TORONTO, Nov. 26, 2021 /CNW/ - Scotia Global Asset
Management today announced the estimated year-end reinvested
distributions for the Scotia Index Tracker ETFs listed on the NEO
for the 2021 tax year. These are estimated amounts only and have
been calculated based upon forward-looking information as of
October 29, 2021. As these are
estimated amounts, the actual distributions may differ materially
from these estimates.
These are estimated distributions of undistributed capital
gains. These distributions are typically reinvested in
additional units of the respective Scotia Index Tracker ETF at
year-end, and do not include estimates of any monthly and/or
quarterly cash distributions for the remainder of the year. The
additional units will be immediately consolidated so that the
number of units outstanding following the distribution will equal
the number of units outstanding prior to the distribution.
We expect to announce updated estimates of the year-end
reinvested distribution amounts (as well as any monthly and/or any
quarterly cash distribution amounts, as applicable) on or about
December 22, 2021. The record date
for the 2021 final year-end distributions will be December 31, 2021, payable on January 10, 2022.
The actual taxable amounts of reinvested and cash distributions
for 2021, including the tax characteristics of the distributions,
will be reported to CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. in
early 2022. Securityholders can reach out to their brokerage firm
for this information.
The estimated reinvested distribution amounts are:
