Best Answer

ETFs are required to distribute all net investment income (dividends and interest) and realized short and long term gains. Mutual funds can do the same but at times may only allocate capital gains to their shareholders without actually paying them out. In such situations, you have to report income you never received, take the credit for the tax paid by a mutual fund, and adjust the cost basis of your holding. In case, however, where all income and gains are passed to shareholders, no basis adjustment is needed and tax treatment is identical.
