are well-loved for their reliability and long track record.Investors who include blue-chip stocks within their portfolios can enjoy a good night’s sleep knowing that their investments can weather economic storms.The icing on the cake comes in the form of dividends which most blue-chip stocks pay out regularly.Income investors relish these dividends as they constitute useful passive income.Here are four attractive Singapore blue-chip stocks with dividend yields of 4.7% and above.Mapletree Industrial Trust (SGX: ME8U)Mapletree Industrial Trust, or MIT, is an industrial REIT with a portfolio of 56 properties in the US, 85 properties in Singapore, and one property in Japan.MIT’s total assets under management (AUM) stood at S$9.2 billion as of 31 December 2023.The REIT reported a commendable set of earnings for its fiscal 2024 third quarter (3Q FY2024) ending 31 December 2023.Gross revenue rose 2% year on year to S$173.9 million with net property income (NPI) inched up 0.8% year on year to S$129.9 million.However, with the number of issued units rising 4.1% year on year to 2.8 billion, MIT’s distribution per unit (DPU) slipped 0.9% year on year to S$0.0336.The REIT’s annualised distribution yield stood at 5.5%.MIT’s occupancy rate stayed healthy at 92.6% as of 31 December 2023 with a long weighted average lease expiry of 4.4 years.The industrial REIT also boasts a diversified tenant base of more than 2,000 tenants of which the largest contributes just 6% of the REIT’s gross rental income.Aggregate leverage stood at 38.6% with close to 80% of the REIT’s loans pegged to fixed rates.Keppel Ltd (SGX: BN4)Keppel Ltd is a global asset manager with expertise in sustainability-related solutions covering the infrastructure, real estate, and connectivity sectors.The group operates in more than 20 countries worldwide.Keppel reported a blowout set of earnings for 2023 with its net profit more than quadrupling year on year to a record high of S$4.1 billion.The asset manager also saw recurring income surging 54% year on year to S$773 million in 2023.Stripping out the exceptional item from the sale of its offshore and marine business, Keppel would have seen its net profit rise 6% year on year to S$885 million.The group proposed a final dividend of S$0.19, bringing total dividends for 2023 to S$0.34.Shares of Keppel offer a trailing dividend yield of 4.7%.Funds under management continued to grow, shooting up 58% year on year to a pro forma level of S$79 billion at the end of 2023 with the recent acquisition of Aermont Capital.Asset management fees also crept up 6% year on year to S$283 million.Keppel will continue to transform based on its Vision 2030 and is well-positioned to ride the S-curve of quality sustainable growth.Mapletree Logistics Trust (SGX: M44U)Mapletree Logistics Trust, or MLT, is also an industrial trust with an AUM of S$13.3 billion as of 31 December 2023.The logistics REIT owns a portfolio of

months of fiscal 2024 (9M FY2024), DPU came in at S$0.06792, up 0.7% year on year.MLT’s annualised DPU stands at S$0.09056, giving its units a distribution yield of 5.9%.The logistics REIT’s portfolio remained resilient with a strong occupancy rate of 95.9%.Rental reversion also came in positive at 3.8%.The REIT completed a total of nine acquisitions year-to-date while divesting eight properties at

2023.The industrial REIT also reported a robust positive rental reversion of 13.4% for the year.A total of four acquisitions and one development totalling S$885.3 million were completed in Singapore,
