Q: Forgive my ignorance but has this etf been paying a regular dividend? It used to by loaning shares to shortsellers? Does it still do something similar and what is the dividend payment frequency ? Annually ? Quarterly ? Thanks 👍
5i Research Answer:
Indicated yield is 3.6%. It pays quarterly, with the last payments April, Jan, October, July. It also paid one in June, but missed a year of payments after the June 2021 payment. Payments vary. So, the answer is yes, it pays a dividend, but it is far from 'regular' and is often omitted as well.
