Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I have owned BIP on the US side of my RSP for some time. A few months ago there was a spin off and I received a number of shares of BIPC. The dividend is the same. My question is should I sell all my BIP and then buy BIPC. In your opinion will BIPC have a better chance of capital appreciation because of it's corporate structure?

Thanks Ken

Q: I hold BIPC:US in my TFSA (TD-Waterhouse; US$ brokerage account). I am confused as to what dividend I can expect on Sep 30; the company website appears to indicate it will be US$0.485/share; however, the BIPC "profile"—as per the 5i website—indicates upcoming dividend of CA$0.6325. I’m not sure what to expect (of course, I am hoping dividend is paid in US$, otherwise I’ll need to later move the shares to the Canadian dollar side of the brokerage account, to avoid unnecessary currency exchange costs).
