    I have bought shares from SIC in 2007, but changed my work place in 2008. Since then I have not received any dividend payment notice or any information regarding my shares. I will be grateful if I can get with regards to dividend and shares.

      You should be hot on the case! If the bank says the cheques have been cleared let them produce evidence to that effect. Bank of Ghana mandates banks to keep such records for a long time. Also require proof that the cheques were sent and delivered to your address. And make sure there is nobody somewhere in between who may have made off with the money due to your absence. All the best brother..

      The date for SIC 2019 Annual General Meeting (AGM) is yet to be determined. Typically, it is announced not more than a month before it happens which usually occurs somewhere between July and October.

    Since the the issuing of the SIC IPO, I bought 1000 shares from SAS financial company. I do not receive any information from them with regards to AGM, dividends payment et. cetera. Meanwhile, I know the company has been been paying annual dividends. What is going on?

    Question:
    I have bought three shares namely GCB, SIC and FANMILK through calbroker.
    I have been reading news papers, listening to Business news but I have not had the chance to communicate with any broker as to further feedback to what I should do.
    How do I get connected to my broker for information or advice?

    I have bought SIC shares for the past one or two months and looking at their previous track records, I have not regret of being part of the SIC shareholder.
    Question:
    Is it possible to have my name published as shareholder?

      Well, SIC as a company doesn't publicly publish a list of all their shareholders because it's quite impractical to do so since there are so many of them. They however publish the 20 largest shareholders in their annual reports in which only two individuals appear. BTW, you'd need at least 1,060,000 shares to make the list.
