Amundi S&P Eurozone Dividend Aristocrat Screened UCITS ETF Acc

What this fund is

Amundi S&P Eurozone Dividend Aristocrat Screened UCITS ETF Acc is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Amundi, traded under the ticker EDIV (ISIN LU0959210781). In a single purchase you get a diversified basket of holdings rather than a stake in just one business. In plain terms it is about lending to governments and companies in return for regular interest, which tends to be steadier than shares but grows more slowly, spread across its target market. It follows the S&P Euro High Yield Dividend Aristocrats Screened EUR Index index (passive investing): it tracks the market rather than relying on a manager, keeping running costs down, and its largest holdings include UNIPOL ASSICURAZIONI SPA, MUENCHENER RUECKVER AG-REG and NN GROUP NV. Spread across roughly 43 holdings (the ten largest ≈ 40%), no one position makes or breaks the fund.

By geography it is weighted towards ~22.4% Italy, ~19.8% Germany and ~13.8% Netherlands. By industry it concentrates most in ~29.1% Financials and ~16.8% Industrials. Funds like this are often used as the steadier, lower-swing part of a portfolio — the ballast that cushions the ups and downs of shares. Its ongoing charge (TER) is 0.3% a year — about €30 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund. Income such as dividends is automatically reinvested inside the fund (an accumulating share class), so returns compound without you doing anything.

It holds the underlying investments directly (physical replication); it is domiciled in Luxembourg and UCITS-regulated, a European standard built to protect everyday investors and trades in EUR. Its price has swung about 10.7% over the past year, which describes how much its price tends to move rather than whether it is good. It launched in 2021. Like any investment, it can lose value as well as gain, and what it did before does not predict what it will do next. (Fund data sourced from Amundi.)
