How may the shareholder receive dividends?
Yield may be of two kinds: dividends or interests on own capital. The Dividend distribution is annual provided the company presents profits in the period and presents positive balance in the accrued profit/loss account. Interests on own capital may be distributed with a shorter periodicity than the annual one. The shareholder if current account holder of the Bank of Brazil shall receive the credits related to yields automatically in his/her current account. In case he/she is not a current account holder of the Bank he/she must go to any agency with his/her identification documents. Dividends may be received through credit in bank current account, and it is only necessary that the shareholder keeps his register data updated with the Banco do Brasil which is the depositary institution of the shares of the Group company.
