    it's looks like they located in US(or at least your money going to US address) , so -it should be just INT by end of the year.
    looks very attractive imo. is there any way to check bank(such as this one) security,rating, stability, etc?

    Thank you!

    muni ETF's are good, the bottom is gone, but imo-it's not too late to get in. i use to track them and create kinda like index of those ETF's. the bottom was shortly after fed start lower rates. as long as fed in this mode-they will go up. good tool imo to play fed's rates game.
    i would stay way from florida,ca and ohio.
