Delaware Enhanced Global Dividend and Income Fund Announces Dividends
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Today, Delaware Enhanced
Global Dividend and Income Fund (the "Fund"), a New York Stock Exchange-listed
closed-end fund trading under the symbol "DEX," declares a monthly dividend of
$0.142 per share. The dividend is payable September 26, 2008, to shareholders
of record at the close of business on September 12, 2008. The ex-dividend
date will be September 10, 2008.
The Fund's primary investment objective is to seek current income, with a
secondary objective of capital appreciation. The Fund invests globally in
dividend-paying or income-generating securities across multiple asset classes,
including but not limited to: equity securities of large, well-established
companies, securities issued by real estate companies (including real estate
investment trusts and real estate industry operating companies), debt
securities (such as government bonds, investment grade and high risk, high
yield corporate bonds, and convertible bonds), and emerging market securities.
The Fund also utilizes enhanced income strategies by engaging in dividend
capture trading, option overwriting, realization of gains on the sale of
securities, dividend growth, and currency forwards.
The Fund has implemented a managed distribution policy. Under the policy,
the Fund is managed with a goal of generating as much of the distribution as
possible from net investment income and short-term capital gains. The balance
of the distribution will then come from long-term capital gains to the extent
permitted and a return of capital.
