Investor Checklist for Corporate Actions
Um von diesen Dividenden, Bonusaktien oder Rückkäufen zu profitieren, müssen Anleger die erforderlichen Aktien am spezifischen, von den Unternehmen angekündigten „Stichtag“ (Record Date) in ihren Demat-Konten halten. Da diese Termine über die Anspruchsberechtigung entscheiden, führt der Kauf von Aktien am oder nach dem „Ex-Tag“ dazu, dass man die bevorstehende Unternehmensaktion verpasst.
Wichtigste Erkenntnisse
