Fund Summary as of June 30, 2014 | BlackRock High Yield Municipal Fund |
Investment Objective
Portfolio Management Commentary
• | For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Fund outperformed its primary benchmark, the S&P® Municipal Bond Index and its new secondary benchmark, the Custom Index. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to the Custom Index. |
• | The Fund’s long duration stance (greater sensitivity to interest rate movements) contributed positively to performance as interest rates declined during the period. (Bond prices fall as interest rates rise.) Yield curve positioning with a flattening bias and an emphasis on long-dated bonds also had a positive impact on returns. The Fund benefited from holding overweight allocations in outperforming sectors including health care, transportation, water and sewer and corporate-related debt. Additionally, exposure to non-rated bonds added to results as this segment outperformed all other rated bond categories. The Fund also benefited from maintaining an underweight exposure to Puerto Rico obligations, which lost considerable value due to deteriorating credit conditions. |
• | Conversely, exposure to limited tax obligations of the city of Detroit detracted from relative performance as the value of these credits declined precipitously following the city’s bankruptcy filing in the summer of 2013. The Fund’s use of U.S. Treasury futures contracts to manage interest rate risk had a modestly negative impact on results. |
• | In the latter half of 2013, portfolio activity was dominated by sales in order to fund escalating shareholder redemptions amid the industry-wide trend of municipal bond mutual fund outflows. During these months, the Fund focused on maintaining its existing credit profile, sector weightings and leverage. However, the municipal market experienced a reversal in flows in the first half of 2014 as investors exhibited increased willingness to assume more credit risk in the search for income. The Fund invested inflows in sectors offering superior potential returns including tax-backed general obligations, utilities, education, tobacco and development districts. |
• | As of period end, the Fund continued to maintain a high quality bias while its sector allocations had become somewhat more diverse. The Fund continued to maintain municipal credit exposures that had been purchased in a higher rate environment. Relative to the Custom Index, the Fund was overweight in the education, health care and transportation sectors, and modestly underweight in tax-backed and tobacco credits. The Fund remained positioned to benefit from a flatter yield curve, while continuing to use U.S. Treasury futures to manage portfolio duration. |

1 | For financial reporting purposes, credit quality ratings shown above reflect the highest rating assigned by either Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) if ratings differ. These rating agencies are independent, nationally recognized statistical rating organizations and are widely used. Investment grade ratings are credit ratings of BBB/Baa or higher. Below investment grade ratings are credit ratings of BB/Ba or lower. Investments designated N/R are not rated by either rating agency. Unrated investments do not necessarily indicate low credit quality. Credit quality ratings are subject to change. |
2 | The investment advisor evaluates the credit quality of unrated investments based upon certain factors including, but not limited to, credit ratings for similar investments and financial analysis of sectors and individual investments. Using this approach, the investment advisor has deemed certain of these unrated securities as investment grade quality. As of June 30, 2014, the market value of unrated securities deemed by the investment advisor to be investment grade was $7,235,537, representing 2% of the Fund’s long-term investments. |

Fund Summary as of June 30, 2014 | BlackRock National Municipal Fund |
Investment Objective
Portfolio Management Commentary
• | For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Fund outperformed its benchmark, the S&P® Municipal Bond Index. |
• | The Fund’s overweight to California credits had a positive impact on returns relative to its benchmark as the state’s financial picture continued to improve. Exposure to higher coupon issues with defensively structured call and maturity characteristics enhanced results given strong demand for such securities as municipal bond mutual funds sought opportunities for high income with less sensitivity to rate volatility. Holdings of health care and transportation bonds were rewarding as these sectors realized significant spread tightening during the period. The Fund also benefited from its longer-maturity bond holdings as investors extended their portfolios in the search for higher-yielding investments. |
• | The Fund’s cash reserves held for the purpose of providing liquidity detracted from relative results as longer-maturity investments benefited from spread tightening or interest rate movements. |
• | The Fund increased its cash equivalent reserves in the form of floating rate notes and short-term note securities were increased as the period progressed as tight credit quality spreads and low long-term investment rates warranted a more defensive stance with respect to maintaining portfolio liquidity. By the end of the 12-month period, cash reserves were relatively high compared to the industry and the Fund’s historical norm. Also during the period, the Fund reduced leverage by selling a portion of its tender option bond exposure. This was another effort to position the Fund more defensively, protecting from potential future rate volatility. Generally, portfolio activity has been aimed at realizing strong performance while seeking to mitigate future rate and credit spread volatility. |
• | As of period end, the Fund was positioned defensively with a bias toward high-quality securities and a high level of cash equivalent reserves. Relative to the S&P® Municipal Bond Index, the Fund maintained a short duration posture and held overweight exposures to the health care, transportation and utilities sectors. |

Fund Summary as of June 30, 2014 | BlackRock Short-Term Municipal Fund |
Investment Objective
Portfolio Management Commentary
• | For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Fund underperformed its primary benchmark, the S&P® Municipal Bond Index, and its secondary benchmark, the S&P® Limited Maturity Municipal Bond Index. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to the Fund’s secondary benchmark, the S&P® Limited Maturity Municipal Bond Index. |
• | The Fund’s underperformance relative to its secondary benchmark index was attributable to duration positioning (managing interest rate risk). Specifically, the Fund was underweight relative to its index in the three-year area of the yield curve, which generated strong performance for the period. The Fund’s underweight in pre-refunded issues also hindered results. |
• | Conversely, sector allocation decisions had a positive impact on performance as the Fund’s holdings of corporate-backed, transportation and tax-backed issues performed well during the period. Additionally, the Fund’s overweight to State of California general obligation bonds enhanced results as the state’s financial picture continued to improve. |
• | The first half of the 12-month period was challenging for the municipal market due to heightened volatility initially driven by a rise in interest rates and subsequently exacerbated by credit events in the municipal markets. Although these trends reversed in the first half of 2014, portfolio activity throughout the 12-month period remained focused on protecting the Fund from market volatility and increasing the Fund’s credit quality bias. |
• | As of period end, the Fund held a minimal level of cash reserves and its portfolio of holdings reflected a modestly longer duration relative to the S&P® Limited Maturity Municipal Bond Index. |

Fund Summary as of June 30, 2014 | BlackRock New York Municipal Bond Fund |
Investment Objective
Portfolio Management Commentary
• | For the 12-month period ended June 30, 2014, all share classes of the Fund outperformed its primary benchmark, the S&P® Municipal Bond Index, while the Fund’s Institutional and Investor A1 Shares performed in-line with its new secondary benchmark, the Custom Index, and the Fund’s Investor A, Investor C and Investor C1 Shares underperformed the Custom Index. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to the Custom Index. |
• | The Fund’s exposure to Puerto Rico government-related debt, although limited, detracted from results as credit spreads on these securities widened materially due to investor’s lack of confidence and a weak local economy. These positions were eliminated early in the period. The Fund’s use of U.S. Treasury futures contracts to manage interest rate risk had a modestly negative impact on results. |
• | The largest contributors to the Fund’s performance were duration (interest rate sensitivity) and yield curve positioning. The latter half of 2013 witnessed a sharp rise in yields and steepening of the municipal yield curve, causing bond prices to fall. However, this trend reversed markedly in the first half of 2014, with municipal yields declining significantly while the yield curve flattened and more than reversed the steepening exhibited in the first half of the 12-month period. In this environment, the Fund’s longer duration and yield curve flattening overall resulted in positive performance for the period. |
• | During the first half of the 12-month period, portfolio activity was largely in response to rising interest rates and the industry-wide trend of mutual fund outflows. Given these conditions, the Fund sold lower-yielding positions with longer durations and participated in new issues to improve diversification, yield, quality and structure. In the second half of the performance period, rates fell significantly and new municipal bond issuance also declined from prior periods. As a result, overall portfolio activity was lower, but focused on selling previously out-of-favor issues that saw renewed interest as rates declined. |
• | Relative to the Custom Index, the Fund ended the period with a neutral-to-long duration bias and greater exposure to the long end of the yield curve. |

For Fund compliance purposes, the Fund’s sector classifications refer to any one or more of the sector sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or rating group indexes, and/or as defined by the investment advisor. These definitions may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine such sector sub-classifications for reporting ease. |

1 | For financial reporting purposes, credit quality ratings shown above reflect the highest rating assigned by either S&P or Moody’s if ratings differ. These rating agencies are independent, nationally recognized statistical rating organizations and are widely used. Investment grade ratings are credit ratings of BBB/Baa or higher. Below investment grade ratings are credit ratings of BB/Ba or lower. Investments designated N/R are not rated by either rating agency. Unrated investments do not necessarily indicate low credit quality. Credit quality ratings are subject to change. |
2 | The investment advisor evaluates the credit quality of unrated investments based upon certain factors including, but not limited to, credit ratings for similar investments and financial analysis of sectors and individual investments. Using this approach, the investment advisor has deemed certain of these unrated securities as investment grade quality. As of June 30, 2014, the market value of unrated securities deemed by the investment advisor to be investment grade was $3,599,554, representing 1% of the Fund’s long-term investments. |

• | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) | |||
• | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Fund’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments) |
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. | ||||
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Fund’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Fund’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, please refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements. | ||||

• | Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows: |
• | Level 1 — unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access | |||||
• | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) | |||||
• | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Fund’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments) |
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. | ||||||
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Fund’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instrument and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Fund’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, please refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements. |

• | Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows: |
• | Level 1 — unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access | |||
• | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) | |||
• | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Fund’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments) |
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. | ||||
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Fund’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Fund’s policy regarding valuation of investments, please refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements. |

For Fund compliance purposes, the Fund’s sector classifications refer to any one or more of the sector sub-classifications used by one or more widely recognized market indexes or rating group indexes, and/or as defined by the investment advisor. These definitions may not apply for purposes of this report, which may combine such sector sub-classifications for reporting ease. | ||||
• | Fair Value Measurements — Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a disclosure hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial statement purposes as follows: |
• | Level 1 — unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access | |||
• | Level 2 — other observable inputs (including, but not limited to, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities (such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or other market-corroborated inputs) | |||
• | Level 3 — unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Fund’s own assumptions used in determining the fair value of investments and derivative financial instruments) |
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the fair value hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. | ||||
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy. In accordance with the Fund’s policy, transfers between different levels of the fair value disclosure hierarchy are deemed to have occurred as of the beginning of the reporting period. The categorization of a value determined for investments and derivative financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the investment and derivative financial instruments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. For information about the Fund’s policy regarding valuation of investments and derivative financial instruments, please refer to Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements. | ||||

The uniform percentage applicable to a breakpoint level is determined by dividing the amount of the aggregate average daily net assets of the two combined Funds that falls within that breakpoint level by the aggregate average daily net assets of the two combined Funds. The amount of the fee for a Fund at each breakpoint level is determined by multiplying the average daily net assets of that Fund by the uniform percentage applicable to that breakpoint level and multiplying the product by the advisory fee rate. |

1 | The Funds designate these amounts paid during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, as exempt-interest dividends. |
2 | Ordinary income consists primarily of taxable income recognized from market discount. Additionally, all ordinary income distributions are comprised of interest related dividends for non-U.S. residents and are eligible for exemption from U.S. withholding tax for nonresident aliens and foreign corporations. |

3 | The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized gains was attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, amortization methods for premiums and discounts on fixed income securities, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains/losses on certain futures contracts, the accrual of income on securities in default and the treatment of residual interests in tender option bond trusts. |
4 | The Funds have elected to defer certain qualified late-year losses and recognize such losses in the year ending June 30, 2015. |

Item 2 – Code of Ethics – The registrant (or the “Fund”) has adopted a code of ethics, as of the end of the period covered by this report, applicable to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. During the period covered by this report, there have been no amendments to or waivers granted under the code of ethics. A copy of the code of ethics is available without charge at www.blackrock.com.
Item 3 – Audit Committee Financial Expert – The registrant’s board of trustees (the “board of trustees”), has determined that (i) the registrant has the following audit committee financial experts serving on its audit committee and (ii) each audit committee financial expert is independent:
Robert M. Hernandez
Fred G. Weiss
Stuart E. Eizenstat
Under applicable securities laws, a person determined to be an audit committee financial expert will not be deemed an “expert” for any purpose, including without limitation for the purposes of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as a result of being designated or identified as an audit committee financial expert. The designation or identification of a person as an audit committee financial expert does not impose on such person any duties, obligations, or liabilities greater than the duties, obligations, and liabilities imposed on such person as a member of the audit committee and board of trustees in the absence of such designation or identification.
Item 4 – Principal Accountant Fees and Services
The following table presents fees billed by Deloitte & Touche LLP (“D&T”) in each of the last two fiscal years for the services rendered to the Fund:
(a) Audit Fees | (b) Audit-Related Fees1 | (c) Tax Fees2 | (d) All Other Fees3 | |||||
Entity Name | Current Fiscal Year End | Previous Fiscal Year End | Current Fiscal Year End | Previous Fiscal Year End | Current Fiscal Year End | Previous Fiscal Year End | Current Fiscal Year End | Previous Fiscal Year End |
BlackRock New York Municipal Bond Fund of BlackRock Multi-State Municipal Series Trust | $30,763 | $30,063 | $0 | $0 | $12,600 | $12,600 | $0 | $0 |
The following table presents fees billed by D&T that were required to be approved by the registrant’s audit committee (the “Committee”) for services that relate directly to the operations or financial reporting of the Fund and that are rendered on behalf of BlackRock Advisors, LLC (“Investment Adviser” or “BlackRock”) and entities controlling, controlled by, or under common control with BlackRock (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) that provide ongoing services to the Fund (“Fund Service Providers”):

(b) Audit-Related Fees1 | $0 | $0 |
(c) Tax Fees2 | $0 | $0 |
(d) All Other Fees3 | $2,555,000 | $2,865,000 |

3 Aggregate fees borne by BlackRock in connection with the review of compliance procedures and attestation thereto performed by D&T with respect to all of the registered closed-end funds and some of the registered open-end funds advised by BlackRock.
(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures:
The Committee has adopted policies and procedures with regard to the pre-approval of services. Audit, audit-related and tax compliance services provided to the registrant on an annual basis require specific pre-approval by the Committee. The Committee also must approve other non-audit services provided to the registrant and those non-audit services provided to the Investment Adviser and Fund Service Providers that relate directly to the operations and the financial reporting of the registrant. Certain of these non-audit services that the Committee believes are (a) consistent with the SEC’s auditor independence rules and (b) routine and recurring services that will not impair the independence of the independent accountants may be approved by the Committee without consideration on a specific case-by-case basis (“general pre-approval”). The term of any general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of the pre-approval, unless the Committee provides for a different period. Tax or other non-audit services provided to the registrant which have a direct impact on the operations or financial reporting of the registrant will only be deemed pre-approved provided that any individual project does not exceed $10,000 attributable to the registrant or $50,000 per project. For this purpose, multiple projects will be aggregated to determine if they exceed the previously mentioned cost levels.
Any proposed services exceeding the pre-approved cost levels will require specific pre-approval by the Committee, as will any other services not subject to general pre-approval (e.g., unanticipated but permissible services). The Committee is informed of each service approved subject to general pre-approval at the next regularly scheduled in-person board meeting. At this meeting, an analysis of such services is presented to the Committee for ratification. The Committee may delegate to the Committee Chairman the authority to approve the provision of and fees for any specific engagement of permitted non-audit services, including services exceeding pre-approved cost levels. |
(e)(2) None of the services described in each of Items 4(b) through (d) were approved by the Committee pursuant to the de minimis exception in paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
(f) Not Applicable
(g) The aggregate non-audit fees paid to the accountant for services rendered by the accountant to the registrant, the Investment Adviser and the Fund Service Providers were:
3 |
Entity Name | Current Fiscal Year End | Previous Fiscal Year End |
BlackRock New York Municipal Bond Fund of BlackRock Multi-State Municipal Series Trust | $12,600 | $12,600 |
Additionally, SSAE 16 Review (Formerly, SAS No. 70) fees for the current and previous fiscal years of $2,555,000 and $2,865,000, respectively, were billed by D&T to the Investment Adviser. | |
(h) The Committee has considered and determined that the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Investment Adviser and the Fund Service Providers that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence. | |
Item 5 – | Audit Committee of Listed Registrants – Not Applicable |
Item 6 – | Investments |
(a) The registrant’s Schedule of Investments is included as part of the Report to Stockholders filed under Item 1 of this Form. | |
