PACW trading since 18 Feb ‘25 according to LSE @Gandalf
So YTD is not actually YTD
1m performance -4.98 vs -5.08, so similar
Ok thanks for clarifying
Won’t there be tax implications with the dividend if one opts for this instead of accumulating version? Secondly, one has to manually reinvest or can it be automatically done?

As long as all your dividends come from ETF’s within your ISA or SIPP - no tax implications and no paperwork.
-
If Autoinvest is turned on then dividends are automatically reinvested once they are £1 or more per payment - if they are less than £1 per payment then they’ll be invested with any new money you put into this portfolio.

If Autoinvest is turned off then you decide when to invest your dividends.

@Pinch , thank you. Wondering if one turns on autoinvest, then I assume this will be equivalent to the accumulating version while saving expenses. I suspect it won’t be perfect accumulating version equivalent due to not immediate reinvestment but could be cheaper option to similar global accumulating etf from other provider who charge at least 0.12%?
Hi,
I’m not sure which expenses you mean as all purchases are free of charge (commission). Unless you mean fund charges?
In general I think that you worry too much about minute details here however, if this is of big importance for you why not use an accumulation ETF?
Possibly… or you could go ahead and build your own version and see if you can do it cheaper.
