Our read on DWM
BA 2006 original: a dividend screen thrown across developed markets outside the US and Canada, landing on roughly 1,300 names rather than a short high-yield shortlist.
The fund seeks to track an index of dividend-paying companies in developed markets outside the United States and Canada.
Why people hold it
- Live since 2006, with the same job description the whole time: dividend-paying companies in developed markets outside the US and Canada.wisdomtree.com
- Roughly 1,300 holdings is a wide net, closer to owning the developed-market dividend payers wholesale than to a concentrated yield list.
- Hugs its stated benchmark, the WisdomTree International Equity Index, about as closely as anything in its peer group.wisdomtree.com
- 0.48% a year sits just under the median fee for international dividend funds, and it distributes on a quarterly schedule.
Worth knowing
- The fee is the sore spot in the neighborhood: VYMI charges 0.07% and SCHY 0.08%, so the broad net here comes at a real markup.
- Thinly traded next to the category's giants, which puts more weight on limit orders and a glance at the spread before you deal.
- No US or Canadian stocks by design, and no currency hedge in the mandate, so it behaves like one sleeve of a portfolio rather than the whole thing.wisdomtree.com
