abrdn Global Infrastructure Income Fund Announces Rights Offering

What Happened

• On Sept. 21, 2026, abrdn Global Infrastructure Income Fund (NYSE: ASGI) entered a Dealer Manager Agreement with abrdn Inc., abrdn Investments Limited and UBS Securities LLC to conduct a transferable rights offering. The Fund filed the 8‑K on Sept. 22, 2026.
• The Fund will issue transferable rights to holders of record at the close of business on Sept. 21, 2026. Rights permit current shareholders to subscribe for new common shares pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated Sept. 21, 2026 and the accompanying prospectus dated Sept. 15, 2026 (part of the Fund’s Form N‑2 registration).

Key Details

• Maximum new shares offered: up to 10,545,755 common shares.
• Rights allocation: one Right per outstanding common share on the Record Date; subscription ratio is 1 new share for every 3 Rights (1 for 3).
• Special provisions: holders owning fewer than three shares as of the Record Date may subscribe for one full share; shareholders who fully exercise may apply for additional shares subject to allotment.
• Related agreements: Subscription Agent Agreement with Equiniti Trust Company, LLC and Information Agent Agreement with EQ Fund Solutions, LLC (both dated Sept. 17, 2026). Legal opinion from Dechert LLP filed as Exhibit 5.1.

Why It Matters

• This rights offering gives existing ASGI shareholders the opportunity to buy additional shares before new shares are sold broadly, which can help them maintain their proportional ownership. Because the offering can increase the total share count (up to 10,545,755 new shares), it may be dilutive if shareholders do not exercise their rights.
• Investors should review the prospectus supplement and the filed agreements for subscription prices, deadlines, limitations, and allotment procedures to decide whether to exercise, sell, or let their rights lapse.
