About CDZ
The fund provides a dividend play on the Canadian equity market. Starting with the companies listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) that are part of the S&P Canada BMI, the fund selects at least 40 firms that have been consistently increasing dividends every year for at least five years. If fewer than 40 firms qualify for inclusion, the highest yielding companies with four years of eligible annual dividend growth patterns are selected. The fund may include large-, mid, and small-cap companies across various sector and industry groups. Selected securities are then weighted based on indicated annual dividend yield and are constrained such that no individual security exceeds 8% weight of the portfolio. The index rebalances annually.
Performance
CDZ had a total return of 4.21% in the past year. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 2.56%, including dividends.
