TBG Dividend Focus ETF (TBG)

About TBG

TBG looks for dividend growth in the US equity space. The fund begins its selection process by identifying large-, mid-, and small-cap US companies with a dividend yield greater than the S&P 500s average yield. The fund utilizes a bottom-up, fundamental process to screen for companies with the ability to grow their dividends more than 5% per year over a 5- to 7-year market cycle. The fund adviser prefers companies with demonstrated ability to grow their free cash flows, earnings, and dividends while maintaining their financial strength. The quality and reputation of a companys management are also considered by the adviser. The resulting portfolio typically comprises 30 to 40 companies. The fund is actively managed, the adviser has full discretion to buy, hold, or sell portfolio securities at any given time. The fund may also lend securities of up to one-third of the funds total assets.
