Insights

Closed-end fund ownership analyst

Karpus reports a 6.86% passive stake in BlackRock New York Municipal Income Trust.

Karpus Management discloses beneficial ownership of 1,653,365 common shares, representing 6.86% of the fund as of 12/31/2025. It holds sole voting and dispositive power, indicating centralized control of this block within the adviser.

The filing characterizes the stake as being held in the ordinary course of business and explicitly disclaims any intent to change or influence control. That language signals a passive position under Schedule 13G, rather than an activist campaign.

Karpus notes it is controlled by City of London Investment Group plc but describes information barriers so that voting and investment decisions on these BNY shares are made independently by Karpus. Future ownership updates would typically appear in subsequent beneficial ownership reports if the percentage changes materially.

Does Karpus Management have voting control over its BNY shares?

Is Karpus Management’s BNY position considered passive or activist?

Karpus certifies that its BNY shares were acquired and are held in the ordinary course of business, not to change or influence control of the trust. This language and the Schedule 13G format indicate a passive investment stance rather than an activist position.

Who ultimately controls Karpus Management, the BNY reporting person?

Karpus Management is controlled by City of London Investment Group plc, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange. The filing explains there are informational barriers, so Karpus exercises voting and investment power over BNY shares independently from its parent company.

How are the BNY shares reported by Karpus actually held?

The filing explains that the BNY shares are owned directly by client accounts managed by Karpus Management. Karpus acts as investment adviser to these accounts and aggregates their positions for reporting, reflecting its beneficial ownership through discretionary management authority.

Why did Karpus Management file a Schedule 13G for BNY?

A Schedule 13G is required when an investor exceeds 5% beneficial ownership and qualifies for passive reporting. Karpus crossed that threshold in BNY, reporting 6.86% ownership as of December 31, 2025, and certified that the holding is not for influencing control.
