MSCI World Index UCITS ETF

Post by frugal »

Hi,

Why not to use MSCI World Index UCITS ETF for stocks part?

Thank you!

Generally global or foreign stock funds give you added currency risk. So in an orthodox (no pun)  PP we eschew those sorts of funds or keep it to maybe 5% of the 25%. That said, I don't really have a major issue with using a global index fund and in some countries I would probably encourage it.
