HOUSTON, Oct. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Kayne Anderson Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. (the “Company”) announced today its distribution payment frequency will change from quarterly to monthly payments beginning in November 2024.
As outlined in the table below, the Company declared a monthly distribution of $0.08 per share payable in November 2024, December 2024 and January 2025. This monthly distribution amount is equivalent to the $0.24 per share quarterly distribution paid by KYN on October 7, 2024.
