In the face of many challenges of economic development this year, can banks balance the problem of capital adequacy with large dividends?
In this regard, Guan Xueqing, Secretary of Industrial And Commercial Bank Of China Limited(601398) chairman, said that an appropriate proportion of cash dividends and an appropriate capital adequacy ratio can not only meet the needs of cash dividends in the current period, but also help the long-term value growth of listed companies. While satisfying endogenous capital replenishment through profit retention, the bank is committed to creating return on investment for shareholders and has always adhered to a long-term and stable cash dividend mechanism, creating a high return on cash dividends for shareholders.

10 banks with a dividend yield of more than 5% are holding shares and other dividends reliable
The dividend of the banking industry has always been high. Therefore, there has always been the view that "holding bank shares for a long time only to earn dividends". The decision of dividend is usually based on the dividend rate.
According to the statistics of xingkuang, based on the closing price on March 30, 10 of the A-share listed banks have a dividend rate of more than 5%. The highest dividend yield is Bank Of Communications Co.Ltd(601328) , and the annual dividend yield of the bank in 2021 is as high as 7.7%. Followed by Bank Of China Limited(601988) , the dividend yield reached 7.25%. In addition, the dividend yield of ICBC, China Construction Bank, CITIC, Everbright and other banks exceeded 6%.
China Everbright Bank Company Limited Co.Ltd(601818) financial market analyst Zhou Maohua said that generally speaking, the dividend rate is the ratio between the annual dividend and the market price of listed companies. The higher the dividend rate, the more dividends the ordinary shareholders of the company pay, which means that the company has strong profitability, good performance and good growth in the future.
The dividend yield is more than 5%, which is generally higher than the one-year deposit interest rate, the yield of most treasury bonds and the yield of most financial products. "This shows that bank stocks still have strong investment attraction, especially for investors preparing for medium and long-term investment and prudent investors." Zhou Maohua said.
A senior analyst in the banking industry also said that for medium and long-term investments of 3-5 years, the bank dividend rate of more than 5% shows a strong attraction; But for short-term investment, stock price fluctuation is also a factor to be considered.
Banks also did not forget to take advantage of the performance conference to promote their own stocks Bank Of China Limited(601988) president Liu Jin said frankly at the performance conference that although the dividend rate and dividend rate of the bank are not too high for institutional investors, it is a stable and reliable choice under the current complex situation outside China. Similarly, for personal wealth managers and individual clients, it is also a good choice to be part of the asset portfolio.
