JOHN HANCOCK DIVERSIFIED INCOME FUND NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS - SOURCES OF DISTRIBUTION UNDER SECTION 19(a)
John Hancock Diversified Income Fund (NYSE: HEQ) has announced its quarterly distribution of $0.2500 per share for March 2025, payable to shareholders of record as of March 13, 2025.

존 핸콕 다각화 소득 펀드 (NYSE: HEQ)는 2025년 3월에 대한 분기 배당금 주당 $0.2500을 발표했습니다. 이는 2025년 3월 13일 기준 주주에게 지급됩니다. 이 배당금은 펀드의 관리 배당 계획의 일환으로, 추가 공지가 있을 때까지 이 금액으로 고정된 분기 배당금을 유지합니다.
펀드는 수익과 실현된 순자본 이익보다 더 많은 배당금을 지급했다고 밝혔으며, 이는 배당금의 일부가 자본 반환을 나타낼 수 있음을 시사합니다. 이는 일부 투자자가 원래 투자금의 일부를 되돌려 받을 수 있음을 의미하며, 이는 수익 또는 소득과 혼동해서는 안 됩니다.
