A closed-end equity fund declared a quarterly dividend of $0.31 per common share, payable March 15, 2026, to shareholders recorded by February 27, 2026. The dividend marks a 14.8% increase from 2025, continuing over a decade of consistent, growing payouts. Designated as an "eligible dividend" under Canadian tax law, it qualifies for preferential tax treatment for shareholders. The company can issue regular taxable dividends or capital gains dividends, the latter allowing tax recovery on realized gains due to its investment corporation status. Focused on medium-to-long-term Canadian investments, the fund aims to deliver above-average returns through strategic security selection and capital gains management.
