DIM holds mid-cap stocks that have paid dividends over the past year, weighted by the cash amount of dividends paid. The fund defines its mid-cap universe by excluding the 300 biggest dividend-paying companies from the WisdomTree International Equity Index, and then the bottom 25% of the remaining companies by market cap. Notably, it excludes North America, but this is the funds only significant country bias. DIM also eliminates companies that have potential higher risk by applying a composite risk factor screen based on financial quality metrics and momentum factor. Both country and sector weights are capped at 25%. The index is reconstituted and rebalanced on an annual basis.
