Dividend Policy

JAC Recruitment regards the return of profits to be an important management issue, to allow us to build a long-term relationship of trust with our shareholders. Our basic principle on dividend policy is to Maintain a trend of increasing dividends in line with profit growth while securing the internal reserves required to expand business in the future and to strengthen our business platform.
