China dividend stocks list: Best companies with high yields
Chinese dividend stocks represent a dynamic segment of Asian equity markets, featuring state-owned enterprises and private firms with growing shareholder return initiatives. They are primarily traded on exchanges including the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE), Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SZSE), and Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX). Despite regulatory evolutions, the Chinese dividend market, anchored by indices like CSI 300, offers exposure to essential sectors with improving payout disciplines.
China’s exchanges are not limited to domestic investors; they attract global capital through Stock Connect programs. The main advantages include:
- National champions: Dominant players in strategic sectors with government backing and scale advantages.
- Core industries: Banking (ICBC, China Construction Bank), energy (PetroChina), telecommunications (China Mobile), utilities (China Yangtze Power), and consumer staples (Kweichow Moutai).
- Dividend development: Increasing focus on shareholder returns, with SOEs mandated to distribute 30%+ of profits.
The banking giants ICBC and China Construction Bank exemplify this market – ICBC distributed $38B in 2022 dividends (world’s largest bank payout), while CCB maintains 5-6% dividend yields. Their shareholder returns reflect China’s financial system depth and state ownership structures. Investing in Chinese dividend stocks provides access to corporations central to the world’s second-largest economy.
Several Chinese companies demonstrate dividend consistency. PetroChina has paid dividends since its 2000 IPO, while China Mobile delivered 20+ years of uninterrupted payouts. This explains why China contributes 15% of Asia-Pacific dividends. Beyond SOEs, the market includes 3 dividend-growing sectors: renewable energy (China Longyuan Power), liquor (Kweichow Moutai with 1.5% yield), and infrastructure (China Communications Construction).
