What is IQDY?

IQDY pursues a strategy that, in line with its stated investment objective, provides exposure to international securities while providing dividend payments. It is intended as a core international stock market option that also helps investors try to meet their income needs. The strategy applies a proprietary scoring model approach that determines a "quality factor" and an optimization process that seeks to maximize this factor, target a beta higher than the Parent Index (Northern Trust International Large Cap IndexSM) and improve on the Parent Indexs dividend yield.
