DFJ approaches the Japanese small-cap segment with an emphasis on dividends, selecting and weighting stocks based on cash dividends paid over the preceding year. The fund is constructed by removing 300 of the largest companies by market cap from a universe of eligible dividend-paying Japanese firms. In addition, these securities should meet the size and liquidity screens. Dividend-focused weighting scheme will then be applied, so that the funds exposure tilts towards the companies that pay higher dividends. The index rebalances annually so that no individual security has a weight greater than 2% and each sector has a maximum weight of 25%.
