The Fund seeks to maintain a stable share price, or net asset value (NAV), of $1; maintains a dollar-weighted average maturity of 60 days or less and a dollar-weighted average life of 120 days or less; and invests in high-quality securities with effective maturities of 397 days or less. To be eligible for investment by the Fund, a security must be determined by methods approved by the board of trustees of Vanguard Municipal Bond Funds to present minimal credit risk.  As a result, the Fund selects securities based in part on a consideration of maturity, portfolio diversification, portfolio liquidity, and credit quality.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Fund&#x2019;s investments in municipal securities may include municipal bond structured products that, in the opinion of the Fund&#x2019;s advisor, are consistent with the Fund&#x2019;s investment objective. Such investments may include tender option bonds or long-term municipal securities with a demand feature  (&#x201c;variable rate demand notes&#x201d; or &#x201c;VRDNs&#x201d;).&lt;/span&gt;</oef:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

As a result, the Fund may be impacted by the general condition of the bond markets and by factors that affect bonds and bond issuers. For example, as a general rule, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Tax-exempt income from the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be declared taxable, possibly with retroactive effect, due to a variety of circumstances such as tax law changes, adverse interpretations by tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct by a municipal bond issuer. Any of these circumstances could cause the prices of municipal bonds to decline significantly or impair the Fund&#x2019;s ability to achieve its investment objective.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

However,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;money market fund income is based on short-term interest rates, which means the Fund&#x2019;s income may fluctuate significantly over short periods and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;may decline during periods of falling interest rates.

For example, the Fund may be subject to loss if interest rates increase substantially and/or rapidly. Depending on the duration and severity, a period of low or negative interest rates could prevent the Fund from, among other things, providing a positive yield to its shareholders, paying expenses out of current income, and/or achieving its investment objective, including maintaining a stable NAV of $1.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in medium-quality municipal  bonds (e.g., Baa by Moody&#x2019;s) and 5% of its assets in securities with lower credit ratings,  also as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or, if unrated, determined to be of comparable quality by the  Fund&#x2019;s advisor.  &lt;/span&gt;</oef:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;bond prices and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a  number of reasons, including, but not limited to,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Tax-exempt income from the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be declared taxable, possibly with retroactive effect, due to a variety of circumstances such as tax law changes, adverse interpretations by tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct by a municipal bond issuer. Any of these circumstances could cause the prices of municipal bonds to decline significantly or impair the Fund&#x2019;s ability to achieve its investment objective.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;projects,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;municipal bond market.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;As a result,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;the Fund may underperform funds that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;invest&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; more&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

To be eligible for inclusion in the Target Index, a bond must have&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;a rating of&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;at least investment-grade,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;, which &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;could make their prices more volatile.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; The Fund also is subject to the risk that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Tax-exempt income from the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be declared taxable, possibly with retroactive effect, due to a variety of circumstances such as tax law changes, adverse interpretations by tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct by a municipal bond issuer. Any of these circumstances could cause the prices of municipal bonds to decline significantly or impair the Fund&#x2019;s ability to achieve its investment objective.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Because the Fund generally seeks to track the performance of the Target Index regardless of how the Target Index is performing, the Fund&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if it were actively managed. Additionally,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;because the Fund does not hold all of the securities included in the Target Index, it is subject to the risk that the representative sample of securities selected by the advisor will, in the aggregate, vary from the investment profile of the full Target Index. The performance of the Fund&#x2019;s investments,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;in the aggregate,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;may not match the investment performance of the Target Index. This risk, known as tracking error risk, may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. The Fund also could be negatively impacted by changes to the Target Index made by the Index Provider or by errors made by the Index Provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the Index Provider will generally be borne by the Fund and, as a result, the Fund&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

To be eligible for inclusion in the Target Index, a bond must have&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;a rating of&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;at least investment-grade,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.

In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets.

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;, which &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;could make their prices more volatile.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; The Fund also is subject to the risk that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Tax-exempt income from the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be declared taxable, possibly with retroactive effect, due to a variety of circumstances such as tax law changes, adverse interpretations by tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct by a municipal bond issuer. Any of these circumstances could cause the prices of municipal bonds to decline significantly or impair the Fund&#x2019;s ability to achieve its investment objective.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

In addition, negative perceptions of an issuer&#x2019;s ability to make payments can cause the price of a security to decline. While all debt securities are subject to credit risk to some extent, those with higher credit quality ratings generally pose less credit risk than those with lower credit quality ratings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Because the Fund generally seeks to track the performance of the Target Index regardless of how the Target Index is performing, the Fund&#x2019;s performance may be lower than it would be if it were actively managed. Additionally,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;because the Fund does not hold all of the securities included in the Target Index, it is subject to the risk that the representative sample of securities selected by the advisor will, in the aggregate, vary from the investment profile of the full Target Index.

This risk, known as tracking error risk, may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. The Fund also could be negatively impacted by changes to the Target Index made by the Index Provider or by errors made by the Index Provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the Index Provider will generally be borne by the Fund and, as a result, the Fund&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The Target Index measures the performance of investment-grade, fixed-rate U.S. municipal bonds with maturities between one month and 20 years, as determined by the Index Provider. The Target Index includes municipal bonds issued primarily by states, local governments,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;and agencies whose interest is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes and the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;Bonds issued by U.S. territories and commonwealths are excluded from the Target Index, as are certain other bonds as determined by the Index Provider. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in the bonds that make up the Target Index. The Fund also has a fundamental policy  to, under normal circumstances,  invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in securities whose income is exempt from federal income taxes and the federal AMT.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Fund invests by sampling the Target Index, meaning that it holds a range of securities that, in the aggregate, approximates the full Target Index in terms of key risk factors and other characteristics. The Fund seeks to maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity consistent with that of the Target Index, which, under normal circumstances, is expected to be between 3 and 10 years. As of October 31, 2025 , the dollar-weighted average maturity of the Target Index was 9.1 years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Fund may become nondiversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, solely as a result of tracking an index.  This could occur due to events such as an index rebalance or market movement. A nondiversified fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of particular issuers as compared with diversified funds.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;, which &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;could make their prices more volatile.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; The Fund also is subject to the risk that &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt;broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Tax-exempt income from the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be declared taxable, possibly with retroactive effect, due to a variety of circumstances such as tax law changes, adverse interpretations by tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct by a municipal bond issuer. Any of these circumstances could cause the prices of municipal bonds to decline significantly or impair the Fund&#x2019;s ability to achieve its investment objective.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

As a matter of fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in debt securities that are primarily issued by U.S. states, local governments, or agencies and whose interest is exempt from federal income taxes and the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Fund expects to maintain, under normal market conditions, a dollar-weighted average maturity of 8 to 20 years, but has no limitations on the maturities of individual securities. Although the Fund may invest in municipal bonds of any quality, it typically invests a majority of its assets in municipal bonds rated investment-grade as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (e.g., Baa3 or higher by Moody&#x2019;s) or, if unrated, determined to be of comparable quality by the Fund&#x2019;s advisor.

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The issuer of a callable bond has the right to &#x201c;call&#x201d; (redeem) the bond before its maturity date. Calls on bonds held by the Fund would result in the Fund losing any price appreciation above the bond&#x2019;s call price. In addition, because bond calls occur more frequently during periods of falling interest rates, the Fund likely would be forced to reinvest the proceeds of any called bonds at a lower interest rate than that of the called bonds, resulting in a decline in the Fund&#x2019;s income and a potential loss in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments. If the proceeds from a called bond generate taxable income, the Fund may need to distribute income subject to federal personal income tax or to the federal alternative minimum tax. Frequent bond calls and subsequent reinvestments of the proceeds also would increase the Fund&#x2019;s turnover rate.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Although it is expected that the market price of an ETF share typically will approximate its net asset value (NAV), there may be times when the market price of an ETF share and its NAV differ significantly. Disruptions to creation and redemption transactions, the existence of significant market volatility, or potential lack of an active trading market for ETF shares (including through a trading halt), as well as other factors, may result in ETF shares trading significantly above (at a premium) or below (at a discount) the Fund&#x2019;s NAV or the intraday value of the Fund&#x2019;s holdings. Thus, you may pay more or less than NAV when you buy ETF shares on the secondary market, and you may receive more or less than NAV when you sell those shares.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

As a matter of fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in debt securities that are primarily issued by U.S. states, local governments, or agencies and whose interest is exempt from federal income taxes and the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Fund&#x2019;s dollar-weighted average duration will normally range between 1.5 to 5 years. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;Duration &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;is a measure of the price sensitivity of a bond or a bond fund to changes in interest rates. For example, if a bond has a duration of two years, its price would fall by approximately 2% when interest rates rise by 1%. On the other hand, the bond&#x2019;s price would rise by approximately 2% when interest rates fall by 1%. The Fund expects to maintain, under normal market conditions, a dollar-weighted average maturity of 2 to 7 years, but has no limitations on the maturities of individual securities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;Although the Fund may invest in municipal bonds of any quality, it typically invests a majority of its assets in municipal bonds rated investment-grade as determined by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (e.g., Baa3 or higher by Moody&#x2019;s) or, if unrated, determined to be of comparable quality by the Fund&#x2019;s advisor. With no more than 20% of its assets, the Fund also may invest in municipal bonds rated below investment-grade (also referred to as high-yield securities or &#x201c;junk&#x201d; bonds).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Fund is considered nondiversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which means that it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of particular issuers as compared with diversified funds.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Calls on bonds held by the Fund would result in the Fund losing any price appreciation above the bond&#x2019;s call price.

If the proceeds from a called bond generate taxable income, the Fund may need to distribute income subject to federal personal income tax or to the federal alternative minimum tax.

Although it is expected that the market price of an ETF share typically will approximate its net asset value (NAV), there may be times when the market price of an ETF share and its NAV differ significantly. Disruptions to creation and redemption transactions, the existence of significant market volatility, or potential lack of an active trading market for ETF shares (including through a trading halt), as well as other factors, may result in ETF shares trading significantly above (at a premium) or below (at a discount) the Fund&#x2019;s NAV or the intraday value of the Fund&#x2019;s holdings. Thus, you may pay more or less than NAV when you buy &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;ETF shares on the secondary market, and you may receive more or less than NAV when you sell those shares.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The Target Index measures the performance of investment-grade, fixed-rate U.S. municipal bonds with remaining maturities greater than 10 years, as determined by the Index Provider. The Target Index includes municipal bonds issued primarily by states, local governments, and agencies whose interest is exempt from U.S. federal income taxes and the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT). Bonds issued by U.S. territories and commonwealths are excluded from the Target Index, as are certain other bonds as determined by the Index Provider. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in the bonds that make up the Target Index. The Fund also has a fundamental policy to, under normal circumstances, invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in securities whose income is exempt from federal income taxes and the federal AMT.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Fund invests by sampling the Target Index, meaning that it holds a range of securities that, in the aggregate, approximates the full Target Index in terms of key risk factors and other characteristics. The Fund seeks to maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity consistent with that of the Target Index, which, under normal circumstances, is expected to greater than 10 years. As of October 31, 2025, the dollar-weighted average maturity of the Target Index was 19.9 years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;line-height:11.5pt;"&gt;The Fund may become nondiversified, as defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, solely as a result of tracking an index.

A nondiversified fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of particular issuers as compared with diversified funds.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

These factors, which can be real or perceived, may include economic, market, political, and regulatory conditions and developments as well as local, regional, or global events such as wars, military conflicts, natural disasters, and public health issues. In addition, investor sentiment and expectations regarding these factors can also impact the markets. Different parts of the market, including different industries and sectors as well as different types of securities, may react differently to factors that affect the market. These factors can contribute to market uncertainty, market volatility, and fluctuations in the value of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, thereby resulting in potential losses to the Fund over short or long periods.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

For example, as a general rule, bond prices and interest rates move in opposite directions. When interest rates rise, bond prices tend to fall, and when interest rates fall, bond prices tend to go up. Bond income also is affected by changes in interest rates. Interest rates can rise or fall for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to, central bank monetary policy, inflationary or deflationary pressures, and changes in general market and economic conditions. Changing interest rates, including, but not limited to, rates that fall below zero, could have unpredictable effects on the overall market and may expose the bond markets in particular to heightened volatility and potential illiquidity. The degree to which the Fund is impacted by certain bond market risks may vary based on factors disclosed in its principal investment strategies, such as the types of bonds in which it invests and the overall credit quality, average maturity, and/or average duration of its bond holdings.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The values of the Fund&#x2019;s municipal bond holdings could be impacted significantly by economic, regulatory, political, or other developments or circumstances affecting municipal bond issuers. These developments or circumstances could create uncertainty in the municipal bond market and/or adversely impact the ability of municipal bond issuers to make principal and interest payments, which could result in a loss to the Fund. Municipal bonds can vary from one another in a number of ways, which can impact their sensitivity to certain risks. For example, investing in revenue bonds, which make up a significant portion of the municipal bond market, will generally subject the Fund to a higher risk of loss than investing in municipal bonds &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;secured by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuer (general obligation bonds). Because the interest and principal on revenue bonds is payable only from a particular stream of revenue, they generally carry more &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;Credit Risk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;"&gt; than general obligation bonds. Revenue bonds also tend to be &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;more sensitive to economic conditions than general obligation bonds, which could make their prices more volatile. The Fund also is subject to the risk that all or a significant portion of its municipal bond holdings will be affected in the same manner. Because many municipal bonds are issued to finance similar projects, conditions in related sectors could have an outsized impact on the municipal bond market. As a result, the Fund may underperform funds that invest more broadly.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Any of these circumstances could cause the prices of municipal bonds to decline significantly or impair the Fund&#x2019;s ability to achieve its investment objective.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The issuer of a callable bond has the right to &#x201c;call&#x201d; (redeem) the bond before its maturity date. Calls on bonds held by the Fund would result in the Fund losing any price appreciation above the bond&#x2019;s call price.

If the proceeds from a called bond generate taxable income, the Fund may need to distribute income subject to federal personal income tax or to the federal alternative minimum tax.

The performance of the Fund&#x2019;s investments, in the aggregate, may not match the investment performance of the Target Index. This risk, known as tracking error risk, may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or under other unusual market conditions. The Fund also could be negatively impacted by changes to the Target Index made by the Index Provider or by errors made by the Index Provider. Any gains, losses, or costs associated with or resulting from an error made by the Index Provider will generally be borne by the Fund and, as a result, the Fund&#x2019;s shareholders.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

The performance of nondiversified funds may be negatively impacted by relatively few securities or even a single security and their shares may experience significant fluctuations in value.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>

Although it is expected that the market price of an ETF share typically will approximate its net asset value (NAV), there may be times when the market price of an ETF share and its &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;font-family:Arial;font-size:9.5pt;margin-left:0.0pt;"&gt;NAV differ significantly. Disruptions to creation and redemption transactions, the existence of significant market volatility, or potential lack of an active trading market for ETF shares (including through a trading halt), as well as other factors, may result in ETF shares trading significantly above (at a premium) or below (at a discount) the Fund&#x2019;s NAV or the intraday value of the Fund&#x2019;s holdings. Thus, you may pay more or less than NAV when you buy ETF shares on the secondary market, and you may receive more or less than NAV when you sell those shares.&lt;/span&gt;</oef:RiskTextBlock>
