Easterly ROCMuni Fund's Steep Decline Spurs Potential Investor Lawsuits

From the desk of Jim Eccleston at Eccleston Law

The Easterly ROCMuni High Income Municipal Bond Fund (RMHIX) has suffered a dramatic collapse, losing nearly half its value in June and now trading at a net asset value (NAV) of $2.95 per share. According to InvestmentNews, year-to-date, the fund is down 56.3 percent, with most losses occurring over a few days in mid-June.

Attorneys are now investigating potential claims against broker-dealers that recommended the fund, including Osaic Wealth and Stifel Nicolaus & Co. Those with questions or information should contact our attorneys.

Osaic did not respond to requests for comment. Stifel, however, issued a statement acknowledging investor concerns about the fund’s performance and management, noting that it has formally requested—but not received—details from Easterly on how its management led to such substantial losses.
