Benchmark breadth
The United States offers the broadest company and sector universe in this five-market research set.
Compare the five benchmark markets using sourced yield observations and the actual date attached to each observation.
These observations were not all measured on the same day, so use the date column before comparing them. A higher benchmark yield is not automatically better; sector concentration, currency, tax treatment, dividend growth, and valuation still matter.
| Metric | Yield snapshot | Observation date | Market |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brazil | 5.18% | 2026-04-07 ยท older snapshot | n/a |
| Singapore | 4.37% | 2026-06-23 | n/a |
| United Kingdom | 3.05% | 2026-06-30 | n/a |
| Australia | 3.20% | 2026-07-31 | n/a |

The United States offers the broadest company and sector universe in this five-market research set.
The dated UK, Australian, and Singapore benchmark observations are higher than the U.S. observation, though each market has a different sector mix and risk profile.
Brazil's benchmark observation is the oldest in this table and is explicitly retained as an older snapshot until a newer directly sourced Ibovespa yield is verified.
