Northern Trust declared cash dividends for common and preferred shareholders and approved up to $3.5 billion in future share repurchases. This supports shareholder returns, though the new plan must wait for the current one to finish.
These steps put cash in shareholders’ hands and give the company another way to return cash. That supports NTRS shareholders. The new plan is not an immediate purchase, and approval does not promise that the full amount will be spent.
