PVI Tracks This Index: Thomson Municipal Market Data VRDO Index
Description: The Index is designed to track the performance of a pool of tax-exempt Variable Rate Demand Obligations (VRDOs) issued by municipalities in the United States on which the yields generally reset on a weekly basis. VRDOs are high-quality, floating-rate bonds that provide investors with tax-exempt income. VRDOs are generally purchased at par. When they are put back to an investment dealer, the investor generally receives par plus accrued interest.
