Shareholdings in AMP Limited are managed separately to AMP products and policies. If you are an AMP customer, you will also need to notify AMP customer service of any changes. New Zealand customers can find the relevant contact details here.

    Prior to the dividend payment, a dividend record date is set. The record date is the date at which your shareholding details are captured and your entitlement to the dividend is determined. Any changes made after the record date will not appear on your dividend statement. Changes made to your banking details after record date will apply for future dividends and, if the payment fails, your payment will be reissued to your new account within 21 days.

    Share certificates are no longer issued on Australian stocks. Your dividend statement acts as your share certificate/holding statement. The statement contains essential information such as your holder number and balance of shares.

    AMP pays dividends by direct credit. You can also reinvest dividends through the dividend reinvestment plan (DRP). Access the DRP booklet and apply online by clicking on the ‘ my shareholding’ tab. Login then select ‘update your details’ and ‘dividend reinvestment plan’. If necessary, consult your financial adviser before joining. When they are declared, dividends are paid in March and September each year.

    If you don't provide your TFN or ABN (or exemption type), we are required to deduct tax from any unfranked portion of your AMP dividend at the highest marginal tax rate. AMP cannot refund tax deducted. You have to claim this tax from the Australian Tax Office when completing your tax return.

    When AMP issues a dividend, a statement is sent by post or email, based on your communication election. This statement is your tax statement.

    No, the whole of the unfranked amount of the dividend is declared conduit foreign income. No Australian withholding tax is deducted from dividends paid to non-residents to the extent that the dividend is fully franked or conduit foreign income. You will need advice from your local tax agent on how to declare any dividends in your tax return.

    Information about buying or selling AMP shares can be found on this page.

    As outlined in the DRP plan rules, any money left in your DRP account after you sell your shares is donated to a charity, determined by AMP.

    If you sold your shares between the dividend record date and the dividend payment date, and you were participating in the dividend reinvestment plan, you have received the shares from the dividend as determined on the record date. Please contact your broker about selling these remaining shares. You may also wish to consider donating the shares to charity. To do so in Australia, please visit ShareGift Australia. To do so in New Zealand, please visit Shares for Good. You will receive a donation receipt should you require one for tax purposes.

    AMP does not buy back shares. Please see our buying and selling shares section for more information about ways to sell your shares.

    The information set out below is not tax advice in relation to the specific circumstances of AMP shareholders. The information is intended as a general guide only and does not represent a complete analysis of all potential tax implications. You should consult your tax adviser as to the consequences for you and your personal situation.

    If the ONLY shares you owned at 23 December 2003 were the shares issued in the demutualisation, the cost base is calculated as follows:
     

    • The original cost base was A$10.43.
    • Post the AMP demerger (23 December 2003) the cost base was reduced to approximately A$7.39
    • Following the A$0.40 per share capital return in June 2005, the cost base was reduced to approximately A$6.99
    • Following the A$0.40 per share capital return June 2006, the cost base was, reduced to approximately A$6.59
    • Following the A$0.40 per share capital return June 2007, the cost base was reduced to approximately A$6.19.

    If you purchased AMP shares, prior to 23 December 2003, through the prelisting facility in June 1998, share purchase plans, dividend reinvestment plan, off market transfers or on market purchases, you will need to refer to your 2004 income tax return or speak to your tax adviser who prepared your 2004 income tax return. 
     

    This is because the AMP demerger in December 2003 involved cancelling in total 29.1947766% of your AMP shares. The Tax Office considers each purchase of shares as an individual parcel and it was left to the taxpayer to decide which parcel(s) of shares were cancelled to arrive at the 29.1947766% total. 


    Further information can be found at the ATO website using this link:

    https://www.ato.gov.au/Calculators-and-tools/Demergers-calculator/

    Shares purchased on market: The purchase price of your shares will be on your contract note. This price is then adjusted as necessary by the capital returns. 

     

    Shares issued under the dividend reinvestment plan: you will find the issue price on the dividend reinvestment plan page. This price is then adjusted as necessary by the capital returns. 

     

    Shares issued under the AMP rights offer: The cost base is the price you paid for those shares A$3.87 plus any incidental costs you incurred. This price is then adjusted as necessary by the capital returns.

    For information about the cost base of your HHG shares, now HGG, you need to contact Henderson Group plc at henderson@computershare.com.au.

    When National Mutual demutualised, the cost base of their shares was $1.14 on 3 October 1996. When AMP and AXA merged on 30 March 2011, the market value of an AMP share was $5.32. Please refer to the ATO fact sheet for more information.

    Unclaimed money

    If AMP has been unable to pay dividends for more than 6 years (as bank account details have not been provided), these payments may have been sent to the NSW Office of State Revenue (OSR), as required by the Unclaimed Monies Act. You can check the unclaimed monies website and follow the prompts to claim these funds via the link below:

     

    NSW Office of State Revenue (OSR) unclaimed monies website

     

    Please contact AMP Investor Relations as you may still have an active shareholding. Email shares@amp.com.au or call our office on 1800 245 500 (Australia) or +612 8364 6053 (overseas).

     

    If you held AXA shares, unclaimed dividends were sent to the Victorian State Revenue Office (SRO). To search these monies, please visit the webpage below:

     

    Victorian State Revenue Office (SRO) unclaimed monies website

    When postal mail is returned undeliviered, a shareholding is marked "lost". If after 6 years no contact has been made with AMP to update details, the shares and any outstanding dividends can be sent to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). ASIC sell the shares and the proceeds sit as unclaimed monies.

     

    You can search unclaimed money through the ASIC website at: https://www.moneysmart.gov.au/tools-and-resources/find-unclaimed-money.

     

    To claim these monies, you must complete the claim form and lodge directly with ASIC. Monies held for shares will be referenced as AMP Limited. 

    If you are unable to complete the unclaimed money form as you do not have proof of the previous address, please contact AMP Investors Relations at shares@amp.com.au or on 1800 245 500 (Australia) or +612 8364 6053 (other countries).  We will provide you with a letter to support your claim. When emailing AMP please provide the following information:

    • your full name (include both your maiden name and married name) and the name of any other people who may be linked to the shareholding
    • date of birth
    • current address and previous addresses which may be linked to the AMP shareholding
    • phone number

    Monies held by ASIC for Resolution Life Australasia, refer to Resolution Life Australasia Insurance Policies, and you should contact the customer service team on 133 731 about claiming these funds.

    If you have been contacted by a money finder offering to help you locate lost funds, this may be a result of outstanding AMP dividend payments or shares transferred to ASIC. To check these funds, you can contact ASIC on 1300 300 630 or the NSW OSR on 1300 366 016 to help you locate your outstanding money.

     

    You can also email the AMP Investor Relations team at shares@amp.com.au to find out if you have money owing.
