Fears of a so-called Brexit, or a departure of Britain from the European Union, are really heating up.

This has caused European stocks to decline in recent weeks. The Brexit vote has investors scared about Europe's financial future, but fear creates opportunity for enterprising investors, and fear of a Brexit is no exception. We'll look at three high-dividend stocks that are entering bargain territory because of uncertainty over a Brexit.

Investors should not be overly concerned about a potential Brexit because GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) is a diversified company.
