What is a share dividend? 

A dividend is a distribution of a portion of a company's earnings to its shareholders. In other words, companies provide dividends as a way to share their profits with shareholders.

It is by offering dividends that companies reward shareholders for investing in their business and provide an incentive to hold onto their stock. This practice also helps attract new investors seeking stable returns on their investments.

Companies give dividends to demonstrate financial stability and confidence in their future growth prospects. Dividends can also serve as a signal to the market that a company is performing well and generating consistent profits. Dividends can also contribute to a steady income stream for investors, especially those looking for passive income or retirement planning.

Dividends play a crucial role in the financial ecosystem by fostering investor confidence, attracting new shareholders, and providing a reliable income source.
