Fund Details
Investment Thesis
Dividend growth is a quality signal that crosses borders: companies that raise payouts for seven straight years tend to have the balance sheets and discipline that survive cycles, wherever they're listed. VIGI holds ~370 of them outside the US for 0.07% — a steadier, quality-tilted way to own international markets than either cap-weight or high-yield screens.
Who It's For
Dividend-growth investors extending the VIG philosophy abroad, and international allocators who prefer proven compounders to deep value. Pairs with VYMI, which chases today's yield instead.
