DVYE has a somewhat narrow focus, holding 100 of the highest-yielding stocks from emerging markets. Selecting and weighting constituents are primarily based on dividend yield, subject to screening and buffering criteria. It delivers some extra yield, but in terms of total return, the case for DVYE is somewhat less clear. The universe begins with the S&P Emerging BMI, excluding real estate investment trusts. Stocks are then screened largely for dividend yield along with other fundamental factors. Stocks are weighted based on indicated annual dividend, with no single country going above 25%. The index is reconstituted annually, subject to quarterly reviews.
