    Ed is correct. Conventional trackers of old used to keep the dividends for themselves. It's not as common nowadays but some products which track the index still do.

    Yes. That's what I was reading about.

    So how can you guage when you're getting the divi and when you're not, other than when it's laid out easily as with HL?


    Look at the "Yield" column in the link I posted to the list of tracker funds. The yield is the same as the dividend.
    Trying to keep it simple...;)
