Basic Dividend Policy
The basic dividend policy of the Company is to pay out dividends based upon the followings subject to business results and financial conditions of the Company including the optimum level of capital to support the margin trading services and strategic investment opportunities:
- Dividends Payout Ratio: 60% and above, and
- Dividends on Equity (DOE): 8% and above
The Company sets out the policy on DOE to payout cash dividend which is equivalent to the cost of equity capital (currently 8%) and the policy on dividends payout ratio to secure performance-linked factor of dividend payment in light of the situation that business results of securities brokerage companies depend on the market conditions considerably.
The Company regards ROE as an important benchmark with respect to creation of shareholders’ value. Therefore, the Company aims to attain a high ROE level that exceeds the cost of equity capital (currently 8%) in the medium-to-long term.
