The Invesco KBW High Dividend Yield Financial ETF (KBWD) tracks a dividend-yield-weighted index composed of U.S.-listed financial services companies. The fund maintains a mandate to invest at least 90% of its total assets in the securities represented within its underlying index, focusing specifically on entities with high relative dividend payouts.
The portfolio primarily includes companies such as mortgage real estate investment trusts (mREITs) and business development companies (BDCs). Unlike traditional banks that generate income from interest rate spreads on deposits, mREITs often utilize significant leverage to invest in residential or commercial mortgage-backed securities.
Investors should examine ValueRay for further data on how these yield-focused financial holdings perform across different interest rate cycles. Because the index is yield-weighted rather than market-cap weighted, the fund provides higher exposure to small- and mid-cap financial firms compared to broad sector benchmarks.
