8%+ yields! 3 income-paying FTSE stocks, funds and trusts to consider

The UK stock market’s punching new record highs. Yet many top-quality income stocks, funds and investment trusts continue to pack enormous dividend yields.

Take the following London-listed assets, for instance:

• The Renewables Infrastructure Group (LSE:TRIG), whose forward dividend yield’s 8.3%.
• iShares World Equity High Income ETF (LSE:WINC), which delivers a 9.8% corresponding yield.
• Phoenix Group (LSE:PHNX), whose forward yield’s 8.3%.

Each of these yields is more than double the FTSE 100 average of 3.4%. And if broker forecasts are accurate, a £10,000 lump sum invested equally across them will yield an £880 passive income in 2025, and probably (in my opinion) a growing one beyond this year.

Here’s why each dividend share has significant long-term income potential and maybe worth considering.
