BUDAPEST: Shareholders of the Budapest Stock Exchange (BSE) unanimously approved payment of a HUF 95-per-share dividend on last yearʼs earnings at an annual general meeting yesterday. The BSE will pay a HUF 514million dividend on last yearʼs HUF 520m net profit.
Dividend payments will start on June 4. This year could bring a turnaround for the BSE: share prices are rising, liquidity is growing, foreign investors are becoming more active because of improving geopolitical conditions, and the macroeconomic outlook is good, CEO Zsolt Katona said.
