Purpose Investments Inc. (“Purpose”) is pleased to announce distributions for the month of May 2024 for its open-end exchange traded funds and closed-end funds (“the Funds”).

Commencing in May 2024, as North American capital markets transition to T+1 settlement cycle, the distribution ex-dividend dates have been updated to fall on the same day as the distribution record dates for the ETF series of Open-End Purpose Funds. Further, the timeline for distribution payments for ETF series of Open-End Purpose Funds has been shortened and will be processed four business days after the corresponding distribution record date. The industry-wide transition to T+1 settlement cycle is expected to reduce counterparty risk and increase overall market efficiency.

Purpose Emerging Markets Dividend Fund, Purpose International Dividend Fund, Purpose International Tactical Hedged Equity Fund, as well as Purpose Closed-End Funds will continue their existing T+2 settlement cycle, and the distribution ex-dividend date will remain unchanged for these funds.         The ex-distribution date for all Open-End Funds is May 29, 2024, with the exception of Purpose Emerging Markets Dividend Fund and Purpose International Dividend Fund, which will have an ex-distribution date of May 28, 2024. The ex-distribution date for all Closed-End Funds is May 30, 2024.
