Dividend history

The Company offers Investors the chance to make an ethical investment in property that offers the potential for financial, social and environmental returns.
Ethical Property has paid a dividend every year for ten years, starting with 3 pence per Share in 2000 and rising to 3.25 pence per share in April 2005, and 3.5 pence in April 2010. 

Our dividend is announced each February with the release of our Annual Report.  Dividends are payable every April, following their approval at our Annual General Meeting in March. 

Dividends paid

Shareholders in Ethical Property are offered the choice to waive their dividend each year.  These go in to our "Making Waives" fund each April. The Making Waives fund was set up to allow us to explore and develop new initiatives that strengthen oru social and environmental returns. 

In the last 12 months shareholders who have opted to waive their dividend have supported the development of an ethical standard for the property industry - a partnership project with Ethical Property Foundation, a recuycling awareness programme in our centres and supported our rental hardship fund for those organisations with short-term funding problems. 

Shareholders can opt at any time to waive their dividend by contacting Capita Registrars on 0871 664 0300.
