However, with UOB's downbeat earnings outlook, IHS Markit is expecting the lender to suspend its special dividend in fiscal 2020, which has consistently been S$0.20 from a historical perspective.
For Singapore's real estate sector, total dividend distribution is projected to fall by 6.1 per cent year on year to US$2.5 billion, from US$2.7 billion the year before. In the Asia-Pacific, IHS Markit is projecting a 2 per cent drop in aggregate dividends to US$534.9 billion in 2020, from US$546.6 billion a year ago. The region's year-on-year growth momentum is predicted to dampen from 5 per cent in early-January to negative growth in May, based on current estimates.
Mainland China, Japan and Hong Kong are the region's largest dividend contributors. Mainland China is forecast to replace Japan as the largest dividend-paying market in 2020, despite any drag on dividend growth caused by the novel coronavirus pandemic. It is anticipated to distribute aggregate dividends of US$128.1 billion in 2020, up 4.4 per cent year on year in US dollar terms, or 7 per cent in yuan.
