Continuous Disclosure Form: (SKO) Strateji Portfolio Dividend-Paying Equity Investment Fund

In line with the Fund’s investment strategy, the Fund primarily invests in equity securities included in the BIST Dividend Index, as well as in companies that have generated high dividend yields over the last five years and/or companies that, although not included in the BIST Dividend Index, are considered to have high dividend potential based on investment analyses.

As the Fund qualifies as an equity-intensive fund, at least 80% of the Fund’s portfolio value shall continuously be invested, excluding shares of securities investment trusts, in shares of issuers traded on BIST, cash collateral for futures contracts based on issuer shares and issuer share indices, premiums for option contracts based on issuer shares, exchange-traded warrants based on issuer shares, and exchange-traded fund (ETF) participation shares established to track, within the scope of subparagraph (a) of the fourth paragraph of Article 5 of the Communiqué No. III-52.2 on the Principles Regarding Exchange Traded Funds, indices consisting of at least 80% issuer shares (excluding shares of securities investment trusts).

Foreign investment instruments may also be included in the Fund’s portfolio. However, foreign currency and foreign capital market instruments may constitute up to 20% of the Fund’s total asset value.

The Fund aims to distribute to its investors, as dividend payments, the dividend income generated from the financial instruments in which it invests, thereby providing investors with a regular cash flow.

The Fund shall make a dividend payment to holders of Fund participation shares on 15 December (the “Dividend Payment Date“). The amount of the dividend to be distributed for each period shall be determined by the Founder (the Portfolio Management Company).

Regarding dividend distributions, the dividend shall accrue based on the Fund’s total asset value calculated on the business day immediately preceding 15 December, and payment shall be made on the third business day to investors who are recorded as holders of Fund participation shares as of the records on the business day immediately preceding 15 December.

If the money transfer system is unavailable on the scheduled payment date, the payment shall be postponed until the first day on which money transfers are available. If the scheduled payment date falls on a half-day public holiday, the payment shall be made on the following business day.
