newbie here, the MBB's Final Dividend (with Dividend Re-Investment Plan/ DRIP) is an option or its mandatory? what im asking is can we choose to have the dividend rather than to take up the DRIP?

Hi all, this is my first time getting DRP. Is there any news yet on how to go about applying for DRP shares? Any URL that I need to check out?

Based on here: https://www.maybank.com/en/investor-relatio...nd-history.page, seems like DRP price is RM7.80.

Thanks.

is it worth the DRP at 7.80?

Depending on the current share price and dividend received, it may be that the "benefits" are not high to do the DRP. Or indeed the cost may be larger compared to if you just buy the share as normal.

The cost of doing DRP is rm13. I think my paper gain from doing DRP is only rm20 ish. Nett gain around rm7 to8. This number based on last friday closing price of rm8.10. If anything lesser... buying the new shares on own is cheaper

Buying new shares will be rm8 for me via hlebroking.

But this really depends on the persons's holdings quantity. If i have more shares, the answer would have been a good yes. Because the cost is still fixed to rn13

Im using rakuten trade, and on maybank website the DRP price is RM7.80 per unit but when i re-calculate back in Rakutan trade the price is RM8.00.... anyone know whats is the reason? Apparently Rakutan does not charge admin fees for corporate action.... so im wondering what r the fees involved?

My best guess is that your drp electable portion of the dividend is not sufficient for flat number of shares and it got rounded down, eg RM80 dividend/RM7.80 = 10.25... shares, round down to 10 shares
You will receive the remainder in cash
