And the backtest convinces you? I think this is a rather complicated way to achieve a below-average return. If you really want to start with a wild mix instead of a distributing world ETF, you could, for example, put 70/25/5 into the distributing $TDIV and the accumulating $CSNDX + $EIMI at the same time. This results in roughly the same weighting for sectors and regions, but almost twice as much for price gains and dividends.
@TIEJEY Have you seriously looked into the products? In which macroeconomic scenario do you expect "Global Dividend Aristocrats", for example, to outperform?
