Afternoon all.

    Another dividends question - is it the norm for dividend payments to be rounded down?

    e.g. 457 shares, 3.4p dividend = £15.538, should I get £15.54 or £15.53?

    Thanks

    The companies' own websites are usually the most reliable for this sort of information.

    BP pay quarterly and BT twice yearly.
