  • How Much Annual Income 1,000 Shares of FTSE 100’s Top Dividend Payer Generates
    June 20, 2026, 3:09 AM EDT. Legal & General (LSE: LGEN) leads the FTSE 100 with a 7.7% dividend yield, offering a potential annual income of around £218 on 1,000 shares bought for under £3,000. The company has a history of dividend resilience, growing payouts most years since the 2008 financial crisis despite a temporary pandemic freeze. While share price growth has been modest-a 4% rise over five years compared to the FTSE 100's 50% gain-the firm's strong brand, cash generation, and large customer base support ongoing dividends. Risks include economic downturns affecting policyholder funds and revenue impact from recent U.S. business sales. LGEN is more suited for income-focused investors seeking second income over capital growth.
