Proposed dividend of €3.10 per share

At the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, the Board of Executive Directors and the Supervisory Board will propose a dividend payment of €3.10 per share. We stand by our ambitious dividend policy and plan to pay out €2.8 billion to our shareholders.

Based on the year-end share price for 2017, BASF shares offer a high dividend yield of around 3.4%. BASF is part of the DivDAX share index, which contains the 15 companies with the highest dividend yield in the DAX 30. We aim to increase our dividend each year, or at least maintain it at the previous year’s level.
