What DividendTen is
DividendTen is a data-first website for dividend calendars, benchmark yield snapshots, payout frequency tables, and visible website tables. It covers three international benchmark indices: the S&P/ASX 200 (Australia), the FTSE 100 (United Kingdom), and the Straits Times Index (Singapore).
For each benchmark, DividendTen is structured to publish a gross dividend yield snapshot, an upcoming dividend calendar showing ex-dates, record dates, and payment dates, a payout frequency breakdown showing how many companies pay quarterly, semi-annually, or annually, and a ranked yield table showing the top 10 highest-yielding constituents at the snapshot date. Each data page must show its verification status.
All data is shown directly in HTML tables on the page, making it accessible to people and readable by search engine crawlers. No login, subscription, or data download is required to access any DividendTen table.
What DividendTen is not
DividendTen is not a stock picker, portfolio builder, brokerage, or recommendation engine. The site avoids buy, sell, hold, best, and safest language throughout. Yield figures and calendar dates are presented as factual snapshots alongside explicit notes that they are not investment advice and should be verified against primary sources.
DividendTen does not provide personalised financial advice, tax advice, or legal advice. Readers in Australia should note that franking credit treatment depends on individual tax circumstances and residency. Readers in Singapore and the UK should verify withholding tax and local tax rules independently.
Why it exists
Dividend data is often scattered across exchange websites, company investor relations pages, and paid data terminals. Free, benchmark-level summaries that include ex-dates, frequency tables, and yield snapshots in a single accessible format are hard to find without a paywall or account requirement.
DividendTen organises core dividend facts in a cleaner, benchmark-focused format that serves researchers, journalists, students, and casual investors who want to understand dividend structures without navigating multiple sources.
Data quality and methodology
Each data page includes a data-as-of date so readers know when the snapshot was taken. The methodology page explains how gross yield is calculated, how calendar fields are defined, and what validation steps are applied at build time. The data sources page describes the types of primary sources used for production data.
DividendTen applies build-time validation to check for required fields, correct date formats, unique tickers within ranked lists, and correct rendering of all table data before deployment. Known limitations of the snapshot model are disclosed on the methodology page.
