Vanguard Investments Canada Announces Final 2023 Annual Capital Gains Distributions for the Vanguard ETFs® - VGAB, VBG, VBU


TORONTO, Dec. 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vanguard Investments Canada Inc. today announced the final annual capital gains distributions for the Vanguard ETFs listed below for the 2023 tax year. This is an update to the estimated annual capital gains distributions announced on November 15, 2023 and December 18, 2023.

These amounts 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. The annual capital gains distributions do not include the ongoing monthly, quarterly or annual cash distribution amounts, which are reported in a separate press release.

The ex-dividend date for the 2023 annual distributions for these ETFs is December 22, 2023. The record date for the 2023 annual distributions will be December 27, 2023 and payable on January 4, 2024. The actual taxable amounts of reinvested capital gains distributions for 2023, including the tax characteristics of the distributions, will be reported to brokers (through CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc.) in early-2024.
