Xtrackers Switzerland UCITS ETF 1C

Xtrackers Switzerland UCITS ETF 1C is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Xtrackers, traded under the ticker 0DZH (ISIN LU0943504760). One trade buys a whole basket of holdings, so your money is spread out instead of riding on a single 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, focused on the European market. It follows the Solactive Swiss Large Cap index (NTR) 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, NOVARTIS AG and NESTLE SA. With about 23 holdings (the ten largest ≈ 83.5%), your money is diversified rather than concentrated in a handful of names. By geography it is weighted towards ~100% Switzerland. Its heaviest sectors are ~40.4% Health Care and ~19.5% 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 0.3% a year — about €30 a year on a €10,000 holding, taken automatically from the fund; counting the trading costs inside the fund, the all-in figure is around 0.31%. 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 CHF. On the standard KID risk scale it is rated 5 out of 7 and its price has swung about 12.3% over the past year, which describes how much its price tends to move rather than whether it is good. It launched in 2013. As with any investment, its value can go down as well as up, and past performance is not a guide to future results. (Fund data sourced from Xtrackers.)
