AGF Investments Announces Revised Final Distribution for AGF Systematic Emerging Markets Equity ETF

May 24, 2024 • Distributions

AGF Investments Inc. (AGF Investments) today announced a revised final distribution amount for AGF Systematic Emerging Markets Equity ETF (ticker: QEM) (the “ETF”).

This is an update from the distribution previously announced on May 16, 2024.

Unitholders of record on May 24, 2024 will receive notional distributions payable in respect of the ETF on May 24, 2024.

The final distributions will not be paid in cash but will be reinvested in the form of a notional distribution and reported as taxable. A notional distribution is when the units from a reinvested distribution are immediately consolidated with the units held prior to the distribution. The number of units held after the distribution is therefore identical to the number of units held before the distribution. The unitholder’s adjusted cost base for the ETF may increase.

Details regarding the revised final “per unit” distribution amounts are as follows:

ETF Fund Ticker Exchange Revised Final Distribution Per Unit ($)
