Extraordinary income marks the month of January

In January, according to a study, 40 real estate funds paid more dividends than the amount transferred in the previous month Money info also based on the FII 111 Ifix. The returns refer to operations in December, the month traditionally characterized by an increase in transfers of funds to members.

The justifications for the increase in dividends can be diverse and range from the transfer of the readjustment in leasing contracts to the operational seasonality of portfolios. Mall funds, for example, receive a portion of store sales and as a result end up increasing revenues during peak consumption periods, such as at the end of the year.

But the main factor for the jump in dividends in December is the passing on of accumulated earnings that until then had not been distributed. By law, a real estate fund is obliged to pay at least 95% of the profit earned to its shareholders every six months – even if most portfolios opt for the partial transfer of this profit each month. The fee withheld during the period is normally paid exactly at the end of each semester.

The managers reiterate that the increase in dividends at the turn of the semester is extraordinary, ie after the period the transferred proceeds tend to return to the levels observed in the previous months.
