Investment Process

The firm’s economic overview and long-term fundamental valuations guide duration management targets set by the Fixed Income Team. The Fixed Income Team then establishes a current strategy for the portfolio, where securities are selected from a broad universe and meet specific valuation criteria. We use proprietary rating/ranking models extensively in our analysis. After securities are purchased, they are monitored on an ongoing basis and additional purchases or sales are evaluated as conditions and pricing dictate.

The Manning & Napier Unrestricted Municipal Bond Composite, previously known as the Long-Term Municipal Bond Composite, is a weighted average of discretionary separately managed and proprietary mutual fund accounts with an Unrestricted Municipal Bond objective. Accounts in this composite must have a market value greater than $100,000 and tenure of at least one month under our management. The investment objective of accounts in this composite is primarily to maximize tax-exempt income over a long-term time period with a secondary objective of preservation of capital. Generally, Unrestricted Municipal Bond accounts invest in tax-exempt securities across the maturity spectrum. Net-of-fee returns are based off of actual fees. They are after brokerage commissions, reinvested income, advisory fees, and if applicable, the fees of the Investor’s Personal Financial Advisor, but before custodian costs. Also, accounts subject to solicitation fees may incur as much as 0.15% in additional expenses. Fees will vary with size and circumstances and these fee differentials would impact returns accordingly. Past performance does not guarantee future results. All returns were earned in USD and are stated here in USD. All data are subject to revision. Performance for periods greater than one year is annualized.
