President’s Letter
Dear Stockholders,
On February 13, 2023, Amundi US celebrated the 95
th
anniversary of Pioneer Fund, the second-oldest mutual fund in the United States. We recognized the anniversary with ringing of the closing bell at the New York Stock Exchange, which seemed fitting for this special milestone.
Pioneer Fund was launched on February 13, 1928 by Phil Carret, one of the earliest proponents of value investing and a leading innovator in the asset management industry. Mr. Carret began investing in the 1920s and founded Pioneer Investments (now Amundi US) in 1928, and was one of the first investors to realize he could uncover value through rigorous, innovative, fundamental research techniques.
Consistent with Mr. Carret’s investment approach and employing many of the same techniques utilized in the 1920s, Amundi US's portfolio managers have adapted Mr. Carret’s philosophy to a new age of “active” investing.
The last few years have seen investors face some unprecedented challenges, from a global pandemic that shuttered much of the world’s economy for months, to geopolitical strife, to rising inflation that has reached levels not seen in decades. Now, more than ever, Amundi US believes active management – that is, making active investment decisions across all of our portfolios – can help mitigate risk during periods of market volatility.
At Amundi US, active management begins with our own fundamental, bottom-up research process. Our team of dedicated research analysts and portfolio managers analyzes each security under consideration, communicating frequently with the management teams of the companies and other entities issuing the securities, and working together to identify those securities that we believe best meet our investment criteria for our family of funds. Our risk management approach begins with each security under consideration, as we strive to develop a deep understanding of the potential opportunity, while considering any potential risk factors.
Today, as stockholders, we have many options. It is our view that active management can serve stockholders well, not only when markets are thriving, but also during periods of market stress. As you consider your long-term investment goals, we encourage you to work with your financial professional to develop an investment plan that paves the way for you to pursue both your short-term and long-term goals.

Portfolio Management Discussion  |  10/31/23
In the following interview, Jonathan Chirunga and David Eurkus discuss the investment environment in the municipal bond market, and the factors that influenced the performance of Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. during the six-month period ended October 31, 2023. Mr. Chirunga, Managing Director, Director of High-Yield Municipals, and a portfolio manager at Amundi Asset Management US, Inc. (Amundi US), and Mr. Eurkus, Managing Director, Director of Municipals, and a portfolio manager at Amundi US, are responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund.
Q
How did the Fund perform during the six-month period ended October 31, 2023?
A
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. returned -15.63% at net asset value (NAV) and -18.58% at market price during the six-month period ended October 31, 2023. During the same six-month period, the Fund’s benchmarks, the Bloomberg US Municipal High Yield Bond Index and the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index, returned -4.77% and -4.65% at NAV, respectively. The Bloomberg US Municipal High Yield Bond Index (the high-yield municipal index) is an unmanaged measure of the performance of lower-rated municipal bonds, while the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged measure of the performance of investment-grade municipal bonds. Unlike the Fund, the indices do not use leverage. While the use of leverage increases investment opportunity, it also increases investment risk.
  During the same six-month period, the average return at NAV of the 30 closed end funds in Morningstar’s Closed End Municipal National Long Funds category (which may or may not be leveraged) was -10.07%, and the average return at market price of the closed-end funds within the same Morningstar category was -13.97%.
  The shares of the Fund were selling at a 16.7% discount to NAV on October 31, 2023. Comparatively, the shares of the Fund were selling at a 13.7% discount to NAV on April 30, 2023.

  On October 31, 2023, the standardized 30-day SEC yield of the Fund’s shares was 6.07%*.
Q
How would you describe the investment environment in the high-yield municipal bond market during the six-month period ended October 31, 2023?
A
High-yield municipal bonds generated a negative return during the six-month period, reflecting the market’s shifting expectations for US Federal Reserve System (Fed) monetary policy. In the early part of the calendar year, investors were anticipating that the Fed would soon shift to a neutral policy and possibly even begin to cut interest rates at some point in 2023. More recently, however, the combination of persistently high inflation, better-than-expected economic growth, and hawkish comments from Fed officials have caused investors to start factoring in a “higher for longer” approach on interest rates by the US central bank. Expectations for the first Fed interest-rate cut moved further into the future as a result, and, by the end of the period, investors appeared to be anticipating that the Fed would not begin easing monetary policy until late 2024.
  The municipal bond market also experienced difficulties driven by concerns about the need for increased US Treasury issuance to fund the nation’s growing debt, which pushed government bond yields higher and pressured returns across the rest of the fixed-income markets. While high-yield municipal bonds were adversely affected by this trend, they managed to perform mostly in-line with, though slightly behind the performance of investment-grade tax-exempt issues over the six-month period.
Q
What factors affected the Fund’s performance relative to the Bloomberg municipal bond indices during the six-month period ended October 31, 2023?
A
The use of leverage, which tends to augment income but also amplifies the effect of price movements, was a key detractor from the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance over the six-month period, as the high-yield municipal bond market
* The 30-day SEC yield is a standardized formula that is based on the hypothetical annualized earning power (investment income only) of the Fund’s portfolio securities during the period indicated.

  experienced a downturn. Unlike the Fund, the two benchmark indices do not use leverage.
  The Fund’s holdings of taxable municipal bonds contributed positively to benchmark-relative performance during the period, as did an underweight to state general obligation debt. On the other hand, allocations to the hospital and transportation sectors detracted from the Fund’s benchmark-relative returns.
  At the individual security level, exposures to District of Columbia Tobacco Settlement Financing Corporation revenue bonds and Maricopa County (Arizona) Industrial Development Authority revenue bonds were the leading positive contributors to the Fund’s benchmark-relative performance. On the other hand Buckeye (Ohio) Tobacco Settlement Financing Authority revenue bonds and Oroville (California) revenue bonds were the largest detractors from the Fund’s relative returns for the six-month period.
  With regard to the Fund’s exposure to tobacco Master Settlement Agreement (MSA) bonds, we have found the bonds to be attractive investments, not only for their potential to enhance performance, but also for the benefits received by the settling states that have issued tobacco bonds since the establishment of the MSA between the settling states and the tobacco-related companies several years ago. Those benefits have included: substantial funding for the advancement of public health; the implementation of important tobacco-related public health measures; and funding towards establishment of a national foundation dedicated to significantly reducing the use of tobacco products among youths.
Q
Did the Fund’s distributions
**
to stockholders change during the six-month period ended October 31, 2023?
A
The Fund’s monthly distribution rate decreased from $0.0375 to $0.0325 per share in May 2023, then declined again to $0.0275 in August, and remained at $0.0275 through the end of the period. The decrease in the Fund’s monthly distribution rate over the period was due to an increase in the cost of the leverage incurred by the Fund, which reduced the amount of funds available for

  distribution. The Fund has accumulated undistributed net investment income which is part of the Fund's NAV. A portion of this accumulated net investment income was distributed to stockholders during the period, and these reserves may be depleted over time. A decrease in distributions may have a negative effect on the market value of the Fund's shares.
Q
Did the level of leverage in the Fund change during the six-month period ended October 31, 2023?
A
On October 31, 2023, 37.3% of the Fund’s total managed assets were financed by leverage obtained through the issuance of Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares, compared with 35.8% of the Fund’s total managed assets financed by leverage at the start of the period on May 1, 2023. During the six-month period, the Fund decreased the absolute amount of leverage by a total of $16 million, to $113.5 million as of October 31, 2023. Nevertheless, the percentage of the Fund’s managed assets financed by leverage increased during the six-month period due to a decrease in the total net assets of the Fund. The interest rate on the Fund's leverage increased by 106 basis points from May 1, 2023 to October 31, 2023.
Q
Did the Fund have any exposure to derivative securities during the six-month period ended October 31, 2023?
A
No, the Fund’s portfolio had no exposure to derivative securities during the period.
Q
What were some notable aspects of the Fund’s positioning as of October 31, 2023?
A
We have continued to prefer investments in hospital-related issues, since the sector has historically had very low default rates. The revenue received by hospitals has remained diverse, coming from a combination of Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers, and self-payors. The Fund is also overweight to tobacco MSA bonds, due in part to the fact that the sector has never experienced a default. As mentioned previously, tobacco bond revenues have provided substantial funding for the advancement of public health and other similar programs to state and local governments that signed the tobacco MSA.

  In addition, the Fund is underweight to bonds issued by the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. The territory’s geographic position makes it vulnerable to hurricane risks, and the local economy’s dependence on tourism means Puerto Rico bonds are potentially more susceptible to a global economic slowdown than bonds of other issuers.  As noted earlier, the Fund is also underweight to state general obligation issues, which have tended to be sensitive to political considerations, as certain state governments may have lower flexibility to raise taxes due to constituents’ preferences, thus limiting their ability to increase revenues. Likewise, governing bodies may be less likely to make the necessary cuts to popular programs.
  As investment-grade municipal bond prices decreased throughout the six-month period, we increased the Fund’s exposure to that area of the market in an effort to capture what we saw as very attractive valuations. We funded the move by reducing the portfolio’s allocation to high-yield municipal bonds.
Q
What is your investment outlook?
A
We anticipate that the shifting interest-rate outlook will continue to impact near-term market performance, given the data-dependent nature of Fed policy. However, slowing consumer spending and decelerating activity in the housing market may indicate that the Fed is moving closer to the point at which it can conclude its monetary tightening cycle. If this turns out to be the case, we believe investors may turn their attention to the positive fundamental traits of the high-yield municipal market, including its low default rate and the continued decline in new-issue supply. We are also encouraged by the opportunities afforded by the compelling yields in the investment-grade municipal bond space.
  As is always the case, headline news events have had a minimal effect on our day-to-day approach to managing the portfolio. Our goal is to invest the Fund in what we believe are fundamentally sound credits with attractive yields, while maintaining an appropriate level of portfolio diversification***. We also seek to avoid experiencing defaults in the portfolio through our emphasis on fundamental research. We believe this steady, long-term

Please refer to the Schedule of Investments on pages 18  - 27  for a full listing of Fund securities.
All investments are subject to risk, including the possible loss of principal. In the past several years, financial markets have experienced increased volatility and heightened uncertainty. The market prices of securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political, or regulatory conditions, recessions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates, lack of liquidity in the bond markets, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues or adverse investor sentiment. These conditions may continue, recur, worsen or spread.
Investments in high-yield or lower-rated securities are subject to greater-than-average risk.
The Fund may invest in securities of issuers that are in default or that are in bankruptcy.
A portion of income may be subject to state, federal, and/or alternative minimum tax. Capital gains, if any, are subject to a capital gains tax.
When interest rates rise, the prices of debt securities held by the Fund will generally fall. Conversely, when interest rates fall the prices of debt securities held by the Fund generally will rise.
A general rise in interest rates could adversely affect the price and liquidity of fixed income securities.
The value of municipal securities can be adversely affected by changes in financial condition of municipal issuers, lower revenues, and regulatory and political developments. By concentrating in municipal securities, the Fund is more susceptible to adverse economic, political or regulatory developments than is a portfolio that invests more broadly.
Investments in the Fund are subject to possible loss due to the financial failure of the issuers of the underlying securities and the issuers’ inability to meet their debt obligations.
The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in illiquid securities. Illiquid securities may be difficult to dispose of at a price reflective of their value at the times when the Fund believes it is desirable to do so, and the market price of illiquid securities is generally more volatile than that of more liquid securities. Illiquid securities are also more difficult to value and investment of the Fund’s assets in illiquid securities may restrict the Fund’s ability to take advantage of market opportunities.

The Fund currently uses leverage through the issuance of preferred shares. Leverage creates significant risks, including the risk that the Fund’s incremental income or capital appreciation for investments purchased with the proceeds of leverage will not be sufficient to cover the cost of the leverage, which may adversely affect the return for the holders of common shares.
The Fund is required to maintain certain regulatory, rating agency and other asset coverage requirements in connection with its outstanding preferred shares. In order to maintain required asset coverage levels, the Fund may be required to alter the composition of its investment portfolio or take other actions, such as redeeming preferred shares with the proceeds from portfolio transactions, at what might be inopportune times in the market. Such actions could reduce the net earnings or returns to holders of the Fund’s common shares over time, which is likely to result in a decrease in the market value of the Fund’s shares.
These risks may increase share price volatility.

Call 1-800-710-0935 or visit www.amundi.com/us for the most recent month-end performance results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted.
Performance data shown represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and market price will fluctuate, and your shares may trade below NAV due to such factors as interest rate changes and the perceived credit quality of borrowers.
Total investment return does not reflect broker sales charges or commissions. All performance is for common shares of the Fund.
Shares of closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously offered. There is a one-time public offering and, once issued, shares of closed-end funds are bought and sold in the open market through a stock exchange and frequently trade at prices lower than their NAV. NAV per common share is total assets less total liabilities, which include preferred shares or borrowings, as applicable, divided by the number of common shares outstanding.
When NAV is lower than market price, dividends are assumed to be reinvested at the greater of NAV or 95% of the market price. When NAV is higher, dividends are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained through open-market purchases under the Fund’s dividend reinvestment plan.
The performance table and graph do not reflect the deduction of fees and taxes that a stockholder would pay on Fund distributions or the sale of Fund shares. Had these fees and taxes been reflected, performance would have been lower.
The Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged, broad measure of the municipal bond market. The Bloomberg U.S. Municipal High Yield Bond Index is unmanaged, totals over $26 billion in market value and maintains over 1,300 securities. Municipal bonds in this index have the following requirements: maturities of one year or greater, sub investment grade (below Baa or non-rated), fixed coupon rate, issued after 12/31/90, deal size over $20 million,

* The amount of distributions made to stockholder during the period were in excess of the net investment income earned by the Fund during the period. The Fund has accumulated undistributed net investment income which is part of the Fund’s NAV. A portion of the accumulated net investment income was distributed to stockholder during the period. A decrease in distributions may have a negative effect on the market value of the Fund's shares.

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) is organized as a Maryland corporation. Prior to April 21, 2021, the Fund was organized as a Delaware statutory trust. On April 21, 2021, the Fund redomiciled to a Maryland corporation through a statutory merger of the predecessor Delaware statutory trust with and into a newly-established Maryland corporation formed for the purpose of effecting the redomiciling. The Fund was originally organized on March 13, 2003. Prior to commencing operations on July 21, 2003, the Fund had no operations other than matters relating to its organization and registration as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The investment objective of the Fund is to seek a high level of current income exempt from regular federal income tax, and the Fund may, as a secondary objective, also seek capital appreciation to the extent that it is consistent with its primary investment objective.
Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Amundi and Amundi’s wholly owned subsidiary, Amundi USA, Inc., serves as the Fund’s investment adviser (the “Adviser”).
In March 2020, FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update, ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) — Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”), which provides optional, temporary relief with respect to the financial reporting of contracts subject to certain types of modifications due to the planned discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and other LIBOR-based reference rates at the end of 2021. The temporary relief provided by ASU 2020-04 is effective for certain reference rate-related contract modifications that occur during the period from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2023. Management is evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-04 on the Fund's investments, derivatives, debt and other contracts, if applicable, that will undergo reference rate-related modifications as a result of the reference rate reform.
The Fund is required to comply with Rule 18f-4 under the 1940 Act, which governs the use of derivatives by registered investment companies. Rule 18f-4 permits funds to enter into derivatives transactions (as defined in Rule 18f-4) and certain other transactions notwithstanding the restrictions on the issuance of “senior securities” under Section 18 of the 1940 Act. Rule 18f-4 requires a fund to establish and maintain a comprehensive derivatives risk management program, appoint a derivatives

risk manager and comply with a relative or absolute limit on fund leverage risk calculated based on value-at-risk (“VaR”), unless the fund uses derivatives in only a limited manner (a "limited derivatives user"). The Fund is currently a limited derivatives user for purposes of Rule 18f-4. 
The Fund is an investment company and follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). U.S. GAAP requires the management of the Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income, expenses and gain or loss on investments during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:
A.
Security Valuation
  The net asset value of the Fund is computed once daily, on each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open, as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE.
  Fixed-income securities are valued by using prices supplied by independent pricing services, which consider such factors as market prices, market events, quotations from one or more brokers, Treasury spreads, yields, maturities and ratings, or may use a pricing matrix or other fair value methods or techniques to provide an estimated value of the security or instrument. A pricing matrix is a means of valuing a debt security on the basis of current market prices for other debt securities, historical trading patterns in the market for fixed-income securities and/or other factors. Non-U.S. debt securities that are listed on an exchange will be valued at the bid price obtained from an independent third party pricing service. When independent third party pricing services are unable to supply prices, or when prices or market quotations are considered to be unreliable, the value of that security may be determined using quotations from one or more broker-dealers.
  Securities for which independent pricing services or broker-dealers are unable to supply prices or for which market prices and/or quotations are not readily available or are considered to be unreliable are valued by a fair valuation team comprised of certain personnel of the Adviser. The Adviser is designated as the valuation designee for the Fund pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. The Adviser’s fair valuation team is responsible for monitoring developments that may impact fair valued securities.
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. | 
Semiannual Report
 | 
10/31/23
35


  Inputs used when applying fair value methods to value a security may include credit ratings, the financial condition of the company, current market conditions and comparable securities. The Adviser may use fair value methods if it is determined that a significant event has occurred after the close of the exchange or market on which the security trades and prior to the determination of the Fund's net asset value. Examples of a significant event might include political or economic news, corporate restructurings, natural disasters, terrorist activity or trading halts. Thus, the valuation of the Fund's securities may differ significantly from exchange prices, and such differences could be material.
B.
Investment Income and Transactions
  Interest income, including interest on income-bearing cash accounts, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend and interest income are reported net of unrecoverable foreign taxes withheld at the applicable country rates and net of income accrued on defaulted securities.
  Discounts and premiums on purchase prices of debt securities are accreted or amortized, respectively, daily, into interest income on an effective yield to maturity basis with a corresponding increase or decrease in the cost basis of the security. Premiums and discounts related to certain mortgage-backed securities are amortized or accreted in proportion to the monthly paydowns.
  Interest and dividend income payable by delivery of additional shares is reclassified as PIK (payment-in-kind) income upon receipt and is included in interest and dividend income, respectively.
  Security transactions are recorded as of trade date. Gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated on the identified cost method for both financial reporting and federal income tax purposes.
  During the six months ended October 31, 2023, the Fund realized a loss of $223,759 due to an operational error. The Adviser voluntarily reimbursed the Fund for this loss, which is reflected on the Statement of Operations as Reimbursement by the Adviser.
C.
Federal Income Taxes
  It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net taxable income and net realized capital gains, if any, to its stockholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required. As of October 31, 2023, the Fund did not accrue any interest or penalties with respect to uncertain tax positions, which, if applicable,
36
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. | 
Semiannual Report
 | 
10/31/23


  would be recorded as an income tax expense on the Statement of Operations. Tax returns filed within the prior three years remain subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities.
  The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to stockholders are determined in accordance with federal income tax rules, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. Distributions in excess of net investment income or net realized gains are temporary over distributions for financial statement purposes resulting from differences in the recognition or classification of income or distributions for financial statement and tax purposes. Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character, but are not adjusted for temporary differences.
  The tax character of current year distributions payable will be determined at the end of the current taxable year. The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended April 30, 2023 was as follows:
 
2023
Distributions paid from:
 
Tax-exempt income $14,653,673
Ordinary income 239,797
Tax return of capital 1,482,217
Total
$16,375,687
The following shows the components of distributable earnings (losses) on a federal income tax basis at April 30, 2023:
 
2023
Distributable earnings/(losses):
 
Capital loss carryforward $
(43,042,067)
Other book/tax temporary differences (853,926)
Net unrealized depreciation (24,058,135)
Total
$(67,954,128)
The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized depreciation is primarily attributable to the tax adjustments relating to wash sales, the book/tax differences in the accrual of income on securities in default, and discounts on fixed income securities.
D.
Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan
  All stockholders whose shares are registered in their own names automatically participate in the Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”), under which participants receive all dividends and capital gain distributions (collectively, dividends) in full and fractional shares of the Fund in lieu of cash. Stockholders may elect not to participate in the Plan. Stockholders not participating in the Plan receive all dividends and
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. | 
Semiannual Report
 |

37


  capital gain distributions in cash. Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by notifying Equiniti Trust Company, the agent for stockholders in administering the Plan (the “Plan Agent”), in writing prior to any dividend record date; otherwise such termination or resumption will be effective with respect to any subsequently declared dividend or other distribution.
  If a stockholder’s shares are held in the name of a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, the stockholder can ask the firm or nominee to participate in the Plan on the stockholder’s behalf. If the firm or nominee does not offer the Plan, dividends will be paid in cash to the stockholder of record. A firm or nominee may reinvest a stockholder’s cash dividends in shares of the Fund on terms that differ from the terms of the Plan.
  Whenever the Fund declares a dividend on shares payable in cash, participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in shares acquired by the Plan Agent either (i) through receipt of additional unissued but authorized shares from the Fund or (ii) by purchase of outstanding shares on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere. If, on the payment date for any dividend, the net asset value per share is equal to or less than the market price per share plus estimated brokerage trading fees (market premium), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in newly issued shares. The number of newly issued shares to be credited to each account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend by the net asset value per share on the date the shares are issued, provided that the maximum discount from the then current market price per share on the date of issuance does not exceed 5%. If, on the payment date for any dividend, the net asset value per share is greater than the market value (market discount), the Plan Agent will invest the dividend amount in shares acquired in open-market purchases. There are no brokerage charges with respect to newly issued shares. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage trading fees incurred with respect to the Plan Agent’s open-market purchases. Participating in the Plan does not relieve stockholders from any federal, state or local taxes which may be due on dividends paid in any taxable year. Stockholders holding Plan shares in a brokerage account may be able to transfer the shares to another broker and continue to participate in the Plan.
 
E.
Risks
 
 
  The value of securities held by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real
38

 | 
10/31/23


  or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, recessions, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, inflation, changes in interest rates, armed conflict including Russia's military invasion of Ukraine, sanctions against Russia, other nations or individuals or companies and possible countermeasures, lack of liquidity in the bond markets or adverse investor sentiment. In the past several years, financial markets have experienced increased volatility, depressed valuations, decreased liquidity and heightened uncertainty. These conditions may continue, recur, worsen or spread. Inflation and interest rates have increased and may rise further. These circumstances could adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments and negatively impact the Fund's performance.
  The long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its subsequent variants on economies, markets, industries and individual issuers, are not known. Some sectors of the economy and individual issuers have experienced or may experience particularly large losses. Periods of extreme volatility in the financial markets, reduced liquidity of many instruments, increased government debt, inflation, and disruptions to supply chains, consumer demand and employee availability, may continue for some time. Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Russian securities lost all, or nearly all, their market value. Other securities or markets could be similarly affected by past or future political, geopolitical or other events or conditions.
  Governments and central banks, including the U.S. Federal Reserve, have taken extraordinary and unprecedented actions to support local and global economies and the financial markets. These actions have resulted in significant expansion of public debt, including in the U.S. The consequences of high public debt, including its future impact on the economy and securities markets, may not be known for some time.
  The U.S. and other countries are periodically involved in disputes over trade and other matters, which may result in tariffs, investment restrictions and adverse impacts on affected companies and securities. For example, the U.S. has imposed tariffs and other trade barriers on Chinese exports, has restricted sales of certain categories of goods to China, and has established barriers to investments in China. Trade disputes may adversely affect the economies of the U.S. and its trading partners, as well as companies directly or indirectly affected and financial markets generally. If the political climate between the U.S. and China does not improve or continues to deteriorate, if China were to attempt unification of Taiwan by force, or if other geopolitical conflicts develop or get worse, economies, markets and individual securities may

39


  be severely affected both regionally and globally, and the value of the Fund's assets may go down.
  At times, the Fund’s investments may represent industries or industry sectors that are interrelated or have common risks, making the Fund more susceptible to any economic, political, or regulatory developments or other risks affecting those industries and sectors.
  Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest substantially all of its assets in municipal securities. The municipal bond market can be susceptible to unusual volatility, particularly for lower-rated and unrated securities. Liquidity can be reduced unpredictably in response to overall economic conditions or credit tightening. Municipal issuers may be adversely affected by rising health care costs, increasing unfunded pension liabilities, and by the phasing out of federal programs providing financial support. Unfavorable conditions and developments relating to projects financed with municipal securities can result in lower revenues to issuers of municipal securities, potentially resulting in defaults. Issuers often depend on revenues from these projects to make principal and interest payments. The value of municipal securities can also be adversely affected by changes in the financial condition of one or more individual municipal issuers or insurers of municipal issuers, regulatory and political developments, tax law changes or other legislative actions, and by uncertainties and public perceptions concerning these and other factors. Municipal securities may be more susceptible to down-grades or defaults during recessions or similar periods of economic stress. Financial difficulties of municipal issuers may continue or get worse, particularly in the event of economic or market turmoil or a recession. To the extent the Fund invests significantly in a single state (including California and Massachusetts), city, territory (including Puerto Rico), or region, or in securities the payments on which are dependent upon a single project or source of revenues, or that relate to a sector or industry, including health care facilities, education, transportation, special revenues and pollution control, the Fund will be more susceptible to associated risks and developments.
  The Fund invests in below investment grade (high yield) municipal securities. Debt securities rated below investment grade are commonly referred to as “junk bonds” and are considered speculative with respect to the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal. These securities involve greater risk of loss, are subject to greater price volatility, and may be less liquid and more difficult to value, especially during periods of economic uncertainty or change, than higher rated debt securities.

  The market prices of the Fund's fixed income securities may fluctuate significantly when interest rates change. The value of your investment will generally go down when interest rates rise. A rise in rates tends to have a greater impact on the prices of longer term or duration securities. For example, if interest rates increase by 1%, the value of a Fund's portfolio with a portfolio duration of ten years would be expected to decrease by 10%, all other things being equal. In recent years interest rates and credit spreads in the U.S. have been at historic lows. The U.S. Federal Reserve has raised certain interest rates, and interest rates may continue to go up. A general rise in interest rates could adversely affect the price and liquidity of fixed income securities. The maturity of a security may be significantly longer than its effective duration. A security's maturity and other features may be more relevant than its effective duration in determining the security's sensitivity to other factors affecting the issuer or markets generally, such as changes in credit quality or in the yield premium that the market may establish for certain types of securities (sometimes called "credit spread"). In general, the longer its maturity the more a security may be susceptible to these factors. When the credit spread for a fixed income security goes up, or "widens," the value of the security will generally go down. 
  If an issuer or guarantor of a security held by the Fund or a counterparty to a financial contract with the Fund defaults on its obligation to pay principal and/or interest, has its credit rating downgraded or is perceived to be less creditworthy, or the credit quality or value of any underlying assets declines, the value of your investment will typically decline. Changes in actual or perceived creditworthiness may occur quickly. The Fund could be delayed or hindered in its enforcement of rights against an issuer, guarantor or counterparty.
  With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet to conduct business, the Fund is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. While the Fund’s Adviser has established business continuity plans in the event of, and risk management systems to prevent, limit or mitigate, such cyber-attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems, including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Fund cannot control the cybersecurity plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Fund such as the Fund's custodian and accounting agent, and the Fund’s transfer agent. In addition, many beneficial owners of Fund shares hold them through accounts at broker-dealers, retirement platforms and other financial market participants over which neither the Fund nor the Adviser exercises control. Each of these may in turn rely on service providers to them, which are also subject to the risk

  of cyber-attacks. Cybersecurity failures or breaches at the Adviser or the Fund’s service providers or intermediaries have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with the Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Fund stockholders to effect share purchases or sales or receive distributions, loss of or unauthorized access to private stockholder information and violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, or additional compliance costs. Such costs and losses may not be covered under any insurance. In addition, maintaining vigilance against cyber-attacks may involve substantial costs over time, and system enhancements may themselves be subject to cyber-attacks.
 
F.
Statement of Cash Flows
 
 
  Information on financial transactions which have been settled through the receipt or disbursement of cash or restricted cash is presented in the Statement of Cash Flows. Cash as presented in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities includes cash on hand at the Fund's custodian bank and does not include any short-term investments. As of and for the six months ended October 31, 2023, the Fund had no restricted cash presented on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
2. Management Agreement
The Adviser manages the Fund’s portfolio. Management fees payable under the Fund’s Investment Management Agreement with the Adviser are calculated daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.60% of the Fund’s average daily managed assets. “Managed assets” means (a) the total assets of the Fund, including any form of investment leverage, minus (b) all accrued liabilities incurred in the normal course of operations, which shall not include any liabilities or obligations attributable to investment leverage obtained through (i) indebtedness of any type (including, without limitation, borrowing through a credit facility or the issuance of debt securities), (ii) the issuance of preferred stock or other similar preference securities, and/or (iii) any other means. For the six months ended October 31, 2023, the management fee was 0.60% (annualized) of the Fund’s average daily managed assets, which was equivalent to 0.95% (annualized) of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
In addition, under the management and administration agreements, certain other services and costs, including accounting, regulatory reporting and insurance premiums, are paid by the Fund as administrative reimbursements. Reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities is $24,974 in management fees payable to the Adviser at October 31, 2023.

3. Compensation of Officers and Directors
The Fund pays an annual fee to its Directors. The Adviser reimburses the Fund for fees paid to the Interested Directors. Except for the chief compliance officer, the Fund does not pay any salary or other compensation to its officers. The Fund pays a portion of the chief compliance officer's compensation for his services as the Fund's chief compliance officer. Amundi US pays the remaining portion of the chief compliance officer's compensation. For the six months ended October 31, 2023, the Fund paid $8,420 in Officers' and Directors' compensation, which is reflected on the Statement of Operations as Officers' and Directors' fees. At October 31, 2023, on its Statement of Assets and Liabilities, the Fund had a payable for Directors' fees of $1,152 and a payable for administrative expenses of $22,188, which includes the payable for Officers' compensation.
4. Transfer Agent
Equiniti Trust Company, LLC ("EQ"), formerly known as American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, serves as the transfer agent with respect to the Fund’s common shares. The Fund pays EQ an annual fee as is agreed to from time to time by the Fund and EQ for providing such services.
In addition, the Fund reimbursed the transfer agent for out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the transfer agent related to stockholder communications activities such as proxy and statement mailings and outgoing phone calls. 
5. Fund Shares
There are 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock of the Fund (“common shares”), $0.001 par value per share authorized.
Transactions in common shares for the six months ended October 31, 2023 and year ended April 30, 2023 were as follows:
 
10/31/23
4/30/23
Shares outstanding at beginning of period 22,771,349 22,771,349
Shares outstanding at end of period

The Fund may classify or reclassify any unissued shares into one or more series of preferred shares.
As of October 31, 2023, the Fund has outstanding 1,135 Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares Series 2021 (“Series 2021 VMTP Shares or “VMTP Shares”). The Fund issued 1,250 VMTP Shares on February 9, 2018 and 200 VMTP Shares on February 16, 2021. The Fund redeemed 160 VMTP

Shares on November 14, 2022 and 155 VMTP Shares on October 18, 2023. See Note 6 for additional information.
6. Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares
The Fund has 1,135 shares issued and outstanding of Series 2021 VMTP Shares, with a liquidation preference of $100,000 per share. VMTP Shares are issued via private placement and are not publicly available.
The Fund is obligated to redeem its VMTP Shares by the date as specified in its offering document (“Term Redemption Date”), unless earlier redeemed by the Fund. VMTP Shares are subject to optional and mandatory redemption in certain circumstances. The VMTP Shares may be redeemed at the option of the Fund, subject to payment of premium for approximately one year following the date of issuance (“Optional Redemption Date”), and at the redemption price per share thereafter. The redemption price per share is equal to the sum of the liquidation preference per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends. The Fund may be obligated to redeem a certain amount of the VMTP Shares if it fails to maintain certain asset coverage and leverage ratio requirements and such failures are not cured by the applicable cure date. The Term Redemption Date for the Fund’s Series 2021 VMTP Shares is August 2, 2024. Six months prior to Term Redemption Date, the Fund is required to segregate liquid assets with the Fund's custodian in an amount equal to at least 110% of the term redemption amount.
VMTP Shares are subject to restrictions on transfer, generally do not trade, and market quotations are generally not available. VMTP Shares are short-term or short/intermediate-term instruments that pay a variable dividend rate tied to a short-term index, plus an additional fixed “spread” amount established at the time of issuance. For financial reporting purposes, the liquidation preference of VMTP Shares is a liability and is recognized as a component of “Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities since the shares have a stated mandatory redemption date.
Dividends on the VMTP Shares (which are treated as interest payments for financial reporting purposes and are recorded as interest expense on the Statement of Operations) are declared daily, paid monthly and recorded as incurred. For the six months ended October 31, 2023, interest expense on VMTP Shares amounted to $3,632,400. The dividend rate for the VMTP Shares is determined weekly. Unpaid dividends on VMTP Shares are recognized as “Interest Expense Payable” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For the six months ended October 31, 2023, there was no interest expense payable on VMTP Shares. From May 1, 2023 through October 31, 2023, the Series 2021 VMTP Shares paid an average dividend rate of 5.58%

and the average liquidation value outstanding of VMTP Shares for the Fund during the six months ended October 31, 2023, was $127,315,217.
The Fund did not incur any offering costs as a result of the offerings on February 9, 2018 and February 16, 2021.

* Elected by holders of shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock voting together as a single class.
Each of Ms. Durnin, Dr. Friedman and Mr. Taubes received a majority of all of the votes entitled to be cast with respect to his or her election by the stockholders of the Fund, and was elected as a Director of the Fund. 
In addition to Ms. Durnin, Dr. Friedman and Mr. Taubes, the other Directors of the Fund at the time of the Annual Meeting, John E. Baumgardner, Jr., Lisa M. Jones, Craig C. MacKay, Lorraine H. Monchak, Thomas J. Perna, Marguerite A. Piret and Fred J. Ricciardi, continue to serve as Directors of the Fund.
Anti-takeover provisions.
The Fund's Charter and Bylaws include provisions that are designed to limit the ability of other entities or persons to acquire control of the Fund for short-term objectives, including by converting the Fund to open-end status or changing the composition of the Board, that may be detrimental to the Fund's ability to achieve its primary investment objective of seeking to provide its common stockholders with a high level of current income. These provisions include staggered terms of service for the Directors, advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals, and super-majority voting requirements for certain transactions with affiliates, open-ending the Fund or a merger, liquidation, asset sale or similar transaction. The Fund's Bylaws also contain a provision providing that the Board of Directors has adopted a resolution to opt in the Fund to the provisions of the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act ("MCSAA"). Such provisions may limit the ability of stockholders to sell their shares at a

premium over prevailing market prices by discouraging a third party from seeking to obtain control of the Fund. There can be no assurance, however, that such provisions will be sufficient to deter activist investors that seek to cause the Fund to take actions that may not be aligned with the interests of long-term stockholders. Furthermore, the law is uncertain on the use of control share provisions. Certain courts have found that control share provisions in the by-laws of closed-end funds are inconsistent with the 1940 Act. It is possible that a court could decide that the Fund's decision to opt in to the MCSAA is inconsistent with the 1940 Act.
Exclusive forum provisions. The Fund's Bylaws designate the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by the Fund's stockholders and provide that claims relating to causes of action under the United States federal securities laws may only be brought in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Northern Division, which could limit stockholders' ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with the Fund or its directors, officers or the Fund's agents, if any, and could discourage lawsuits against the Fund and its directors, officers and agents, if any.
The Fund's Bylaws provide that, unless the Fund consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Northern Division, will be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any Internal Corporate Claim, as such term is defined in the MGCL, (b) any derivative action or proceeding brought on the Fund's behalf (other than actions arising under federal securities laws), (c) any action asserting a claim of breach of any duty owed by any of the Fund's directors, officers or other agents to the Fund or to the Fund's stockholders, (d) any action asserting a claim against the Fund or any of the Fund's directors, officers or other agents arising pursuant to any provision of the MGCL or the Fund's Charter or Bylaws or (e) any other action asserting a claim against the Fund or any of the Fund's directors, officers or other agents that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine. Furthermore, the Fund's Bylaws provide that, unless the Fund consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, Northern Division shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any claim arising under the United States federal securities laws.
These exclusive forum provisions may limit the ability of the Fund's stockholders to bring a claim in a judicial forum that such stockholders find favorable for disputes with the Fund or the Fund's directors, officers, or agents, if any, which may discourage such lawsuits against the Fund and

the Fund's directors, officers, and agents, if any. Alternatively, if a court were to find the choice of forum provisions contained in the Fund's Bylaws to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, the Fund may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could materially adversely affect the Fund's business, financial condition, and operating results.

Approval of Renewal of Investment Management Agreement
Amundi Asset Management US, Inc. (“Amundi US”) serves as the investment adviser to Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) pursuant to an investment management agreement between Amundi US and the Fund. In order for Amundi US to remain the investment adviser of the Fund, the Directors of the Fund, including a majority of the Fund’s Independent Directors, must determine annually whether to renew the investment management agreement for the Fund.
The contract review process began in January 2023 as the Directors of the Fund agreed on, among other things, an overall approach and timeline for the process. Contract review materials were provided to the Directors in March 2023, July 2023 and September 2023. In addition, the Directors reviewed and discussed the Fund’s performance at regularly scheduled meetings throughout the year, and took into account other information related to the Fund provided to the Directors at regularly scheduled meetings, in connection with the review of the Fund’s investment management agreement.
In March 2023, the Directors, among other things, discussed the memorandum provided by Fund counsel that summarized the legal standards and other considerations that are relevant to the Directors in their deliberations regarding the renewal of the investment management agreement, and reviewed and discussed the qualifications of the investment management teams for the Fund, as well as the level of investment by the Fund’s portfolio managers in the Fund. In July 2023, the Directors, among other things, reviewed the Fund’s management fees and total expense ratios, the financial statements of Amundi US and its parent companies, profitability analyses provided by Amundi US, and analyses from Amundi US as to possible economies of scale. The Directors also reviewed the profitability of the institutional business of Amundi US as compared to that of Amundi US’s fund management business, and considered the differences between the fees and expenses of the Fund and the fees and expenses of Amundi US’s institutional accounts, as well as the different services provided by Amundi US to the Fund and to the institutional accounts. The Directors further considered contract review materials, including additional materials received in response to the Directors’ request, in September 2023. 
At a meeting held on September 19, 2023, based on their evaluation of the information provided by Amundi US and third parties, the Directors of the Fund, including the Independent Directors voting separately advised by independent counsel, unanimously approved the renewal of the investment
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. | 
Semiannual Report
 |

49


management agreement for another year. In approving the renewal of the investment management agreement, the Directors considered various factors that they determined were relevant, including the factors described below. The Directors did not identify any single factor as the controlling factor in determining to approve the renewal of the agreement.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. 
The Directors considered the nature, extent and quality of the services that had been provided by Amundi US to the Fund, taking into account the investment objective and strategy of the Fund. The Directors also reviewed Amundi US’s investment approach for the Fund and its research process. The Directors considered the resources of Amundi US and the personnel of Amundi US who provide investment management services to the Fund. They also reviewed the amount of non-Fund assets managed by the portfolio managers of the Fund. They considered the non-investment resources and personnel of Amundi US that are involved in Amundi US’s services to the Fund, including Amundi US’s compliance, risk management, and legal resources and personnel. The Directors considered the compliance services being provided to the Fund by Amundi US and how Amundi US has addressed any compliance issues during the past year. The Directors noted the substantial attention and high priority given by Amundi US’s senior management to the Pioneer Fund complex, including with respect to the increasing regulation to which the Pioneer Funds are subject. 
The Directors considered that Amundi US supervises and monitors the performance of the Fund’s service providers and provides the Fund with personnel (including Fund officers) and other resources that are necessary for the Fund’s business management and operations. The Directors also considered that, as administrator, Amundi US is responsible for the administration of the Fund’s business and other affairs. The Directors considered that the Fund reimburses Amundi US its pro rata share of Amundi US’s costs of providing administration services to the Pioneer Funds.
Based on these considerations, the Directors concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services that had been provided by Amundi US to the Fund were satisfactory and consistent with the terms of the investment management agreement.
Performance of the Fund. 
In considering the Fund’s performance, the Directors regularly review and discuss throughout the year data prepared by Amundi US and information comparing the Fund’s performance with the performance of its peer group of funds, as classified by Morningstar, Inc. (Morningstar), and with the
50
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. | 
Semiannual Report
 | 
10/31/23


performance of the Fund’s benchmark index. The Directors also regularly consider the Fund’s returns at market value relative to its peers, as well as the discount at which the Fund’s shares may trade on the New York Stock Exchange compared to its net asset value per share. They also discuss the Fund’s performance with Amundi US on a regular basis. The Directors’ regular reviews and discussions were factored into the Directors’ deliberations concerning the renewal of the investment management agreement.
Management Fee and Expenses. 
The Directors considered information showing the fees and expenses of the Fund in comparison to the management fees and expense ratios of a peer group of funds selected on the basis of criteria determined by the Independent Directors for this purpose using data provided by Strategic Insight Mutual Fund Research and Consulting, LLC (Strategic Insight), an independent third party. The peer group comparisons referred to below are organized in quintiles. Each quintile represents one-fifth of the peer group.  In all peer group comparisons referred to below, first quintile is most favorable to the Fund’s stockholders.
The Directors considered that the Fund’s management fee (based on managed assets) for the most recent fiscal year was in the second quintile relative to the management fees paid by other funds in its Strategic Insight peer group for the comparable period. The Directors considered that the expense ratio (based on managed assets) of the Fund’s common shares for the most recent fiscal year was in the first  quintile (including investment-related expenses) and in the third quintile (excluding investment-related expenses), in each case relative to its Strategic Insight peer group for the comparable period.   
The Directors reviewed management fees charged by Amundi US to institutional and other clients, including publicly offered European funds sponsored by Amundi US’s affiliates, unaffiliated U.S. registered investment companies (in a sub-advisory capacity), and unaffiliated foreign and domestic separate accounts. The Directors also considered Amundi US’s costs in providing services to the Fund and Amundi US’s costs in providing services to the other clients and considered the differences in management fees and profit margins for fund and non-fund services. In evaluating the fees associated with Amundi US’s client accounts, the Directors took into account the respective demands, resources and complexity associated with the Fund and other client accounts. The Directors noted that, in some instances, the fee rates for those clients were lower than the management fee for the Fund and considered that, under the investment management and administration agreements with the Fund,
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. | 
Semiannual Report
 | 
10/31/23
51


Amundi US performs additional services for the Fund that it does not provide to those other clients or services that are broader in scope, including oversight of the Fund’s other service providers and activities related to compliance and the extensive regulatory and tax regimes to which the Fund is subject. The Directors also considered the entrepreneurial risks associated with Amundi US’s management of the Fund.
The Directors concluded that the management fee payable by the Fund to Amundi US was reasonable in relation to the nature and quality of the services provided by Amundi US. 
Profitability. 
The Directors considered information provided by Amundi US regarding the profitability of Amundi US with respect to the advisory services provided by Amundi US to the Fund, including the methodology used by Amundi US in allocating certain of its costs to the management of the Fund. The Directors also considered Amundi US’s profit margin in connection with the overall operation of the Fund. They further reviewed the financial results, including the profit margins, realized by Amundi US from non-fund businesses. The Directors considered Amundi US’s profit margins in comparison to the limited industry data available and noted that the profitability of any adviser was affected by numerous factors, including its organizational structure and method for allocating expenses. The Directors concluded that Amundi US’s profitability with respect to the management of the Fund was not unreasonable.
Economies of Scale. 
The Directors considered the extent to which Amundi US may realize economies of scale or other efficiencies in managing and supporting the Fund. Since the Fund is a closed-end fund that has not raised additional capital, the Directors concluded that economies of scale were not a relevant consideration in the renewal of the investment advisory agreement.
Other Benefits. 
The Directors considered the other benefits that Amundi US enjoys from its relationship with the Fund. The Directors considered the character and amount of fees paid or to be paid by the Fund, other than under the investment management agreement, for services provided by Amundi US and its affiliates. The Directors further considered the revenues and profitability of Amundi US’s businesses other than the Fund business. To the extent applicable, the Directors also considered the benefits to the Fund and to Amundi US and its affiliates from the use of “soft” commission dollars generated by the Fund to pay for research and brokerage services.
52
Pioneer Municipal High Income Fund, Inc. |

 | 
10/31/23


The Directors considered that Amundi US is the principal U.S. asset management business of Amundi, which is one of the largest asset managers globally.  Amundi’s worldwide asset management business manages over $2.1 trillion in assets (including the Pioneer Funds). The Directors considered that Amundi US’s relationship with Amundi creates potential opportunities for Amundi US and Amundi that derive from Amundi US’s relationships with the Fund, including Amundi’s ability to market the services of Amundi US globally.  The Directors noted that Amundi US has access to additional research and portfolio management capabilities as a result of its relationship with Amundi and Amundi’s enhanced global presence that may contribute to an increase in the resources available to Amundi US. The Directors considered that Amundi US and the Fund receive reciprocal intangible benefits from the relationship, including mutual brand recognition and, for the Fund, direct and indirect access to the resources of a large global asset manager. The Directors concluded that any such benefits received by Amundi US as a result of its relationship with the Fund were reasonable.
Conclusion.
After consideration of the factors described above as well as other factors, the Directors, including the Independent Directors, concluded that the investment management agreement for the Fund, including the fees payable thereunder, was fair and reasonable and voted to approve the proposed renewal of the investment management agreement.

PIONEER FUNDS

APPROVAL OF AUDIT, AUDIT-RELATED, TAX AND OTHER SERVICES

PROVIDED BY THE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR

SECTION I - POLICY PURPOSE AND APPLICABILITY

The Pioneer Funds recognize the importance of maintaining the independence of their outside auditors. Maintaining independence is a shared responsibility involving Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., the audit committee and the independent auditors.

The Funds recognize that a Fund’s independent auditors: 1) possess knowledge of the Funds, 2) are able to incorporate certain services into the scope of the audit, thereby avoiding redundant work, cost and disruption of Fund personnel and processes, and 3) have expertise that has value to the Funds. As a result, there are situations where it is desirable to use the Fund’s independent auditors for services in addition to the annual audit and where the potential for conflicts of interests are minimal. Consequently, this policy, which is intended to comply with Rule 210.2-01(C)(7), sets forth guidelines and procedures to be followed by the Funds when retaining the independent audit firm to perform audit, audit-related tax and other services under those circumstances, while also maintaining independence.


Approval of a service in accordance with this policy for a Fund shall also constitute approval for any other Fund whose pre-approval is required pursuant to Rule 210.2-01(c)(7)(ii).

In addition to the procedures set forth in this policy, any non-audit services that may be provided consistently with Rule 210.2-01 may be approved by the Audit Committee itself and any pre-approval that may be waived in accordance with Rule 210.2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) is hereby waived.

Selection of a Fund’s independent auditors and their compensation shall be determined by the Audit Committee and shall not be subject to this policy.

CODE OF ETHICS

FOR

SENIOR OFFICERS

POLICY

This Code of Ethics for Senior Officers (this “Code”) sets forth the policies, practices and values expected to be exhibited by Senior Officers of the Pioneer Funds (collectively, the “Funds” and each, a “Fund”). This Code does not apply generally to officers and employees of service providers to the Funds, including Amundi Asset Management US, Inc., and Amundi Distributor US, Inc. (collectively, “Amundi US”), unless such officers and employees are also Senior Officers.

The term “Senior Officers” shall mean the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller of the Funds, although one person may occupy more than one such office. Each Senior Officer is identified by title in Exhibit A to this Code.

The Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) of the Pioneer Funds is primarily responsible for implementing and monitoring compliance with this Code, subject to the overall supervision of the Board of Directors of the Funds (the “Board”). The CCO has the authority to interpret this Code and its applicability to particular situations. Any questions about this Code should be directed to the CCO or his or her designee.

PURPOSE

The purposes of this Code are to:

 

   

Promote honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

 

   

Promote full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Fund files with, or submits to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in other public communications made by the Fund;

 

     1    Last revised January 2021


   

Promote compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;

 

   

Promote the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and

 

   

Establish accountability for adherence to the Code.

Each Senior Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as apparent conflicts of interest.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF SENIOR OFFICERS

Conflicts of Interest

A “conflict of interest” occurs when a Senior Officer’s private interests interfere in any way – or even appear to interfere – with the interests of or his/her service to a Fund. A conflict can arise when a Senior Officer takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her Fund work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest also arise when a Senior Officer or a member of his/her family receives improper personal benefits as a result of the Senior Officer’s position with the Fund.

Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between Senior Officers and the Fund and already are subject to conflict of interest provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “ICA”), and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “IAA”). For example, Senior Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with the Funds because of their status as “affiliated persons” of the Funds. The Fund’s and Amundi US’ compliance programs and procedures are designed to prevent, or identify and correct, violations of these provisions. This Code does not, and is not intended to, repeat or replace such policies and procedures, and such conflicts fall outside of the parameters of this Code.

Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal benefit, conflicts arise as a result of the contractual relationship between the Fund and Amundi US because the Senior Officers are officers or employees of both. As a result, this Code recognizes that Senior Officers will, in the normal course of their duties (whether formally for a Fund or for Amundi US, or for both), be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that will have different effects on Amundi US and the Fund. The participation of Senior Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual relationship between a Fund and Amundi US and is consistent with the performance by the Senior Officers of their duties as officers of the Fund and, if addressed in conformity with the provisions of the ICA and the IAA, will be deemed to have been handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Board that Senior Officers may also be officers of investment companies other than the Pioneer Funds.

Other conflicts of interest are covered by this Code, even if such conflicts of interest are not subject to provisions of the ICA or the IAA. In reading the following examples of conflicts of interest under this Code, Senior Officers should keep in mind that such a list cannot ever be exhaustive or cover every possible scenario. It follows that the overarching principle is that the personal interest of a Senior Officer should not be placed improperly before the interest of a Fund.

 

     2    Last revised January 2021


Each Senior Officer must:

 

   

Not use his or her personal influence or personal relationships improperly to influence investment decisions or financial reporting by a Fund whereby the Senior Officer would benefit personally to the detriment of the Fund;

 

   

Not cause a Fund to take action, or fail to take action, for the individual personal benefit of the Senior Officer rather than the benefit of the Fund; and

 

   

Report at least annually any affiliations or other relationships that give rise to conflicts of interest.

Any material conflict of interest situation should be approved by the CCO, his or her designee or the Board. Examples of these include:

 

   

Service as a director on the board of any public or private company;

 

   

The receipt of any gift with a value in excess of an amount established from time to time by Amundi US’ Business Gift and Entertainment Policy from any single non-relative person or entity. Customary business lunches, dinners and entertainment at which both the Senior Officer and the giver are present, and promotional items of insignificant value are exempt from this prohibition;

 

   

The receipt of any entertainment from any company with which a Fund has current or prospective business dealings unless such entertainment is business-related, reasonable in cost, appropriate as to time and place, and not so frequent as to raise any question of impropriety;

 

   

Any ownership interest in, or any consulting or employment relationship with, any of a Fund’s service providers other than its investment adviser, principal underwriter, administrator or any affiliated person thereof; and

 

   

A direct or indirect financial interest in commissions, transaction charges or spreads paid by a Fund for effecting portfolio transactions or for selling or redeeming shares other than an interest arising from the Senior Officer’s employment, such as compensation or equity ownership.

Corporate Opportunities

Senior Officers may not (a) take for themselves personally opportunities that are discovered through the use of a Fund’s property, information or position; (b) use a Fund’s property, information, or position for personal gain; or (c) compete with a Fund. Senior Officers owe a duty to the Funds to advance their legitimate interests when the opportunity to do so arises.

Confidentiality

Senior Officers should maintain the confidentiality of information entrusted to them by the Funds, except when disclosure is authorized or legally mandated. Confidential information includes all non-public information that might be of use to competitors, or harmful to the Funds, if disclosed.

Fair dealing with Fund shareholders, suppliers, and competitors

Senior Officers should endeavor to deal fairly with the Funds’ shareholders, suppliers, and competitors. Senior Officers should not take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, misrepresentation of material facts, or any other unfair-dealing practice. Senior Officers should not knowingly misrepresent or cause others to misrepresent facts about a Fund to others, whether within or outside the Fund, including to the Board, the Funds’ auditors or to governmental regulators and self-regulatory organizations.

Compliance with Law

Each Senior Officer must not knowingly violate any law, rule and regulation applicable to his or her activities as an officer of the Funds. In addition, Senior Officers are responsible for understanding and promoting compliance with the laws, rules and regulations applicable to his or her particular position and by persons under the Senior Officer’s supervision. Senior Officers should endeavor to comply not only with the letter of the law, but also with the spirit of the law.

Disclosure

Each Senior Officer should familiarize himself or herself with the disclosure requirements generally applicable to the Funds. Each Senior Officer should, to the extent appropriate within his or her area of responsibility, consult with other officers of the Funds and Amundi US with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents a Fund files with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Funds.

INITIAL AND ANNUAL CERTIFICATIONS

Upon becoming a Senior Officer the Senior Officer is required to certify that he or she has received, read, and understands this Code. On an annual basis, each Senior Officer must certify that he or she has complied with all of the applicable requirements of this Code.

ADMINISTRATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE CODE

Report of Violations

Amundi US relies on each Senior Officer to report promptly if he or she knows of any conduct by a Senior Officer in violation of this Code. All violations or suspected violations of this Code must be reported to the CCO or a member of Amundi US’ Legal and Compliance Department. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code.

 

     4    Last revised January 2021


Investigation of Violations

Upon notification of a violation or suspected violation, the CCO or other members of Amundi US’ Compliance Department will take all appropriate action to investigate the potential violation reported. If, after such investigation, the CCO believes that no violation has occurred, the CCO and Compliance Department is not required to take no further action. Any matter the CCO believes is a violation will be reported to the Independent Directors. If the Independent Directors concur that a violation has occurred, they will inform and make a recommendation to the full Board. The Board shall be responsible for determining appropriate action. The Funds, their officers and employees, will not retaliate against any Senior Officer for reports of potential violations that are made in good faith and without malicious intent.

The CCO or his or her designee is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret this Code in any particular situation. The CCO or his or her designee shall make inquiries regarding any potential conflict of interest.

Violations and Sanctions

Compliance with this Code is expected and violations of its provisions will be taken seriously and could result in disciplinary action. In response to violations of the Code, the Board may impose such sanctions as it deems appropriate within the scope of its authority over Senior Officers, including termination as an officer of the Funds.

Waivers from the Code

The Independent Directors will consider any approval or waiver sought by any Senior Officer.

The Independent Directors will be responsible for granting waivers, as appropriate. Any change to or waiver of this Code will, to the extent required, be disclosed as provided by SEC rules.

OTHER POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

This Code shall be the sole Code of Ethics adopted by the Funds for purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. The Funds’ and Amundi US’ Codes of Ethics under Rule 17j-1 under the ICA and Rule 204A-1 of the IAA are separate requirements applying to the Senior Officers and others, and are not a part of this Code. To the extent any other policies and procedures of the Funds or Amundi US overlap or conflict with the provisions of the Code, they are superseded by this Code.

SCOPE OF RESPONSIBILITIES

A Senior Officer’s responsibilities under this Code are limited to Fund matters over which the Senior Officer has direct responsibility or control, matters in which the Senior Officer routinely participates, and matters with which the Senior Officer is otherwise involved. In addition, a Senior Officer is responsible for matters of which the Senior Officer has actual knowledge.

 

     5    Last revised January 2021


AMENDMENTS

This Code other than Exhibit A may not be amended except in a writing that is specifically approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors.

CONFIDENTIALITY

All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code will be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly. Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be disclosed to anyone other than the Board and their counsel, or to Amundi US’ Legal and Compliance Department.

INTERNAL USE

This Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Funds and does not constitute an admission, by or on behalf of any Fund, as to any fact, circumstance, or legal conclusion.

General Description of Registrant [Abstract]    
Investment Objectives and Practices [Text Block] The investment objective of the Fund is to seek a high level of current income exempt from regular federal income tax, and the Fund may, as a secondary objective, also seek capital appreciation to the extent that it is consistent with its primary investment objective.  
Risk Factors [Table Text Block]
E.
Risks
 
 
  The value of securities held by the Fund may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real
  or perceived adverse economic, political or regulatory conditions, recessions, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, inflation, changes in interest rates, armed conflict including Russia's military invasion of Ukraine, sanctions against Russia, other nations or individuals or companies and possible countermeasures, lack of liquidity in the bond markets or adverse investor sentiment. In the past several years, financial markets have experienced increased volatility, depressed valuations, decreased liquidity and heightened uncertainty. These conditions may continue, recur, worsen or spread. Inflation and interest rates have increased and may rise further. These circumstances could adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments and negatively impact the Fund's performance.
  The long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its subsequent variants on economies, markets, industries and individual issuers, are not known. Some sectors of the economy and individual issuers have experienced or may experience particularly large losses. Periods of extreme volatility in the financial markets, reduced liquidity of many instruments, increased government debt, inflation, and disruptions to supply chains, consumer demand and employee availability, may continue for some time. Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Russian securities lost all, or nearly all, their market value. Other securities or markets could be similarly affected by past or future political, geopolitical or other events or conditions.
  Governments and central banks, including the U.S. Federal Reserve, have taken extraordinary and unprecedented actions to support local and global economies and the financial markets. These actions have resulted in significant expansion of public debt, including in the U.S. The consequences of high public debt, including its future impact on the economy and securities markets, may not be known for some time.
  The U.S. and other countries are periodically involved in disputes over trade and other matters, which may result in tariffs, investment restrictions and adverse impacts on affected companies and securities. For example, the U.S. has imposed tariffs and other trade barriers on Chinese exports, has restricted sales of certain categories of goods to China, and has established barriers to investments in China. Trade disputes may adversely affect the economies of the U.S. and its trading partners, as well as companies directly or indirectly affected and financial markets generally. If the political climate between the U.S. and China does not improve or continues to deteriorate, if China were to attempt unification of Taiwan by force, or if other geopolitical conflicts develop or get worse, economies, markets and individual securities may
  be severely affected both regionally and globally, and the value of the Fund's assets may go down.
  At times, the Fund’s investments may represent industries or industry sectors that are interrelated or have common risks, making the Fund more susceptible to any economic, political, or regulatory developments or other risks affecting those industries and sectors.
  Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest substantially all of its assets in municipal securities. The municipal bond market can be susceptible to unusual volatility, particularly for lower-rated and unrated securities. Liquidity can be reduced unpredictably in response to overall economic conditions or credit tightening. Municipal issuers may be adversely affected by rising health care costs, increasing unfunded pension liabilities, and by the phasing out of federal programs providing financial support. Unfavorable conditions and developments relating to projects financed with municipal securities can result in lower revenues to issuers of municipal securities, potentially resulting in defaults. Issuers often depend on revenues from these projects to make principal and interest payments. The value of municipal securities can also be adversely affected by changes in the financial condition of one or more individual municipal issuers or insurers of municipal issuers, regulatory and political developments, tax law changes or other legislative actions, and by uncertainties and public perceptions concerning these and other factors. Municipal securities may be more susceptible to down-grades or defaults during recessions or similar periods of economic stress. Financial difficulties of municipal issuers may continue or get worse, particularly in the event of economic or market turmoil or a recession. To the extent the Fund invests significantly in a single state (including California and Massachusetts), city, territory (including Puerto Rico), or region, or in securities the payments on which are dependent upon a single project or source of revenues, or that relate to a sector or industry, including health care facilities, education, transportation, special revenues and pollution control, the Fund will be more susceptible to associated risks and developments.
  The Fund invests in below investment grade (high yield) municipal securities. Debt securities rated below investment grade are commonly referred to as “junk bonds” and are considered speculative with respect to the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal. These securities involve greater risk of loss, are subject to greater price volatility, and may be less liquid and more difficult to value, especially during periods of economic uncertainty or change, than higher rated debt securities.
  The market prices of the Fund's fixed income securities may fluctuate significantly when interest rates change. The value of your investment will generally go down when interest rates rise. A rise in rates tends to have a greater impact on the prices of longer term or duration securities. For example, if interest rates increase by 1%, the value of a Fund's portfolio with a portfolio duration of ten years would be expected to decrease by 10%, all other things being equal. In recent years interest rates and credit spreads in the U.S. have been at historic lows. The U.S. Federal Reserve has raised certain interest rates, and interest rates may continue to go up. A general rise in interest rates could adversely affect the price and liquidity of fixed income securities. The maturity of a security may be significantly longer than its effective duration. A security's maturity and other features may be more relevant than its effective duration in determining the security's sensitivity to other factors affecting the issuer or markets generally, such as changes in credit quality or in the yield premium that the market may establish for certain types of securities (sometimes called "credit spread"). In general, the longer its maturity the more a security may be susceptible to these factors. When the credit spread for a fixed income security goes up, or "widens," the value of the security will generally go down. 
  If an issuer or guarantor of a security held by the Fund or a counterparty to a financial contract with the Fund defaults on its obligation to pay principal and/or interest, has its credit rating downgraded or is perceived to be less creditworthy, or the credit quality or value of any underlying assets declines, the value of your investment will typically decline. Changes in actual or perceived creditworthiness may occur quickly. The Fund could be delayed or hindered in its enforcement of rights against an issuer, guarantor or counterparty.
  With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet to conduct business, the Fund is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. While the Fund’s Adviser has established business continuity plans in the event of, and risk management systems to prevent, limit or mitigate, such cyber-attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems, including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Fund cannot control the cybersecurity plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Fund such as the Fund's custodian and accounting agent, and the Fund’s transfer agent. In addition, many beneficial owners of Fund shares hold them through accounts at broker-dealers, retirement platforms and other financial market participants over which neither the Fund nor the Adviser exercises control. Each of these may in turn rely on service providers to them, which are also subject to the risk
  of cyber-attacks. Cybersecurity failures or breaches at the Adviser or the Fund’s service providers or intermediaries have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with the Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Fund stockholders to effect share purchases or sales or receive distributions, loss of or unauthorized access to private stockholder information and violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, or additional compliance costs. Such costs and losses may not be covered under any insurance. In addition, maintaining vigilance against cyber-attacks may involve substantial costs over time, and system enhancements may themselves be subject to cyber-attacks.

  The Fund invests in below investment grade (high yield) municipal securities. Debt securities rated below investment grade are commonly referred to as “junk bonds” and are considered speculative with respect to the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal. These securities involve greater risk of loss, are subject to greater price volatility, and may be less liquid and more difficult to value, especially during periods of economic uncertainty or change, than higher rated debt securities.
  The market prices of the Fund's fixed income securities may fluctuate significantly when interest rates change. The value of your investment will generally go down when interest rates rise. A rise in rates tends to have a greater impact on the prices of longer term or duration securities. For example, if interest rates increase by 1%, the value of a Fund's portfolio with a portfolio duration of ten years would be expected to decrease by 10%, all other things being equal. In recent years interest rates and credit spreads in the U.S. have been at historic lows. The U.S. Federal Reserve has raised certain interest rates, and interest rates may continue to go up. A general rise in interest rates could adversely affect the price and liquidity of fixed income securities. The maturity of a security may be significantly longer than its effective duration. A security's maturity and other features may be more relevant than its effective duration in determining the security's sensitivity to other factors affecting the issuer or markets generally, such as changes in credit quality or in the yield premium that the market may establish for certain types of securities (sometimes called "credit spread"). In general, the longer its maturity the more a security may be susceptible to these factors. When the credit spread for a fixed income security goes up, or "widens," the value of the security will generally go down. 
  If an issuer or guarantor of a security held by the Fund or a counterparty to a financial contract with the Fund defaults on its obligation to pay principal and/or interest, has its credit rating downgraded or is perceived to be less creditworthy, or the credit quality or value of any underlying assets declines, the value of your investment will typically decline. Changes in actual or perceived creditworthiness may occur quickly. The Fund could be delayed or hindered in its enforcement of rights against an issuer, guarantor or counterparty.
  With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet to conduct business, the Fund is susceptible to operational, information security and related risks. While the Fund’s Adviser has established business continuity plans in the event of, and risk management systems to prevent, limit or mitigate, such cyber-attacks, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems, including the possibility that certain risks have not been identified. Furthermore, the Fund cannot control the cybersecurity plans and systems put in place by service providers to the Fund such as the Fund's custodian and accounting agent, and the Fund’s transfer agent. In addition, many beneficial owners of Fund shares hold them through accounts at broker-dealers, retirement platforms and other financial market participants over which neither the Fund nor the Adviser exercises control. Each of these may in turn rely on service providers to them, which are also subject to the risk
  of cyber-attacks. Cybersecurity failures or breaches at the Adviser or the Fund’s service providers or intermediaries have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, interference with the Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, impediments to trading, the inability of Fund stockholders to effect share purchases or sales or receive distributions, loss of or unauthorized access to private stockholder information and violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, or additional compliance costs. Such costs and losses may not be covered under any insurance. In addition, maintaining vigilance against cyber-attacks may involve substantial costs over time, and system enhancements may themselves be subject to cyber-attacks.
