How often a pidend is paid by an inpidual stock or fund. The most common pidend frequencies are annually, biannually and quarterly.

There are no uniform calendar dates for when pidends are paid; it depends on the inpidual company's fiscal calendar. Special or one-time pidends are not measured in terms of their frequency because they only appear sporadically.

Taobiz explains Dividend Frequency

While the pidend rate of a security (such as a common stock) may be in constant flux, the pidend frequency will rarely change.

Most equity investors are used to receiving quarterly pidends for the stocks that have instituted a pidend. Monthly pidends, although uncommon, can also be found, typically in securities or funds with extremely dependable cash flows.
