Amundi Core FTSE 100 Swap UCITS ETF Dist

Amundi Core FTSE 100 Swap UCITS ETF Dist is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Amundi, traded under the ticker 100D (ISIN LU1650492256). 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 across its target market. Rather than a manager picking stocks, it simply replicates the FTSE 100 Total Return Index GBP index — the passive, low-cost approach, and its largest holdings include HSBC HOLDINGS PLC, ASTRAZENECA GBP and SHELL PLC GBP. Geographically it leans ~100% United Kingdom. By industry it concentrates most in ~27.6% Financials and ~13.9% Industrials. 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 0.14% a year — about €14 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. It tracks its index through a swap agreement rather than owning every holding (synthetic replication); it is domiciled in Luxembourg and UCITS-regulated, a European standard built to protect everyday investors and trades in GBP. Its price has swung about 12% over the past year, which describes how much its price tends to move rather than whether it is good. 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 Amundi.)
