Question.

 

1. How to find out the dividend payment dates for a stock ?

2. If you bought the stock a few weeks before the cut off date, would you get the dividends ? I assume so ?

 

Thx

This is for a Thai listed company?

 

I don't have Thai shares but in most countries the website for the market you're trading on will have that information e.g. in Australia:

Shares are quoted ‘ex dividend’ on the fourth business day before the company's Record Date. To be entitled to a dividend a shareholder must have purchased shares before the ex dividend date. The share price may fall on the ex dividend date, with the fall in price being related to the amount of dividend being paid, on the basis that the buyer will not, in the ordinary course of events, receive the dividend because they will not be registered by the Record Date.

Most companies of any size will have a dedicated Investor section on their website with similar information.

Some local news sites along with dedicated financial sites will also have a detailed share section e.g.
