RE:FFN ... Distribution Transactions still need two days for settlement so if you buy them on the 28th you will miss the ex-div day, which is the 29th, since you will be on records only on the 1st of March. If you want to buy them, do it before the 28th. By the ay, if you buy them on the last possible day, you are going to pay them quite a lot more than you would have done last week or even today...
