Abstract
- The article discusses bank dividends. Dividends paid during 2006 exceeded the total of write-downs banks took in connection with credit problems. In response to diminishing capital levels several banks have cut their dividends, including Citigroup. Lower dividends aren't popular with investors, but banks may wish to conserve cash against the possibility of further write-downs.
