Sixty percent (60%) of the declared dividend is allocated based on members' loan repayment activities during the financial year (January - December).
This portion rewards members whose borrowing activities generated income for the Cooperative through interest payments.
Eligible Loan Types
Loan repayments made under any of the following facilities qualify:
Long-Term Loan (LTL)
Short-Term Loan (STL)
Asset Finance (AF)
Eligible Amount
The calculation is based on the total amount repaid, comprising:
Principal Repayment
Interest Paid
Calculation Method
Each eligible member receives a proportion of the Loan Dividend Pool based on the value of their total loan repayments compared to the total loan repayments made by all eligible members.
Formula
Member's Loan Dividend
= (Member's Total Loan Repayment ÷ Total Loan Repayment of All Eligible Members) × Loan Dividend Pool
Example
Assume:
Total Dividend Declared = ₦10,000,000
Loan Portion (60%) = ₦6,000,000
Total Loan Repayment by all Members = ₦1,200,000,000
Member A repaid a total of ₦6,000,000 (Principal + Interest).
Loan Dividend: (₦6,000,000 ÷ ₦1,200,000,000) × ₦6,000,000 = 0.005 × ₦6,000,000 = ₦30,000
Member A therefore earns ₦30,000 from the Loan Dividend Pool.
