Long term buy and hold Invesco MSCI World UCITS ETF Acc (SC0J) and EMSM: Invesco MSCI Emerging Markets UCITS ETF Acc?
Please evaluate my choices for ETFs
SC0J: Invesco MSCI World UCITS ETF Acc, TER 0.05%
EMSM: Invesco MSCI Emerging Markets UCITS ETF Acc, TER 0.09%
Why have I chosen these?
- Cheapest possible exposure to all world
- I control the weighting between developed and emerging. Since I have lot's of other developed stocks I intend to overweight emerging.
- Swap based structure allow the funds to avoid most withholding tax: 1.7% yearly dividends * 15% withholding tax * 80% of world equity where this tax-benefit applies = 0.2% over-performance per year compared to physical replication
- Yes, there is counter-party risk to swaps but this risk is limited to no more than 10% and very unlikely under the UCITS framework
I intend to buy and hold these funds for 40 years. Are these great choices or should I rethink?
