About SHYD
The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its total assets in securities that comprise the benchmark index. The Short High Yield Index is composed of publicly traded municipal bonds that cover the U.S. dollar denominated high yield short-term tax-exempt bond market with a weight of 70% in non-investment grade municipal bonds, 20% in triple-B rated investment grade municipal bonds and a targeted 10% in single-A rated investment grade municipal bonds (in accordance with the Short High Yield Index provider's methodology). All bonds must have a nominal maturity of 1 to 12 years. This 80% investment policy is non-fundamental and may be changed without shareholder approval upon 60 days' prior written notice to shareholders.The Fund has adopted a fundamental investment policy to invest at least 80% of its assets in municipal securities. Such policy cannot be changed without a shareholder vote. For purposes of this policy, the term “assets” means net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes. This percentage limitation applies at the time of the investment.The Fund, using a “passive” or indexing investment approach, attempts to approximate the investment performance of the Short High Yield Index. Unlike many investment companies that try to “beat” the performance of a benchmark index, the Fund does not try to “beat” the Short High Yield Index and does not take temporary defensive positions that are inconsistent with its investment objective of seeking to replicate the Short High Yield Index. Because of the practical difficulties and expense of purchasing all of the securities in the Short High Yield Index, the Fund does not purchase all of the securities in the Short High Yield Index. Instead, the Adviser utilizes a “sampling” methodology in seeking to achieve the Fund’s objective. As such, the Fund may purchase a subset of the bonds in the Short High Yield Index in an effort to hold a portfolio of bonds with generally the same risk and return characteristics of the Short High Yield Index. The Short High Yield Index is rebalanced on the last calendar day of the month.The Fund may concentrate its investments in a particular industry or group of industries to the extent that the Short High Yield Index concentrates in an industry or group of industries. As of April 30, 2025, each of the industrial development and general obligation sectors represented a significant portion of the Fund.
