Memories Over Money: A New Take on Wealth Transfer

When to Buy Municipal Bonds

When to Buy Municipal Bonds – Municipal bonds are debt securities issued by governmental
entities to finance public projects like schools, highways, or water systems. For investors seeking
stability and tax advantages, municipal bonds can be an appealing component of a diversified
portfolio. However, as with any investment, they are rarely a good choice as their suitability
depends on individual circumstances, risk tolerance, and broader market conditions. Senior
Portfolio Manager Brian Regan joins Chris Boyd and Jeff Perry to review if and when municipal
bonds are right for your portfolio. #bonds #municipalbonds #investing #financialplan
