Mandatory corporate action - A mandatory corporate action is an event initiated by the
board of directors of the corporation that affects all shareholders. Participation of shareholders are
mandatory for these corporate actions. Examples of mandatory corporate actions include dividends, stock
splits, mergers, pre-refunding, return of capital, bonus issue, asset ID change, and spin-offs.
Voluntary corporate action - A voluntary corporate action is an action where the
shareholders elect to participate in the action. A response is required for the corporation to process the
action. An example of a voluntary corporate action is a tender offer. The shareholder may or may not
participate in the tender offer. Other types of voluntary actions include rights issue, making buyback
offers to the shareholders while delisting the company from the stock exchange.
Mandatory with choice corporate action - This corporate action is a mandatory corporate
action where shareholders are given a chance to choose among several options. An example is cash or stock
dividend option with one of the options as default. Shareholders may or may not submit their elections. In
case a shareholder does not submit the election, the default option will be applied.
Corporate Action Fee - For any Mandatory corporate action a processing fee of $5 will be
charged. For any Voluntary corporate action or
Mandatory with choice corporate action a processing fee of $50 will be charged.
Case 1: Client is holding shares (Short position) of a company that is paying dividends. The client is obliged to pay $3.85 as a dividend for his/her holdings. In this case client`s account will be debited with $3.85 as dividend adjustment and charged $5.00 for "Corporate Action Fee". Overall client`s account will be charged $8.85.
Case 2: Client is holding shares (Long position) of a company that is paying dividends.
The
client is entitled to receive $3.85 as a dividend for his/her holdings. In this case client`s account will
be credited with $3.85 as dividend payment and charged $5.00 for "Corporate Action Fee". Overall client`s
account will be charged $1.15.
The Dividend’s charge will be done after the Execution Date.
The Dividend payment will be done in Equity accounts only, after the Payment Date and upon receiving the
dividend by the company on behalf of the client.
Splits and reverse splits will be done following the corporate event’s Effective date.
The Declaration Date, also known as the Announcement Date, is the date when an issuer's board of directors announces a dividend distribution.
Record Date - When an issuer decides to declare a dividend, its board of directors establishes a Record Date. This is the date when a person must be on the company’s record as a shareholder to receive the dividend payment.
Once the record date is set, the ex-dividend date is set according to the rules of the stock exchange on which the stock is traded. The ex-dividend date is typically set for two business days prior to the record date (If a company issues a dividend in stock instead of cash, the ex-dividend date rules are slightly different. With a stock dividend, the ex-dividend date is set on the first business day after the stock dividend is paid out.)
Investors need to buy the dividend - paying stock at least three days before the record date, since trades take three days to settle. Since the ex-dividend date is usually set two business days prior to the record date, investors need to own the stock one day before the ex-dividend date to receive the dividend.
The Payment Date is the date when dividend checks are mailed out or credited to investor accounts.
Therefore, The Company shall apply the fees on Long positions on the Payment Date, for traders who have held the position on the record date (subject to the ex-date terms which may vary), and the Company shall apply the fees on short positions, usually on the Ex-Date, unless otherwise is applicable according to the relevant market terms and Company's discretion. The actual fees may be set and recorded in the Client's account later than the Payment or Ex-Dates.
In case of absence of any trading activity for 30 consecutive days of the Client‘s account, the Company reserves the right to charge a fixed payment (“inactivity fee”) of 30 USD (or 27 EUR for EUR based accounts) per month for CFDs accounts and 55 USD (or 48 EUR for EUR based accounts) per month for Equities accounts in order to maintain the account assuming that the Client’s account has the available funds. The status of the account shall be changed to inactive. The payment of the above mentioned amount will commence after the end of the 30th day of inactivity and will continue for as long as the activity in the Client’s trading account is absent or low (‘low’ trading activity is defined as less than 5 transactions in the last 30 days in the Client’s account). If the Client’s account is funded with less than the amount of a Inactivity fee and has been inactive, the Company reserves the right to charge a lower amount to cover administrative expenses and close the account. The company remains the right to charge the fee retroactively if any payments were omitted.
If the Client will not perform any trading activity or his trading activity will be of very low volume, as defined above, for 30 consecutive days, or if the Trader does not hold minimum funds in his/her account, as defined by the Company, the Company will close any or all open trades, and/or remove Client’s access to the account, and/or terminate this Agreement. The client will be promptly notified of the changes made in the account.
In case of absence of any trading activity for 30 consecutive days in the Client’s account, the Company may cancel any trading privileges granted to the Client. In this case the Client’s Buying Power may be equal to the Client`s equity.
