ORFFX Investment Objective and Strategy
Aquila Tax-Free Trust of Oregon describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Aquila Municipal Trust.
Investment objective
The Funds objective is to provide you as high a level of current income exempt from Oregon state and regular Federal income taxes as is consistent with preservation of capital.
Principal investment strategy
Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Funds net assets will be invested in municipal obligations that pay interest exempt, in the opinion of bond counsel, from Oregon state and regular Federal income taxes, the income paid upon which will not be subject to the Federal alternative minimum tax on individuals. In general, almost all of these obligations are issued by the State of Oregon, its counties and various other local authorities; these obligations may also include certain other governmental issuers. We call these Oregon Obligations. These securities may include participation or other interests in municipal securities and variable rate demand notes. Some Oregon Obligations, such as general obligation issues, are backed by the issuers taxing authority, while other Oregon Obligations, such as revenue bonds, are backed only by revenues from certain facilities or other sources and not by the issuer itself.
These obligations can be of any maturity, but the Funds weighted average maturity has traditionally been between 5 and 15 years. The Fund is classified as a non-diversified investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act), which means it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. At the time of purchase, the Funds Oregon Obligations must be of investment grade quality. This means that they must either be rated within the four highest credit ratings assigned by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations or, if unrated, be determined to be of comparable quality by the Funds Manager, Aquila Investment Management LLC. The Manager selects obligations for the Funds portfolio in order to achieve the Funds objective by considering various characteristics including quality, maturity and coupon rate.
