Replication is physical: the fund holds the underlying securities directly. The ten largest positions account for 42.2% 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 GBP. 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.
Irish domicile lets the fund apply the Ireland–US tax treaty, with 15% withholding instead of 30% on US dividends received by the fund.
