Is AEJL.L accumulating or distributing?
Amundi MSCI AC Asia Pacific ex Japan UCITS ETF (AEJL.L) is an accumulating ETF, so its dividends are reinvested automatically inside the fund instead of paid out as cash.

What is the annual fee (TER) for AEJL.L?
AEJL.L has a total expense ratio (TER) of 0.45% per year. On a $10,000 holding that is roughly $45 a year, charged inside the fund rather than billed to you separately. A lower fee leaves more of the return compounding for you over time.
