Three private commercial banks — Mutual Trust Bank, Southeast Bank, and Trust Bank — have received formal approval from the Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC) to disburse their declared stock dividends for the financial year ended 31 December 2025.
According to regulatory disclosures filed with the Dhaka Stock Exchange yesterday, the banks are utilising these stock issuances to strengthen their capital bases in alignment with Basel III requirements and to provide the necessary fiscal cushion for future business expansion.
These regulatory clearances allow the banks to convert retained earnings into equity paid-up capital, a strategic move often preferred by lenders to maintain high capital adequacy ratios while supporting larger credit portfolios.
Mutual Trust Bank received consent to issue a 12% stock dividend. The bank’s financial performance for 2025 showed steady growth, with its consolidated earnings per share (EPS) rising to Tk3.14 from Tk2.93 in the previous year, while its net asset value (NAV) per share improved to Tk28.11.
The bank informed its stakeholders that it would soon re-fix and notify a new record date for dividend entitlement.
Southeast Bank secured the regulator’s nod for a 7% stock dividend, which complements its 3% cash dividend recommendation. The bank recorded a sharp recovery in its bottom line, with consolidated EPS jumping to Tk2.51 in 2025 from just Tk0.32 in the preceding year. Its NAV per share also rose to Tk25.74.
The bank has scheduled 4 June as the record date for the stock dividend.
Trust Bank also obtained approval for a 5% stock dividend, having already recommended an 8% cash dividend for the same period. The lender reported a consolidated EPS of Tk3.38 and a NAV per share of Tk28.52 for the year. The record date for Trust Bank’s dividend remains 11 June.
