Corporate actions are events a publicly traded company initiates that may affect its securities. Examples include dividend payments, stock splits, mergers, spin-offs, rights issues and tender offers.
Mandatory corporate actions are handled automatically. Voluntary corporate actions are not offered by Capital.com. Instead, we apply a cash adjustment to reflect any price dilution in the underlying stock.
How we handle each event depends on our liquidity providers, market practice, data providers and operational support available at the time.
