5.1.7.4. Types of Bond Funds

Some bond funds are more beneficial from a tax perspective than others. Tax-advantaged funds are suitable for investors with high tax rates. Note that even when interest is tax-exempt at the federal or state level, all capital gains distributions are subject to taxation at all levels (federal, state, and local).

The following table offers a breakdown of how interest is taxed for different bond funds.

THANK YOU SOLOMON! I passed the SIE in December and Series 6 in February. I do not have a background in finance. The study materials prepared me wonderfully for the exams. I used the study schedule - took a ton of practice exams and re-read the material. Also, the testimonials were very encouraging, so I had to share that I had the same amazing experience. Thank you so much!

Wanted to thank Solomon Exam Prep for helping me Pass my Series 6 TO test yesterday Monday Feb 3rd, 2020. After failing with a competing exam prep I decided to use Solomon's materials and I feel it gave me the edge to pass - YES! Materials are straight forward and concise, I loved using the Exam Simulator on my Android phone and my tablet with ease and simplicity taking as many test questions I wanted, very user friendly. Customer Service is GREAT, Solomon helped extend my Study Guide materials which help me alot too. Thank You and I definitely recommend Solomon.

Thanks so much for your great product. I recently used for the Series 6 and took a month to study and passed. I previously used another provider and didn't pass.

After failing the SIE with a different study company, I passed after using Solomon! I then passed the S6, S63 and S65 on the first try after studying with Solomon materials! I loved how easy the material was to comprehend and the practice tests were amazing! I felt well prepared for each test! Thank you Solomon!

Well, I am back! Solomon did it again. I passed the Series 6. All of Solomons materials throughly prepared me for the passing of the SIE and the Series 6. Whose materials will I use for the Series 63? I am glad you asked. I must say it will be Solomon Exam Prep. Thanks again, Solomon your study materials are the best!

Leanene Carriere. Houston, TX

I just took my SIE, Series 6 and Series 63 exams — I took them all on the same day (would recommend breaking them into separate days if you can, but I had specific work reasons I had to get them done). In any event, I PASSED all 3 exams. I used the Solomon materials and was extremely satisfied. Great study materials, I couldn’t have done it without your help. Thank you!
