The Philadelphia-based asset manager, ABRDN, announced the distribution payments for its US-listed closed-end funds on January 10, 2025 [1]. The funds, including ABRDN Global Infrastructure Income Fund (ASGI), ABRDN Healthcare Opportunities Fund (THQ), and ABRDN Australia Equity Fund, paid out varying per-share amounts [1].

ASGI shareholders received $0.2000 per share, while THQ distributed $0.1800 per share, and ABRDN Australia Equity Fund paid out $0.1300 per share [1]. The total distribution amount for each fund is subject to change as the funds' distribution policies may be modified by their respective boards [1].

The ABRDN funds aim to provide investors with stable distributions through a combination of current income, realized capital gains, and paid-in capital [1]. Some funds offer shareholders the option to receive stock distributions in newly issued shares or cash, depending on their preference [1].

The distribution policy of each fund is subject to change, and there is no guarantee that it will continue [1]. Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about a fund's investment performance based on the amount of the distributions [1].

Investors should note that the tax treatment of the distributions for each fund will be determined at the end of the calendar year, and a Form 1099-DIV will be sent to shareholders [1].
