UOB Just Raised Its Dividend. Here's Why the Yield Actually Fell đŚ
đ The Angle
I spotted the uncomfortable contradiction: UOB raised its interim dividend, but the trailing income picture still weakened. The 88-cent payment is not the problem. The trailing twelve-month window quietly replaces a higher final dividend with a lower one, so the headline improvement does not carry through to the annual income base.
đ° What It Means For You
For every S$100,000 invested at S$43.30, the ordinary trailing income is roughly S$3,670 a year. That is a 3.67% yield, below this framework's 4.7% retirement hurdle, even though capital remains strong at 15.4% CET1. Iggy's Forensic Zone: Zone 4-, Compound Miss.
