investment strategy / process

The PNC Intermediate Tax Exempt Bond Fund is managed through a team-driven, top-down process utilizing active state selection and strategy, with extensive credit research and portfolio analysis to mitigate risk. The Fund seeks to provide high current income, while preserving capital by investing in investment-grade municipal obligations - or unrated securities of equal caliber - that pay interest exempt from federal income tax. The dollar-weighted average maturity of the fund is expected to remain within three to ten years.

Investment Risk

An investment in the Fund is subject to interest rate risk, which is the possibility that a Fund's yield will decline due to falling interest rates and the potential for bond prices to fall as interest rates rise. For some investors, income may be subject to state and/or local taxes, and certain investors may be subject to the federal Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT). This fund is non-diversified, which means that it may invest in securities of relatively few issuers. As a result, the Fund may be more susceptible than a diversified fund to a single adverse economic or political and regulatory occurrence affecting one or more issuers. Economic or political changes may impact the ability of municipal issuers to repay principal and interest payments on securities of the Fund, which may adversely impact the Fund’s shares.  The Fund may be subject to call risk, which is the risk of a bond being called prior to maturity.
