Overview: ABN AMRO Bank N.V. offers a range of banking products and financial services to retail, private, and business clients both in the Netherlands and internationally, with a market cap of €13.19 billion.
Operations: ABN AMRO Bank N.V.'s revenue is primarily derived from its Personal & Business Banking segment (€4.02 billion), Corporate Banking (€3.46 billion), and Wealth Management (€1.55 billion).
Dividend Yield: 9.5%
ABN AMRO Bank's dividend yield is among the highest in the Dutch market, yet its track record of less than 10 years shows volatility, with significant annual drops. Despite a reasonable payout ratio of 50.5%, earnings forecasts indicate potential declines, raising concerns about future coverage and stability. Recent interim dividends amounted to €500 million (EUR), but given the bank's unstable dividend history and expected earnings decline, caution may be warranted for long-term investors seeking reliability.

Dividend Yield: 3.3%
Koninklijke Heijmans' dividend payments have been volatile and unreliable over the past decade, despite a low payout ratio of 30% and a cash payout ratio of 20.7%, indicating strong coverage by earnings and cash flows.

Signify's dividend yield of 6.92% ranks it in the top 25% of Dutch dividend payers, supported by a cash payout ratio of 34.2%, indicating strong coverage by cash flows. However, its dividends have been volatile over the past eight years, with an earnings payout ratio at 80.4%. Despite recent earnings growth—net income rose to €62 million in Q2 2024—the company's removal from the FTSE All-World Index may impact investor sentiment.
