Manulife Investment Management Announces Final Reinvested Distributions for Manulife Exchange Traded Funds
December 31, 2020
TORONTO – Manulife Investment Management today announced the final 2020 annual reinvested distributions for Manulife Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). These annual reinvested distributions generally represent realized capital gains within the ETFs.
Unitholders of record at close of business on December 31, 2020 will receive the 2020 reinvested distributions. The distributions will not be paid in cash, but will be reinvested automatically in additional units of the respective ETFs and immediately consolidated so that the number of units held by each unitholder, the units outstanding of the ETFs and the net asset value of the ETFs will not change because of the distributions. Unitholders holding their units outside registered plans will have taxable amounts to report and an increase in the adjusted cost base of their investment.
The actual taxable amounts, including the tax characteristics, will be reported to brokers through Clearing and Depository Services Inc. in early 2021.
Please note that the cash distributions are reported separately and may be applicable for some ETFs making annual reinvested distributions.
Details of the reinvested distribution per unit amounts are as follows:
