An index consists of multiple companies. When a company within the index pays a dividend, it effectively reduces its share price by the dividend amount.

  • For buyers: Dividend amounts are credited to your trading account.

  • For sellers: Dividend amounts are deducted from your trading account.

At Taurex, dividend adjustments are applied daily at the opening of the trading session.
