Overview

How is this fund different to others?

If you love dividends, pay attention. Dividend Aristocrats are companies which have had increasing or stable dividends for at least the last ten years. With a strong indicative dividend yield, this fund provides global diversification and a passive income stream. These Aristocrats come from all sectors; most prominently from financials, utilities, communication services and real estate. This sector diversity combined with the strong dividend history of constituents gives confidence in the stability of future pay-outs. This Fund tracks the S&P Developed Ex-Korea Dividend Aristocrats Quality Income Index – quite the mouthful.

Risk

The risk indicator reflects how much the value of the Fund’s assets goes up and down (volatility). A higher risk generally means higher potential returns over time, but more ups and downs along the way. The lowest risk rating doesn’t mean “risk-free” and this risk indicator is not a guarantee of a Fund’s future performance.
