Hello everyone I’m back to share another dividend raise with you. On Feb 7th the board of directors of BCE announced a 5% raise to its dividend. This is the fifth raise I have received since owning the stock. BCE will now pay a quarterly dividend of $0.7925 up from $0.755.
I currently own 140 shares and with this announcement my quarterly income will increase $5.25 and annually by $21.
If you own BCE then congrats on the raise fellow shareholders.
Thanks
Matthew

Congrats! We’re up to 9 so far this year and I still expect a few more to trickle in later this month. KO’s should be coming any day now too but I expect something like 3-6%.

Well done! Out of curiosity, for your LIRA, do you have the option of having the dividends paid out to you in cash or do they just show up in your LIRA as cash?

Hello, the dividends show up in my LIRA as cash. I can’t remove any money from the account until I reach a certain age. I believe 55 but I’m not 100% sure on that.
