The Markets in Review
Dear Shareholder,
The 12-month reporting period as of December 31, 2020 has been a time of sudden change in global financial markets, as the emergence and spread of the coronavirus (or “COVID-19”) led to a vast disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The threat from the coronavirus became increasingly apparent throughout February and March 2020, and countries around the world took economically disruptive countermeasures. Stay-at-home orders and closures of non-essential businesses became widespread, many workers were laid off, and unemployment claims spiked, causing a global recession and a sharp fall in equity prices.
After markets hit their lowest point of the reporting period in late March 2020, a steady recovery ensued, as businesses began to re-open and governments learned to adapt to life with the virus. Equity prices continued to rise throughout the summer, fed by strong fiscal and monetary support and improving economic indicators. Many equity indices neared or surpassed all-time highs late in the reporting period following a series of successful vaccine trials and passage of additional stimulus. In the United States, both large- and small-capitalization stocks posted a significant advance. International equities from developed economies grew at a more modest pace, lagging emerging market stocks, which rebounded sharply.
During the market downturn, the performance of different types of fixed-income securities initially diverged due to a reduced investor appetite for risk. U.S. Treasuries benefited from the risk-off environment, and posted solid returns, as the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield (which is inversely related to bond prices) touched an all-time low. In the corporate bond market, support from the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) assuaged credit concerns and both investment-grade and high-yield bonds recovered to post positive returns.
Following the coronavirus outbreak, the Fed instituted two emergency interest rate cuts, pushing short-term interest rates, already low as the year began, close to zero. To stabilize credit markets, the Fed also implemented a new bond-buying program, as did several other central banks around the world, including the European Central Bank and the Bank of Japan.
Looking ahead, while coronavirus-related disruptions have clearly hindered worldwide economic growth, we believe that the global expansion is likely to accelerate as vaccination efforts get under way. The results of the U.S. elections also cleared the way for additional stimulus spending in 2021, which is likely to be a solid tailwind for economic growth. Inflation should increase as the expansion continues, but a shift in central bank policy means that moderate inflation is less likely to be followed by interest rate hikes that could threaten the equity expansion.
Overall, we favor a positive stance toward risk, with an overweight in both equities and credit. We see U.S. and Asian equities benefiting from structural growth trends in tech, while emerging markets should be particularly helped by a vaccine-led economic expansion. In credit, rising inflation should provide tailwinds for inflation-protected bonds, and Euro area peripherals and Asian bonds also provide attractive opportunities. We believe that international diversification and a focus on sustainability can help provide portfolio resilience, and the disruption created by the coronavirus appears to be accelerating the shift toward sustainable investments.
In this environment, our view is that investors need to think globally, extend their scope across a broad array of asset classes, and be nimble as market conditions change. We encourage you to talk with your financial advisor and visit blackrock.com for further insight about investing in today’s markets.

Fund Summary as of December 31, 2020 | | BlackRock High Yield Municipal Fund |
Investment Objective
BlackRock High Yield Municipal Fund’s (the “Fund”) investment objective is to provide shareholders with as high a level of income exempt from Federal income taxes as is consistent with the investment policies of the Fund.
Portfolio Management Commentary
How did the Fund perform?
For the six-month period ended December 31, 2020, all of the Fund’s share classes outperformed the primary benchmark, the S&P® Municipal Bond Index. With the exception of the Fund’s Investor C Shares, which underperformed, all of the Fund’s share classes outperformed the secondary benchmark, the Custom High Yield Index. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to the Custom High Yield Index.
What factors influenced performance?
High-yield municipal bonds delivered positive returns in the second half of 2020. Although U.S. Treasury yields moved slightly higher (as prices fell), lower-rated tax-exempt issues registered a healthy gain due to a decline in yield spreads. Investors grew increasingly optimistic about the economic outlook for 2021, especially after the approval of a vaccine for COVID-19 in early November 2020, fueling continued inflows into the asset class. High-yield municipal bonds outpaced the broader tax-exempt category, as the favorable backdrop increased investors’ willingness to take risk.
Positions in longer-dated securities with maturities of 20 years and above contributed to Fund performance. Holdings in investment-grade issues, particularly those at the lower end of the investment-grade spectrum, also aided results. At the sector level, the largest contributions came from utilities, state tax-backed, education and corporate-related debt. The Fund’s duration (interest-rate sensitivity) was above that of the benchmark, which further contributed.
The Fund’s underweight in unrated and BB rated securities detracted from Fund performance. Underweights in the five- to 15-year maturity range and the local tax-backed sector also weighed on relative performance.
Describe recent portfolio activity.
The investment adviser capitalized on heavy new-issue supply in the weeks leading up to the U.S. national elections, which brought the portfolio’s cash position below 2% of assets. This move raised the portfolio’s duration and added credit risk in response to the market’s improving fundamentals.
Describe portfolio positioning at period end.
The Fund was positioned more aggressively than its benchmark. In addition to having a longer duration, the Fund had higher exposure to credit risk via increased weightings in non-investment grade and unrated securities. The Fund maintained meaningful positions in both Puerto Rico and the tobacco sector.

Portfolio Management Commentary
How did the Fund perform?
For the six-month period ended December 31, 2020, the Fund outperformed the primary benchmark, the S&P® Municipal Bond Index, but it underperformed the secondary benchmark, the Custom National Index, except for the Fund’s Institutional Shares, which performed in line with the Custom National Index. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to the Custom National Index.
What factors influenced performance?
Municipal bonds delivered positive returns in the second half of 2020. Although U.S. Treasury yields moved slightly higher (as prices fell), the tax-exempt market posted a gain due to a decline in yield spreads. Investors grew increasingly optimistic about the economic outlook for 2021, particularly after the approval of a vaccine for COVID-19 in early November 2020, fueling continued inflows into the market.
The Fund benefited from its holdings in longer-duration, longer-maturity securities. (Duration is a measure of interest rate sensitivity.) The Fund’s use of U.S. Treasury futures to manage interest rate risk also aided performance given that Treasury yields rose even as municipal bonds gained ground. This represents a shift from the trends that were in place in the first half of 2020.
At the sector level, the Fund was helped by its positions in the health care, transportation and corporate-backed sectors. Positions in bonds with shorter call dates—a market segment that benefited from rising demand as the period progressed—also added value. (A call is when an issuer redeems a bond prior to its maturity date.) An allocation to high-yield bonds and lower-rated investment-grade securities was a further plus, as investors were willing to move down in credit quality in order to earn higher income.
The Fund’s above-average cash position detracted from performance in the rising market. The Fund’s allocation in bonds with maturities of five years and less, which lagged the broader market, also detracted.
Describe recent portfolio activity.
The investment adviser continued to focus on constructing a balanced, higher-quality and income-oriented portfolio. The investment adviser increased the Fund’s cash position to provide liquidity as the coronavirus weighed on the economy and endangered the tax revenues of state and local municipalities. However, for most issuers this threat did not in fact materialize. The investment adviser raised the Fund’s allocation to high-yield bonds from 10% to 12% on the belief that this segment offered a greater representation of attractively valued securities.
Describe portfolio positioning at period end.
The Fund had an average credit quality of A+, and it held an 8.3% weighting in bonds subject to the alternative minimum tax. Duration stood at 6.0 years as of December 31, 2020, in line with the benchmark. Leverage was 2.5% of assets, unchanged compared to June 30, 2020. The portfolio was overweight in the corporate-backed and transportation sectors, while its largest underweight was in the state tax-backed category.
The views expressed reflect the opinions of BlackRock as of the date of this report and are subject to change based on changes in market, economic or other conditions. These views are not intended to be a forecast of future events and are no guarantee of future results.

Fund Summary as of December 31, 2020 | | BlackRock NewYork Municipal Opportunities Fund |

Portfolio Management Commentary
How did the Fund perform?
For the six-month period ended December 31, 2020, the Fund outperformed the primary benchmark, the S&P® Municipal Bond Index, and the secondary benchmark, the S&P® New York Municipal Bond Index. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to the Fund’s secondary benchmark, the S&P® New York Municipal Bond Index.
What factors influenced performance?
Municipal bonds delivered positive returns in the second half of 2020. Although U.S. Treasury yields moved slightly higher (as prices fell), the tax-exempt market posted a gain due to a decline in yield spreads. Investors grew increasingly optimistic about the economic outlook for 2021, particularly after the approval of a vaccine for COVID-19 in early November 2020, fueling continued inflows into the market.
New York municipal bonds performed in line with the national market. Although New York continued to face a budget deficit that is likely to result in tax increases, the state’s ability to close budget gaps is enhanced by various positive attributes. The most notable among these is a broad and diverse economic base that produces high wealth levels. Low unfunded pension liability relative to other states is another plus, although it is offset by a higher debt burden and low reserves.
The Fund’s security selection and sector allocations both contributed to Fund performance. In terms of selection, the Fund’s positions in the tax-backed state sector outperformed due to the strength in certain Puerto Rico issues. Selection in the utilities sector also helped the Fund’s results. With regard to allocation, the Fund’s tobacco sector holdings contributed positively. In general, lower-rated debt—including many tobacco issues—outpaced higher-quality issues. The Fund’s use of U.S. Treasury futures to manage interest rate risk also aided performance given that Treasury yields rose even as municipal bonds gained ground. An overweight in the longer end of the municipal yield curve was an additional contributor.
The Fund experienced a small, negative impact from its security selection in the transportation sector. The portfolio’s cash position, while limited, nonetheless detracted somewhat at a time of positive returns for the market as a whole.
Describe recent portfolio activity.
Portfolio activity was largely driven by the investment adviser’s efforts to put cash to work by capitalizing on relative valuations and opportunities created by new issuance. At the beginning of the period, municipal bonds enjoyed strong performance from typical seasonal trends, but the tone began to fade in early August 2020 once additional Federal aid was not delivered as expected. During the later parts of the summer and early autumn, municipal valuations became attractive as yields rose, yield spreads widened, and the new-issue calendar grew. The Fund sought to take advantage of these developments by buying longer-duration issues and selling shorter-duration securities. (Duration is a measure of interest-rate sensitivity.) The Fund also added to its holdings in Puerto Rico over the course of the period. Toward the end of 2020, especially after the November elections, municipal markets exhibited a very strong tone and valuations became much less compelling. The Fund favored selling longer-duration holdings during this time.
Describe portfolio positioning at period end.
The Fund was overweight in longer-maturity bonds, particularly in the 15- to 25-year area, albeit to a lesser extent than it was earlier in the period. It was underweight in intermediate-term issues and overweight in bonds with lower credit quality (A-rated and below). The portfolio’s duration was lower than that of the benchmark.

Portfolio Management Commentary
How did the Fund perform?
For the six-month period ended December 31, 2020, the Fund underperformed its primary benchmark, the S&P Municipal Bond Index. For the same period, the Fund’s Institutional, Investor A1 and Class K Shares performed in line with the secondary benchmark, the S&P Limited Maturity Municipal Bond Index, while the Fund’s Investor A and Investor C Shares underperformed. The following discussion of relative performance pertains to the Fund’s secondary benchmark, the S&P Limited Maturity Municipal Bond Index.
What factors influenced performance?
Municipal bonds delivered positive returns in the second half of 2020. Although U.S. Treasury yields moved slightly higher (as prices fell), tax-exempt market posted a gain due to a decline in yield spreads. Investors grew increasingly optimistic about the economic outlook for 2021, particularly after the approval of a vaccine for COVID-19 in early November 2020, fueling continued inflows into the market. Contrary to the trends in the U.S. Treasury market, short-term municipal bonds underperformed longer-term issues.
The Fund’s overweight allocation to A and BBB rated bonds added value, as lower-rated investment-grade debt generally outperformed. In this same vein, a position in non-rated municipal operating notes with underlying ratings of A and AA was also additive. (Operating notes are bonds used to fund specific projects.) At the sector level, overweight positions in the school district, health care, corporate-backed and housing sectors contributed positively. Security selection helped performance as well.
The Fund’s underweight in AAA rated bonds detracted from Fund performance. Underweight positions in pre-refunded debt and the state and local tax-backed sectors also hurt results, as did underweights in transportation and utilities. An underweight in the three- to four-year part of the yield curve, which led the portfolio to have lower interest-rate sensitivity than the benchmark, was another detractor of note.
Describe recent portfolio activity.
The Fed kept the federal funds rate near zero, maintained its programs to support the both financial-market liquidity and the economy as a whole, and pledged to use all the tools at its disposal to keep the economy stable. In addition, Congress provided additional fiscal stimulus in December 2020. Taken together, these actions helped offset the persistent economic effects of the coronavirus pandemic in the second half of the year.
With this as the backdrop, the Fund’s investment adviser increased the portfolio’s duration in anticipation of an extended period of low interest rates. (Duration is a measure of interest-rate sensitivity.) Since there was a limited degree of new issuance in the zero- to four-year portion of the yield curve, the investment adviser focused on using the secondary market as a source of opportunity and a way to put new cash inflows to work.
The low-rate environment also prompted the investment adviser to increase the portfolio’s weighting in A and BBB rated debt. However, it was more selective in its pursuit of municipal operating notes as yield spreads became less attractive due to elevated investor demand. The Fund’s weighting in this area stood at approximately 15% at the close of the period.
Describe portfolio positioning at period end.
The Fund ended the year with an allocation of approximately 20% in variable rate demand notes (“VRDNs”). The investment adviser used VRDNs as an investment alternative while pursing opportunities in longer-dated issues. VRDNs offer yields similar to those of one-year AAA rated bonds, but with no price volatility and lower sensitivity to rising interest rates. With that said, the investment adviser reduced the portfolio’s weighting in this area during the course of the period.
At the end of December 2020, the Fund held 32% of assets in securities maturing in less than a year and 15% in those with maturities of one to two years. Its weightings in the two- to three-year and three- to four-year portions of the curve were 21% and 10%, respectively. The Fund maintained overweight positions in A and BBB rated debt.

(b) | For financial reporting purposes, credit quality ratings shown above reflect the highest rating assigned by either S&P Global Ratings or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. 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. |
(c) | Rounds to less than 1% of long-term investments. |
(d) | The investment adviser 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 adviser has deemed certain of these unrated securities as investment grade quality. As of December 31, 2020, the market value of unrated securities deemed by the investment adviser to be investment grade represents less than 1% of the Fund’s total investments. |

About Fund Performance
Institutional and Class K Shares are not subject to any sales charge. These shares bear no ongoing distribution or service fees and are available only to certain eligible investors. BlackRock High Yield Municipal Fund’s and BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund’s Class K Share performance shown prior to the Class K shares inception date of January 25, 2018 is that of the respective Fund’s Institutional Shares. BlackRock National Municipal Fund’s Class K Share performance shown prior to the Class K shares inception date of July 18, 2011 is that of Institutional Shares. The performance of each Fund’s Class K Shares would be substantially similar to Institutional Shares because Class K Shares and Institutional Shares invest in the same portfolio of securities and performance would only differ to the extent that Class K Shares and Institutional Shares have different expenses. The actual returns of Class K Shares would have been higher than those of the Institutional Shares because Class K Shares have lower expenses than the Institutional Shares. On the close of business on August 15, 2016, all of the issued and outstanding BlackRock Shares of BlackRock National Municipal Fund were redesignated as Class K Shares.
Service Shares (available only in BlackRock National Municipal Fund) are not subject to any sales charge. These shares are subject to a service fee of 0.25% per year (but no distribution fee) and are only available to certain eligible investors. Prior to July 18, 2011, Service Share performance results are those of the Institutional Shares restated to reflect Service Share fees.
Investor A Shares are subject to a maximum initial sales charge (front-end load) of 4.25% for all Funds except BlackRock Short-Term Municipal Fund, which incurs a 3.00% maximum initial sales charge, and all Funds incur a service fee of 0.25% per year (but no distribution fee). Certain redemptions of these shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) where no initial sales charge was paid at the time of purchase. These shares are generally available through financial intermediaries.
Investor A1 Shares (available only in BlackRock Short-Term Municipal Fund and BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund) are subject to a maximum initial sales charge (front-end load) of 1.00% for BlackRock Short-Term Municipal Fund and 4.00% for BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund and a service fee of 0.10% per year (but no distribution fee). The maximum initial sales charge does not apply to current eligible investors of Investor A1 Shares of the Funds. These shares are only available for dividend and capital gain reinvestment by existing shareholders and for purchase by certain eligible employer-sponsored retirement plans. Certain redemptions of these shares may be subject to a CDSC where no initial sales charge was paid at the time of purchase. However, the CDSC does not apply to redemptions by certain employer-sponsored retirement plans or to redemptions of shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends and capital gains by existing shareholders.
Investor C Shares are subject to a 1.00% CDSC if redeemed within one year of purchase. In addition, these shares are subject to a distribution fee of 0.75% per year and a service fee of 0.25% per year. These shares are generally available through financial intermediaries. These shares automatically convert to Investor A Shares after approximately eight years.
Past performance is not an indication of future results. Financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and trading in many instruments has been disrupted. These circumstances may continue for an extended period of time, and may continue to affect adversely the value and liquidity of the fund’s investments. As a result, current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Refer to blackrock.com to obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end. Performance results do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. Figures shown in the performance tables on the previous pages assume reinvestment of all distributions, if any, at net asset value (“NAV”) on the ex-dividend date or payable date, as applicable. Investment return and principal value of shares will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Distributions paid to each class of shares will vary because of the different levels of service, distribution and transfer agency fees applicable to each class, which are deducted from the income available to be paid to shareholders.
BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), each Fund’s investment adviser, has contractually and/or voluntarily agreed to waive and/or reimburse a portion of each Fund’s expenses. Without such waivers and/or reimbursements, each Fund’s performance would have been lower. With respect to each Fund’s voluntary waiver(s), if any, the Manager is under no obligation to waive and/or reimburse or to continue waiving and/or reimbursing its fees and such voluntary waiver(s) may be reduced or discontinued at any time. With respect to each Fund’s contractual waiver(s), if any, the Manager is under no obligation to continue waiving and/or reimbursing its fees after the applicable termination date of such agreement. See the Notes to Financial Statements for additional information on waivers and/or reimbursements.
The standardized 30-day yield includes the effects of any waivers and/or reimbursements. The unsubsidized 30-day yield excludes the effects of any waivers and/or reimbursements.

Disclosure of Expenses
Shareholders of each Fund may incur the following charges: (a) transactional expenses, such as sales charges; and (b) operating expenses, including investment advisory fees, service and distribution fees, 12b-1 fees, acquired fund fees and expenses, and other fund expenses. The expense examples shown (which are based on a hypothetical investment of $1,000 invested on July 1, 2020 and held through December 31, 2020) are intended to assist shareholders both in calculating expenses based on an investment in each Fund and in comparing these expenses with similar costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The expense examples provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. In order to estimate the expenses a shareholder paid during the period covered by this report, shareholders can divide their account value by $1,000 and then multiply the result by the number corresponding to their Fund and share class under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period.”
The expense examples also provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses. In order to assist shareholders in comparing the ongoing expenses of investing in these Funds and other funds, compare the 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.
The expenses shown in the expense examples are intended to highlight shareholders’ ongoing costs only and do not reflect transactional expenses, such as sales charges, if any. Therefore, the hypothetical examples are useful in comparing ongoing expenses only, and will not help shareholders determine the relative total expenses of owning different funds. If these transactional expenses were included, shareholder expenses would have been higher.

The Benefits and Risks of Leveraging
The Funds may utilize leverage to seek to enhance returns and net asset value (“NAV”). However, there is no guarantee that these objectives cannot be achieved in all interest rate environments.
Each of BlackRock High Yield Fund, BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund and BlackRock National Municipal Fund may leverage its assets through the use of proceeds received in tender option bond (“TOB”) transactions, as described in the Notes to Financial Statements. In a TOB Trust transaction, each Fund transfers municipal bonds or other municipal securities into a special purpose entity (a “TOB Trust”). TOB investments generally provide each Fund with economic benefits in periods of declining short-term interest rates, but expose each Fund to risks during periods of rising short-term interest rates. Additionally, fluctuations in the market value of municipal bonds deposited into a TOB Trust may adversely affect each Fund’s NAV per share.
In general, the concept of leveraging is based on the premise that the financing cost of leverage, which is based on short-term interest rates, is normally lower than the income earned by each Fund on its longer-term portfolio investments purchased with the proceeds from leverage. To the extent that the total assets of each Fund (including the assets obtained from leverage) are invested in higher-yielding portfolio investments, the Fund’s shareholders benefit from the incremental net income.
The interest earned on securities purchased with the proceeds from leverage is distributed to the Funds’ shareholders, and the value of these portfolio holdings is reflected in each Fund’s per share NAV. However, in order to benefit shareholders, the return on assets purchased with leverage proceeds must exceed the ongoing costs associated with the leverage. If interest and other ongoing costs of leverage exceed a Fund’s return on assets purchased with leverage proceeds, income to shareholders is lower than if the Fund had not used leverage.
Furthermore, the value of each Fund’s portfolio investments generally varies inversely with the direction of long-term interest rates, although other factors can also influence the value of portfolio investments. As a result, changes in interest rates can influence each Fund’s NAV positively or negatively in addition to the impact on each Fund’s performance from leverage. Changes in the direction of interest rates are difficult to predict accurately, and there is no assurance that a Fund’s leveraging strategy will be successful.
The use of leverage also generally causes greater changes in each Fund’s NAV and dividend rates than comparable portfolios without leverage. In a declining market, leverage is likely to cause a greater decline in the NAV of a Fund’s shares than if the Fund was not leveraged. In addition, each Fund may be required to sell portfolio securities at inopportune times or at distressed values in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to the use of leverage or as required by the terms of the leverage instruments, which may cause the Funds to incur losses. The use of leverage may limit a Fund’s ability to invest in certain types of securities or use certain types of hedging strategies. Each Fund incurs expenses in connection with the use of leverage, all of which are borne by each Fund’s shareholders and may reduce income.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Funds may invest in various derivative financial instruments. These instruments are used to obtain exposure to a security, commodity, index, market, and/or other assets without owning or taking physical custody of securities, commodities and/or other referenced assets or to manage market, equity, credit, interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate, commodity and/or other risks. Derivative financial instruments may give rise to a form of economic leverage and involve risks, including the imperfect correlation between the value of a derivative financial instrument and the underlying asset, possible default of the counterparty to the transaction or illiquidity of the instrument. The Funds’ successful use of a derivative financial instrument depends on the investment adviser’s ability to predict pertinent market movements accurately, which cannot be assured. The use of these instruments may result in losses greater than if they had not been used, may limit the amount of appreciation a Fund can realize on an investment and/or may result in lower distributions paid to shareholders. The Funds’ investments in these instruments, if any, are discussed in detail in the Notes to Financial Statements.

For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund were recorded at fair value. However, the cost basis of the investments received from the Target Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
The net assets of BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund before the reorganization were $1,548,364,641. The aggregate net assets of BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund immediately after the reorganization amounted to $1,592,267,450. The Target Fund’s fair value and cost of financial instruments prior to the reorganization were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
Target Fund | | Fair Value of Investments | | | Cost of Investments | |
BlackRock New York Municipal Bond Trust | | $ | 53,220,158 | | | $ | 48,329,859 | |
The purpose of these transactions was to combine funds managed by the Manager with the same or substantially similar (but not identical) investment objectives, investment policies, strategies, risks and restrictions. The reorganization was a tax-free event and was effective on October 23, 2020.
Assuming the reorganization had been completed on July 1, 2020, the beginning of the fiscal reporting period of BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund, the pro forma results of operations for the period ended December 31, 2020, are as follows:
• | | Net investment income: $ 19,268,135 |
• | | Net realized and change in unrealized loss on investments: $ 61,130,655 |
• | | Net increase in net assets resulting from operations: $ 80,398,790 |
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the reorganization was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Target Fund that have been included in BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund’s Statement of Operations since October 26, 2020.
Reorganization costs incurred by BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund in connection with the reorganization were expensed by BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund. The Manager reimbursed the Fund $86,834, which is included in fees waived and/or reimbursed by the Manager in the Statements of Operations.
Prior Year Reorganization: The Board and shareholders of New York Municipal and the Board and shareholders of BlackRock Muni New York Intermediate Duration Fund, Inc. (the “Target Fund”) approved the reorganization of the Target Fund into New York Municipal. As a result, New York Municipal acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed substantially all of the liabilities of the Target Fund in exchange for an equal aggregate value of newly-issued shares of New York Municipal.
Each Common Shareholder of the Target Fund received shares of New York Municipal in an amount equal to the aggregate NAV of such Common Shareholder’s the Target Fund Common Shares, as determined at the close of business on June 19, 2020, less the costs of the Target Fund’s reorganization. Cash was distributed for any fractional shares.
The reorganization was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of shares of New York Municipal in the following amounts and at the following conversion ratios:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Target Fund | | MNE’s Share Class | | | Shares Prior to Reorganization | | | Conversion Ratio | | | Fund’s Share Class | | | Shares of the Fund | |

For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by New York Municipal were recorded at fair value. However, the cost basis of the investments received from the Target Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of New York Municipal’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
The net assets of New York Municipal before the reorganization were $1,622,641,229. The aggregate net assets of New York Municipal immediately after the reorganization amounted to $1,684,729,981. The Target Fund’s fair value and cost of investments prior to the reorganization was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

BlackRock Muni New York Intermediate Duration Fund, Inc. | | $ | 70,713,095 | | | | 66,961,872 | | | $ | 9,746,745 | |
The purpose of this transaction was to combine funds managed by the Manager with the same or substantially similar (but not identical) investment objectives, investment policies, strategies, risks and restrictions. The reorganization was a tax-free event and was effective on June 22, 2020.
Assuming the reorganization had been completed on July 1, 2019, the beginning of the fiscal reporting period of New York Municipal, the pro forma results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2020, are as follows:
| | |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | | 81 |

• | | Net investment income: $ 42,795,244 |
• | | Net realized and change in unrealized loss on investments: $ (110,826,573) |
• | | Net decrease in net assets resulting from operations: $ (68,031,329) |
Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the reorganization was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Target Fund that have been included in New York Municipal’s Statements of Operations since June 22, 2020.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which may require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Each Fund is considered an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies. Below is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Investment Transactions and Income Recognition: For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on the dates the transactions are executed. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined using the specific identification method. Dividend income and capital gain distributions, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date at fair value. Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts on debt securities, is recognized daily on an accrual basis. Income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class based on its relative net assets. For convertible securities, premiums attributable to the debt instrument are amortized, but premiums attributable to the conversion feature are not amortized.
Segregation and Collateralization: In cases where a Fund enters into certain investments (e.g., futures contracts,) or certain borrowings (e.g., TOB Trust transactions) that would be treated as “senior securities” for 1940 Act purposes, a Fund may segregate or designate on its books and records cash or liquid assets having a market value at least equal to the amount of its future obligations under such investments or borrowings. Doing so allows the investment or borrowings to be excluded from treatment as a “senior security.” Furthermore, if required by an exchange or counterparty agreement, the Funds may be required to deliver/deposit cash and/or securities to/with an exchange, or broker-dealer or custodian as collateral for certain investments or obligations.
Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared and paid monthly. Distributions of capital gains are recorded on the ex-dividend date and made at least annually. The character and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.
Deferred Compensation Plan: Under the Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) approved by each Fund’s Board, the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Funds, as defined in the 1940 Act (“Independent Directors”), may defer a portion of their annual complex-wide compensation. Deferred amounts earn an approximate return as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of certain funds in the BlackRock Fixed-Income Complex selected by the Independent Directors. This has the same economic effect for the Independent Directors as if the Independent Directors had invested the deferred amounts directly in certain funds in the BlackRock Fixed-Income Complex.
The Plan is not funded and obligations thereunder represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of each Fund, as applicable. Deferred compensation liabilities, if any, are included in the Directors’ and Officer’s fees payable in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and will remain as a liability of the Funds until such amounts are distributed in accordance with the Plan.
Indemnifications: In the normal course of business, a Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnification. A Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because it involves future potential claims against a Fund, which cannot be predicted with any certainty.
Other: Expenses directly related to a Fund or its classes are charged to that Fund or the applicable class. Expenses directly related to the Funds and other shared expenses prorated to the Funds are allocated daily to each class based on their relative net assets or other appropriate methods. Other operating expenses shared by several funds, including other funds managed by the Manager, are prorated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods.
3. | INVESTMENT VALUATION AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
Investment Valuation Policies: Each Fund’s investments are valued at fair value (also referred to as “market value” within the financial statements) each day that the Fund is open for business and, for financial reporting purposes, as of the report date. U.S. GAAP defines fair value as the price a fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Each Fund determines the fair values of its financial instruments using various independent dealers or pricing services under policies approved by the Board. If a security’s market price is not readily available or does not otherwise accurately represent the fair value of the security, the security will be valued in accordance with a policy approved by the Board as reflecting fair value. The BlackRock Global Valuation Methodologies Committee (the “Global Valuation Committee”) is the committee formed by management to develop global pricing policies and procedures and to oversee the pricing function for all financial instruments.
Fair Value Inputs and Methodologies: The following methods and inputs are used to establish the fair value of each Fund’s assets and liabilities:
| • | | Fixed-income investments for which market quotations are readily available are generally valued using the last available bid price or current market quotations provided by independent dealers or third party pricing services. Pricing services generally value fixed-income securities assuming orderly transactions of an institutional round |
| | |
82 | | 2 0 2 0 BLACK ROCK SEMI - ANNUAL REPORT TO SHAREHOLDERS |
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
| lot size, but a fund may hold or transact in such securities in smaller, odd lot sizes. Odd lots may trade at lower prices than institutional round lots. The pricing services may use matrix pricing or valuation models that utilize certain inputs and assumptions to derive values, including transaction data (e.g., recent representative bids and offers), market data, credit quality information, perceived market movements, news, and other relevant information. Certain fixed-income securities, including asset-backed and mortgage related securities may be valued based on valuation models that consider the estimated cash flows of each tranche of the entity, establish a benchmark yield and develop an estimated tranche specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche. The amortized cost method of valuation may be used with respect to debt obligations with sixty days or less remaining to maturity unless the Manager determines such method does not represent fair value. |
| • | | Investments in open-end U.S. mutual funds (including money market funds) are valued at that day’s published net asset value (“NAV”). |
| • | | Futures contracts are valued based on that day’s last reported settlement price on the exchange where the contract is traded. |
If events (e.g., a market closure, market volatility, company announcement or a natural disaster) occur that are expected to materially affect the value of such investment, or in the event that application of these methods of valuation results in a price for an investment that is deemed not to be representative of the market value of such investment, or if a price is not available, the investment will be valued by the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, in accordance with a policy approved by the Board as reflecting fair value (“Fair Valued Investments”). The fair valuation approaches that may be used by the Global Valuation Committee include market approach, income approach and cost approach. Valuation techniques such as discounted cash flow, use of market comparables and matrix pricing are types of valuation approaches and are typically used in determining fair value. When determining the price for Fair Valued Investments, the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, seeks to determine the price that each Fund might reasonably expect to receive or pay from the current sale or purchase of that asset or liability in an arm’s-length transaction. Fair value determinations shall be based upon all available factors that the Global Valuation Committee, or its delegate, deems relevant and consistent with the principles of fair value measurement. The pricing of all Fair Valued Investments is subsequently reported to the Board or a committee thereof on a quarterly basis.
Fair Value Hierarchy: Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of financial instruments. These inputs to valuation techniques are categorized into a fair value hierarchy consisting of three broad levels for financial reporting purposes as follows:
| • | | Level 1 – Unadjusted price quotations in active markets/exchanges for identical assets or liabilities that each 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); and |
| • | | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs based on the best information available in the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available (including the Global Valuation Committee’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of 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. Investments classified within Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs used by the Global Valuation Committee in determining the price for Fair Valued Investments. Level 3 investments include equity or debt issued by Private Companies that may not have a secondary market and/or may have a limited number of investors. The categorization of a value determined for financial instruments is based on the pricing transparency of the financial instruments and is not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities.
4. | SECURITIES AND OTHER INVESTMENTS |
Zero-Coupon Bonds: Zero-coupon bonds are normally issued at a significant discount from face value and do not provide for periodic interest payments. These bonds may experience greater volatility in market value than other debt obligations of similar maturity which provide for regular interest payments.
Forward Commitments, When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities: Certain Funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis and may purchase or sell securities on a forward commitment basis. Settlement of such transactions normally occurs within a month or more after the purchase or sale commitment is made. A Fund may purchase securities under such conditions with the intention of actually acquiring them, but may enter into a separate agreement to sell the securities before the settlement date. Since the value of securities purchased may fluctuate prior to settlement, a Fund may be required to pay more at settlement than the security is worth. In addition, a Fund is not entitled to any of the interest earned prior to settlement. When purchasing a security on a delayed delivery basis, a Fund assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations. In the event of default by the counterparty, a Fund’s maximum amount of loss is the unrealized appreciation of unsettled when-issued transactions.
Municipal Bonds Transferred to TOB Trusts: Certain Funds leverage their assets through the use of “TOB Trust” transactions. The funds transfer municipal bonds into a special purpose trust (a “TOB Trust”). A TOB Trust issues two classes of beneficial interests: short-term floating rate interests (“TOB Trust Certificates”), which are sold to third party investors, and residual inverse floating rate interests (“TOB Residuals”), which are issued to the participating funds that contributed the municipal bonds to the TOB Trust. The TOB Trust Certificates have interest rates that reset weekly and their holders have the option to tender such certificates to the TOB Trust for redemption at par and any accrued interest at each reset date. The TOB Residuals held by a fund provide the fund with the right to cause the holders of a proportional share of the TOB Trust Certificates to tender their certificates to the TOB Trust at par plus accrued interest. The funds may withdraw a corresponding share of the municipal bonds from the TOB Trust. Other funds managed by the investment adviser may also contribute municipal bonds to a TOB Trust into which a fund has contributed bonds. If multiple BlackRock-advised funds participate in the same TOB Trust, the economic rights and obligations under the TOB Residuals will be shared among the funds ratably in proportion to their participation in the TOB Trust.
| | |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | | 83 |
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
TOB Trusts are supported by a liquidity facility provided by a third party bank or other financial institution (the “Liquidity Provider”) that allows the holders of the TOB Trust Certificates to tender their certificates in exchange for payment of par plus accrued interest on any business day. The tendered TOB Trust Certificates are remarketed by a Remarketing Agent. In the event of a failed remarketing, the TOB Trust may draw upon a loan from the Liquidity Provider to purchase the tendered TOB Trust Certificates. Any loans made by the Liquidity Provider will be secured by the purchased TOB Trust Certificates held by the TOB Trust and will be subject to an increased interest rate based on number of days the loan is outstanding.
The TOB Trust may be collapsed without the consent of a fund, upon the occurrence of a termination event as defined in the TOB Trust agreement. Upon the occurrence of a termination event, a TOB Trust would be liquidated with the proceeds applied first to any accrued fees owed to the trustee of the TOB Trust, the Remarketing Agent and the Liquidity Provider. Upon certain termination events, TOB Trust Certificates holders will be paid before the TOB Residuals holders (i.e., the Funds) whereas in other termination events, TOB Trust Certificates holders and TOB Residuals holders will be paid pro rata.
While a fund’s investment policies and restrictions expressly permit investments in inverse floating rate securities, such as TOB Residuals, they restrict the ability of a fund to borrow money for purposes of making investments. Each fund’s transfer of the municipal bonds to a TOB Trust is considered a secured borrowing for financial reporting purposes. The cash received by the TOB Trust from the sale of the TOB Trust Certificates, less certain transaction expenses, is paid to a fund. A fund typically invests the cash received in additional municipal bonds.
Accounting for TOBTrusts: The municipal bonds deposited into a TOB Trust are presented in a fund’s Schedule of Investments and the TOB Trust Certificates are shown in Other Liabilities in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Any loans drawn by the TOB Trust pursuant to the liquidity facility to purchase tendered TOB Trust Certificates are shown as Loan for TOB Trust Certificates. The carrying amount of a fund’s payable to the holder of the TOB Trust Certificates, as reported in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as TOB Trust Certificates, approximates its fair value.
Interest income, including amortization and accretion of premiums and discounts, from the underlying municipal bonds is recorded by a fund on an accrual basis. Interest expense incurred on the TOB Trust transaction and other expenses related to remarketing, administration, trustee, liquidity and other services to a TOB Trust are shown as interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations. Fees paid upon creation of the TOB Trust are recorded as debt issuance costs and are amortized to interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations to the expected maturity of the TOB Trust. In connection with the restructurings of the TOB Trusts to non-bank sponsored TOB Trusts, a fund incurred non-recurring, legal and restructuring fees, which are recorded as interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations. Amounts recorded within interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations are:

| (a) | The municipal bonds transferred to a TOB Trust are generally high grade municipal bonds. In certain cases, when municipal bonds transferred are lower grade municipal bonds, the TOB Trust transaction may include a credit enhancement feature that provides for the timely payment of principal and interest on the bonds to the TOB Trust by a credit enhancement provider in the event of default of the municipal bond. The TOB Trust would be responsible for the payment of the credit enhancement fee and the funds, as TOB Residuals holders, would be responsible for reimbursement of any payments of principal and interest made by the credit enhancement provider. The maximum potential amounts owed by the funds, for such reimbursements, as applicable, are included in the maximum potential amounts disclosed for recourse TOB Trusts in the Schedules of Investments. | |
| (b) | TOB Trusts may be structured on a non-recourse or recourse basis. When a Fund invests in TOB Trusts on a non-recourse basis, the Liquidity Provider may be required to make a payment under the liquidity facility to allow the TOB Trust to repurchase TOB Trust Certificates. The Liquidity Provider will be reimbursed from the liquidation of bonds held in the TOB Trust. If a fund invests in a TOB Trust on a recourse basis, a fund enters into a reimbursement agreement with the Liquidity Provider where a fund is required to reimburse the Liquidity Provider for any shortfall between the amount paid by the Liquidity Provider and proceeds received from liquidation of municipal bonds held in the TOB Trust (the “Liquidation Shortfall”).As a result, if a fund invests in a recourse TOB Trust, a fund will bear the risk of loss with respect to any Liquidation Shortfall. If multiple funds participate in any such TOB Trust, these losses will be shared ratably, including the maximum potential amounts owed by a fund at December 31, 2020, in proportion to their participation in the TOB Trust. The recourse TOB Trusts are identified in the Schedules of Investments including the maximum potential amounts owed by a fund at December 31, 2020. | |

5. | DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The Funds engage in various portfolio investment strategies using derivative contracts both to increase the returns of the Funds and/or to manage their exposure to certain risks such as credit risk, equity risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, commodity price risk or other risks (e.g., inflation risk). Derivative financial instruments categorized by risk exposure are included in the Schedules of Investments. These contracts may be transacted on an exchange or over-the-counter (“OTC”).
Futures Contracts: Futures contracts are purchased or sold to gain exposure to, or manage exposure to, changes in interest rates (interest rate risk) and changes in the value of equity securities (equity risk) or foreign currencies (foreign currency exchange rate risk).
Futures contracts are exchange-traded agreements between the Funds and a counterparty to buy or sell a specific quantity of an underlying instrument at a specified price and on a specified date. Depending on the terms of a contract, it is settled either through physical delivery of the underlying instrument on the settlement date or by payment of a cash amount on the settlement date. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit initial margin with the broker in the form of cash or securities in an amount that varies depending on a contract’s size and risk profile. The initial margin deposit must then be maintained at an established level over the life of the contract. Amounts pledged, which are considered restricted, are included in cash pledged for futures contracts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.
Securities deposited as initial margin are designated in the Schedules of Investments and cash deposited, if any, are shown as cash pledged for futures contracts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Pursuant to the contract, the Funds agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in market value of the contract (“variation margin”). Variation margin is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and, if any, shown as variation margin receivable (or payable) on futures contracts in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. When the contract is closed, a realized gain or loss is recorded in the Statements of Operations equal to the difference between the notional amount of the contract at the time it was opened and the notional amount at the time it was closed. The use of futures contracts involves the risk of an imperfect correlation in the movements in the price of futures contracts and interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates or underlying assets.
6. | INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES |
Investment Advisory: The Corporation and the Trust, on behalf of the applicable Funds, entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Manager, the Funds’ investment adviser and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc. (“BlackRock”), to provide investment advisory and administrative services. The Manager is responsible for the management of each Fund’s portfolio and provides the personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of each Fund.
For such services, each Fund pays the Manager a monthly fee at an annual rate equal to the following percentages of the average daily value of each Fund’s net assets:
High Yield Municipal

Service and Distribution Fees: The Corporation and the Trust, on behalf of the applicable Funds, entered into a Distribution Agreement and a Distribution and Service Plan with BlackRock Investments, LLC (“BRIL”), an affiliate of the Manager. Pursuant to the Distribution and Service Plan and in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, each Fund pays BRIL ongoing service and distribution fees. The fees are accrued daily and paid monthly at annual rates based upon the average daily net assets of the relevant share class of the Fund as follows:

and restrictions. National Municipal, Short-Term Municipal and New York Municipal are currently permitted to borrow under the Interfund Lending Program. High Yield Municipal is currently permitted to borrow and lend under the Interfund Lending Program.
A lending BlackRock fund may lend in aggregate up to 15% of its net assets, but may not lend more than 5% of its net assets to any one borrowing fund through the Interfund Lending Program. A borrowing BlackRock fund may not borrow through the Interfund Lending Program or from any other source more than 33 1/3% of its total assets (or any lower threshold provided for by the fund’s investment restrictions). If a borrowing BlackRock fund’s total outstanding borrowings exceed 10% of its total assets, each of its outstanding interfund loans will be subject to collateralization of at least 102% of the outstanding principal value of the loan. All interfund loans are for temporary or emergency purposes and the interest rate to be charged will be the average of the highest current overnight repurchase agreement rate available to a lending fund and the bank loan rate, as calculated according to a formula established by the Board.
During the six months ended December 31, 2020, the Funds did not participate in the Interfund Lending Program.
Directors and Officers: Certain directors and/or officers of the Trust and the Corporation are directors and/or officers of BlackRock or its affiliates. The Funds reimburse the Manager for a portion of the compensation paid to the Trust’s and the Corporation’s Chief Compliance Officer, which is included in Directors and Officer in the Statements of Operations.
Other Transactions: The Funds may purchase securities from, or sell securities to, an affiliated fund provided the affiliation is due solely to having a common investment adviser, common officers, or common directors. For the six months ended December 31, 2020, the purchase and sale transactions and any net realized gains (losses) with affiliated funds in compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act were as follows:

It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no U.S. federal income tax provision is required.
Each Fund files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on each Fund’s U.S. federal tax returns generally remains open for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. The statutes of limitations on each Fund’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the jurisdiction.
Management has analyzed tax laws and regulations and their application to the Funds as of December 31, 2020, inclusive of the open tax return years, and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability in the Funds’ financial statements.
As of June 30, 2020, the Funds had non-expiring capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains as follows:

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
The Corporation and the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, along with certain other funds managed by the Manager and its affiliates (“Participating Funds”), is a party to a 364-day, $2.25 billion credit agreement with a group of lenders. Under this agreement, the Funds may borrow to fund shareholder redemptions. Excluding commitments designated for certain individual funds, the Participating Funds, including the Funds, can borrow up to an aggregate commitment amount of $1.75 billion at any time outstanding, subject to asset coverage and other limitations as specified in the agreement. The credit agreement has the following terms: a fee of 0.10% per annum on unused commitment amounts and interest at a rate equal to the higher of (a) one-month LIBOR (but, in any event, not less than 0.00%) on the date the loan is made plus 0.80% per annum or (b) the Fed Funds rate (but, in any event, not less than 0.00%) in effect from time to time plus 0.80% per annum on amounts borrowed. The agreement expires in April 2021 unless extended or renewed. These fees were allocated among such funds based upon portions of the aggregate commitment available to them and relative net assets of Participating Funds. During the six months ended December 31, 2020, High Yield Municipal, Short-Term Municipal and New York Municipal did not borrow under the credit agreement.
For the six months ended December 31, 2020, National Municipal’s amount of bank borrowings and the interest rate for the one-day loan under the credit agreement were $5,000 and 1.61%, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, the Fund did not have any outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement.
In the normal course of business, certain Funds invest in securities or other instruments and may enter into certain transactions, and such activities subject each Fund to various risks, including among others, fluctuations in the market (market risk) or failure of an issuer to meet all of its obligations. The value of securities or other instruments may also be affected by various factors, including, without limitation: (i) the general economy; (ii) the overall market as well as local, regional or global political and/or social instability; (iii) regulation, taxation or international tax treaties between various countries; or (iv) currency, interest rate and price fluctuations. Local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Funds and their investments. Each Fund’s prospectus provides details of the risks to which each Fund is subject.
A Fund structures and “sponsors” the TOB Trusts in which it holds TOB Residuals and has certain duties and responsibilities, which may give rise to certain additional risks including, but not limited to, compliance, securities law and operational risks.
Should short-term interest rates rise, the Funds’ investments in the TOB Trusts may adversely affect the Funds’ net investment income and dividends to shareholders. Also, fluctuations in the market value of municipal bonds deposited into the TOB Trust may adversely affect the Funds’ NAVs per share.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and various federal banking and housing agencies have adopted credit risk retention rules for securitizations (the “Risk Retention Rules”). The Risk Retention Rules would require the sponsor of a TOB Trust to retain at least 5% of the credit risk of the underlying assets supporting the TOB Trust’s municipal bonds. The Risk Retention Rules may adversely affect the Funds’ ability to engage in TOB Trust transactions or increase the costs of such transactions in certain circumstances.
TOB Trusts constitute an important component of the municipal bond market. Any modifications or changes to rules governing TOB Trusts may adversely impact the municipal market and the Funds, including through reduced demand for and liquidity of municipal bonds and increased financing costs for municipal issuers. The ultimate impact of any potential modifications on the TOB Trust market and the overall municipal market is not yet certain.
Market Risk: Each Fund may be exposed to prepayment risk, which is the risk that borrowers may exercise their option to prepay principal earlier than scheduled during periods of declining interest rates, which would force each Fund to reinvest in lower yielding securities. Each Fund may also be exposed to reinvestment risk, which is the risk that income from each Fund’s portfolio will decline if each Fund invests the proceeds from matured, traded or called fixed-income securities at market interest rates that are below each Fund portfolio’s current earnings rate.
Municipal securities are subject to the risk that litigation, legislation or other political events, local business or economic conditions, credit rating downgrades, or the bankruptcy of the issuer could have a significant effect on an issuer’s ability to make payments of principal and/or interest or otherwise affect the value of such securities. Municipal securities can be significantly affected by political or economic changes, including changes made in the law after issuance of the securities, as well as uncertainties in the municipal market related to, taxation, legislative changes or the rights of municipal security holders, including in connection with an issuer insolvency. Municipal securities backed by current or anticipated revenues from a specific project or specific assets can be negatively affected by the discontinuance of the tax benefits supporting the project or assets or the inability to collect revenues for the project or from the assets. Municipal securities may be less liquid than taxable bonds, and there may be less publicly available information on the financial condition of municipal security issuers than for issuers of other securities.
An outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus has developed into a global pandemic and has resulted in closing borders, quarantines, disruptions to supply chains and customer activity, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of this pandemic, and other global health crises that may arise in the future, could affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the market in general in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen at the present time. This pandemic may result in substantial market volatility and may adversely impact the prices and liquidity of a fund’s investments. The duration of this pandemic and its effects cannot be determined with certainty.
Counterparty Credit Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty credit risk, or the risk that an entity may fail to or be unable to perform on its commitments related to unsettled or open transactions, including making timely interest and/or principal payments or otherwise honoring its obligations. The Funds manage counterparty credit risk by entering into transactions only with counterparties that the Manager believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. Financial assets, which potentially expose the Funds to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks, consist principally of financial instruments and receivables due from counterparties. The extent of the Funds’ exposure to market, issuer and counterparty credit risks with respect to these financial assets is approximately their value recorded in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, less any collateral held by the Funds.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | | 89 |
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
A derivative contract may suffer a mark-to-market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. Losses can also occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
With exchange-traded futures, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Funds since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, a Fund does not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency). Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange-traded futures with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Funds.
Concentration Risk: A diversified portfolio, where this is appropriate and consistent with a fund’s objectives, minimizes the risk that a price change of a particular investment will have a material impact on the NAV of a fund. The investment concentrations within certain Fund’s portfolio are disclosed in its Schedule of Investments.
Certain Funds invests a significant amount of their assets in issuers located in a single state or limited number of states. When a Fund concentrates its investments in this manner, it assumes the risk that economic, regulatory, political or social conditions affecting that state or group of states could have a significant impact on the fund and could affect the income from, or the value or liquidity of, the fund’s portfolio. Investment percentages in specific states or U.S. territories are presented in the Schedules of Investments.
Certain Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in securities within a single or limited number of market sectors. When a Fund concentrates its investments in this manner, it assumes the risk that economic, regulatory, political and social conditions affecting such sectors may have a significant impact on the Fund and could affect the income from, or the value or liquidity of, the Fund’s portfolio. Investment percentages in specific sectors are presented in the Schedules of Investments.
Certain Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in high yield securities. High yield securities that are rated below investment-grade (commonly referred to as “junk bonds”) or are unrated may be deemed speculative, involve greater levels of risk than higher-rated securities of similar maturity and are more likely to default. High yield securities may be issued by less creditworthy issuers, and issuers of high yield securities may be unable to meet their interest or principal payment obligations. High yield securities are subject to extreme price fluctuations, may be less liquid than higher rated fixed-income securities, even under normal economic conditions, and frequently have redemption features.
Certain Funds invest a significant portion of their assets in fixed-income securities and/or use derivatives tied to the fixed-income markets. Changes in market interest rates or economic conditions may affect the value and/or liquidity of such investments. Interest rate risk is the risk that prices of bonds and other fixed-income securities will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The Funds may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the current period of historically low rates.
LIBOR Transition Risk: The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority announced a phase out of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) by the end of 2021, and it is expected that LIBOR will cease to be published after that time. The Funds may be exposed to financial instruments tied to LIBOR to determine payment obligations, financing terms, hedging strategies or investment value. The transition process away from LIBOR might lead to increased volatility and illiquidity in markets for, and reduce the effectiveness of new hedges placed against, instruments whose terms currently include LIBOR. The ultimate effect of the LIBOR transition process on the Funds is uncertain.

Statement Regarding Liquidity Risk Management Program
In compliance with Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Liquidity Rule”), BlackRock Municipal Bond Fund, Inc. (the “Corporation”) and BlackRock Multi-State Municipal Series Trust (the “Trust”) have adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program (the “Program”) for BlackRock High Yield Municipal Fund, BlackRock National Municipal Fund, BlackRock Short-Term Municipal Fund and BlackRock New York Municipal Opportunities Fund (the “Funds”), each a series of the Corporation or the respective Trust, which is reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation and the Board of Trustees of the Trust (collectively referred to herein as the “Board”), on behalf of the Funds, met on November 18-19, 2020 (the “Meeting”) to review the Program. The Board previously appointed BlackRock Advisors, LLC or BlackRock Fund Advisors (“BlackRock”), each an investment adviser to certain Funds, as the program administrator for each Fund’s Program, as applicable. BlackRock also previously delegated oversight of the Program to the 40 Act Liquidity Risk Management Committee (the “Committee”). At the Meeting, the Committee, on behalf of BlackRock, provided the Board with a report that addressed the operation of the Program and assessed its adequacy and effectiveness of implementation, including the operation of each Fund’s Highly Liquid Investment Minimum (“HLIM”) where applicable, and any material changes to the Program (the “Report”). The Report covered the period from October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2020 (the “Program Reporting Period”).
The Report described the Program’s liquidity classification methodology for categorizing a Fund’s investments (including derivative transactions) into one of four liquidity buckets. It also referenced the methodology used by BlackRock to establish a Fund’s HLIM and noted that the Committee reviews and ratifies the HLIM assigned to each Fund no less frequently than annually. The Report also discussed notable events affecting liquidity over the Program Reporting Period, including the impact of the coronavirus outbreak on the Funds and the overall market.
The Report noted that the Program complied with the key factors for consideration under the Liquidity Rule for assessing, managing and periodically reviewing a Fund’s liquidity risk, as follows:
| a) | The Fund’s investment strategy and liquidity of portfolio investments during both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions. During the Program Reporting Period, the Committee reviewed whether each Fund’s strategy is appropriate for an open-end fund structure with a focus on Funds with more significant and consistent holdings of less liquid and illiquid assets. The Committee also factored a Fund’s concentration in an issuer into the liquidity classification methodology by taking issuer position sizes into account. Where a Fund participated in borrowings for investment purposes (such as tender option bonds and reverse repurchase agreements), such borrowings were factored into the Program’s calculation of a Fund’s liquidity bucketing. Derivative exposure was also considered in such calculation. |
| b) | Short-term and long-term cash flow projections during both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed conditions. During the Program Reporting Period, the Committee reviewed historical net redemption activity and used this information as a component to establish each Fund’s reasonably anticipated trading size (“RATS”). Each Fund has adopted an in-kind redemption policy which may be utilized to meet larger redemption requests. The Committee may also take into consideration a Fund’s shareholder ownership concentration (which, depending on product type and distribution channel, may or may not be available), a Fund’s distribution channels, and the degree of certainty associated with a Fund’s short-term and long-term cash flow projections. |
| c) | Holdings of cash and cash equivalents, as well as borrowing arrangements. The Committee considered the terms of the credit facility committed to the Funds, the financial health of the institution providing the facility and the fact that the credit facility is shared among multiple Funds (including that a portion of the aggregate commitment amount is specifically designated for BlackRock Floating Rate Income Portfolio, a series of BlackRock Funds V). The Committee also considered other types of borrowing available to the Funds, such as the ability to use reverse repurchase agreements and interfund lending, as applicable. |
There were no material changes to the Program during the Program Reporting Period. The Report provided to the Board stated that the Committee concluded that based on the operation of the functions, as described in the Report, the Program is operating as intended and is effective in implementing the requirements of the Liquidity Rule.

Additional Information
Regulation Regarding Derivatives
On October 28, 2020, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted new regulations governing the use of derivatives by registered investment companies (“Rule 18f-4”). The Funds will be required to implement and comply with Rule 18f-4 by the third quarter of 2022. Once implemented, Rule 18f-4 will impose limits on the amount of derivatives a fund can enter into, eliminate the asset segregation framework currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, treat derivatives as senior securities so that a failure to comply with the limits would result in a statutory violation and require funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure amount to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager.
Dividend Policy
Each Fund’s dividend policy is to distribute all or a portion of its net investment income to its shareholders on a monthly/quarterly basis. In order to provide shareholders with a more stable level of dividend distributions, the distributions paid by a Fund for any particular month/quarter may be more or less than the amount of net investment income earned by a Fund during such month/quarter. The portion of distributions that exceeds a Fund current and accumulated earnings and profits, which are measured on a tax basis, will constitute a nontaxable return of capital. The Funds’ current accumulated but undistributed net investment income, if any, is disclosed as accumulated earnings (loss) in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, which comprises part of the financial information included in this report.
General Information
Quarterly performance, semi-annual and annual reports, current net asset value and other information regarding the Funds may be found on BlackRock’s website, which can be accessed at blackrock.com. Any reference to BlackRock’s website in this report is intended to allow investors public access to information regarding the Funds and does not, and is not intended to, incorporate BlackRock’s website in this report.
Householding
The Funds will mail only one copy of shareholder documents, including prospectuses, annual and semi-annual reports, Rule 30e-3 notices and proxy statements, to shareholders with multiple accounts at the same address. This practice is commonly called “householding” and is intended to reduce expenses and eliminate duplicate mailings of shareholder documents. Mailings of your shareholder documents may be householded indefinitely unless you instruct us otherwise. If you do not want the mailing of these documents to be combined with those for other members of your household, please call the Funds at (800) 441-7762.
Availability of Quarterly Schedule of Investments
The Funds file their complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year as an exhibit to their reports on Form N-PORT. The Funds’ Forms N-PORT are available on the SEC’s website at sec.gov. Additionally, each Fund makes its portfolio holdings for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year available at blackrock.com/fundreports.
Availability of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures
A description of the policies and procedures that the Funds use to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available upon request and without charge (1) by calling (800) 441-7762; (2) at blackrock.com; and (3) on the SEC’s website at sec.gov.
