Our read on TBG

ETF.net Research

In short

BAn actively run dividend-growth playbook in ETF form: a hand-picked roster of US companies the manager judges able to keep raising payouts, run for income and long-term appreciation rather than headline yield.

Stated mandate

The Fund seeks income and long-term capital appreciation.

Why people hold it

  • Active, not a screen. The sub-adviser picks US companies it believes can grow dividends over time, with room for REITs and MLPs alongside common stock.etfarchitect.com
  • 0.45%, with no waiver propping it up. That sits right around the typical active dividend fee and level with BGIG at 0.45%.
  • Pays quarterly, and the stated mandate covers both income and long-term capital appreciation, not yield alone.
  • Lands in the upper half of a 40-fund active dividend field, one of the stronger builds in a crowded aisle.

Worth knowing

  • Thinly traded for its category, which can mean wider spreads and more slippage on big or hurried orders.
  • Several of the category's top-rated peers cost less: VUS at 0.25%, CGDV at 0.33%, HIDV at 0.35%, none on a waiver.
  • Hand-picked means results ride on the sub-adviser's judgment, and the fund only opened in 2023, so the record is short.etfarchitect.com
