Lloyds won't be asking for government support.

[smartie6] 30/3/2020 09:07

It’s definitely a touch.
I don’t know how they could defend paying it if they try to seek government support in the future. Shameful if they pay it.

TW pulled theirs with two weeks to go so imo we need to get through this week before counting on getting it, that said I still think it's a touch and no go situation!

I suspect if they were going to pull the dividend they would have done it by now

[montyhedge] 30/3/2020 08:51

When dividend gets pulled I see 26p.

[wendsworth] 30/3/2020 08:49

mitchy : Possibly. I pulled my previous 30p order! As ever the DOW will drive the indices....and their healthcare system ain't gonna be able to cope initially.

[mitchy] 30/3/2020 08:46

Support at 30p ?

All very well but where to the Pension Funds derive income to pay to their Pension recipients

Looks like all bank dividends been knocked on the head, ECB asked them not to pay until at least October to preserve cash.

[w5amh] 30/3/2020 08:25

He may hold his shares for dividend income regardless of the share price.

[mikemichael2] 30/3/2020 08:16

Why you so obsessed with the dividend, the value of that has already gone this morning so far!!!!

[mitchy] 30/3/2020 08:06

Sterling has found some balls so maybe that's the reason.

[666james] 30/3/2020 08:06

8270...she was excellent. She told us how it is, not some clap trap rubbish from the politicians.

[mitchy] 30/3/2020 08:05

I'm genuinely amazed lloy hasn't fallen off a cliff.

Bank of Ireland cancels its dividend - RNS.

AIB - the same.

ABN AMRO to postpone dividends on the recommendation of the European Central Bank (ECB); expects loss in Q1 2020

The pressure to cancel the dividend continues. The Times:

Andrew Bailey, governor of the Bank of England, came under fresh pressure last night to put a stop to £7.5 billion of dividends due to be paid out by British banks over the next few weeks.

Agustín Carstens, head of the Bank for International Settlements — known as the central bank for central banks — called for a global freeze on dividends in the sector. On Friday the European Central Bank ordered eurozone lenders to cancel all dividends until at least October.

In an appeal for action by supervisors to ensure that lenders are equipped to push out the huge amount of extra credit needed to keep companies afloat, Mr Carstens said: “Banks should be part of the solution, not part of the problem.”
