NSE dividends 2026: calendar and book closure dates
Upcoming and recent cash dividends from companies listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange: the amount per share, the book closure date, the last day to buy to qualify, and the payment date. A dividend appears here only when a company notice, annual report or data page gives its date, and every row links that source. Records cover 20 companies so far.
To receive a dividend you must be on the share register when it closes. NSE trades settle three working days after the trade (T+3), so the last day to buy is three trading days before book closure, with weekends and public holidays skipped. Amounts are gross, before withholding tax. How dividends work in Kenya
