In South Africa, the SASI (Savings Institute of South Africa) has designated July as the annual “Savings Month.”
To encourage households to start saving, the South African government introduced the TFSA (tax-free savings account) in 2015. The money invested in a TFSA is not subject to tax on any interest, dividends, capital gains, and withdrawals, and has an annual contribution limit of R36,000 per tax year (lifetime limit of R500,000).
Notably, several exchange-traded funds will be paying dividends with upcoming last dates to trade and are also available in the tax-free account. These include funds from Prescient and Sygnia such as:
- Sygnia Itrix Top 40 ETF: Provides exposure to the 40 largest companies listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
- Sygnia Itrix Euro Stoxx ETF: Provides access to leading blue-chip companies in the Eurozone.
- Sygnia Itrix MSCI USA Index ETF: Invests in large and mid-cap companies within the United States.
- Sygnia Itrix MSCI Japan ETF: Focuses on large and mid-cap companies in the Japanese market.
- Sygnia Itrix FTSE 100 ETF: Captures the performance of the biggest 100 listed companies in the UK.
- Sygnia Itrix MSCI World Index ETF: Offers exposure to developed market equities through large and mid-cap companies.
The Prescient Income Provider Feeder Actively Managed ETF aims to deliver consistent income by investing in diversified income-generating assets like bonds and property shares. It pays monthly dividends and is available in the tax-free savings account on EasyEquities.
