SMA overview
Exploiting market inefficiencies
The CoreBuilder® Municipal Income NY Preference SMA seeks to outperform its benchmark by actively managing the four key elements of total return: duration management, yield curve positioning, sector allocation, and security selection.

We believe that optimum performance is achieved by effectively managing the four main elements of total return.

Key differentiators

  • Interest rate forecast: Managing duration exposure to optimize risk/reward profile
  • Yield curve positioning: Optimizing portfolio structure to benefit from anticipated changes in the yield curve
  • Sector allocation: Shifting strategically between sub-classes of municipal securities
  • Security selection: Balancing a disciplined relative value orientation with detailed and timely credit research

Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest rate changes and their impact on the fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). This strategy is exposed to high-yield securities risk and municipal securities risk. A portion of the strategy’s income may be subject to federal, state, and/or local income taxes or the alternative minimum tax. Any capital gains distributions may be taxable.
