🎯 Investment Strategy
EFAD seeks to replicate the performance of the MSCI EAFE Dividend Masters Index, which is designed to measure the equity market performance of companies in developed market countries outside the U.S. and Canada that have a history of growing their dividends.

- Concentration in dividend-paying stocks, which may underperform the broader market during certain periods
- Potential for lower returns compared to the overall international equity market if dividend growth slows or reverses
- Lack of performance history, as the fund is relatively new
