T. Rowe Price to Pay Fund Shareholders, Clients About $194M Over Dell Buyout Voting Mistake
Mutual fund company T-Rowe Price Group Inc. (TROW) will pay $194M to clients because of a proxy-voting mistake it made in 2013 during the management buyout of Dell Inc. The payments will be made to a number of institutional client accounts, two trusts, four U.S. mutual funds, and one fund located overseas.
Among the funds to benefit the most are the:
· T. Rowe Price Equity Income Fund (PRFDX)
· T. Rowe Price Science & Technology Fund (PRSCX), which is expected to be affected the most because it has a greater number of Dell shares as a percentage of all its assets.
· T. Rowe Price Institutional Large-Cap Value Fund (TILCX)
Shareholders will not get cash as part of this payout. Instead, they will see the results in the performance bump of the impacted portfolios.
