If a fund declares dividends, there will be a cut-off date (i.e. the 201cEx-Date 201d) where all units purchased before the date will be entitled to the dividends. The dividends will then be processed by the fund house on or after the 201cPayment Date 201d which is usually after the Ex-Date. If you have opted for the dividend payout option for distribution class cash funds, dividends will be credited into your Phillip account about 10 working days from the Payment Date announced by the fund house. If your dividends are to be reinvested, the dividend amount will be used to purchase more units of the existing fund, at the NAV of the fund on the Ex-Date.
