Amundi MSCI World Swap UCITS ETF EUR Dist

What this fund is

Amundi MSCI World Swap UCITS ETF EUR Dist is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from Amundi, traded under the ticker EWLD (ISIN LU2655993207). 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 broadly across markets worldwide. Rather than a manager picking stocks, it simply replicates the MSCI Daily Net TR World Euro index — the passive, low-cost approach, and its largest holdings include APPLE INC, NVIDIA CORP and MICROSOFT CORP. By geography it is weighted towards ~72.3% United States, ~5.7% Japan and ~3.5% United Kingdom.

Its heaviest sectors are ~29.3% Information Technology and ~16.3% Financials. 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 0.38% a year — about €38 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 1.03% (its trailing yield). 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 EUR.

Its price has swung about 11.2% over the past year — a gauge of how much the value moves, not a judgement of quality. It launched in 2024. 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.)
