Legal disclaimer
The market closure previous to the ex-date for the shares which make up the index, are paid/charged proportionally to the dividends within the index as to whether an account is long/short in an index. The dividends are reflected as a cash adjustment in the trading account as calculated by the relevant calculation agent. Various websites offer free information, or information for a fee, regarding ex-date dates. It is the responsability of the trader to search for this information if they wish to know when to expect said adjustments. By way of example, there is information available on the web about the ex-dividend dates for the shares included in the indexes UK100, NDX or WS30.
In the GDAXI the divendeds are reinvested, therefore dividends are not charged/paid, but rather a tax of 7% is applied. The majority GDAXI dividends take place in May.
In the event of the dividend charge causing the account's available margin to fall below 50%, the relevant stop-outs will be executed. It is the trader's responsibility to maintain the necessary margin level so that there are no stop-outs as a result of dividend charges.

Legal disclaimer
At market closure previous to the ex-date dividends are paid/charged depending on whether the account is long/short on a share. A 15% withholding tax is applied to dividend payments for long positions. The ex-date is the first day that when buying the share there is no right to the dividend. If you sell on that day, then the right to the dividend stays intact.
In the event of the dividend charge causing the account's available margin to fall below 50%, the relevant stop-outs will be executed. It is the trader's responsibility to maintain the necessary margin level so that there are no stop-outs as a result of dividend charges.
When there is a corporate event for a share offered at Fortresscapital which affects the share certificates, such as splits, mergers, acquisitions etc. Fortresscapital reserves the right to adjust the trader's account in consequence of such events.
Fortresscapital reserves the right to stop offering a share without prior notice, mainly due to changes in market conditions or corporate actions. In the case of corporate actions, a client's position may be closed without prior notice.
