OREANDA-NEWS. The Bank's Board of Directors approved dividend payments from retained earnings for the first quarter of FY2015 at the Board of Directors Meeting held today.

As this is not a year-end payment, the Bank has approved a quarterly dividend per share to common shareholders of 4 yen, which is slightly more conservative than 4.6 yen, or 25% of the 18.4 yen annual dividend forecast.
