The 10-year investment result for American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund includes the fund’s results as a money market fund through the date of its conversion (August 7, 2009) to a short-term tax-exempt bond fund, and therefore is not representative of the fund’s results had it operated as a short-term tax-exempt bond fund for the full term of that period. Investment results assume all distributions are reinvested and reflect applicable fees and expenses. When applicable, investment results reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, without which results would have been lower. The investment adviser is currently reimbursing a portion of other expenses for American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York. Investment results and the net expense ratio reflect the reimbursement, without which the results would have been lower and the expense ratio would have been higher. This reimbursement will be in effect through at least October 1, 2020, unless modified or terminated by the fund’s board. The adviser may elect at its discretion to extend, modify or terminate the reimbursement at that time. Visit capitalgroup.com for more information.

Fellow investors:
We are pleased to present this report for American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund, The Tax-Exempt Fund of California and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York. It covers the 12-month period ended July 31, 2019, the conclusion of the funds’ fiscal year.
Declining interest rates and investor appetite for tax-exempt income in the wake of 2017’s tax reforms supported the municipal bond market over the period. Municipal bond prices climbed, and all six funds generated positive returns. Total returns ranged from 7.28% for American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund to 3.09% for American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund. (See pages 4 through 16 for fund specific results and information.)
Economic and market overview
Concerns surrounding global economic growth and heightened trade tension produced stretches of volatility during the period. Yields dropped across the U.S. Treasury curve, with the benchmark 10-year note declining 94 basis points to 2.02% as of July 31. However, this downward movement in rates began after the 10-year note’s yield reached an eight-year high, 3.24%, in November. Meanwhile, the yield on AAA-rated municipal bonds, as measured by Bloomberg Valuation Service (BVAL), declined 95 basis points to 1.52% during the fiscal year.
The U.S. economy grew 2.0% in the second quarter — down from 3.1% in the first quarter — as consumer and government spending offset declines in private investment and exports. Historically low unemployment (3.7% in July) continued to support labor turnover and moderately faster wage growth. Inflation tempered toward the end of the period amid lower energy prices and only modest price upticks in non-food goods.
The Federal Reserve (Fed) raised the target range for the federal funds rate in September and December of 2018, but as economic indicators pointed to slower growth and weaker investment, the Fed pivoted, choosing to cut rates in July. At month-end, the target range for the federal funds rate stood at 2.00% to 2.25%. Fed officials have signaled that additional cuts are possible should economic conditions warrant further action.
Tax reforms passed in late 2017 have been a windfall for municipal debt. The tax changes reduced the types of bonds that can be issued on a tax-exempt basis, while also making municipal debt more attractive to residents of certain states that were impacted by federal limits on state and local tax deductions. These factors continue to create distortions in supply-and-demand dynamics. Municipal bond funds posted record net inflows during the first half of 2019, with February setting a record for monthly inflows. Through July 24, inflows had reached $55 billion year-to-date. However, issuance has not been able to keep up with demand as state and local governments have been unable to refinance certain debt due to changes laid out in the 2017 tax overhaul. Year-to-date net issuance (gross bond issuance less maturities and redemptions) was down about $19 billion through July 31, according to Barclays.
Strong demand combined with lower supply led to tight spreads, which helped drive the positive market return across the municipal bond sector. Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Municipal Bond Index (a market value-weighted index composed of municipal bonds rated below BBB/Baa) returned 8.08%. It surpassed the 7.31% return of the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index, a measure of the
American Funds Tax-Exempt Funds | 1 |
long-term investment-grade (bonds rated BBB/Baa and above) tax-exempt market.
Inside the funds
Municipal bonds, in general, continue to provide stability and diversification in portfolios as price fluctuations have been less pronounced than equities over longer periods. Although several funds lagged their benchmarks, managers’ preference for high-quality credit as well as more conservative duration positioning helped the funds surpass the returns of their peer group measures.
The fund managers’ long-term approach favors sectors such as housing, transportation and education, which has resulted in greater exposure to revenue bonds. Managers have also found attractive opportunities in health care bonds despite uncertainty in the industry. In this sector, not-for-profit hospital credit is a focus.
Looking ahead
We continue to maintain a relatively cautious approach to credit and duration risk in fund portfolios. Financial market optimism is mixed as concerns increase over geopolitical and trade tensions.
Longer term, the market’s prospects look healthy. Credit quality continues to be generally sound, so even if economic growth slows further, the fundamentals of many municipal bonds may not be materially impacted. For those seeking diversity from equities and preservation in their portfolios, tax-exempt bonds remain a solid option, especially for investors in high-tax states.
Duration and yield curve management are important factors moving forward, especially as the Fed may continue to loosen monetary policy. With the Fed’s pivot, we believe that the current low-yield environment may continue to provide opportunities to uncover potentially compelling investments. We are mindful of credit quality when considering any new investment. We are particularly focused on revenue bond issuers as they tend not to be directly affected by the long-term liability issues facing state and local governments and may provide a measure of stability for long-term investors.
Thank you for your support. We endeavor to be responsible custodians of your capital.
Sincerely,
Aaron Applebaum

Funds’ 30-day yields
Below is a summary of each fund’s 30-day yield and 12-month distribution rate for Class A shares as of August 31, 2019. Both measures reflect the 2.50%/3.75% maximum sales charge. Each fund’s 30-day yield is calculated in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) formula. The SEC yield reflects the rate at which each fund is earning income on its current portfolio of securities while the distribution rate reflects the funds’ past dividends paid to shareholders. Accordingly, the funds’ SEC yields and distribution rates may differ. The equivalent taxable yield assumes a 40.8% tax rate.1

For the year 2019, there will be an Unearned Income Medicare Contribution Tax of 3.8% that applies to net investment income for taxpayers whose modified adjusted gross income exceeds $200,000 (for single filers) and $250,000 (for married filing jointly). Thus taxpayers in the highest tax bracket will face a combined 40.8% marginal tax rate on their investment income. The federal rates do not include an adjustment for the loss of personal exemptions and the phaseout of itemized deductions that are applicable to certain taxable income levels. |

The return of principal for bond funds and for funds with significant underlying bond holdings is not guaranteed. Fund shares are subject to the same interest rate, inflation and credit risks associated with the underlying bond holdings. Income may be subject to state or local income taxes and/or federal alternative minimum taxes. Also, certain other income (such as distributions from gains on the sale of certain bonds purchased at less than par value, for The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America), as well as capital gain distributions, may be taxable. High-yield/lower rated bonds are subject to greater fluctuations in value and risk of loss of income and principal than investment-grade/higher rated bonds. The Tax-Exempt Fund of California and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York are more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of each state’s tax-exempt securities than a more widely diversified municipal bond fund. Refer to the funds’ prospectus and the Risk Factors section of this report for more information on these and other risks associated with investing in the funds.

American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund
The fund registered a total return of 3.09% for the fiscal year. This trailed the 3.73% return posted by the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Short 1–5 Years Index, a market value-weighted index that includes investment-grade (rated BBB/Baa and above) tax-exempt bonds with maturities of one to five years. The fund outpaced the 2.77% return of the Lipper Short Municipal Debt Funds Average, a peer group measure.
For the fiscal year, the fund paid monthly dividends totaling approximately 16 cents a share. This amounts to a federally tax-exempt income return of 1.57% for investors who reinvested dividends. This is equivalent to a taxable income return of 2.65% for investors in the 40.8%1 maximum federal tax bracket. A portion of the fund’s return also may be exempt from some state and local taxes.
In a volatile environment, the fund’s managers continued to seek relative stability. They focused on issues of slightly shorter duration and higher quality but sought to participate in what they believed were attractive investment opportunities when market volatility escalated. Returns for municipals were positive overall, with housing bonds among the largest contributors to the fund’s returns. Among corporates, however, certain issues detracted.
At the close of the period more than 78% of the fund’s assets were invested in revenue bonds.
The fund uses derivatives to manage its exposure to interest rates and the yield curve. Instruments such as U.S. Treasury futures might be used when cash bonds are unavailable or not attractively priced.

Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America
The fund generated a total return of 4.71% for the 12 months ended July 31. It lagged the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Short-Intermediate 1–10 Years Index, a market value-weighted index that includes investment-grade (rated BBB/Baa and above) tax-exempt bonds with maturities of one to 10 years, which rose 5.50%. However, the fund bested the 4.58% return of the Lipper Short-Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Average, a peer group measure.
The fund paid monthly dividends totaling 31 cents a share for the fiscal year. Those individuals who reinvested dividends received a federally tax-exempt income return of 2.02%. This is equivalent to a taxable income return of 3.41% for investors in the 40.8%1 maximum federal tax bracket.
The fund’s managers positioned the portfolio conservatively, as they sought to maintain a relatively short duration. This approach led the fund to trail the broader market but outpace its peer group. At fiscal year-end, 62.0% of the portfolio was invested in bonds rated AAA/Aaa or AA/Aa.

The fund produced a 6.71% total return for the fiscal year, which lagged the 7.31% return of the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index, a market value-weighted index designed to represent the long-term investment-grade (bonds rated BBB/Baa and above) tax-exempt bond market. However, the fund’s return slightly outpaced the 6.66% total return of the Lipper General & Insured Municipal Debt Funds Average, a peer group measure.
For the fiscal year, the fund paid monthly dividends totaling about 36 cents a share, amounting to a federally tax-exempt income return of 2.88% for investors who reinvested dividends. This is equivalent to a taxable income return of 4.86% for investors in the 40.8%1 maximum federal tax bracket.
The fund was positioned relatively conservatively this fiscal year, as the fund’s managers were focused on upgrading the portfolio in an uncertain environment. At the close of the period more than 84% of the portfolio consisted of revenue bonds. Among the largest concentrations were holdings backing hospital facilities and water and sewer authorities. The fund does not invest in bonds subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).
The fund uses derivatives to manage its exposure to interest rates and the yield curve. Instruments such as U.S. Treasury futures might be used when cash bonds are unavailable or not attractively priced.
The market index is unmanaged and, therefore, has no expenses. Investors cannot invest directly in an index. Bloomberg Barclays source: Bloomberg Index Services Ltd.

American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund
The fund produced a total return of 7.28% for the fiscal year, lagging the Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Municipal Bond Index (a market value-weighted index composed of municipal bonds rated below BBB/Baa), which returned 8.08%. By comparison, the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index, a measure of the investment-grade municipal market, recorded a return of 7.31%. The fund outpaced the Lipper High Yield Municipal Debt Funds Average (a peer group measure), which rose 6.77%.
For the fiscal year, the fund paid monthly dividends totaling 57 cents a share, amounting to a federally tax-exempt income return of 3.68% for investors who reinvested dividends. This is equivalent to a taxable income return of 6.22% for investors in the 40.8%1 maximum federal tax bracket. A portion of the fund’s return also may be exempt from some state and local taxes.

The Tax-Exempt Fund of California
The fund generated a total return of 6.73% for the 12 months ended July 31. This result bested the 6.54% total return of the Lipper California Municipal Debt Funds Average, a peer group measure. However, the fund trailed the 7.06% return of the Bloomberg Barclays California Municipal Index, a market value-weighted index that includes only investment-grade (rated BBB/Baa and above) tax-exempt bonds of issuers within the state of California.
For the fiscal year, the fund paid monthly dividends totaling 50 cents a share. Those investors who reinvested dividends received an income return of 2.92%. This is equivalent to a taxable income return of 6.36% for investors in the 54.10%1 effective combined federal and California tax bracket.
The California economy remains strong, growing at a 3.5% annual rate in 2018 (latest available data), outpacing the national growth rate in 2018 of 2.9%. With tax reform reducing the state and local tax deduction for some California taxpayers, municipal bonds may have increased appeal for residents in higher income tax brackets.
The fund uses derivatives to manage its exposure to interest rates and the yield curve. Instruments such as U.S. Treasury futures might be used when cash bonds are unavailable or not attractively priced.

American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York
The fund recorded a total return of 6.57% for the fiscal year, trailing the Bloomberg Barclays New York Municipal Index, a market value-weighted index that includes only investment-grade (rated BBB/Baa and above) tax-exempt bonds of issuers within the state of New York, which returned 7.17%. This index is unmanaged, and its results include reinvested distributions but do not reflect the effect of sales charges, commissions, account fees, expenses or U.S. federal income taxes. The fund’s result was in line with the Lipper New York Municipal Debt Funds average, a peer group measure, which posted a 6.56% total return.
For the fiscal year, the fund paid monthly dividends totaling approximately 28 cents a share. This represents an income return of 2.63% for those who reinvested dividends. For investors in the 49.62%1 combined effective federal, New York state and New York City tax bracket, this is equivalent to a taxable income return of 5.22%. Health care and education bonds were beneficial to the fund’s return. The fund’s lower weighting in special tax bonds proved detrimental when compared to the benchmark.

* | Bond ratings, which typically range from AAA/Aaa (highest) to D (lowest), are assigned by credit rating agencies such as Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and/or Fitch as an indication of an issuer’s creditworthiness. In assigning a credit rating to a security, the fund looks specifically to the ratings assigned to the issuer of the security by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and/or Fitch. If agency ratings differ, the security will be considered to have received the highest of those ratings, consistent with the fund’s investment policies. The ratings are not covered by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. |

Notes to financial statements
1. Organization
American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund, The Tax-Exempt Fund of California, which is presently the only series of The American Funds Tax-Exempt Series II, and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York (each a “fund” or collectively, the “funds”), are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as open-end, diversified management investment companies.
Each fund’s investment objectives are as follows:
American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund — Seeks to provide current income exempt from regular federal income tax, consistent with the maturity and quality standards described in the prospectus, and to preserve capital.
Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America — Seeks to provide current income exempt from regular federal income tax, consistent with the maturity and quality standards described in the prospectus, and to preserve capital.
The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America — Seeks to provide a high level of current income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with the preservation of capital.
American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund — Seeks to provide a high level of current income exempt from regular federal income tax.
The Tax-Exempt Fund of California — Seeks to provide a high level of current income exempt from regular federal and California state income taxes. Its secondary objective is preservation of capital.
American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York — Seeks to provide a high level of current income exempt from regular federal, New York state and New York City income taxes. Its secondary objective is preservation of capital.
American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund has six share classes consisting of five retail share classes (Classes A and T, as well as three F share classes, F-1, F-2 and F-3) and one share class that is only available to the American Funds Portfolio Series (Class R-6). Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America and American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund each have seven share classes consisting of six retail share classes (Classes A, C and T, as well as three F share classes, F-1, F-2 and F-3) and one share class that is only available to the American Funds Portfolio Series (Class R-6). The Tax-Exempt Fund of California and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York each have six retail share classes (Classes A, C and T, as well as three F share classes, F-1, F-2 and F-3). Some share classes are only available to limited categories of investors. The funds’ share classes are described further in the following table:
Share class | Initial sales charge | Contingent deferred sales charge upon redemption |
Conversion feature | |||
Class A | Up to 2.50% for American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund and Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America; up to 3.75% for all other funds | None (except 1% for certain redemptions within 18 months of purchase without an initial sales charge) | None | |||
Class C* | None | 1% for redemptions within one year of purchase | Class C converts to Class F-1 after 10 years | |||
Class T† | Up to 2.50% | None | None | |||
Classes F-1, F-2 and F-3 | None | None | None | |||
Class R-6 | None | None | None |
* | Class C shares are not available for purchase in Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America. |
† | Class T shares are not available for purchase. |
Holders of all share classes of each fund have equal pro rata rights to the assets, dividends and liquidation proceeds of each fund held. Each share class of each fund has identical voting rights, except for the exclusive right to vote on matters affecting only its class. Share classes have different fees and expenses (“class-specific fees and expenses”), primarily due to different arrangements for distribution, transfer agent and administrative services. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different per-share dividends by each share class of each fund.

2. Significant accounting policies
Each fund is an investment company that applies the accounting and reporting guidance issued in Topic 946 by the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board. Each fund’s financial statements have been prepared to comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). These principles require the funds’ investment adviser to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Subsequent events, if any, have been evaluated through the date of issuance in the preparation of the financial statements. The funds follow the significant accounting policies described in this section, as well as the valuation policies described in the next section on valuation.
Security transactions and related investment income — Security transactions are recorded by the funds as of the date the trades are executed with brokers. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are determined based on the specific identified cost of the securities. In the event a security is purchased with a delayed payment date, the funds will segregate liquid assets sufficient to meet their payment obligations. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Market discounts, premiums and original issue discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized daily over the expected life of the security.
Class allocations — Income, fees and expenses (other than class-specific fees and expenses) are allocated daily among the various share classes of each fund based on the relative value of their settled shares. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily among the various share classes of each fund based on their relative net assets. Class-specific fees and expenses, such as distribution, transfer agent and administrative services, are charged directly to the respective share class of each fund.
Distributions paid or accrued to shareholders — Income dividends are declared daily after the determination of each fund’s net investment income and are paid to shareholders monthly. Capital gain distributions are recorded on each fund’s ex-dividend date.
3. Valuation
Capital Research and Management Company (“CRMC”), the funds’ investment adviser, values each fund’s investments at fair value as defined by U.S. GAAP. The net asset value of each share class of each fund is generally determined as of approximately 4:00 p.m. New York time each day the New York Stock Exchange is open.
Methods and inputs — The funds’ investment adviser uses the following methods and inputs to establish the fair value of each fund’s assets and liabilities. Use of particular methods and inputs may vary over time based on availability and relevance as market and economic conditions evolve.
Fixed-income securities, including short-term securities, are generally valued at prices obtained from one or more pricing vendors. Vendors value such securities based on one or more of the following inputs: benchmark yields, transactions, bids, offers, quotations from dealers and trading systems, new issues, spreads and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities; and proprietary pricing models such as yield measures calculated using factors such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance and other reference data. For certain distressed securities, valuations may include cash flows or liquidation values using a net present value calculation based on inputs that include, but are not limited to, financial statements and debt contracts.
When the funds’ investment adviser deems it appropriate to do so (such as when vendor prices are unavailable or not deemed to be representative), fixed-income securities will be valued in good faith at the mean quoted bid and ask prices that are reasonably and timely available (or bid prices, if ask prices are not available) or at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type. Some securities may be valued based on their effective maturity or average life, which may be shorter than the stated maturity.
Exchange-traded futures are generally valued at the official settlement price of the exchange or market on which such instruments are traded, as of the close of business on the day the futures are being valued.
American Funds Tax-Exempt Funds | 95 |
Securities and other assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable by the funds’ investment adviser are fair valued as determined in good faith under fair valuation guidelines adopted by authority of each fund’s board of trustees as further described. The investment adviser follows fair valuation guidelines, consistent with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules and guidance, to consider relevant principles and factors when making fair value determinations. The investment adviser considers relevant indications of value that are reasonably and timely available to it in determining the fair value to be assigned to a particular security, such as the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions. In addition, the closing prices of equity securities that trade in markets outside U.S. time zones may be adjusted to reflect significant events that occur after the close of local trading but before the net asset value of each share class of the fund is determined. Fair valuations and valuations of investments that are not actively trading involve judgment and may differ materially from valuations that would have been used had greater market activity occurred.
Processes and structure — Each fund’s board of trustees has delegated authority to the funds’ investment adviser to make fair value determinations, subject to board oversight. The investment adviser has established a Joint Fair Valuation Committee (the “Fair Valuation Committee”) to administer, implement and oversee the fair valuation process, and to make fair value decisions. The Fair Valuation Committee regularly reviews its own fair value decisions, as well as decisions made under its standing instructions to the investment adviser’s valuation teams. The Fair Valuation Committee reviews changes in fair value measurements from period to period and may, as deemed appropriate, update the fair valuation guidelines to better reflect the results of back testing and address new or evolving issues. The Fair Valuation Committee reports any changes to the fair valuation guidelines to the boards of trustees. Each fund’s board and audit committee also regularly review reports that describe fair value determinations and methods.
The funds’ investment adviser has also established a Fixed-Income Pricing Review Group to administer and oversee the fixed-income valuation process, including the use of fixed-income pricing vendors. This group regularly reviews pricing vendor information and market data. Pricing decisions, processes and controls over security valuation are also subject to additional internal reviews, including an annual control self-evaluation program facilitated by the investment adviser’s compliance group.
Classifications — The funds’ investment adviser classifies each fund’s assets and liabilities into three levels based on the inputs used to value the assets or liabilities. Level 1 values are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 values are based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices for similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets. Certain securities trading outside the U.S. may transfer between Level 1 and Level 2 due to valuation adjustments resulting from significant market movements following the close of local trading. Level 3 values are based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the investment adviser’s determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. For example, U.S. government securities are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.

4. Risk factors
Investing in each fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.
Market conditions — The prices of, and the income generated by, the securities held by the funds may decline — sometimes rapidly or unpredictably — due to various factors, including events or conditions affecting the general economy or particular industries; overall market changes; local, regional or global political, social or economic instability; governmental, governmental agency or central bank responses to economic conditions; and currency exchange rate, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations.
Issuer risks — The prices of, and the income generated by, securities held by the funds may decline in response to various factors directly related to the issuers of such securities, including reduced demand for an issuer’s goods or services, poor management performance, major litigation related to the issuer, changes in government regulations affecting the issuer or its competitive environment and strategic initiatives such as mergers, acquisitions or dispositions and the market response to any such initiatives.
Investing in municipal securities — The yield and/or value of the funds’ investments in municipal securities may be adversely affected by events tied to the municipal securities markets, which can be very volatile and significantly impacted by unfavorable legislative or political developments and negative changes in the financial conditions of municipal securities issuers and the economy. To the extent the funds invest in obligations of a municipal issuer, the volatility, credit quality and performance of the funds may be adversely impacted by local political and economic conditions of the issuer. For example, a credit rating downgrade, bond default or bankruptcy involving an issuer within a particular state or territory could affect the market values and marketability of many or all municipal obligations of that state or territory. Income from municipal securities held by the funds could also be declared taxable because of changes in tax laws or interpretations by taxing authorities or as a result of noncompliant conduct of a municipal issuer. Additionally, the relative amount of publicly available information about municipal securities is generally less than that for corporate securities.
Investing in debt instruments — The prices of, and the income generated by, bonds and other debt securities held by the funds may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in the effective maturities and credit ratings of these securities.
Rising interest rates will generally cause the prices of bonds and other debt securities to fall. A general rise in interest rates may cause investors to sell debt securities on a large scale, which could also adversely affect the price and liquidity of debt securities and could also result in increased redemptions from the funds. Falling interest rates may cause an issuer to redeem, call or refinance a debt security before its stated maturity, which may result in the funds failing to recoup the full amount of its initial investment and having to reinvest the proceeds in lower yielding securities. Longer maturity debt securities generally have greater sensitivity to changes in interest rates and may be subject to greater price fluctuations than shorter maturity debt securities.
Bonds and other debt securities are also subject to credit risk, which is the possibility that the credit strength of an issuer or guarantor will weaken or be perceived to be weaker, and/or an issuer of a debt security will fail to make timely payments of principal or interest and the security will go into default. A downgrade or default affecting any of the fund’s securities could cause the value of the fund’s shares to decrease. Lower quality debt securities generally have higher rates of interest and may be subject to greater price fluctuations than higher quality debt securities. Credit risk is gauged, in part, by the credit ratings of the debt securities in which the funds invest. However, ratings are only the opinions of the rating agencies issuing them and are not guarantees as to credit quality or an evaluation of market risk. The funds’ investment adviser relies on its own credit analysts to research issuers and issues in seeking to assess credit and default risks.
Liquidity risk — Certain fund holdings may be or become difficult or impossible to sell, particularly during times of market turmoil. Liquidity may be impacted by the lack of an active market for a holding, legal or contractual restrictions on resale, or the reduced number and capacity of market participants to make a market in such holding. Market prices for less liquid or illiquid holdings may be volatile, and reduced liquidity may have an adverse impact on the market price of such holdings. Additionally, the sale of less liquid or illiquid holdings may involve substantial delays (including delays in settlement) and additional costs and the fund may be unable to sell such holdings when necessary to meet its liquidity needs or may be forced to sell at a loss.
Credit and liquidity support — Changes in the credit quality of banks and financial institutions providing credit and liquidity support features with respect to securities held by the funds could cause the values of these securities to decline.
100 | American Funds Tax-Exempt Funds |
Investing in lower rated debt instruments — Lower rated bonds and other lower rated debt securities generally have higher rates of interest and involve greater risk of default or price declines due to changes in the issuer’s creditworthiness than those of higher quality debt securities. The market prices of these securities may fluctuate more than the prices of higher quality debt securities and may decline significantly in periods of general economic difficulty. These risks may be increased with respect to investments in junk bonds.
Investing in similar municipal bonds — Investing significantly in municipal obligations of multiple issuers in the same state or backed by revenues of similar types of projects or industries may make the funds more susceptible to certain economic, political or regulatory occurrences. As a result, the potential for fluctuations in the funds’ share price may increase.
Risks of investing in municipal bonds of issuers within the state of California — Because The Tax-Exempt Fund of California invests primarily in securities of issuers within the state of California, the fund is more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of California securities than a comparable municipal bond mutual fund that does not concentrate its investments in a single state. For example, in the past, California voters have passed amendments to the state’s constitution and other measures that limit the taxing and spending authority of California governmental entities, and future voter initiatives may adversely affect California municipal bonds.
Risks of investing in municipal bonds of issuers within the state of New York — Because American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York invests primarily in securities of issuers within the state of New York, the fund is more susceptible to factors adversely affecting issuers of New York securities than a comparable municipal bond mutual fund that does not concentrate its investments in a single state. For example, such factors may include political policy changes, tax base erosion, state constitutional limits on tax increases, budget deficits and other financial or economic difficulties, and changes in the credit ratings assigned to New York’s municipal issuers. New York’s economy and finances may be especially vulnerable to changes in the performance of the financial services sector, which historically has been volatile.
Management — The investment adviser to the funds actively manages the funds’ investments. Consequently, the funds are subject to the risk that the methods and analyses, including models, tools and data, employed by the investment adviser in this process may be flawed or incorrect and may not produce the desired results. This could cause the funds to lose value or their investment results to lag relevant benchmarks or other funds with similar objectives.

5. Certain investment techniques
Unfunded commitments — American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund has participated in transactions that involve unfunded commitments, which may obligate the fund to purchase new or additional bonds if certain contingencies are met. As of July 31, 2019, the maximum exposure of unfunded bond commitments for American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund was $2,154,000, which would represent less than .01% of the net assets of the fund should such commitments become due.
Futures contracts — Each fund has entered into futures contracts, which provide for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified amount of a specific financial instrument for a specified price, date, time and place designated at the time the contract is made. Futures contracts are used to strategically manage the fund’s interest rate sensitivity by increasing or decreasing the duration of the fund or a portion of the fund’s portfolio.
Upon entering into futures contracts, and to maintain the fund’s open positions in futures contracts, each fund is required to deposit with a futures broker, known as a futures commission merchant (“FCM”), in a segregated account in the name of the FCM an amount of cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid securities, known as initial margin. The margin required for a particular futures contract is set by the exchange on which the contract is traded to serve as collateral, and may be significantly modified from time to time by the exchange during the term of the contract. Securities deposited as initial margin, if any, are disclosed in the investment portfolio and cash deposited as initial margin, if any, is reflected as cash pledged for futures contracts in the fund’s statement of assets and liabilities.
On a daily basis, each fund pays or receives variation margin based on the increase or decrease in the value of the futures contracts and records variation margin on futures contracts in the statement of assets and liabilities. In addition, each fund segregates liquid assets equivalent to each fund’s outstanding obligations under the contract in excess of the initial margin and variation margin, if any. Futures contracts may involve a risk of loss in excess of the variation margin shown on each fund’s statement of assets and liabilities. Each fund records realized gains or losses at the time the futures contract is closed or expires. Net realized gains or losses and net unrealized appreciation or depreciation from futures contracts are recorded in each fund’s statement of operations.
The following table presents the average month-end notional amount of futures contracts while held for each fund (dollars in thousands):

* | Includes cumulative appreciation/depreciation on futures contracts as reported in the applicable table following each fund’s investment portfolio. Only current day’s variation margin is reported within each fund’s statement of assets and liabilities. |
Collateral — Each fund participates in a collateral program due to each fund’s use of futures contracts that calls for each fund to either receive or pledge highly liquid assets, such as cash or U.S. government securities, as collateral for initial and variation margin by contract. The purpose of the collateral is to cover potential losses that could occur in the event that either party cannot meet its contractual obligation. Non-cash collateral pledged by each fund, if any, is disclosed in each fund’s investment portfolio, and cash collateral pledged by each fund, if any, is held in a segregated account with each fund’s custodian, which is reflected as pledged cash in each fund’s statement of assets and liabilities.
6. Taxation and distributions
Federal income taxation — Each fund complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to mutual funds and intends to distribute substantially all of its net tax-exempt income and net capital gains each year. Generally, income earned by each fund is exempt from federal income taxes; however, each fund may earn taxable income from certain investments. The funds are not subject to income taxes to the extent such taxable income and net capital gains are distributed. To the extent the funds recognize taxable income, the funds may pay tax on such income in lieu of making distributions; amounts paid are included within federal, state and local taxes on the funds’ statements of operations.
As of and during the period ended July 31, 2019, none of the funds had a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. Each fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in their respective statements of operations. During the period, none of the funds incurred any significant interest or penalties.
Each fund’s tax returns are not subject to examination by federal, state and, if applicable, non-U.S. tax authorities after the expiration of each jurisdiction’s statute of limitations, which is generally three years after the date of filing but can be extended in certain jurisdictions.
Distributions — Distributions paid to shareholders are based on each fund’s net investment income and net realized gains determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income and net realized gains for financial reporting purposes. These differences are due primarily to different treatment for items such as short-term capital gains and losses; capital losses related to sales of certain securities within 30 days of purchase; deferred expenses; cost of investments sold; net capital losses; amortization of premiums and discounts and income on certain investments. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income and net realized gains are recorded by the funds for financial reporting purposes.
Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”), net capital losses recognized after July 31, 2011, (August 31, 2011, for The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America and The Tax-Exempt Fund of California) may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term and/or long-term losses. Previously, net capital losses were carried forward for eight years and treated as short-term losses. As a transition rule, the Act requires that post-enactment net capital losses be used before pre-enactment net capital losses.

7. Fees and transactions with related parties
CRMC, the funds’ investment adviser, is the parent company of American Funds Distributors,® Inc. (“AFD”), the principal underwriter of the funds’ shares, and American Funds Service Company® (“AFS”), the funds’ transfer agent. CRMC, AFD and AFS are considered related parties to each fund.
Investment advisory services — Each fund has an investment advisory and service agreement with CRMC that provides for monthly fees accrued daily. These fees are based on annual rates that generally decrease as net asset levels increase. On March 4, 2019, the boards of trustees of American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York approved amended agreements effective May 1, 2019, amending the annual rates to 0.341% and 0.204%, respectively, of each fund’s daily net assets. The agreement for each fund, except American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, also provides for monthly fees accrued daily based on a series of decreasing rates on each fund’s monthly gross income.
The range of rates, net asset levels, gross income levels and annualized rates of average net assets for each fund are as follows:

Class-specific fees and expenses — Expenses that are specific to individual share classes are accrued directly to the respective share class of each fund. The principal class-specific fees and expenses are described below:
Distribution services — Each fund has plans of distribution for all share classes, except Class F-2, F-3 and R-6 shares, if applicable. Under the plans, each fund’s board of trustees approves certain categories of expenses that are used to finance activities primarily intended to sell fund shares and service existing accounts. The plans provide for payments based on an annualized percentage of average daily net assets. In some cases, the boards of trustees have limited the amounts that may be paid to less than the maximum allowed by the plans. All share classes with a plan may use the allotted percentage of average daily net assets to pay service fees, or to compensate AFD for paying service fees, to firms that have entered into agreements with AFD to provide certain shareholder services. The remaining amounts available to be paid under each plan are paid to dealers to compensate them for their sales activities.

Transfer agent services — Each fund has a shareholder services agreement with AFS under which each fund compensates AFS for providing transfer agent services to each of the funds’ share classes. These services include recordkeeping, shareholder communications and transaction processing. In addition, each fund reimburses AFS for amounts paid to third parties for performing transfer agent services on behalf of its respective fund shareholders.
Administrative services — Each fund has an administrative services agreement with CRMC under which each fund compensates CRMC for providing administrative services to each of the funds’ share classes. Administrative services are provided by CRMC to help assist third parties providing non-distribution services to fund shareholders. These services include providing in depth information on each fund and market developments that impact each fund’s investments. Administrative services also include, but are not limited to, coordinating, monitoring and overseeing third parties that provide services to each fund’s shareholders. The agreement provides each fund the ability to charge an administrative services fee at the annual rate of 0.05% of the daily net assets attributable to each share class of each fund. Prior to July 1, 2019, Class A shares paid CRMC an administrative services fee at the annual fee of 0.01% of daily net assets and all other share classes paid a fee at the annual rate of 0.05% of their respective daily net assets. Each fund’s board of trustees authorized the respective funds to pay CRMC effective July 1, 2019, an administrative services fee at the annual rate of 0.03% of the daily net assets attributable to each share class of each fund (which could increase as noted above) for CRMC’s provision of administrative services.

Trustees’ deferred compensation — Trustees who are unaffiliated with CRMC may elect to defer the cash payment of part or all of their compensation. These deferred amounts, which remain as liabilities of each fund, are treated as if invested in shares of the funds or other American Funds. These amounts represent general, unsecured liabilities of each fund and vary according to the total returns of the selected funds. Trustees’ compensation in the funds’ statements of operations reflects the current fees (either paid in cash or deferred) and a net increase in the value of the following deferred amounts (dollars in thousands):

Affiliated officers and trustees — Officers and certain trustees of the funds are or may be considered to be affiliated with CRMC, AFD and AFS. No affiliated officers or trustees received any compensation directly from the funds.
Security transactions with related funds — Each fund may purchase securities from, or sell securities to, other CRMC-managed funds (or funds managed by certain affiliates of CRMC) under procedures adopted by each fund’s board of trustees. The funds involved in such transactions are considered related by virtue of having a common investment adviser (or affiliated investment advisers), common trustees and/or common officers. When such transactions occur, each transaction is executed at the current market price of the security and no brokerage commissions or fees are paid in accordance with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act.
Interfund lending — Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds, along with other CRMC-managed funds (or funds managed by certain affiliates of CRMC), may participate in an interfund lending program. The program provides an alternate credit facility that permits the funds to lend or borrow cash for temporary purposes directly to or from one another, subject to the conditions of the exemptive order. None of the funds lent or borrowed cash during the year ended July 31, 2019.
8. Committed line of credit
American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund participates with other funds managed by CRMC (or funds managed by certain affiliates of CRMC) in a $1.5 billion credit facility (the “line of credit”) to be utilized for temporary purposes to support shareholder redemptions. The fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which are reflected in other expenses in the fund’s statement of operations. The fund did not borrow on this line of credit at any time during the year ended July 31, 2019.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York and to the Board of Trustees of The American Funds Tax-Exempt Series II and Shareholders of The Tax-Exempt Fund of California
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the summary investment portfolios, of American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund, The Tax-Exempt Fund of California and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York (the “Funds”) as of July 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended July 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended July 31, 2019, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of July 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended July 31, 2019 and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Expense example | unaudited |
As a fund shareholder, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, such as initial sales charges on purchase payments and contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions (loads), and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund so you can compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six-month period (February 1, 2019, through July 31, 2019).
Actual expenses:
The first line of each share class in the tables on the following pages provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading titled “Expenses paid during period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical example for comparison purposes:
The second line of each share class in the tables on the following pages provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio for the share class and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of the share class. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5.00% hypothetical example with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Notes:
Class F-1, F-2 and F-3 shareholders may be subject to fees charged by financial intermediaries, typically ranging from 0.75% to 1.50% of assets annually depending on services offered. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would be lower by the amount of these fees.
Note that the expenses shown in the table on the following pages are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Approval of Investment Advisory and Service Agreement
American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund, The Tax-Exempt Fund of California, American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York
The boards of American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund, The Tax-Exempt Fund of California and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York (the “board”) have approved each fund’s Investment Advisory and Service Agreement (the “agreement”) with Capital Research and Management Company (“CRMC”) for an additional one-year term through April 30, 2020. The agreements for American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York were amended to modify the initial advisory fee breakpoints resulting in an overall lower advisory fee, thereby allowing each fund to benefit from a total expense ratio reflecting reasonable scale instead of waiting until each fund reaches that size over time. The board approved the agreement following the recommendation of each fund’s Contracts Committee (the “committee”), which is composed of each fund’s independent board members. The board and the committee determined in the exercise of their business judgment that each fund’s advisory fee structure was fair and reasonable in relation to the services provided, and that approving the agreement was in the best interests of each fund and its shareholders.
In reaching this decision, the board and the committee took into account information furnished to them throughout the year and otherwise provided to them, as well as information prepared specifically in connection with their review of the agreements, and were advised by their independent counsel with respect to the matters considered. They considered the following factors, among others, but did not identify any single issue or particular piece of information that, in isolation, was the controlling factor, and each board and committee member did not necessarily attribute the same weight to each factor.
1. Nature, extent and quality of services
The board and the committee considered the depth and quality of CRMC’s investment management process, including its global research capabilities; the experience, capability and integrity of its senior management and other personnel; the low turnover rates of its key personnel; the overall financial strength and stability of CRMC and the Capital Group organization; the resources and systems CRMC devotes to investment management, compliance, trading, portfolio accounting and other services; and the ongoing evolution of CRMC’s organizational structure designed to maintain and strengthen these qualities. The board and the committee also considered the nature, extent and quality of administrative, compliance and shareholder services provided by CRMC to the funds under each fund’s agreement and other agreements, as well as the benefits to each fund’s shareholders from investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds. The board and the committee concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CRMC have benefited and should continue to benefit each fund and its shareholders.

Approval of Investment Advisory and Service Agreement (continued)
2. Investment results
The board and the committee considered the investment results of each fund in light of its objective. They compared each fund’s investment results with those of other relevant funds (including funds that currently form the basis of the Lipper index for the category in which the fund is included), and data such as relevant market and fund indexes, over various periods through September 30, 2018. This report, including the letter to shareholders and related disclosures, contains certain information about each fund’s investment results.
American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund seeks to provide current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax, consistent with the maturity and quality standards described in the prospectus, and to preserve capital. The board and the committee reviewed the fund’s investment results measured against the Lipper Short Municipal Debt Funds Average and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Short 1–5 Years Index. They reviewed the results for the one-year, three-year, five-year and lifetime periods, and placed greater emphasis on longer term periods. They noted the fund’s relatively short history and conversion from a municipal money market fund, and that the investment results of the fund were mixed compared to the results of these indexes.
Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America seeks to provide current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax, consistent with the maturity and quality standards described in the prospectus, and to preserve capital. The board and the committee reviewed the fund’s investment results measured against the Lipper Short-Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Average and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Short-Intermediate 1–10 Years Index. They reviewed the results for the one-year, three-year, five-year, 10-year, 20-year and lifetime periods, and placed greater emphasis on longer term periods. They noted that the investment results of the fund generally compared favorably to the results of these indexes.
The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America seeks to provide a high level of current income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with the preservation of capital. The board and the committee reviewed the fund’s investment results measured against the Lipper General & Insured Municipal Debt Funds Average and the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index. They reviewed the results for the one-year, three-year, five-year, 10-year, 20-year and lifetime periods, and placed greater emphasis on longer term periods. They noted that the investment results of the fund generally compared favorably to the results of these indexes.
American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund seeks to provide a high level of current income exempt from regular federal income tax. The board and the committee reviewed the fund’s investment results measured against the Lipper High Yield Municipal Debt Funds Average, the Bloomberg Barclays Municipal Bond Index and the Bloomberg Barclays High Yield Municipal Bond Index. They reviewed the results for the one-year, three-year, five-year, 10-year, 20-year and lifetime periods, and placed greater emphasis on longer term periods. They noted that the investment results of the fund were mixed compared to the results of these indexes.
132 | American Funds Tax-Exempt Funds |
The Tax-Exempt Fund of California seeks to provide a high level of current income exempt from regular federal and California income taxes, with a secondary objective of preservation of capital. The board and the committee reviewed the fund’s investment results measured against the Lipper California Municipal Debt Funds Average and the Bloomberg Barclays California Municipal Index. They reviewed the results for the one-year, three-year, five-year, 10-year, 20-year and lifetime periods, and placed greater emphasis on longer term periods. They noted that the investment results of the fund generally compared favorably to the results of these indexes.
American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York seeks to provide a high level of current income exempt from regular federal, New York state and New York City income taxes, with a secondary objective of preservation of capital. The board and the committee reviewed the fund’s investment results measured against the Lipper New York Municipal Debt Funds Average and the Bloomberg Barclays New York Municipal Index. They reviewed the results for the one-year, three-year, five-year and lifetime periods, and placed greater emphasis on longer term periods. They noted the fund’s relatively short history, and that the investment results of the fund generally compared favorably to the results of these indexes.
The board and the committee concluded that each fund’s investment results have been satisfactory for renewal of the agreement, and that CRMC’s record in managing the funds indicated that its continued management should benefit the funds and their shareholders.
3. Advisory fees and total expenses
The board and the committee compared the advisory fees and total expense levels of each fund to those of other relevant funds. They observed that each fund’s advisory fees and total expenses generally compared favorably to those of other similar funds included in their respective categories (with the exception of American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund’s advisory fees, which were slightly higher than those of other similar funds included in its respective category, while expenses were in line with those of other funds in the category). The board and the committee also considered the breakpoint discounts in each fund’s advisory fee structure that reduce the level of fees charged by CRMC to each fund as fund assets increase, as well as CRMC’s agreement to amend the initial breakpoints for American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York. In addition, they reviewed information regarding the effective advisory fees charged to non-mutual fund clients by CRMC and its affiliates. They noted that, to the extent there were differences between the advisory fees paid by each fund and the advisory fees paid by those clients, the differences appropriately reflected the investment, operational, regulatory and market differences between advising the funds and the other clients. The board and the committee concluded that each fund’s cost structure was fair and reasonable in relation to the services provided, and that each fund’s shareholders receive reasonable value in return for the advisory fees and other amounts paid to CRMC by the funds.

4. Ancillary benefits
The board and the committee considered a variety of other benefits that CRMC and its affiliates receive as a result of CRMC’s relationship with each fund and other American Funds, including fees for administrative services provided to certain share classes; fees paid to CRMC’s affiliated transfer agent; sales charges and distribution fees received and retained by the funds’ principal underwriter, an affiliate of CRMC; and possible ancillary benefits to CRMC and its institutional management affiliates in managing other investment vehicles. The board and the committee reviewed CRMC’s portfolio trading practices, noting that through December 31, 2018, CRMC benefited from research obtained with commissions from portfolio transactions made on behalf of the fund, and since that time has undertaken to bear the cost of obtaining such research. The board and the committee took these ancillary benefits into account in evaluating the reasonableness of the advisory fees and other amounts paid to CRMC by each fund.
5. Adviser financial information
The board and the committee reviewed information regarding CRMC’s costs of providing services to the American Funds, including personnel, systems and resources of investment, compliance, trading, accounting and other administrative operations. They considered CRMC’s costs and related cost allocation methodology as well as its track record of investing in technology, infrastructure and staff to maintain and expand services and capabilities, respond to industry and regulatory developments, and attract and retain qualified personnel. They noted information regarding the compensation structure for CRMC’s investment professionals. They reviewed information on the profitability of the investment adviser and its affiliates. The board and the committee also compared CRMC’s profitability and compensation data to the reported results and data of several large, publicly held investment management companies. The board and the committee noted the competitiveness and cyclicality of both the mutual fund industry and the capital markets, and the importance in that environment of CRMC’s long-term profitability for maintaining its independence, company culture and management continuity. They further considered the breakpoint discounts in each fund’s advisory fee structure and CRMC’s sharing of potential economies of scale, or efficiencies, through breakpoints and other fee reductions and costs voluntarily absorbed. The board and the committee concluded that each fund’s advisory fee structure reflected a reasonable sharing of benefits between CRMC and each fund’s shareholders.

The Capital Advantage®
Since 1931, Capital Group, home of American Funds, has helped investors pursue long-term investment success. Our consistent approach — in combination with The Capital SystemSM — has resulted in superior outcomes.
Aligned with investor success
We base our decisions on a long-term perspective, which we believe aligns our goals with the interests of our clients. Our portfolio managers average 27 years of investment experience, including 20 years at our company, reflecting a career commitment to our long-term approach.1
The Capital System
The Capital System combines individual accountability with teamwork. Funds using The Capital System are divided into portions that are managed independently by investment professionals with diverse backgrounds, ages and investment approaches. An extensive global research effort is the backbone of our system.
American Funds’ superior outcomes
Equity funds have beaten their Lipper peer indexes in 92% of 10-year periods and 99% of 20-year periods.2 Fixed income funds have helped investors achieve diversification through attention to correlation between bonds and equities.3 Fund management fees have been among the lowest in the industry.4
1 | Portfolio manager experience as of December 31, 2018. | |
2 | Based on Class F-2 share results for rolling periods through December 31, 2018. Periods covered are the shorter of the fund’s lifetime or since the comparable Lipper index inception date (except Capital Income Builder and SMALLCAP World Fund, for which the Lipper average was used). Expenses differ for each share class, so results will vary. | |
3 | Based on Class F-2 share results, as of December 31, 2018. Fourteen of our 15 American Funds fixed income funds that have been in existence for the three-year period showed a three-year correlation below 0.2. Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Index was used as an equity market proxy. Correlation based on monthly total returns. Correlation is a statistical measure of how two securities move in relation to each other. A correlation ranges from –1 to 1. A positive correlation close to 1 implies that as one security moves, either up or down, the other security will move in “lockstep,” in the same direction. A negative correlation close to –1 indicates that the securities have moved in the opposite direction. | |
4 | On average, our management fees were in the lowest quintile 70% of the time, based on the 20-year period ended December 31, 2018, versus comparable Lipper categories, excluding funds of funds. | |
Class F-2 shares were first offered on August 1, 2008. Class F-2 share results prior to the date of first sale are hypothetical based on Class A share results without a sales charge, adjusted for typical estimated expenses. Results for certain funds with an inception date after August 1, 2008, also include hypothetical returns because those funds’ Class F-2 shares sold after the funds’ date of first offering. Please see capitalgroup.com for more information on specific expense adjustments and the actual dates of first sale. | ||

ITEM 2 – Code of Ethics
The Registrant has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer. The Registrant undertakes to provide to any person without charge, upon request, a copy of the Code of Ethics. Such request can be made by calling 800/421-4225 or to the Secretary of the Registrant, 6455 Irvine Center Drive, Irvine, California 92618.
ITEM 3 – Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Registrant’s board has determined that Laurel B. Mitchell, a member of the Registrant’s audit committee, is an “audit committee financial expert” and "independent," as such terms are defined in this Item. This designation will not increase the designee’s duties, obligations or liability as compared to his or her duties, obligations and liability as a member of the audit committee and of the board, nor will it reduce the responsibility of the other audit committee members. There may be other individuals who, through education or experience, would qualify as "audit committee financial experts" if the board had designated them as such. Most importantly, the board believes each member of the audit committee contributes significantly to the effective oversight of the Registrant’s financial statements and condition.

The committee will not delegate its responsibility to pre-approve these services to the investment adviser. The committee may delegate to one or more committee members the authority to review and pre-approve audit and permissible non-audit services. Actions taken under any such delegation will be reported to the full committee at its next meeting. The pre-approval requirement is waived with respect to non-audit services if certain conditions are met. The pre-approval requirement was not waived for any of the non-audit services listed above provided to the Registrant, adviser and affiliates. | ||

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York and to the
Board of Trustees of The American Funds Tax-Exempt Series II and Shareholders of The Tax-Exempt Fund of California
Opinions on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the summary investment portfolios, of American Funds Short-Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund, Limited Term Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, The Tax-Exempt Bond Fund of America, American High-Income Municipal Bond Fund, The Tax-Exempt Fund of California and American Funds Tax-Exempt Fund of New York (the "Funds") as of July 31, 2019, the related statements of operations for the year ended July 31, 2019, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended July 31, 2019, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (included in Item 1 of this Form N-CSR) and the investment portfolios (included in Item 6 of this Form N-CSR) as of July 31, 2019 (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of July 31, 2019, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period ended July 31, 2019 and each of the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2019 by correspondence with the custodians and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

ITEM 7 – Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies
Not applicable to this Registrant, insofar as the Registrant is not a closed-end management investment company.
ITEM 8 – Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies
Not applicable to this Registrant, insofar as the Registrant is not a closed-end management investment company.
ITEM 9 – Purchases of Equity Securities by Closed-End Management Investment Company and Affiliated Purchasers
Not applicable to this Registrant, insofar as the Registrant is not a closed-end management investment company.
ITEM 10 – Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
There have been no material changes to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the Registrant’s board of trustees since the Registrant last submitted a proxy statement to its shareholders. The procedures are as follows. The Registrant has a nominating and governance committee comprised solely of persons who are not considered ‘‘interested persons’’ of the Registrant within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The committee periodically reviews such issues as the board’s composition, responsibilities, committees, compensation and other relevant issues, and recommends any appropriate changes to the full board of trustees. While the committee normally is able to identify from its own resources an ample number of qualified candidates, it will consider shareholder suggestions of persons to be considered as nominees to fill future vacancies on the board. Such suggestions must be sent in writing to the nominating and governance committee of the Registrant, c/o the Registrant’s Secretary, and must be accompanied by complete biographical and occupational data on the prospective nominee, along with a written consent of the prospective nominee for consideration of his or her name by the nominating and governance committee.
ITEM 11 – Controls and Procedures
(a) | The Registrant’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 30a-3 under the Investment Company Act of 1940), that such controls and procedures are adequate and reasonably designed to achieve the purposes described in paragraph (c) of such rule. |
(b) |
There were no changes in the Registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the Investment Company Act of 1940) that occurred during the Registrant’s semi-annual period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
