Our read on IHDG
DInternational dividend funds are usually two bets: foreign stocks and foreign currencies. IHDG keeps the stocks and hedges the currency, tracking a WisdomTree index of developed-market dividend payers screened for profitability and growth.
The fund seeks to track the pre-fee and pre-expense price and yield performance of the WisdomTree International Hedged Quality Dividend Growth Index.
Why people hold it
- Forward contracts strip out yen, euro and pound swings, so results track what the stocks do at home rather than what the dollar does.wisdomtree.com
- Rules-based selection: developed-market dividend payers ranked on earnings growth expectations plus three-year ROE and ROA, then weighted by the dividends they pay.wisdomtree.com
- Running since 2014, a multi-billion-dollar fund holding roughly 300 names outside the US and Canada, paying quarterly.
Worth knowing
- At 0.58% a year it runs above its peer-group median and well above unhedged rivals like VIGI (0.07%) and IGRO (0.15%). The hedge and the screen are what you pay for.
- Hedging cuts both ways: a falling dollar no longer flatters returns, and the hedge's cost tracks the gap between US and foreign short-term rates.wisdomtree.com
- WisdomTree flags that the strategy may make higher capital gain distributions than other ETFs, worth knowing in a taxable account.wisdomtree.com
