(c)

MUA currently pays the Manager a monthly fee at an annual rate equal to 0.55% of the average daily value of the Fund’s net assets. For purposes of calculating these fees, “net assets”

mean the total assets of the Fund minus the sum of its accrued liabilities (which does not include liabilities represented by TOB Trusts and the liquidation preference of any outstanding

preferred shares). It is understood that the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred stock (other than accumulated dividends) and TOB Trusts is not considered a liability in

determining a Fund’s NAV.

(d)

MUA and the Manager have entered into a fee waiver agreement (the “Fee Waiver Agreement”), pursuant to which the Manager has contractually agreed to waive the investment advisory

fees with respect to any portion of MUA’s assets attributable to investments in any equity and fixed-income mutual funds and ETFs managed by the Manager or its affiliates that have a

contractual management fee, through June 30, 2026. In addition, pursuant to the Fee Waiver Agreement, the Manager has contractually agreed to waive its investment advisory fees by

the amount of investment advisory fees MUA pays to the Manager indirectly through its investment in money market funds

managed

by the Manager or its affiliates, through June 30,

2026. The Fee Waiver Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, only by MUA (upon the vote of a majority of the Directors who are not “interested

persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), of MUA (the “Independent Directors”)) or a majority of the outstanding voting

securities of MUA), upon 90 days’ written notice by MUA to the Manager.

Assumes the use of leverage in the form of tender option bond transactions and preferred shares representing 28% of managed assets, which is the total assets of MUA, including any

assets attributable to VRDP Shares and TOB Trusts, if any, minus the sum of its accrued liabilities (which does not include liabilities represented by TOB Trusts and the liquidation

preference of any outstanding preferred shares), at an annual cost of leverage to MUA of 4.24%, which is based on current market conditions. The actual amount of interest expense

borne by MUA will vary over time in accordance with the level of MUA’s use of tender option bond transactions and variations in market interest rates, as well as preferred shares

transactions and changes to agreement terms with counterparties. Interest expense is required to be treated as an expense of

MUA for accounting purposes.

MUA uses leverage to seek to enhance its returns to common shareholders. This leverage generally takes two forms: the

issu

ance of VRDP Shares and investment in TOBs. Both forms

of leverage benefit common shareholders if the cost of the leverage is lower than the returns earned by MUA when it invests the proceeds from the leverage. In order to help you better

General Description of Registrant [Abstract]

Investment Objectives and Practices [Text Block]

BlackRock MuniAssets Fund, Inc. (MUA)

The Fund’s investment objective is to provide high current income exempt from Federal income taxes by investing primarily in a portfolio of medium to lower grade or unrated

municipal obligations the interest on which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from Federal income taxes. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment

objective by investing at least 80% of its assets, except during temporary defensive periods, in a portfolio of obligations issued by or on behalf of states, territories and

possessions of the United States and their political subdivisions, agencies or instrumentalities paying interest which, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, is exempt from

Federal income taxes (“Municipal Bonds”). The Fund at all times, except during temporary defensive periods, will maintain at least 65% of its assets in Municipal Bonds which

are rated in any one of the medium and lower rating categories of a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or are unrated. These ratings are currently Baa

(Moody’s Investor Service Inc. (“Moody’s”)) or BBB (S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”)) or lower. These are fundamental policies of the Fund and,

therefore, may not be changed without the approval of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding common stock and the outstanding preferred stock, including the Fund’s

outstanding Variable Rate Demand Preferred Shares (the “VRDP Shares”), voting together as a single class, and of the holders of a majority of the outstanding preferred stock,

including the VRDP Shares, voting as a separate class. A majority of the outstanding means (1) 67% or more of the shares present at a meeting, if the holders of more than

50% of the outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy, or (2) more than 50% of the outstanding shares, whichever is less. The Fund may invest directly in

securities or synthetically through the use of derivatives. The Fund is not intended as, and you should not construe it to be, a complete investment program. There can be no

assurance that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved or that the Fund’s investment program will be successful.

The Fund has the authority to invest as much as 35% of its total assets in Municipal Bonds in the higher rating categories of nationally recognized statistical rating organizations

(ratings of A or higher by Moody’s, S&P or Fitch or comparable unrated securities). In addition, the Fund reserves the right to temporarily invest more than 20% of its total assets

in short-term municipal securities, or short-term taxable money market securities (including commercial paper, certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements) for

defensive purposes when, in the opinion of BlackRock Advisors, LLC (the “Manager”), prevailing market or financial conditions warrant. The Fund does not invest more than

25% of its total assets (taken at market value) in Municipal Bonds whose issuers are located in the same state. “Total assets” of the Fund means the Fund’s net assets plus the

amount of any borrowings for investment purposes.

Ordinarily, the Fund does not intend to realize significant interest income that is subject to Federal income taxes. However, the Fund may invest all or a portion of its assets in

certain tax-exempt securities classified as “private activity bonds” (“PABs”) (in general, bonds that benefit non-governmental entities) that may subject certain investors in the

Fund to a Federal alternative minimum tax.

The Fund may invest in securities not issued by or on behalf of a state or territory or by an agency or instrumentality thereof, if the Fund receives an opinion of counsel to the

issuer that such securities pay interest that is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes (“Non-Municipal Tax-Exempt Securities”), which could include trust

certificates, partnership interests or other instruments evidencing interest in one or more long-term Municipal Bonds. Non-Municipal Tax-Exempt Securities also may include

securities issued by other investment companies that invest in Municipal Bonds, to the extent such investments are permitted by the Fund’s investment restrictions and

applicable law.

The Fund ordinarily does not intend to realize significant investment income not exempt from federal income taxes. From time to time, the Fund may realize taxable capital

gains.

Investments in lower rated Municipal Bonds generally provide a higher yield and are less affected by interest rate fluctuations than higher rated tax-exempt securities of similar

maturity but are subject to greater overall market risk and are also subject to a greater degree of risk with respect to the ability of the issuer to meet its principal and interest

obligations.

The Fund seeks to reduce risk through investing in multiple issuers, credit analysis and monitoring of current developments regarding the obligor and trends in both the

economy and financial markets. The Manager will use various means to research the stability and/or potential for improvement of various municipal issuers in connection with

the proposed purchase of their securities by the Fund. Evaluation of each Municipal Bond may include the analysis of financial performance, debt structure, economic factors

and the administrative structure of the issuer. Additionally, the priority of liens and the overall structure of the particular issue may be factors that will determine suitability for

purchase. Further investigation may be performed and may include, among other things, discussions with project management, corporate officers and industry experts as well

as site inspections, area analysis, and project and financial projection analysis. All purchases and sales also may be subject to the review of market data, economic projections

and the performance of the financial markets. Certain economic indicators also may be monitored. Additionally, the Manager will vary the average maturity of the Fund’s

portfolio securities based upon its assessment of economic and market conditions.

Leverage:

The Fund currently leverages its assets through the use of VRDP Shares and residual interest municipal tender option bonds (“TOB Residuals”), which are

derivative interests in municipal bonds. The TOB Residuals in which the Fund will invest pay interest or income that, in the opinion of counsel to the issuer of such TOB

Residuals, is exempt from regular U.S. federal income tax. The Fund currently does not intend to borrow money or issue debt securities. Although it has no present intention

to do so, the Fund reserves the right to borrow money from banks or other financial institutions, or issue debt securities, in the future if it believes that market conditions would

be conducive to the successful implementation of a leveraging strategy through borrowing money or issuing debt securities. Any such leveraging will not be fully achieved until

the proceeds resulting from the use of leverage have been invested in accordance with the Fund’s investment objective and policies.

The Fund may enter into derivative securities transactions that have leverage embedded in them.

The Fund may also borrow money as a temporary measure for extraordinary or emergency purposes, including the payment of dividends and the settlement of securities

transactions which otherwise might require untimely dispositions of Fund securities.

Risk Factors [Table Text Block]

Risk Factors

This section contains a discussion of the general risks of investing in each Fund. The net asset value and market price of, and dividends paid on, the common shares will

fluctuate with and be affected by, among other things, the risks more fully described below. As with any fund, there can be no guarantee that the Fund will meet its investment

objective or that the Fund’s performance will be positive for any period of time. Each risk noted below is applicable to each Fund unless the specific Fund or Funds are noted

in a parenthetical. The order of the below risk factors does not indicate the significance of any particular risk factor.

Investment and Market Discount Risk:

An investment in the Fund’s common shares is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire amount that you

invest. As with any stock, the price of the Fund’s common shares will fluctuate with market conditions and other factors. If shares are sold, the price received may be more or

less than the original investment. Common shares are designed for long-term investors and the Fund should not be treated as a trading vehicle. Shares of closed-end

management investment companies frequently trade at a discount from their net asset value. This risk is separate and distinct from the risk that the Fund’s net asset value

could decrease as a result of its investment activities. At any point in time an investment in the Fund’s common shares may be worth less than the original amount invested,

even after taking into account distributions paid by the Fund. During periods in which the Fund may use leverage, the Fund’s investment, market discount and certain other

risks will be magnified.

Debt Securities Risk:

Debt securities, such as bonds, involve risks, such as credit risk, interest rate risk, extension risk, and prepayment risk, each of which are described in

further detail below:

•

Credit Risk

—

Credit risk refers to the possibility that the issuer of a debt security (i.e., the borrower) will not be able to make payments of interest and principal when

due. Changes in an issuer’s credit rating or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also affect the value of the Fund’s investment in that issuer. The

degree of credit risk depends on both the financial condition of the issuer and the terms of the obligation.

•

Interest Rate Risk

—

The market value of bonds and other fixed-income securities changes in response to interest rate changes and other factors. 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 Fund may be subject to a greater risk of rising interest rates due to the recent period of historically low interest rates. For example, if interest rates increase by 1%,

assuming a current portfolio duration of ten years, and all other factors being equal, the value of the Fund’s investments would be expected to decrease by 10%.

(Duration is a measure of the price sensitivity of a debt security or portfolio of debt securities to relative changes in interest rates.) The magnitude of these fluctuations

in the market price of bonds and other fixed-income securities is generally greater for those securities with longer maturities. Fluctuations in the market price of the

Fund’s investments will not affect interest income derived from instruments already owned by the Fund, but will be reflected in the Fund’s net asset value. The Fund may

lose money if short-term or long-term interest rates rise sharply in a manner not anticipated by Fund management.

To the extent the Fund invests in debt securities that may be prepaid at the option of the obligor (such as mortgage-backed securities), the sensitivity of such securities

to changes in interest rates may increase (to the detriment of the Fund) when interest rates rise. Moreover, because rates on certain floating rate debt securities typically

reset only periodically, changes in prevailing interest rates (and particularly sudden and significant changes) can be expected to cause some fluctuations in the net

asset value of the Fund to the extent that it invests in floating rate debt securities.

These basic principles of bond prices also apply to U.S. Government securities. A security backed by the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. Government is guaranteed only

as to its stated interest rate and face value at maturity, not its current market price. Just like other fixed-income securities, government-guaranteed securities will

fluctuate in value when interest rates change.

A general rise in interest rates has the potential to cause investors to move out of fixed-income securities on a large scale, which may increase redemptions from funds

that hold large amounts of fixed-income securities. Heavy redemptions could cause the Fund to sell assets at inopportune times or at a loss or depressed value and

could hurt the Fund’s performance.

•

Extension Risk

—

When interest rates rise, certain obligations will be paid off by the obligor more slowly than anticipated, causing the value of these obligations to fall.

•

Prepayment Risk

—

When interest rates fall, certain obligations will be paid off by the obligor more quickly than originally anticipated, and the Fund may have to invest

the proceeds in securities with lower yields.

Municipal Securities Risks:

Municipal securities risks include the ability of the issuer to repay the obligation, the relative lack of information about certain issuers of municipal

securities, and the possibility of future legislative changes which could affect the market for and value of municipal securities. Budgetary constraints of local, state, and federal

governments upon which the issuers may be relying for funding may also impact municipal securities. These risks include:

•

General Obligation Bonds Risks

—

Timely payments depend on the issuer’s credit quality, ability to raise tax revenues and ability to maintain an adequate tax base.

•

Revenue Bonds Risks

—

These payments depend on the money earned by the particular facility or class of facilities, or the amount of revenues derived from another

source.

•

Private Activity Bonds Risks

—

Municipalities and other public authorities issue private activity bonds to finance development of industrial facilities for use by a private

enterprise. The private enterprise pays the principal and interest on the bond, and the issuer does not pledge its full faith, credit and taxing power for repayment. The

Fund’s investments may consist of private activity bonds that may subject certain shareholders to an alternative minimum tax.

•

Moral Obligation Bonds Risks

—

Moral obligation bonds are generally issued by special purpose public authorities of a state or municipality. If the issuer is unable to

meet its obligations, repayment of these bonds becomes a moral commitment, but not a legal obligation, of the state or municipality.

•

Municipal Notes Risks

—

Municipal notes are shorter term municipal debt obligations. If there is a shortfall in the anticipated proceeds, the notes may not be fully repaid

and the Fund may lose money.

•

Municipal Lease Obligations Risks

—

In a municipal lease obligation, the issuer agrees to make payments when due on the lease obligation. Although the issuer does

not pledge its unlimited taxing power for payment of the lease obligation, the lease obligation is secured by the leased property.

•

Tax-Exempt Status Risk

—

The Fund and its investment manager will rely on the opinion of issuers’ bond counsel and, in the case of derivative securities, sponsors’

counsel, on the tax-exempt status of interest on municipal bonds and payments under derivative securities. Neither the Fund nor its investment manager will

independently review the bases for those tax opinions, which may ultimately be determined to be incorrect and subject the Fund and its shareholders to substantial tax

liabilities.

Taxability Risk:

The Fund intends to minimize the payment of taxable income to shareholders by investing in tax-exempt or municipal securities in reliance at the time of

purchase on an opinion of bond counsel to the issuer that the interest paid on those securities will be excludable from gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Such

securities, however, may be determined to pay, or have paid, taxable income subsequent to the Fund’s acquisition of the securities. In that event, the treatment of dividends

previously paid or to be paid by the Fund as “exempt interest dividends” could be adversely affected, subjecting the Fund’s shareholders to increased U.S. federal income tax

liabilities. Alternatively, the Fund might enter into an agreement with the IRS to pay an agreed upon amount in lieu of the IRS adjusting individual shareholders’ income tax

liabilities. If the Fund agrees to enter into such an agreement, the Fund’s yield could be adversely affected. Further, shareholders at the time the Fund enters into such an

agreement that were not shareholders when the dividends in question were paid would bear some cost for a benefit they did not receive. Federal tax legislation may limit the

types and volume of bonds the interest on which qualifies for a federal income tax-exemption. As a result, current legislation and legislation that may be enacted in the future

may affect the availability of municipal securities for investment by the Fund. In addition, future laws, regulations, rulings or court decisions may cause interest on municipal

securities to be subject, directly or indirectly, to U.S. federal income taxation or interest on state municipal securities to be subject to state or local income taxation, or the value

of state municipal securities to be subject to state or local intangible personal property tax, or may otherwise prevent the Fund from realizing the full current benefit of the

tax-exempt status of such securities. Any such change could also affect the market price of such securities, and thus the value of an investment in the Fund.

Insurance Risk:

Insurance guarantees that interest payments on a municipal security will be made on time and that the principal will be repaid when the security matures.

However, insurance does not protect against losses caused by declines in a municipal security’s value. The Fund cannot be certain that any insurance company will make the

payments it guarantees. If a municipal security’s insurer fails to fulfill its obligations or loses its credit rating, the value of the security could drop.

High Yield Bonds Risk:

Although junk bonds generally pay higher rates of interest than investment grade bonds, junk bonds are high risk investments that are considered

speculative and may cause income and principal losses for the Fund.

U.S. Government Obligations Risk (MYI):

Certain securities in which the Fund may invest, including securities issued by certain U.S. Government agencies and

U.S. Government sponsored enterprises, are not guaranteed by the U.S. Government or supported by the full faith and credit of the United States. In addition, circumstances

could arise that could prevent the timely payment of interest or principal on U.S. Government obligations, such as reaching the legislative “debt ceiling.” Such non-payment

could result in losses to the Fund and substantial negative consequences for the U.S. economy and the global financial system.

Variable Rate Demand Obligations Risk (MUI, MYD, MQY and MYI):

Variable rate demand obligations are floating rate securities that combine an interest in a long term

municipal bond with a right to demand payment before maturity from a bank or other financial institution. If the bank or financial institution is unable to pay, the Fund may lose

money

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Securities and Forward Commitments Risk (BTA):

When-issued and delayed delivery securities and forward commitments involve

the risk that the security the Fund buys will lose value prior to its delivery. There also is the risk that the security will not be issued or that the other party to the transaction will

not meet its obligation. If this occurs, the Fund may lose both the investment opportunity for the assets it set aside to pay for the security and any gain in the security’s price.

Defensive Investing Risk (BTA, MYD and MQY):

For defensive purposes, the Fund may, as part of its proprietary volatility control process, allocate assets into cash or

short-term fixed-income securities without limitation. In doing so, the Fund may succeed in avoiding losses but may otherwise fail to achieve its investment objective. Further,

the value of short-term fixed-income securities may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in credit ratings of the investments. If the Fund holds cash

uninvested it will be subject to the credit risk of the depositary institution holding the cash.

Repurchase Agreements and Purchase and Sale Contracts Risk (MUA and MYD):

If the other party to a repurchase agreement or purchase and sale contract defaults on

its obligation under the agreement, the Fund may suffer delays and incur costs or lose money in exercising its rights under the agreement. If the seller fails to repurchase the

security in either situation and the market value of the security declines, the Fund may lose money.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements Risk (BTA, MYD and MYI):

Reverse repurchase agreements involve the sale of securities held by the Fund with an agreement to

repurchase the securities at an agreed-upon price, date and interest payment. Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the other party may fail to return the

securities in a timely manner or at all. The Fund could lose money if it is unable to recover the securities and the value of the collateral held by the Fund, including the value of

the investments made with cash collateral, is less than the value of the securities. These events could also trigger adverse tax consequences for the Fund. In addition, reverse

repurchase agreements involve the risk that the interest income earned in the investment of the proceeds will be less than the interest expense.

Dollar Rolls Risk (MYI):

Dollar rolls involve the risk that the market value of the securities that the Fund is committed to buy may decline below the price of the securities the

Fund has sold. These transactions may involve leverage.

Sector Risk (MUI): Sector risk is the risk that the Fund’s concentration in the securities of companies in a specific market sector or industry will cause the Fund to be more

exposed to the price movements of companies in and developments affecting that sector than a more broadly diversified fund. To the extent that the Fund concentrates its

investments in a particular sector, there is the risk that the Fund will perform poorly during a downturn in that sector.

Leverage Risk: T

he Fund’s use of leverage may increase or decrease from time to time in its discretion and the Fund may, in the future, determine not to use leverage.

The use of leverage creates an opportunity for increased common share net investment income dividends, but also creates risks for the holders of common shares. The Fund

cannot assure you that the use of leverage will result in a higher yield on the common shares. Any leveraging strategy the Fund employs may not be successful.

Leverage involves risks and special considerations for common shareholders, including:

•

the likelihood of greater volatility of net asset value, market price and dividend rate of the common shares than a comparable portfolio without leverage;

•

the risk that fluctuations in interest rates or dividend rates on any leverage that the Fund must pay will reduce the return to the common shareholders;

•

the effect of leverage in a declining market, which is likely to cause a greater decline in the net asset value of the common shares than if the Fund were not leveraged,

which may result in a greater decline in the market price of the common shares;

•

leverage may increase operating costs, which may reduce total return.

Any decline in the net asset value of the Fund’s investments will be borne entirely by the holders of common shares. Therefore, if the market value of the Fund’s portfolio

declines, leverage will result in a greater decrease in net asset value to the holders of common shares than if the Fund were not leveraged. This greater net asset value

decrease will also tend to cause a greater decline in the market price for the common shares.

Derivatives Risk:

The Fund’s use of derivatives may increase its costs, reduce the Fund’s returns and/or increase volatility. Derivatives involve significant risks, including:

•

Leverage Risk

—

The Fund’s use of derivatives can magnify the Fund’s gains and losses. Relatively small market movements may result in large changes in the value

of a derivatives position and can result in losses that greatly exceed the amount originally invested.

•

Market Risk

—

Some derivatives are more sensitive to interest rate changes and market price fluctuations than other securities. The Fund could also suffer losses

related to its derivatives positions as a result of unanticipated market movements, which losses are potentially unlimited. Finally, the Manager may not be able to predict

correctly the direction of securities prices, interest rates and other economic factors, which could cause the Fund’s derivatives positions to lose value.

•

Counterparty Risk

—

Derivatives are also subject to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party in the transaction will be unable or unwilling to fulfill its

contractual obligation, and the related risks of having concentrated exposure to such a counterparty.

•

Illiquidity Risk

—

The possible lack of a liquid secondary market for derivatives and the resulting inability of the Fund to sell or otherwise close a derivatives position

could expose the Fund to losses and could make derivatives more difficult for the Fund to value accurately.

•

Operational Risk

—

The use of derivatives

includes

the risk of potential operational issues, including documentation issues, settlement issues, systems failures,

inadequate controls and human error.

•

Legal Risk — The risk of insufficient documentation, insufficient capacity or authority of counterparty, or legality or enforceability of a contract.

•

Volatility and Correlation Risk

—

Volatility is defined as the characteristic of a security, an index or a market to fluctuate significantly in price within a short time period.

A risk of the Fund’s use of derivatives is that the fluctuations in their values may not correlate with the overall securities markets.

•

Valuation Risk

—

Valuation for derivatives may not be readily available in the market. Valuation may be more difficult in times of market turmoil since many investors and

market makers may be reluctant to purchase complex instruments or quote prices for them.

•

Hedging Risk

—

Hedges are sometimes subject to imperfect matching between the derivative and the underlying security, and there can be no assurance that the

Fund’s hedging transactions will be effective. The use of hedging may result in certain adverse tax consequences.

•

Tax Risk

—

Certain aspects of the tax treatment of derivative instruments, including swap agreements and commodity-linked derivative instruments, are currently

unclear and may be affected by changes in legislation, regulations or other legally binding authority. Such treatment may be less favorable than that given to a direct

investment in an underlying asset and may adversely affect the timing, character and amount of income the Fund realizes from its investments.

Indexed and Inverse Securities Risk (BTA, MYD, MQY and MYI):

Indexed and inverse securities provide a potential return based on a particular index of value or interest

rates. The Fund’s return on these securities will be subject to risk with respect to the value of the particular index. These securities are subject to leverage risk and correlation

risk. Certain indexed and inverse securities have greater sensitivity to changes in interest rates or index levels than other securities, and the Fund’s investment in such

instruments may decline significantly in value if interest rates or index levels move in a way Fund management does not anticipate

Tender Option Bonds Risk:

The Fund’s participation in tender option bond transactions may reduce the Fund’s returns and/or increase volatility. Investments in tender option

bond transactions expose the Fund to counterparty risk and leverage risk. An investment in a tender option bond transaction typically will involve greater risk than an

investment in a municipal fixed rate security, including the risk of loss of principal. Distributions on TOB Residuals will bear an inverse relationship to short-term municipal

security interest rates. Distributions on TOB Residuals paid to the Fund will be reduced or, in the extreme, eliminated as short-term municipal interest rates rise and will

increase when short-term municipal interest rates fall. TOB Residuals generally will underperform the market for fixed rate municipal securities in a rising interest rate

environment. The Fund may invest special purpose trusts formed for the purpose of holding municipal bonds contributed by one or more funds (“TOB Trusts”) on either a

non-recourse or recourse basis. If the Fund invests in a TOB Trust on a recourse basis, it could suffer losses in excess of the value of its TOB Residuals.

Illiquid Investments Risk:

The Fund may invest without limitation in illiquid or less liquid investments or investments in which no secondary market is readily available or which

are otherwise illiquid, including private placement securities. The Fund may not be able to readily dispose of such investments at prices that approximate those at which the

Fund could sell such investments if they were more widely traded and, as a result of such illiquidity, the Fund may have to sell other investments or engage in borrowing

transactions if necessary to raise cash to meet its obligations. Limited liquidity can also affect the market price of investments, thereby adversely affecting the Fund’s net asset

value and ability to make dividend distributions. The financial markets in general, and certain segments of the mortgage-related securities markets in particular, have in recent

years experienced periods of extreme secondary market supply and demand imbalance, resulting in a loss of liquidity during which market prices were suddenly and

substantially below traditional measures of intrinsic value. During such periods, some investments could be sold only at arbitrary prices and with substantial losses. Periods of

such market dislocation may occur again at any time. Privately issued debt securities are often of below investment grade quality, frequently are unrated and present many of

the same risks as investing in below investment grade public debt securities.

Investment Companies and ETFs Risk (BTA):

Subject to the limitations set forth in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules thereunder, the Fund

may acquire shares in other investment companies and in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), some of which may be affiliated investment companies. The market value of the

shares of other investment companies and ETFs may differ from their net asset value. As an investor in investment companies and ETFs, the Fund would bear its ratable share

of that entity’s expenses, including its investment advisory and administration fees, while continuing to pay its own advisory and administration fees and other expenses (to the

extent not offset by the Manager through waivers). As a result, shareholders will be absorbing duplicate levels of fees with respect to investments in other investment

companies and ETFs (to the extent not offset by the Manager through waivers).

The securities of other investment companies and ETFs in which the Fund may invest may be leveraged. As a result, the Fund may be indirectly exposed to leverage through

an investment in such securities. An investment in securities of other investment companies and ETFs that use leverage may expose the Fund to higher volatility in the market

value of such securities and the possibility that the Fund’s long-term returns on such securities (and, indirectly, the long-term returns of shares of the Fund) will be diminished.

As with other investments, investments in other investment companies, including ETFs, are subject to market and selection risk. To the extent the Fund is held by an affiliated

fund, the ability of the Fund itself to hold other investment companies may be limited.

Preferred Securities Risk (BTA):

Preferred securities may pay fixed or adjustable rates of return. Preferred securities are subject to issuer-specific and market risks

applicable generally to equity securities. In addition, a company’s preferred securities generally pay dividends only after the company makes required payments to holders of

its bonds and other debt. For this reason, the value of preferred securities will usually react more strongly than bonds and other debt to actual or perceived changes in the

company’s financial condition or prospects. Preferred securities of smaller companies may be more vulnerable to adverse developments than preferred securities of larger

companies.

Risk of Investing in the United States:

Certain changes in the U.S. economy, such as when the U.S. economy weakens or when its financial markets decline, may have an

adverse effect on the securities to which the Fund has exposure.

Market Risk and Selection Risk:

Market risk is the risk that one or more markets in which the Fund invests will go down in value, including the possibility that the markets will

go down sharply and unpredictably. The value of a security or other asset may decline due to changes in general market conditions, economic trends or events that are not

specifically related to the issuer of the security or other asset, or factors that affect a particular issuer or issuers, exchange, country, group of countries, region, market, industry,

group of industries, sector or asset class. Local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues like

pandemics or epidemics, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Fund and its investments. Selection risk is the risk that the securities selected by

Fund management will underperform the markets, the relevant indices or the securities selected by other funds with similar investment objectives and investment strategies.

This means you may lose money.

An outbreak of an infectious coronavirus (COVID-19) that was first detected in December 2019 developed into a global pandemic that has resulted in numerous disruptions in

the market and has had significant economic impact leaving general concern and uncertainty. Although vaccines have been developed and approved for use by various

governments, the duration of the pandemic and its effects cannot be predicted with certainty. The impact of this coronavirus, and other epidemics and pandemics that may arise

in the future, could affect the economies of many nations, individual companies and the market in general ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen at the present time.

Shareholder Activism:

Shareholder activism involving closed-end funds has recently been increasing. Shareholder activism can take many forms, including engaging in

public campaigns to demand that the Fund consider significant transactions such as a tender offer, merger or liquidation or to attempt to influence the Fund’s corporate

governance and/or management, commencing proxy contests to attempt to elect the activists’ representatives or others to the Fund’s Board of Directors/Trustees (the

“Board”), or to seek other actions such as a termination of the Fund’s investment advisory contract with its current investment manager or commencing litigation. If the Fund

becomes the subject of shareholder activism, then management and the Board may be required to divert significant resources and attention to respond to the activist and the

Fund may incur substantial costs defending against such activism if management and the Board determine that the activist’s demands are not in the best interest of the Fund.

Further, the Fund’s share price could be subject to significant fluctuation or otherwise be adversely affected by the events, risks and uncertainties of any shareholder activism.

As of July 31, 2024, MUA

’

s market price, NAV per Common Share, and premium/(discount) to NAV per Common Share were $11.52, $11.89, and (3.11)%, respectively.

Common shares of MUA have historically traded at both a premium and discount to NAV.

Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount to their NAV. Because of this possibility and the recognition that any such discount may not be in the interest of

shareholders, the Board might consider from time to time engaging in open-market repurchases, managed distribution plans, or other programs intended to reduce the

discount. We cannot guarantee or assure, however, that the Board will decide to engage in any of these actions. Nor is there any guarantee or assurance that such actions, if

undertaken, would result in the shares trading at a price equal or close to the NAV.

CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS

Each Fund, except for BTA, is authorized to issue 200 million shares, all of which were initially classified as Common Shares. BTA is authorized to issue an unlimited number

of shares, all of which were initially classified as Common Shares. The par value for each Fund

’

s Common Shares is $0.10, except for BTA, which is $0.001. The par value for

each Fund

’

s Preferred Shares outstanding is $0.10, except for BTA, which is $0.001. Each Board is authorized, however, to reclassify any unissued Common Shares to

Preferred Shares without the approval of Common Shareholders.

Common Shares

For the periods shown, shares issued and outstanding increased by the following amounts as a result of dividend reinvestment:

	Year Ended
Fund Name	07/31/24	07/31/23
BTA	—	2,033
MUA	—	13,454

For the year ended July 31, 2024, shares issued and outstanding remained constant for BTA.

The Funds participate in an open market share repurchase program (the “Repurchase Program”). From December 1, 2022 through November 30, 2023, each Fund may

repurchase up to 5% of its outstanding common shares under the Repurchase Program, based on common shares outstanding as of the close of business on November 30,

2022, subject to certain conditions. From December 1, 2023 through November 30, 2024, each Fund may repurchase up to 5% of its outstanding common shares under the

Repurchase Program, based on common shares outstanding as of the close of business on November 30, 2023, subject to certain conditions. The Repurchase Program has

an accretive effect as shares are purchased at a discount to the Fund’s NAV. There is no assurance that the Funds will purchase shares in any particular amounts.

For the year

ended July 31, 2024 and year ended July 31, 2023, BTA did not repurchase any shares.

For the year ended July 31, 2023, MUA did not repurchase any shares.

MUA has filed a prospectus with the SEC allowing it to issue an additional 5,500,000 Common Shares through a Shelf Offering. Under the Shelf Offering, MUA, subject to

market conditions, may raise additional equity capital from time to time in varying amounts and utilizing various offering methods at a net price at or above the Fund’s NAV per

Common Share (calculated within 48 hours of pricing). As of year end, 4,767,963 Common Shares remain available for issuance under the Shelf Offering. For the year ended

July 31, 2024, Common Shares issued and outstanding under the Shelf Offering remained constant. See Additional Information - Shelf Offering Program for additional

information.

Initial costs incurred by MUA in connection with its Shelf Offering are recorded as “Deferred offering costs” in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As shares are sold, a

portion of the costs attributable to the shares sold will be charged against paid-in-capital. Any remaining deferred charges at the end of the Shelf Offering period will be charged

to expense.

Preferred Shares

A Fund

’

s Preferred Shares rank prior to its Common Shares as to the payment of dividends by the Fund and distribution of assets upon dissolution or liquidation of the Fund.

The 1940 Act prohibits the declaration of any dividend on Common Shares or the repurchase of Common Shares if the Fund fails to maintain asset coverage of at least 200%

of the liquidation preference of the Fund

’

s outstanding Preferred Shares. In addition, pursuant to the Preferred Shares

’

governing instruments, a Fund is restricted from

declaring and paying dividends on classes of shares ranking junior to or on parity with its Preferred Shares or repurchasing such shares if the Fund fails to declare and pay

dividends on the Preferred Shares, redeem any Preferred Shares required to be redeemed under the Preferred Shares’ governing instruments or comply with the basic

maintenance amount requirement of the ratings agencies rating the Preferred Shares.

Holders of Preferred Shares have voting rights equal to the voting rights of holders of Common Shares (one vote per share) and vote together with holders of Common Shares

(one vote per share) as a single class on certain matters. Holders of Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, are also entitled to (i) elect two members of the Board,

(ii) elect the full Board if dividends on the Preferred Shares are not paid for a period of two years and (iii) a separate class vote to amend the Preferred Share governing

documents. In addition, the 1940 Act requires the approval of the holders of a majority of any outstanding Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class, to (a) adopt any plan

of reorganization that would adversely affect the Preferred Shares, (b) change a Fund

’

s sub-classification as a closed-end investment company or change its fundamental

investment restrictions or (c) change its business so as to cease to be an i

nvest

ment company.

VRDP Shares

The Funds (for purposes of this section, each a “VRDP Fund”) have issued Series W-7 VRDP Shares and Series W-7A VRDP Shares, as applicable, each $100,000 liquidation

preference per share, in one or more privately negotiated offerings to qualified institutional buyers as defined pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as

amended (the “Securities Act”). The VRDP Shares include a liquidity feature and may be subject to a special rate period. As of period end, the VRDP Shares outstanding were

as follows:

Fund Name	Issue Date	Shares Issued	Aggregate Principal	Maturity Date
BTA	10/29/15	760	$ 76,000,000	11/01/45
MUA	12/15/21	1,750	175,000,000	12/15/51
MUI	04/07/22	2,871	287,100,000	04/07/52
	04/11/22	2,746	274,600,000	04/07/52
MYD	06/30/11	2,514	251,400,000	07/01/41
MQY (a)	04/19/21	2,251	225,100,000	10/01/41
	06/05/24	2,252	225,200,000	06/01/54
MYI	05/19/11	3,564	356,400,000	06/01/41

(a)	On June 5, 2024, MQY issued 2,252 Series W-7A VRDP Shares and used the proceeds of the issuance to redeem 2,252 Series W-7 VRDP Shares. Accordingly, MQY currently has outstanding 2,252 Series W-7A VRDP Shares and 2,251 Series W-7 VRDP Shares.

Redemption Terms:

A VRDP Fund is required to redeem its VRDP Shares on the maturity date, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. Six months prior to the maturity date,

a VRDP Fund is required to begin to segregate liquid assets with the Fund

’

s custodian to fund the redemption. In addition, a VRDP Fund is required to redeem certain of its

outstanding VRDP Shares if it fails to comply with certain asset coverage, basic maintenance amount or leverage requirements.

Subject to certain conditions, the VRDP Shares may also be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time at the option of a VRDP Fund. The redemption price per VRDP Share

is equal to the liquidation preference per share plus any outstanding unpaid dividends.

Liquidity Feature:

VRDP Shares are subject to a fee agreement between the VRDP Fund and the liquidity provider that requires a per annum liquidity fee and, in some cases,

an upfront or initial commitment fee, payable to the liquidity provider. These fees, if applicable, are shown as liquidity fees in the Statements of Operations. As of period end,

the fee agreement is set to expire, unless renewed or terminated in advance, as follows:

	BTA	MUA	MUI	MYD	MQY	MYI
Expiration date	11/30/24	04/29/25	11/30/24	11/30/24	06/04/25	07/06/25

The VRDP Shares are also subject to a purchase agreement in connection with the liquidity feature. In the event a purchase agreement is not renewed or is terminated in

advance, and the VRDP Shares do not become subject to a purchase agreement with an alternate liquidity provider, the VRDP Shares will be subject to mandatory purchase

by the liquidity provider prior to the termination of the purchase agreement. In the event of such mandatory purchase, a VRDP Fund is required to redeem the VRDP Shares

six months after the purchase date. Immediately after such mandatory purchase, the VRDP Fund is required to begin to segregate liquid assets with its custodian to fund the

redemption. There is no assurance that a VRDP Fund will replace such redeemed VRDP Shares with any other preferred shares or other form of leverage.

Remarketing:

A VRDP Fund may incur remarketing fees on the aggregate principal amount of all its VRDP Shares, which, if any, are included in remarketing fees on Preferred

Shares in the Statements of Operations.

During any special rate period (as described below), a VRDP Fund may incur nominal or no remarketing fees.

Ratings:

As of period end, the VRDP Shares were assigned the following ratings:

Fund Name	Moody ’ s Investors Service, Inc. Long-Term Ratings	Moody ’ s Investors Service, Inc. Short-Term Ratings	Fitch Ratings, Inc. Long-Term Ratings	S&P Global Short-Term Ratings
BTA	Aa2	N/A	A	N/A
MUA	Aa2	P-1	N/A	A-1
MUI	Aa1	N/A	AA	N/A
MYD	Aa1	N/A	AA	N/A
MQY	Aa1	P-1	AA	A-1+
MYI	Aa1	N/A	AA	N/A

Any short-term ratings on VRDP Shares are directly related to the short-term ratings of the liquidity provider for such VRDP Shares. Changes in the credit quality of the liquidity

provider could cause a change in the short-term credit ratings of the VRDP Shares as rated by Moody’s and S&P Global Ratings. The liquidity provider may be terminated prior

to the scheduled termination date if the liquidity provider fails to maintain short-term debt ratings in one of the two highest rating categories.

Special Rate Period:

A VRDP Fund has commenced a “special rate period” with respect to its VRDP Shares, during which the VRDP Shares will not be subject to any

remarketing and the dividend rate will be based on a predetermined methodology. During a special rate period, short-term ratings on VRDP Shares are withdrawn. As of period

end, the following VRDP Funds have commenced/are set to commence a special rate period:

Fund Name	Commencement Date	Expiration Date as of Period Ended 07/31/24
BTA	10/29/15	11/15/24
MUI	04/07/22	11/15/24
MYD	04/17/14	11/15/24
MYI	06/22/22	06/18/25

The following VRDP Funds were in a special rate period that terminated during the reporting period:

Fund Name	Commencement Date	Termination Date
MUA	12/15/21	04/10/24
MQY	10/22/15	06/05/24

Prior to the expiration date, the VRDP Fund and the VRDP Shares holder may mutually agree to extend the special rate period. If a special rate period is not extended, the

VRDP Shares will revert to remarketable securities upon the termination of the special rate period and will be remarketed and available for purchase by qualified institutional

investors.

During the special rate period: (i) the liquidity and fee agreements remain in effect, (ii) VRDP Shares remain subject to mandatory redemption by the VRDP Fund on the

maturity date, (iii) VRDP Shares will not be remarketed or subject to optional or mandatory tender events, (iv) the VRDP Fund is required to comply with the same asset

coverage, basic maintenance amount and leverage requirements for the VRDP Shares as is required when the VRDP Shares are not in a special rate period, (v) the VRDP

Fund will pay dividends monthly based on the sum of an agreed upon reference rate and a percentage per annum based on the long-term ratings assigned to the VRDP Shares

and (vi) the VRDP Fund will pay nominal or no fees to the liquidity provider and remarketing agent.

Dividends:

Except during the Special Rate Period as described above, dividends on the VRDP Shares are payable monthly at a variable rate set weekly by the remarketing

agent. Such dividend rates are generally based upon a spread over a base rate and cannot exceed a maximum rate. A change in the short-term credit rating of the liquidity

provider or the VRDP Shares may adversely affect the dividend rate paid on such shares, although the dividend rate paid on the VRDP Shares is not directly based upon either

short-term rating. In the event of a failed remarketing, the dividend rate of the VRDP Shares will be reset to a maximum rate. The maximum rate is determined based on, among

other things, the long-term preferred share rating assigned to the VRDP Shares and the length of time that the VRDP Shares fail to be remarketed.

For the year ended July 31, 2024, the annualized dividend rate for the VRDP Shares were as follows:

	BTA	MUA	MUI	MYD	MQY	MYI
Dividend rates	4.37 %	4.24 %	4.37 %	4.37 %	4.18 %	4.39 %

For the year ended July 31, 2024, VRDP Shares issued and outstanding of each VRDP Fund remained constant.

During the year ended July 31, 2024, MQY issued 2,252 Series W-7A VRDP Shares and used the proceeds of the issuance to redeem 2,252 Series W-7 VRDP Shares.

Offering Costs:

The Funds incurred costs in connection with the issuance of VRDP Shares, which were recorded as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the related

debt liability and will be amortized over the life of the VRDP Shares with the exception of any upfront fees paid by a VRDP Fund to the liquidity provider which, if any, were

amortized over the life of the liquidity agreement.

Amortization of these costs is included in interest expense, fees and amortization of offering costs in the Statements of

Operations.

Financial Reporting:

The VRDP Shares are considered debt of the issuer; therefore, the liquidation preference, which approximates fair value of the VRDP Shares, is

recorded as a liability in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities net of deferred offering costs. Unpaid dividends are included in interest expense and fees payable in the

Statements of Assets and Liabilities, and the dividends accrued and paid on the VRDP Shares are included as a component of interest expense, fees and amortization of

offering costs in the Statements of Operations. The VRDP Shares are treated as equity for tax purposes. Dividends paid to holders of the VRDP Shares are generally classified

as tax-exempt income for tax-reporting purposes. Dividends and amortization of deferred offering costs on VRDP Shares are included in interest expense, fees and

amortization of offering costs in the Statements of Operations:

Fund Name	Dividends	Deferred Offering Costs Amortization
BTA	$ 3,322,363	$ 16,073

General Description of Registrant [Abstract]

Risk [Text Block]

Investment and Market Discount Risk:

An investment in the Fund’s common shares is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire amount that you

invest. As with any stock, the price of the Fund’s common shares will fluctuate with market conditions and other factors. If shares are sold, the price received may be more or

less than the original investment. Common shares are designed for long-term investors and the Fund should not be treated as a trading vehicle. Shares of closed-end

management investment companies frequently trade at a discount from their net asset value. This risk is separate and distinct from the risk that the Fund’s net asset value

could decrease as a result of its investment activities. At any point in time an investment in the Fund’s common shares may be worth less than the original amount invested,

even after taking into account distributions paid by the Fund. During periods in which the Fund may use leverage, the Fund’s investment, market discount and certain other

risks will be magnified.
