At a glance

Over the past year it returned +1.8% with distributions reinvested, 4th of those 8 funds; over three years it returned +2.5% a year. At its worst it fell 0.7% in the 2020 crash (S&P 500: 33.7%) and 0.2% in the 2022 bear market (S&P 500: 24.5%), and was back at its earlier high within a month after the low.

The short version

Invesco Floating Rate Municipal Income ETF (PVI) tracks the ICE US Municipal AMT-Free VRDO Constrained Index: tax-exempt state and local bonds whose rates reset daily, weekly or monthly. Price swings have been tiny (no calendar year from 2015 through 2024 lost more than 0.24%), and it pays monthly income meant to be free of federal tax. The catches: a 0.25% annual fee, above the 0.14% average for similar funds, and much smaller size.

What changed recently

  • Over the three months to May 31, 2026, investors withdrew a net $1.2M (creations minus redemptions, per the N-PORT report).
  • Monthly total returns reported for that quarter: +0.16%, +0.23%, +0.16%.

How it works

PVI aims to match, before fees, the ICE US Municipal AMT-Free VRDO Constrained Index. The index holds variable rate demand obligations (VRDOs): tax-exempt bonds from states, territories and local governments whose interest rates reset daily, weekly or monthly. Holders can usually demand their money back on short notice; a remarketing agent, a dealer, then resells the bonds, which helps keep prices near face value. Each bond needs at least $10 million outstanding and an investment-grade (higher-quality) average rating from Moody's, S&P and Fitch. Bonds subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT), a parallel federal tax that hits some higher earners, are excluded.

PVI generally keeps at least 80% of total assets in index bonds but uses sampling, holding a representative slice: the index had 952 bonds as of October 31, 2025, while the fund held 134 as of May 31, 2026. The largest were New York City Municipal Water Finance Authority (4.6%), New York City Housing Development Corp. (4.0%) and Orlando Utilities Commission (4.0%). The top 10 made up 31%, with New York issuers prominent.

PVI won't necessarily drop a lagging bond unless it leaves the index. A key risk: if the fund can't use its demand rights, or an issuer or remarketing agent fails to pay, these bonds can be hard to offload.

What it really costs

  • PVI charges 0.25% a year, versus an average of 0.14% for the similar funds below (7th of 8, cheapest first).
  • Using the prospectus's standard example, $10,000 invested would cost about $26 in the first year and $318 over 10 years (assuming a 5% annual return).
Cost of $10,000 (SEC example)1 yr3 yrs5 yrs10 yrs
PVI$26$80$141$318
SEC standard example: $10,000 invested, 5% annual return, shares sold at the end of each period.

Structure and tax notes

  • Bond prices move opposite to interest rates; the longer the maturities it holds, the more its price reacts to rate changes.

In a retirement portfolio

RoleDefensive

Its tax-exempt bonds with frequently resetting rates have kept price swings very small, so it acts more like a reserve for near-term spending in a taxable account than a source of growth or high income.

PVI has held steady in past sell-offs. It dipped at most 0.7% in the 2020 COVID crash, recovering by April 1, 2020, and gained 0.5% across the 2022 bear market. Its worst calendar year in the prospectus record (2015–2024) was 2021, down 0.24%. It launched in November 2007, after the stock market's October 2007 peak, then fell 4.1% in early 2008 and took about 15 months to recover, a modest hit for anyone forced to cash out then.

Income arrives monthly: 2.18% of the share price over the 12 months to October 27, 2026. That income is meant to be free of federal tax, a benefit that goes unused in an IRA or 401(k). Costs run 0.25% a year versus a 0.14% average for similar funds. Past results don't predict the future, and a plan should look at the whole portfolio, not one fund.

Who it may suit — and who should look elsewhere

May suit

  • Higher-bracket investors with taxable accounts who want monthly income meant to be free of federal income tax, including the alternative minimum tax.
  • Retirees keeping a spending reserve who value stability: PVI dipped at most 0.7% in the 2020 crash and gained 0.5% through the 2022 bear market.
  • Investors wary of rising rates, since its bonds' interest rates reset daily, weekly or monthly instead of locking in a fixed rate for years.

Look elsewhere if

  • Savers investing mainly through an IRA or 401(k), where its federal tax exemption adds nothing to after-tax returns.
  • Cost-focused investors: six of seven similar funds charge less than its 0.25%, including iShares SUB at 0.07% and JPMorgan JMST at 0.18%.
  • Investors seeking more return: PVI's 2.5% annualized three-year return to October 27, 2026, ranked last among eight similar funds.

Questions investors ask

Does PVI pay monthly dividends?

Yes. PVI pays income every month. Over the 12 months to October 27, 2026, it paid $0.54 per share, a trailing yield of 2.18%. The money comes from interest on municipal bonds and is meant to be free of federal income tax, though the prospectus says that isn't guaranteed. Because the bonds' rates reset daily, weekly or monthly, payouts can rise or fall fairly quickly as short-term interest rates change.

Is PVI's income tax-free?

It's designed to be free of federal income tax, but that isn't guaranteed. PVI's index holds tax-exempt municipal bonds and leaves out any whose interest is subject to the alternative minimum tax (AMT). The prospectus warns a bond could later be ruled taxable back to its issue date. States often tax interest from other states' bonds, and many of PVI's largest holdings as of May 31, 2026, came from New York, Florida and Texas. Inside an IRA or 401(k), the exemption adds nothing.

What is PVI's expense ratio?

PVI's expense ratio, the yearly fee taken from fund assets, is 0.25%, per its prospectus filed December 18, 2025. In the SEC's standard example, $10,000 earning 5% a year would incur about $26 in costs over one year, $141 over five years and $318 over ten. That is above the 0.14% average for similar funds: six of seven charge less, including iShares Short-Term National Muni Bond ETF (SUB) at 0.07%.

What's the difference between PVI and SHM?

The main difference is what they hold. PVI tracks an index of variable rate demand obligations, municipal bonds whose rates reset daily, weekly or monthly; SPDR Nuveen Bloomberg Short Term Municipal Bond ETF (SHM) tracks a Bloomberg short-term municipal index. As of October 27, 2026, PVI returned 1.8% over one year versus 1.2% for SHM, but 2.5% a year over three years versus 3.3%. SHM charges 0.20% to PVI's 0.25% and had about $3.5 billion in assets (June 30, 2026) against PVI's $29.8 million (May 31, 2026).

Can PVI lose money when interest rates rise?

It can, but rising rates have historically done little damage. Because its bonds' rates reset daily, weekly or monthly, their prices tend to stay near face value and income can climb with short-term rates. PVI returned 0.88% in 2022 and 2.82% in both 2023 and 2024, per its prospectus. It has still had losses: its deepest drop, 4.1% in early 2008, took about 15 months to recover, and falling rates can cut its income quickly.
