In this higher-for-longer rate regime, municipal bonds have emerged as a prime go-to option. Elevated interest rates have investors scrambling for yield, and munis have been ready to answer the call with tax-exempt income.

Municipal bonds have emerged as one of the standout performers in the high-grade fixed income market, validating expectations that tax-exempt securities were well positioned to regain lost ground from 2025. High-net-worth investors and institutional managers continue to allocate heavily to muni bond ETFs to lock in attractive tax-equivalent yields.

Passive, active, Treasuries, corporates, munis, international, and more — the whole spectrum of fixed income ETFs seemed to come off a strong year in 2025. The year was also marked by a bevy of launches.

In conjunction with Nasdaq, TMX VettaFi head of research Todd Rosenbluth co-hosted an Asset Allocation Summit webinar session focusing on the ever-evolving space of fixed income. With fixed income ETFs crossing $325 billion in inflows as of mid-October, there's an obvious interest from investors.

Northern Trust Asset Management has launched three new fixed income exchange-traded fund (ETF) suites, catering to fixed income investors looking for laddering strategies that focus specifically on municipal and inflation-linked bonds as well as those looking for core muni options to complement a portfolio. The three product suites include 11 ETFs total.
