Our read on TDVG

ETF.net Research

In short

BT. Rowe Price's stock pickers in an ETF wrapper. TDVG hunts companies that keep raising dividends rather than the fattest current yields, in a compact book of roughly 100 US names, and has been running since 2020.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks dividend income and long-term capital growth.

Why people hold it

  • Dividend growth, not top yield: at least 80% in stocks with an established or expected record of paying dividends, screened for sustainable earnings, sound finances and durable advantages.
  • At 0.50% it undercuts the typical active dividend fund, and it rates among the stronger implementations in a crowded active-income field.
  • About 100 stocks, so manager conviction shows instead of getting diluted across hundreds of names. Income is paid quarterly.
  • A multi-billion-dollar fund live since 2020, with trading that has held up well for an actively managed strategy.

Worth knowing

  • The screens favor companies raising payouts over the fattest current yielders, so the income profile tends to run lighter than deep-value dividend strategies.
  • 0.50% is active-manager pricing: strong peers in the same cohort charge less, including CGDV at 0.33% and HIDV at 0.35%.
  • No index to hide behind. Outcomes ride on the team's picks, and a US-only book of roughly 100 stocks carries full equity market risk.
