SDIV

SDIV is a dividend-seeking fund in the global equity market. Selection starts from a universe of companies listed on a regulated stock exchange, including emerging markets. The 100 highest-yielding stocks are chosen, subject to liquidity and stability screens. The index is reviewed quarterly based on dividend cuts or outlook on a company's dividend policy. Removed companies will be replaced by the next highest-yielding stocks from the universe that is excluded from the index. The index is rebalanced annually, assigning each stock with equal weights.
