RBC Global Asset Management Inc. announces estimated annual reinvested capital gains distributions for RBC ETFs Français
TORONTO, Nov. 21, 2019 /CNW/ - RBC Global Asset Management Inc. (RBC GAM Inc.) today announced estimated 2019 annual reinvested capital gains distribution amounts for unitholders of RBC ETFs.
Please note that these are estimated amounts only, as of October 31, 2019. The estimates could change if the RBC ETFs experience subscriptions, redemptions or engage in portfolio transactions prior to the ex-dividend date or for other unforeseen factors.
The annual capital gains distributions for the RBC ETFs generally represent net realized capital gains within the RBC ETFs and are typically not paid in cash, but are reinvested in additional units of the respective RBC ETF. The additional units will be immediately consolidated with the previously outstanding units such that the number of outstanding units following the distribution will equal the number of units outstanding prior to the distribution. The reinvested capital gains distributions will increase the unitholder's adjusted cost base for the respective RBC ETF.
RBC GAM Inc. expects to announce the final annual reinvested distribution amounts on or about December 31, 2019, while the final December monthly and quarterly cash distributions are expected to be announced on or about December 20, 2019. Unitholders of record as of December 31, 2019 will receive the 2019 annual reinvested distribution amounts.
The actual taxable amounts of reinvested and cash distributions for 2019, including the tax characteristics of the distributions, will be reported to brokers (through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. or "CDS") in early 2020.
The estimated 2019 annual reinvested capital gains distribution amounts per unit for the RBC ETFs are as follows:
