BOOK CLOSURE
When a company declares it will pay a dividend, it must set a specific date when the company will "close" its shareholder record book and commit to send the dividend to all investors holding shares as of that date. The book closure date is often used to identify the cut-off date determining which investors of record will be sent a given dividend payment.
