Personally I stopped buying US ETFs about an year ago. All my new investments since then have been in SPDR ACWI or WEBG. This was because of estate tax drama. Over time I will also convert the older VT positions into UCITS.
I also have a two broker strategy since then and have IB + Swiss broker. This was for broker diversification.
At this moment , I don’t know if having US broker or Swiss broker would make much difference to mitigate/manage US govt related risks. Are you thinking from sanctions perspective ?
I only had a small position in VT, which I then liquidated last November and bought instead:
Right now, I would probably feel a lot more uncomfortable had I moved everything to VT last year. The 0.1% underpeformance is something I accept gladly.
I’m honestly worried about the US situation and being almost fully invested in VT. I used to follow the “VT and chill” approach… but now the chill is gone… and I have no idea what to do. It seems like the consensus here is now FWRA, right? But I’m also scared of selling all my VT for FWRA because I feel so naive
