Q: How will I be paid my dividend match and when will I receive it?

We’ll automatically credit the extra 25% to your DBS brokerage account on a monthly basis. The dividend match will be deposited in your core account as a cash payment (GCash). Your match is paid out within 10 business days after the first day of the month following the month in which dividends were paid. The match will be credited to your core account (GCASH). Example: For dividends paid in June, your match is credited in July within 10 business days.

Q: How is the dividend match calculated?

We do the math for you for the payout. Here is how we figure it out: Step 1: We look at each group of shares you own Step 2: We check if you held those shares long enough. For most stocks and funds: You must have owned them for at least 30 days before the dividend payment date. Step 3: Your match is calculated by: Number of eligible shares × Dividend amount per share × 25% Example: You own 100 shares of a stock you bought on April 1. The company pays a dividend on May 15 — you’ve held it for 45 days → you qualify. The dividend is $1.00 per share → $100 total. We give you 25% extra → $25 credited to your account in June.

Dividend-earning stocks and funds

Dividend investing can be a popular method for generating income, but just because a stock or fund has a high dividend yield, doesn't mean its a good investment.

While high dividend yields may be appealing, experienced investors often focus on sustainable dividends — those paid by financially healthy companies with strong earnings, consistent cash flow, and a history of reliable payouts. Elevated dividend yields can come with high risk, like falling stock prices or dividend cuts.
Below are the top 5 results of a screener that identifies the highest yields of ETFs and stocks of companies with strong dividend coverage ratios, positive expected profit growth, and a few other metrics to filter out financially stressed companies.

Results below should not be viewed as a recommendation and while dividend potential may be an important consideration in an investment decision, there are many others factors you should consider before investing. Data as of 4/30/2026.
