Dividend-oriented stocks are gaining in March as funds flow into companies expected to benefit from expanded shareholder returns and separate taxation of dividend income. Under a revised tax law, shareholders of qualifying high-dividend listed firms can opt for a single tax rate of up to 30 percent from 2026 business-year dividends, while dividend income of 20 million won or less is taxed at 9 percent. Brokers highlight financials, telecoms and holding companies as key beneficiaries.
