There is a reason that most mortgages are paid monthly and not quarterly. Banks are looking for reassurance the payments will continue to come in. In much the same way, many investors find comfort in owning stocks that pay monthly dividends. There are several advantages to receiving dividends each month over the traditional quarterly, semi-annual or annual dividends.
For some, monthly dividend payments are worth seeking out. Personally, I will buy a security that pays monthly dividends if it meets my criteria and it is the best option available, but I prefer quarterly dividends due to the lower administrative burden. The important question is not how often a stock pays its dividend, but can it sustain and grow the dividend.
