Is MSCI a good dividend stock?

What the data shows. These are observations, not recommendations — see the disclaimer at the foot of the page.

  • Yield is below the market median1.36% against a median of 2.78%. A lower yield is common among companies that reinvest more of their earnings or whose shares have risen.
  • Dividend is comfortably coveredA payout ratio of 0.42 means roughly 42% of earnings go to the dividend, leaving room to keep paying through a weaker year.
  • No annual reduction on recordAcross 12 complete years of payment history, the total paid has never fallen year on year.
  • Raised for 11 consecutive yearsA long record of increases suggests both the cash generation to fund them and a management commitment to maintaining them. This figure is derived from payment history and is approximate.
