On April 1, 2026, abrdn Global Premier Properties Fund (NYSE: AWP) announced that it has entered into an amended and restated distribution agreement with ALPS Distributors, Inc. This agreement allows the Fund to offer and sell up to $55 million of its common shares of beneficial interest through transactions defined as 'at the market' under Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933. The Fund's ability to sell shares at or above the current net asset value is a critical aspect of this offering, ensuring that the shares are not sold below their intrinsic value. The distribution agreement also permits the Distributor to engage sub-placement agents, including UBS Securities LLC, to facilitate the sale of these shares. This strategic move is expected to enhance the Fund's liquidity and provide additional capital for future investments. The offering will be conducted under the Fund's effective shelf registration statement on Form N-2, which was previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Fund's management believes that this offering will strengthen its financial position and support its ongoing investment strategy.
