Capital Stock [Table Text Block] |  |  |  |  | NOTE 3 - CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS Common Shares: There are an unlimited number of no par value common shares of beneficial interest authorized for each Fund. Clough Global Dividend and Income Fund has filed a registration statement with the SEC authorizing the Fund to issue additional common shares through one or more equity shelf programs (“Shelf Offerings”). Under the Shelf Offerings, the Fund, subject to market conditions, may raise additional equity capital by issuing additional common shares from time to time in varying amounts and by different offering methods at a net price at or above the Fund’s NAV per common share. In the event the Fund’s Shelf Offering registration statement is no longer current, the Fund may not issue additional common shares until a post-effective amendment to the registration statement has been filed with the SEC. The Board of each Fund announced, on June 2, 2023, that it had approved a share repurchase program in accordance with Section 23(c) of the 1940 Act. Under the share repurchase program, each Fund may purchase up to 5% of its outstanding common shares in open market transactions through June 30, 2025. Transactions in common shares were as follows:
