Recently Arch Capital Group has paid out, on average, around 100% of net profits as dividends.

In Arch Capital Group's case, that would currently equate to about $0 per share.

Arch Capital Group's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
