TORONTO, Nov. 28, 2016 /CNW/ - FT Portfolios Canada Co.
today announced the estimated annual capital gains distributions for its Exchange Traded Funds listed below for the 2016 tax year.
Please note that these are estimated amounts only as of November 21, 2016 and reflect forward
looking information which may cause the estimates to change before the ETF's December 2016 tax
year-end.
These estimates are for the year-end capital gains distributions only, which will be re-invested and the resulting units
immediately consolidated, so that the number of units held by each investor will not change. These estimates do not include
estimates of ongoing monthly or quarterly distribution amounts.
First Trust expects to announce the final year-end distribution amounts, as well as the monthly and quarterly cash distribution
amounts, on or about December 19, 2016. The record date for the 2016 annual distributions will be
December 30, 2016, payable on January 9, 2017.
