The PGIM National Muni Fund’s Class Z delivered a 1.61% net return in Q4 2025, outperforming the Bloomberg 1-15 Year Municipal Bond Index on a gross basis. Municipal bonds saw positive total returns in Q4 as heavy issuance persisted alongside the Federal Reserve’s resumed rate cuts, including 25-basis-point reductions in October and December. The fund’s performance benefited from its curve-flattener strategy, particularly in the 5s20s segment of the municipal yield curve, which flattened during the quarter. Key contributors included tactical positioning in intermediate-term bonds, which capitalized on shifting yield dynamics amid the Fed’s policy adjustments. PGIM Investments, the fund’s manager, emphasized disciplined credit selection and duration management as drivers of relative outperformance in a volatile rate environment.
