About Matthews International Funds Matthews Asia Dividend Active ETF

ADVE actively invests in dividend-paying companies in Asia, including developed, emerging, and frontier markets. It seeks to provide a higher level of current income than the typical yield in Asian equity markets over the long term. To achieve its objective of total return with an emphasis on current income, the fund looks for companies that exhibit attractive dividend yields and the ability to pay increasing dividends. The fund typically holds large- and mid-cap stocks but may invest in companies of any size. To measure a companys size, the fund adviser uses fundamental criteria such as market capitalization, book value, revenues, profits, cash flow, dividend payments, and number of employees. The fund may hold depositary receipts and may invest up to 20% of its assets in convertible debt of any maturity and credit quality.
