Key reasons to invest
- Underlying portfolio manager Fortis
Investments identifies and selects stocks with high,
sustainable and increasing dividends.
- Currency hedging reduces the volatility of returns (source
Fortis).
Investment Approach
The underlying fund managers select shares of predominantly
defensive companies with high, stable and, preferably rising
dividend yields. The quality of the companies' management also
plays a key role in the analysis. These factors, together with the
stock's valuation, ultimately determine which companies make it
through the team's selection process
