PRFHX Overview

On this page you'll find an in-depth profile of T. Rowe Price Tax-free High Yield Fund. Learn about the key management, total assets, investment strategy and contact information of PRFHX among other information.

Investment Strategy

The investment seeks a high level of income exempt from federal income taxes by investing primarily in long-term low- to upper-medium-grade municipal securities. Normally, at least 80% of the fund's income will be exempt from federal income taxes. However, up to 20% of the fund's income could be derived from securities subject to the alternative minimum tax. It generally seeks higher yielding municipal bonds, including those that are rated below investment grade (BB and lower, or an equivalent rating) by a major credit rating agency or by T. Rowe Price, known as "junk" bonds.
