Our read on VIDI
In short
CMost international funds let market cap decide how much of each country you own. VIDI flips the order: its index ranks countries first on governance and fiscal health (government debt, spending, savings), then picks the stocks inside them.
Stated mandate
The Fund seeks to track the performance of the Vident international equity index before fees and expenses.
