As global markets navigate a complex landscape of trade tensions and economic adjustments, Asian indices have shown resilience, with China’s stock markets advancing on hopes for government stimulus despite weaker-than-expected economic indicators. In this environment, dividend stocks in Asia can offer investors a measure of stability and income potential, making them an attractive option for those seeking to balance risk with steady returns.
Let’s dive into some prime choices out of the screener.

Operations: C&D International Investment Group Limited generates revenue primarily through its property development and management services, amounting to CN¥142.99 billion.
Dividend Yield: 7.7%
C&D International Investment Group’s dividend yield is among the top 25% in Hong Kong, with a payout ratio of 47.3%, indicating coverage by earnings. However, its dividend history is less stable, having been paid for only eight years with volatility noted. The recent approval of a HK$1.20 per share dividend marks a decrease from previous levels, reflecting potential caution in cash distribution strategies amid fluctuating sales performance and significant insider selling recently observed.

Dividend Yield: 9.7%
CTCI Advanced Systems’ dividend yield ranks in the top 25% of Taiwan’s market, yet its high payout ratio of 101.5% suggests dividends aren’t well covered by earnings. Despite a low cash payout ratio of 21.6%, indicating coverage by cash flows, dividend payments have been volatile over the past decade and unreliable in growth consistency. Recent affirmations include a TWD 322 million dividend distribution scheduled for July, despite declining sales and net income reported for Q1 2025.

Dividend Yield: 3.7%
Advanced Power Electronics’ dividend yield of 3.7% is below Taiwan’s top 25% dividend payers. However, a reasonable payout ratio of 58.1% and a cash payout ratio of 41.3% indicate dividends are well covered by earnings and cash flows, despite an unstable track record over the past decade. Recent Q1 results show significant growth with net income rising to TWD 171.55 million from TWD 86.35 million year-over-year, potentially supporting future payouts amidst ongoing amendments to company bylaws.
