It’s one way we share our success with our members and help them grow forward. Owners’ Dividend Criteria These three criteria contribute to Owners’ Dividend payouts for personal and business ESL members: Combined average monthly balances continue to be a part of what determines your Owners’ Dividend payout. And practically every ESL checking, savings, and loan product for personal and business banking qualifies! Have an ESL Wealth Management relationship? Your Owners’ Dividend will reflect that since the criteria includes payouts for ESL Members who have a relationship with either ESL Investment Services, LLC, ESL Trust Services, LLC, or Cooper/Haims Advisors. Card Transactions are included! The greater the number of transactions you make using your ESL Debit, Credit, or HSA Debit Card for purchases in store and/or online, the greater your Owners’ Dividend payout could potentially be. How Owners’ Dividend is Calculated Using these criteria, here is how the Owners’ Dividend payout is calculated: We add the average monthly balance from January 1 – December 31 from share accounts to average monthly outstanding loan balances from January 1 – December 31 and multiply that by an Owners’ Dividend factor. We add the number of ESL Credit, Debit, and HSA Card transactions made from January 1 – December 31 and multiply that by a Dividend factor. Members with a Wealth Management relationship with ESL Investment Services, ESL Trust Services, or Cooper/Haims Advisors will receive an additional amount added to their Dividend payout.
