Category classification and liquidity

Morningstar places the fund in the Australia Equity Income category, which covers funds investing primarily in Australian equities that seek to generate above-market levels of income, either through higher-yielding stocks or derivatives, and typically show a large-cap bias.

Liquidity indicators add a further view. There are 24,090,971 units on issue, and average daily trading volume is 25,891 units. Over the five sessions from 7 to 13 October 2026, daily volume ranged from 7,000 to 19,700 units, with 19,715 recorded on 13 October while the market was still open. The bid-offer range stood at $16.47 to $16.90, and the day range at $16.42 to $16.55. These figures change through the trading day and reflect market activity rather than the fund's holdings.

Recent announcements

The issuer published Components of Distributions on 12 October, distribution reinvestment plan prices and the final distribution announcement on 8 October, monthly units-on-issue details on 7 October and an estimated distribution announcement on 6 October.

Final Takeaway

IHD pairs a dividend-focused selection with a sustainability screen, producing a portfolio dominated by banks and miners. Its turnover of 48.79% and its uneven quarterly distributions are part of its profile. These facts describe construction and do not forecast outcomes.
