4 ASX 200 shares trading ex-dividend next week
Among the first shares off the ex-dividend rank is ASX 200 big four bank Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd (ASX: ANZ).

Macquarie Group Ltd (ASX: MQG) shares will also trade ex-dividend on Monday.

It's unfranked and comes in at 10 Canadian cents. The official Australian dollar equivalent will come to light on 22 November. But, for now, the current exchange rate means 10 Canadian cents is equivalent to 12 Aussie cents. The dividend will be paid on 29 November.
Finally, breaking the pattern is ASX 200 healthcare share ResMed Inc (ASX: RMD). It won't be trading ex-dividend until Wednesday.
Unlike the previous three dividends, ResMed's has been derived from the company's September quarter earnings. It's worth 4.4 US cents.
