EEMD Profile
The AAM S&P Emerging Markets High Dividend Value ETF tracks a rules-based, equal-weighted index designed to capture high dividend yield and sustainable dividend distribution within emerging markets. This ETF provides investors with exposure to companies from the S&P Emerging Plus LargeMidCap Index, which are identified for their strong dividend characteristics. The strategy focuses on ensuring diversified sector representation, allowing investors to gain broad exposure across different industries while concentrating on high-income opportunities.
The fund mandates that at least 80% of its net assets be allocated to equity securities that meet two critical criteria: they must be economically linked to emerging markets countries and have demonstrated a positive realized annual dividend yield over the past year. This approach aims to balance yield with stability, selecting firms that not only offer attractive dividends but also exhibit resilience and reliable income streams.
In its portfolio construction, the ETF emphasizes sectors and companies within emerging markets that provide consistent and substantial dividend payments. The equal-weighted nature of the index helps in mitigating the impact of any single stock or sector on the overall performance, thereby fostering a more stable investment outcome. This strategy is designed to appeal to income-focused investors looking for growth opportunities in emerging markets without sacrificing the stability of their dividend income.
The AAM S&P Emerging Markets High Dividend Value ETF represents a strategic investment vehicle for those seeking exposure to high dividend yields in the burgeoning markets of emerging economies. By focusing on companies with proven dividend histories and maintaining broad sector diversification, the ETF aims to deliver a compelling blend of yield and growth potential, positioning itself as a valuable addition to income-oriented investment portfolios.
