According to the provisions of the fund contract, fund dividends are paid only when they meet the dividend conditions. Generally speaking, it is agreed to pay dividends at most several times a year, not once a year. However, the proportion of dividends to distributable profits must comply with the contract. For example, some require a dividend of more than 10%, while others require a dividend of 30%, 50% or even 90%.
