Understanding Distribution Sources
Investors in these funds should understand that distributions can comprise various income sources. The amounts reflected can often include net investment income, short-term and long-term capital gains, and potentially returns of capital. The funds' performance is also correlated to the market demand and supply dynamics.
To further enhance transparency for shareholders, Aberdeen provides detailed reporting on each fund's distribution and its composition at the end of the calendar year through a Form 1099-DIV. This report outlines the amounts and character of the distributions, aiding investors in understanding their tax implications.
Factors Influencing Distributions
The Board of Directors may modify the distribution policies at any time, providing flexibility in times of market uncertainty. Changes to the distribution policies can significantly influence each fund's performance and shareholder returns.
Though distributions are an essential component of a fund’s offering, shareholders should not rely solely on these amounts when evaluating a fund's overall performance. Other critical factors, such as a fund’s net asset value (NAV) and market price, should also be factored into investment decisions.
