"The fund posted a 2.21% return for Q4 2025, underperforming its benchmark, but maintains a constructive outlook for 2026 backed by expected dollar weakness and lower yields."
In Q4 2025, the BlackRock Global Dividend Fund achieved returns of 2.21% (Institutional shares) but underperformed its benchmark due to stock selection in materials, industrials, and information technology. Key positive contributors included FinecoBank, SK Hynix, and AstraZeneca. Conversely, RELX (which was exited), Sony, and Alibaba (which was trimmed) detracted from overall performance. Management remains constructive on international markets heading into 2026, anticipating macro tailwinds such as a weaker U.S. dollar, lower bond yields, and broader economic activity.
