ASX Dividend Aristocrats

[burrow]

The Dividend Aristocrats are S&P 500 constituents that have increased their dividend payouts for 25 consecutive years.

Does anybody know of a similar listing for Australian listed companies?

Re: Dividend Aristocrats

No but there is a ASX listed ETF that contains international dividend aristocrats with a few Australian stocks included in the index. Stock code WDIV.

Australia has the fourth highest country weighting with 7.6%

The criteria for this ETF is for growing or stable dividends for at least 10 years.

Re: Dividend Aristocrats

Very interesting...might be worth doing some primary research.

However, I think the GFC would have cut a lot of candidates.

It did! Including the Banks.

Any idea where to get dividend info that goes back this far?

I have edited the title of this thread to indicate that the original poster is seeking Australian stocks similar to the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats.

This site has dividend info for ASX... http://www.sharedividends.com.au/

I've only been using it for a short while and have not run into any errors so far.
