Ranking 1 of 12
Highest Distribution Yield
Funds paying out the most cash per dollar of share price over the past year. A high payout is not a high return: check the payout rate on assets and the asset return columns before reading it as income.
Funds ranked by trailing 12-month distribution yield on market price (default) or by the current annualised regular distribution rate.
Data date: prices through Oct 14, 2026, NAV through Oct 13, 2026, computed Oct 15, 2026, 5:10 PM EDT. Yield on latest market price; distributions from FMP; specials inferred where the sponsor has not classified them.
This is a descriptive list, not a recommendation. The highest distribution rates are often funded from capital.

Methodology
- Universe: active, SEC-verified, exchange-listed traditional closed-end funds with a current price. BDCs, unlisted and unverified funds are excluded.
- Trailing 12-month yield = actual distributions with ex-dates in the past 12 months ÷ latest market price; the default includes special distributions and flags them.
- The current regular rate = latest regular distribution × its frequency ÷ market price; special distributions are never annualised.
- A high rate says nothing about sustainability: compare with the NAV distribution rate, leverage, expenses and NAV total return shown alongside.
- Sample requirement: Requires at least one distribution in the past 12 months.
- Tie-breaker: higher 3-month average dollar volume, then ticker.
- Refresh: nightly after the U.S. close; price-dependent columns refresh during the session. Missing values are shown as missing, never as zero.
- Paid placements never alter these rankings. Full details: ranking methodology.
