“This fund focuses on delivering yield in a sustainable way, with monthly distributions to help investors with their income needs”.
Chhad Aul, Portfolio Manager at Sun Life Global Investments (SLGI) discusses:
1 Distributions should not be confused with “yield” or “income”, and are not intended to reflect a fund’s investment performance or rate of return. Distributions may be comprised of income, capital gains or return of capital. The distribution rate on units held by an investor may be greater than the return on the fund’s investments. If the cash distributions paid to an investor are greater than the net increase in the value of the investment, the distribution will erode the value of the original investment. Distributions are automatically reinvested in additional units of the applicable fund unless the investor instructs us to distribute cash. If necessary, a fund will make an additional distribution of income and capital gains in December of each year. The funds may make additional distributions of income, capital gains or return of capital at any other time as we consider appropriate. A distribution of capital is not immediately taxable to an investor but will reduce the adjusted cost basis of the investor’s units. There can be no assurance that a fund will make any distributions in any particular month, and we reserve the right to adjust the amount of monthly distribution if we consider it appropriate, without notice.
