Inter Pipeline Ltd (IPL.TO) announced a 6.12% increase to its monthly cash dividend from $0.1225 to $0.13 per share.

“This marks Inter Pipeline’s thirteenth consecutive dividend increase to its shareholders,” said Christian Bayle, President and Chief Executive Officer. “This increase reflects our record financial performance, driven by significant new cash flow contributions from major organic growth projects completed on our Canadian pipeline systems, as well as the continued strong performance and expansion of our bulk liquid storage business in Europe.”

My portfolio consists of 150 shares of Inter Pipeline Ltd, which increases my annual dividends from $220.50 to $234.00, an increase of $13.50.
