Basic Info

The S&P High Yield Dividend Aristocrats® index is designed to measure the performance of companies within the S&P Composite 1500® that have followed a managed-dividends policy of consistently increasing dividends every year for at least 20 years. Unlike indices that focus solely on high dividend yields, which typically hail from the Financials and Utilities sectors, this index is well diversified across all sectors. The result is that the index portfolio has both capital growth and dividend income characteristics. The weighting method is yield-driven, but individual stocks are capped at a 4% weight.
