The index dividend adjustments posted here are a forecast only. These forecasts are provided as a courtesy to our clients, and are based on what market analysts expect companies to pay as a dividend. However, exact company dividends are not known until they are announced to the marketplace on the ex-dividend date. Therefore the final dividend adjustment applied to an index will often differ from the forecast provided below.
CFDs are leveraged products. CFD trading may not be suitable for everyone and can result in losses that exceed your initial investment, so please ensure that you fully understand the risks involved.
