Headline: First Interim Dividend

 

The Directors of Invesco Global Equity Income Trust plc are pleased to declare a First Interim Dividend for the year ending 31 May 2025 of 3.13p per Global Equity Income share, payable 15 August 2024 to shareholders on the register on 19 July 2024.  The shares will be quoted ex-dividend on 18 July 2024. The projected annualised total dividend of 12.52p per share, represents an increase of at least 70% over the annual dividend that was paid to shareholders for the full year ending 31 May 2024.

 

Dividend Policy

 

Shareholders are reminded that following completion of the restructuring of the Company in May 2024, the Company has adopted a new dividend policy. The new policy will pay an annual dividend of at least 4 per cent. calculated on the unaudited year end NAV, paid quarterly in equal amounts. The intention is that these dividends are to be paid from the Company's revenues and, if required, capital reserves. The Board believes that this should provide both an enhanced dividend compared to historical dividends paid on the Global Equity Income shares and, once the relevant NAV is known, a smoother, more predictable income to shareholders.
