About TBHDX
The Tweedy, Browne Worldwide High Dividend Yield Value Fund is an open-end mutual fund focused on generating income and long-term capital appreciation through investment in global equities. The fund primarily targets U.S. and international companies that exhibit above-average dividend yields and are trading at reasonable valuations, reflecting a value-oriented approach. By emphasizing high-dividend stocks, the fund seeks to capitalize on the empirical evidence that dividends have historically contributed significantly to total equity returns over time.
The portfolio is relatively concentrated, containing around 60–70 holdings, with significant allocation to the fund’s top positions, which often include leading companies from sectors such as consumer defensive, industrials, healthcare, and basic materials. The fund maintains low portfolio turnover, typically around 16%, underscoring a long-term investment philosophy. It is categorized in the global large-stock value space and is designed for investors seeking equity income from a diversified basket of high-dividend yield companies across developed markets.
With a history dating to 2007, the fund is managed by an experienced team and aims to provide investors access to quality dividend-paying companies worldwide, reinforcing the importance of dividends in portfolio construction.
