The low yield environment across the world has driven investors to scour for any good interest rate opportunity. Traditional tools such as fixed deposits and bonds have lost their shine due to the low-interest rate environment. The highest fixed deposit rate as of June is a paltry 0.75% per annum, which barely beats inflation. An innovative way is to invest in companies that pay decent dividends. What is even better is investing in companies that grow their dividends over time. We have identified 3 such stocks that have both of these impressive features that you should take note of.
