In the first quarter, 1,641 funds distributed over 50 billion yuan in dividends. Equity funds account for nearly 50%, with ETFs performing the best.

Entering the second quarter, the dividend distribution rally for public funds continues to heat up. So far, 22 funds have released profit distribution announcements in quick succession, maintaining a “genuine money, genuine returns” posture in rewarding holders.

Wind data statistics show that in the first quarter this year, the scale and strength of dividend distributions by public funds were both outstanding. With 1,641 funds (counting shares separately) totaling a dividend distribution amount of 53.21 billion yuan (with the dividend payout day as the统计口径), it demonstrates solid performance support and sincerity toward dividend payments. Among them, bond funds involving 885 funds became the absolute main force in the quarter, while stock funds + hybrid funds totaled 700 funds.

Looking more specifically, in the first quarter, bond funds’ total dividend distribution amounted to 22.68B yuan. Of this, mid- to long-term pure bond funds accounted for 14.81B yuan, or 65.27% of the total dividend distribution amount for bond funds.

There were 463 stock funds, with a total dividend distribution amount of 21.51B yuan. Worth noting is that within stock funds, dividend distribution enthusiasm is especially prominent among passive index funds. A total of 426 passive index funds distributed 19.96B yuan in dividends, accounting for 92.79% of the total dividend distribution amount for stock funds.

In terms of dividend amount, the top four are all large-cap broad-market index ETFs, and their dividend amounts are all over 1 billion yuan. They are Huatai-Pinebridge SSE 300 ETF, E Fund SSE 300 ETF, Southern CSI 500 ETF, and Southern CSI 1000 ETF, with amounts of 9.81B yuan, 4.59B yuan, 1.16B yuan, and 1.04B yuan respectively.

In addition, REITs, QDII, and FOF funds also distributed dividends in the first quarter. The number of dividend distribution events was 15 times, 14 times, and 4 times respectively, with total dividend amounts of 871M yuan, 209M yuan, and 10M yuan respectively. However, the combined share of these three is less than 3% of the total dividend distribution amount across all funds.

In the first quarter, there were 106 public fund institutions that participated in dividend distributions. In terms of the number of dividend-distribution products, Nanfa Fund and E Fund involved 84 and 81 funds, respectively. Boshi Fund and 广发 Fund followed next, with 76 and 75 funds respectively. In addition, more than 50 funds from dividend distribution occurred in China Merchants Fund, Guotai Fund, and Harvest Fund in the first quarter.

Looking again at dividend distribution amounts, there are 8 public fund institutions whose dividend distributions all exceeded 1 billion yuan. Huatai-Pinebridge Fund led with 10.98B yuan in dividends, E Fund ranked second with 9.03B yuan, and Southern Fund ranked third with 3.45B yuan.
