Most cost-efficient European ETF

for some lump sum investing in V3AA (acc) once a year, utilising the 90CHF.

I have done an analysis recently. I can confirm that V3AA is the cheapest European ETFs on swiss brokers to track the global market.

• Traded in CHF (you avoid exchange fee)
• Traded on the SIX market (cheaper trading fees as foreign market)
• Accumulating (you don’t need to pay to reinvest the dividends and you avoid exchange fees on the dividends as dividends are distributed in USD)
• The TER is 0.24% which is quite low

But at the end of the day, the performance can be fairly similar to other relatively close products - there is no need to stick to that one in particular.
Below is a comparison with WDESGC.SW, hedged in Swiss francs, TER 0.18%.

Global EU-based ETFs are rather expensive, but it’s changing. Amundi Prime Global, LU2089238203 has a TER of 0.05%.

Until cheap ESG ones become available in Swiss francs, I stick to a portfolio of a few proven ETFs per region : Cheap, accumulating, listed in Zurich and in Swiss francs, like XSPX.SW, XESC.SW, XMME.SW
