Frequently asked questions
“Acc” stands for accumulating. This means any income the fund earns (such as dividends) is automatically reinvested back into the fund, rather than being paid out to you. The number of shares you hold stays the same, but the value of each share can increase over time as that income is reinvested, helping your investment grow through compounding.
By contrast, an Income (“Inc”) option pays out any income the fund generates to investors, usually on a regular basis (for example, quarterly or semi‑annually). In this case, the number of shares and their price are not boosted by reinvested income, as the returns are distributed to you as cash instead.
In short, Acc units focus on reinvestment and long-term growth, while Inc units focus on providing a regular income stream.
An index tracks the performance of a group of investments.
For example, the MSCI World Index follows large companies across developed markets worldwide. If those companies’ share prices rise, the index goes up—if they fall, the index goes down.
Investors use indexes to quickly see how markets are performing.
This ETF may be available via platforms that offer regular investment (savings) plans, allowing you to invest set amounts over time. Availability and terms vary by platform.
Global indices differ on the countries and companies they invest in. They can focus on developed markets or emerging markets — or invest in both. They can invest in different sizes of companies such as large-size, mid-size, and small-size.
This article explains the difference between the MSCI World Index and another global industry benchmark, the FTSE All-World Index.
Benefits
Growth potential: Growth potential. Stocks can help your investments grow over time, helping to maintain their value against inflation.
Diversification: Investing in different countries, sectors, and companies helps to spread risk across markets that don’t always move in sync. When one area is slowing down, another may be growing. That may help reduce volatility compared to investing in a narrow area.
Broad opportunities: International investing opens your portfolio to opportunities outside of your home country.
Risks
Capital risk: Like any investment, stocks may go down as well as up, and you may not get back the amount invested.
Other risks: Investing in other countries may present risks such as political, economic, or regulatory risk. (This tends to be a greater risk in emerging markets versus developed markets, which is where the MSCI World Index is focused.). Please note that an investment cannot be made into an index.
There are two ways that ETFs can replicate the performance of an index: physical or swap-based replication.
Physical replication: These ETFs track an index by buying and holding a portfolio of securities that closely matches the index’s composition (either by holding all of the same securities or holding a sample that’s expected to perform similarly to the actual index).
Swap-based replication: These ETFs also buy and hold a basket of securities, but not necessarily those of the index being tracked. These ETFs aim to deliver the index performance through a financial agreement, called a swap contract, provided by an investment bank that is contractually obliged to match index performance. This contractual agreement means that the swap-based approach is likely to be able to track an index more closely than a physical approach.
The Invesco MSCI World UCITS ETF Acc is a swap-based ETF. Learn more about this approach.
