How it works
FDIQ tracks the Bloomberg Financial Data Providers Index, which Bloomberg Index Services Limited builds using research from its affiliate Bloomberg Intelligence. To qualify, a company must be listed in a developed market such as the US, UK, Germany, Japan or Hong Kong. It must also be classed as a financial information services company, a securities and commodities exchange, or an ‘enterprise fintech’ company. Each stock needs at least $500 million in free float market value (shares available to the public) and at least $5 million in average daily trading over 90 days.
Weights are based on free float market value, adjusted for how many stocks are selected. In practice, holdings are spread fairly evenly. As of August 31, 2026, the top 10 made up 46.65% of assets. The fund uses full replication, meaning it buys every stock in the index at roughly its index weight. It keeps at least 90% of its assets in index securities.
Some holdings trade abroad in other currencies or as ADRs and GDRs (certificates that represent foreign shares), so a stronger dollar can cut returns. The fund is passive. It sells a stock only when the index drops it, even if that stock is lagging. Turnover was 16%, and the fund uses no leverage or options.
What it really costs
- FDIQ charges 0.35% a year, versus an average of 0.33% for the similar funds below (3rd of 7, cheapest first).
- Using the prospectus's standard example, $10,000 invested would cost about $36 in the first year and $444 over 10 years (assuming a 5% annual return).
| Cost of $10,000 (SEC example) | 1 yr | 3 yrs | 5 yrs | 10 yrs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FDIQ | $36 | $113 | $197 | $444 |
In a retirement portfolio
Its narrow focus on about 30 exchange and financial data stocks, plus a 46.6% fall in 2020, makes it a small add-on rather than a foundation.
FDIQ could add a focused stake in the firms behind trading and financial data, such as CME Group, Deutsche Boerse and Moody's. The ride has been bumpy. It fell 46.6% in the 2020 COVID crash and recovered in about 9.5 months. In 2022 it dropped 24.9% and took about 29 months to get back to its peak. Its deepest fall was 52.8%, from June 2018 to March 2020. Its worst calendar year was 2018, at -17.78%. Its record does not reach back to 2008. Anyone forced to sell during a drop like these would lock in losses.
Income is modest. The trailing yield was 2.04% as of October 27, 2026, paid quarterly. The fund costs 0.35% a year, or $444 over ten years in the SEC's $10,000 example. Past results don't predict the future, and a plan should look at the whole portfolio, not one fund.
Who it may suit — and who should look elsewhere
May suit
- Investors who want exchanges and data firms like CME Group, Moody's and Experian rather than the banks and insurers in broad financials funds.
- Those who want global reach: about a third of assets were outside the US as of August 31, 2026, including Deutsche Boerse and Hong Kong Exchanges.
- Holders who can keep it as a small position and sit through drops like the 46.6% fall in early 2020.
Look elsewhere if
- Cost-focused investors: Vanguard Financials ETF (VFH) and XLF charge 0.09% and 0.08%, compared with FDIQ's 0.35%.
- Those who want a large fund: FDIQ held $43.4 million as of August 31, 2026, and lost $11.6 million to outflows over three months.
- Retirees who may need to sell in a downturn: the fund took about 29 months to recover from its 2022 drop.

Questions investors ask
What does FDIQ invest in?
FDIQ invests in stock exchange operators, financial information firms and financial-technology companies in developed markets. As of August 31, 2026, it held 30 stocks. The largest were Intercontinental Exchange, CME Group, Cboe Global Markets, Deutsche Boerse and Nasdaq, each about 4.7% to 4.9% of assets. Experian, Coinbase Global, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing, Equifax, Moody's and S&P Global were also held. About 66% of assets were in US companies.
Does FDIQ pay dividends?
Yes, FDIQ pays dividends every quarter. It paid $1.49 per share over the 12 months to October 27, 2026, for a trailing yield of 2.04%. The payouts come from the dividends of the stocks it holds, so they can change from quarter to quarter. With a yield that modest, FDIQ works more as a focused stock fund than as an income fund.
What's the difference between FDIQ and RSPF?
FDIQ owns only exchanges and financial data firms around the world. Invesco S&P 500 Equal Weight Financials ETF (RSPF) gives equal weight to the financial stocks in the S&P 500. The two share only about 11% of their holdings. RSPF charges 0.40% and FDIQ 0.35%. In the year to October 27, 2026, FDIQ returned 27.4% and RSPF 7.7%. Over three years, FDIQ returned 24.6% a year and RSPF 21.1%.
What is FDIQ's expense ratio?
FDIQ's expense ratio is 0.35%, according to its prospectus filed February 20, 2026. In the SEC's standard example ($10,000 invested, a 5% yearly return, shares sold at the end), costs come to about $36 after one year, $197 after five years and $444 after ten. The six similar financials funds it was compared with average 0.33%. Vanguard Financials ETF (VFH) charges 0.09% and XLF 0.08%.
Is FDIQ a risky investment?
Yes, its price can swing sharply. FDIQ fell 46.6% in the 2020 COVID crash and took about 9.5 months to recover. Its deepest drop was 52.8%, from June 2018 to March 2020. Three-year volatility was 27.5% as of October 27, 2026. The prospectus lists added risks: heavy focus on one industry, foreign stocks, currency swings and small- and mid-size companies. Its average annual return was 6.9% over 10 years to December 31, 2025.
