If you bought shares in Zenith Bank Plc in 2024 and haven’t received dividends, it’s usually because E-Dividend registration has not been completed.
The easiest way to claim your dividends is to register for E-Dividend so the money goes directly to your bank account.
Here’s the simple step-by-step process:
