In this episode, we have podcast director, Tim , in the hot seat alongside Kernel Founder and CE, Dean Anderson to explore why New Zealand has such a strong dividend culture, and whether chasing dividend yields is the best strategy for long-term wealth building.
With NZ companies paying out 82.5% of post-tax income as dividends (compared to the global average of 47.6%), we'll examine if this high-yield approach helps or hinders investors.
Key Questions Discussed:
- Why are dividends so popular in New Zealand?
- Do high dividend payouts limit company growth?
- What's better: reinvesting dividends or taking cash?
- How do imputation credits affect dividend investing?
- Is dividend investing the best way to generate passive income?
Plus much more! Tune in now for more
Here's the research mentioned in the podcast: Should Companies Pay High Dividends?
