## Summary

iShares MSCI World Screened UCITS ETF Accum Shs Unhedged USD is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from iShares, launched in 2018. It tracks the MSCI World Screened Index — about 1,300 large and medium-sized companies in 23 developed countries, around 70% of it in the US. You buy and sell it through a share-dealing account or platform during stock-market hours, like a share. Its ongoing charge is 0.25% a year — about £25 a year on every £10,000 invested, taken from the fund's value rather than billed to you. Income from its investments is reinvested inside the fund, so it shows up as a rising price rather than cash paid to you. It is currency-hedged: it aims to remove most of the effect of exchange-rate moves against the pound.

Latest close: **$13.82** (30/09/2026).
