What Is an Ex-Date?

The ex-date is the date from which a stock starts trading without the benefit of a declared corporate action such as a dividend, bonus issue or stock split.

Investors generally need to purchase shares before the ex-date to become eligible for the announced entitlement.

What Is a Record Date?

The record date is the cut-off date set by a company to identify shareholders eligible to receive benefits such as dividends, rights entitlements, buybacks or stock split benefits.

Only investors whose names appear in the company’s records on the record date are considered eligible for these corporate actions.
