Version 2.0 — September 2026.

The short version

This site uses only what it needs to work. No analytics, no advertising, no profiling, no cookies that follow you elsewhere. Nothing here requires a consent banner under the ePrivacy rules, because every item below is either strictly necessary or set at your own request.

The tax profile stays in your browser: we never store it and cannot read it when you are not on the site.

Payments

When you subscribe, the payment happens on Stripe's own pages and systems: Stripe sets its own cookies there, described in their policy, and we never see your card details. Nothing of that is stored by us.

If we ever add anything else

Should we one day add analytics or any non-essential technology, we will ask first, with a real choice, and refusing will not cost you any feature. Until that banner appears, there is nothing to consent to.

How to remove them

Clear the site data in your browser, or remove your tax profile from the Taxes page. Nothing is lost except the preferences themselves.

Important information. Master of Yield is an independent research tool. All content on this site, including fund data, screeners, scores, model portfolios and backtests, is provided for information and education only. Nothing here is investment, legal, tax or accounting advice, nor a recommendation or solicitation to buy, sell or hold any financial instrument. We are not a broker, a bank or an authorised investment adviser, and we have no knowledge of your personal circumstances. Any investment decision you make is yours alone: consult a qualified adviser before acting.

Our approach. Our model portfolios follow a purely quantitative, rules-based method focused on income. Funds are selected, ranked and rotated by statistical criteria applied mechanically: price erosion since inception, sustainability of distributions, dividend growth, yield and total return. No discretionary judgement or view on individual companies or markets is involved, and the same rules apply to every fund.

About the backtests. Portfolio results are hypothetical simulations run on historical data, not records of real trades or of any real account. Among other simplifications, they assume every fund could be bought and sold at its month-end price with no spread, commission or market impact; they show figures before tax unless you set your own tax profile under "Taxes", where you choose your country and can adjust every rate and the commission your broker charges per trade — those figures are an estimate, not a tax calculation; and they convert every amount to euro at the daily exchange rate. The fund universe only contains products that exist today, so funds that closed in the past are missing, which tends to flatter results. Many funds have short histories, so some results cover only a few years of a largely rising market. Rules may be refined over time and each refinement is applied to the full history, so past results can change. Past or simulated performance does not guarantee future results, and every investment can lose value, including the capital invested.

About the data. Data is collected from publicly available open sources and third-party providers and is not independently verified. No warranty is given as to its accuracy, completeness or timeliness. Always check figures with the fund provider before acting. Fund reference data (expense ratio, fund size, domicile) is completed with the EU ETF Universe dataset by Danimoth, used under the CC BY 4.0 licence: danimoth.com/dataset.
