ING Preferred Stocks

For those readers who want to know about securities that are cumulative, I would recommend joining the free site QuantumOnline which has links to the prospectuses for preferred stocks.QuantumOnline Credit Ratings - QuantumOnline.com  The ING preferred issues are also equity preferred issues that qualify for the 15% max tax rate for qualified dividends as opposed to Trust or Debt Preferred taxable as interest.  That site has information on which issues  qualify for the 15% rate.  The ING preferred issues also provide for payment of interest on deferred dividends when the deferral is not due to a mandatory deferral,  which has some slightly different rules for interest on deferred payments, the kind that involves a solvency type of issue explained in the prospectuses on all ING preferred stocks.  I currently own IND, INZ and ISF.
