iShares S&P/TSX Canadian Dividend Aristocrats ETF (CDZ) tracks companies with a record of consistently raising their dividends, using a dividend-growth screen rather than a pure yield screen. The aristocrat methodology tends to select higher-quality, lower-cyclicality businesses. Monthly distributions pass through eligible dividends from the underlying basket.
Canadian Planning Notes
- 1CDZ's dividend-growth methodology provides a built-in quality filter; compare its sector concentration and top holdings against ZDV and XDV before selecting.
- 2Eligible dividends flow through monthly; verify the T3 for the eligible-versus-other split in high-turnover years.
- 3DRIP is available; CDZ's index reconstitution can create capital gains distributions if significant holdings are removed.
