Frequently asked questions

• Does Selective Insurance Group pay dividends?

  • Dividend yield
  • Forward yield
  • Payout ratio

  Dividend yield: 1.91% of stock value

  Forward annual dividend yield: 2.19% of stock value

  Dividend payout ratio: 24.38% of net profits

  Selective Insurance Group has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 1.91% of its share value annually.

  Selective Insurance Group has paid out, on average, around 24.38% of recent net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.19% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), shareholders could enjoy a 2.19% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Selective Insurance Group's case, that would currently equate to about 1.52 per share.

  While Selective Insurance Group's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that the company is investing more in its future growth.

  Selective Insurance Group's most recent dividend payout was on 30 November 2025. To be eligible for the latest dividend you would need to have been a shareholder at 13 November 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
