Domiciled in Ireland and launched in 2019, the fund manages about 1.9 bn € and charges a TER of 0.17% — 17 € per year on a €10,000 investment. Income is automatically reinvested in the fund (accumulating).
Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets UCITS ETF USD Accumulation GBP competes with 104 other products in the same class and region (Equity, Emerging markets): it ranks 21st by fund size and 13th by ongoing cost, with a TER of 0.17% against a group median of 0.25%. It has been listed since 2019, 7 years of track record.
On a €10,000 investment the TER costs 17 € a year, against 25 € for the median product in the category.
Replication is physical: the fund holds the underlying securities directly. The ten largest positions account for 29.3% 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 USD. 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.
