Cash dividends
Shareholders can arrange to have their dividends paid directly into their bank or building society account.
You can arrange for your cash dividend to be paid directly into your bank or building society account by completing a bank mandate form or by contacting our Registrars, Equiniti.
The advantages to using this service are:
- The payment is more secure as you can avoid the risk of cheques getting lost in the post
- It avoids the hassle of paying in a cheque
- There is no risk of lost, stolen or out-of-date cheques
