Several Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) listed companies are set to trade ex-dividend next week, meaning investors who purchase shares on or after the ex-dividend date will not receive the upcoming dividend payment.
While the specific list of companies varies by week, common ex-dividend dates occur on the business day following the record date. Investors should check the ASX announcements or their broker's calendar for exact dates and amounts.
Key factors to consider include the dividend yield, franking credits, and the potential share price drop on the ex-dividend date, which typically reflects the dividend amount.
For the most accurate and up-to-date information, refer to the official ASX website or your financial advisor.
