Back to EpisodesTax edge makes munis attractive even as discounts shrink

Description
Patrick Galley, chief investment officer at RiverNorth Capital Management -- which runs four municipal bond closed-end funds that invest in both individual bonds and in other muni closed-end funds -- says that as tax-equivalent yields in the muni space have become relatively attractive, the supply-demand picture has changed, narrowing discounts. That doesn't diminish the tax edge provided by the bonds, but makes selective buying critical for investors looking for tax advantages now.
