EASTSPRING INVESTMENTS DECLARES YIELD FOR TARGET INCOME FUND 6



KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 24 (Bernama) – Eastspring Investments Bhd has announced a gross income distribution of 0.0206 sen per unit, or a dividend yield of 2.00 per cent, for the Eastspring Investments Target Income Fund 6 for the financial year-ended May 31, 2018.
Unit holders who have maintained their holdings in the fund as at Aug 23, 2018, will be entitled for the income distribution, the asset management company said in a statement on 24 August 2018.
The five-year closed-ended bond fund is the sixth in a series of target income funds.
"This distribution was consistent with the Fund’s objective which endeavours to provide regular income during the tenure of the Fund.
"Income declared will be paid out either by way of e-payment according to unit holders’ instructions in the account opening form, or by cheque," said Eastspring.
It also added that after months of weakness, risk appetite for Asian credit rebounded in July, with marked credit spread narrowing accompanied by a reversal of the prior trend of investor outflows from emerging market assets.
