BlackRock Municipal Income Trust
BlackRock Municipal Income Trust (BFK) is a closed-end fund with an investment objective to provide current income that is exempt from federal income taxes. To achieve this, the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in municipal bonds, which are debt securities issued by states, cities, and other governmental entities to fund public projects. These bonds are typically of investment-grade quality. The income from these investments is generally exempt from federal income tax, although it may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax. Managed by BlackRock Advisors, LLC, one of the world's leading asset managers, the trust offers investors access to a diversified portfolio of municipal securities in a single investment. As with any investment, the value of the trust's shares can go down as well as up, and the level of income is not guaranteed.
