FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

How Does a Raymond James Financial Share Split Work?

A Raymond James Financial stock split is no different than any other stock split. Raymond James Financial is simply packaging the number of outstanding shares in a different way. For example, in a 2-for-1 split, the amount of shares will double (and the price will be divided by 2, accordingly). Say you have 100 shares of Raymond James Financial, then the day of the split you will receive 2 shares for every 1 share you hold in your brokerage account, meaning you will receive 200 shares on the stock split date. However, the price of the stock will reflect this change and your holding of Raymond James Financial (in terms of value) will remain practically the same.

Benefits of a Raymond James Financial Stock Split?

A stock split does not change the fundamental value of a company. Meaning a Raymond James Financial stock split will not make the business more valuable.
