5 Higher Yielding Financial Stocks With Low Debt Figures

Dividends are a powerful income source if you use it wisely. I personally prefer stocks with solid growth potential but don't like to overpay a stock.

But as investor with a small pocket and a high desire of big yielding stocks, I also need to look at companies with yields far above the 5 percent mark. 

Today I've discovered some stock ideas from the financial sector. I know, it’s not the best place to hunt for opportunities because the assets are often strange in terms of asset volatility. In addition, the financial sector often life from interest arbitrage, a risky and low margin business (in a market with full information). However, you can find a compilation about financial stocks with high yields and "normal" debt ratios beow.

These are my criteria:

Market cap is greater than Over 100 million.
Dividend yield is greater than 8.5%.
The payout ratio is less than 100%.
Total debt to equity is less than 1.00.

Five higher yielding stocks from the financial sector fulfilled these criteria. The most of the results are low capitalized.
