Buying from Europe — UCITS versions of ACWI

EU / EEA investors · UCITS funds

Investors in the EU and the EEA usually cannot buy iShares MSCI ACWI ETF itself: US-listed funds publish no key information document, which EU rules require. These European-domiciled funds follow the MSCI ACWI instead.

FundIndexDividendsDomicileXetra (EUR)Londonvs ACWI, since

SPDR MSCI ACWI UCITS ETFIE00B44Z5B48 Same index — Ireland SPYY ACWD · USD −0.05 pp (12 y)

Physically replicating Irish-domiciled funds pay 15% withholding tax on US dividends under the US–Ireland tax treaty; funds domiciled in Luxembourg usually pay 30% — a structural difference that shows up in the tracking difference of funds holding US shares. "Same index family" means the European fund may cap its largest holdings harder than the US fund, as EU fund rules require, so the two can diverge when one heavyweight runs. “vs ACWI, since” = the UCITS fund’s dollar line in London against ACWI, total return, percentage points a year since the common start — positive means the European version returned more.
