What percent of the British receive dividends from British Petroleum?
I can't tell you. I can explain why this information is not available. The British Petroleum company pays dividends to people who own their stock. Computer systems keep track of who the owners are and their addresses on a particular date, as specified by the company. The computer system does not report the citizenship of their investors. I will explain why BP is owned by many people in many countries, not just Britain: The people who own the stock generally buy their shares from another person who wants to sell their stock. The buying and selling is done by a stock broker. The BP company is listed in New York and London. This makes it very easy for a brokerage company to buy and sell shares of BP stock. With the Internet, people from everywhere in the world can buy BP stock. Some people own it and will receive dividends, and they don't even know they have the stock. This is because they buy a mutual fund which contains many stocks, one of them could be BP. Each owner of a mutual fund will own a very small part of a large group of stocks and frequently they don't know all the stocks in the group. This makes it easy for investors in the US and other countries to own stocks in foreign countries.
