    ALMOST half of Singapore's primary-listed stocks with a capitalisation greater than S$1 billion have dividend yields above 3 per cent, data from the Singapore Exchange showed on Monday.

    The figure, based on data as at June 9, 2017, for so-dubbed "billionaire stocks", reflects a higher ratio than in the Asia-Pacific and the United States, said SGX.
