3 Dividend Stocks Paying Over 6% Income Investors May Want To Watch

With oil prices staying elevated as Strait of Hormuz shipping talks remain “very close” but unresolved, income from cash dividends can feel more reassuring than price swings. High yield, well covered dividend stocks offer a way to earn ongoing cash flow while markets debate the next move in rates and energy. This article highlights three Dividend Powerhouses from our 3%+ Yield screener that stand out today.

The three stocks covered below are just a starting sample, since the full Dividend Powerhouses screen surfaced 43 more companies with equally compelling income stories that are not included here. To identify ideas that fit your yield and quality criteria, head straight into the Dividend Powerhouses (3%+ Yield) screener.

MONY Group (LSE:MONY)

MONY Group runs some of the UK’s best known price comparison and consumer finance sites, helping households find deals on insurance, money products, energy, travel and everyday spending, while also operating cashback and B2B comparison platforms. The business is heavily weighted to Insurance, which brings in about £236.9 million of revenue, with further contributions from Money at £110.5 million, Cashback at £49.3 million and Home Services at £54.8 million. At a market value of roughly £1.0b, MONY Group sits in the mid cap bracket of the UK market.

Investors looking for dividend income may find MONY Group worth a closer look. The company combines a 6.25% yield with a high return on equity near 39% and resilient net margins around 18%, supported by a cluster of well known digital brands and growing member propositions such as SuperSaveClub and rewards schemes. At the same time, higher paid marketing spend, pressure from lower margin B2B contracts and a slower paying revenue mix in areas like energy create real risks to future profitability and cash generation. How those strengths and pressures play out next, including after the recent buyback and small dividend increase, is what makes MONY Group such an interesting income story to track.

High yield, strong return on equity and 18% net margins suggest that the MONY Group story is not fully reflected in the headline yield. Get the full picture in the analysis report for MONY Group

Foresight Group Holdings (LSE:FSG)

Foresight Group Holdings is a London based asset manager focused on infrastructure, renewable energy and private equity, providing both growth capital and buyouts across the UK, Europe and Australia. The business leans most heavily on Real Assets, which generate about £114.8 million of revenue, with a further £50.1 million from Private Equity. At a market value of roughly £551.8 million, Foresight Group Holdings sits in the UK mid cap bracket.

Income investors may find Foresight Group Holdings interesting because it sits at the junction of infrastructure, renewables and private equity, where fee based revenue and performance fees can both drive cash generation. Earnings, net income and EPS all moved higher in the year to March 2026, while net margins sit near 27.7% and return on equity is very high at 47.8%. At the same time, the company leans on higher risk external borrowing, depends heavily on UK and European policy for renewables and faces fee pressure from larger global managers and cheaper passive options. Share buybacks, disciplined director pay and experienced governance add to the appeal. The key consideration for dividend focused investors is how fee growth, fundraising and capital returns fit together.

Foresight Group Holdings sits at the crossroads of infrastructure, renewables and private equity, yet many investors still treat it like a plain vanilla asset manager. See how fees, fundraising and distributions stack up in the analysis report for Foresight Group Holdings

Multitude (LSE:0R4W)

Multitude is a digital lender and online banking group that offers consumer and SME loans, revolving credit, and everyday banking products such as savings accounts and payment cards, primarily in Finland but headquartered in Zug, Switzerland. Most of its revenue comes from Consumer Banking at about €105 million, with SME Banking contributing around €15 million and Wholesale Banking about €12 million. At a market value of roughly €116 million, Multitude sits firmly in the small cap bracket.

Income focused investors may find Multitude interesting because it combines strong historical earnings growth with a double digit net margin near 15.5% and a share price that currently sits well below one independent estimate of fair value. At the same time, this is a non bank lender that relies entirely on higher risk external borrowing rather than customer deposits, faces an uneven dividend record and has recently seen quarterly earnings fall. Together, these factors raise questions about resilience in tougher credit conditions. The plan to redeem €50 million of subordinated notes and management’s ambition for strong profit growth in 2027 and 2028 provide a clear test of whether today’s discount is a long term opportunity or a value trap waiting to be proved wrong.

Multitude’s earnings story and planned profit push into 2027 and 2028 could be masking a far more interesting trajectory. See how the analyst forecasts for Multitude ties into funding costs, asset quality and what might come next.
