- Investors who wish to maximize charitable giving while minimizing the impact of capital gains taxes.

- Investors who wish, over time, to draw down the invested capital from their portfolio and wish to defer the payment of capital gains taxes.

A return of capital distribution is not taxable. However, the distribution decreases the adjusted cost base of the shares, which results in an increase in the capital gain when the shares are eventually sold. If the distribution causes the investor’s adjusted cost base to become negative in any year, the negative amount is taxed as a capital gain returning the adjusted cost base of the shares to zero.
