There’s no denying that Rolls Royce It has seen one of the most exciting runs on the UK stock market over the past couple of years. But now with the price skyrocketing, analysts expect little or no growth for the stock in the next 12 months.

So, here are three more stocks to consider with much higher growth prospects. Not only that, they each pay huge dividends!

ECG

ECG(LSE:ICG) is a specialist lender and asset manager, helping large investors invest their money in private credit and infrastructure deals. This means they earn fixed fees, plus additional income when investments do well. With a yield of nearly 5% supported by growing earnings and assets under management, it looks attractive for both income and capital growth.

The best part? It boasts a track record (31 years) of uninterrupted dividend payments.

A key driver of growth is that pension funds and insurance companies are still shifting money from bonds to private credit, which suits ICG’s operations. On the flip side, a bad recession or credit crunch can hurt deal closings and increase defaults, putting pressure on earnings and profits.

However, for patient investors who are comfortable with potential market volatility, I think it’s worth a serious look.

Redro Bars

Redro Bars‘s (LSE: BTRW) is a giant housebuilder formed from the merger of Barratt Developments and Redrow, giving it a huge coverage across the UK. It has an attractive yield of 4.5% and will benefit if mortgage rates continue to fall and buyer confidence continues to recover.

Long-term demand for family homes coupled with government pressures to increase housing supply support the growth narrative.

However, ownership is a cyclical business. If the UK slips back into recession, sales and profits (along with dividends) could suffer. Construction cost inflation, delays in planning, and any change in housing policy present an additional headache.

For investors willing to ride through a cycle with a few ups and downs, this could be an opportunity to take advantage of a gradual housing recovery as income increases.

DCC

DCC(LSE: DCC) is a diversified distribution company, particularly in energy (eg LPG and fuels), but also healthcare and technology products. Think of it as an intermediary that keeps a lot of daily services running, helping to generate profits over time.

Like ICG, it has a 31-year payment history, with many years of steady increases and a 4% yield that is well covered by cash flow. There is moderate growth potential from acquisitions and the shift to clean energy solutions, such as services linked to renewable energy sources.

On the risk front, demand for conventional fuels will slowly decline as the world decarbonizes, so management must keep up with innovative new business ideas. If you like reliable, boring companies and can live with some takeover risk, DCC seems like a reasonable candidate to consider for a long-term UK income portfolio.

Look beyond the headlines

There are three lesser-known companies such as ICG, Barrett Redrow, and DCC FTSE 100 index Stocks that rarely make headlines. But they’re just the sort of boring comp that can quietly accumulate within a retirement-focused ISA.

Spectacular comeback stories like Rolls-Royce may dominate the headlines for short periods, but in the long run, the tortoise here wins the race. For investors with 20- to 30-year outlooks, reliable (and reinvested) dividends can make a big difference.
