Dividend summary

Frequency
Monthly

Western Asset Global Corporate Opportunity Fund pays a monthly distribution of $0.12 per share. The most recent one paid had an ex-date of September 23, 2026 and was paid on September 30, 2026. Two more are already declared at the same amount: one with an ex-date of October 23, payable October 30, and one with an ex-date of November 20, payable November 30, 2026. Over the trailing twelve months, the fund paid $1.46 per share, a yield of 15.14% at a share price of $9.67.

The table shows 20 monthly payments, from April 2025 to November 2026, and every one of them was $0.12 per share. Ex-dates usually fall between the 20th and the 24th of the month, and payment follows about a week later, on or near the last business day of the month. The source gives a growth streak of one year, but the per-share amount has not changed anywhere in the record shown.

If the monthly pattern holds, the distribution after the declared November one would go ex-distribution in late December 2026 and be paid at the end of that month, as it was in December 2025.
