About
This Invesco Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) seeks to mirror the net total return performance of the MSCI World Index, its designated benchmark, after accounting for all applicable fees. The MSCI World Index is constructed to assess equity market performance across developed economies, incorporating both large and mid-sized companies. It broadly represents about 85% of the free float-adjusted market capitalization within each country it covers. To achieve its investment objective, the fund primarily holds a portfolio of stocks, which typically generates most of its returns, though these holdings may not be identical to those in the benchmark index. The fund also utilizes unfunded swap agreements. These are contracts where one or more authorized counterparties agree to compensate the fund for any difference between the index's return and the return of the fund's physical stock holdings. This synthetic replication method aims for a more precise and stable alignment with the index's performance than could generally be attained through direct physical stock ownership alone. While the fund's primary goal is to replicate the standard net total return index, its swap contracts refer to an optimized version of the index that incorporates enhanced Withholding Tax benefits. As a result, the ETF's performance before any charges are applied is anticipated to exceed that of the conventional net return index. To assist with covering some of the fund's operational expenses, the Manager may receive an annual contribution of up to 0.08% of the swap's notional value from the swap providers. This contribution does not impact the fund’s net asset value (NAV) and does not constitute an additional expense for investors. This ETF is managed passively. Investing in this fund means acquiring shares in an index-tracking vehicle rather than directly owning the individual securities held by the fund.

Is MXWO a UCITS ETF?

The top three are NVIDIA ORD (5.6%), APPLE ORD (4.8%) and MICROSOFT ORD (3.8%). MXWO's 10 largest positions make up 26.4% of the fund.
Is MXWO subject to US estate tax?
No. Because MXWO is domiciled in Ireland rather than the US, it is not a US-situs asset, so US estate tax does not apply to it. US-listed ETFs held directly can be taxed at up to 40% above $60,000 when they pass to your family.
How are US dividends taxed inside MXWO?
The US withholds 15% on dividends from the US shares the fund holds, and that tax is paid inside the fund. You cannot claim it as a Foreign Tax Credit in India.

Units held for more than 24 months are long-term and taxed at 12.5% without indexation; units held for 24 months or less are taxed at your income-tax slab rate. The gain is worked out in rupees, so the currency move counts.
How has MXWO performed?
MXWO's price is up 17.5% over the past year and up 72.7% over five years. These figures are price change only and exclude dividends; past performance does not guarantee future returns.
How is MXWO different from a US-listed ETF?
MXWO is domiciled in Ireland rather than the US. That keeps it outside US estate tax, and dividend withholding on its US shares is 15%, paid inside the fund, instead of the 25% withheld on a US-listed ETF. The 25% can generally be claimed as a credit in India; the 15% cannot. Capital gains on both are taxed the same way in India.
