The best FTSE All-World UCITS ETFs
A FTSE All-World fund is the closest thing to owning the entire global stock market in one purchase: roughly 3,600 companies across developed and emerging markets. Vanguard's VWCE (Xetra, euros) and VWRP (London, pounds) are the same fund on different exchanges, so the right one is usually whichever trades in the currency you already hold.
- Cheapest: VWCE at 0.22% a year (Vanguard FTSE All-World UCITS ETF).
- Hands-off pick: VWCE, dividends reinvested automatically.

How this ranking works
Funds are ranked by annual fee (TER), cheapest first, using the same live dataset that powers the rest of TickerCompare; returns are total returns converted to USD and refresh throughout the trading day. Funds tracking the same index are near-interchangeable, so we treat cost as the main tiebreaker and flag dividend policy so you can match the fund to how you invest. This is educational information, not financial advice.
