(\u201cInterval Fund\u201d or \u201cFund\u201d), expanding its suite of interval funds providing alternative investment solutions for retail wealth clients.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Fund seeks to provide attractive after-tax total return, through income and capital appreciation, by investing in municipal securities. The Fund\u2019s Institutional Share Class (\u201cMUNEX\u201d) is launching with a <b>5.75% annualized rate on the initial NAV<\/b>, payable monthly. MUNEX currently has approximately $565 million in managed assets, ranking as one of the largest municipal interval funds.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nBlackRock is an industry leader with $182 billion in municipal bond investments, supported by a team of 59 investment professionals. The interval fund structure provides flexibility for BlackRock\u2019s experienced team to invest in more bespoke areas of the high yield market, including special situations, while taking larger concentrations in high conviction names compared to traditional high yield municipal funds.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThe Fund&#8217;s interval structure provides long-term capital, allowing my team to take advantage of bond market volatility and inefficiency. This enables MUNEX to invest in traditional high yield assets, while also utilizing our deep credit expertise to identify less liquid opportunities and special situations. Furthermore, the interval structure allows us to purchase assets when others are compelled to sell, potentially securing higher yields and greater overall returns.\u201d \u2013 Ryan McDonald, Portfolio Manager for MUNEX.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIn our view, high yield municipal bonds offer alternative return drivers that complement traditional fixed income portfolios. We think that the interval fund structure is the best way to take advantage of inefficiencies in the high yield market, from both a yield and total return perspective. Our expertise in this market, particularly in the event-driven space, provides investors a unique opportunity for high tax-efficient yield and superior total return.\u201d \u2013 Patrick Haskell, Head of BlackRock\u2019s Municipal Bond Group.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe below table highlights the various share classes available to investors.\n<\/p>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"bwtablemarginb bwblockalignl bwwidth100\">\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwtopsingle bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwrowaltcolor1 bwwidth85 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\n\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwtopsingle bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwpadl0 bwrowaltcolor1 bwwidth15\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwalignc bwcellpmargin\"><b>Ticker<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth85 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>BlackRock Municipal Credit Alpha Portfolio, Inc., Institutional Class<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwpadl0 bwwidth15\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwalignc bwcellpmargin\">\nMUNEX\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth85 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>BlackRock Municipal Credit Alpha Portfolio, Inc., Class A<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwpadl0 bwwidth15\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwalignc bwcellpmargin\">\nXMUNX\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth85 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>BlackRock Municipal Credit Alpha Portfolio, Inc., Class U<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwpadl0 bwwidth15\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwalignc bwcellpmargin\">\nMUNUX\n<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><b>Important Notice<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThis press release is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute a recommendation, an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell any common shares of the Fund.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About BlackRock<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nBlackRock\u2019s purpose is to help more and more people experience financial well-being.
