S&P Australian Shares High Yield ETF
Overview
Fund objective
HYLD aims to track the performance of an index (before fees and expenses) that provides exposure to a share portfolio of 50 high-yielding Australian companies.
Benefits
High income, paid monthly
HYLD provides exposure to 50 Australian companies with high forecast dividend yields.
Intelligent approach to enhancing yield
HYLD seeks to improve on traditional high-dividend strategies by aiming to screen out potential ‘dividend traps’ such as companies projected to pay unsustainably high dividend yields, as well as companies that exhibit high levels of volatility relative to their forecast dividend payout.
A core holding for income-seeking investors
HYLD can be used as an investor’s core Australian shares exposure, aiming to provide higher income than the broad Australian share market, and the potential to outperform the S&P/ASX 200 Index.
There are risks associated with an investment in HYLD, including market risk, concentration risk, index methodology risk and index tracking risk. Investment value can go up and down. An investment in the Fund should only be made after considering your particular circumstances, including your tolerance for risk. For more information on risks and other features of the Fund, please see the Product Disclosure Statement and Target Market Determination, both available on this website.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. Returns are calculated in Australian dollars using net asset value per unit at the start and end of the specified period and do not reflect brokerage or the bid ask spread that investors incur when buying and selling units on the ASX. Returns are after fund management costs, assume reinvestment of any distributions and do not take into account tax paid as an investor in the Fund. Returns for periods longer than one year are annualised. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown.
