UBS MSCI World Socially Responsible UCITS ETF USD dis

UBS MSCI World Socially Responsible UCITS ETF USD dis is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from UBS, traded under the ticker SRIW (ISIN IE00BK72HH44). In a single purchase you get a diversified basket of holdings rather than a stake in just one business. In plain terms it is about owning small slices of companies, so you share in their growth when they do well — and their falls when they don't, spread broadly across markets worldwide. It passively tracks the MSCI World index — mirroring that market instead of paying a manager to pick winners, which keeps costs low, and its largest holdings include TESLA INC, MICROSOFT CORP and NVIDIA CORP. By geography it is weighted towards ~28.4% United States and ~3.2% Netherlands. By industry it concentrates most in ~22.2% Technology and ~4.6% Consumer Discretionary. Funds like this are commonly chosen by investors who want a regular cash income stream rather than reinvesting everything for growth. Its ongoing charge (TER) is 0.19% a year — about €19 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund. It is a distributing share class — dividends are paid to you as cash rather than reinvested, and over the last year it paid out roughly 0.56% (its trailing yield). It holds the underlying investments directly (physical replication); it is domiciled in Ireland and UCITS-regulated, a European standard built to protect everyday investors and trades in USD. Its price has swung about 13.2% over the past year — a gauge of how much the value moves, not a judgement of quality. It launched in 2020. Like any investment, it can lose value as well as gain, and what it did before does not predict what it will do next. (Fund data sourced from UBS.)
