What sets the FTSE Highest Dividend Yield Scan apart is its emphasis on quality filtering. The scan doesn’t simply present the highest yields—it also incorporates key quantitative factors such as:

• Price-to-Earnings ratio: It is a financial metric used to evaluate the valuation of a company's stock. A high P/E could indicate that the stock is overvalued and vice versa.
• Earnings Per Share Reported: It is a key financial metric that indicates a company's profitability on a per-share basis. It shows how much profit a company has earned for each outstanding share of common stock.
• Net Profit Margin (%): It is a financial metric that shows the percentage of revenue that remains as profit after all expenses, taxes, interest, and other costs have been deducted.
