Does anyone have any ideas on how to construct a VTI Equivalent here on IE? I am already 70% VUAG. I am going increase the S&P 500 to 80% and then was thinking 10% mid caps and 10% small caps…does this sound about right? Thanks

@Gandalf  
Morning 😀 👋,  
At the moment there doesn’t seem to be a single UCITS ciompliant ETF out there for us in the UK.

I found this breakdown of VTI - hope this helps.

[https://etfdb.com/etf/VTI/#charts](https://etfdb.com/etf/VTI/#charts)

Out of the charts on this website I think this is the one to look at:

So, you would need something to cover each section:  
Large: S&P 500  
Mid: Russell 2000 maybe  
Small Cap: Small Cap ETF

However, there may be an overlap as different indices do define bands (Large, Mid, Small etc.) differently.

I can’t seem to find anything for Micro Cap though so you would need to bump up the other sectors a little bit.

Maybe like this?

| Index | ETF | % of total |
| --- | --- | --- |
| S&P 500 | VUAG | 90% |
| Russell 2000 | RTWP, XRSG, R2S2 | 8% |
| iShares MSCI USA Small Cap | CUS1 | 2% |

Good video about this topic - start at 3:40 minutes

Good write-up can be found here:

> As a European or UK Investor, you would have to slightly adjust the way to construct a typical two, three or four fund Portfolio using UCITS ETFs.

Let us know how you get on, please.

That’s really interesting…  
Thanks for that  
There’s a new S&p400 mid cap fund with IE so I may do 10% in that and 90% VUAG
