Domiciled in Ireland and launched in 2019, the fund manages about 2.8 bn € and charges a TER of 0.10% — 10 € per year on a €10,000 investment. Income is automatically reinvested in the fund (accumulating).

The fund in context

Vanguard FTSE Developed Europe UCITS ETF EUR Accumulation CHF competes with 1 other products on the same index (FTSE Developed Europe): it ranks 2nd by fund size and 1st by ongoing cost, with a TER of 0.10% against a group median of 0.10%. It has been listed since 2019, 7 years of track record.

On a €10,000 investment the TER costs 10 € a year. The cheapest of the group is Vanguard FTSE Developed Europe (Dist) at 0.10%, or 10 € on the same amount: a difference of 0 € every year, roughly 0 € over ten years before compounding.

Replication is physical: the fund holds the underlying securities directly. The ten largest positions account for 20.8% of the portfolio.

Income is accumulated: no distribution is paid out, the share price absorbs it. In a savings plan this removes the need to reinvest dividends by hand. The fund is denominated in EUR. That is not the same as currency risk: the exposure comes from the currencies of the underlying holdings, not from the denomination or the trading currency of a given listing.

The fund is domiciled in Ireland, which determines the tax treatment of income received by the fund and the supervisory authority.
