Dividends play an important role in rewarding shareholders but must be viewed in the broader context of the shareholders’ various needs and the business’s overall capital requirements.
In this session, we will discuss the journey of setting your family business dividend policy as the business evolves into a multi-generational family business with a wide range of shareholders. We’ll explore how to approach the process of policy development and how to address typical challenges that are related to implementation.

Key topics covered in the session will include:
