4 terms

dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP) financial

"Shares acquired through participation in a dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP)"

A dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP) is a program that automatically uses the cash dividends an investor receives to buy additional shares (or fractions of shares) of the same company instead of paying out cash. Like a snowball that quietly grows larger, it helps investors compound returns over time, increase ownership without manual trades or commission costs, and change future income streams — though dividends used are still taxable as income.

ShareMatch UK Plan financial

"Shares acquired through participation in the BP ShareMatch UK Plan"

persons discharging managerial responsibilities regulatory

"Notification of transactions of persons discharging managerial responsibility"

Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities are the key people in a company who make big decisions, like top managers or executives. Knowing who they are is important because their actions can influence the company’s success or failure, and they are often required to share information about their dealings to ensure transparency for investors and the public.

Market Abuse Regulation regulatory

"given in fulfilment of the obligation under Article 19 of the Market Abuse Regulation"

Market abuse regulation consists of laws and rules designed to prevent dishonest or manipulative practices in financial markets. It aims to ensure fair and transparent trading, so investors can trust that markets operate honestly, much like rules that keep a game fair. By reducing unfair advantages, it helps protect investor confidence and promotes healthy, efficient markets.
