Forging new frontiers in ETFs

Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management last week launched five exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in Hong Kong, offering exposure to high-dividend stocks in Bangladesh, Pakistan, the Philippines and Singapore, and to Asia more broadly.

One's first response might be to sneer that high-dividend stocks are just so 2012. Investors are on a much more bullish footing these days. No need for modest, mid-risk assets such as dividend stocks. The bets these days are more on high-growth equities and high-yield bonds.
