I look at more in a different angle. Hong Leong Finance would maintain at least 12 cents dividend if the market outlook was not too bad like what happened in 2008 - 2009. Whether Hong Leong Finance would pay more dividend depends on how much more profit it can generate from its operation and how much more they would like to expand. The arena for finance companies in Singapore is not that big. Soon enough, Hong Leong Finance would reach its limit as a finance company.
