DGRECWisdomTree Emerging Markets Quality Dividend Growth Fund

EDIVAState Street SPDR S&P Emerging Markets Dividend ETF

In short

DGRE Most emerging-market dividend funds hunt the fattest yields. DGRE hunts profitable companies with growing earnings that happen to pay dividends, and charges roughly half the typical fee in its group.

EDIV Running since 2011, EDIV screens emerging-market dividend payers on risk-adjusted yield, dividend-growth stability and profitability, then applies diversification limits. Quality of the dividend over raw yield, for 0.49% a year.

Stated mandate

DGRE The Fund seeks income and capital appreciation and invests primarily in emerging-market dividend-paying common stocks with growth characteristics.

EDIV The fund seeks to track the total return of the S&P Emerging Markets Dividend Opportunities Index, which selects emerging-market stocks using risk-adjusted yield, dividend-growth stability, profitability, and diversification requirements.

Why people hold it

DGRE 0.32% a year, against a 0.60% median for emerging-market dividend screens. It also undercuts WisdomTree's own DEM (0.63%) and DGS (0.58%).
The screen is forward-looking: rank emerging-market dividend payers on profitability and expected earnings growth, then weight holdings by dividends paid.wisdomtree.com wisdomtree.com 2
Roughly 300 names spread across emerging markets, cash paid quarterly, and a live record dating to 2013.

EDIV The index does real work: names qualify on risk-adjusted yield, dividend-growth stability and profitability, with diversification requirements, so one wobbly high-yielder cannot run the portfolio.ssga.com
At 0.49% a year, the fee sits below the median for emerging-market dividend screens, and the fund tracks its index closely enough to rank among the stronger implementations in that group.
A veteran, not an experiment: trading since 2011, a multi-billion-dollar fund from SPDR that distributes quarterly.

Worth knowing

DGRE A smaller, thinly traded fund, so bid-ask spreads can run wider than the biggest emerging-market dividend names.
Quality and growth come before raw yield here, so income can sit lighter than yield-maximizing peers like DEM and DVYE.
Dividend weighting with country and sector caps pushes the country mix well away from a cap-weighted emerging-market benchmark.wisdomtree.com wisdomtree.com 2

EDIV Plainer routes cost less. Franklin's DIEM runs a dividend-tilt index at 0.19%, so the extra fee here buys the selection screen, not broader coverage.
About 110 stocks, not the whole emerging market. Single-country politics and currency moves land harder than in a broad, thousand-name EM index fund.
Trading is moderate rather than heavy, so spreads can widen in fast markets. Emerging-market dividends are seasonal, so quarterly payments vary in size.
