Dividends can be an important component of investment returns over the long term. They are often more stable than stock price performance and can help buoy a portfolio in years when market returns are negative. When a company can consistently increase its dividend over a longer period of time, it is often a signal the business is able to profit through different market environments.
While there are many excellent dividend-paying companies located here in Canada, our relatively small population, and market size, means that most of the world’s best investment opportunities are located outside of our borders.
Why Mackenzie Global Dividend Fund
The Fund seeks to achieve solid long-term growth and mitigate volatility.
Durable growth through time:
The fund is constructed with high-quality companies in stable industries that have a lower risk of disruption from outside forces. These companies will generally have a competitive advantage over their industry peers that makes their operations and profit margins more durable through time. Owning stable companies could lead to less volatility as you accumulate wealth.
Grow your wealth with the power of dividends:
The fund invests in companies with a track record of generating strong returns on invested capital, a measurement of their profitability and ability to create value. These companies, while highly profitable, are generally not highly capital-intensive and can therefore return some of these profits to shareholders in the form of a dividend. And, as these companies reinvest some of these profits back into their operations, they will often increase their dividends to shareholders.
How it works
Identifies industry leaders:
The team searches around the world to find industry leading companies that have a competitive advantage, or protective “moat”, that make the economics of their business operations more predictable and durable. Moats come in many forms, each providing the company with a distinct edge over their peers.
Nimble when opportunities arise:
A strong sense of curiosity combined with decades of diligent and detailed research has led to a defined watch list of high quality dividend-paying companies. By maintaining a focused list of industry-leading businesses around the world, the team is able to act quickly when the market environment changes, and the share price of these industry-leaders falls below what the team believes they are worth.
