Aberdeen Multi-Market Income Fund (MMT) Announces 22% Increase in Monthly Distribution and Adoption of a Managed Distribution Policy

Published

on

PHILADELPHIA, July 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Board of Trustees of Aberdeen Multi-Market Income Fund (NYSE: MMT) has adopted a Managed Distribution Policy (“MDP”) for the Fund at an annualized rate equal to 11.00% of MMT’s average monthly net asset value.

The increase of the MDP results in a meaningful enhancement to the shareholder distribution rate, with the Fund’s monthly distribution increased from $0.0328 per share to $0.04 per share, representing a 22% increase over the prior distribution level. This higher payout reflects the Fund’s commitment to delivering consistent, competitive cash flow to shareholders.

The distribution under the new rate will be paid on July 31, 2026, to shareholders of record as of July 23, 2026 (ex-dividend date July 23, 2026). The increased distribution rate reflects both the Fund’s income-generating capability and the Board’s ongoing consideration of shareholder distributions.

Under the MDP, the Fund will pay monthly distributions at an annual rate, set once a year, that is a percentage of the average daily net asset value for the previous month-end prior to declaration date. Distributions under the MDP are expected to be derived from current income, and may be supplemented by net realized capital gains, if any, and, to the extent necessary, a return of paid-in capital.

Important Information

Shares of closed-end funds are listed for trading on national securities exchanges and are bought and sold in the secondary market. The market price of a fund’s shares is determined by supply and demand and may be greater than (a “premium”) or less than (a “discount”) the fund’s net asset value (NAV). A fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and investors may receive more or less than their original investment upon the sale of shares. There is no assurance that a fund will achieve its investment objective. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

The trading price of a closed-end fund’s shares may be influenced by various factors, including market conditions, investor sentiment, and other external forces, and is not directly controlled by the fund, its Board of Directors, or its investment adviser. As a result, shares may trade at a premium to or discount from NAV at any given time. A premium to NAV may not be sustained, and a discount to NAV may increase or decrease over time. Investors should consider these risks when purchasing or selling closed-end fund shares.

Shareholders whose fund shares trade at a premium to NAV and who participate in the fund’s dividend reinvestment plan should be aware that distributions may be reinvested at prices above NAV, which may adversely affect investment results.

The Fund’s policy is expected to provide a steady and sustainable cash distribution to Fund shareholders that may help reduce the Fund’s current discount to NAV. There is no assurance that a Fund will achieve these results. Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the distributions or the terms of the Fund’s policy.

At the end of each calendar year, a Form 1099-DIV will be sent to shareholders, which will state the amount and composition of the fund’s distributions and provide information with respect to their appropriate tax treatment for the prior calendar year. You should not draw any conclusions about any of these Funds’ investment performance from the amount of the distributions.

Circular 230 disclosure: To ensure compliance with requirements imposed by the U.S. Treasury, we inform you that any U.S. tax advice contained in this communication (including any attachments) is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purpose of (i) avoiding penalties under the Internal Revenue Code or (ii) promoting, marketing or recommending to another party any transaction or matter addressed herein.

What to Look for in an Online GLP-1 Provider: Meant Outlines Five Questions Worth Asking Before Signing Up

Published

November 7, 2026

By

MANASSAS, Va., Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As more telehealth companies offer GLP-1 care, the options can look alike from the outside, and telling them apart takes more than a glance at a landing page. Meant is sharing five questions consumers can ask when choosing an online GLP-1 provider, along with how it approaches each one.

Five Questions Worth Asking

Who makes the clinical decisions? A trustworthy provider should be clear about which licensed clinicians review each person’s information. At Meant, those decisions are made by licensed providers through its clinical partner, OpenLoop Health.Is there a real evaluation first? Look for a health-history review before anything is prescribed, and for plain language that a prescription is never guaranteed. Meant’s online assessment covers health history, current medications, and goals.Can the company’s credentials be checked? Independent certifications are one signal consumers can verify for themselves. Meant displays the seal for its LegitScript certification on its website.Is it clear who fills prescriptions? Providers should be open about the pharmacies they work with and whether those pharmacies are licensed in the United States.Is ongoing support spelled out, limits included? Good providers explain what follow-up looks like and who handles which questions. Meant pairs care with an optional Care Coach, and medical questions go to the care team.

A certification is a transparency signal, not a government approval or a promise about results, and no checklist replaces a conversation with a licensed clinician. Meant does not diagnose or prescribe, and treatment is not guaranteed for every applicant.

Take a Closer Look

Consumers who want to see how the assessment, clinical oversight, and coaching fit together can visit Meant‘s website and compare the details against the questions above.

The platform combines an online clinical assessment, licensed oversight through OpenLoop Health, Care Coach support, and supplemental wellness resources. Meant does not itself diagnose or prescribe; clinical decisions are made by its clinical partners. Learn more at meant.health.
