In broad terms, there appears to be little headline risk facing advisors and income investors mulling municipal bonds. All 50 states carry investment-grade credit ratings, confirming that their credit quality remains solid.

With advisor enthusiasm mounting towards fixed income strategies, many portfolios are looking to build municipal bond exposure.

On Thursday, American Century Investments launched the American Century California Municipal Bond ETF (CATF). With a net expense ratio of 0.27%, CATF is an actively managed fund.
