Invesco S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility UCITS ETF CHF Hdg Acc

What this fund is

Invesco S&P 500 High Dividend Low Volatility UCITS ETF CHF Hdg Acc is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Invesco, traded under the ticker 0MIV (ISIN IE00BYVTMX06). It lets you buy a basket of holdings in a single trade, spreading your money across them rather than one company. 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 across its target market. It follows the S&P 500 Low Volatility High Dividend Index index (passive investing): it tracks the market rather than relying on a manager, keeping running costs down, and its largest holdings include HEALTHPEAK PROPERTIES INC USD1, ALTRIA GROUP INC USD0.333 and KRAFT HEINZ CO/THE USD0.01. It holds around 48 positions (the ten largest ≈ 30.1%), spreading risk so no single holding decides your outcome.

Its biggest country exposures are ~97.1% United States and ~2.8% Jersey. Its heaviest sectors are ~22.2% Real Estate and ~17.7% Financials. It is commonly used to tilt a portfolio towards one market, usually alongside broader, more global funds rather than on its own. Its ongoing charge (TER) is 0.35% a year — about €35 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund. Income such as dividends is automatically reinvested inside the fund (an accumulating share class), so returns compound without you doing anything.

It holds the underlying investments directly (physical replication); it is domiciled in Ireland and UCITS-regulated, a European standard built to protect everyday investors, trades in CHF and is currency-hedged against exchange-rate swings. Its price has swung about 10.7% over the past year — a gauge of how much the value moves, not a judgement of quality. It launched in 2017. 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 Invesco.)
