XEF Dividend Summary
XEF is iShares' core developed international ETF. It tracks the MSCI EAFE IMI, covering Europe, Australasia, and the Far East from large companies down to small. The US and Canada stay out. Japan, the UK, and the eurozone carry most of the weight, and currency stays unhedged. Underlying dividends pass through as a semi-annual distribution. Investors use it as a foreign-stock holding, not an income fund.
