They have announced a special div of 30cps (been and gone) a 150 mill on market buy back and a capital return of 50cps. My understanding is that a capital return is effectively the same as a special dividend except that it is treated differently for tax purposes. Any input would be apreciated and not considered as advice. Thankyou.
