Aberdeen Government Markets Income Fund Announces Reverse Stock Split
The Board of Trustees for Aberdeen Government Markets Income Fund (NYSE: MGF) has approved a 1-for-5 reverse stock split, effective prior to the opening of trading on October 8, 2026. The move aims to increase the fund's per-share market price and reduce administrative frictions typically associated with lower-priced securities. The reverse stock split will not impact shareholders' proportional ownership or the Fund’s investment strategy but may result in minor adjustments due to fractional shares being aggregated and sold. A new CUSIP number has been assigned, and while distributions under the managed distribution policy remain unchanged as a percentage of net asset value (NAV), per-share payouts are expected to increase proportionally. Shareholders holding physical certificates or those with account-related questions should contact Computershare Trust Company for assistance.
