This investment product offers exposure to high-quality, dividend-paying companies from developed markets around the world. It focuses on businesses that are not just returning capital to shareholders now but also have strong potential for future earnings growth. The strategy is built on the premise that companies combining quality characteristics (like strong return on equity and assets) with consistent dividend growth are well-positioned for long-term capital appreciation. By systematically selecting stocks based on these combined factors, the portfolio aims to capture the performance of fundamentally sound global enterprises.
This fund is designed for investors seeking a core global equity holding that emphasizes stability and long-term growth over speculative, short-term gains. It may appeal to those who are looking for a more defensive equity strategy, as quality and dividend-paying stocks have historically shown resilience during periods of market volatility. The focus on both dividend payments and growth prospects makes it a suitable option for individuals aiming to build wealth over the long haul, including those planning for retirement. It provides a diversified way to access leading international companies without having to select individual stocks.
The dual focus on quality and dividend growth provides a balanced approach to equity investing. The 'quality' screen helps to weed out fundamentally weaker companies, potentially reducing risk, while the 'dividend growth' screen identifies firms with sustainable business models and shareholder-friendly policies. This combination seeks to deliver both capital growth and a degree of income (which is reinvested in this accumulating share class), contributing to the power of compounding over time. By investing across numerous developed countries and sectors, the fund also offers significant diversification, reducing reliance on any single economy or industry.
