Dividends
For 2015, Moscow Exchange’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders resolved to distribute RUB 16.2 bn of dividends (RUB 7.11 per ordinary share), which is equivalent to 58.2% of the 2015 IFRS consolidated net income.
In December 2015, the MOEX Supervisory Board approved a Dividend Policy requiring that the dividend distributions equal at least 55% of the Group’s IFRS net income.
On 27 March 2017, the Supervisory Board recommended that the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders approve the dividend payouts of RUB 7.68 per share for 2016. It is therefore recommended that RUB 17.5 bn, or 69.3% of the Group’s 2016 IFRS net income, be distributed in the form of dividends.
In 2013-2016, the dividends were paid out in accordance with the relevant dividend policies adopted by the Exchange in 2013 and 2015.
