Our read on EASY

ETF.net Research

FA 2025 newcomer that treats dividend growth as defense: at least 80% of assets in companies with long records of raising their payouts, picked by an active manager rather than an index screen. At 0.88%, it charges boutique prices in a crowded aisle.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks current income and capital appreciation to generate total return.

Why people hold it

  1. 01The mandate is nailed down in the prospectus: at least 80% of net assets in equities of companies with a strong long-term record of increasing dividends.
  2. 02Actively run, not index-bolted. The manager chooses the defensive payers instead of taking whatever a yield screen serves up, chasing income plus capital appreciation.
  3. 03Plain plumbing: a 1940 Act equity fund with no leverage, no options overlay, no swap counterparty layered on top.

Worth knowing

  1. 01The 0.88% fee runs well above the typical dividend-income ETF, and above active peers such as CGDV (0.33%) and TDVG (0.50%).
  2. 02It launched in September 2025, so there is little history here and risk readings rest on a very short window.
  3. 03Still a small, lightly traded fund, so spreads can be wider than the category giants, and distributions come on no fixed calendar.
