Our read on DGRE
CMost emerging-market dividend funds hunt the fattest yields. DGRE hunts profitable companies with growing earnings that happen to pay dividends, and charges roughly half the typical fee in its group.
The Fund seeks income and capital appreciation and invests primarily in emerging-market dividend-paying common stocks with growth characteristics.
Why people hold it
- 0.32% a year, against a 0.60% median for emerging-market dividend screens. It also undercuts WisdomTree's own DEM (0.63%) and DGS (0.58%).
- The screen is forward-looking: rank emerging-market dividend payers on profitability and expected earnings growth, then weight holdings by dividends paid.wisdomtree.comwisdomtree.com
- Roughly 300 names spread across emerging markets, cash paid quarterly, and a live record dating to 2013.
Worth knowing
- A smaller, thinly traded fund, so bid-ask spreads can run wider than the biggest emerging-market dividend names.
- Quality and growth come before raw yield here, so income can sit lighter than yield-maximizing peers like DEM and DVYE.
- Dividend weighting with country and sector caps pushes the country mix well away from a cap-weighted emerging-market benchmark.wisdomtree.comwisdomtree.com
