Springdale, Ark., Aug. 7 - Federated Investors Inc. announced Thursday that it plans to partially redeem auction market preferred shares from the Federated Premier Municipal Income Fund and Federated Premier Intermediate Municipal Income Fund.

The Federated Premier Intermediate Municipal Income Fund plans to redeem $10.125 million, or 17%, of outstanding preferreds from series A on Aug. 25.
