: 0.6% a year in management fees; 2.5% a year in total, including interest on borrowed money. Fiscal year ended Nov 30, 2025.
As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's yearly report. Original document →
Among the 76 funds we follow that invest in tax-free municipal bonds, 24 charge a lower management fee and 18 charge less in total, at their last yearly reports. Both numbers are measured against the fund's own money, not the money it borrows on top, so a fund that borrows more shows higher costs on both counts. - The fund's own cost example: $1,000 invested costs about $25 in the first year and about $280 over 10 years, assuming the holdings return 5% a year. As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Payouts: last fiscal year (ended Nov 30, 2025) the fund paid $0.62 a share. $0.49 of that was income; $0.13 was your own money back, not income. Most funds announce their monthly or quarterly payout on their own website, not in a filing with the regulator, so a cut or a raise there does not show up here until the next yearly report. A few funds do file a notice about a fixed payout; those appear under What happened, and when. As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Value of holdings per share at the last fiscal year end (Nov 30, 2025): $10.86. The shares traded at $10.90, about 0.4% above that.
As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's yearly report. Original document →
Over the last two years the gap (a "discount" when the price is below the value) ranged from 14.5% below to 4.7% above. As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document → - How the holdings did: down 1.5% over the last three months we have (June-Aug 2026), before the share price is taken into account. As of Aug 31, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- First reported to the regulator in 1998.

What these lines mean: a payout that is your own money back, what a fund costs, borrowing.
What a holder made
- The year ended Nov 30, 2025: the shares returned +7.1%, counting payouts; the holdings +0.4%. The holdings figure is what the fund's investments earned, before the share price is taken into account. As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The year ended Nov 30, 2024: the shares returned +19.5%, counting payouts; the holdings +9.1%. As of Nov 30, 2024, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The year ended Nov 30, 2023: the shares returned -2.3%, counting payouts; the holdings +3.6%. As of Nov 30, 2023, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The year ended Nov 30, 2022: the shares returned -21.4%, counting payouts; the holdings -17%. As of Nov 30, 2022, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The year ended Nov 30, 2021: the shares returned +7.8%, counting payouts; the holdings +5%. As of Nov 30, 2021, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- Those five years together: the shares returned +5.9%. $10,000 of shares bought at the start (Dec 1, 2020) would have become about $10,600 by Nov 30, 2025, with every payout counted, before tax. As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- The holdings over the last twelve months we have, to Aug 31, 2026: +7%. The quarterly reports carry no share price, so this is the holdings alone. As of Aug 31, 2026, from the fund's quarterly holdings report. Original document →
- Of the 50 funds that invest in tax-free municipal bonds with a fiscal year ending within six months of this one, 19 reported a higher share return for that year and 30 a lower one. As of Nov 30, 2025, from the fund's annual report. Original document →
- A past year says nothing about the next one. All figures are the fund's own, from its reports to the regulator.
Why the shares and the holdings can differ: the gap between price and value. Why payouts count: a payout that is your own money back.
