1 Your Numbers

Your Dividend Goal

Cash paid out each year as a % of what you hold. S$100,000 at 5% pays S$5,000 a year. Use expected payouts, not past price gains.

Tax some markets keep from each dividend before you get it. Enter 0 if none applies to what you hold. Your broker or fund documents show it.

Monthly figures are yearly averages. Real payouts often come quarterly or twice a year.

What This Estimate Assumes

Compares the monthly goal you entered with the portfolio value, distribution yield and withholding rate entered. The portfolio needed assumes the same yield on a larger amount. Monthly and quarterly figures are annual averages; actual distributions can be irregular, cut, suspended or partly return of capital. Excludes platform fees, foreign-exchange costs, other taxes and changes in unit price. A higher yield can signal higher risk. This is not a REIT or security recommendation.

Before You Use This Number

Why Is The Monthly Figure An Average?

Many shares and funds pay every 3 or 6 months, or at uneven times. The tool divides yearly income by 12 to help you plan.

Does A Higher Yield Mean A Better Investment?

No. The payout rate can rise because the price fell, and payouts can be cut. Also look at business quality, debt, spreading your risk and total return.
