The ABCs of Arbitrage 2025 Edition

Tax-exempt bonds finance the majority of the nation's infrastructure. The interest payments on tax-exempt bonds are exempt from federal income tax if certain federal tax requirements are met. Interest on bonds will not be tax-exempt if the bonds are arbitrage bonds. This book explains the complex federal tax rules that are applicable to tax-exempt bonds and the limits on when and how much arbitrage can be earned and retained by an issuer.
