They plan to increase their issued shares to 300m.A 9.8% increase
The utimate goal of investing is to buy low sell high;if we re-write this core equation in psychology terms it becomes buy fear sell greed.

Mmh why pay hefty dividends then ask the shareholder to contribute rights? Can't it just retain the earnings and capitalise as bonus?

Rights 1 for every 10 held. In order to be allowed to lend out more/or take more deposits, capital must be paid in cash by shareholders, not just a transfer in the books (retained earnings to capital).

BULLSHIT... Shareholders Funds not Share Capital is key... Any movement from Retained Earnings to Share Capital is perfectly acceptable...

StanChart is looking for NEW cash...

Not true: CFC did just that when it converted from a NBFI to a bank. They gave a bonus of 21 shares for every 3 held [largest in the history of NSE]
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.
