VIG focuses on dividend growth. The fund specifically selects US-listed firms that have increased their dividend payments for the past 10 years, while excluding the top 25% highest-yielding companies based on indicated annual dividend yield (IAD). This results in a portfolio that typically carries only moderately higher yield than our vanilla benchmark. Holdings are market-cap-weighted, with individual security weights capped at 4%. The index reconstitutes annually. Overall, VIGs strategy provides a sustainable growth play based on dividends. Prior to September 20, 2021, the fund tracked the Nasdaq US Dividend Achievers Select Index.
