- Guinness Atkinson Funds is an investment management firm that offers actively managed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and mutual funds focused on dividend growth, global innovation, energy, and sustainable themes; its flagship offerings include the Guinness Atkinson US Dividend Builder ETF (GAUD), which invests at least 80% of its net assets in publicly-traded equity securities such as common stocks, preferred stocks, convertibles, rights, and warrants issued by U.S. dividend-paying companies expected to consistently increase dividends over three to five years, selected via fundamental analysis emphasizing real cash flow on investment of at least 10% annually for the past decade and sustained return on capital generation. The firm also provides complementary products like the Guinness Atkinson International Dividend Builder ETF (GAID), Real Assets Income ETF (GARA), Global Dividend Builder ETF (DIVS), Asia Pacific Dividend ETF (ADIV), Global Innovators Fund, and Global Energy Fund, targeting institutional and retail investors seeking income, growth exceeding inflation, and exposure to high-quality dividend builders across U.S., international, and sector-specific markets. Headquartered in Pasadena, California, at 251 South Lake Avenue, Suite 800, Guinness Atkinson traces its origins to 1993 as the U.S. arm of Guinness Flight Global Asset Management, with key funds launched since 1994 following its acquisition and rebranding from Investec's U.S. business. In a major strategic expansion during late 2025, the firm launched three new dividend-focused ETFs on December 18-19, including the GAUD ticker on NYSE Arca, alongside GAID and GARA, building on its pioneering mutual fund-to-ETF conversions and deconstructing its global dividend strategy into geography- and asset-class-specific segments to enhance portfolio construction options; this followed SEC approval earlier in the year to convert mutual fund shares into ETFs and reflects ongoing innovation in active dividend management without reported acquisitions, funding rounds, or partnerships in the period. The firm's operations remain centered in the United States, with a sister entity, Guinness Global Investors, managing parallel European-domiciled strategies from London.
