Methodology

At each review date, all North American stocks are screened for their one-year historical dividend yield and one-year historical volatility. For each company, a score is calculated as following: rank its dividend yield in descending order, rank its volatility in ascending order, calculate the average of both ranks. Thirty companies with the highest score (i.e. the highest average of both ranks) are included in the index.

Each component has a volatility weighting, with a 10% capping at the component level.

The detailed methodology including the calculation formula can be found in our rulebook: www.stoxx.com/rulebook
