This page covers Dividend Reinvestment Plans (DRIP) and SCRIP Dividend Schemes (SCRIP).
Dividend reinvestment is a convenient, easy and cost effective way to build your shareholding by receiving shares instead of a cash dividend.
Participating companies may offer more than one reinvestment option but usually only offer one option per dividend paid, and may change or suspend the options offered. Elections not used for a particular dividend, will be retained and applied to subsequent dividends where that option is provided.
