About this episode
In this episode of the Derivative podcast, our host Jeff Malec sits down with Tim McGregor and Tom Hession from Riverbend Capital Advisors to dive deep into the world of municipal bonds. The discussion covers the unique inefficiencies and complexities of the $4 trillion muni bond market, which features over 75,000 different issuers across the country. Tim and Tom explain how this fragmented landscape creates opportunities for active management and value capture, even in a low-risk asset class. Throughout, we explore the importance of customized portfolio construction, credit analysis, and structure optimization to generate tax-advantaged income for individual investors. We also touch on the impact of federal policy, interest rates, and political dynamics on the muni market. With over 50 years of combined experience in municipal bonds, the Riverbend team provides valuable insights for anyone looking to understand this often-overlooked corner of the fixed income universe.
