The First Trust SMID Cap Rising Dividend Achievers ETF (SDVY) is a passively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the performance of an index composed of small- and mid-capitalization U.S. companies with a consistent history of raising their dividends. To qualify for inclusion, securities must have increased their dividend distributions over both the trailing three-year and five-year annual periods, screening for sustained dividend growth rather than high current yield.
The fund commits at least 90% of its net assets to the common stocks comprising its underlying index, making it a rules-based equity strategy. Launched in November 2017 and listed on NASDAQ, SDVY follows a transparent indexing methodology common to First Trusts suite of dividend-focused ETFs, offering investors targeted exposure to U.S. SMID-cap names that have demonstrated disciplined capital return policies through multi-year dividend hikes.
