How Will I Receive My Dividends?
A dividend is a payment made by a corporation to its shareholders, usually as a distribution of profits. When a corporation earns a profit or surplus, the corporation is able to re-invest the profit in the business and pay a proportion of the profit as a dividend to shareholders.
Dividends are paid into your Abacus account.
You can then choose to immediately withdraw or reinvest your funds.
Happy Investing 😊
