IDVY

First Trust International Rising Dividend Achievers ETF is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that tracks the Nasdaq International Rising Dividend Achievers Index. Launched in February 2026, the fund targets high-quality, dividend-paying companies in developed markets outside the United States. To qualify for inclusion, companies must demonstrate consistent growth in both dividends and earnings-per-share, while maintaining strong balance sheet health characterized by high cash-to-debt ratios and conservative payout ratios. The fund uses an indexing approach to provide exposure to international "dividend achievers" with the potential for both income and capital appreciation.
