Eaton Vance Municipal Income Trust

Eaton Vance Municipal Income Trust is a closed-end mutual fund focused on delivering current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax. The fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of municipal bonds issued by state and local governments, supporting essential public infrastructure and community projects across the United States. Managed by Eaton Vance, now part of Morgan Stanley Investment Management, this trust is structured to appeal to investors seeking tax-advantaged income, particularly those in higher tax brackets. The fund's portfolio may include bonds with various credit qualities and maturities, including exposure to below investment grade securities, which can introduce a higher level of income potential as well as increased risk and price volatility. Eaton Vance Municipal Income Trust plays a significant role in the municipal bond market by providing capital to public-sector projects while offering investors a mechanism to diversify their fixed-income exposure and generate tax-exempt income.
