Investors looking for income from shares typically have turned to Australian companies, which pay relatively high dividends by world standards. However, looking beyond our borders for income opportunities can be rewarding, especially in today’s very low interest rate environment.

Through intelligent screening and portfolio construction, BetaShares Global Income Leaders ETF (ASX: INCM) aims to overcome this challenge – so Australian investors can access the best of both worlds.

BetaShares Global Income Leaders ETF (ASX: INCM) – Attractive income and global diversification in one ASX trade.

INCM provides investors with exposure to a portfolio of 100 global companies (ex-Australia) which are selected for their potential to generate attractive and sustainable income. One of INCM’s key investment objectives is to provide an attractive yield from dividends.

Over the last five years, INCM’s index has provided a total return of 2.91% p.a.*
