iShares Frontier ETF’s Monster Cap Gains

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: iShares recently released its estimated capital-gains distributions for 2014. And, not surprisingly, the iShares MSCI Frontier 100 ETF (FM | D-68) expects to pay out capital gains of $0.91-1.11 per share, amounting to roughly 6.3-7.6 percent of its closing net asset value on Nov. 20.

The exact distribution amount isn’t yet known, but this confirms that FM will in fact pay out a massive distribution on Dec. 24, with an ex-dividend date of Dec. 17.
Regards,
Ted

    Conversely, MFMPX, Morgan Stanley's Frontier Markets OEF, has announced a distribution of 0%. Nada. Looks like good tax management to me
