HSBC Holdings Limited has issued a Dividend Currency Option Notice to its Hong Kong Overseas Shareholders Register, allowing shareholders to choose to receive dividends in HKD, USD or GBP, or a combination of these currencies. Shareholders can change their dividend currency choice by filling out the Dividend Currency Selection Form and can arrange for dividends to be deposited directly into a bank account or sent in the form of a cheque. HSBC Holdings noted that its dividends are not currently tax deductible and advised that shareholders should consult tax advisors on their tax liability. Shareholders are required to submit a completed form to the Register of Shares before the specified deadline for the last selection for the order to take effect. The company stressed that if the form is not signed correctly, it is considered invalid and the dividend will be processed according to the shareholders' past choices.
