The topic regularly causes emotions among private investors: Christian W. Röhl, author and investor, and Thierry Borgeat, founding partner of the investment company arvy, discuss the advantages and disadvantages of dividends in an interview with The Market.
Growth or dividends? In the opinion of Christian W. Röhl, author and asset manager in his own right, investors do not have to make this consideration when selecting stocks. It only becomes critical “when investors chase high dividend yields”. The publisher of the annual dividend study appreciates the good feeling “when money comes into the account regardless of stock market sentiment”.
Thierry Borgeat, founding partner of the investment company arvy, emphasizes the long-term benefits of the compound interest effect, which he describes as the “most powerful weapon we have as investors”. Companies that reinvest their profits over decades could experience an increase in value that would otherwise not be possible.
In the interview, Röhl and Borgeat discuss the advantages and disadvantages of dividends, explain why the emotional component should not be neglected – and name their favorite stocks for each strategy.
