FlexShares: Traveling Abroad For Dividend Yield: (IQDF)
FYI: The search for yield continues, and dividend products remain a popular destination for asset flows. As demonstrated in the chart below, YTD net flows to international dividend ETFs recently eclipsed their U.S.-focused peers for the period ending August 31, 2017. As investors position their portfolios for changing economic, growth and political outlooks, our opinion is that this preference for international dividend strategies makes a lot of sense.
