iShares S&P/TSX Composite High Dividend Index ETF (XEI) holds the high-dividend-yield subset of the TSX Composite, including both equity and income trust sectors. XEI pays monthly distributions that may include eligible dividends plus other income components depending on the underlying holdings' distribution character. Its broader sector exposure includes REITs and energy royalty trusts.
Canadian Planning Notes
- 1XEI's inclusion of REITs and royalty income holdings means distributions may have a mixed tax character (eligible dividends, other income, ROC); verify the annual T3.
- 2Monthly distributions are useful for income calendaring; DRIP is available.
- 3Compare XEI's sector weights—particularly REIT and energy royalty exposure—against XDIV and ZDV when selecting a Canadian dividend ETF.
