Aberdeen Asian Income Fund declares second interim dividend

LONDON - Aberdeen Asian Income Fund Limited has declared a second quarterly interim dividend of 3.84 pence per share for the year ending December 31, 2025, according to a press release issued Tuesday.

The dividend will be paid on August 22 to shareholders registered as of July 25. The ex-dividend date is set for July 24.

Based on the company’s share price of 223 pence as of June 30, and including the first interim dividend already paid, the fund offers an annualized dividend yield of 6.8%.

This marks the second dividend payment since Aberdeen Asian Income Fund introduced its enhanced dividend policy earlier this year. The policy sets quarterly dividends at 1.5625% of the company’s net asset value (NAV), amounting to approximately 6.25% of NAV annually.

The current dividend was calculated based on the fund’s NAV of 246.02 pence per share as of June 30, 2025.

Shareholders have the option to reinvest their dividends through the company’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP), which is managed by Computershare Investor Services PLC. The deadline for DRIP elections is August 1.

The company stated that the enhanced dividend policy aims to broaden the appeal of its shares to a wider range of investors and reflects the sustained investor appetite for yield in the current interest rate environment.
