OFST701090 – UK Distribution Type

Depending on the underlying investments, income arising may be a dividend distribution or an interest distribution. It is mandatory for Management Companies to inform the type of distribution. Dividend distributions from UK domiciled funds that fall within the dividend allowance are not subject to the tax. However, a tax liability may arise on the excess depending on the shareholder personal circumstances. Interest distributions from UK domiciled funds are taxed as savings income and may be eligible for the Personal Savings Allowance or the 0% starting rate tax band for savings.
