The Invesco FTSE All-World UCITS ETF invests in the physical securities of the FTSE All-World Index. This is known as physical replication.
A physical ETF tracks the index by buying and holding a portfolio of securities that matches the index’s composition. A physical ETF can replicate an index through sampling or full replication.
The ETF holds a sample of securities from the index that are expected to perform similarly to the actual index, known as sampling. The objective of sampling is to replicate the index performance as closely as possible while reducing the costs that would normally be incurred when holding all the securities in the index (full replication).

With developed markets your exposure is in more established companies, which tend to have steadier growth patterns. By combining, you’re investing in the best of both worlds. However, there is a higher degree of risk than for an ETF that invests only in developed markets.
