ING Canada Inc. announced today that holders of its common shares and prospective investors can now reinvest their dividends in additional shares through a dividend reinvestment plan administered through the company’s transfer agent or via the co-operative investing service operated by Canadian ShareOwner Investments Inc. Dividend reinvestment purchases under either alternative will be made free of commissions.

Shareholders should contact their broker directly to enrol in the plan and to obtain full details of their broker’s relevant administrative practices and charges, if any, ING said in a release. Some brokers may require their clients to hold a minimum number of shares to participate in the plan, ING said.
