What happens to my trading account if a company issues a dividend?

We will credit yourLogo_horizontal.pngwallet with the dividend amount on the payment date. Dividends are subject to a withholding tax and this tax is deducted at source (which means it is a tax you have to pay no matter what). For fractional positions, dividends may not be paid, depending on the size of your position. If the dividend you are due to receive is less than US$0.01 (~IDR 145), you will not receive anything (as no-one is able to pay a fraction of a cent!)
