In plain English
UBS (Irl) ETF PLC - UBS Core MSCI World UCITS ETF Accum A Hedged GBP is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) from UBS, launched in 2025.
It tracks the DUPE - MSCI World 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 0.09% a year — about £9 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.
Global shares: Thousands of companies across many countries, held in one fund — the broadest way to own the stock market.
