We’re talking about businesses with cash-rich balance sheets, market-leading positions, and diverse revenue streams. There’s also a large mix of ‘old world’ stocks (like utilities and banks) that have limited growth potential, and which therefore focus on returning cash to shareholders.

The good news for investors is the dividend outlook for UK shares is looking brighter than ever. Want to know why?

Record dividends!

Despite rising uncertainty caused by the Iran war, City analysts are becoming increasingly positive about this year’s dividends. That’s according to latest research from AJ Bell.

Brokers are now expecting total FTSE 100 dividends of £88bn in 2026. That’s an increase of £2bn from predictions made three months ago.

According to AJ Bell investment director Russ Mould, “estimates suggest that 2018’s all-time high FTSE 100 dividend payment of £85.2bn will finally be exceeded in each of this year and next“.

As a result, the FTSE 100 index’s dividend yield is 3.3%, in line with the long-term average of 3% to 4%.

Is there a catch?

The problem is that developments in the Middle East mean profit forecasts for many companies are looking less secure. AJ Bell notes that “any sustained increase in oil and gas prices would be a danger, given the impact on profit margins… and also potentially revenues for many industries if consumers feel obliged to spend less on discretionary items because they are forced to lay out more to cover bills“.

On the plus side, profits estimates “are not showing any strain yet“, Mould says. In fact, some analysts have been hiking their earnings forecasts. But investors should be prepared for cuts to dividend forecasts, a risk that’s growing the longer the conflict lasts without a permanent ceasefire.

In this climate, it’s especially important to find dividend shares with durable business models and robust financial foundations. One such stock I’m considering myself right now is M&G (LSE:MNG).

A FTSE dividend star

On the downside, this FTSE 100 share’s operations are highly cyclical. When economic growth cools and inflation rises, demand for its financial services can weaken sharply. With uncertainty lingering over the Iran conflict, this is a significant danger.

But is this likely to impact the dividends investors receive? I don’t think so. This is thanks chiefly to the firm’s cash-rich balance sheet, which has underpinned dividend growth every year since 2019, when M&G shares listed on the stock market. And today, its Solvency II capital ratio remains vast at 242%, more than double what regulators demand.

The tough trading climate could hit M&G’s share price in the near term. But over a longer horizon, I expect both the company’s share price and dividends to surge as demand for savings, investment, and pension products takes off.

ISAs? I see!

What are ISAs? They are Individual Savings Accounts: tax-free vehicles wrapped around financial assets including cash, bonds, and stocks and shares. Each tax year, British adults get a new tax-free ISA allowance.

ISAs arrived in April 1999, replacing Personal Equity Plans (PEPs) and Tax-Exempt Special Savings Accounts (TESSAs) as the UK’s leading tax shelter.

This tax year started on Monday, 6 April and runs to 5 April 2027. This year’s allowance for Stocks & Shares ISA is £20,000, also the limit for 2026/27 Cash ISAs. But the latter drops to £12,000 from 2027/28 onwards.

ISAs are the #1 tool for British savers and investors to avoid tax — along with pensions, that is. All income and capital gains (profits from selling assets) are free of additional taxes inside ISAs. That’s why 15m Brits open up an ISA each year.

Some patient investors have amassed portfolios worth millions inside ISAs, safe from HMRC’s grasp. Therefore, if you and yours don’t have any ISAs, then you may pay tax unnecessarily. And nobody wants that, right?

I love income ISAs

Generally, the more people earn, the more tax they pay (except for the super-rich, who use complicated loopholes to avoid tax). For example, employees earning £100,000+ a year must pay a punitive tax rate of 62% on some of their earnings. About one in 25 (4% of workers) fall into this tax trap, which I regard as obviously unfair.

My wife and I make efforts to (legally) minimise our tax bills. Hence, I’m a big fan of putting high-yielding dividend shares inside ISAs. By doing this, the high passive income they generate goes untaxed. Also, we can reinvest it to buy yet more shares, increasing our future shareholdings. To me, this is a win-win deal.

For example, we hold M&G (LSE: MNG) shares inside an ISA. We bought stock in this FTSE 100 investment manager in summer 2023 for its bumper dividends. At the current share price of 295.8p, M&G has a market value of £7.1bn, while its shares offer a market-beating cash yield of 6.9% a year.

Though this payout beats top saving rates of around 4.5% a year, dividends are risky. Future payouts are not guaranteed, so they can be cut or cancelled with no notice. This happened often during the 2020/21 Covid-19 crisis. In addition, most London-listed shares don’t pay dividends. Some companies are loss-making, while others reinvest their profits into future growth.

That said, M&G has a solid dividend history, with its payout rising steadily from 18.3p a share for 2021 to 20.5p for 2025. Moreover, the group — founded in 1931 — has billions of pounds of spare capital on its balance sheet to support future payments to shareholders.

M&G shares are up 63.3% over one year and 35.4% over five. But when financial markets next crash, I expect M&G’s revenues, earnings, and cash flow to suffer. But those are the risks of investing in ISAs!

The post Happy new tax year! Here’s how ISAs save investors a fortune appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

M&G (LSE:MNG), Alliance Witan (LSE:ALW) and Lion Finance (LSE:BGEO) are three that have caught my attention today. Want to know what I think makes them genuine bargains to consider rather than value traps? Read on.

8% dividend yield!

Recent share price weakness has propelled M&G’s dividend yield for this year back above 7%, to 7.7%. For 2027, the yield moves to 8%. This makes it one of the FTSE 100’s most irresistible dividend stocks and high on my watchlist for when I have cash to invest.

The firm’s fallen in value as the Iran war has worsened inflationary pressures. If the conflict persists, consumer spending on discretionary financial products could drop. However, I’d still consider buying M&G shares — the long-term outlook remains robust as ever, with demographic changes tipped to drive rapid market growth.

M&G’s leading sector position puts it in great shape to supercharge earnings in this landscape. In the meantime, I expect the firm to keep paying enormous dividends, supported by its cash-rich balance sheet.

Top trust

At £12.20 per share, Alliance Witan’s dividend yield has risen to 2.4%, the highest in about a year. That’s not groundbreaking — the average yield on FTSE 100 stocks sits higher than this at 3.2%.

However, it’s an added sweetener for an investment trust that’s already looking cheap. Today it trades at a 6.1% discount to its net asset value (NAV) per share.

Like other shares-based trusts, Alliance Witan’s dropped amid broader stock market volatility. It might do again. But longer term, I’m expecting it to keep delivering juicy rewards. The average annual return here has averaged 10% over the last five years.

This reflects the trust’s huge portfolio of quality stocks. With holdings in 227 global shares spanning industries and regions, it allows investors to effectively spread risk and capture a multitude of opportunities.

Growth and dividends

Lion Finance is one of the FTSE’s most exciting bank shares in my view. It only entered the blue-chip index in late March. Like HSBC, it harnesses the enormous growth potential of emerging markets.

In this case, the company (formerly known as Bank of Georgia) provides banking services to Georgians and Armenians. Profits have grown rapidly for years, as rapid economic growth has turbocharged boosted personal wealth levels. The bank’s underlying profits soared 28% year on year in 2025.

Can it keep delivering these sort of stunning numbers, though? An extended Middle East conflict could hit earnings if regional and global growth cools. However, I think this is more than reflected in Lion’s rock-bottom valuation.

The forward P/E ratio is 5.6 times. A 3.8% dividend yield provided a tasty bonus. I’m optimistic the bank will keep going from strength to strength.

That makes it worth beating that deadline, which is just days away on Sunday 5 April. Yet many will be understandably nervous, with markets rattled by the conflict in Iran. What should investors do?

Income-friendly tax wrapper

It pays to keep a cool head today. Stock market turbulence is nothing new. We’ve seen several sharp sell-offs in recent years, due to Covid, the Ukraine conflict, and US trade tariffs. Each time markets quickly recovered.

The latest shock may be worse. We just don’t know. But over the long term, markets have always recovered to reward patient investors.

If concerned, one option is to drip-feed cash into shares over the weeks ahead, to smooth out the ups and downs. Investors can put money into their Stocks and Shares ISA before the deadline to secure their allowance, and decide what to invest in later. 

For those willing to take a bit more risk in search of income, one FTSE 100 stock stands out to me right now: wealth manager M&G (LSE: MNG).

I wouldn’t call it a defensive play though. The shares have fallen around 15% over the last month. That’s almost twice the drop seen by the FTSE 100.

But M&G was performing strongly before this latest wobble. Even after the recent dip, the shares are still up roughly 30% over one year and 50% over three. That’s a strong return, with some juicy dividends lifting the total return towards 75%.

M&G shares also grow

The trailing dividend yield currently sits at a juicy 7.5%. That said, high yields always come with a health warning. Sometimes they signal trouble. In M&G’s case, the business looks broadly stable, with improving inflows and a strong capital position. But it’s not risk-free.

Profits have been a little underwhelming, and the group needs to keep attracting new customers and growing assets under management to maintain momentum. A prolonged market downturn could hit sentiment and slow customer inflows, which could put pressure on future shareholder payouts.

Valuation is another consideration. The price-to-earnings ratio is around 22, which isn’t especially cheap, so it isn’t an obvious bargain across the board. Still, I think M&G is worth considering for long-term income investors. The dividend looks reasonably well supported, and the company has opportunities to expand, particularly in areas like retirement products. As part of a diversified portfolio, I think it has its place. I hold it myself.

There are plenty of other high-yielding FTSE 100 shares out there, some of which offer even better value. Today’s volatility is a good time to consider buying them. Don’t expect to catch the exact bottom, but balance the risks by feeding in money over both the ups and the downs. I can see plenty more high-yields shares worth chasing today.

The post 1 ultra-high-yield UK dividend stock to consider buying before the 5 April ISA deadline appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

In pole position

At 9%, Legal & General‘s (LSE:LGEN) the Footsie’s highest yielder. In 2025, the insurance, pensions, and asset management group reported a 6% rise in its core operating profit to £1.62bn. In addition, assets under management (AUM) increased by 5% to £1.2trn.

Looking ahead to 2026, the group expects its earnings per share to grow at the top end of its 6%-9% annual target.

One area to keep an eye on is its balance sheet. During the year, its Solvency II ratio fell from 232% to 210% (the regulatory minimum is 100%). And given recent events, I’m sure the £235bn of equities that the group directly owns have taken a bit of a hit.

However, it last cut its payout during the global financial crisis in 2009. Importantly, its pension risk transfer arm continues to secure plenty of large schemes to manage. This should aide further dividend increases and, in my opinion, makes it an income stock to consider.

Same but different

Retirement specialist Standard Life (LSE:SDLF), which recently changed its name from Phoenix Group, expects an impressive £155m (16.4%) year-on-year improvement in adjusted operating profit for 2026. It’s also hoping to generate £500m of free cash.

Positively, analysts are also forecasting a 9% increase in its payout by 2028 compared to 2025. It’s currently yielding 8.3%.

With 12m UK customers – one in five adults — it’s particularly sensitive to a domestic economic slowdown. If incomes are further squeezed pension contributions are likely to be one of the first casualties. Its margin could also come under pressure.

However, since its formation in 1825, it’s survived many more challenging times. And it’s operating in a growth sector. The £3.6trn UK retirement income and savings market’s expected to grow to £6.1trn by 2034. This should help it deliver the earnings and dividend growth that make it, I believe, a share worth considering.

Last, but not least

M&G (LSE:MNG) had a great 2025. During the year, the wealth manager reported £7.8bn of net cash inflows compared to outflows of £1.9bn in 2024. Along with some impressive investment returns, this boosted its AUM from £345.9bn to £375.9bn. It also lifted its Solvency II ratio from 223% to 242%.

This improved financial performance helped deliver a 2% increase in the group’s full-year dividend. Its annual payout’s been increased every year since its demerger from Prudential in 2019.

Threats to its dividend include increased competition plus lower income than anticipated from its huge investment portfolio. However, 2026’s expected to be another good year, making the dividend look reasonably secure for now. Along with its 7.4% yield, it’s an income stock to take a close look at.

Huge potential

Of course, dividends can’t be guaranteed. However, all three have strong track records of delivering impressive levels of income.

And by reinvesting the cash it’s possible to create significant long-term wealth. For example, a £15,000 investment (£5,000 in each) could grow to £107,590 after 25 years. At this point, a yield of 8.2% would deliver annual income of £8,822.

That’s why dividend shares are so popular with UK investors.

With a new tax year approaching, now’s a good time to start thinking about which stocks to pick. But first, let’s see how much an ISA investor could have earned in the 2025-2026 tax year.

Super growth

The FTSE 100‘s typically delivered around 7%-10% a year over the long term, but since last April it’s up almost 30%. That means a full ISA allowance put into an index tracker would be worth around £26,000 now — £6,000 of profit, all tax‑free inside the ISA.

Investors who focused on big winners such as Fresnillo, Endeavour Mining or Airtel Africa would likely have beaten that, while more conservative choices might have lagged. But it’s fair to say that type of growth’s rare and there’s no guarantee it’ll happen again.

To prepare for years of slow growth, it pays to also hold some strong dividend-paying stocks like Legal & General, Standard Life or M&G (LSE: MNG).

A well-diversified portfolio could achieve a 7% average yield plus 3% capital growth — roughly a 10% total return. On £20,000, that’s still a decent £2,000 return, again sheltered from tax thanks to the ISA wrapper.

The best of both worlds

M&G’s a nice example of a stock that ticks both boxes. Over the past year, its share price is up about 21.8% and it has a dividend yield of 7.5% – equating to a near-30% total return. It’s both an asset manager and a life insurer, earning fees on hundreds of billions of pounds of client money while also running long‑term savings and retirement products.

Recent results showed adjusted operating profit of £838m and a very strong Solvency II coverage ratio of 242%. That gives it a healthy buffer against market wobbles. Plus, the total dividend was raised 2% to 20.5p per share, in line with its progressive dividend policy. That’s exactly the sort of steady income profile ISA investors often look for.

At the same time, management’s pushing a ‘capital‑light’ growth strategy. This means shifting more earnings towards fee‑based asset management. That could help take pressure off the balance sheet over time.

So is M&G the best stock to consider for an ISA this year?

Lots of options

M&G certainly looks good right now but still faces risks. A prolonged market downturn would likely hit assets under management and fee income. Plus, it faces execution risk as it simplifies the business and chases cost savings in a very competitive industry.

The dividend yield’s the core attraction, but it still depends on future profits and regulatory capital to avoid being cut or reduced. That’s why diversification’s so important – to avoid heavy losses in one area.

Whichever stocks you prefer, a Stocks and Shares ISA is considered a sensible way for UK investors to grow wealth over time. The twin benefits of tax‑free compounding and the freedom to manage your own portfolio make it an increasingly popular choice.

The post £20,000 invested in a Stocks and Shares ISA over the last year is now worth… appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

It is a hybrid asset manager and life insurer, generating chunky, recurring cash flows from fees, annuities, and with‑profits business. And it consistently returns a large portion of all that to shareholders.

So how much could I make from the stock?

Consistent high-yielding gem

M&G’s focus on rewarding shareholders was formalised last year with the adoption of a ‘progressive dividend policy’. Such a policy involves payouts rising at least in line with earnings per share but not being reduced if earnings decline.

Even before that, from 2020 to 2025 alone, dividends rose 12% from 18.23p to 20.5p. These delivered respective average annual dividend yields of 9.2%, 9.2%, 10.4%, 8.9%, 10.2%, and 7.2%. By comparison, the current FTSE 100 average dividend yield is just 3.1%.

M&G’s 2025 payout of 20.5p gives a present dividend yield of 7.5%. However, much more is to come according to analysts.

Rising dividend forecasts

Earnings growth is the key driver for any firm’s dividends (and share price) over the long run. A risk or M&G is intense competition in its sector that may squeeze its margins over time. Another is any sustained spike in the cost of living that may prompt clients to close accounts. However, analysts forecast that its earnings will grow 22% a year to end-2028.And the projections are fordividend rises to 21.1p this year, 21.9p next year, and 22.9p in 2028.

These will generate respective annual dividend yields of 7.7%, 8%, and 8.4% — among the highest in any major FTSE stock.

How much dividend income?

Failing any problems, my £20,000 holding in M&G would make me £226,399 after 30 years. This is the end of a standard long-term investment cycle — starting with first investments around 20 and ending in early retirement options around 50.

The numbers are based on the average 8.4% forecast yield, although this can change over time. It also features the dividends being reinvested to harness the turbocharging power of ‘dividend compounding’.

After 30 years, the value of my holding (including the £20,000 initial investment) would be £246,399. And this would be paying me an annual income (from dividends) of £20,698!

Share price gains too?

A discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis identifies where a stock should trade by projecting future cash flows and discounting them back to today.

Some analysts’ DCF modelling is more bearish than mine depending on the variables used. However, based on my DCF assumptions — including a 9.4% discount rate — M&G shares are 58% undervalued at their current £2.73 price.

This suggests a ‘fair value’ of around £6.50 — more than double where the stock trades today.

And because asset prices can trade towards their fair value in the long run, it suggests a potentially (if not guaranteed) superb buying opportunity to consider today if those DCF assumptions hold.

My investment view

M&G’s strong earnings prospects should drive its share price and dividends much higher over time. Consequently, I will buy more of the shares very soon.

I also believe the firm merits the attention of other long-term investors seeking high long‑term passive income.

The post An 8.4% forecast yield but down 16%! Time for me to buy more of this FTSE 100 passive income star? appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

Is this a once-in-a-decade chance for income investors? In a word, no. As economic and political conditions become less certain, stock market corrections and crashes are becoming more frequent.

But this doesn’t mean investors shouldn’t strike when volatility comes along. Let me explain, as well as reveal one of the FTSE 100‘s hottest dividend shares right now: M&G (LSE:MNG).

High-yield FTSE hero

At 274.8p, M&G’s share price has slumped 8% in value. This makes it the fifth-worst-performing share on the FTSE.

Has the market overreacted by sending its shares sharply lower? Perhaps not — after all, as a savings and investment products provider, it stands to lose if inflation soars and interest rates are hiked. This is a very real possibility if the Middle East conflict continues, threatening consumer spending on discretionary financial services.

But is this likely to damage the dividends paid on M&G shares? I’m highly doubtful. After all, the company continued to raise dividends even during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. And as a keen income investor, this is incredibly attractive to me. Annual payouts have indeed risen every year since M&G joined the London Stock Exchange in 2019.

M&G has its robust cash generation and deep capital reserves to thank for this. And today its balance sheet is as cash-rich as it’s ever been. As of December, its Solvency II ratio was a sector-leading 242%.

This is almost two-and-a-half times the regulatory minimum. It’s also up from 223% just 12 months earlier.

A 7.7% dividend yield

Just as a rising tide lifts all boats, recent stock market volatility has pushed dividend yields higher across the FTSE 100. What strikes me about M&G shares, though, is the size of the dividend yield now that its share price has fallen.

At 7.7%, it’s yield is the third-highest on the Footsie for 2026. Only Legal & General and Standard Life shares beat it on this front, but as I say, M&G has stronger financial foundations, making it potentially a more secure dividend pick.

M&G is a high-quality business with excellent growth potential as financial services demand rises. It has also proved itself adept in less-favourable market conditions — it registered £7.8bn of net inflows last year as both its Asset Management and Life divisions outperformed. That was a £10bn year-on-year improvement.

I don’t think the firm’s resilience or its long-term growth prospects are reflected in its rock-bottom price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio. This is just 9.9 times on a forward basis, and — combined with that dividend yield — makes M&G shares an excellent value stock to consider. Buying quality shares like this when they fall could seriously boost one’s second income.

The post Is this a once-in-a-decade opportunity to target a second income? appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

With a patient attitude, doing that can lead to substantial income streams over time.

For example, say someone had a £20k Stocks and Shares ISA and wanted to target £390 of dividend income per week. Here’s how they could ultimately aim for that goal.

A long-term approach can be powerful

£390 per week adds up to £20,280 per year. That is more than the contribution allowance for the ISA, so it may not seem realistic.

However, time can be the investor’s friend.

Rather than taking out dividends as passive income straight away, reinvesting them (known as compounding) can help build up a bigger potential source of dividends over time.

For example, if an investor can grow their Stocks and Shares ISA at a compound annual rate of 7% over 40 years, it will then be large enough that a 7% dividend yield would produce over £390 per week on average in dividends.

Of course, a 40-year timespan is a long wait even for sizeable passive income streams. The same plan could work on a shorter timeframe, but the target income would be correspondingly smaller.

Aiming for success

Is a 7% compound annual growth rate realistic? I think so, as it includes dividends and also capital gains, albeit capital losses would eat into the return achieved.

What about a 7% dividend yield? In today’s market I think that is achievable even when sticking to proven blue-chip businesses.

Another factor to consider is costs and fees such as commissions and annual charges levied by an investing platform provider.

Over time they could add up. That means it pays to take time when selecting the right Stocks and Shares ISA. Even for an existing ISA holder, the upcoming annual contribution deadline means some providers are offering promotions that could make it worth checking out the market to compare possible alternatives.

One share to consider

At the moment, one income share I think merits investors’ consideration for its long-term dividend prospects is asset manager M&G (LSE: MNG).

The share yields 7.5%, so if someone invested today, hopefully they would earn that yield in coming years.

In fact, they could do better, as M&G has what is known as a progressive dividend policy, meaning it aims to increase its payout per share each year. It has done that over the past few years.

Things could go the other way, though. No dividend is ever guaranteed (which is one reason it always makes sense to diversify a Stocks and Shares ISA across different shares).

One risk to the M&G payout is policyholders pulling money out due to volatile market conditions, hurting earnings. In the current market environment, with a lot of geopolitical volatility, that risk is on my mind.

Still, from a long-term perspective, M&G’s proven business model, large customer base, and deep experience in asset management are all assets that could help keep it doing well.

The brand is well-known and well-respected and millions of investors are customers. That makes for what I see as an attractive business.              

The post £390 of income a week from a £20k Stocks and Shares ISA? Here’s how! appeared first on The Motley Fool UK.

When I first added it, the yield was hovering around 10%. That made me a little wary. Ultra-high yields can be a warning sign. They’re often driven by a falling share price, and can point to a value trap or an unsustainable payout.

So I did my due diligence, digging into M&G’s balance sheet, capital strength, cash flows and track record of rewarding investors, and decided to go ahead. Its dividend history is relatively short, given it only demerged from Prudential in 2019, but it looked good enough for me.

M&G shares give me income and growth

I went in big and so far, my conviction has paid off. Lately though, there’s been a wobble. Hardly surprising given global events. The M&G share price has fallen 15% in the last month. That’s a short-term blow for my SIPP, but is it also a long-term buying opportunity?

I’m still well ahead. Despite the setback, M&G shares are up 26% over 12 months and 52% over three years. With dividends reinvested, I’m sitting on a total return of around 75%.

Full-year results, published on 12 March, were mixed but not disastrous. Net inflows hit £7.8bn, reversing last year’s £1.9bn outflow. Assets under management (AUM) rose 8.7% to £376bn. Its Solvency II capital coverage ratio improved from 223% to 242%.

Headline profits were less impressive, edging up just £1m to £838m. However, IFRS profit after tax did swing from a £347m loss in 2024 to a £314m profit. The market response was muted, and the shares have since drifted lower. Investors seem to think current volatility could undo those improving inflows and AUM figures. The next few weeks or months could be bumpy.

FTSE 100 opportunities

The recent share price surge shrank the dividend yield. Now it’s climbed back to 7.5%. The board has a progressive dividend policy, but it’s worth pointing out that future increases are likely to be modest at around 2% a year. The stock also looks a bit pricier than it did. Its price-to-earnings ratio has crept above 22. So I wouldn’t call it a screaming bargain.

If the Iran conflict triggers a bigger market sell-off, M&G is likely to fall further. A prolonged downturn could even put pressure on the dividend. Also, M&G needs to keep expanding into new areas to sustain growth. It has a big opportunity in bulk purchase annuities, and has boosted inflows into its flagship PruFund range. But it needs to keep winning new customers and striking new deals to keep the revenues flowing.

I still think it’s worth considering for long-term income-focused investors. They might prefer to drip-feed money in to take advantage of today’s volatility. The only thing holding me back is that I already have such a big stake, and should probably diversify instead. I can see plenty of attractive income opportunities on the FTSE 100 today. And some look a lot cheaper than M&G.
