Xtrackers MSCI Europe Health Care UCITS ETF 1C

Xtrackers · LU0292103222

Xtrackers MSCI Europe Health Care UCITS ETF 1C is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Xtrackers, traded under the ticker XSDR (ISIN LU0292103222). One trade buys a whole basket of holdings, so your money is spread out instead of riding on a single company. At its core it is a focused, thematic fund: it concentrates on the health care part of the market, so it lives or dies by that one area rather than the economy as a whole. Underneath, 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. It follows the MSCI Europe Health Care Capped 20-35 Index index (passive investing): it tracks the market rather than relying on a manager, keeping running costs down, and its largest holdings include ROCHE PS PAR AG, ASTRAZENECA PLC and NOVARTIS AG. It holds around 45 positions (the ten largest ≈ 77%), spreading risk so no single holding decides your outcome. By geography it is weighted towards ~41.9% Switzerland, ~24% United Kingdom and ~9.8% Denmark. Its heaviest sectors are ~99.9% Health Care. A focused fund like this is typically held as a smaller 'satellite' position around a broader core — a way to lean into one theme, not usually a portfolio's only holding. 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 Luxembourg and UCITS-regulated, a European standard built to protect everyday investors and trades in EUR. On the standard KID risk scale it is rated 6 out of 7 and its price has swung about 18% over the past year — a gauge of how much the value moves, not a judgement of quality. It launched in 2007. 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 Xtrackers.)

About this fund

What you own

The MSCI Europe Health Care Capped 20-35 Index index is the benchmark this fund aims to copy. By holding it, this fund gives you a stake in around 45 companies across Europe in a single purchase.

Dividends

The fund automatically reinvests dividends back into itself, so your holding grows without cash payouts.

Read more

Rolling the dividends straight back in means your money compounds automatically, with nothing for you to reinvest by hand. The flip side is there is no cash income; the growth simply shows up as a higher fund value. Note that reinvested dividends can still be taxable in some countries even though you never receive the cash — the rules depend on where you live.

How it works

The fund actually buys every share in the index it tracks (full replication).

Read more

Owning every holding keeps things transparent — what is in the index is what the fund actually owns. It can be a touch costlier to run for indexes with thousands of tiny positions, since the fund has to buy and maintain them all. There is no swap bank involved, so there is no extra “what if the partner fails” question to weigh.

Cost

0.00%Yearly fee (TER)

The yearly running cost of the fund, shown as a % of your money. €0.20 per €100 a year at 0.20%. Lower is cheaper.

Read more

It is skimmed quietly from inside the fund a little each day, so you never get a bill — but it drags on your return every year you hold. On a broad index ETF it is usually a small fraction of a percent; the gap between a cheap and a pricey fund looks tiny on day one but compounds over decades, which is why it is worth a glance.
