This fund provides low-cost access to developed equity markets across the globe - all in a single investment. Its largest holdings currently include U.S. tech leaders like Apple, Nvidia, and Microsoft, alongside major international companies such as Nestlé and Toyota.
By investing in this fund, you gain exposure to a globally diversified mix of companies. This ETF isn’t tied to the market of one region - it moves with the trends of the global economy - making the MSCI World ETF a strong choice for long-term global growth.
The MSCI World ETF tracks an index weighted by the market value of publicly traded shares, rather than focusing on any one sector.
At present, the top sector exposures include Technology, Financials, Industrials, and Healthcare. However, these sector weightings evolve over time, adapting naturally to shifts in global market performance.
This is a passive index fund, meaning it doesn’t hand-pick stocks — it follows a broad benchmark of leading companies in developed markets.
While the individual top performers may change, the fund will always track the same segment of the global economy. That consistency makes it an appealing option for long-term, passive investors seeking global exposure.
