Investment strategy
The Fund invests in high quality large and mid-capitalisation stocks with high and persistent dividend income in developed countries in Europe. It seeks to track the performance of the LibertyQ European Dividend Index (the “Underlying Index”) as closely as possible. The Fund aims to replicate the Underlying Index by holding all of its securities in a similar proportion to their weighting in the Underlying Index. The holdings of the Underlying Index are selected from the MSCI Europe IMI ex REITs Index (the “Investment Universe”), using a transparent selection process which applies a dividend persistence and yield screen followed by a quality screen.
The objective of the State Street SPDR S&P Euro Dividend Aristocrats UCITS ETF is to track the performance of certain high dividend-yielding equity securities issued by companies from within the Eurozone. It aims to do this by tracking the performance of the S&P Euro High Yield Dividend Aristocrats Index as closely as possible. The S&P Euro High Yield Dividend Aristocrats Index is designed to measure the performance of the 40 highest dividend-yielding Eurozone companies within the S&P Europe Broad Market Index (BMI), as determined in accordance with the Index methodology, that have followed a managed dividends policy of increasing or stable dividends for at least 10 consecutive years.
