Backtests show that the strategy delivers an almost 40% higher dividend payout while exhibiting lower volatility, compared to the Solactive GBS Asia Large &amp; Mid Cap benchmark index.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This collaboration in product development is a joint effort of Nikko AM\u2019s quantitative investment team with Solactive\u2019s expertise in indexing solutions technology. The Dividend Plus Index is one of several new-generation indices that both companies plan to roll out, with an Enhanced Factors Index in the pipeline.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe are honored to partner with Nikko AM, one of Asia\u2019s largest and most experienced asset managers, in collaborating on the Solactive Asia ex Japan Dividend Plus Index.\u201d<span style=\"color: #9ab62f;\"> <strong>Timo Pfeiffer, Chief Markets Officer at Solactive. <\/strong><\/span>\u201cNikko AM plays a significant role in the Japanese asset management markets, and being chosen as their partner to develop this innovative index is proof of the quality of our offering.
