Like play like play, Julius Berger is getting to N100. Even a day after dividends were paid. Not the usual price slump from dividend declaration/qualification date. Please what is driving this? It was said that CCECC and other chinese firms in the construction sector will affect its profitability but then...

emmaodet:


Have filled the necessary info and documents on the portal.
Please how do I track my dividends progress? I downloaded a document with some numbers for each stock.
How do I use it? Thanks

No information about how to track progress. I guess one just have to wait. The person who posted the link initially actually complained about delay in getting the dividends.

crownprince2017:



Let them know that it's not free too.

Yes. A price was quoted. But I did not get indication for where and how to pay and I have gotten two dividends anyway. Anyone with that information can share. Maybe that is delaying the remaining I am yet to get.

Thanks to that person who posted the NIBSS link for e-dividend self-service. Can't find the post to quote in appreciation.

I got the dividends of Zenith and StanbicIBTC which I enrolled for without the bank/stockbroker/registrar paper process.

Waiting for the others.

Here is the link for any other person who might need it:

We are all students of the market 10, 20,30. 70 years old. Most of all you need is here if you can put in the work (companies, brokerage house to choose from,etc). Start from Page 1 is the way to go. This shouldn't take up to a week or more than a month depends on how much of a voracious reader you are (I will not suggest what i didn't do myself). This gives you better picture of how the past played out (political and economic scenario of Nigeria since 2012 till date). To keep up with daily gist, you can always read through the current post daily. All the best, if you still have questions, post here, peeps will give their suggestions.

Welcome to the Jungle!!!!

A glimpse of the past for HA, "historical analysis", seeing the way the cookie crumbles every cycle.

The lost pages during a technical glitch on nairaland are so painful.

Ikeja Hotel Dividend received on 31st July and I didn't submit E-dividend mandate. I believe their Regitrars Greenwich used my Bank details with my Stockbroker through which I bought the shares even though I already have an active mandated E-divided for ECOBANK with the same Registrars for another Bank.
I wish other Regitrars do same to reduce stress for Shareholders, my Gtb Dividends have been hanging for so long, done everything they asked and got tired jor.

On e-dividends matter, this might help some persons also: It so happened that there was an error in the order of my name for BVN. It was different from the order with my bank.

BVN: Second First Surname.
BANK: First Second Surname.

E-dividends were unresolved till customer service pointed the error out when I went to resolve something else. A stockbroker confirmed the disparity will prevent dividend payment. I had to swear a court affidavit to get the BVN error corrected at the bank.

Shortly after, I got my dividends.

Streetinvestor2:
Going by Pa Emma account of things that happened in the 80s comparing it to what I can equally remember. Like me learning my first bike riding in a primary school field for a kobo.And my favourite drink then Green shandy. I believe he came after the biafra war.He should be btw 52-53 yrs.

80s memories. Wish NBL will bring Green Sands back. I am sure it contributed the word "shandy" to the Nigerian lexicon.

Please with regards to selling off shares and re-entering, do you receive your dividend when you re-purchase same stock or you have to go through the e-dividend process again? I recall First Registrars kept your record even if you sold off. Your account reads 0 shares. Saw that when I visited their office in the days when they still held FBNH portfolio. But I will like to ask about people's experience with selling off and buying again.

Do you get your dividend or you have to climb that e-dividend hill all over again.

bfn1:

This thread was created 10 years ago & you are commenting on its 6,766th page.
That should tell you a lot about it.

You'll get good information to guide your investment decisions.

Also very many pages were lost to a glitch some years back.

Lovelygbems:


Meaning you don't know anything about business models.... especially a private equity

OMG

Who also got a mail from First Registrar about a reminder to fill a form for Stanbic Bonus. I didn’t even see the actual mail anyway.

You may want to check your mail for action in case you are affected.

emmasoft:


Yes that is actually the target of the regulators and operators.

In the nearest future what SEC, CSCS and Registrars want to achieve is to harmonize investors data such that as you open your cscs account through a broker all details including your bvn and bank account details will be send to the registrars.

The first step was carried out not too long ago when stockbroking firms were asked to collect the kyc and update of all their clients.

Like I said in my previous post things have improved and still improving.

I'm sure the likes of PA Emma can relate to those days where it's a must to have a current account before you can get your dividend that will get to you may be after three months from payment date sometimes the dividend warrant would have expired before getting to you.

Hahaha! The kind jijo wey go follow this thing ehn. Some investors will suddenly discover they had some jijo spirit in them all along.

Bbbwings:
dividend dey land without filling forms now

Seems so. This "simple" thing can make some difference for participation in the Nigerian stock market. If price doesn't move, it might yield claimable dividend.

Could it be that NGX has moved to a new level with dividend admin. I bought Okomu and got my dividend without applying for it. I got it in my savings account, while all my dividend applications are for Current account.

Also, other pending applications got paid into same savings account.

Has NGX done the expected with BVN? Anyone with this experience?

wanaj0:
Eku market ooooo

Invoice for 'school fees' will be sent out soon. Those affected should get ready to pay.

Hmmm. I was able to hand over Afromedia to my successor today. I wish them happy schooling. I have been schooling since 2011 when I opened my account and was excited to click and click. I bought "gude" not knowing. Even if e wan turn N10 now, I no do again. Happy Grad to me.

Mcy56:

Hope the stock won't turn you to long termer.......by the time conductor locked door.

Also saw some guys buying Afromedia!
Even RT Briscoe!!
Newbies, don't go and be buying anything in the name of Penny stock.

Insurance is what we've been empasizing here for now cos of the Recapitalization exercise.
Japaul too......on the news of mining divestment, fund raising.
The Vice President sometimes signed some docs relating to this. Was posted here but I can't find the link again..........we can see the effect on the share price and will likely see more effect once support is sighted or there's any updated news again ........
Make Una dey play safe.

Don't mention me if you buy DAARCOMS and think you're buying bargain o......

Ha. Afromedia!!! Since 2011. I even gave it out at .10kobo. My last mistake waiting to be corrected. The other one was Japaul. Got out and ran faast during the Milost era.

Pee2Jay9:
Hello everyone, great job y'all are doing here. Pls can someone kindly explain this stock business to me? I've been reading from page 6000 and I can only infer that it's buying and selling. Is it all to it?
How do one know when to buy?
How are the purchases done?
I know that experience will teach me which shares to buy or not buy, but kindly educate a lay man like me that is new to all this. Thanks alot

There are a lot of resources online. You can’t hack it without researching and reading. Keep reading, here and other sources.
The idea is not to start trading immediately. Like someone indicated, the market is going nowhere. When you are ready, it’s there. I started following the market as far back as 2003 and could only get actively involved from 2011.

However, summarily from me:
All companies you see are either privately owned (Ltd) or publicly quoted (Plc)
Publicly quoted companies allow anyone so interested to be a part owner (shareholder)
A shareholder becomes an owner by buying shares of the company after it has been broken down into shares.
Shares are units of any public quoted company.
The stock exchange (NSE) is the only Ladipo market for shares trading, where you can buy shares and sell those shares if no longer interested.
Shareholders profit from companies by 1) taking their share of profits(dividends) which can be once a year or two times.
2) by selling the shares they have whenever the price goes beyond the purchase price.
The dynamics of the above is why books have been written and we have over 6000 pages of rich insights, jokes, camaraderie, fights and insults on this thread. (Mind you very many other pages were lost during a glitch sometime ago).

I wonder if this counts as a summary though. Just my own way of providing answer to your question.

Peace.

mickky22:


Please any information about Japaul Oil?

Sorry I don't follow news of companies that don't ever pay dividend. It's an indication for me not to touch a stock. JIJO doesn't work for me. If e no increase in price for sale, at least during my waiting time, if cycle of dividend comes, I should collect consolation price.

Afromedia Changes Financial Year-end to December 31
https://businesspost.ng/economy/afromedia-changes-financial-year-end-to-december-31/

O Lord, deliver me from Afromedia abeg. Like you did with Japaul. I have learnt. I need school fees refund.

Been trying to sell this aloku for .10k.

godlyguy:
Are they ones incharge of mtn? Please send me the link...

Yea. MTN, Caverton, Dangote Cement, Access bank, Airtel, Redstar,

Hello house, which of the registrars is handling Bagco. I bought Into this company about 15 years ago and I seem to have lost touch with the company. Thanks

You are now a shareholder in flourmills. I think with reduced holdings though.

[quote author=JAS10 post=94894280][/q]

I guess other registrars will start catching on gradually.

Just checked the registrars website, Atlas registrars. Unclaimed dividends aplenty. If I recall clearly, the registrar used to be Flourmills Registrar Ltd. Maybe an inhouse department kinda. That might be responsible for plenty unclaimed dividends. They seemed so analogue then even the envelope they posted their correspondence with.

Anyway, I think a new dawn is here. Maybe someone discovered it's a way to sustain investors' interest. You can't sell and you can't profit from dividends declared. As someone used to say here, if he no v*****t, e go p***h.

Parisfran:


They wont attend to it.

Only Afriprud (that I am aware of) attends to forms submitted through their link.

I said I just received my dividends. Means it was attended to. MTN that was paid is a proof it was the online request that yielded this result. I have not done the paper application for e-dividend after buying MTN for the first time.

Audacius:
I want to thank the person who shared the United Securities link here. I used it to request and just some 10 minutes ago, I got all my pending dividends for Access, MTN and Dangcem. Surprising is the Dangcem I have sold off long ago.

Thank you all for the good you do.

Hopefully, this will have effect on other registrars. If we can process dividends this easy, it’s a happy new dawn.

Parisfran:
The fact that after 6,000 pages you people dont know how to ignore is baffling.

If it is someone asking for help or advice now, only Mcy or 1 additional person will talk, yet see comments going on and on. This is actually very telling.

EXCELLENT!!!

jideflash:
Fbnh just sent me dividends. I wonder from what year was this? Anyways glad it came owo weekend.

Also got 4 different alerts for Fidelity today. Seems First Registrars is cleaning their books or a new process makes them go back and discover unpaid dividend from the past. Well, it is sweet now. Complaints of yesteryears.

Ecco! I never chop ban.

The "new" FBNH started dividend numbering from 01. FBN Plc stopped at Div. 55

I hope a ban doesn't follow this as we have read. Well, I seldomly post. I guess it would have elapsed before I know about it.

If it is a glitch, we might be asked to refund or we have collected some dividends in advance.

MishdaFish:
same here. It read div 53 when i checked there site dividend no5 53 was sometime in 2009. https://www.fbnholdings.com/shareholders-information/dividend-history/

Mine reads Div 55 and the sum looks familiar. Like I have received that kind of figure before. Glitch or what?!

makashava:
Fbnh just sent dividend like 0.005k?

Yes. Thanks. The alert was confusing to me. Just came here after seeing it to for indications.

ukay2:


Send reminder to the Registrar.

They should look into their records and pay any remaining dividend balance.

Did same with Veritas so years ago....I got alert so te I tire with different alerts for about 8 yeras dividend arrears

Thanks.

Hoping GTL will reply.

Feedback is one factor that makes e-dividend processing cumbersome. You have to wait till a payment day to know if your request was successful.
